My birthday ended 10 days ago, it was gone pretty fast, but I learned some things.
Firstly, the energy can be affected unconsciously, even if you can't feel it, but your emotions have to be very strong, which made me sadder as it means those negative emotions people near me were feeling were strong. And secondly, not only do people's emotions affect the energy, but the energy can affect their emotions as well, which I learned by amplifying some 'hatred' energy I was feeling, which caused 2 patients to almost fight each other. How do I know that? Well, until now my sensing range was short, but it was also expanding in every direction. So I tried focusing only on a certain area, which increased my sensing range by a couple of meters, enough to look into the hallway.
I also tried it on myself, and although the effect is small, it exists. I think it's because I know what's affecting me so I can subconsciously combat it. Luckily, unless I want to, it won't even be able to get close to me.
And now I'm able to feel my organs. As I expected, most of them aren't there. It won't be as simple as moving. Even if all my wounds heal, I wouldn't survive a minute if I was disconnected from the machines. My lungs are almost gone, my kidneys are gone, my heart would stop beating in a matter of seconds. I'm surprised I survived until they got me to the hospital. This will take longer than I expected...

3 months into the future.
Inside a manor on the easter side of the city.
Slap
A slapping sound echoed through the big room. A 20 something-year-old man was kneeling on the floor, covering half of his face with his hand.
"Fa...Father… please, I'm sorry…"
"Shut up!" A tall man, dressed in a business suit said.
"It's been 4 months and you only tell me now? Do you even know what you did?"
"The… The police won't find me, I got rid of the evi…"
"It's not that you idiot. The guy you hit. If he survived, he should know about the existence of creation energy. You couldn't even manage to make a shield that can resist a mere car crash..."
"How? It took me years just to sense it, how could he do it in 4 months?"
"4 months? It would take him at most 1 or 2."
"But… I don't understand…"
"Of course you don't! Right now, you need to get rid of him! The more we leave him alive the more dangerous he becomes. Understood?"
"...yes, father." The young man said as he got up and left the room.

Later that night.
Swish
A shadow was flying across the city, jumping from building to building, blending with its surroundings.
"That punk, sending me to kill a disabled kid just because he's too lazy. When did I lower myself so much? If he wasn't the family head's son he wouldn't even dare look me in the eyes!"
As the "shadow" said so, it jumped towards the next building, but as he reached halfway, he started falling, when suddenly he stopped in midair. Its foot touched an invisible platform and he successfully reached the building, which was his final target, the hospital.
He jumped from the rooftop and used another invisible platform to jump to a certain window. Looking inside, he saw a man with no limbs lying on the bed.
'It's him… wait, shouldn't he already be controlling creation energy? Unless…'
The energy inside the man was flowing chaotically, like all the other humans who couldn't control it. The only explanation was that he sensed the assassin before him, making him lose control, or even worse, he did so intentionally to make himself look normal. But that was impossible, only 4 months passed.
'This guy… he's weird, I have to finish this fast and leave' As he thought so, he raised his arm. The darkness around him looked like it was forming a vortex, forming a pitch-black dagger hovering a couple of centimeters above his arm, looking almost immaterial, as if made out of dark fog. The assassin swung his hand and the black dagger flew towards the disabled man.

A couple of minutes before.
Man, 4 months passed since the accident. I can't wait for my power to grow until I can move again, I'm bored to death.
Although I'm saying so, I can't complain. My powers are growing faster and faster. I can already use the energy to make things like a shield, which I can move, and I can put light objects on top of it too. It would probably block a punch or two before breaking.
Also, my sensing range increased by leaps and bounds, and talking about it… I'm feeling a human on the rooftop, but that's not the weird thing. The energy flowing around him, it's… the same as mine, actually, it seems stronger. He can probably feel my energy as well, I should disperse it so I seem normal.
And now he's at the window. He seemed to be using something similar to my shield to jump in midair. And now he seems to be doing something, energy seems to flow towards a space above his hand, and then disappear. Then he swung his arm, but I couldn't sense anything. To be safe I quickly created a shield, and the next second, a hole appeared in the shield, after which I felt great pain in my chest.
