Digital ambitions

The bright lights of Central City at night were mesmerizing as I strolled through the streets, my newly acquired skill of Lightning Manipulation lingering in the back of my mind. The city had taken on a different charm after witnessing the Flash's heroics, and I was eager to explore more of its iconic locations.

My path led me to CC Jitters, the famous coffee shop known for its association with metahumans and various pivotal events. Stepping inside, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air. The place buzzed with chatter, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia, even though this world had only existed in fictional stories for me until now.

As I ordered a cup of coffee and found a seat by the window, I observed the diverse crowd. The conversations ranged from mundane topics to animated discussions about metahuman sightings and the latest news. It was clear that Central City was no stranger to the extraordinary.

Sipping on my coffee, I pondered my next move. The events in the Flash series had always fascinated me, and now being a part of this world, I felt a strange connection to the characters and their story.

The decision was made—I would head back to my apartment. I needed to understand more about the life of Matt Jones, the body I now inhabited. As I walked through the city, I couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. It was an odd sensation, as if the city itself was aware of my presence.

Arriving at my apartment, I took a moment to appreciate the familiarity of the place. It was neat and tidy, reflecting the disciplined life Matt Jones had led. Sitting down, I decided to delve into the memories stored within this body.

The revelation about Matt's parents hit me like a ton of bricks. They had put him in an orphanage, and from there, he managed to secure a scholarship for high school. It was a journey marked by resilience and determination. After high school, Matt pursued a degree in computer sciences, completing it in just two years due to a partial scholarship.

The memories painted a vivid picture of Matt's past, and it became clear why he was drawn to the world of programming and computers. It resonated with me, and I decided to build upon his foundation.

With my current situation, the urgency to navigate through this Flash-inspired universe became apparent. The first step in my plan was to enhance my programming and hacking skills. It seemed ironic—I, the intruder into someone else's life, was now set to embark on a path of digital intrusion.

I set up my laptop, tapping into the city's Wi-Fi, and began my journey into the world of programming. The keyboard clicked rhythmically as I delved into coding, drawing on the knowledge stored within Matt's memories. It was a strange experience—learning through the lens of someone else's life.

The newfound skill resonated within me, unlocking a deeper understanding of the digital realm. I continued to immerse myself in the intricacies of programming, exploring languages and algorithms with a voracious appetite for knowledge.

As I progressed, the temptation to venture into hacking became irresistible. I rationalized it as a means to an end—an opportunity to secure resources in this unfamiliar world. The city's underbelly hid its secrets, and I aimed to exploit them for my own survival.

My focus shifted from ethical coding to the darker arts of hacking. It was a risky path, but the allure of gaining an upper hand in this universe was too compelling to resist. The city's digital network became my playground, a vast landscape of potential.

As lines of code danced across the screen, I could feel the surge of power coursing through me. The skill of Hacking emerged, its potential unfolding before me.

The thrill of breaking through digital barriers only fueled my desire for more. My skills in programming and hacking soared, reaching level 3 in a matter of hours. The knowledge that had once resided in Matt's memories now blended seamlessly with my own understanding.

"Damn the diffrence between level 1 and level 3 are insane like no joke it went from creating simple websites to being able to make a cyber security app that is a level above the current ones. Thats actaully not a bad idea... okay its decided im going to make a cyber security app thats better than the rest and then make it free for 3 months and then it would be 2 dollers a month. Sounds like a plan. Another is before i try to start hacking into so crime bosses account for their money i should get my hacking up to level 5 cause im pretty sure by that level no one in central city would be able to track me well possible Wells or Cisco but I should be able to delete all my tracks even if they were interested in it. But it's really hand that programing and hacking skill help level each other up."

After that I continued untill my skills in hacking and programming had reached level 4.
