Chapter 5

Thomas is near his home when he realizes how stupid he was, he facepalmed hard enough to leave the print of his palm

"fucking hormones"

He started to count to 10, slowly

*breath in*

*breath out*

"Now i have to make my plans for the future"

1-Get a lot of books (repetitive ∞)

2-Start training an martial art and be the best

3- Get my own money (until i haven't to care more about it)

4-If i have time, get the booty.

Thomas give himself a pat on the back for an excellent life plan, his next step is going to the library

He ran into a little library in his way home, it looks nice enough, a few couches here and there, a zone if someone wants to drink a coffee, the library in the back.

The clerk is just in the front reading something at his side is the cash register

When Thomas enters the store the clerk looks at him "Hi there, you look new, so I'm going to make it simple there are two principals sectors, the one of the left is to buy, the one in the right is to rent but to rent one you have to pay a quota, like a library, you get me there?" i nod "Perfect, each of the sectors have a sub-sector were they separate from genres to themes, that's it. Oh! and if you want to drink something you have to ask our waitress, any questions?"

"None for now" Thomas starts walking toward the first bookshelf and take the first book, a book that reads 'how to play the guitar', he can feel at the moment he touches it a tingle in his mind, then he closes his eyes and tries to look for it. In his conscience, he sees rows and rows of bookshelf

'so, this is the library of the heaven path uh? this is going to be some much fun *chuckle*, now let's start to copy these books in my library'

'i should concentrate on some themes like some martial arts, some arts like playing music (any instrument), painting, hmm some studies like engineering, chemistry, maths, etc i can have the theories but if i don't have the practice doing the calculations it's all for nothing'

One can see Thomas in the library touching and making a copy in his library oh the heaven path all the books that fit into his criteria about what's important to learn, also one can see him touching all the others books because of reasons...

*************************************************

When he was about ¾ to finish copying the library the clerk shows up "Sir if you're not buying anything i have to ask you to leave"

'what this guy is serious?'

"and how do you know that I'm not buying anything"

"you are touching all the books and you already pass the most interest ones, so are you tell why or I have to kindly ask you to leave"

I could answer him that this is my hobby or this is the way I chose a book... hmm fuck it

I take my wallet from my pocket, that fortunately, the gang didn't take it from him.

I open the wallet, take a hundred bill between my fingers "I'm gonna pay you $100 to fuck off"

the clerk watches the bill then at me, he takes it and leaves quietly...

When i am finally outside, i stop to appreciate the view of Gotham city, a group of kids trying to rob a lady, the cops are trying to get their lunch for free and some money for 'protect' them. The passersby walking like used about this occurrences daily, *sigh* the great city of Gotham, the most corrupt city of America, it's not the best place to start, but you have start somewhere...

I look at the lady getting robbed and i ask myself, what i am a hero, a villain?

No, I think that i am someone that does everything i want, when and how.

I am not going to patrol the streets to catch some bad guys, maybe for the fighting experience, but not to stop the evil or a noble cause. That doesn't mean that i not going to save someone in crisis in front of me, maybe for this, i get the resentment form some heroes and some villains, but who cares what they think about me and what I do, 'fuck them',

Whit the library of heaven path, I can do whatever i want, i am going to learn all this world have to teach me, martial arts, magic, knowledge and then perfect it, yeah i am going to be the best

So, what i am going to do? who knows only the time will tell, i take another look to the lady, the robbers are taking her purse. This is the chance to do something, stop the robbers, beat them a little, give back the purse to that lady and be her hero for the day.

But putting in another point of view, i am not trained, no experience with this body and i didn't fuse together the books i have so there is no way to know if by any chance there is a technique of the heavenly fist or something like that, so going there is practically suicide, yeah no thanks

i make a half turn and make my way to home, whistling the song Don't Worry Be Happy i ignore her screams for help, maybe some wannabe hero rescue her, i don't care, if she was being forced to have sex i will try to do something, she will live...
