Jake shows his powers to Sam.

    by: scriptboy Author IconMail Icon
Jake loved ham-and-cheese pizza, and he had gobbled up the slice in no time. In fact, he longed for another piece right there! He quickly got up, and walked back into the kitchen carrying the empty paper plate in his hand. Sam was sitting at the kitchen table, while looking over at the TV while eating at the same time.

"I didn't know you liked cold pizza..." Sam, his 17-year-old brother, remarked quietly.

"I don't..." Jake replied, as he opened the pizza box in the fridge and removed another slice from the box, which he neatly placed on the paper plate in his hand. "I hate cold pizza. It tastes afwul!"

"Well you ate the last slice cold! You never heated it up in the microwave, you dummy!" Sam giggled.

"Oh, but I heated it up with my---..." Jake replied, as he stopped in mid-sentence since he almost caught himself telling Sam that he had heat vision.

"With your... WHAT?" Sam inquired.

"Umm..." Jake sighed. He had fallen into a trap. He held a new slice of cold pizza in his hand, and his older brother was wondering how he heated his previous slice without using the microwave. Jake came to the realization that he was pushed into a corner. He had to show his brother his super powers. "I... Uhh... I just heated it..."

"With what? You don't have a microwave in your room!" Sam stated.

"Fine! You REALLY want to know?" Jake asked him.

"Yeah... I REALLY want to know, little bro!" the reply came.

Jake just looked down, staring at the slice of pizza, which lay on the paper plate in his hands. He took a deep breath, then he focused his eyes on the slice of pizza which was before him, and he imagined the pizza heating up.

Suddenly, red laser beams flashed from the pupils in Jake's eyes, coming down from his eyes and striking the surface of the pizza, instantly heating the crust and the small bits of ham, which had been cooked on the cheese-covered topping. The cheese even melted a bit more, almost dripping from the side of the plate, while the bits of ham began to change color as they became a little more crispy due to the intense heat rays emitted from Jake's eyes. After a few seconds, Jake shut off his built-in heat vision, leaving a delicious aroma emit from the formerly cold pizza pie and making it smell like it had just come from the hot oven.

Sam couldn't believe what he had just seen. Red, thick beams of heat just blasted from his little brother's eyeballs, and heated up the slice of pizza in his hand! That was completely amazing!

"Holy... CRAP!" Sam gasped as he slowly stood up and walked over to Jake, while holding a slice of pizza on a porcelin plate. "How... What... How the hell did you do THAT?"

"Well, uhmm... I just look at my plate... I think about fire... And... Uhmmm... I can shoot laser beams from my eyes!" Jake tried to explain. "I don't know why or how I do it... I just think of it and it happens!"

"Weird things have been going on with you, little bro! You carried a hundred pounds in the gym like it was nothing... You broke the treadmill in the gym because you ran too fast... Then you moved it out of place because you blew on it... Then you went jogging to some place far away..." Sam stated out loud.

"I ran to California! I went swimming in the ocean! That's all!" Jake insisted.

"Oh yeah? And I guess you just ran back to Miami afterwards?" Sam laughed.

"Uhh... No... I flew back..." Jake said quietly.

"WHAT?"

"I can fly..."

Sam's jaw dropped wide open as he stared at his little brother with a complete expression of disbelief at first.

Jake then put his pizza on the table before extending his arms sideways, allowing his body to rise about three feet above the floor. He remained stationary, floating three feet above the ground, in the middle of the living room, with Sam looking on!

"Ohmygosh!" This is... incredible!" Sam gasped, as he witnessed his little brother hovering in the center of his living room.

"I told you I could fly! I got super powers, bro!" Jake said, as he finally landed with his soccer shoes touching down on the floor. "Isn't that cool?"

"It's very cool... But what are you gonna do with these powers at school? Are you gonna tell everybody? Or are you gonna keep this a secret?" Sam asked him.

"Oh boy... That's a hard question, bro... I have no idea how I'm gonna handle this..."

"You better be very careful with this at school, Jake!" Sam warned his little super-powered brother. "What if the kids found out about this?"

You have the following choices:

*Pen*
1. Jake flies to school, and tries to hide his powers

*Pen*
2. Jake runs to school, and tries to hide his powers

*Pen* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
