6 Colors : The Six

Blink

"Has anyone found my coffee mug, Who took it?"

"Have you checked up in your room sweetie? It might just be there waiting for its daily dose of coffee."

"Yes I have, but I'll go check again. Thanks, mom."

"Found it, it was on my bed stool."

While Myles and his mom conversed, an eclipse took place abruptly. But it was a weird eclipse to Myles. Everywhere was dark, but Myles could still see perfectly well, not only that he could see as bright as day, he looked towards the kitchen where his mom had been, and he saw through the wall. He was able to see his mom groping around through the wall.

"Myles, what happened to the lights? Go turn them back on."

He hurriedly ran to the basement and changed the switch to the inverter. He ran outside and discovered that the whole neighborhood had a blackout. Then a driver who couldn't see properly swiveled onto their street, a little girl was holding her teddy in the middle of the road calling out for her mom. The place was pitch black when all of a sudden the car headlamps appeared out of the darkness just five meters away from the girl, the car was moving at thirty kilometers per hour, so there was no stopping the manslaughter of the child.

Myles suddenly leaned forward like he was about to dash towards the girl, he blinked his eyes and held out his arms to catch the girl even if he was about forty meters away from her, the moment he completed his blink, he saw himself behind the moving car which slowly came to a stop. He also felt his arms wrapping around a breathing organism, panicked he quickly removed his arms and dashed three meters behind the creature, then he depressed his angle of sight and saw the little girl speechless. The driver came down from the vehicle depressed thinking he just murdered a little child, he looked back and saw the girl, but he couldn't see Myles due to the darkness of the very dense eclipse.

The man knelt crying, thanking the heavens for not making him a murderer. The mother of the child appeared from the side of the car and ran towards her daughter lifting her off the ground and wrapping her around her arms. Myles could see what was going on, but he wasn't seen by them, he slowly walked to the swing set on his street and sat on one of them refusing to think of what had happened.

The mother of the child invited the crying driver to her home, the driver got back into the car and parked it properly then he followed her into her house to rest from the trauma that he just had. Myles slowly walked back home, getting to his door, he brought out his phone and opened the camera, he gasped when he saw that everything was darker than night itself. Walking inside, he took his mug and got his coffee then went up to his room and locked the door, That's when he began pondering: he wondered how he was able to move from one place to another super fast, that he was able to save a child from a five-meter range and appear behind the car. He took a sip, then he remembered what happened during his blink: he had leaned forward, but didn't run - in fact his legs didn't move in any way.

"Impossible, it couldn't be... I-I-I-I mean I couldn't have teleported, even if I did, I did it twice... impossible!!"

Then he thought:

"What if I did?" before collapsing on the couch in his room, refusing to think further he dosed off.
