Chapter 2 - 2: REGRETS AND REBORN

'Why is it so dark in here anyone can you turn on the light.??' The white silhouette asked looking at the endless void and darkness.

Suddenly in the endless void small lights started to appear, twinkling brightly and then the whole void was sparkling brightly form a beautiful starfield all shining with different brightness and colour.

A figure materializing out of the countless stars. The figure raised his head and look at Hinata who was just mesmerized by at the starfield.

'Shoyo Hinata you are welcome to the way of the afterlife' The figure with his deep and hoarsen voice.

Hinata shocked by the appearance of the figure and his name suddenly being called out. Looked at the figure trying process what was going on.

'Um... who are you sir?' Hinata asked with curiosity.

The figure swiped his hand, the stars started to form into a mirror showing the burial of someone, the place was lighted with incense and various flowers place in the side of a portrait.

Hinata looking at the ceremony of a dead person got curious and wanted to ask the figure what was going on suddenly he saw his parents and siblings dress in all black clothes crying and weeping while holding his picture.

Hinata at the moment looked very shocked while looking at the mirror, he was absolutely baffled by all the things he was seeing. He looked at the figure and asked.

'What's going on and why are my parents crying with my picture?? Is this come kind of reality show promotion..??' 

The figure again swiped his hand and the pictures on the mirror change to his friends and colleagues looking sad and comforting each other. Hinata recognized every one of them. The it shifted towards a certain group of people.

'How could this happen so suddenly??'

'Don't you guys have a regular health checkup while playing?'

Hinata recognized they were his Karasuno teammates along with certain someone who seemed like she was barely holding on. He again with various questions in his mind looked at the figure now more baffled and perplexed asked.

'Again, why are they my teammates here? who died?? what is happening??'

The figure walked near Hinata and place his palm in his eyes, he felt as if something was pulling him and as he was pulled, he saw all his memories in a short clip. He understood that he was the one who had died, and all those people were mourning his death. 

He felt his heart dropped looking at all of his family and friends crying and weeping. He didn't know what to do, other than to look at his weeping family. His tears rushed down his cheeks, his silent weeping meant nothing in the endless void. He was pulled out of this space and was presented in the white void, right in front of a white figure standing between two doors. One was golden and another was Silver.

He spoke "NOW, YOU HAVE KNOW WHY YOU ARE IN HERE. SIMPLY WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT YOU DIED WHILE PLAYING YOUR FINAL GAME IN THE OLYMPICS AGAINST BRAZIL. AS FOR WHY YOU ARE HERE INSTEAD OF THE REINCARNATION CYCLE. YOUR AMBITION AND DETERMINATION TOWARD BEING THE BEST IN VOLLEYBALL DESPITE YOUR DISADVANTAGES HAS GOTTEN THE INTEREST OF OAA, THE ALMIGHT. HE WANT MORE FROM YOU AND TO FULFILL HIS AND YOUR DESIRE OF GETTING WHAT YOU WANT HAS OFFERED TO REINCARNATE YOU WHEN YOU WERE IN YOUR THIRD YEAR OF JUNIOR HIGH WITH SOME CERTAIN PERKS OR YOU CAN JUST BE SENT TO BE REINCARNATED WAITING FOR ANOTHER LIFE, YOUR CHOISE!!!"

Hinata being presented with words made him speechless but a bit happy and sober from all those crying he did. He wiped his face and looked at the white being and asked.

"Why am I being presented with such an opportunity, what must I do to get it? What is that soo called OAA wants from me?"

" BECOME MORE DANGEROUS, LETHAL, EXPLOSIVE THAT EVER BEFORE AND MOST OF ALL BE INTERESTING. THAT IS WHAT THE ALMIGHTS WANTS FROM YOU JUST BE BETTER THEN YOUR ALREADY ARE, STRIVE MORE BE HUNGRY TO DEVOUR EACH AND EVERYBODY." SAID THE WHITE FIGURE.

"SO, NOW YOU KNOW WHAT IS INFRONT OF YOU THE CHANCE. WHAT'S CHOISE HINATA SHOYO?"

Without any hesitation Hiana agreed to be reborn to his past self.

"I choose to be reborn when I was in my Middle school years!!"

The being swiped his hand, then suddenly the space started to collapse a black hole was forming right in front of him. It sucked Hinata inside twisting his astral body and collapsing into nothingness.

<<<

When he opened his eyes, the ceiling was too familiar.

His room.

His old room.

Posters of pro players he'd already played against. A calendar that read: March 3rd, 2012.

His heart stopped.

He bolted to the mirror.

The reflection staring back at him was younger — smaller — still missing a few inches of height he hadn't earned yet.

"No way…"

He was back.

The realization hit him in waves. Third year of middle school. Just weeks away from his last tournament before high school. The same one where his team would get crushed in the first round by Kitagawa Daiichi. The match that started everything.

Except this time, he remembered.

Every jump. Every mistake. Every game.

And as if fate hadn't already thrown enough at him…

Hinata grinned, a wild fire in his chest.

"I get to jump again," he whispered.

Not just physically. But toward a future even brighter than before.

"Hinataaaa! You're late again!"

His teammate's voice snapped him out of his thoughts. Same gym. Same dusty ball. Same gym shorts too tight at the waist.

But everything had changed.

This time, I won't lose in the first round.

This time, I'll reach the top—faster.

This time… I'll spike through fate itself.
