Chereads / TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN / Chapter 5 - The new me

Chapter 5 - The new me

Zeke was at an abandoned construction site walking around, he was thinking if what he saw on his flash backs was him then he needed to test some things outs

first up super strength

Zeke folded his right hand into a fist and threw a punch with all his might at a pillar and it broke, the he did the same to a bag of cement and smoke came over the place as the bag exploded

next was super speed, Aldo he did know how to test it so he just ran, to him he felt normal but to the normal human eye he was anything but normal when he ran,

ok then let's check if a can fly, Zeke walked up to the top of the building but when he looked down he immediate changed his mind

He started thinking of anything else he could do and then he remembered something, the aura that came out from his body

ok let's do his

haaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

pfffffff

after screaming and taking a sort of stance with his hands folded and by his waist all he got was a forced fart

I don't understand, I mean I get I have powers now but how and why plus they aren't as strong as last night. Zeke was confused but he had plenty of time to test himself out

while Zeke was busy punching holes in stuff and making smoke everywhere someone else was looking for him at school but it was someone he would never expect or rather he would but both for the reason she normally would, it was Lucy but unlike before she wasn't looking for him to torment him, she was actually looking for him to thank him as she knew he was the person that saved her last night but she was disappointed to find out he was suspended as of today

somewhere else another person was thinking of Zeke aldo nothing had changed for this particular person

curse that ungrateful maggot, he wants to take away the only person who cares for me now like he did my family, everything is his fault and now he wants to do it again, Lisa was 19 yrs old but thanks to her parents money she could live alone and train herself through collage, she was studying to be a lawyer as she had a passion to liberate innocent people from injustice, that was her passion. She was know among her department as one of the most beautiful and brilliant students so it was natural for guys and girls alike to flock to her but there was just one guy that court her attention, he was handsome and charming, the way he approached her was different from the way others did and when he looked at her she didn't feel uncomfortable or uneasy at all it was the opposite so she didn't chase him away or avoided him like she did others and eventually the two started going out, he made her feel safe for the first time and she felt closure, she didn't feel scared or lonely like she always did so natural she clung to him and when he said he loved her she went nuts, since then she did any and everything he said even when he said he told he to wait for him somewhere while he went to see another girl she didn't care and waited, to her he was all she needed, this way she could cope and move on from the trauma of her life completely so naturally when he said he wanted to make her his last night she was over joyed but too back a demon possessed boy came along and threw him out like he was a nothing but feathers.

I won't let you take away everything from me again, I won't she said to herself as she made her way to see her boyfriend again

it was finally time to go home and Zeke felt he had done a lot today, what did he do you ask? making holes through almost everything and running round the place and yet he didn't have a drop of sweat on him, he also tried using magic since magic was the main source of power in the world, anyone who had magic could do almost anything he it she wanted, the elves where loved manna while the fairies had special unique magical abilities, the dwarves and a strange sort of magic that was best for black smith and making stuff while the demi humans where gifted with extreme physical abilities and powers that weren't in anyway magical, these where called skills or mutant ability but even at that some could still use magic, only the humans that could use a limited amount of it but through training they could grow but even at that not all humans could do it, roughly 40 percent of humans could use magic while the rest couldn't, the orcs had only a selected few and there magic was unique to them

Zeke tried but couldn't use magic which made him wonder what it was, the power he remembered having, either way Zeke felt he would learn to use it soon cus he was planning on going out again this night.

on his way home zeke felt something strange but at the same time familiar, he walked towards the place which seems empty but he could feel something was there, after looking around he decided to leave thinking his mind was playing tricks on him

mean while somewhere else a man got a signal from a mark on the back of his hand, the mark was beaming with red light, he has awakened his power, but why now and why that one.

Zeke gets home before Lisa and with he's new found abilities does all the chores relatively fast and easy, but now it was boring, the ghosts of the seekers usually follow Lisa around so there wasn't any one for I'm to talk to so he sad on he's bed and began reminiscing about old good memories, his time at the orphanage and his time with the seeker family, now that he thought about it he never actually had any good memories, he only had memories of people laughing at him or looking at him with disgust with the soul exception of the seeker parents, not even the grand parents treated him nicely, the same him as another servant so there weren't really any good memories at all just him hiding his pain and face away and going with the flow, like father Levi said, push them aside and focus on the good part, don't pay evil with evil but the problem now was there was no good part to focus on and the bad feelings started rising up again but as usual Zeke would keep them in never showing how he truly felt, with nothing else to do and his mood changed from all the reminiscing, he decided to sleep a little

Lisa finally came home by 6 in the evening, she had to spend extra time with her boyfriend to apologize and explain the situation with Zeke, as compensation he asked her to spend the hole day with him at his place, she gladly accepted when he got disappointed that she couldn't cook, they bought some food or rather she bought some food the he asked for money and later she left, just like that. When she got home she dug in as she was still hungry us boyfriend ate most of the food she ordered then she remembered Zeke and stormed off to his room but when she went there he wasn't there.
