《Reality Breakers (Hiatus)》Chapter 5: Identity and Thinking Wise

Next day
Lexo woke up and got out of bed. He noticed that small cuts from yesterday were closed up.
Phew, no need for band-aids that would have been annoying.
Thank god they didn't pay much attention to me yesterday, I would have been in serious trouble if I had to come up with something.
Lexo walked into another door beside his bed which was an indoor closet and pulled some clothes out, as he then proceeded to the daily hygienic procedure.
Lexo decided to look at the mirror. He had blond curly hair with clear brown eyes and 2 freckles on his left cheek. He was wearing black jeans with a dark blue sweater.
After he left the bathroom, he packed his stuff for today's lessons and left his room to go downstairs. He walked in the kitchen and grabbed the money on the table as he saw his brother sitting behind his laptop again.
"Good morning bro." Lexo greeted.
"Good morning shr.. I mean dude." Genzo corrected himself.
"Oh wow, being nice today huh?" Lexo said surprised.
"Don't push your luck Lexie." Genzo gave him a glare.
"Haha okay okay. Where is Uncle?" Lexo asked.
"Sleeping on the couch after hours of trading plus watching the Bloomberg channel like a zombie." Genzo answered.
"Ah, that seems like him, anyways I'm off to school." Lexo waved.
Genzo waved back as Lexo walked out of the kitchen leaving the house.
While walking on the streets heading towards his school Lexo had a thought.
Hmmm.. Yesterday Blitzia also mentioned about me not knowing who I am. I never put any thought into that. Like my name is Lexo Reign and I am a 17 year 2nd year highschool student. Eh I guess this has to do with identity or something. If I like hamburgers, is that something a special part of me? But wait millions upon millions of people like hamburgers… Wasn't an identity created to differentiate you from the rest? Hmm I guess I could ask myself what makes me Lexo Reign, but I legit don't know…. Welp this train of thought is getting nowhere.
After taking some shortcuts he arrived at the school gate, where Lucas was already waving his workbook and Vannesa was standing next to him with an annoyed face.
Lexo walked up to them as Vannesa waved at him.
"Hey Lexo, want some of my notes as usual!" Lucas said with a smile.
"No, I actually did it myself this time. Thanks though." Lexo replied.
"Woah Lexo never would have thought this side of you. You should take his exemple Lucas." Vannesa commented.
"What do you mean I always do my homework!" Lucas said, confused.
"Not that I meant to improve as a person, since you are legit a moving cringefest." Vannesa insulted.
"Hey why gotta hurt me like this Vannesa? I am an amazing, splendid, godly, sexy ugh did I say godly already haha yeah." Lucas replied.

Vannesa faceplamed
"Let's just head to class." She said.
"What do we have now?" Lucas asked.
"Physics." Lexo answered.
"Ah okies lets go!" Lucas shouted.
After Physics, Calculus and Geometry break has started as Lexo and his friends just left the classroom as they start to head towards the canteen.
While Lucas and Vannesa were talking, Lexo was walking around with a thoughtful face. Vannesa turned around and asked.
"You have been thinking for a while now Lexo tells us what's on your mind."
"Here we go again with the philosophical stuff." Lucas commented.
"Hmm… Can you guys exactly tell what makes me.. uhh me?" Lexo asked.
"Oh great now you have an identity crisis too, don't worry my bro papa Lucas will teach you the way of being a charismatic god." Lucas poked a bit of fun.
"I'm sorry, but you are not charismatic in the slightest. More like a delusional brat. Dude my grandpa on his off days is more charismatic than you." Vannesa dissed.
Lexo couldn't help but laugh a bit.
"Vannesa you couldn't help it again huh?" Lucas said with a sigh followed by a slight smile.
"Sorry it's part of my personality." She replied.
"Anyways, let's answer your question." Vannesa said to Lexo.
“ You never used to do your homework until today. Uhh… hmm. We know you for 2 years now, but you never really stand out on anything. You follow us around and have chats, but we only have gone out a few times to chill. To be honest you can say that you are pretty bland.” Vannessa answered.
“Ouch! You’re not wrong though, but we like bland arse so don’t worry about it. We maties, man!” Lucas reassured him.
“Haha thanks.” Lexo replied.
I guess they are not wrong. I was never anything out of the ordinary.
Suddenly a person approached the 3 of them. It was a tanned boy with black spiky hair and beige eyes wearing a Gucci outfit.
“Hey dude.” He said to Lexo.
“Hey, excuse me but do I know you?” Lexo asked.
“Oh sorry I am Felix Reyez, a 3rd years” He introduced.
“Nice to meet you. I am Lexo.” Lexo replied.
“You know Lexo I have seen you go home alone a lot of times. I think you are a pretty cool guy, so how about we head home together today.” Felix invited.
Lucas suddenly remembered something and stood before Lexo.
“Wait… that face! I know you! A few years back at middle school you were a poor mofo that had various encounters with the police!”
“Lucas the hell are you doing!” Vannesa shouted.
Lucas ignored her and kept going.
“I heard your mom married some rich man and now you are a rich fucker! I call gold digging bullshit. People wanted to be friends with you in the past and you pushed them away by being a dick!” Lucas added.

