Ive worked in multiple places, im careful with eveything i do, i always put 100% effort in anything i do, my responsiblities as a man is to work hard and make sure i help as many people as possible, i was born without a talent since birth, ive worked hard for years hoping to get one, but it never happened, why would that stop me though, even if people around me were lifting metal beams 5x my size ill just work extra hard for everyone
Grunting
John can you bring the beam over here so i bolt it in place
(John) yeah, let me just finish this
As i looked around the job site, i could see other people using their talents, jerome was a lizard man with double the strength of a civilian, john was born with super strength, his variant is one of the more stronger variants, there are all types of talents ranging from increase movement speed to teleportation, somepeople can teleport across a whole continent and some could only teleport a few feet infront of them, you can only gain talents from when your born to 30
im very contempt with how my life went, even without a talent i was able to make enough money to life normally and i saved up emough to go on a cruze, i hope i get a raise, then i wouldnt need to work so much, but even if i was working id still do yard work or clean every inch of my house, i dont have a girlfriend or wife, i just rather take care of everything before something happens
(John) watch out Ren!
I moved to the side while john slammed the giant metal beam in place, i took out my power tool and secured the beam to the platform, i pushed in it a bit and it was perfect
(John) greta job! Here *handing a soda*
Dang man did you keep this in your fat rolls or something its super hot
(John) i left them in the sun on accident
Is Jin here today?
(John) yeah he should be here *grabbing his walkie talkie off his belt* Jin come up to the 3 story of the building
You didnt need to do that, i hope hes close so he doesnt have to climb all those stairs
(Jin) panting Whats wrong?
(John) our drinks are really hot newbie can you help us out?
Jin looked a bit disappointed, then walked up, looked at his hand for a bit, i sae his skin on his palm turn a bit blue then smoke started forming off his hand, he held grabbed hour sodas for a few seconds then gave them back
(Jin) is that all?
(John) yeah
Wait, give him a soda john i want to talj a bit with him
(John) only this once since youve worked here longer than me
He handed Jin one, he sat down on a bucket
So Jin are you planning to try out in the tournment this year?
(John) i know i am!
(Jin) i want to but my powers arent as good as other variants
(John) you mean talents right?
i cringed a bit, talents were called many different names, superpowers by most americans, talents by japanese people, skills by koreans, abilities by the chinese, it can be almost anything, i know in africa they call is magic, but thats all ive heard
Let him call it whatever he wants, you know they combined every continent into one big orginization
The tournament is a newer thing because of the "villains" that have been appearing lately, using their talents for bad use like robbing and killing people, but the tournaments are a way to pick the top 30 people and put them in classroom to make them into crime fighting people, i knew if i ever got a talent i eould try out every year
(Jin) i can freeze people but only if in contact with them, some people can literally turn the air around them into a frozen wasteland
(John) hehe like the ice queen
I looked at john sturnly
We had a tier system to show where you were on the list from weakest to most powerful, its a simple 10 to 1 tier system, Jin's talent is a tier 3 on the system because of his talent not effecting him physically but he needs to touch people
The ice queen is tier 8, she can freeze water in the air from just thought, she can form her ice into weapons and contol ice into walls, she can control ice so well that she can fly by making ice under her feet and controlling it and to top it all off she doesnt feel the cold whatsoever, she can also make the area around her very cold
I beileve you could do it Jin! Maybe Jobn would help you if its a team trial this year
Jin looked at John, John shrugged
(John) I just want the license to stop bad people. Pays really well and honestly? I've always wanted to know what it feels like to crush someone's head with my bare hands You know?
He said it like he was talking about trying a new food
Yeah i get that, having a talent thats super strong makes your want more probably
(Jin) tenses up What about you Ren? Whats your talent?
John spit his drink out and started laughing
I dont have a talent Jin, unless you think the skill of Diligence something flexing
(John) wiping a tear away from what i hear you talk about you have a the talent of soemthing like diligence, but just dont have a god's message
God's message is what happens when someone instinctevly knows what their talent is
(Jin) Im sorry Ren, i didnt know
Its alright looking at the clock oh look at the time, time to go home
I clocked out and started walking through the job site to get to my truck in the parking lot, then i saw a shadow on the ground of a long plank looking thing, i looked up to see a beam with ice on the tip of where the bolts are usually put then i saw a hole like someone punched though the beam, i saw passed it John holding Jin by the neck, maybe tomorrow will be better, then everything went black
I didnt get to finish everything i needed to do, but i feel really sleepy
