Ethan was your average introverted gamer teen, he goes to an online school; because he is in a foreign country. even though he was introverted it didn't stop him from going on walks, but one rainy day, he smelled a strange smell that smelled like dust, earth and metal.
ethan-"whats that smell?….. must be the sewers"
he then shrugged it off and continued walking, but then he suddenly got struck by lightning, and that made ethan collapse and get paralyzed on the ground, he was then able to barely get up but at that moment he tasted metal, he knew he was about to get struck again but when he realized it, it was too late, he was struck again and became unconscious, and when he woke up, he found people surrounding him and taking pictures, he got up but some paramedic tried to get him to the hospital but he refused, and so he went home and took a nap, and when he woke up, he went to drink water but the tap won't work no matter how much he turned it on, he turned on the cold water, then the hot water and still nothing, so he just gave up and grabbed some ice from the fridge and put them in a cup and waited for them to melt, but they never did, they just stayed in the cup, and he shook the cup gently but he noticed that they stay in place whenever he shook the cup and that they dont shake then slide around like normal.
ethan-"what the hell is going on, cant i just have a normal night and get some water?? sigh, what the hell is happening, somethings up, and its definitely not the roof"
he then put the glass of ice on the kitchen counter and went to his bed and tried to sleep again, but he felt too energized to sleep so he rolled in bed multiple times trying to find the perfect position to sleep, after some time he gave up and did some exercises to tire him out, he first tried running in place and no matter how much he ran, he never got tired so he tried getting faster and faster but to his surprise he found himself running so fast that his legs were blurry, he tried pushing himself forward with his foot while running in place but he got launched and crashed onto the wall instead of going a step forward.
ethan-"OW! good thing nothing broke especially the wall or my parents'll kill me"
he then looked at his hands which were now on his head, and surprisingly there was no blood on his hand, just electricity sparkling and illuminating the place
ethan-"whoa.... this is so cool.... wait….. electricity on my hand.... everything frozen in place...… legs being so fast that its blurry...…. HOLY-"
ethan covered his mouth to not awake anyone
ethan-"wow, i have powers...heh...haha.....nice!…. but wait…. how do i have them anyway... it shouldn't be physically or biologically possible in every way, ill look into my powers tomorrow, maybe there are people like me other than those who have an ability or two and call it powers, i mean you expect me to believe that someone is magnetic that means he has powers? as if"
