I stood and stared at the machine . " What will this do?" i asked into the void .

/ it will decide what perks you get and what you reincarnate into/ G.o.d answered . I looked closely at the slot machine . It's covered in curvy and jagged letters that I couldn't understand . It had three rings that would spin if i pulled the lever . One red that had images of things on it ranging from an beetle to a human image . The middle was white and bore more wierd letters . And last but not least the green ring .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

It had symbols that looked like they belonged to the elements . A flame, a water drop, wind waves, a mountain, and two seperate dots . one was white in the middle and the other completely black .

I slowly reached toward the lever my hand shaking a little . " I hope i don't get a c.r.a.ppy reincarnation . " I pleaded in my heart . I finally grasped it, and with it my resolve .

with as much strength as i had I yanked that lever . The rings began to spin at a near blinding speed . The images all blurred and mixed . The machine began to glow red . Soon the rings slowed . The Red ring stopped on what i saw was a lizard . The white stopped on a strange symbol that was held inside a circle . And the green one stopped on the flame symbol .

/ Ohhhhhh . I haven't seen a Salamander of flame in a long time . Been a millenia if i recall . You have quite a bit of luck on you to get that one . Not to mention your bloodline perk . Gluttony . /

" Salamander, Fire element, GLUTTONY ! What does this even mean!" i shouted . . . . The voice sighed . / It means you'll become an extremely powerful fire elemental with the ability to gain power and perks depending on what you eat . If you eat a powerful thing, you gain some of its power . since you're a flame elemental anything you burn is technically turned into food . . . . . still with me/ " Y-yeah" i said . he continued . / the only thing is that where you're going salamanders of any kind are viewed as near inept, most don't survive . The rest is up to you . Have fun in your next life . (chuckle) Oh and try not to die . I'd prefer not to see you for a while//

I hear a whistling noise like steam pouring out of a kettle and quickly turn toward the sound . The machine behind me bursts into flames and the images and symbols that were chosen leap from the rings and soar to my chest . " It Burns!" I scream . The feeling of agonizing pain, the burning, itching sensation as the symbols engrave themselves onto my chest . Suddenly a sensation like my body was being stabbed by thousands of needles covers me . Scales begin to grow out of my skin and I begin to shrink at an insane speed . My bones groan and my hair falls being replaced by red and gold scaley horns . My body s.h.i.+nes like a small sun . I grow small black claws instead of nails . My face extends till i have a lizards maw filled with white razor sharp teeth . My eyes become slits surrounded by an iris like a rainbow coated in gold powder .

Then almost like a mother embracing a child an egg forms around my lizard form, its color that of gold with crimson veins in the shape of flames . And finally I descend into a deep slumber grateful for the escape from the pain and cursing that d.a.m.ned reaper for not giving me a warning .
