Chapter One

My name is Thomas. This is my story. I should probably tell you that I  am the most powerful being on the face of the planet Earth. Let's start when I was born. That's a usually good place to start. I was born on October 31,2000. My parents told me that was the scariest night of their lives. Of course it was Halloween but they had other reasons to be scared. I was born with a big jagged hole in my chest. Which was bad of course because I was not breathing. My dad Tony Stark (yep you guessed it my dad is iron man) immediately called in the best doctor in the house. Dr.  Aizad. He slapped a makeshift mechanical heart on me and bandaged me from head toe.

      You might be thinking "oh poor kid"! But I don't remember any of this and that is good enough for me.

     I went  school like a normal kid until the the first day of sixth grade. I was walking to school when a kid that looked like a sumo wrestler blocked my way. he walked over and in one swift movement lifted me into the air and demanded money I (being puny compared to him) complied by giving the ten dollar bill in my pocket. he dropped me on the pavement and walked away to threaten some other kids for money. Suddenly the note book in my hand burst into flames I droped it and  and tried to stomp it out but the flames turned blue and started to spread. Some kids looked over to see me running away from large blue flames that were about ten feet tall now and were spreading. Wvery thing was silent. then someone screamed and everybody ran away from the school. Someone had a phone and called 911. Me I did'nt even think about about using my phone I was just focused on runing for my life.It wasn't even untill I got home that I realized that I was flying.I was only three or four inches above the ground but I was FLYING. Right when I realized I was hovering I droped to the ground. This and the fire (that was still going) was to much for me, and I blacked out.

      When I came to, I was in the hospital emergency room surrounded by woried looking docters and my dad.I wove in and out of conciousness for the next few days catching only snipets of what the docters and my parnts were saying. Arc reactor.....Inplant.....Glowing blue.....Flying. nd stuff like that. Finally I woke up permanantly. The doctor and my parents rushed towards me. How do you feel son? My dad asked. Fine I guess, I replied. The doctor ran around, checking the machines around me. My theory was correct he whispered to my dad. My dad grimaced, and said, are you sure? Positive said the doctor said. Whats happining? I said a little scared. My dad turned toward me and said,"Tom....you arn't quite human". WHAT?! I yelled.You are half machine he said.
