Chapter 11

Waking up in a daze, Corven feels comfortable, more than he has before.

Managing to move his arm and sit himself up, he looks at the water and sees that its boiling.

'It feels so nice..' thinks Corven as he plays with the boiling water.

Standing up after a moment, he nearly falls from the change in hight and power that hes used to, before managing to catch himself.

"*grunts* Oh my God my head..*GAGS* and the smell.."Rushing to a bush to throw up, he manages to see the black sludge residue on the river sides. Even from that distance he can smell it perfectly, making him more nauseous than he already is.

"I..-I cant, I gotta lay down.." groans Corven as he walks back to his cave, noticeably slower than usual.

Knowing his power is much stronger than it used to be, he gently grabs the door to his cave, making sure to close it easily, as he goes to rest on his bed.

Finally laying his head down, he tries to go back to sleep, that way he can sleep away the side effects.

.

.

Sleeping proves to be much more difficult for the rest of the night...

Corven felt like he was getting up every other minute to either vomit or to shit, sometimes both due to his heightened sense of smell making the terrible odors worse. Not to mention his terrible migraines, whenever he was forced to get up he felt like his head would explode.

.

.

.

Walking out of his cave, gently closing the door, Corven looks up to the sky, seeing the sun in the middle of the day.

"I really managed to sleep till midday?, what is wrong with me." he says while shaking his head.

"At least everything is gone now...Besides these fucking headaches.." He says as he adjusts his aviator shades on his eyes.

"Most of my stats have quadrupled??, and I still have the T+G virus to take, though its effects will mainly be in agility, constitution and vitality, itll still provide me a another boost to the rest. I was right to mix body enhancements from different universes, the effects are greater than I thought." Says Corven in shock.

"I need to check on what abilities I've gained from the extremis virus."

"The effects of the original extremis are known as superhuman strength, speed, durability, and stamina, along with possible fire breathing, claws, an electric discharge, and a healing factor."

"But where do I even start practicing?"

"The people in those fanfics make it seem so easy." getting frustrated, Corven goes up to a tree.

"I'll have to start by testing my strength, a numerical value can only show so much." Says Corven as he clenches his hand to punch the tree.

Though before hes able to punch the tree, claws quickly grow out from his fingernails, puncturing into his hand.

{-1 health}

Hearing the notification and his hand in pain, Corven quickly relaxed and looks at his hand, revealing 4 puncture marks straight through his hand.

Its strange for Corven to see no blood, but instead black ash like particles, while the wounds glow orange, quickly healing themselves.

It doesn't take but a couple seconds for his wound to be completely healed, refilling his health bar completely.

"Healing factor and claws check. Though how did i do that?" he says as he clenches his hand again, causing his hand to get punctured.

Not minding the pain at the moment, he clenches his hand a few more times.

After a few minute he realizes what he's been doing and stops.

Playing with the leather strap of the aviator shades, he takes a deep breath to try and relax himself, its not too obvious at the moment, but he knows the side effects he gave the extremis virus.

"I need to try and keep my head clear and focused, grandma and grandpa wouldn't want this." he says as he lets go of the leather strap.

Tensing his hand while its open, the claws grow out of his fingernails once more.

Admiring his claws, he looks towards the tree, clashing at it with his hand.

Like a powerful dagger, his hand leaves a great gash in the tree, his claws not showing even a scratch.

"Thank God that worked or else I would've broken my fingers." says Corven with a chuckle.

Looking at his hand, Corven tries tensing up only his pointer finger, he succeeds, causing only his pointer fingers claw to pop out.

Heading back to his cave, he reaches up to the stone above his entrance, and presses his claw in, carving a square, and then writing his name inside.

After hes done, he smiles at his handy work.

"These remind me alot of Sabertooths claws, they're powerful and are retractable just like his."

"Well enough of the claws, its time to try out the other abilities."

Without having any other clue on what to do, Corven focuses on his heart, the source of his heat and exothermic powers.

Picturing his heart glowing and producing great heat, like a ball of fire, he imagines the fire plasma pouring into his lungs, until he breathes out.....

.

.

Making nothing happen.

"I suppose it isn't gonna be that easy *chuckles*. But I did feel heat being produced from my chest, so I suppose I'll have to train that more. Now let's try an electrical discharge."

Doing the same as he did before, he pictures the plasma pouring into his hands, keeping the fire plasma there, he imagines it transforming, becoming erratic and powerful.

Picturing it releasing from his hands, Corven touches a tree, causing it to be shocked and burnt.

Removing his hand, Corven can see a large burn mark, along with a large portion of bark ripped up into jacked lines, spreading from where his hand was.

"It seems like I have a better Affinity with the electrical side of the virus." ponders Corven.

After finishing with his trial run of using his super abilities, he then starts doing basic exercises seeing how much has changed, stopping for a break every now and then from the massive headaches he keeps getting.

After seeing his increases limits, he goes to rest inside his cave.

He eyes all the marks hes made on the walls, and when thinking about the entire month he's spent here, it just makes him lonely.

Sure hes enjoyed the quiet and the chance to really test the human limits, and survive, but its difficult being alone..

.

.

Shaking his head away from the lonely thoughts, he plays with his glasses as he looks through his inventory, which is filled with firewood, fish and rodents carcuses, many fruits and vegetables hes been able to eat, plenty of spears incase he needs them, and the T+G virus.

He knows he needs to inject it into his body, theres no point in adjusting to his power when his power will be raised right after.

Grabbing the syringe out, he injects it into himself, allowing the virus to pass through his blood stream, slowly bonding with his cells.

Preparing himself for the pain, Corven puts on his glasses, and clenches his teeth, feeling the pain slowly rising.
