Chapter 3

After a good sleep, Rockie wakes up, he feels a weird pain on the whole right side of his body, trying to find where he was hurt, he found nothing, everything felt strange.

Rockie gets up, everything is weird and he is dizzy, he hears what seems to be a distorted whispering, he can't make out what words are said, he walks, feeling as if everything was very slow, it felt hard to walk, like he was underwater, the whispers got louder and louder the closer he got to the door, untill, he touched the door knob, and all the whispers stopped.

Feeling chills going down his spine, for some reason scared and anxious, he turned the knob, opening the door, it was so bright, it felt like nature, felt like going to heaven, the bright light shined brighter, until he heard something, his eyes opening wide, feeling sweat coming down his face, that's right, what he heard was... Water, he felt the water touching his foot, and then he looked down, water was coming from the door, not the bright room, but from inside a crack from the door.

He heard what sounded like a ocean, getting louder, louder and lounder, with more and more water, he coudn't move, he felt stuck, until, alot of water appeared, with such pressure he was thrown at wall, the water was rising quickly, in seconds it was filled, he was drowing, he felt death itself coming to him, until, he heard a whisper one last time. "Wake up"

Rockie wakes up in his room, like nothing happened, grasping for air all tough it was all fake. He gets up and looks at the clock... 13:20, he was late to school, 50 minutes late. He tought to himself "im already late, i might as well just take my time".

Changing clothes, eating breakfast, brushing his teeth, he looked at the clock, 13:44, Rockie wasn't sure if he should go to school, what would people think after all? He just randomly decided to dye his hair Black? But well, at this point who cares, he tought to himself.

As he was thinking if he should go or not, he hears knocking on his door, seems like someone is there, he goes up to the door, and opens it... It was the detective from yeasterday, Rockie was a bit confused, as he was told they would call him beforehand, so he asked "uh.. hi? Are you here because of yeasterday? I tought you guys were supposed to call me."

The detective nods and agrees, he says it's an part of the investigation, but not only about the investigation, they wanted to check his Energy scale, wich would define how powerful a person is, a average person with no power would be arround the scale of 70, and anyone stronger than the average arround 110, but a average person with powers would get a minimium of 1350, the energy of someone increseas by a huge ammount once a power is aqquired, with the highest ammount being found at 28750.

The detective after giving a brief explanation on how it would work, asks him to follow him, so he can take Rockie to a Energy Calculation Center (ECC), Rockie agrees and follows him.

While the detective is driving, Rockie is looking out the window, wondering how would this go, if he would end up being strong, or weak, he coudn't wait for it, while he was happy for this life changing opportunity, he knows that having powers would lead him to dangerous work, and he would probably have to leave college to go for the path of a "Hero".

The car stops, as Rockie looks outside, a big building With a big letter E on the front, a very cleary luxirious place. Rockie gets out and so does the detective, and the detective leadd Rockie onto the building.

He passes by the reception and goes to the evaluation room, it's a room with weird metallic spheres all arround the room, and a Bright neon white star, the room also has a glass window on the side (other than the door he came from of course), where a person would be watching and looks at the machine for results.

Rockie goes near the star and follows the recepsionist structions, wich was "kneel down, bow, and focus your mind, create a replica of it in your head, and imagine the star fusing with your body", so he does, he goes to his knees, bows to the star, closes his eyes and starts to imagine, he thinks of himself, and focus at the star like it's part of his body, the star floating to him, stops at his chest, and expands, all arround his body, like a omnipotent being, fully white, fully covered by the star and it's faith, and then, black.

Rockie opens his eyes, and the star makes a sound, it starts spinning, faster and faster, and starts changing color with a weird colorfull energy coming from you to the star, it goes through all colors, and slowly it stops spinning, stopping slowly with a... White color.

Rockie is very much confused, he looks through the glass and notices the man behind the window with a... Not very interessed type of face, but Rockie doesn't care, he just wants to become someone that people know, he wants to become a hero.
