All Chapters of Reborn to take over the stage : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Ethan stared at the door.For the first time in years, he was afraid to open one.Not because he expected a monster.Not because he expected another version of himself.Not because he believed someone was waiting to attack him.He was afraid because the words on the door had touched something deeper than memory.Show me who you were before you became Ethan.He reached for the handle.His hand stopped.What did that even mean?He had always believed his story began with his birth.Then he learned about Evan.Then the first Ethan.Then the Origin.Then the Source.Every discovery had pushed his beginning further backward.But Sarah had said something different.Your grandfather did not create you.You did.Ethan looked at the door again.A thought entered his mind.Maybe the question wasn't who he had been before Ethan.Maybe the question was whether there had ever been a version of him that wasn't Ethan at all.He opened the door.White light swallowed him.When it faded, Ethan found h

The house became silent.Nobody moved.Nobody spoke.The words remained inside their minds.ONE CHOICE REMAINS.Ethan held his daughter closer.She rested her head against his chest as though nothing had happened.Outside, the shadow covered the moon.Then it disappeared.The stars returned.Everything looked normal again.But Ethan knew better.Something had changed.He looked at his grandfather.What choice?The old man stared at him for several seconds.Then he looked toward Elena.She lowered her eyes.Ethan's chest tightened.You both know.Neither answered.Jason stepped forward.Mom?Elena sighed.There are things we hoped you would never have to know.Ethan shook his head.That sentence has followed me my entire life.He looked at his grandfather.No more secrets.The old man nodded slowly.Then perhaps you are finally ready.He walked toward the center of the room.When we discovered the first consciousness, we believed we had found the beginning of life itself.Ethan listene

The voice beneath the earth was barely louder than a whisper.Yet everyone heard it.Now I can finally begin.Ethan stood beside the window, his daughter in his arms.Nobody moved.Jason was the first to speak.Begin what?No answer came.Rose closed her eyes.The strange golden lights that had appeared across the world were still visible through the windows, drifting above cities, villages, oceans, and forests.They weren't stars.They were choices.Millions of tiny points of possibility appearing wherever a human being stood at a crossroads.Rose opened her eyes.I can't see what happens next.Ethan looked at her.You said that before.This is different.How?Rose looked frightened.Before, the future disappeared.Now there are too many futures.Ethan stared outside.How many?Rose shook her head.All of them.The room fell silent.His grandfather slowly approached the window.Then it has started.Ethan turned.What has started?The old man looked toward the ground.The thing we wer

The words remained in Ethan’s mind long after the white light vanished.In every one of them…You disappear.No one moved.The ancient world had become strangely quiet. The millions of golden lights that had once filled the sky were still there, but they no longer moved randomly. They had arranged themselves into patterns.Thousands of circles.Thousands of roads.Thousands of versions of the same family.And in every one of them, Ethan was missing.Jason was the first to speak.What does disappear mean?Rose closed her eyes.I don't know.That answer frightened Ethan more than if she had known.He looked at his daughter.She was still in his arms, calm as if nothing unusual had happened.Then she looked toward the sky.Daddy disappears.Ethan forced a smile.I'm right here.She touched his chest.Now.Ethan's smile faded.What do you mean?She looked at him with those impossibly knowing eyes.Not always.Elena stepped forward.Maybe the visions aren't predicting his death.Rose opene

The voice came from inside the tower.You finally brought her home.Ethan tightened his grip around his daughter’s hand.I didn't bring her anywhere.The ancient woman smiled.That is what makes her different.The tower trembled.A deep vibration moved through the city of unlived lives.One by one, the possibilities stopped moving.Every face turned toward Ethan’s daughter.She looked at them without fear.Who are you?The ancient woman lifted the small golden light.I was the first person who remembered someone who was gone.Ethan stared at her.The first world.The old woman.The child who died.The memory that created the first golden light.The woman nodded.Yes.You are her.I am the one who came after her.Ethan frowned.That doesn't make sense.It does if you understand what memory became.She held the golden light closer.The first memory created the first light.The first light created the first possibility.The first possibility created the first choice.And every choice cre
