Not Your Average

Chapter 6

I was glad that I got the results and it wasn't anything bad, but it didn't effect me. I'm not overly joyed or upset, just. Just nothing. I expected more.

"You OK?" Steve asked

"Yeah." I said. I didn't know what ot do. I hadn't learned how to control it yet. I don't have them right now.

"Do you need help with anything?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I think I need to therapy, to help me learn to control it all. Is there like a physical therapy here, only for like, powers?" I was really wondering, but it seemed like a stupid question.

"Actually yeah. I'll take you to it." Natasha helped me again. We went down the hall. Past the lab. Past a few offices and the we a left. There were a couple doctors and it seemed pretty awkward. They were all nice and they helped me. It reminded me of my physical therapy back in high school. It was a sporting accident.

"Are your powers new?" One of the theropists asked me.

" From what I know."

"OK. I want you to dig deep. Feel the power inside of you and bring it out. You can do it. Close your eyes. Breathe in. Out. Now stand. Now try to activate one of your powers."

I tried to make a metal object come to me. I opened my eyes and I made a weight come to me. I looked at myself and I was silver again.

"Good! Now I want you to try to make your powers go away. Try to be, normal, for lack of a better word." She said. I didn't mind that she said I wasn't normal. It was true, I agreed. I let the weight go and just tried to let my powers go. This time I kept my eyes open. I watched my skin turn form silver to peach slowly. It started to fade at my head and ended at my feet. I smiled.

"Good job" she talked to me as if I were a kid. "I think that's enough for today, but I would like you to come in the rest of the week. We'll see if you need anymore by then. With you training and the theropy I don't think you'll need anything! See ya tomorrow!"

I left without saying anything. It was disturbing, how perky she was. How she treated my like a kid. I hated it.
