Chapter 9 - Kai

"So, how are you planning on becoming a superhero, Kazuki?" Kai asked.

"Well, I have this spirit God inside me. and a retired superhero as my dad. so I think I'll manage to become a superhero." Said Kazuki. Kai laughs, then he stops laughing.

"Ok. Looks like you do have it covered. What cool powers do you have?" Kai asked.

"Well, I have lightning. And apparently I have thunder, too. I don't know how the thunder works or what it does, but it sounds cool!" Kazuki replied.

"Ok. well, that's super cool! When will your lessons start?" Kai asked.

"Everyday." Kazuki replied.

"Oh, ha. Brutal. Well let me know once you learn some cool new moves." Kai said.

"Ha, ok. Of course." Kazuki replied.

"Well, I have to leave town for a few months. I have to train with a couple of masters and do some tournaments. These ones will get me a major score of money!" Kai said.

"Oh, well, ok. Have fun, bro." Kazuki says as he gives Kai a fist bump and they both walk away going home. Kazuki arrives home, and is greeted by his father and mother.

"Hello, Kazuki. Are you ready for practice?" Kazuki's father asked.

"Yes!" Kazuki eagerly replied.

"Well this training will be intense and an all-nighter. So, get ready." Kazuki's father replied.

"Ok!" Kazuki replied. Kazuki then goes upstairs to his room and changes his clothes then comes back down.

"Ok. Kazuki. Are you ready for this intense, long, training!?" Kazuki's father asked. Kazuki's face turns serious and so does his voice.

"Yes...I'm ready." Kazuki replied.

"Ok. Good. Now sit down and touch the outlet. Focus on your breathing and the lightning flowing steadily within your body." Kazuki's father said. Kazuki sits down and puts his hand on the outlet then closes his eyes and takes one deep breath. Everything goes black. A zap of bright lightning. Kazuya appears.

"Hello, Kazuki." Kazuya said.

"Hello, Kazuya." Kazuki replied.

"So your ready for our lesson I see....." Kazuya said.

"Yes. What's first?" Kazuki asked.

"Well first we learn control." Kazuya replied. Kazuya takes a moment to think.

"AH! Yes! Of course! Ok. Kazuki. First you will learn lightning summoning." Kazuya said.

"Ooooo. Sounds interesting and cool!" Kazuki replied.

"So first you take a breath, close your eyes, and hold out your hand. Focus on the lighting flowing, then deliver it to wherever you want it. For now go for your hand. Like the lightning sword technique. But you want to make a ball for now. To learn summoning and control. This lightning ball technique is called 'lightning ball'....that's all. It's not very special. You make it touch your enemy they will get shocked, then you make it zap/explode at them to blow them away and hurt them. Zues from Greek mythology uses something similar to this for peasants that he wants to zap. And a special black haired charater from a famous anime also uses something similar. Now try it" Kazuya said. Kazuki focuses on his lighting and zaps of lighting start to come out of his hand, but they're just blanks. He tries again and again, but it's so much harder than you think. He continues, and after an hour he gets a deformed lightning ball that is constantly changing and is not at all steady.
