The city was alive with its usual rhythm, the hum of everyday life flowing through the ever busy streets of New York. I had just wrapped up my shift at work and was looking forward to a peaceful night watching great anime, good beer, and sleep. As the sun dipped below the horizon, it painted the rapidly darkening sky with hints of gold and orange. The streets buzzing with people heading home some in a rush others like me, walking at my own leisurely pace as my thoughts wandered to the diffrent worlds of anime, manga, and, back to my favorite anime series, Gundam.
In my mind, I replayed the battles from Gundam GQuuuuuuX especially my favorite the scene, the being where THE GUNDAM, the first white devil, appeared across time and space , hell across different reality's just to continue the beef with Char, only for my reminiscing to be pulled back to a abrupt end all from a blaring horn of a red and blue truck was charging toward me. Time slowed as realization struck. My world turned dark with my last thoughts being horror at the though that truck-kun him self cosplays.
Opening my eyes something that shouldn't be possible, I saw that I wasn't in the New York anymore. Instead, I floated in a boundless white void, serene yet the sight in front of me made it maddening. Before me hovered a entity of pure energy, its form an ever-shifting tapestry of light resembling distant stars as i felt my mind completely fail to make sense of this figure. And yet despite its abstract and mind numbing nature, it exuded power, wisdom, and warmth.
"Welcome, soul of the fallen," it spoke directly into my mind, its voice a harmonious resonance. "I am what you mortals would have dubbed me as a ROB, and I'm here to offer you three wishes to aid you on a new journey and a new life, as its a privilege gifted to all who dares to dream against the mundane ."
Stunned filled me before the countless possibility's filled my mind, I could hardly believe my ears at his words, "Can I truly wish for anything, there must be some limits right?"
"Yes, you can truly wish for anything though it must not break the harmony across the multiverse, this is your only limitation" the ROB confirmed, as amusement rang clear within his tone.
My mind whirred with the endless potential from his statement. As a devoted Gundam fan, my wishes were naturally influenced toward's the series I loved. It was a rare opportunity to forge a new life, and I needed to choose wisely, refusing to waste it on meaningless wishes.
"For my first wish," I began excitedly though resolutely, "I want a system where I can acquire un-nerfed Gundams and mobile suits from a shop. And I'll the earn shop points by completing missions through multiverse travel and missions."
The ROB's aura flickered with a glint approval. "Granted. You'll earn points from missions across different realities, which in turn will give you points allowing you to unlock various mobile suits throughout this new life. But, because some mobile suit's at full power can one shot many characters, depending on where you wish to be reborn I will adjust how much stamina, physical, and mental strength is required for each suit. "
"While understandable it is slightly disappointing Well for my secondly wish then, I wish for the Wing Zero Custom armor for free," I proclaimed, eager to possess such an iconic while not the strongest, still a very strong and versatile mobile suit.
"Accepted," the ROB said. "Its full potential as stated before will correspond with your physical and mental strength and stamina."
Honestly I saw that coming but even nerfed, its lunar titanium alloy should keep me safe from most dangers, till I'm stronger that is. For my final wish then, "I want the Newtype's mental abilities from Gundam U.C. and the coordinators physical enhancements from Gundam Seed."
"Granted," the ROB nodded. "However, certain powerful mobile suits like the ∀ Gundam, Unicorn Gundam, and 00 Qan[T] will be restricted due to their immense power and their use will be highly conditional. This applies to many mobile suits so don't think you can start throwing around mega particle canons at the slightest inconvenience. Knowing this will you still accept these conditions?"
"I do," I agreed without hesitation, as joy filled me knowing that the zero custom fell into the category ROB mentioned but I managed to get it with much less restrictions compared to what other suits might have.
"Now, choose your entry point into your desired world. My time may be endless but your time not so much, nor do I think you'd wish to say here longer than you have too."
With a quick snort of agreement at this ROB's words I began reflecting on my wishes, I lowered my head and started to think. "I've decided" i said looking up at him, "I want to enter the world of the HighSchool DxD universe around a week before cannon begins. And if you'd let me I'd like to be reincarnated as the same age as Issei Hyoudou with the appearance of Heero Yuy from Gundam Wing ."
"As you wish, however you'll arrive over Kuoh Town, descending from the atmosphere within the Wing Zero Custom to which you'll strike that iconic Endless Waltz pose, with the Zero's feathered wings out proud displaying you in all of your new found glory as you come to a hover above Khou Town, after all if you get to make a sneaky extra wish then I get to make a sneaky request too. Though I shall give you a gift since it'll force you to reveal yourself" Stated ROB with one last wink.
With a final surge of energy, the world morphed into dazzling light. Weightlessness enveloped me as I fell through time it's self. I felt my new body come into existence and soon after the atmosphere binding me to gravity, and with the night sky expanding around me. I felt the Zero Custom armor envelop me as I broke through the clouds. I arrived above Khou Town with the Zeros's systems now powered up, I felt the raw power thrumming within my new armor, a silent declaration of power known to me alone as I encroached upon my new life.
Above the now clear city I gunned my thrusters, the suit feeling like a extension of my body as I fulfilled ROB's last demand, I came to a hover above the city and under the night sky I spread my wings wide, arms extended with hands facing outwards, and my legs slightly overlapped as the moonlight hit the green gem upon my chest bathing me and the town below in radiant beams of emerald light announcing my presence to this new world.
