1 Tom the young genius

Tom is a genius, but as if a higher being wanted equilibrium, he is also very ill. When he was 3 years old, he fainted and was brought to the hospital. There, a battery of different test were done and they discovered that all his brain was active, all the time.

What a lot of people considered a miracle was a disaster for others. The week after this discovery was made, the parents of the young Tom were killed in a explosion. The police said that it was an accident and that one of the gas pipe under their house had a leak and the gas was accumulated for multiple years before a spark of electricity exploded the whole house.

Nobody found strange that 3 days before 5 to 6 different gouvernemental agencies and different representative of a lot of labs came and ask about the whereabouts of the baby Tom. Neither when a unknown gas company checked this house gas installation one day prior to the explosion. NO everything is normal and it was JUST and ACCIDENT!!!!

So Tom was orphaned early and was brought up by his great uncle from his mom side, a well known and appreciate ex-general.

He retired after a long and very successful career because nobody else was brave enough to take care of the young Tom.

He was very strict but kind and the first years with Tom were quite normal. Tom was just very curious and intelligent, not very unexpected when you know about his brain. But after Tom fifth birthday, he became ill more frequently, his body became weaker day by day until he was seven and couldn't move out of his bed. Nobody really hnew why but after some time, it was theorized that because of his constant overactivation, his brain took all the energy and didn't leave any for Tom's body. And little by little, his body would become weaker till his death because of his brain development.

When this statement was made, Tom at first didn't believe it and began to study all the things that were medically oriented. From eastern to western medecine, nano medecine and a lot of others domain. He quickly realised that truly interesting discovery were hidden by big lab and different governments.

He was nine when he started to learn hacking and his learning ability grew as his brain developed and his body broke down. In one year he was well known as Omega, the best hacker of the world. He unknowingly became the doctor of the world. In theory of course because he never did anything so didn't have any practical experience. Practical experience is what really make a doctor so no even if he could suddenly jump off his bed and go in a operation room, he wouldn't even be able to make a staple suture. But with his new knowledge he was now sure that the doctor who made the statement that he was sure to die was right. His toes didn't even respond to him and 3 times a day he would need massage to keep a good blood circulation.

Knowing that he was a dead man, he wanted to improve the world and leave a permanent heritage to the Earth.

At eleven and with the help of his grand-uncle he opened a company. As he didn't want any benefice he could sell a lot of useful innovation at a very low price.

Soon enough all the countries of the world had enough drinkable water for their population. This invention was done with the combined effort of three labs and the genius brain of Tom. And this was also the last one that hit the market because approximately one year after the opening of the company, his situation deteriorated.

He went urgently to the hospital. There, the doctors told him that he only had one more year to live if he was lucky. Actually, he could die the next hour. His body was too weak and some of his muscles didn't receive enough nutrients to work well.

His heart was included in the part of the muscle touched. Like any young teenager, he panicked when he heard that. The last thing he remembered when his vision went black was the doctor telling him that he needed to calm otherwise he could have a heart attack.

This day he had his first cerebrovascular accident. He was reanimated quickly after but was no left without sequelae. He lost all motricity in his left arm and his vision deteriorated.

He didn't know what caused that stroke because normally a stroke like that happened when one of his blood vessel is blocked or burst but he was quickly tolf that it happened because his heart stopped beating during his panic crisis.

The doctors couldn't do anything for that without drugging him with calming agents and planning a daily meeting with a psychiatrist. Soon even the calming agents could kill him because of his body extreme weakness so he became interested in meditation.

But even with all his problems his dream of changing the world didn't perish. With the lab with which he worked before he started to develop a truly eco friendly energy source.

Next to this project, he made a lot of money by buying shares of different companies. A minor part of this money was invested in his project but the rest lay dormant in different banks around the world.

Months passed and soon his body broke down even more. He became totally deaf.

The same day that his ears couldn't let him hear the sound of his own voice, he opened a charity association. This association tried to improve the overall quality of life of the whole earth population, protected animals, plants, everything that could be done was done and the founds didn't lack so this organisation could make a lot of different actions. For exemple, the lowest life expectancy in a country went from 51 years old to 67 in no time. Wars were stopped, lives saved. And soon enough the new eco energy reactor came to the world. The atmosphere became purer, and all humanity developed quickly and this was quickly known as the golden age of humankind.

Golden age brought by Tom Ashtal who unfortunately never saw the fruit of his work.

Indeed, Tom died 42 days after his 13th birthday, 2 weeks before his project of eco reactor was completed. His last words were "My life was not meaningless, I leave a better world that I entered so I lived a happy life".

All his money was quickly shared around the world and given to the people that truly needed it. This really changed things because his fortune was so massive that the part of the money contributed to a global enrichment and so and improvement of the world life quality.

His grand-uncle died two years later at the old age of 93.

As the entire world mourned the demise of the most brilliant mind of the millenium, Tom soul that contained his mind, personality and memories entered a weird space.

In front of him, sitting on a comfortable looking rocking chair, an old woman was looking at him with kind eyes.

Suddenly a chair appeared from nowhere.

The old woman then started to speak

"Hello young one, you are the most benevolent soul that I have ever seen. Even people like Nelson Mandela and Gandhi were not as pure and powerful as you. So tell me young Tom, do you know the consequences of your act?"

Seeing that Tom was not responsive she continued.

" With your selfless act, you can now become a hero, a god, and maybe after billion of years even replace me as the chief god of all universe. Don't ask me anything and don't worry, I will explain everything to you."
