[WP] You have died. Much to your surprise, you don't find yourself in heaven or hell. Instead, you are driving along a dark desert highway, cool wind in your hair.
[ "I jolt up and grip the steering wheel tightly, I'd just witnessed the last few moments of my life yet here I am gripping the familiar steering wheel of the family car. \n\nMy wife asleep beside me in the passenger seat and our baby girl asleep in the backseat. I feel at peace and hopeful. I haven't felt this way i...

[WP] In the distant future under global tyranny, humanity has been bred to no longer be capable of sleeping. Labor has increased exponentially to keep up with the wildly inflated population. Sleeping pills are contraband and have become a black market currency to anyone not of ultra wealth.
[ "\"Last I dreamed, I dreamt I was flying. Did you know that? That you can fly in your dreams? You can do whatever you want. In your dreams, that is,\" Oxo said, counting the pills. Thirty two. Three less than they'd agreed on. He didn't even have to look up to tell that the bastard was trying to give him the slip. ...

[WP] The demon tells you that no mortal's soul is worth what you are asking for. You respond, "I'm not offering you my soul, for this I will give you my love."
[ "I'm dead serious, and my offer is sincere. The demon senses this, and I can see his well concealed shock. His fierce, amber eyes act as magnifying glasses, allowing me to study his emotions as they come and go like clouds: shock, slight disbelief, and finally, a tinge of wariness, combined with a touch of longing....

[WP] Reincarnation exists and people try to speedrun life, with different records for different endings and goals accomplished. You’re attempting to beat the record for the hardest run: world domination
[ "When you die, you come back with... inklings... of what came before. Faint traces of memory, skills lost before you lived again. \n\nThis time, I can't help but think I'm meant to rule the world; modest, I know, but I can't shake the feeling. Therefore, it must be true.\n\nThese were the thoughts of a baby, just b...

[WP] The world's top scientists have discovered an extreme form of space travel, which they've called "leaping". A leap allows a ship and its crew to travel immense distances in a random direction via teleportation. The first manned instance is scheduled for today, and you're part of that crew.
[ "*1959, secret Operation Paperclip military facility*\n\nCorporal FitzRobert smiled at him. It wasn’t a kind smile. Ziegler had known these men for years now.

[WP] You accidentally discover glitches in reality which you begin to exploit.
[ "Wait what, was my first reaction when the glitch occurred. It was nothing much, just a small 'stop' that lasted a split second. Everything continued where it left off. It could have easily been an illusion.\n\nBut then, there were more. Reality was like a broken record, stopping and starting more and more frequent...

[WP] Mythical creatures are real. In ages past, in order to save them from knights, Merlin sent them all into a different dimension, where humanity never existed, only in myths. Portals have opened up between dimensions, and humanity has elected you to be the emissary between the two worlds.
[ "\"This ... is madness,\" I say, cowering behind my desk.\n\n\"George calm down! for christ's sake, you won,\" Dave says while his large figure leans forward above the wooden desk.\n\n\"Christ might as well show up!\"\n\n\"George you are the number one negotiator in the entire world ... have some fucking confidence...

[WP] With your ability, you have gained immortality! Sort of. You have to transfer your old age to someone young.
[ "I look down at the little newborn, curled up in the incubator. A baby girl, only two hours old. The wires and life support dominating her tiny frame, monitoring the irregular heartbeats and providing her with life-sustaining nutrients.\n\nAfter 22 hours of labor, she was brought into this world. And after ten minu...

[WP] Radioactive fallout has devastated the earth. Animals and plants have all gone extinct with the exception of one human. Just as hope was almost lost, two beings appeared in front of her. God and the Devil. They want to restart the universe in their own way, but they need a third opinion.
[ "\"I told you\" said the angel with black wings protruding from his crimson red suit, \"I told you they'd mess it all up.\" \"Everything would have been fine, Lucifer, if you hadn't thought it necessary to give them knowledge of Good and Evil.\" The man in the white robes and a long, curly white beard, responded pa...

[WP] Of all the places you expected to end up after death, Hell wasn't it. You are taken to meet Lucifer himself, but he looks troubled. "I'm sorry for what happened to you in life. It was wrong, even by our standards. I can give you a chance for revenge, or you can simply live here comfortably."
[ "I was literally the very last person on Earth that I thought would end up in Hell. I had done a very important thing after all, and my legacy would last for thousands of years, long after i was dead. But here i was, standing at the fiery gates instead of the pearly ones. Oh well, obviously I must’ve screwed up, ev...

[WP] Singing a hit pop song at a local wishing well, someone has accidentally sold their soul (and a few pennies and dimes) for a kiss. The demon wasn't looking for this, but the collection seemed too easy to pass up. It just needed to figure out what a kiss was, exactly.
[ "\"And this is craAAAAAHHHH!!\" The girl collapsed on the grass around the well and I slowly ascended from below. A smile was plastered across my face, unable to contain myself for this deal. The first sight, and I knew it was real.\n\n*Pennies and dimes for a kiss!* That's the wish she said she'd trade her eternal...

[WP] You were the elite amongst the grim reapers, now the butt of all jokes. You were asked to pick up the soul of a 5-year old girl, practically an everyday routine. Upon arrival, you introduced yourself as Death, but the girl unfortunately misheard that, and she replied “hello mr... Dave”.
[ "Bemused by her innocence, you decide to play along. Yes, I'm Dave. I've come to collect you.\n\nWhere are we going, Mr. Dave? She doesn't seem the least bit frightened by your gaunt features, nor of the scythe you carried. I'm taking you to a better place. Your face is the portrait of a deep sadness that transcend...

[WP] Over the past few years, you have felt a presence following you until one morning you bring your half-wake self into the bathroom. When you look up into the mirror from washing your face, you see your reflection, only it's covered in fresh scars and barely manages to say, "Help me..."
[ "\"What?\" I asked, but it was already gone. I could have sworn that someone else was in my mirror. I studied my face gently, smoothing out my face looking for any of the scars I had just witnessed. \n\n\"Hello?\" I asked again, looking deeply into the mirror. Nothing. I shook it off. I was exhausted. Clearly I was...

[WP] Christmas comes around again, and you ask for the same gift you ask for every year from your hospital bed. "Give me death." You awake on Christmas day, and as your eyes open you see a cloaked figure stood by your bed. "Not what I meant dammit"
[ "\"HEY\", Death said, in a way that wasn't so much speaking as it was appearing into my brain.\n\n\"This isn't what I meant, man! I'm awake! I'm alive still. I'm alive aren't I?\" I clenched my hand with the catheter in it and felt pain. *'Great, still pain'*.\n\n\"YOU SHOULD LEARN TO BE SPECIFIC WITH YOUR WISHES. ...
