Last days of training.

CHAPTER 19

"DID YOU JUST JUMP 10 METERS UP?!"Victor.

"Huh? Yeah so?"

" `Yeah so` she asks"Victor facepalmed.

"Release the bird."Ivy.

He stretched out his hand towards the bird and it began to fly again.

"So how many times can you use that?"Ivy.

"I've not really checked."

She picked up a pebble and threw it at him,he stopped it.

"One....."Ivy

She threw another one,he stopped it.

"Two....."Ivy

They kept repeating this until...

"Fifthteen..."Ivy.

"I guess I have an unlimited amount of uses."Victor.

"Is your arm tired?"Ivy.

"No, not really,why?"Victor.

"Let's try this with something heavier"Ivy.

They were rocks about the sizes of a head. she threw three at him.

"Woah!"

He stopped them.

POV: Victor.

It's.....heavy?

She threw seven more at him.

"Tch!!"Victor strained.

He couldn't hold on to them anymore,he let go and they all flew by him.

Note,time containment just traps an object in a pause but it doesn't remove a projectile's momentum once it's in motion,so if he releases his time containment on a bullet that's in front of him he will get hit.

"Just as I'd thought,you have a limit,your concentration can't hold on to things that are too heavy for you to concentrate on,your senses would be scattered and you won't be able to keep it using it."Ivy.

"One more test please,i want to check it on something heavier this time."Victor begged.

"Okay,but if you can't handle it drop it!"Ivy.

She pushed a 5 feet-tall boulder down, victor caught it with his time containment but he was strained she threw another one down but he couldn't stop that one,it went to the bottom and got destroyed.

POV: Victor

Concentrate!

Concentrate!!

"AHHH,CONCENTRATE!!!"Victor.

He couldn't hold on any more it dropped and crashed to the ground.

Victor fell to his butt exhausted,from both his training and his power check.

"Well at least now we know your limits, lucky you found this out now and not in the middle of a fight"Ivy said while patting him on the head.

"Rest up in the evening where going to focus on improving your bloodlust skill and maybe some of your other abilities as well"Ivy.

She left him alone on the top and went back down to hunt some food.

POV: Victor.

Phew!

"I've been soo busy lately that i haven't been in my head at all."

"Ahhh this breeze is so refreshing"

"The air up here is so clean,the boarding house was good too but it felt alittle stuffy, and back at where i lived alotta cars pass by there so I'm mostly breathing fumes"

"Hahaha"

He broke into laughter.

And those guys jane,kelvin,briggs,they seem pretty nice,always friendly with me even though I'm new, keeping me company.... almost to good to be true considering i don't really like being around too many people.

I feel way too good,that it's almost annoying.

Where is the rage i felt towards the bastards that killed my parents?

Why am i acting buddy-buddy with everyone.

I even tried to be edgy when anna came to pick me up,even toward my sis as well.

But i guess i can't really be edgy all of a sudden it's not in me...or is it?

Nah definitely not in me.

He took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

Well in the meantime i can just go on this mission they gave me, finish it as quickly as possible,the agency helps me find my murderers,i do them in, and i can just live the peaceful, uneventful life I've always wanted, maybe even have a girlfriend.... I don't see the last one happening but the rest should hold up.

Many people would kill for powers to control time, they'd probably use it for gains and here i am fantasizing about a mediocre lifestyle,well fuck it,i didn't choose to have these powers and if i could i would give them away (Into the right hands of course).

He lays down on the ground looking at clouds.

They sky is so pretty,hehe,the clouds almost looks like heaven,so puffy and calming.

I wish to be a cloud.....or maybe not before another unexpected wish goes through,hehe.

Oh, and what's Anna's problem with me anyway?

Did i do something wrong?

......Oh yeah the class first impression thing,i guess that's a reason to be mad but it seems like she hates me or something,i better make up with her,i may act like i don't care but she is still close to me like Kelvin and jane,i can't go on letting her be mad at me for such a trivial thing,when these days are up and they come to pick me up I'll apologies.

Why am i thinking of anna all of a sudden?

Either I'm wayyy to considerate or I've been in the sun too long.

*RUSTLE*

Victor turned over and saw a baby bird about to be eaten by a snake.

He time contained the snake and threw it far way,he then picked up the bird to check for injuries,it had been bitten by the snake before he noticed.

"Hey,hey are you alright?!"Victor said worriedly.

The bird was slowly dying.

"Hold on I'll go to Jane!"

He picked up the bird and ran down the through the forest.

He ran as fast as he could also trying to reduce movement in his arms so the bird doesn't fall off.

"Jane!!!"

He arrived.

"Jane please help this bird it's dying, it's still a baby,it can't die now!!"

Jane look confused at what he was talking about.She tried sucking the poison out and applying hot water on it but it didn't work.

The bird got weaker,it couldn't even stand anymore,it just layed there, breathing slowly.

"Sorry kid but there's nothing i can do about this maybe the best you can do is take it back to it nest to where his mother is,it should be better than dying in a strangers arms."Lyn said while holding shoulder.

Victor left Ivy's place to look for where the nest was, back at the top of the training grounds.

He spotted an older bird looking around,it had the same pattern on it's body as the baby he was holding,it was the mother of the bird and coincidentally it was the bird he used his time containment on.

"I-i caused this?"Victor said to himself.

"You were minding your own business and i stopped you that's why your baby's dead."Victor had a little tear in his eye.

The older bird flew towards him and landed Infront of his feet,he put the baby down and walked away with the words "I'm sorry."

Since he could feel the intention of the bird it made him feel worse since the bird was very sad at the death of her baby.

He took it back to the tree of it's nest and buried it there and left. He went back to Ivy's place to take a nap to forget about today's event.
