           The world can be beautiful yet so cruel. In my world, 98% of the people here have their own unique power. Most of the powers may possibly be based on your parents. I'm Lex, in short of Alexi. My family name is Oblivion. My name sounds pretty cool, Alexi Oblivion. I'm 15 and currently it's the year 2056. My power is related to plants, seeds and anything living except for humans. I can make them grow with just a touch. Sometimes I can make them grow by just looking at them. Yes, I can make them grow in a flash but I do indeed need a seed or something to grow. I can't just make a plant or flower or anything appear without a source. My dad always reminds me to bring cactus seeds in case I'm in danger. I'd throw it to the person with threat and make it grow while its still near them so that the cactus will have contact to their skin. Then I'll run away as fast as lighting. Enough about me. I'll tell you about my parent's powers. My dad's power is that he can make anything go back to its healthy and normal form. Let's say a tree is dying, if my dad touches it, the tree will turn healthy and alive as it was back then. I guess my power is based most on my dad's power since he's power only takes effect on plants. My mother's power is that she can go see through an object's timeline. Her power is difficult to explain but is incredibly amazing. Well I'm going to need to mention an example again. In this example imagine my mom standing up and touching me. Yes, me. She wanted to see how I'd look like when I'm 30. As she uses her power, in her perspective it's as if I'm growing within seconds but in reality, or in my perspective I myself still is the same. I'm still in my 15-year-old body. My power is very related to my parent's. It has time and something to do with plant in it.

            My mother describes me as an independent and brave girl. She said when I was a kid, I wouldn't hesitate to help a furious squirrel get back up to its home when it fell. I usually don't tell people this but my dad is a part of a family with 2 powers. The first power is their own unique one and the second is that they could strengthen or make their unique power perform stronger. My dad disliked using his 2nd power because he mentioned that you needed a lot of energy and strength to be able to pull it off. When he was my age, he wanted to try it out but it ended up horribly. He's whole body were like noodles. He couldn't more nor stand. My dad stayed in that condition for 2 weeks. Yikes! I don't know if I'll ever get that 2nd power my dad is talking about but if I ever encounter it, I'd be honored. My dad owns a flower shop and he's flowers are known here in the town since he makes them so vibrant and fresh that the people loves it. My mom is a tailor, she creates exceptional clothing for the high life forms. The high life forms are like our leaders. If you're asking how did they have that rank or position. Well its because each year we get to have an event where 50-100 people to compete for a spot in the high forms. Only 1 will be chosen... well not really chosen but 1 will only survive. Since I was a kid, I always fantasized joining it but my parents are afraid of it. They're afraid of what it may do to me. Another prize for the event is an innumerable number of money.
