Power (Short) #14

Power

=====

Y/N wakes up hearing the alarm clock goes off as he was about to stop alarm but instead he smashes into pieces. He grumbles and ask Nimbus to clean it up, it becomes a somewhat daily routine for Y/N and Nimbus. Wakes up, smashing the clock, Nimbus sweeps, do some exercise eat, work, rest, sleep and repeat.

Well obviously not all time, he do have some interesting scenarios the past week but something caught his attention before going to work.

Y/N finishing breakfast then washed the dishes. He then start wearing his casual clothes then putting his hat on, he looks at the floating broom who is beside him.

Y/N: "Well another day, another work huh Nimbus?"

The broom shook with a nod as agreement but Y/N realized something.

Y/N: "Hey since I'm an abnormal human maybe I can try something different going to work."

Nimbus tilted with confusion.

Y/N: "How about this you go ahead. I'll try go for a run, how about that?"

The broom didn't hesitate but swoosh away to the window.

Y/N: *sighs* "You're lucky the window is open."

He said as he went outside and locked the house. Once he's on the road he starts heading to the Krusty Krab. Y/N smiles not feeling as tired as expected, he hasn't trained himself ever since before going to Bikini Bottom. His speed can fully outrun a cheetah without breaking a sweat, His strength is beyond human, and he can lift more than 5,000 pounds or more. However, right now he stopped training feeling a bit rusty but a feeling of running made him feel nostalgic back home in Hawaii.

During the run, he noticed Spongebob and Squidward walking together, Y/N smirked as he had an idea.

Y/N runs past them like a cheetah catching them by surprise.

Spongebob: "Wow! I've never seen anyone run that fast!"

Squidward: "Yeah... let alone a human."

Spongebob: "Well I guess I can join for a run. *elbows Squidward* Last one is a rotten egg!"

He said as he sprinted towards the krusty krab catching up, Squidward rolled his eyes and then he jogged to them.

Mr Krabs is at the front door unlocking but then he hears rapid footsteps behind him. He looks behind as he sees Y/N running extremely fast towards him with massive dust behind him, Mr Krabs eyes' pupils shrink as he quickly raises his arms to stop.

Mr. Krab: "Y/N!!! STOP!!! YOU'RE GONNA-"

Unfortunately it's too late as Y/N tries to stop but it made him skid towards and crash on him. Y/N gets up holding his head but then he hears a grows as he looks seeing Mr. Krabs on the ground glaring at Y/N.

Y/N: "Oh... Hehe. Hey boss!"

Mr. Krabs: "Grrrrrr...."

Spongebob and Squidward finally arrive and see the situation between the two. Spongebob looks at them worried while Squidward has his arms crossed with a smirk.

Squidward: "Ooooooh you're in big trouble now."

Y/N: "Uh..."

Mr. Krabs: "WHAT THE HEAVENS IS WRONG WITH YOU BOY! YOU COULD'VE GOT ME INJURED, OR WORST!"

Y/N: "Sorry boss, I'm just testing powers."

Mr. Krabs: "Wh- Powers? Like, have superpowers? I don't believe ya."

Y/N: "Does human breathing water count?"

Mr. Krabs: "Ah that's just a minor difference."

Y/N: "Oh come on boss you saw me run fast! Ask these two they saw me when I passed by."

Spongebob: "That's true! It's amazing, right Squidward?"

Squidward: "Eh. He only caught me surprised that's all."

Mr. Krabs: *sighs and looks at Y/N* "Well whatever you are doing, just don't cause a ruckus or you fired understand?"

Y/N: *salutes* "Aye aye sir! or Boss! or-"

Mr. Krabs: "Let's just get to work."

He said as they walked inside the restaurant and began their duties.

Squidward: "You should be careful next time or you might get fired."

Y/N: "Oh come on, I'm sure he doesn't mind if I do another one."

Mr. Krabs: *distance*: "Yes I will!"

Y/N: "Oh."

Timeskip

During lunch break Y/N invites Spongebob outside the back if he wants to see his powers, he agrees without hesitation I mean who wouldn't?

Y/N: "Alright the boss is very strict time management so let's make this count."

Spongebob: "Yup! *pulls out the camera* Ready!"

He said as he pressed start recording. Y/N gets himself in position.

Y/N: "Alright so flight test we gonna have to do this quick hopefully crash anything. *ahem* Alright 1... 2... 3!"

Y/N forcefully jumps high leaving the ground cracks. Spongebob is shock but quickly looks up with a camera seeing Y/N in the air.

Y/N tries to pose like superman but failed as he slowly descending really fast. Spongebob was about to panic but Y/N manage to slow it down due to ocean gravity and lands on is feet.

Spongebob: "Y/N! Are you alright?"

Y/N: "I guess so. Seems like I don't have the ability to fly."

Spongebob: "Well at least you have your companion Nimbus"

Y/N: "Yeah I guess that's true."

Spongebob: "Well since flying doesn't work what else do you have?"

Y/N: "Well I can jump high, I can run fast without breaking a sweat but I am not as fast as the Flash or Sonic."

Spongebob: "Who?"

Y/N: "We'll talk later."

Spongebob: "Ok. Oh! What about strength? You did save from the giant clamb when we met Sandy."

Y/N looks at both of his hands but he feels weak.

Y/N: "I guess I did? It could be my adrenaline that trigger it."

Spongebob: "So you are only strong but only if there is trouble."

Y/N: "Seems like it. Come on break is almost over."

Spongebob: "By the way mermaid man and barnacle boy is gonna start tomorrow, wanna join me and Patrick?"

Y/N pondered a bit then nodded.

Y/N: "Sure, but I might be busy on something so I'm probably gonna be late."

Spongebob: "That's alright."
