Advertisement
"Bye..... We'll finish up. Make sure to be here by 5."
"Alright. Won't miss it."
Alex made his way back home after that.
He tossed his hoodie aside as he fell in the couch. Turning on the TV, he played a little games before heading to his room.
*Chirp*
A notification came in.
Mutation notification: powers stabilized.
" Finally." he said to himself.
_______
"So.... Did you have fun?" Abigail. Moves around their room oraginzing some stuff talking to Julie who sat in her bed staring in the air empty minded.
"Mm." she nodded.
"Julie. What's wrong?"Abigail stopped as she came closer to Julie when she noticed she wasn't her usual self.
" Nothing. "
" Come on. " Abigail sat beside Julie," You can tell me. "
Julie flashed a playful smile at Abigail," We almost died today. "
" What! "Abigail abruptly stood up," Why didn't you tell me, are you joking right now?"
"What happened?"
"We almost got ran over."
"Why didn't you tell us earlier? Did you get hurt or something?" hurriedly Abigail checked Julie's body.
"No no. Nothing is sort happened." Julie laughed at her paranoid sister.
"Alex..." Ralph noticed Alex enter the lounge.
"Good after noon." Alex greeted.
"Good after noon." Ralph replied as he approached Alex smiling,"Now that you have stabilized your powers, guess what?"
"What?" Alex couldn't help his excitement as he looked into his uncles eyes.
"You can now officially join us."
"What really?"
"Yeah, well you and Joseph over there." Ralph pointed at the carefree teen munching on some potato chips watching TV.
"Wait. What?" Alex looked at Joseph.
Joseph, being not to far away heard the whole conversation. A mischievous smile forming on his face, he looked at Alex;"Sap kid."
"You can't be serious right?"
"Yes I am. Since he needs money for his mom's treatment. We can't just let him be out as the villain." Ralph said bemused by Alex's shock.
Alex had finally been allowed into the group after so much effort yet this kid just walks in and is already selected.
Why wouldn't he be shocked.

But he understood Ralph's explanation perfectly.
" And besides, we need to prepare for which ever organisation Gaia is working in. I don't think she's working alone."
"Alright alright." Alex simply sighed.
*Chirp* a notification came in.
Alex raised his wrist where his eyes could see and displayed the notification.
Mutation notification: new mutation: telekinesis, category: interlectual, location: brain. Lvl: 0
Alex's face lit up when he saw the notification. He finally had a power he could actively use. Why wouldn't he be delighted.
Ralph, who was standing infront of him couldn't help but ask, "Why the excited face?"
"New mutation, telekinesis."
"Hmmm..."
"That's perfect. I can now set your bracelet to receive emergency calls."
Alex left the hq quite happy.
Along the way, lec thought of which gift he should buy for Julie and Abigail.
He passed by the mall, to matching necklaces of which he finally got.
They were golden colored necklaces with a half heart at the bottom.
When he joined the hearts together it spelled for ever.
"Perfect!"he thought to himself.
But then, an alarm went off. Someone had stolen something.
And just then, three men carrying large black bags ran passed him.
And right behind them, police ran after them.
When the men saw they had nowhere else to ran, they pulled out guns from their bags.
"Shit!" one of the cops said pulling out his pistol.
"Stay where you are. Nobody move."one of the robbers said grabbing a little child who was arms length away from him.
He pointed his submachine gun at the little boy.
Although the cops had halted their steps, they still pointed their pistols towards the robbers.
" Put down your guns. "
The police were reluctant to do so prompting one of the robbers to shoot at the ceiling.
BANG!
The loud gun shot echoed through out the mall.
Everyone screamed in panic as they ran in different directions.
The mall now looked like a chicken pen.
The people all around ran aimlessly like headless chicken.
The reluctant police slowly lowered their guns as slowly and raised up their hands in surrender.
"Good." one of the robbers smiled very pleased, "Now don't try any funny business. Kick over the guns." he said.

