Time, fascinating, time, that's what he was lacking.
Wasn't it?
Only a few days had passed and tomorrow was his birthday, which somehow made him happy but at thes same time, wasn't this just another opportunity for life to fuck him over.
Connor was currently lying on his bed, well junk he arranged to be a bed, he was currently tired, he had tried to see if he had any other power but came back with no answers, the most he could do was this, telekinesis which was at most barely reliable.
Little by little he stood up and stretched his arms. He wondered what he should do today when his stomach grumbled.
Well that was enough of an answer, he first needed to get something to eat for the day.
—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Connor walked through the little supermarket trying to remain unnoticed as he put things into his pockets, or under his shirt.
It seemed to be working pretty well, he had gathered a pretty good amount of food, but as soon as he walked to the exit he saw a man waiting for him at the door, which could only mean something.
"Shit" he whispered and tried to find if there was another exit, there wasn't one, so he turned around only to see the man creeping, walking, seemingly closing the distance while trying to stay aloof.
It would be shitty if he got caught, it would just suck completely. However, looking at him and another guard he realized something.
'He is not from the store' he realized as he looked that the man who was at least 6'3 was wearing a suit and the other security guards were just wearing the usual uniform
He had a suspicion about who it could be but maybe it was time for a direct approach.
He slowed down his steps and quickly a hand reached his shoulder stopping him from moving forward.
He turn back, already knowing who it could be, already analyzing how to escape.
"Come with me ki-" The man tried to speak but was shut down as he felt something hit his stomach hard, but he wasn't trained for nothing. He grabbed harder onto Connor as Connor squirmed in pain.
The man turned him around and the only idea that connor had was to blow his head up so he raised his hand as high as he could, aiming at the face of the guy, but for some reason his power betrayed him, or maybe it listened more than it could cause one second he was there at the supermarket and the next he was gone.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Connor saw how a little black guy was born, how the mother cried in pain and died from the birth, how the doctors were amazed at the resilience of the baby, he could feel the pity and sadness that the room engulfed him in
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then Connor saw how the little guy was raised, all in the span of a second and years at the same time, how he grew up only with his father, how he relied on him for everything.
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later he saw how the father's child was murdered and the kid kidnapped, and the more he saw the more he understood, the more the picture was making itself clear.
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then he saw how they tortured the boy and trained him at the same time all under the same motto, "Hail hydra"
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that he saw a more grown up version of the kid, looking exactly like the person in front of him, next to him was a woman who had a blind eye and a brown one, looking no older than thirty and with a suit just like him.
"¿Are you sure?"
"Yes, the kid there is a mutant. I just can't tell what his power is, if we weren't so close I wouldn't even be able to sense him.
"Fine, wait by the parking lot I should be done with this soon enough."
"Bring him alive" the woman stopped for a second and look at the man's eyes and it was a little creepy considering her left blind eye "Hail hydra"
The man nodded "Hail hydra"
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It would take a fool not to understand what happened and trying to keep his luck he tried something.
"Forget" Connor said.
He didn't know if he was wishing too much or if it would actually work but considering how exhaustive it felt to even say those words with the intention and how slowly he could feel his power creeping up the man's mind and whisking away every remnant of a memorie, he guessed it was working.
Soon the man caved to his knees and tried to gasp for air, but it seemed like he had forgotten how to do that too, meanwhile Connor could feel bilis coming up his throat but decided to ran away into the parking lot first, he had things to settle.
AN: Hey guys I realized something, I could realese shorter chapters but way more quickly, right now I do not want to write long chapters, at least not until what I have planned happening, however the next one would probably include a timeskip so be ready for that
