If I was to guess I would need...five months, maybe six to recover fully from it? If I do this again...I don't think I'll recover after a short nap.
This did set limits on my powers, but, I'm hoping against hope here that eventually my body would adjust. But either way, I could still get new abilities, though it would take longer than I thought before.
If I recall correctly I started showing off Drew's powers some time after school during the afternoon. So maybe I need to be more physical, more active for it to kick in. It was around 4 in the afternoon now, I really slept in, so I'm guessing I won't get any results until much later.
I grabbed my coat and walked out of the cabin, I took a deep breath and smelt the fresh sea breeze, I could see the ocean from here. I smiled, maybe next time I should bring Felicia, we could spend the weekend together, I'm sure we could figure out something to do.
I found a small trail near the cabin I was staying at, this entire place was actually near a campsite, so it stands to reason there were many trails into a forest.
I began walking and as I did I found myself growing tired quickly. I began to sweat, heat up and even panting so much I couldn't move easily. It was like I was wearing a fat suit! Everything felt so difficult to move!
I grumbled and sat down on a rock figure big enough to support my weight as I took off my jacket, no point keeping this on. I waited until I felt myself get better, the weight left my body and I could move again.
I took off into the woods once more, slowly gaining back my stamina. Eventually the trail circled around and I was back to the cabin, though now I found myself hungry.
I got into my car and drove into town, it was just a few miles away. I stopped at the first fast food place I found, a Wendy's. I walked in and ordered enough food to feed three men, the cashier gave me a weird look but shrugged.
By the time I ate my meal and and left the joint it was already dark. I moved to the parking lot and noticed people standing around my car gawking, at it. They looked like local kids, one wore a hoodie, the 'Torches'. Three girls in pretty little skirts and four guys, by the way they looked they were probably jocks.
"Can I help you?" I asked the gathered crowd.
One of the jocks looked at me, "yeah, is this your car?"
I nodded, "yes. And?"
"This is so cool!" one girl with dark brown hair and a healthy bust called out. Her locked her eyes on me and gave a charming smile that creeped me out. Suddenly my spider sense went off, something was wrong, I could feel it. These kids...they weren't normal.
"Where did you get this?" the other girl asked batting her pretty little eyelashes at me, "like, it's super retro!" She had black hair and was of asian decent, tall with smooth legs.
I shrugged, "family gift," I looked at them, the jocks had glazed looks in their eyes, the girls...they looked at me like a piece of meat.
"You know, you should totally take us out for a spin," the third girl with short blonde hair asked as she winked at me, again, spidey senses went off.
"Ah, maybe later," I told them, moving past them and getting into my car. I was just about to pull away when a hand slammed onto my window cracking it. My eyes widened in horror, that was bullet proof glass! How did a human break it?!
"Get out," the jock who's fist cracked my window growled, "now!"
I hit the gas and reversed out quickly not caring about running them over, these kids weren't normal man! As I drove away I could see the girls glaring at through the mirror, something wasn't right.
I drove straight to my cabin and locked the doors. I looked out my windows and found nothing outside, I felt stupid for acting so paranoid, honestly I did, I could have taken them out without a sweat, but Peter Parker wasn't a superhero, so I had to act the role.
It didn't make sense, why did my spider sense go off? Those girls...they were acting weird. I sat down with my laptop and went online, searching for the high school those girls belonged to, 'The Torches'.
It took me a while but I found the school, but the reason it took me so long to figure it out was this, the Torches? They were all dead. Or more specifically the last batch of students were dead.
The class of 92', nearly two decades ago the school had sent a bunch of students off to a field trip, only they all crashed and died in a bus crash. The school was sued by all the parents and went under. The Torches were all gone.
Now my first thought is that the girls simply wore their parent's old hoodies, maybe their parents were old friends from that school so that's how they all knew each other. But then I pilled up the pictures of the teenagers that died and on the very bottom were the pictures of the three girls.
