Arthur finished the test in front of him as best he could at first it was easy but it started to become very complicated, there were many things that he did not understand very well and others that honestly seemed incomprehensible to him, but he responded to what he could
Very good boy, although it seems that you don't have any power related to the mind, you're quite smart "said the woman seeing what Arthur had answered, she answered excellent everything that she had learned at her age and one or two years on that The boy was smart, but he wasn't a super genius or anything like that, the woman thought, looking at the boy's file, noting that he's only 10 years old
"Let's continue with the physical tests" the woman said as she wrote the results of what the boy had written on her file and began to walk to another room
When they got to the other room, there were many kinds of machines to measure almost every physical aspect of a person.
"Okay, let's start with maximum speed" said the woman, looking again at the child's history, it said that he was a delta mutant, because of his energy signature, these mutants could show many different types of abilities, from simply feeling the emotions of others, to be able to exchange some part of your body for some material
Arthur just nodded and went to a corner where the woman indicated, when the woman activated a switch that let out a sound, Arthur thought that this was the exit signal, so he ran out
The woman paid attention to Arthur's speed mark, when he reached the finish line, the stopwatch in front of her lasted and showed the boy's speed
37 seconds, with an average speed of 10 km/h, nothing impressive in the real scale of things, captain america could run 90 km/h, so he could do this in less than 5 seconds, but for a kid and but for a 10-year-old boy this was a bit fast, considering that it always takes more than 40 seconds, it wasn't too unusual or anything like that, but I wrote it anyway, lgi oe said that I should follow up on this
"Let's move on to the next test, weight lifting" she said as they reached a corner of the room, where there were several bars.
"Let's start with 5 kilos, just try to lift the bar up to your waist" the woman told him pointing to a small bar, then gave him a brief explanation of how to position his body to get the best result, because if you have a bad posture a person can easily lift less than 50% of what they can actually lift
Before that, Arthur just nodded again and positioned himself as the woman had told him, and he lifted it up easily.
The woman began to nod, already knowing which way the child's powers were going
"Very good, let's go with 10 kilos" said the woman pointing to another slightly larger bar
Arthur continued and lifted it, quite easy really, even he was a bit surprised because although he did not understand anything about what was happening, he did see that he was lifting something quite heavy
What happened next surprised Arthur, in the end he was able to lift 50 kilos before he felt that his arms were going to fall off
"Quite surprising, let's rest for a moment so we can continue, I need the best results" said the woman before sitting in a chair that Arthur honestly didn't know where he came from
"Sit down and rest," the woman said before literally reaching behind her back and pulling out a chair.
Arthur was surprised before this and the woman simply showed a neutral look.
"Or this, yes, I'm like you, mine is that I can open portals smaller than me to a dead dimension" said the woman as if it didn't matter
Arthur, who hadn't said anything until now said "Did you go through this too?" asked Arthur
The woman was a bit surprised by the question but she just remained silent, Arthur did not insist since he was quite scared with everything that had happened, and he was honestly afraid that if the woman insisted he would take out a gun and blow his head off
"Let's continue" the woman said after 15 minutes had passed.
"Okay" Arthur said.
"Lung test, just put your head in the water and stand as long as you can, we can't teach you how to hold your breath right now" said the woman, it takes more than 2 months to teach a person to breathe, no they had that time, at least not right now
Arthur nodded again and with a little fear he put his head in the water, after what seemed like an eternity to him he took his head out
"1 minute 10 seconds, let's continue" the woman said as she wrote down on the sheet
after this they continued with the other exercises
(In order not to go on too long, I'm going to have the scientist say a little summary for Arthur)
"Long jump 2 meters, high jump 40 cm, also your skin has a very slight durability, it is very minimal, so much so that it is not even detected by any human means, however, according to the study that the machine executed, you present it, it happens the same as with your healing factor, it's too minimal, so much so that it doesn't really change your body's healing times, besides a few milliseconds, it's there though" the scientist finished, but seeing that arthur was left with a puzzled angry woman sighed and said
"So you understand me, your body is in perfect condition, literally perfect, although you are not superhuman, maybe when you reach adulthood you will reach the maximum that a human being could have reached, with your little 'superhuman' abilities that do not They will change nothing" Superhuman said very in quotes, since that cannot be truly called superhuman, but the skin and something as specific as the healing factor is not something that can be developed with training or anything, the skin of all humans it is just as hard, and the same with healing, and everything that comes out of this, no matter how small, is already considered superhuman
"So both your energy range and your real potential are perfectly those of a delta, congratulations" the woman finished, both leaving the room
Returning to the common room, they found a few children, not all of them were there, but not many were missing either.
"Very well children, we will wait another few minutes for your other companions, after this you will be assigned to some groups and you can go to sleep, tomorrow the training begins" said the woman who shot one of the children earlier
When the missing children arrived, the woman was given all the forms for each child, and a section showed which group they had to go to
"Okay let's start, Laila Anderson, Tomas Moore, issbella Cassidy..., they will go to group 1, Camila Cairo, cesilia white..., they will go to group 2, Alexander de'soto, Sofi walker and Arthur Knight, group 3 "the woman began to say, every time a group finished, the members went to some corridors with their numbers, little by little all the children walked to their corridors and only one girl remained in the middle
Everyone was looking at her, including Arthur, the girl seemed to be about 12 years old, with ruby hair and green eyes, not very short, of average height, but very fair in appearance.
"Grace Giaiant... group 5" the woman said as she looked at the girl, a little envy on her face.
The girl just started to look around her before heading down a hallway, all alone.
Arthur goes with his two now new companions, Alexander and Sofí, they did not speak to each other, the three seemed very scared, so they did not say anything, soon they arrived before three doors, one on each wall, each one simply chose one at the same time. chance and I enter, but not before looking at each other
Pov Arthur
When I closed the door behind me, I just fell on the bed in front of me, I touched my face and felt how a river of tears began to fall, I don't want to be here, I want my mom, now
It was the last thing I could think of before I fell unconscious from the dream I had
