S1 Chapter 4

Now, a week was remaining for the entrance examination for the Mutant Heroes Academy.

I was preparing myself to utilise my power at the most possible limit. I was now training my superspeed.

At the same time, my sister came in front of me with a glass of freshly made juice in her hand.

"Get some rest, bro," she said as she handed the glass of juice to me, "You've been practicing since morning. Why don't you take some rest?."

"No, I have to improve fast. I need to be prepared for the entrance exam," I replied.

"Well then, how about I give you some advice?," she continued.

"You?," I asked her.

"Yes, after all I've studied all the basics of mutant superpowers and how to improve them," she concluded.

"Yes, Yes, you've studied a lot. Now tell me how to improve my superspeed," I said.

"Alright. Now listen carefully. When you run, put all the force in your legs and try to break your own limits. In this way, you may be able to improve your ability," she said.

"Alright. I'll try what you said," I replied.

I drank some juice she had brought for me and then went back to my position, ready to run.

I tried to focus all the energy in my legs and sprinted off into the streets.

This time I was faster than the last time. But I knew that this wasn't enough.

I had to break through my limits and make myself stronger.

So I tried to focus more and more energy on my legs and constantly tried to break my limits.

And then, when I ran the second lapse, I felt something new.

Sparks of electricity ran around my body as I ran through the streets.

The superspeed was now producing electricity around my body.

I was surprised and so was my sister.

I could now use another superpower, that is, the power of electricity.

So within the last few days left, I entered closed door training.

I began to practice my new ability.

At first I tried to channel the electricity all around my body.

A few days later, I was able to mold the electricity into various shapes like knife etc.

I was very satisfied with the speed of my training.

And soon before the last two days remaining for entrance exam, I was out of the closed door training.

My mom and my sister were quite happy seeing me come out of training.

I took a quick shower and then headed to the kitchen for breakfast.

My mom brought the food and placed it on the table.

As soon as the food was placed on the table, I began gobbling it up.

But soon I could feel a death glare around me.

"Eat slowly, you may choke and do remember to save some for me. I'm not going to let you eat it all alone," she said as she came and sat beside me.

I agreed in affirmative and continued eating.

I spent the last two remaining days with my family. We chatted, we ate together, went out and had fun. Because, the Mutant Academy is a boarding institution and I and my sister didn't know when we could return home.

So we spent the remaining moments together, happily.

The day of departure finally came and I was totally prepared.

I went through my luggage again to check if anything was missing.

After checking my luggage properly I hugged my mom and my sister and bade them goodbye.

Professor All Might had arrived with a car to pick me up.

As soon as I rushed to the car, Professor yelled, "Good morning, Kayden Kun. You ready?"

"Yes, I am," I replied.

"Very well. Then shall we set off?" he asked.

I replied in affirmative.

We then set off on a journey to the MHA, Mutant Hero Academy.

Within a few hours, we were at the gate of the institution.

The academy building was huge. It was an amazing sight to see.

It was marvelous. It was as if it had descended from heaven.

I really wanted to study in MHA. But my stay would be decided after the entrance exams.

Of course, Mr Blake and Professor All Might rooted for me.

But it would be considered unfair in terms of others.

So I had to participate. I don't know if I can pass the entrance exams. But I am damn sure that I have prepared well.

I have worked hard day and night for this day.

I cannot afford to lose.

After getting a chance to enter this institute, why would I want to return.

I wanted to stay here and study with others.

So no matter what I have to win.

Professor All Might leaded me into the institute.

He was a great hero who was everyone's idol.

He was the symbol of peace for the people.

And now he was showing me around the school.

It was not because he was asked to do so by Mr Blake.

Instead it was because ever since he had started tutoring me, we had kinda become good friends.

Even though he was a S class hero in terms of strength, he was a very good person.

I looked with awe at the face of the symbol of peace.

He was now showing me around campus.

It was indeed a nice place. I was admiring my surroundings when I suddenly bumped into someone.

I was about to fall when I stood still in mid-air. It was telekinesis. Someone used telekinesis on me.

And soon I was back on my feet.

"Are you alright?" came a voice from behind.

I turned around to look. A girl, around my age, stood before me. Her white hair waving in the wind left behind the scent of roses.

With a smile on her face which could cheer anyone, she was staring at me.

"I'm sorry," I said, "I accidentally bumped into you."

"It's alright. You need not be worried. If you had fallen it would have been a bad luck for you, wouldn't it?" she said as she helped me up.

"Thank you for helping me," I said.

"It's alright. So see you later in the entrance exams," she said as she walked away.

"Oh ho, looks like you have made a friend on your first day of school, Kayden Kun," said Professor All Might who was grinning, watching the situation from behind.
