Chapter 1 - The Rising Fall

The sky is as normal as it is; neon blue for its nights and shining blue for its days. It is nighttime. The lights of the buildings and cars illuminate the ground while the stars in the sky make the night sky shine. Then, our of nowhere, that very sky starts to crack, creating a sort of rift, as if the sky is turning to glass under pressure, and in an instant, the cracks become a portal, a hole in space-time that reveals our rising hero by showing himself fall from the very sky.

Our hero is shown to be a 17-year-old male. He is also shown wearing an open and big white trench coat, black pants, brown boots, and a grey utility belt, as if he is some sort of freedom fighter. He seems to have a mysterious birthmark on his right shoulder, looking like 2 squares interlocking with one another, making them look like an 8-pointed star. His hair is colored black, and his shining green eyes slowly open.

The young boy then freaks out by the fall, screaming his heart out by fear, but is caught off guard by the beautiful city he is in. It is filled with buildings, cars, and people embedded in neon. The place itself looks like New York City, but with a bright Japanese style. As the people begin to look at him, he realizes that he is still falling and screams as he descends into a nearby forest.

He feels a lot of pain, but he survives. Our hero feels terrified at the forest and stays still in fear, saying:

Protagonist: Where the heck am I? What is this place? Hold on a second. Who the hell am I? Astughfarallah! (This phrase is meant to ask Allah/God for forgiveness for doing something haram/wrong or forbidden) Wait a minute, how in the Dunya (Islamic word for worldly/material life) do I know that?! And why were there dragon ball signs in those cafés? And those paper bomb talisman and that arc reactor and the bat signal. Wait, how do I know this but not who I am?

The boy is a Muslim and knows knowledge from anime, Marvel, and DC, but he has amnesia and doesn't know who he is. He gets up and walks around the place, thinking how this city looks like AnimeExpo if it got fused with ComicCon. But before the Muslim amnesiac can do anything else, a bunch of police officers came up to him and immediately arrested him. They also wore neon, but also had black Japanese Shinigami clothing (Bleach), had Nichirin swords (demon slayer) attached to their belts, and panther-themed samurai helmets.

We are then sent into the Anirabia National Police Station, where our hero is held up by Commissioner Gordon (DC).

Commissioner Gordon: Hey kid, who are you?

Protagonist: I..... I don't know who I am, Mr. Gordon. I have never even met this place, and yet I know you.

Commissioner Gordon: amnesia, huh? Seems like a challenge.

Protagonist: What? Are you gonna bring Bruce Wayne aka Batman here to solve my memory jogging case?

Commissioner Gordon: Wait, what?! How do you know Batman's secret identity? (Pulls out a Glock-17) Don't lie, kid, who the hell are you?

Protagonist: I swear to God. I don't know about myself. All i know is that I was sent here by some sort of rift portal in the sky, and then I was here seeing the place. Besides, who would not know who Batman is? He is like as popular as Superman!

Then, all of a sudden, Batman arrived at the place and told the Commissioner not to scare the boy, and he calmed down the protagonist. Then, the hero tells him: "You....you are Bruce Wayne, am I right?" Which the dark knight agreed to. He asked the muslim hero : Do you remember anything about your life before you got here? To which the Muslim hero disagreed and said: I got no memory on who I am or where I came from, all I know is that I am a muslim and that for some reason, I know tons about superheroes and fictional anime characters, which I never had interest in.

Batman: if I am correct, then our Muslim amnesiac is from the True World. Don't worry. You are not dreaming. This is the Marvelous Kingdom of Anirabia!
