I Woke Up With Superpowers

Jobless and still boring

She didn't wake me. She claims she tried, but in her words I was "dead to the world". Not sure how she didn't panic since I had just admitted to eating radioactive cookies. Anyways, I woke up two days later. Two! To find out I was jobless since I didn't inform my boss that I could be dying and would not be attending work.

And now here I am sitting in my kitchen applying to anything and everything I can find. While waiting for Amy to get back from her shopping trip.

"So do you feel different? Any extra body parts I should know about?" Amy teased while we ate our pasta. I shook  my head. So far I felt and looked the same. The only difference was that the dust in the room was beginning to bug me. What if developed super cleaning abilities or just OCD and couldn't stand to see a speak of dust. My life would be over.

"I'm waiting for my spidie senses to kick in."I joked, half hoping I would receive the gift of reflexes instead.

"Oh, maybe you'll be like Catwoman and have a special connection with some animal." she suggested pointing her fork at me.

" Yeah and then I can become animal whispered and tell people what their pets really think of them." I pointed out before adding  "excuse me m'am, your dog hates you, he likes our mom better because she feeds him real food, not the vegan diet thing you buy. OK. Nice talking to you bye" 

We both burst out laughing. No it was best if I didn't talk to animals.

"How about weather control? That way its never humid and I won't have a bad hair day again?"

"Or laser vision?"

"So you can start a fire with your eyes?"

"No like Superman, and see through things." I pointed out in a duh tone.

"That's x-ray vision, and you only want that because of the neighbor three doors down. Don't think I haven't seen him."

"What about mind reading, or super strength?" I blushed changing the topic.

"Yes, because you going all Hulk on me when you get hungry isn't enough."

"As long as i don't talk to fish. I think I can live with anything." I told her as we laughed over my misery. 

I woke up the next day feeling refreshed, I even beat my alarm. The sun was shining the birds were chirping the coffee was brewing in the kitchen. My stomach growled at the thought of food, I already had a bottomless pit for a stomach, I did not need to develop a Super hunger. Captain Hungry did not sound appealing at all. And I was sure I would die since I was currently jobless.

I threw off my comforter, but in my rush to get out of bed I didn't realize that I was not in my room.