Slowly by slowly, they withdrew with the little boy along with them.
At this point, Joseph had teleportes to the mall and met up with Alex.
Alex and looked for a private place to gear up.
For Joseph, he simply put his hoodie over his head and wore a mask that covers his nose and mouth.
"Stop right there." Alex and Joseph stood in between the cops and the robbers.
The robber a promptly turned back to see who dare stopped them.
As soon as they noticed the pair, they burst out into a loud laughter.
"Hahahaha. This is serious and business kids. We are real bad guys
Better turn around and leave before we hurt you. This isnt the time to play super hero."
They laughed again.
"Well... We're real good guys." Joseph stayed staring right into the man's eyes.
His eye sparking up and lighting electric blue.
The bemused smile on the robbers' face was replaced with a terrified frown. "Fuck! Metas!"
Immediately, they pointed their guns at Alex and Joseph.
The one that held the young boy moved to the guard rails and held the boy over. Threatening to throw him.
As Alex and Joseph were about to advance, they immediately halted when they saw this.
But then their bracelets flashed red twice.
Revealing playful smirks they advanced towards the robbers.
The robbers were immediately petrified with this.
"Why havent they halted?"
Immedistely, they attempted to pull the trigger.
But just as they were about to shoot, electricity bolted from Joseph's hands hitting the robbers hands that held the guns one my one.
Subconsciously forcing them to drop the guns.
Followed by which Alex, used telekinesis and pulled the guns to him.
The robber that held the boy seeing this, started shaking; "Don't come any closer. Or else I'll drop him." he said.
A ray of hope lit up in his heart when he Alex and Joseph halting their steps.
But then, something unexpected happened.
Alex and Joseph leisurely leaned against the guard rails.
"This place is beautiful."
"I know right."
"What is up with them? Don't they see what is going on." these questions filled the robber mind.
He surveyed his surrounding noticing that his companions had already been hand cuffed.
"Oh no."
Immedistely he let go of the boy letting him fall from several stories down to the ground.
But all this was useless. To Ralph who was as fast as light, the world came to a stand still as blue lightning pulsed around his body.
He couldn't help but laugh at the scared expression on the robbers face.
Now that the world was on a standstill, everything looked like a photograph.
He Immedistely jumped down to the ground right in time to catch the falling boy before speeding back up and putting cuffs on the robber.
Those who saw this scene could only see black speed in a mommemt besides the two robbers, then disappear and reappear downstairs catching the boy and placing him down then disappear again and reappearing next to the third robber putting hand cuffs on him then disappear again.
Joseph walked to the third robber and touched him sending electricity through his arm and onto the robbers body making him fall to the ground paralyzed.
He then picked up a blue disk from his pocket and threw it in the empty air.
As if it hit something, it formed a small explodion forming a small space crack in the air.
This crack slowly expanded and a blue portal was formed.
Immediately, both Alex and Joseph jumped though the portal.
Immediately, the portal shrank in the blink of an eye completely disappearing.
This whole incident caused an uproar in the entire mall.
Many had already pulled out their smart phones and had filled the whole incident from the very beginning.
And obviously, such things couldn't escape the media's attention.
The police took the robbers into custody with news reporters interviewing the witnesses of the incident.
But then, another portal formed and the hooded boy stepped out of it.
"Sorry.... I just need to grab a bottle." Joseph said apologetically walking to a vending machine and picking a cam of soda before jumping back through the portal and disappearing.
"Did you get that?" one of the news reporters asked her camera man completely forgetting she was live.
"Yeah."

Neophyte: Common Route
A story about self-discovery, interpersonal relationships, magic and magical creatures-- and a silent war. Marsha is about seven years past adulthood and still feels like a scared child in her parents' home. This is exacerbated when she discovers her father has apparently keyed up his destructive, sadistic habits-- leading to a mad dash out of the house with precious cargo in tow and only one idea where to go. This begins her journey, leading to a discovery that will change her life forever. And she never wants to go back. (Warnings: Lots of descriptions of abusive, sadistic and otherwise traumatizing and triggering behavior that a parent perpetuated toward a child or multiple children. Descriptions of violence, a main character with emotional issues that will be dealt with, and a whole lot of the 'aftermath' of battles in a war. Even a few descriptions of some of those battles. Things of that nature. If you can't handle one of those, please do not read.) {I had this idea to write a 'common route' and then 'romance routes' like they do in otomes? Book 1 is the common route, and then at book 2, you choose your love interest. Each of which is encased in their own book.}
