The Adventures of Finn Delgado: Chapter 1.1

Posted by: XIII 10/07.

From what I've been told of my life by various people, most often including myself, is that it has been one of the most erratic lives of any single being. I've been born about 10 times, died at least 6 times, and have erased whole portions of it just so I could be more comfortable with my own conscience. I have made fantasy reality, and have made reality fantasy just on a whim. Why I got this power is anyone's guess, but I got it, and no one else did, so there it is. I look back now without regret really, for all the terrible things I did have already been long since done, erased, re-done, and then erased again, only for my own whims to let them happen again. This is the end of my story now, my mind has grown weary of the constant restarts and rebirths, and I face the inevitability of my own end, this time, I hope, for real. I look out on the shoreline of this land and stare into the sun, until my eyes begin to make the strange dancing patterns that mean I looked too long, and I turn with the afterimage of the sun in my vision. Making my way back to the small fishing village up the coast, that will one day become so very different, I start to reminisce about my lives, the knowledge begins to seep through into my awareness, and it's as I get back to my small dwelling in the village that I decide to write the story that will help me move on with this small, insubstantial existence.
It begins, (as i recall it) with my first real birth, on Earth, in the latter half of the 20th Century. back then everything seemed so simple, i lived a normal childhood, i went to school, i studied, went to college, then began my job as an admin asistant in a small two-man office overlooking the harbour and that's where any similarity with a real life ends. One minute, i am a normal, happy(ish) person working a normal job, the next thing i know, i've wished for something to happen and it has. I guess it has something to do with the fact that i wasn't really happy, i was disillusioned with life. I, like many of you i'm sure, was a bit depressed that my life seemed to be going nowhere fast. I was just walking along the harbour wall, eating my lunch and thinking to my self how funny it would be if something really interesting happened, like say...a metoeor crashing into the distant sea was to create a tidal wave that wiped the small town of Bullsgate out, everyone and everything wiped out in a rush of water & debris. I felt strange for a moment, like deja vu had hit home and i'd thought this before, you can, i'm sure, guess what happened, i got my wish.
