Lucas was a dreamer who had a passion for supernatural powers. Everyone at school thought Lucas was stupid when he said that he will become a superhero. Ha, so you really think you’re superman Lucas, said his teacher impolitely, you will never do anything remarkable in this world, you’re only a petite boy. Mrs Zelda laughed loud and all the kids joined in on the fun. Lucas felt discouraged and left the school two hours before it had finish. He run and run with tears in his eyes.
As he was running, he heard an echo. Someone was calling his name. Lucas could hear the sound coming from the sewerage, and was curious as to what this stranger was talking about. He went down into the sewerage and started calling out to the mysteries voice in the dark. As he turned around the corner, an old man popped out. I’ve been watching you, the old man grumbled with an angry tone to his voice. I know what you want and you going to take it from me, said the old man. Lucas was shocked and confused and didn’t understand what this man was talking about. Please leave me alone, I don’t want any trouble. Don’t you understand what I’m saying, the old man shouted! All that anger coming from the old man scared off Lucas, so he ran away. Haha, the old man laughed with that same angry tone, I know where to find you, I know where you live! Lucas run and run. Day turned into night within 10 minutes but the boy was to frighten to think about it. That same night, Lucas went to bed even though he wasn’t really tired. He couldn’t really sleep because every time he closed he eyes, the fear and anger in that old man’s face showed up. He eventually fell asleep and had nightmares, he was so frightened by that man. This old man wasn’t an ordinary human, he had the power to do anything he wanted. He had supernatural powers.
Lucas woke up early the next morning with the weirdest feel. He felt slower, weaker and much older than his age. All of a sudden he had back pains and problems with his legs and arms. In fact, his whole body felt sore. So he run up to his mother just like he always use to do when he felt sick. Ah, who are you and what you doing in my house!? Lucas’s mother screamed out of fear, get out, and get out now! Lucas couldn’t understand what his mother was talking about. Mom, it’s me Lucas, Lucas said. Get out my house, I’m calling the cops! Lucas’s mother screamed again but with a bit of anger in her voice. Listen to me, it’s me Lucas, how do you not know me, Lucas said once again with a bit of frustration and confusion.
The cops soon arrived and Lucas was arrested. Lucas was scared and all alone behind bars. It took him a while but he soon realised that he was the old man. After seeing himself in the mirror, he got the shock of his life. After a day in jail he found out just how powerful he really was. He could do anything. The first thing he did was brake out of jail, then he went back home where he thought the old man would be with his body. Yes he was right, the old man had stolen his body. He went up to the old man and confronted him when he was all alone in the streets.
What you doing in my body, Lucas asked surprisingly? Give it back now! Ah, the old man shout! What you doing here, I thought you were in jail? I’m assuming you know of the power, you like it, don’t you? The old man laughed and laughed for no apparent reason. Just give me my body, Lucas command with anger and fear in his voice.
Let me make a deal with you, the old said with an evil smile on his face. If you keep that body, you get all the powers that come with it. Huh, powers, what type of powers, Lucas questioned, forgetting that he actually had powers.
Don’t be stupid, the old man said in a grumpy voice, how do you think you got out of jail? You have the power to do anything in the world, the old man said inspiring. Anything, the boy said as he started to imagine. He thought of all the dreams he had and how they were all possible now.
If you keep the body, all the powers are yours. The old man give Lucas one day to decide whether he wanted the powers or not. Lucas actually considered testing the powers not realizing it came with the old man’s body. So he spent the rest of his day testing this power out, and by the end of the day he had made up his mind. He had traveled the world, traveled through time and did just everything he dreamt of doing.
Will Lucas choose his new power, or his own body? To be continued…
