Y/n's POV Location: Unknown

Everything was dark, and I felt cold and numb. I found myself floating in an endless abyss when I opened my eyes.

Y/n: W-where am I?

???: Hello, young child.

I turn my attention to see...

MIO?!

I quickly tried to run but couldn't since I was floating, so I basically just started spinning around, which caused the Spirit of Origin to giggle.

Mio: Why do you seem...afraid?

Y/n: Of course! I know what you're capable of and I don't want to make you angry.

Mio: *Giggles* I am aware that you know who I am, and I know who you are. You're Y/n L/n, a young man who hopes to explore the world and seek its thrills.

I wanted to say something but couldn't; I was stuck with my words. What was I supposed to say to that?

Y/n: H-how do you know that much about me?

Mio: That's a secret that you will soon learn in time. I want to ask you something...Will you help me?

Y/n: Huh? What do you mean?

Mio: I want your help in sealing spirits in my world, along with someone you might know from it.

Is she talking about...Shido? I was confused, but she continued speaking.

Mio: Your kindness and caring personality are wasted on the girls in your world. You deserve better, Y/n.

Y/n: *Pouts* You didn't have to say it like that...

Mio: Would you accept my offer to help seal spirits like myself?

I began to consider the pros and cons of this situation. On one hand, I could live in the Date A Live world and help seal spirits. On the other hand, I could be stuck between worlds. Wait, I should make this more interesting.

Y/n: I'll accept your offer, Mio, but on one condition.

Mio: And what would that be?

Y/n: I would like to be reincarnated as Sonic the Hedgehog!

I mentally cursed myself, she wouldn't know who Sonic the Hedgehog is-

Mio: I see, Sonic the Hedgehog, a young hero who has no master other than the wind that blows freely, extends his hand for his friends, and is willing to make peace with his enemies. A fitting form for someone like you.

Y/n: Really?

Mio: Is there anything else you want?

Y/n: I'm sure there isn't anything left, so I'm ready.

Mio: Alright, good luck, Y/n. I'll see you soon.

I felt a strange feeling coursing through me; it felt painful, but at the same time, it was relaxing. The best way I can describe it is that my body is slowly being torn apart but remade quickly enough. This is the start of my adventure.
