Oof! <inserts Roblox dieing sounds>
Do people drive cars out of TVs these days..?
My name is Nadina Hearth and I'm a healthy 17 year old girl... or at least I was... before that incident took place. I was orphaned at the age of 5 due to some.. complications.
On one of their many business trips, my parent's plane crashed, resulting in their death. Although I rarely ever saw my parents, I still yearned for their love, so I was quite depressed when I received the news. But in the end, all they ever did was work, work and more work, so I never saw them that often in the first place. Even when they died, they never fulfilled their role as 'parents' and I was sent to an orphanage along with all the money they had saved up before their death.
Maybe because I inherited my parent's IQ, I always ended up at the top of my grade even though I never bothered to study...
Anyways, back to my story! I woke up like it was any other day and went to school like a normal person. After school ended, I went to my part-time job at a small restaurant across my house and came home back after my shift ended.
When I went back home, I ran and threw myself onto the couch and turned on Flixnet. While I was in the middle of watching [Violet Evergarden], I suddenly heard some kind of noise. I'm pretty sure it sounded like a honking sound that came out of a truck?
I turned around and glared outside of the window to get a good look at which a**hole interrupted my precious anime time, but I was just greeted with a quiet and deserted street. When I turned towards the TV once more, I saw something that I'd probably remember for the rest of my (not so long) life.
Thinking back, I probably should have noticed that the TV screen was getting brighter even though I never turned up the lighting.
A truck, yes, A TRUCK POPPED OUT OF MY FREAKING TV LIKE TO WAS THE MOST NORMAL THING THAT COULD HAPPEN AND RAN ME OVER.
'What the hell?! Could've at least let me finish watching that episode!' was the last thought that popped into my head before I died.
--------------------
"Ugh.. my head hurts like hell... wait.... WHAT THE HECK?! I'm alive? WOOHOO, THIS MISSY IS PROBABLY THE FIRST TO EVER SURVIVE GETTING RUN OVER BY A TRUCK AND MAKE IT OUT ALIVE! If I make it into the book of world records I'd earn so much money that I'd get to eat a buffet for ever meal for the rest of my li------"
"Ahem! Sorry to break your happy delusions, but you died."
I heard a majestically beautiful voice come out from behind me and I turned my head to see who it was. There stood an insanely beautiful woman who looked like a goddes---
"That's because I am a goddess"
"Wha--?"
Okay, let me get this straight...
So there is an insanely beautiful woman, who unfortunately has some issues with her brain, standing in front of me. She also told me that I died... wait.. DIED?!
I looked up to see the self proclaimed goddess standing there and smiling at me, but I swear the corner of her mouth was twitching, so I suddenly got a really bad premonition.
"I'M SO SORRY!" said the goddess who just did a sliding dogeza and landed right at my feet.
"Calm down, lady! What are you sorry for?", I panicked.
"The other gods, goddesses and I made a bet and whoever lost our bet had to try to drive a vehicle from earth. I just happened to be the unlucky one so I chose to drive a truck. While driving, I might've accidentally opened a space portal that was coincidentally linked to your TV because I was really frustrated... I mean, it's not my fault they make trucks so damn hard to drive!"
"So what you're saying is that you killed me because you were driving a truck due to a lost bet? Not to mention, you also didn't have a proper licence?"
"That's exactly it!"
"Ahhh goddammit! If I was gonna die, it could've at least been in a cooler way! In the end, I didn't even survive to make it onto the world records!"
"..." That's what you're worried about?!
"So what's going to happen now? Am I going to drink some Meng Po soup, lose my memories, and get reincarnated?"
"Actually, as an apology, we can skip the memory loss part and get straight to the reincarnation! Oh, right I think I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Miranda and I am the Realmk---- I mean goddess of another world separate from Earth. I'm going to reincarnate you into the plane--- I mean world that I govern, it's called Sairale, the land of magic!" *Invisible confetti*"
"Sairale.. I think I heard of that before.. but where? Erm... whatever! It'll come to me sometime in the future! Umm, so I'm basically going to be given a new life..?"
"Yup, oh and I can grant you some wishes if you like, as an extra apology? Just take it as an invesment!"
"Invesment.. for what?"
"Ehh.. you'll see in the future!"
"Well, since you offered, I won't bother holding back on my requests!
Number one, I am quite curious as to how a 'loving family' works, so I would like it if I had one in my new life.
Number two, I would like to have an extended lifespan and a sturdier body.
Finally, I want some kind of way to contact you because you seem like a nice person to chat with if I ever get bored!"
"Okay, so, loving family, stronger vessel, and a way to keep i touch! Got it!"
"Oh, was that not too much? I was actually happy if you could just grant me one of the three, but I didn't expect you to actually give me all of them!"
"Hey, I would never go back on my promises! Well, since everything is set, I hope you have a safe trip to Sairale and I give you my blessings~"
'My blessing..? Is that a way of saying goodbye?', I wondered.
"Oh uhh, yeah, thanks! I also give you my blessings!"
'Hehe silly girl' thought Miranda as she watched the girl in front of her slowly fade away 'What a rare soul to come across.. maybe.. she's the one who can help me? Being a Realmkeeper is seriously annoying! Well, I guess having someone to talk to is better than having no one. Oh shoot, I have to get ready to request a plane transfer to... Plane 017?'
Truck sama takes another life once again!
Couldn't think of anything better than to use our plain ol' truck sama~
It kind of looks interesting. The pacing is a bit fast though. I'd also recommend trying to use less real-world items such as Netflix or Violet Evergarden. Tends to kind of take the reader out of the story from what I've noticed. I'm also not sure about that Gender Bender tag. But this is looking nice.
Waahh!! I took off that tag because I thought about it again and yeah, the cross-dressing and alternate identity parts of this novel are probably a little too insignificant to count as "Gender Bender". Other than that, thanks for the suggestion! I changed Netflix to Flixnet..... and I don't know what to do about Violet Evergarden, but this is just for the first chapter soo.... should be fine... right...? x'D
@KaPi I am kind of a fan of the badly naming things to be similar to real-world things though. Maybe something as cheesy as Gardens of Violets? Just something bad enough to get a chuckle out of. Just me.
@SovietWeeb Roses Nevergarden?
@gwenis I still like the anime. All the talk about it is making me want to go back and watch it. Although, I still think the show should've ended with Violet and the little girl that lost her mother due to cancer I think. I've always thought it would've been a more fitting ending if Violet became an adoptive mother to the little girl.
