Monologue

BANGCHAN POV.

I was adopted when I was 3 by my current parents Jonathan and Martha Chan. My full name is Bang Christopher Chan, I don't know when I was born, but my parents have always told me my birthday is October 3rd since that was the day they found me in a capsule in the middle of a grassland in Australia, we moved to Korea when I was 10.

I don't know a single thing about my real parents, I don't know if they are alive, I don't know their names, it's like they never existed and I just popped out of thin air.

Everything that my parents tell me from that day on makes me feel weird. Why did my adoptive parents find me in a capsule, why can't I find my real parents, I could go on with how many questions I have.

Ever since I was a kid it feels like my body has been fighting against me. I was a fast learner and a fast developer but my body doesn't feel like I'm alive, especially in the sun my body aches and makes me feel so weak. My high school friends were childish and said I might be a vampire but those aren't real it's just a myth like zombies, aliens, unicorns, superheroes right?

I was bullied in middle school because of my weird feelings, always having to ask the teacher to close the blinds because my body felt weak or not being able to go outside durning P.E because my body was fighting against me, it was like the sun hated me or something. My parents thought it was an allergic reaction but the doctor says I'm completely fine. So what is wrong with me?

But my whole life changed in high school that's when I figured out what was wrong with me. The sun wasn't making me weaker it was making me stronger but my body was too young to know, that's why I felt weak and hurt all the time. The sun makes me posses the powers of flight, superhuman strength, x-ray vision, heat vision, cold breath, super-speed, enhanced hearing, and nigh-invulnerability.

Crazy right? My planet was destroyed accidentally due to its core running out of energy, and exploding in the process. The planet was around 8.7 billion years old. That incident happened recently, by recently I mean 17 years ago that's why my parents found me in a capsule in the middle of a grassland when I was 3. To be honest I might not even be 20 I might be older or even younger but my parents decided I was three since that's what I looked like at the time.

My home planet Krypton is a similar being to Earth but much older and more advanced. Scientist say the planet's destruction was caused by old age and the Kryptonians' excessive use of electricity for their technology. The destruction of Krypton created kryptonite, a dangerous compound that makes me  as vulnerable as any human when exposed to it, exposure to the radiation of a red sun, like the one from my home planet Krypton, neutralizes my abilities.

Now doesn't this story sound familiar? It sound like a comic that we all read or heard about when we were young. By the time I was in high school I found out that I was Superman. That couldn't be true, superheroes are all just a bunch of comics and myths so.

Who am I?




















Present day

"Dude you're literally Superman, you can go save the world!" Changbin yelled whispered. Changbin is one of my good friends and I had to get this story off of my chest so why not tell him, he knows how to control himself and he didn't even go to collage so the only person he would tell was Felix and me and Felix are close friends too so that didn't really matter.

"The world doesn't need saving changbin, nothing is going to happen I just need to not use my powers and I will be fine. I'm just a normal human just like you and everybody else." I say a little annoyed
