Ragna the Bloodedge: A POV Transformation Story

You're sitting at the edge of your bed, dim evening light filtering through the blinds as you adjust the controller in your hands, the TV screen in front of you. BlazBlue. You've been playing for hours, captivated by the world, the characters, especially one - Ragna the Bloodedge. Suddenly, you feel a tingling sensation, starting from your fingertips, coursing through your veins like liquid electricity. You glance down at your hands, seeing them change, distorting and reshaping before your eyes. Once soft and slender, they're now becoming larger, becoming more masculine with thick and strong fingers, calloused from thousands of battles fought. Your body starts to stretch and expand, your bones aching as they reform. As if an unseen force, your hair lengthens and turns stark white. You run a hand through it, shocked to find it coarse and jarringly long. You wince as a sudden, intense pain erupts in your right shoulder and your right arm morphs, turning into a metallic weapon, gleaming blood-red. A flush of heat washes over you and when you look down, you see your clothes morphing, changing into a recognizable uniform. The long red coat and white vest materializes from nowhere, the sense of familiarity confusing you. Just as you start to panic, your surroundings begin to blur, your reality as you know it, starts changing. The small room fades away and instead, you see the world of BlazBlue coloring your vision, the Ichigenkin cityscape taking form in place of your bedroom. Your mind begins to haze, as if someone is shuffling through it. You try to hold onto who you were, try to remember. But those memories, your moments, they are gradually replaced by another's life, a much darker and challenging one. Living in the streets, being hunted, trying not to hurt anyone despite being damned. Ragna the Bloodedge. His life echoes in your mind, replacing your thoughts and emotions. The pain of losing a brother, the dedication to achieving your goal, the moments of solitariness and isolation, it all crashes into you. His anger, desperation, and stronger will become yours. For a moment, everything stops. You know who you are. You are Ragna the Bloodedge. The lone wolf, seeking revenge. With a resigned breath, you grasp hold of the Grim Reaper, now heavy in your hand. You turn your gaze to the city below, your crimson eyes aglow with determination. A new life awaits you in this hybrid world, a life filled with battles, fears, and revelations. Your former self is a distant echo, overshadowed by the fierce glare of Ragna. This is your reality now. Whatever comes next, you're ready. Loaded with your newfound mindset, you step into the city, a trail of shadows following like specters of your new identity. You can still hear the faint echo, the TV in your old bedroom, blaring the unmistakable title tune of BlazBlue. Only now, you're not on the other side of the screen, No, you've become a part of the game, an irreplaceable part. Ragna the Bloodedge, once a character on your controller, now a living, breathing reality.
