After the game, Willow went to the grocery store to buy some ingredients for cooking. Once done, Willow headed home.
When Willow arrived home, he took off his shoes and went straight to the kitchen to prepare a meal. While cooking, he suddenly felt an ominous aura. Concerned, he decided to investigate. Stepping outside, he saw a huge figure destroying houses. Shocked, Willow identified the creature as a "Miro," a type of beast that usually wandered in the forest. Confused, he thought, How could it be here in the city?
As Willow pondered, a loud bang interrupted his thoughts. Someone had attacked the Miro, but the creature was unharmed. Angered, the Miro turned toward the attacker—a girl—and struck her, knocking her unconscious.
Willow was stunned but knew he had to act quickly. He chased after the Miro and instinctively tried to use his Iso. Suddenly, a small gadget appeared in his hands. Though unfamiliar with it, Willow activated the device. To his surprise, the gadget crawled onto his body and merged with him, triggering a transformation.
As the Miro prepared to strike the unconscious girl again, its hand was suddenly severed. The beast roared in pain and shock before retreating into the shadows.
The girl, regaining consciousness, looked at Willow in awe and asked, "Hey, who are you?get out of here there's a Miro!"
Willow scuffed then said " Don't worry it's gone."
The Girl confused then said "what?" She stand's up then looks around She saw A Miro running and The girl was Stunned the girl looked at Willow then asked him "Hey, who are you? Get out of here! There's a Miro!"
Willow scoffed and said, "Don't worry, it's gone."
The girl, confused, asked, "What?" She stood up and looked around. Suddenly, she saw a Miro running. Stunned, she turned to Willow and asked, "Who are you?"
Willow responded in a serious tone, "I am Central M, but you can call me CM for short."
The girl furrowed her brows and asked, "What kind of Iso is that?"
Willow smirked, then disappeared into thin air.
The girl stood there, stunned once again. She was shocked by his speed and strength—how he defeated the Miro with just one move.

Willow, now tired, returned home. As he walked into the kitchen, he realized his food was burning. He had forgotten to turn off the stove. Panicking, he hurried to turn it off, only to find the food completely burnt. Sighing in frustration, he decided to buy groceries again.
At the store, while picking out ingredients, Willow saw the same girl he had saved earlier. Trying to stay calm, he acted normal and focused on his shopping.
The girl spotted him and followed him. Noticing this, Willow started to panic but quickly calmed himself down.
"Where are the fruits?" the girl asked him.
Willow, pointing toward an aisle, replied, "Oh, it's just there on aisle one."
The girl, still suspicious of his voice, paused for a moment before calming down and saying, "Thank you, sir."
Willow exhaled in relief, quickly finished buying his ingredients, and hurried home.

When he got home, the sun was already setting. He removed his shoes, went straight to the kitchen, and began preparing a meal again. Once done, he moved to the living room, turned on the TV, and ate while watching. After finishing, he headed to his room to lie down and think about everything that had happened that day.
While lost in thought, there was a sudden knock at the door.
"I'm coming, stop knocking!" Willow shouted as he got up to answer.
When he opened the door, an overwhelming aura washed over him. The person standing before him whispered something inaudible, then disappeared in an instant.
Willow's heart raced. Shocked and confused, he slowly closed the door and returned to his room, trying to make sense of what had just happened. But the more he thought about it, the more restless he became.
Deciding to let it go for the night, he crawled into bed and drifted off to sleep.
---The Next day
An alarm went off.
RING RINGGG RINNGG!!
Willow groaned as the sound woke him up. He was too tired to move, but eventually, he forced himself out of bed. Then he remembered—it was Saturday. He didn't have school today. Feeling relieved, he stretched and headed to the kitchen to prepare a meal.
As he was cooking, something unusual happened. His Iso began to glow. The glow caught Willow's attention immediately. He froze, staring at it in confusion. The glow shifted between red, orange, and pink. Willow was both shocked and puzzled.
Suddenly, a person appeared beside him out of nowhere. Startled, Willow stepped back, his heart racing.
The stranger chuckled and said, "Don't be scared, kid. I won't bite."
Still wary, Willow asked, "Who are you?"
The person smirked, straightening up as if getting into character. "I am your Iso," they announced confidently.
Willow's jaw dropped. "What?! My Iso?!"
The person—no, his Iso—laughed. "Yes, I am your Iso. Call me Central. I'm here to train you and make your Iso stronger."
Still processing this strange revelation, Willow hesitated, then said, "Uh… can I finish making my meal first?"
Central grinned and nodded. "Go ahead. I'll wait."
After finishing his meal, Willow followed Central outside. They arrived at a clear, grassy field. Central turned to him and said, "I brought you here because this is where I used to train myself. Fun fact: I was the only person to wield the Unknown Iso—until you got yours."
Willow blinked, surprised. "What do you mean?"
Central smiled. "Your Iso is different. Unlike others, your Iso is a gadget, not just a weapon or ability. And yours isn't just legendary—it's mythical. Your Iso has the power to destroy mountains with a single slash of a sword."
Willow's eyes widened in disbelief. "Seriously?"
"Yes," Central said with a serious nod. "But you'll need to practice to unlock that kind of power. So let's get started."
"The first step to unlocking your Flash ability—the power to move as fast as lightning—is speed training," Central said. "Run 10 miles. Once you're done, we'll test your stamina."
Willow's eyes widened in disbelief. "What?! That's my limit!"
Central crossed his arms, unfazed. "I don't care. Do it."
With a reluctant, lazy expression, Willow began running.
By the time he reached 5 miles, his legs felt like lead, and he stopped to catch his breath.
Central, noticing him slow down, yelled, "Hey! Don't stop! If you do, I'll add another 10 miles!"
Groaning in frustration, Willow forced himself to keep running. After what felt like an eternity, he finally finished the 10 miles. Exhausted, he collapsed onto the ground.
Central walked over, placed his hand on Willow's chest, and said, "Relax." A warm energy spread through Willow's body as Central healed him and restored his stamina.
Willow, stunned by the sudden burst of energy, stood up with renewed strength. "I'm ready!" he said confidently.
After the stamina test, however, exhaustion crept back into Willow. Central patted his shoulder. "That's all for today. It's late. Head home and rest. We'll continue on Saturday."
Relieved, Willow nodded and headed home. Once there, he kicked off his shoes, dragged himself to his room, and flopped onto his bed. Within moments, he was fast asleep.
