My Powers

I plopped down on my bed, feeling accomplished. Four weeks have passed since I picked out my weapons. Four long and tiring weeks spent training and figuring out what my powers are. I was trained in stealth, fighting (with and without my karambit), parkour, torture, and basically anything I'd need to know. It was exhausting, but apparently I'm a quick learner.

In between my training, Slenderman would do various tests on me to figure out my powers. My memory of what happened during these sessions is very hazy, but eventually they stopped. We now have a good idea on what I can do.

My powers are divided into two categories: unlimited and limited. The unlimited powers are ones that don't need time to recharge. They can be used whenever and as many times I want or need. My unlimited powers include quick reflexes and the ability to, at will, make lights flicker or sometimes explode as a scare tactic. I can also, at will, make electronics go haywire. Awesome, right?

Limited powers, however, are ones that have a limit on how much they can be used. For an example: I'm able to stop someone's heart by touching their pulse, but after using it once, it can't use it again for at least two hours. If I use it again too soon, I'll pass out. Another limited power I have is the ability to, at will, cause a person or multiple people to feel nauseous. This one is limited because if I do this too much in one day without resting, I'll start feeling lightheaded myself.

After we found out my powers, I was trained how to control them.

Now, I'm laying atop my bed. Contemplating everything that's happened. I can't believe this is my life now. I know what I'm capable of now, but I have no idea how I feel about it. I sigh and get off my bed, walking myself over to my mirror. Staring into my lime green eyes, I focus on what I'm feeling. Powerful. From my toes, to my finger tips, to my head, my power is coursing through me. It feels absolutely amazing, ecstatic. Yet, it terrifies me. Slenderman's words echo through my head, "Just remember that if you're not carful, that power could control you. Consume you. Turn you into something you're not."

I just hope that never happens.

The lights in my room begin to flicker as the feeling of power starts to overwhelm me. I tightly close my eyes, having a strong urge to scream. So this is what it feels like to be on the verge of losing control. Taking a deep breath, I remember my control training. The powerful feeling slowly subsides. I was told that when this happens, it's still there. It's just less noticeable and more bearable.

I give a soft smile, I have it under control for now. Maybe I'll be able to handle this after all.

A/n: I'm not sure when I'll next be updating. I usually plan to update at least once every week, however I'm currently mourning two deaths that have recently happened (literally five days apart from each other).. they were animals but that doesn't matter, I consider them as people.. so I'm really depressed and unmotivated so.. I have no idea when I'll start updating again.
