Kamil hated school. He was a tin and frail guy. Kamil was also socially awkward and didn't have many friends, making him a target for bullies. He said to himself, "Patience, this school thing will be over in a couple years. I will become a software engineering student at university. After that, I will be someone who works from home and does not see human faces. "
A hand held Kamil's shoulder. This was Ali. He grinned and said, "Did you do my homework, nerd." Kamil said, "Yes, I did." He handed over some papers. Right at that moment, Ali felt a hand on his shoulder. This was Mehmet. With his bland face and imposing stature, he stared coldly at Ali.
Mehmet said, "Didn't I tell you Kamil is my friend, and he is under my protection?" Ali said, "I wasn't bullying him, right? Ask him." Kamil didn't want to give an answer. He was bad at confrontations. Mehmet grinned menacingly and said, "These papers, I assume homework which I believe you paid my friend to make." Ali nodded in fear. Mehmet started to tighten his hand, and Ali squeaked in pain. Mehmet said, "Ok, you got your homework. Let's see the money." Ali opened his wallet and brought out some money. Mehmet said, "Inflation these days, you know this is not enough." And once again, tighten his hand.
Ali brought out all the money and put those in Mehmet's hand. Mehmet said, "Next time you want some homework done, pay me. I am as good as Kamil. Ali ran away quickly. He didn't want to face Mehmet. But Ali swore and said, "You smuck, you might be stronger than me, but you angered Yaşar yesterday. He will not forgive you, and I will join his crew when he finally attacks you. When we have the numbers, what you are going to do."
With pain, Ali said those words aloud, then he noticed his mistake and ran away. Kamil turned to Mehmet and said, "Really, what are you going to do about Yaşar? He has many friends, and they will gang up against you." Mehmet smiled, "I already dealt with it. Just wait for the school exit.
Mehmet gave Kamil half of the money, pocketed the rest, and said, "Bargaining fee." Kamil smiled, he only befriended Mehmet for protection, but after they became friends, he started truly liking the guy. Despite his bland face and awkward behavior, Mehmet was nice to his friends, which were few in number.
Mehmet hated bullies. Before puberty, he wasn't both awkward and strong. He was just awkward. He got bullied a lot. But after puberty, he grows taller and stronger. He was still a social outcast with just a few friends, but nevertheless, because of his strength, he became less of a target for bullies.
In the school corridor, some girls led by Merve were mocking Hatice. This girl's face got burned as a toddler. She had a five cm burn mark on her left cheek. And because of it, some mean girls like to bully her. Mehmet hated bullies, but unlike people who bullied Kamil, which could kick asses because they were boys, he could not do anything about bullying among girls.
Merve told Hatice, "I heard Engin invited you to his birthday party. He is a nice guy. He invited everyone from the class, even ugly Selma, but there is a limit to ugliness I can take. I draw the line on you. I don't want to see you at my boyfriend's party." Hatice, exception for the burning mark, was a pretty girl, but whatever the reason was, other girls picked on her.
Mehmet told Kamil, "Girls are meaner than boys, but because they are pretty, they get away with it." Kamil said, "I understand you, you want to beat the crap out of these bitches, but you can't do anything about it." Mehmet said, "Yea."
They went to the classroom. In the classroom teacher said, "Students, first time in Earth's history, a meteor cluster from deep space came to our planet. None of the meteors is too big to cause real damage, but from this night forward, we will going to watch a few days of meteor showers." One of the students asked, "Teacher, is there anything negative that is expected?" The teacher said, "No, just for a few nights. We will watch a beautiful meteor shower."

Right at the school exit, Yaşar gathered up his crew. He was going to gang up on Mehmet. Mehmet humiliated him yesterday. Right at the school exit, he saw Mehmet. Mehmet got out of school with the vice principal. Yaşar grated his teeth. He wasn't crazy enough to attack Mehmet right before the vice principal. He told his crew, "Today, we can't do anything to this bastard. Tomorrow, we will kick his ass."
When Yaşar angrily jumped at his bike, he pedaled like a madman. When Kamil came near Mehmet, they moved away from the vice principal, and Kamil asked, "That was your plan. How many days can you hang around the vice principal? He will eventually get you." Mehmet smiled with an evil grin and said, "Just watch the show." he pointed to Yaşar. Yaşar, with great speed, jumped at the road, but suddenly he screamed. His breaks were sabotaged by Mehmet.
He could not control his bike, and he fell off his bike at great speed. Kamil said, "He could have died." Mehmet said, "Yea so what?" Kamil said with worry, "They could arrest you for it." Mehmet smiled. "Today, security cameras looking at the bicycle park are not working. I didn't leave any evidence."
That night Mehmet watched the meteor shower with his family. All family went out to the balcony and watched the sky.
When Hatice went home, her family said, "Come watch the meteor shower with us." But Hatice was upset. She said, "I think I am sick. I will go to bed early." Hatice was sweet on Engin; he was handsome and also a nice guy. He was one of the few people who treated Hatice with the kindness he showed to the other girls. He didn't see the ugly burn mark on her face or acted like he didn't see it. When Merve picked on her Today, she truly hurt Hatice. She wanted to go to that party. Nobody invited her to parties. This was important for her. But while the meteor shower is happening, Hatice feels something. She felt something different. On her hand, a small flame appeared. She felt the heat around her like she had some sort of new sense. She felt powerful. She senses heat and can control it.
She exited her bed in the middle of the night, put her clothes on, and started walking. Merve's home wasn't close to Hatices, but she wanted to use her new power. She felt her strength. Through the road, she constantly created fireballs at her hand nobody was around. An hour later, she was in front of the Merve's villa. She said to herself, "Merve, you had everything. I had nothing, yet you chose to bully me. Why? Why? That is not important now. I will have my revenge. I will do something much worse than killing you. I will take away your family's riches and your beauty. With my power, eventually, I am going to have Engin too.
She just trowed a fireball to Merve's room window. Then started to control the flames. Then Merve woke up in fear, she tried to escape from her room, but wherever she went, fires appeared in front of her, not letting her run. Merve sensed heat, including the people's body heat, so she prevented Merve's escape. She was about to burn her bad, but a sound in her mind stopped her. She was about to do something she couldn't take back. She was about to do what school shooters do. The moment they had the means, they chose to kill their bullies. But Hatice asked herself, was this what she wanted to become a pyromaniac who ruthlessly maimed and killed her bullies. So she decided she was gone too far. She pushed fires from the doorway and let Merve run away without injury.
Although Hatice backed down from hurting anyone, she was already burned the house. When firefighters come, they put down the fire. Nobody got harmed in the fire because the flames were controlled by Hatice.
Tomorrow was Saturday. Mehmet, after a good night's sleep, looked at his phone. In TikTok, a guy was showing something weird. He cut himself, and his wounds got healed very fast. He said, "I got these new powers after the meteor shower." Mehmet smiled and said, "This is just an editing trick.
But later in the day, many other superpower shows appeared on social media, and governments started to collect people with powers.
Mehmet was called by Engin. Engin said, "Today's party is canceled. My girlfriend's house got burned." Mehmet tried to fake some sincerity and said, "Oh, too bad." He liked Engin. The guy was rich, handsome, and after all of these things, he was nice. He was genuinely a good person. But his girlfriend was a total bitch, and Mehmet didn't like the gall. He thought, "She got what she deserved."
What Mehmet cared for was the new superpowers. Stupid people showed their superpowers. Like a guy using electrical powers who tried to rob a bank, another guy with freezing powers wanted to stop him. Both of them end up in government research facilities. Mehmet wanted his own superpowers, but he wasn't the lucky kind.
