The beeping sound of the machine reached his ears as Reed opened his eyes with difficulty. The last time he remembered something like this was when he almost destroyed his lab.
" You woke up, Mr. Richards."
The doctor sat down beside him, checking his vitals to make sure he was fine before discharging him.
" What happened to us?"
Reed recalled him being crash landing near Eden and being sent to the hospital but nothing after that.
" You are quite lucky people to survive such high cosmic radiation. Your ship has been destroyed on the impact and you almost died from hypothermia. Fortunately, you were saved by the navy of the royal army in our port."
The doctor wrote down the data on the tablet, examining his body further.
" I guess I am extremely lucky then. What about others?"
Reed didn't know how to answer his questions, choosing to ignore the fact that he was alright from the devastating crash.
" They are alright but I have to inform you something."
The doctor's tone got serious when he said this. Reed felt something amiss from the situation, believing in the worst because, by his tone of, there was something wrong with them. Especially when he heard about radiation which kills almost every human on high dosages like them.
" Listen to me well, Mr.Richards. Your body has been altered by the cosmic radiation in surprising ways. Each 4 of you had a different level of powers that is in line with superhumans. I believe you are a member of superhumans now since there is no certain way to get back to normal human again unless you do something radical like magic."
Reed tilted his with confusion but just before he could ask what he meant by that. His hands stretched like a rubber. Doctor pulled his hand, stretching all way up to the other side of the room as the latter watched it with horror.
Furthermore, he didn't feel any pain and it was a natural thing to do in his body.
" What have I become? Am I a monster?"
Reed pulled out the scanners from his body, hiding his face with his hands. The sheer fear and disgust for his newfound power was overwhelming even for his mind.
" Calm down, sir. We will accompany you to help you. For most of the parts, it is difficult for to others accept who they have become since the current world doesn't view us in kind ways. However, I can assure you that you are normal like others. Your biggest problem is to control this power and accept who you are now."
Reed took a deep breath to calm down, looking at the doctor to analyze things.
" Doctor, please guide me to the others and prepare for our discharge. I believe we have a few things to handle back in our home and I can control my power."
The doctor took a deep look at his face, understanding this man had a resolution for this and he wasn't willing to stay here, so he did the most obvious thing.
" I understand. I will write your discharge statement. You can choose how to leave this place through the administration and you have to fill out a few forms."
He got up from his chair as Reed tried to get up but before he could do that, he found his body to be floating in the air.
" This is our special technology that assist our patients that have difficulty when they try to move. We call it S.Y.N.C. It is a leading technology that was made from the efforts of the greatest scientists across the universe and the dimensions."
Reed carefully examined the floating little device with his eyes, thinking it had to do something with space technology and nanotechnology since it was using space energy to fuel itself.
The hospital halls were long and clean for some reason. Reed could see different kinds of patients in their wards and other rooms for their usage, most of them had super powers but there were still normal people who were talking with doctors in their rooms.
" We are here. Be careful when you enter the room because your teammates aren't that proficient yet."
The doctor warned him with a calm tone.
