Lee Seng jangled the keys in his pocket as he tapped away on his phone. He reached the front entrance and looked up to see the Creator stepping out as well.
'Well, just my luck.' Lee Seng thought. He slowed his pace and watched as the Creator chatted away with his colleagues.
"Creator, isn't your son taking the Academy transfer exam today? Do you think he'll make it in with his new profound powers?" A doctor asked.
"I have faith my son will get in with his abilities. He may be a troublemaker, but he has always put up a fight." The Creator answered. The doctors all agreed with Lee Seng's dad and Lee Seng couldn't help but roll his eyes.
'These doctors must be new. All of these doctors should know our relationship by now.' Lee Seng thought. The Creator and the small group of doctors slowly shuffled out of the doors. Lee Seng sighed, leaning against the corner section of a wall, pulling his attention to his phone. Lee Seng watched as all of his social media apps downloaded and decided to sign into all of them.
He tapped into the first one and signed in and his phone immediately pinged. He had a message from someone. Lee Seng clicked the messages.
'April messaged me?' Lee Seng tilted his head. 'She usually doesn't contact me when I'm not working. Plus, she should know I'm on a break due to what happened at the school and the transfer exam.' Lee Seng clicked her picture and watched a chat pop-up.
April: Hey, Lee Seng, I couldn't get through to your number, so I'm messaging you here.
April: A family situation popped up unexpectedly and I have work today from 3 pm - closing. Could you take my shift?
Lee Seng: Sure, I ended my transfer exam early today.
Lee Seng: Could you let Boss know I'm coming in for you?
April: Thanks, I'll let Boss know! I owe you one. :)
Lee Seng: *thumbs up*
Lee Seng slipped his phone back into his pocket and looked up. The Creator and all of the doctors left and Lee Seng jangled his keys as he started outside.
"How'd you get in here without me knowing?" The security asked.
"However Akio gets in here." Lee Seng smiled. The security guy chuckled and waved.
"You better not be taking after that man too much, kid." The security guy shook his finger at him. Lee Seng nodded. He waved at the security guy who waved at him and took off.
----
Lee Seng pulled off the highway and into the outskirts of Capitol City. He flicked his signal right and curved to a stop, checking for cars before going. Lee Seng merged over and went straight for a couple of stoplights before getting over to the left-most lane. On the next left, Lee Seng took a left and passed by a group of buildings that had apartments on top of businesses.
Lee Seng turned right into a small driveway. Lee Seng's car beeped and he quickly tapped it. The garage door opened and he slowly descended underneath the buildings. He pulled into a parking lot and made his way around the lot, turning around and going towards the left side. He parked, shut off his car, and followed the imaginary path he had drawn out in his head, towards an elevator.
He hit the button and lifted his watch for the time.
2:45 pm
"The drive from the lab always feels too short." Lee Seng muttered. The elevator door dinged and opened. A small group of people looked up and noticed Lee Seng's huge white tail slowly moving around behind him. Lee Seng stepped off to the side, not even looking up, and allowed the group to pass.
"Who's that?" A girl asked her friend as they passed. "Is he new around here? He's pretty hot."
"Is that a tail?" The girl's friend pointed out. "Wait, I thought I saw something about this online."
"Isn't that the Creator's son?" A guy asked.
"Oh, yeah, I think he works at that boba place we were at." The guy's friend answered.
"Oh, it is him!" The girl hissed quietly. "Hurry up!" She waved at her friends as they quickly zoomed past Lee Seng. Lee Seng looked up and saw the elevator had one person in it still. He stepped into the elevator and hit the fourth-floor button. The door closed and Lee Seng turned to see his co-worker, John.
John had his arms folded together, leaning against the back railing. The elevator moved up and Lee Seng turned to watch the elevator number slowly climb up. Lee Seng kept his mouth shut and didn't want to start anything with John. John had always been a part of the group that didn't like Lee Seng. He had always picked on Lee Seng and when he recognized Lee Seng, he probably wanted to be nosy.
