Paul was happy once, but that was a long time ago. Right now, he was a miserable person because he was one other the few people who knew just how messed up this universe was. He was in DC Universe, transmigrated through birth but he didn't even have his golden finger. He was so mad he refused to talk to anyone. But, he didn't give up as he did the Saitama training but it didn't give any yield. He tried to sense for Ki in him, Chi and other forms of energy inside his body but the result was very disheartening. From then on, he only had an emotionless face.
His mother married hubby number two and she was happy. The man treated her right and he did his best to telorate Paul but when she became pregnant with his baby, he started neglecting him and his mother did so unconsciously. So, Paul went to the only thing he thought was wise in his teenage mind, drugs. He even found a guy who would supply him with them as he worked his ass off for the money.
Because of his addiction, his grades plummeted, his hygiene seemed to have amnesia when he himself was a mess. The principal became concerned and tested him for drugs and he passed, the first test he passed for the first time in the year. She later came to know he threatened another boy to get his urine so she did another test and he came out positive for drugs. She immediately called his parents but only his mother showed up. But, she wasn't listening to him and she was too eager to throw him inside rehab claiming he was endangering his little sister with his addiction. When they got home, his step father was waiting for him.
"You stupid, braindead junkie!" he called out as he threw him to the ground. "Did you ever bring those drugs into the house! In front of Cassie?"
"Yeah, smoked two joints next to her just this morning," Paul antagonized him with a cocky smile. His step father lost his temper as he sat on his chest and started punching Paul on the face.
"You Motherfucker!" Daniel (step father) cursed as he punched Paul again and again and again. Paul felt his head ache with each punch as emotions bubbled inside his brain, making his headache even worse. When Daniel had had enough, he got up and went to the fridge as Paul gasped for air, trying to get up. Daniel, now with a beer in his hands, looked at his sorry sight and growled before kicking him right on the head. Paul felt something snap in his brain before a warm wave swept down his body. His whole body was healed and his strength was back but he didn't realize it for his eyes were looking at Daniel with hatred.
"I am going to make sure you will suffer for the rest of your life, so, go to hell!" he venomously spat out. As soon as he said that, ghost like hands shot out of the ground, got hold of Daniel then dragged him down through the floor. Paul was so stupefied he fell to the ground. His whole body was frozen in terror.
"I just killed Daniel!" he exclaimed. The noise of a muffled scream drawn him from his thoughts as he looked behind and saw his mother having cupped Esther's mouth and the latter seemed ready to scream about something. Paul was irritated by her cries so he turned to her.
"Shut up!" he said. Esther suddenly became calm, making Paul remember his previous actions. He knew his mother must have seen him doing that and she was afraid. "Mom, you don't need to be afraid of me. Let me kill that thing then it will be just me and you till the end times." His mother hugged Esther tightly when she heard that.
"You are not killing my child. Paul, please, I raised you better than this!" she tried to snap him out of it.
"I hate you," Paul said instead then snapped his fingers. She and Esther suddenly exploded like a ripe melon in the sun. "I prefer my first mom anyway."
