Lying inside an MRI machine, was nervous and slightly scared inside the round and magnificent tube.

 Just beside the room stood two men in lab coats. 

 There were men dressed in military uniforms and holding submachine guns.

  “Are you ready?” one of the doctors asked through the mic.

 “Do it.” the boy replied with a resolute tone. 

 The doctor nodded and pushed a button and the MRI machine began to give a low humming sound.

 Suddenly, the boy felt a sharp pain in his head, which made him scream in agony. He struggled to break free, but he was restricted. After a few seconds, the noise died down.
 
 Suddenly, an alarm began to blare and all the monitors displayed warning and error messages. The men were all shocked, and the uniformed men all cocked their guns and pointed them at the MRI machine. 


 The normal MRI machine began to glow and melt. One could tell that something was burning it.


 Suddenly, it exploded, sending the parts flying everywhere. Some even broke through the glass pane and hit some of the uniformed men.



 There was smoke everywhere and the men all stood up and looked in the direction of the MRI room. As the smoke cleared, a pair of red, cold, and burning eyes opened up and stared at them, sending shivers down their spines.

 Leo promises to use his powers for good and be the hero he wants to be. But, things did not to turn the way he wanted them to be


 Will Leo overcome the principalities he faces with himself and be the hero he wishes to be, or will he succumb to the ugliness and rage inside him?

The Crimson Phoenix.

After doing some research on phoenixes till morning, Leo stretched his body and yawned. He was still a bit tired but that didn't bother him much, as he had a case to solve. He went to the bathroom, freshened up carefully, and tried not to tamper with the artificial skins on his body, before preparing for school. 


He put on another hoodie and a pair of navy blue trousers. He also wore a nose mask which he made for himself. It was black with some red lines which formed a cool design on it and it covered both his nose and mouth. He went downstairs and found his aunt preparing breakfast. 


"Morning Aunt." He greeted and he sat on one of the stools in front of a kitchen counter. Both the dining room and kitchen were combined but since Leo was just going to have a quick breakfast, he preferred the kitchen stool instead of the dining table. Besides, Leo prefers eating there for many other reasons.
