A Hero's Journey

The Power

  A little shaken from that dream, Zach woke up feeling refreshed and suddenly filled with energy. He looked at the remains of what used to be his house. "I can't believe that I'm still alive. Oh man!" He screamed as if something was wrong. "My skateboard cost me a fortune! I can't believe it's gone." He said sorrowfully. Then out of the blue his skateboard fell from the sky. But there was no sign of a scratch or any burn marks. It was like it was protected from the blast. "Cool. Firstly I should find dad as so as possible. I should search the area for him."Zach thought out loud. He looked hard but only saw burn marks on the floor, so he decided to check around the block. Suddenly Spike, the dog appeared and ran towards Zach barking like a vicious lion going to eat its prey. Zach ran but Spike got faster. Then out of nowhere Zach ran as fast as light. He stopped three miles from his house but crashed into a wall. "Whoa! That was so cool! The machine gave me powers!" Zach yelled gleefully. So he looked around and remembered that he left his skateboard. Right when he was getting ready to run back, "Blam" his skateboard appeared in front of him realizing that it was fake. He had imagination powers too. The first thing that came through his mind was swindling  people by imagining money for something expensive and cool. "I can get all color beats. Or maybe all color Jordan's . Or maybe both! But wait, I still have to find dad. I should probably hide my powers from people unless I need it." So he ran back home and imagined a hologram house so no one will see the explosion. " I find you dad, whatever it takes." Then suddenly, out of nowhere, Spike came back. And he was ready to fight.
