"I choose to control fear.  I won't let my father get away easily and I will make him suffer as much as possible, this power is the most suitable to pay him back for what he did" I answered honestly and I felt my entire body shouting at me to run away but before I could move it was to late. the demon had impaled a huge dark spike through my heart. it gave off a thick mist that devoured all light near by and as well as my hope. I fell limp onto the ground clutching my chest in agony.

"I warn you this power requires a word of power to go along with it. I will give you your first word for free to get you started. Arachnophobia, the fear of spiders." the demon said with a lecturing voice at the same time vicious like it would kill me just to hear it. but then his mood changes and his aura explodes around us, "I do hope you make it interesting" the Demon said before vanishing and leaving me in the park where he found me. I passed out on the dirt path beneath me. without that Demon's presence it feels like I am resting on a cloud and I loose consciousness without a chance to fight back against the pull of the ever consuming void of sleep...

I awake from my slumber in the morning just as the sun breaks away from the horizon leaving the sky an early morning mix of orange and blue. the trees around me are a vibrant green with withering branches from years of torment of the younger children in the area playing around. wait... words of power... I will have to test this then.

I kept thinking to myself while I walked out of the park and wouldn't you know someone came at me and pointed a gun to my face, he had a balaclava and some cheep clothes. looking at his bloodshot twitchy eyes I assume he takes drugs and is robbing me for the money to get more.

"keep still and give me all your money!!!" the man said still waving his gun at my face. I sigh and look at him with bland empty eyes.

"If I can't move how can I give you the imaginary money I have yet to get" I said making him look at me angry. but before he could do anything I would not live to regret. "Arachnophobia" I said simply and as soon as I did nothing happened... so much for a power. I sighed but his hand was shaking and he threw his gun onto the ground.

"WAAAHH!!! WHAT IS THAT THING????" he asked looking over to the gun and I looked carefully, I could see the outline of a HUGE spider that had teeth as thick as my arm. I was shocked but not scared at all. I then noticed hundreds upon thousands of spiders came out from nowhere and started to climb all over him biting and even so far as to crawl down his mouth to bite his insides to pieces... this continued for a while... what happened next I do not know as the image vanished and he fell to the ground shaking. maybe that was overkill? I should work on my control and OH MY WHAT THE HELL? I am not even caring that I may have traumatised him for life? even thinking about it I feel nothing for the guy.

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

I continue walking thinking of all the other types of Phobias I know of. Arachnophobia, the fear of spiders. Acrophobia, the fear of heights. Achluophobia, the fear of the dark. Egrophobia, the fear of work and the workplace environment. Finally Anatidaephobia, the fear of a duck somehow somewhere watching you... I really abused google search when I got bored to find that one and I assume I will need to arm myself with more to get back at my father but first I know one that I need to get my hands on a VR-Headgear and a copy of Incursion Online. I am going to bring that game to the ground from the inside out while also keeping an offensive outside the game on my father's company. I will make him suffer slowly and cruelly and tare down his castle he made brick by brick.

I walk through the town and arrive at the only game's store that I can rob. the only security it has is a single guard overlooking 1 employee. it is almost to easy. I walk into the shop and smile while grabbing a VR-Headgear box and a copy of Incursion Online. looking at the guard I mumble to myself. "Egrophobia" and sure enough the guard from sleeping woke up and looked around alert, then he walked out of the store with a cold sweat showing plain as day. the person at the till looked worried for the security guard but I was there before he could check up on his runaway comrade.

"I would like just this please" I said while putting the boxes in front of the man. he wore a false smile while he scanned them "Egrophobia" I mumbled to myself again and he to just waked out of the building without even finishing. and with it being that simple I had the game scanned and didn't have to pay meaning it is MINE!!! and nobody can catch me since to them it has been scanned and thus has been bought and paid for.

I walk out of the building exited to check on the game and make sure my ability works in there and without further ado I went back to my home and plugged everything in. before heading off to work for the day. what did you think I had all the time in the world? no I don't have that luxury so I have to work hard to keep the electricity and the internet on. this would not be easy but I will see it through to the end. I will remember all the pain you caused me father. I will avenge my mother for her treatment during life and even death, I will make you pay for it all...

I hope you enjoyed the chapter and make sure to comment on what sort of Phobias you would like to see exploited to the maximum. I am even going to use a duck watching someone from somewhere somehow to its maximum so it does not matter how small it may be. if you wish to see it I shall show you the true effects of Fear. also not the chapters will get a lot longer from here on out as we explore Oliver on all 3 battle fields of VR, work and his father so there will be so much more juicy content to read.
