Unknown Place 

Unknown Time

Otto POV

The day I died have been just like any other day. Covert Operation, Shore leave Then Covert Operation again until THAT faithful night when I was KIA. But now, I am in a different place, a strange, unfamiliar place that I have never seen before. The whole place in front of me looked like some sort of laboratory.

I feel disoriented and confused, but strangely curious as well. Where am I, exactly? And how did I get here? That is when I recognize that I was suspended in some sort of liquid. I began to look around me and saw that there were metal walls surrounding me except for the front where I could see a clear glass panel. 

On the other side of the glass panel, I can see a couple of scientist-looking people, or eggheads (as I like to call them) typing away into their computers. And it looks like the eggheads are having a conversation with each other right now and not paying me any attention. But I can't hear any of their conversations right now. The only thing I could hear right now is muffled voices.

That is when it suddenly dawned on me. Have I not been killed all this time? Had the Russians Captured and healed me so they could use me as one of their guinea pig for their unethical experiment? 

I try to move but I can't feel any of my body. Except for my head but there seems to be an oxygen mask covering my nose and mouth, restricting my breathing. Dizziness rushes through me as I attempt to lift my arms to remove the mask, but they do not respond. Panic consumes me as I realize that I am more than likely paralyzed. But then, However...

[Viable Avatar Found]

A text suddenly materializes in my vision I stare at the text in disbelief. What does it mean? Viable Avatar Found? I try to make sense of it as best as I can, considering the circumstances. Could it be some sort of message from the scientists on the other side? Or is it something else entirely? I feel my heart rate increase as I try to process what this could mean for me.

The message itself was akin to a hologram, a blue box of text that made me question my sanity as a whole. Suddenly, I feel an inexplicable sensation throughout my body as if something was happening to me. It felt like a million electric shocks were passing through me, but oddly enough, there was no pain. 

[Avatar Bonding Complete]

[Avatar Has Successfully Bond With The Systems Forces]

Huh??? As the messages continued to materialize in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a sense of dread mixed with intrigue. What is this system that I have seemingly bonded with? And what does it mean for me? But then more text appears in front of me.

[Congratulation Avatar You Have Been Chosen By The System Forces To Become Its Avatar. What Is The System Forces you might a. Well I'm glad you asked]

[The System Forces is a New primordial cosmic force that allows its avatar to have a gamer system that operates on video game logic specifically like an RPG MMO game. 

This system provides the avatar with a wide range of abilities, including leveling up, skill acquisition, and even character customization. The avatar gains experience points and currency by defeating enemies, completing quests, and exploring different areas. 

As the avatar gains experience points, they can level up and unlock new abilities and skills. The system also provides the avatar with a status screen that displays their health, mana, and other vital stats. The avatar can use these stats to strategize and plan their battles with enemies. 

The System Forces also allows the avatar to customize its character by changing its appearance, and equipment. The System allowed its Avatar to have multiple classes. Each class has its own unique abilities and skills, allowing the avatar to have all specialized roles at the same time, such as a tank/healer combo or more.

The avatar can also acquire different weapons and armor through a specialized item shop. These items can be upgraded and enchanted to increase their power and effectiveness in battle. 

Overall, the System Forces is a powerful force that provides its avatar with a multitude of options and opportunities to become stronger and more skilled. With this system, the avatar can conquer challenges and defeat any powerful opponent with ease to become the ultimate hero or in your case anti-hero in the world. 

Like the Speed Force of The DC universe or the Phoenix Force of the Marvel universe, the System Forces is a fundamental force of the universe with immense power. It is not something that can be controlled or manipulated by mortals, but it does choose its avatars carefully. The chosen avatar must possess certain qualities such as courage, determination, and a strong will to succeed. The avatar must also be able to adapt quickly to new situations and think strategically in battles.

The System Forces is not without its drawbacks, however. If the avatar dies in battle, they may lose experience points, skills, or even levels. The avatar must also manage their resources carefully, making sure to balance their use of health, mana, and other abilities. Additionally, the avatar may face powerful enemies that are difficult to defeat, requiring them to level up and gain more skills before attempting to take them down.

Despite these challenges, the System Forces is a powerful ally for the avatar, providing them with the tools they need to become a legendary hero. Whether they use their powers for good or evil is up to the avatar, but one thing is certain: the System Forces will always be there to guide them on their journey.]

I couldn't believe what I was reading. Was this some kind of dream? Or was there really a primordial cosmic force that had chosen me to become its avatar? I had so many questions, but before I could even formulate them, more texs appeared in front of me.

[Do you want to check your stats? Y or N]

My Stats? I couldn't help but feel intrigued and a bit nerdy at the same time by this new development. This must be referring to my health, mana, and other vital stats that were mentioned earlier. I decided to answer “Y” to see what kind of stats I had.

Huh? As I read through my stats, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by all of the information in front of me. It was like I had been given a whole new identity, with unique abilities and strengths that I never imagined having before.

As I looked through my stats, I started to notice something strange. Specifically, regarding what the System said about my Race, I notice that The System said here that I am a Human/Czarnians Hybrid. The name Czarnians sounds familiar...like I have read something about them a long time ago. And reading through my Stats I noticed that I have a perk. According to my stats, my hybrid nature gives me enhanced physical strength, endurance, durability, and regeneration thanks to my Czarnian DNA. 

Huh...that's a pretty neat perk. But it was then reading through the next line of text that make me do a double take and feel uneasy.

(Occupation: Lad Experiment)

I was part of Project Cadmus?, a secret scientific research division of the United States government dedicated to countering the power of…metahumans…in the world, particularly the members of the…Justice League… As a result, I was… created? by Project Cadmus And have been subjected to numerous experiments and alien enhancements that have increased my physical abilities and granted me unique powers.

Cadmus…, another familiar name but it was the next name after that gave me pause. Specifically The WORD Justice League. Bloody Hell...I am in the DC universe, am I? I couldn't believe it. It was like being in a dream, but it felt so real. And that is when the realization hit me like a Tomahawk missile.

I have died and was reborn as an Avatar with abilities and stats that could rival even the greatest heroes and villains of the DC universe. As a child, I was a fan of comic books Specifically of the superhero variety, so being in this universe was both exciting and...terrifying.
