17 The Begining of a Storm (1/2)

After a long fight, Paul screamed in victory. His powers have finally surfaced and now he can carry on with his revenge.

As Paul let out the last of his energy, he fell to the ground. Using all that power for the first time outside his mind left quite an impact on his body. He couldn't move nor speak.

Above behind the glass screen, a delightful smile appeared on the Boss' face.

”That was brilliant. The effectiveness of those enhancers and to see it in action, it's marvelous.” The Boss said, impressed by the whole ordeal.

”Of course. These were the prototypes that had the lowest percentage of error,” Dr. Morel said with delight. ,” And those hu- ahem, I mean ANDROIDS, were created to push subjects like Paul to the limit so they can open therselves to the powers.”

Then he turned to this subordinates.

”Alright. Go on down and carry our subject to the Data Analysis Room. We got a lot of data to collect from all that.”

”Yes, Sir!” the men said. They all went to go grab some equipment to get Paul to the Data Analysis Room safely. After a few minutes, they arrived in the resting area through another part, which had a ramp, as they had brought a bed with wheels with them.

They worked swiftly to get the job done. The enhancers were put to great use and the data would only be traceable for a few more hours.

”A man that could wield four of them, you have found a great one, haven't you,” Dr. Morel said to the Boss.

”It was a just a choice made at a specific time and place,” the Boss replied.

”Well, it was a choice well made, ” Dr. Morel said, as he followed his subordinates to the study room. Paul was laid on top of the examination table.

A scanner like machine lowered and a red light turned on. It was a light and warm light that made Paul fall asleep. The surbordinates worked quickly and efficiently to gather the data in the current status of Paul. His mental and physical attributes were carefully scoped to the last detail.

”This is truly a wonder!” Dr. Morel said with excitement. ”With him, I can achieve my long time dream!”

The current condition of Paul's body showed quite a lot of interesting factors. Although he was incapacitated, Paul's body worked 10 times above what an average human can achieve in a lifetime. It was as if he transcended humanity and it's limits.

After a few more hours of analyzing, Paul was carried to the resting room for recovery.

”How long will it be until he regains consciousness?” the Boss asked, after everything was done.

”Should take about 1-2 days, depending on his mental strength,” Dr. Morel replied. ” By the way, what happened in that task that was assigned to Paul? I heard he got sent to prison?”

”He appearently lost in a fight against his target, who was a high school student. He had a reason though, which further convinced me to test out your creations,” the Boss replied. He went on and told Dr. Morel about Karma, how a sudden change in personality affected his ability to fight. Dr. Morel listened with curiousity. He had never heard of a personality disorder that causes one's combat capabilities to increase.

”That is quite interesting...” Dr. Morel said, scratching his chin. ”Are you sure it isn't just because Paul isn't as strong as he seems?”

”From what I have heard from the manager of of my company in Downtown Tren, Paul is the best one there is. He still can't match my number one assassin, but he's got skill.”

”I should look into this, ” Dr. Morel said. ” Yes...I should.”

And with that he walked away, lost in his thoughts. This happens whenever he doesn't quite understand something, but is determined to find out by any means.

The next morning...

”Yawn...”

Paul had woken up from his deep slumber. He felt quite alive after being able to rest for a day. He felt his body bustling with power. His thoughts were a humble of calculations and strategies that he thought of while he was asleep.

He got up from the bed and looked around. It was pretty dark aside from a small light glimmering from the corner that seemed to be coming from a machine.

He searched the wall from a light and found one by the door. He opened the light and saw that he was in some sort of resting area, as there were a couple of beds there. He opened the door and saw the scientists he met working on something. He approached one that was by a large machine with tubes.

”Excuse me, but where is the Boss?” Paul asked.

The scientist turned to Paul.
