A sign of power.

My eyes open slowly, as morning light seeps into my eyes.

The blur from the sun peirces my eyelids, I blink a few times as I stand up.

My dad is resting on a tree,his face calm with his glasses on the grass. I walk over to him, and shake him awake "dad....hey dad, I have a question"

His face tenses, as he opens his eyes "jakai? Oh hey son.....what..did ya wanna ask?"

"Are there any boosts in my strength when I continue this training?"

'It's a random question to ask my dad, but I think that maybe I'll be slightly stronger than the average person with my abilities starting to awaken'

"Son...there's something I gotta tell you to answer it, kinda. When your powers are still dormant after the sign, that gives you a higher limit"

I ask what a higher limit is, he explains more energized.

As I listen closely, a higher limit means my physical limits are better than lots of people. I'm stronger than most bodybuilders if I keep training.

I do my workout, with less stress on my body due to my increasing strength. I feel a slight warmth in my chest but shake it off, thinking it's just from my heart beating fast.

I do my jog around the forest, heaving and gasping for air from the intense jog. I scan for the skeleton I saw yesterday but i don't see anything, 'I just hope I don't see it again'

I remember my dad talking about my mom's abilities, not just energy blasts. But also a technique only she has, "energy blades" its like a foam of energy forming from your lower wrist.

It shapes into a bladelike form, and slices things easily. It applies no weight to the user, the strength of the energy blades comes from the strength of the user.

'I hope it's genetic, if it is ill have fun chopping wood,and food'.

I stop jogging, as the feeling in my chest somehow reappears. My breathing becomes harder, as my chest burns up.

My shirt has I small circle burning fire forming around the center of my chest. I fall down to my knees as the burning continues, I writhe around in pain.

'What the....hell? I was just fine a few moments ago' the pain subsides, as a small explosion, only 5 feet away from my body makes a small boom.

I stand up fast, as I look around myself the burnt grass, 5 feet from where I'm standing is from my explosion. I don't feel any powers or a sudden surge of strength, just a empty sense of confusion.

For some reason my chest burned my shirt, forming a hole around the area. As my pain went away a small explosion happened coming from my body. But it isn't the explosion to release my powers, its....different?

I start walking around, tracing my steps to find something that could've caused what happened. Maybe I'm hallucinating....or it's that I'm different from other awakened.

'Anyways I need to finish my running, so I'll just run back'

I sprint hard, as my body gets filled with vigor my body aches in fatigue as I grit my teeth breathing hard. Almost there, It's so hard to run after being sore.

I reach my dad in a faster time than yesterday, my chest heaving from the run. My dad notices the burned circle around my chest, and he looks at me concerned.

"Son....? What is that."

Ch end.
