Chapter 2: NEW WORLD & FIRST TIME

Reality swirled and the boy woke up with noise flaring around him,and he looked around. "Th-this is a school.....right?" He thought to himself before foreign memories flooded him and causing a minor headache.

"Hey you alright Alex?" Recovering a bit he turned his head toward the voice behind him. "P-peter?" He stuttered.'This is Spiderman right? I'm in his class?'

"Yeah I'm alright. I just dizzy spell, nothing major," Alex replied. 'He doesn't look like any of his movie counterparts' he thought as he eyed Peter.

"Oh, then it's alright. As I was asking do you want to come by this weekend? Ned and I are going to play games this Saturday," Peter asked excitedly staring at Alex.

"Hmm? Not this weekend....I need to sort out some things, maybe next time," said Alex causing Peter to look a bit disappointed."Ah the teacher's here," Alex quickly said and skillfully ran away from the conversation.

'So this is my new life huh. Alexander Gen, Asian-American 17 years old. Transferred to Midtown High last month and made friends with Peter... somehow and even more incomprehensibly Harry Osbourne,' Alex sighed shifting through his memories. 'He is an orphan, but his-my parents died 3 years ago so my buttler's been taking care of me since. Buttler....so I'm rich? No barely second class, seems like my family owned a few metal making companies worth a few mil...damn!' he mused as his new memorise fully integrated.

'Then where is my cheat? That thing(apostle) said I get an ability or power or some kind of perk right?' he asked himself.

Ding*[System booting up....01%...02%...09%]

Alex looked at the screen in in front of him in excitement and impatience as it continued counting up,'T-this is it, this is awesome!!!' he shouted in is mind. 'No, calm down, wait until it reaches 100% before drawing a verdict. I've seen those novel and manga protagonists get a shitty system stuck to them, I just hope mine isn't like that,' he thought looking a the screen.

[System booting up....78%...81%...99%....100%]

Ding*[System boot up completed]

"Status" he suspected almost as quit as he saw the 'completed' message. And with that command popped up a screen.

'So... extraction is the systems main ability?' Alex thought to himself.'It certainly does qualify as a cheat, since Peter's and Harry's likability is so high I should be able to draw abilities from them. First up,since Peter is the closest I'll chose him for now.'

'Extract' he mentally said before a bunch of system prompts appeared before his eyes.

Ding*[Extraction initiated.....Randomising]

Ding*[Congratulations you have obtained <<Adsorbent ability>>]

Ding*[Congratulations you have obtained <<Spidey sense>>]

He immediately became more alert and sensitive to all that was happening around him. It was like everyone and everything suddenly slowed down and he felt a tingle it was this tingle that caused Peter shoot his eyes over to Alex in front. 'Wh-what is this? it feels.....weird....amiliar. No way is Alex like me....does he have the same powers as me?' Peter was shocked when he came to such a conclusion. He stared at his friend for a bit then thought to ask him later when class was out.

'This feels incredible it's like I came feel my surroundings....hmm? My thinking speed is a bit faster than before. This is awesome,' he was euphoric when such a change occured. Time passed, the moment the clock and bell signalled the end of school he bolted out the door as fast as he could disappearing amongst the crowd leaving a flabbergasted Peter alone in the seat behind him. It did not take long for Peter to snap out of his stupor and chase after Alex but he had already disappeared.
