Chapter 1: My sleep schedule is fvcked

"ugh! why is it so hard to go back to sleep when you wake up??!"

I sat up on my bed and stared into the darkness ahead of me. I couldn't really see everything around me cause it was like 3am and it was dark, but I could make out the edges of everything here and there, every day since the past one week I've been struggling with my sleep. Like straight up the bags under my eyes are heavier than the ones my parents pack whenever we need to go on a 2-day trip! I'm getting tired of it, sometimes I end up awake cause my mind worked out random lyrics while I was sleeping, sometimes my dreams are weird, other times it's just my brain working overtime and me waking up with the most random thoughts ever.

The only problem was I didn't know what to do right now.. I'm only allowed to leave the house after 4am so I had one more hour to go before I could leave for a run, I couldn't workout any lyrics either, If I played the guitar then my parents would wake up, jeez how much more irritating could this get?? I was left with 1 last choice, which was to have my self room concert, I opened my phone for the 3rd time in 15 minutes and turned on my mobile data. I went through a few songs in my playlist before choosing my vibe and finally stopped on "It's not a phase - Jessi Paege, Lucy and La Mer"

I loved this song so much, I started vibing to the song while lightly dancing around my room lip-syncing to the lyrics. Soon enough 30 minutes passed, I was done with, 'I kissed a girl', 'Girls', 'Montero', 'Shake it off', 'Bad blood' and many other random songs here and there. Finally I could get ready to leave for my morning run! I brushed my teeth and washed my face, lastly I fixed up my hair a little and left my room at last. You might be curious why I didn't change, well that's cause I didn't need to, I was wearing pajamas and an extremely oversized shirt, I always wear a sports bra so that wasn't a big problem for me. Plus no one's ever awake at 4 so who cares about what I look like. I strapped my phone to my arm with the phone holder thingy, you know what I mean and locked my door before running off through the streets.

And now since we're at it, this is probably the right time to tell you why I like running! It's cause I can run super fast, If you assumed that I wasn't human with my introduction you were RIGHT! good job! In my present we have human test subjects except that we aren't made by mad scientists entirely and we aren't treated like objects. So a certain amount of kids/new born babies every year are injected with one of the weird liquids made in labs, it's claimed as an inhuman boost by the government, Some get speed, some get the ability to fly, some get invisibility, some get elemental based powers? idk what to call but yeah we get random stuff here and there. It may seem like a crazy thing to you but by the time you reach us it's already normalised so we don't really mind being injected with weird liquid at birth, it's almost become unnatural to be completely human and it's hard to find a person that is, y'know?

My mother has the ability to fly and my father has the ability to control fire to an extent of course, which resulted in me, once I was born I was injected with the extreme speed liquid or something and now I have 3 inhuman powers. I kinda like it tho, I always love flying to my class instead of using the stairs when I'm tired.

Anyways, I'll tell you more about that later, I ran at full speed to my favourite place, it was a park like place, it had an outdoor gym and also an absolutely awesome swing! I mostly work out my arms here and stretched a bit, then I sit on the swing for 30 minutes and leave back for home.

1 hour passed by quickly and soon enough I ran back home to get ready for high school.
