章節 6: Training (2)

After that leave, school was the same, and I shifted my main focus to my body and meditation. I wanted to fly as soon as possible but all I could do was jump very high. It was a good thing my house was so far out from the town and from anyone's watch for that matter. I could let myself loose and was now starting to help out my dad on the farm too, I just did everything fast. I wanted my brain and hand eye coordination to keep up with my body's increasing agility.

One day I told mom and dad about my increasing powers and that I have an eidetic memory with a perfect recall which basically translated to I remember everything that happened during my childhood. I just said that they are still my parents and I love them and did not continue the topic after that, mom hugged me and told me that I am their gift from heavens and one day the whole world will get to know my name.

I just kept imagining myself flying in a red cape that night. I was surprised that they did not ask me questions, nor did I ask them to show me that ship, it's too early for that. Sometimes I just love how simple and loving my parents are.

The heat vision, I did practice it but not much. At least once a week, I would run fast and go very far in the mountains which were almost outside of Kansas, find an open space near a river and use it on the ground or the rocks or the river itself.

I will focus on my eyes and look at the target and think that I want to burn it and then my eyes will start feeling hot. From my perspective it looked like I was firing red beams and wherever they went they would heat up the thing, I could kinda increase and decrease the intensity. In the start it did not last long, almost 3-5 seconds and then my eyes would feel itchy for a while. I will resume doing that again after 5 minutes.

Over time I was getting better at it, lasting almost 30 seconds on low intensity. I blasted a rock bigger than me when I used the full intensity from the start which I could keep up for just 2 seconds. I had a big goofy smile that whole day, imagining myself using my heat vision against darkseid's omega rays.

At school I was getting popular, my class teacher asking if I wanted to skip this class and take a higher class exam. I refused and so did my parents. I know that when my abilities mature I would be able to consume knowledge at a very fast rate and so I was not worried about completing my studies faster, I wanted to have a normal popular school life for a change which I couldn't in my previous life.

I knew the years were messed up in this DC universe, so everything would be relative to me time wise or would change a lot from canon. So I knew that probably nothing would happen to Nora Allen the mother of Flash on 18th March, 2000. This day flash and reverse flash went back in time for a fight and reverse flash kills his mother which gave birth to Flash in a way.

But I was only 8 years old and Barry was 12 when this happened and he is supposed to be younger than me, so probably wouldn't happen this year. And even if I know where Central city is confronting reverse flash at this point of time is just stupid. And he would definitely not let me interfere with his plans.

So in September when I heard that a new movie called "The Mark of Zorro" is going to be released in theatres I was half expecting it as my future best friend will also be 8 this year in Gotham.
