During my break i was thinking. That can't be real. Powers and super natural abilities are for imagination and children not for the real world. But If that was real what am i to do? it just can't be real but what about the 5 figures they looked like the figures from before.
wait why was i so calm inside there? did they do something to my mind? Well i'm not the strongest, i'm not the smartest and I'm bad at planning so what am i to do? All i know for sure is that things are going to change. After 20 minutes i decided to go back to work and finish up for the day. Nothing exciting happened at work, just analysing a game of AFL (Collingwood and Richmond game).
The only thing of note is that my work colleagues couldn't focus on the work at hand. It wasn't like how they normally talked to each other or played games on the computers. It was more like they were concentrating on something that was more important then work. At times i could swear that i saw fire on their fingers or objects floating just millimetres from the surface.
Thinking back on my choice of power i made a big mistake. Reaction really Michael, all the powers of the world and you choose reaction. Feeling a little depressed i go back to work so i could go home. opening the door to my apartment i am surprised to see Artemis sitting in the kitchen with his laptop on the table. Thinking that this must be important i sit opposite him.
"Hey Artemis what wrong?"
"Hey Michael your home so did you meet the gods?"
"What gods"
"Did't you fall asleep at some time and speak to 5 gods?"
A sense of doubt come across me. How could they be gods? but then how else can i explain what was happening. Unsure i ask Artemis
"How do you know they are gods?"
"Many people asked them what they were and they told them they are gods. There are many rumours and discussion online to see if they are speaking the truth. But many people just call them that because it is easier."
"I see then i did meet them."
"So go on tell me what you got. Did you get flight, or maybe the power to teleport?"
Feeling regret of my choice i answer Artemis with a sorrow voice.
"umm i got super human reaction"
"...."
"..."
"Truly?"
"Truly!"

"Thats just like you always believing in your eyes"
"Well that is how it is so what about you?"
"Haha i am now an earth bender!"
"like from avatar?"
"yep"
"Thats pretty cool. can you show me anything?"
"Unfortunately like everyone else i can only move a pebble a little bit. From all the stories online it seems our powers are a weaker version of the ones we think of."
"So not only is an increase in reaction a bad ability it will be weak?"
"Yes but you can train it. Didn't the gods tell you?"
"i only remember having 2 weeks and thats it."
"Yeah we only get 2 weeks to train and in the dream state we can make a training ground and train there."
"How did you know?"
"You have to ask the right questions"
After that Artemis and i continued to talk about others stories and what others powers are it was really enjoyable.Some thing else thats important is that all the missions will be in the dream state which is like the real world just in your dreams. Like when i met the gods. As the evening went on, night was upon us and we went to sleep.
"Welcome Michael to your training area. Just imagine what you want and it will be created but you can only do this once so be warned. Also you get one trainer to train you and this is from any and all games, books or T.V shows you can imagine. Want to be taught by batman here you can."
I "wake up" to a voice and an area of white. like the voice said i imagine a forest and it appeared. Then i wished for it to disappear and it did. An eternity later i made a good training area. During the process i made stuff then dis-made stuff over and over again.
But now my master piece is finished. So in my training area i have a pool that can increase and decrease in density, (the higher the density the harder it is to swim. imagine wearing weights as you swim.) a gym with the state of the art gym equipment, a mountain behind the gym with an area onto Altitude training, (google it if you don't know) a forest and an athletics track used for training myself with the trainer.
Now the only problem who is going to be my trainer? I need some one that can understand Ki because i have no idea and someone to tech me how to fight. I have the perfect person.
