The Beginning of how this all happened was all very mundane, now that I look back upon it.
I was out, getting groceries and then I hear a scream coming from an alleyway, it sounded like it was a woman, so I go and investigate. Find out the woman is about to be killed, so something happened, I felt my skin melt away, as my body temperature rose to enormous levels, it was agony, and then I walk towards to guy, who proceeded to shoot at me, which did nothing, surprisingly. I picked him up by the collar of his shirt, and my voice sounded different, like it was a much more sinister person speaking. I said:
"Look into my eyes... feel the pain that you inflicted upon others. As you so you may feel what they felt"
And like that he crumbled to the ground after which I felt everything go back to normal and didn't remember much, but the police did lock me up for 'murder' even though eyewitness said I defended that woman. Some people in prison tried to jump me. But I could sense that they were all evil. Except one. I felt the same sensation overcome me as I proceed to knock each one of them down as they start to panic. I notice one wearing a neat leather jacket, so I take it. I point to the young black male and say:
"You are innocent... sorry for the trouble kid..."
And I proceed to melt door off it's hinges and walk out. Still with that feeling. I get on my bike that they impounded, which took on an entirely new form as I got on it.
Did I turn into a ghost rider? I thought, as I rode away from the station and towards my home. I won't run. But neither will I allow myself to be taken against an unfair trial.
"We should call these weird abilities people are starting to get stands, or quirks" said our long time punching bag, Ivy. Of course I say this as an endearing term, just because she is notorious for being bad at fighting games.
"No ivy, that's a stupid fucking idea" was my response
Flame responded next: "Yea are you trying to get this story stricken down before it gets up?"
"Sorry" she says
"Look, there is just a lot of shit going on in this world. And I know if I had some kind of power, I would like to fix it" I said.
"Woah woah woah, wait a minute Dragon, are you saying you have some kind of power?" Asked blade and flame in unison, or as close to unison as you can get on an Xbox party chat
"No. What makes you think that?" I retort
"I don't know?" Says flame "maybe checkovs gun?" I don't remember how it is spelled so please correct me and I will get that fixed.
"Look, if I had some kind of ability wha-"
"Fire based" says blade
"Ghost rider" says flame
"DIO" says ivy
Me flame and blade all said in unison "Ivy, Shut the fuck up"
"Sorry" she said.
"Look guys, if y'all are coming down this way, I'd like to meet up with you all" I say "just tell me when." Ivy sounded super excited about that. And I got confirmation that we would all meet up. I got off and went to sleep. Dreaming about the powers I had not told them I had.
