Chapter 4: The Spy

Many people will say that most runners get whats known as a runner's high, at the moment Oliver is currently spewing more provanaties than the whole of Samuel L Jackson's career, his lungs burned and his mouth was drier than any desert while his legs felt like he was dragging the rest of the recruits with him on his run, he stupidly overestimated himself and went to fast which had cause him to end up in the pitiful state he was in currently, he had extremem tunnel vision and was now following the course by pure muscle memory "Why did I think I could suddenly do 10km, i'm so fucking stupid, well done Oliver of course you can do anything but this is hell" Oliver wretched out a dry heive but nothing came out, all of his fluids had been used to cover himself in a viscous layer of sweat which actually helped him carry on as one of the recruits tried to stop him from carrying on when they saw the state of him but he lost grip and was repulsed by his sweat and decided to relegate himself to the side lines along with the other bystanders who had slowly begun to congregate to watch Oliver to the point cheers slowly began to eminate from the crowd cheering Oliver on.

Only 2 more laps to go Oliver thought and this torture would soon be over, every moment he could fell his heart pulsating in his ears his legs crumbling to pieces only to be forced back together by his regeneration, but the pain, the pain never left him, it coursed through every cell of his body reminding him of the price he must pay to improve himself, Oliver cursed once more put pushed through the ever unsurmountable odds as he knew he was close to finishing the run, but his mind slowly began to convinve him that he had finished and that he deserved a break and the grass beside the track looked heavenly to lay down in and rest his eyes for a few minutes, but he knew that if he stopped now he'd always find a challenge that would ultimately block him and he would remember his failure, of him being too weak willed and giving up, his mind then envisioned Steve, not that was a man with undying will, even with his measley physique Oliver had already seen the man training and if he can do it then he sure as hell can. A fire in Oliver's core suddendly ignited and with it energy began to reinvigorate his body and he began to push even harder with more power and speed and before he realised it the finish line was mere metres away and he began to slow, his last spike of energy diminished as he crossed the line and with it he collapsed on the floor. A cloaked figure observing behind a barracks had seen this poor excuse for a recruit and thought he'd found abit of entertainment until the man had kept going, far beyond what his physique should of allowed him to and muttered to himself "very interesting".

The rest of the recruits who had been cheering saw Oliver collapse on the ground and quickly made their way over to him and raised him up to carry him to the medical centre, though non of them said anything, the pure focus and will of this man had ignited their own spirits and they all had a new found respect for who they had already called the lesser mistake of the recruits. Oliver's drained body was gently placed on a hospital bed and after a while the medical staff decided all he need was a good rest as he miraculously had no discernable injuries. Time flew by until Oliver reach consciousness again and whas greeted by the most notifications he'd ever come across to date, he slowly raised his back up to a sitting position and began to navigate his way through all his messages he had recieved.

Oliver was overwhelmed by the amount of power once again flooding through his system, every fibre of his being pulsated with new found energy, flexibility and power. He had truly pushed himself and reaped amazing awards from his overall increase in stats to his new S rank ability and even the additional AP with a random ability, he had hit the jackpot and all this from a mere training session, what could he become he wondered, because at his rate of progress there would be no obstacle in his way to easily complete every objective, he quickly calmed himself down and regulated his breathing so he could get on to the next thing he was already itching to do, get his random ability, as he thought this a menu once again appeared asking him if he wanted to recieve his ability which he quickly clicked yes to, what greeted him was a spinning wheel that automatically began and continued for what seemed like forever to Oliver as he was beginning to lose his patience until it finally stopped with an answer to a question he hadn't even thought of yet, high to fight at a range.

"My luck is getting better and better" Oliver murmured to himself and with even more determination he quickly rose from his bed and began to leave when a man obstructed him, Oliver looked into the man's eyes and began to feel a very intimidating aura and slowly took a back step, suddenly Franklin's voice entered into his mind "Be very careful Oliver this man is way above your ability both now and even in the near future, do not aggravate him" Oliver was shocked and try to analyse the man infront of him but he was thrown out of concentration when the man's voice slowly coiled around the room as his presence demanded attention "I saw you" Oliver's heart began to shake, "what did this man see!". The mysterious man continued "You are clearly a very special and driven individual and it would be a mighty shame if your talents were to be wasted by this sub par establishment, I will see you again in the future if you prove yourself and will give you a propositiion, until then work hard Oliver" as the man was just finishing talking he began to fade into darkness while Oliver's name lingered in the now frozen room. "Holy shit if that guy wanted to kill me he could of so easily, I need to get stronger and it has to be sooner rather than later" Oliver thought to himself and quickly marched his way to the training field once again, it didn't go well as the previous bystanders of his run saw him and dragged him back to his bed were he was forcibly tied down so he'd take the day off and continue to rest, one by one they repeated the same thing to him "We're only trying to help you".