“Lucas, that is low man! Felix sure let’s meet up today after school!” Lexo accepted the invitation.
Felix left saying:
“Ight see you there, Lexo and Lucas. I don’t know you personally, but I can tell you are a asshole.”
Vannesa immediately started to scold Lucas.
“It is not correct to say such things to that person!” Vannesa shouted.
Correct?! Huh?
“Pffft I don’t care about that. I know I have it by the right end. Lexo, make sure to keep your eyes out. You can’t trust those types of people.” Lucas responded.
With that said Lucas walked away and Vannesa and Lexo had lunch and after Creative Arts, Technologies and Spanish school was finally over.
Lexo walked out alone as Vannesa left earlier to look for Lucas. When Lexo finally arrived at the gate Felix was waiting for him.
“Lexo!”
“Felix.”
“Let's go, we have lots to talk about!”
Lexo and Felix started walking. They were talking about trivial things like, what they like to do in their free time, favourite food etc. After 10 of walking Felix suddenly said something.
“I know what you are Lexo.” Felix said with a serious face.
“What do you…” Lexo said with a confused tone.
“I know that you are a Reality Breaker.”
Lexo instantly jumped back for about 4 meters.
Darn it, I forgot about the superhuman abilities!
“I witnessed the battle between you and Blitzia it was amusing to see.”
Lexo didn’t hesitate a moment and shouted:
“Reality Break!”
“Reality Break!”
Both of them broke through reality.
“Now that nobody can hear and see us...” Lexo said
This is my chance to ask more about Reality!
“I would like to ask you a question!” Lexo added.
“I guess we can talk a bit before I seal your powers away. Now go ahead and tell me your question.” Felix smiled.
Time to hear his answer to the trivial question!
“What if you had the power to change the world, what would you do?” Lexo asked.
“Oh that.. Nothing because I have no desire to change the world, only my own situation. I want my family to get the peace they deserve!” Felix answered.
“Huh that doesn’t make sense! Don’t Reality Breakers all have Ideals to change the world into something better?” Lexo replied.
“Ha! It is stupid of you to asume that every Reality Breaker wants that! Listen, Lexo, get that idea out of your brain! That question is for one out of the 3 types of people. The ones that want to make the world a bigger place, the ones that want the world to stay the same and the ones that want to annihilate everything! Humans come in different shapes and sizes and if you don't look out you might get betrayed or even worse killed.” Felix explained.
Wait, that answer. I think it has to do with how the world is! I think I reached a step closer to what reality truly is!
“Tell me, what is reality!” Lexo questioned.
“That I cannot tell you it’s something that I have not fully discovered yet, but I have seen and gone through a lot of fucked up shit. I have learned that you can’t trust people and sometimes not even yourself! You have to realise that Reality is not only the world, but also the situation of each human on the planet. The fact that I was poor for years was my reality and mine alone. Until my mom married that alcoholic piece of garbage!!! Not that it matters though next year my mom will plan the divorce and he will lose 50% of all his hard work!” Flex told him.
“That is unfair!” Lexo yelled.
“Pfft you still don’t understand he is an asshole, he should have thought twice before doing all he did! Karma is a bitch! Enough I heard everything yesterday. You have nothing you stand for and hold no dedication for anything and you only have stupid convictions that will not get you anywhere!” Flex ranted.
“I guess I could say we are the same.” Lexo replied.
“Haha just maybe, but let our battle decide that.” Felix smirked.
Crap!
Felix held out his hand and rapidly started to shoot green blasts at Lexo. Where he as an reaction, swung his arms back in order to fly and evade the projectiles coming at him.
After dodging for a while Lexo also shot a few blasts back at him, but something happened.
Wait, I stopped flying!
Lexo was falling towards the ground.
“It’s not normal flight you moron! It's a jet flight. Your arms need to stay back in order to stay flying and there is no break! Don’t pay attention to the enemies you are fighting?!” Felix instructed.
Lexo listened to his instructions and swung his arms back again, resuming his flight.
“Why did you help me if you wanted to seal my powers!” Lexo wondered.
“You know, there is something every Reality Breaker has in common. They are always hostile towards each other, just maybe it's better to work together for a change so what do you say?” Felix proposed as he stopped firing the blasts and put his arm down.
Lexo was a bit skeptical about it but still decided to land in front of Felix.
“Sure why not.” Lexo accepted his offer.
“Let's shake hands on it.” Felix said.
“Sure!”
Lexo and Felix shook hands.
“Now let's go and do what was planned. I know a good place where we could grab a bite, follow me.” Felix said with a smile.
“Alright!” Lexo replied.
Felix and Lexo flew away together.