"So the articles were true. You have a tail and your ears are there now." John pointed. Lee Seng didn't look at John and nodded. John shifted and turned his whole body to look at Lee Seng. "You got powers and you think you're any different now?" The elevator dinged onto the third floor and a small group of people looked in.
"The articles are true and no. Just cause I got powers doesn't mean anything has changed. You're still nosy." Lee Seng answered. Lee Seng turned and saw John's face frown with disappointment and anger. He lunged forward and grabbed Lee Seng. The on-lookers awkwardly stepped out of the elevator and decided to wait. John held Lee Seng in the corner and Lee Seng sighed. His ruby and sapphire eyes stared straight into John's emerald eyes.
"You're always gonna be trash! I don't give a damn if you're the Creator's son nor if you're thinking things are gonna be different! You don't belong anywhere!" John pushed Lee Seng against the metallic box wall again. The elevator dinged and the door opened. Lee Seng sighed and grabbed John's wrist and tightened his grasp.
In one fluid motion, he tightened his grasp and pushed John away, slamming him into the opposite elevator wall. Lee Seng shook his head and started to step out of the elevator. John cursed and tackled Lee Seng. The two flew into the wall, knocking off a vase and drawer. The two grunted as John pushed Lee Seng across the wall. Lee Seng flicked his tail and slammed it against John's stomach.
John stumbled backward and Lee Seng turned himself around and shook his head in disappointment. He brushed himself off and watched as John's eyes turned golden.
'Fuck.' Lee Seng jumped to the side as lasers flew out of John's eyes and followed Lee Seng. Lee Seng scrambled to make distance. The golden lasers sliced and burnt through the walls, doors, and floors. Lee Seng jumped as the laser met at his feet and quickly turned and lifted his hand. Gravity erupted out Lee Seng's hands and pushed against the lasers.
'His limit should be coming up soon.' Lee Seng reminded himself. 'He can only hold it for fifteen seconds before his eyes really start to heat up and cause damage.' Lee Seng felt the condensed energy slowly pushing against his gravity. He held the force of gravity in place. He knew he couldn't use it however he wanted. He would blow the hallway to bits.
The laser slowly moved closer towards Lee Seng's hand and Lee Seng grunted with fear. The laser stopped and Lee Seng quickly dashed forwards towards John. He cleared the huge distance in a couple of seconds and grabbed John and slammed him into the ground with a loud thud. The air in John escaped him and Lee Seng moved on top of John and held his neck with his left hand.
"Damage to the property. Reckless behavior. Attacking a civilian. Unfair treatment to a minority." Lee Seng spat out. "You could go to jail for this, John." John swung at Lee Seng and Lee Seng moved away, shifting his weight onto John's legs and back to his pelvis area. Lee Seng covered John's entire body with his Dark Matter and watched as gravity pressed him down.
"Stay there while I file a complaint, Greeves." Lee Seng stood up and moved away from John. Lee Seng called the authorities and explained the situation to the dispatcher. When he finished giving out his information and where he was, he slipped his phone back into his pocket and watched as John tried to get out of the gravity hold. Lee Seng smiled and turned right towards his room.
"I'll be back for you after the police get here." Lee Seng waved as John screamed.
Lee Seng made his way towards the end of the hall. He stood in front of Room 416 and punched in his room number. The door lock beeped and unlocked and he stepped into the sunny room. He took off his shoes and wandered out of the hallway and into the sunny living room attached to the small kitchen.
Lee Seng glanced at his watch for the time.
2:50 pm
Lee Seng quickly walked towards the kitchen and turned right when a hallway appeared. He wandered down the hallway towards a cracked open door. He pushed it open and stepped into his large room. He made his way to the desk with a laptop on it and pulled a sticky note off and saw Alice's Boba Shop scribbled onto it with a phone number.
He punched the phone number in and sighed.
'She's gonna kill me.'
