Ch - 12 Observation?

In a spacious gym filled with all kinds of equipment, a man around 23-24 years of age, with a physique that looked sculpted by the god of perfection, was performing a set of exercises and martial arts. The gym had cameras installed in each corner, monitoring every movement of the man. The one exercising was none other than Swayam.

It has been three months since I woke up, and five months more for Barry Allen to wake up.

During the time I've spent under observation, I think I understand what my ability is, although I haven't been able to use it fully.

Even if I desperately want to use them, I am refraining myself from doing so. I am only using the abilities that were initially and inevitably activated when I was unconscious or when I just woke up. These include, hyper-regeneration, enhanced speed and strength, greater perception, and blood control.

Although I have other abilities, these are the only once known by the trio.

To some, I might seem like a coward, but you can never be too cautious when it comes to matters of life and death. In the DC Universe, you never know from where, when, how, why, or what someone might try to manipulate, kill, or even erase you from the timeline. I am especially in danger since I am certain that my mere existence here has definitely affected the timeline.

While Swayam was exercising, Eobard was monitoring his every move. Although Swayam didn't display any particularly exceptional abilities, the once he did show were already enough to amaze Eobard, especially the blood manipulation. Even though Swayam wasn't able to utilize its full potential, it was still a unique ability. Eobard believed that once mastered, this ability could potentially kill anyone, including humans, enhanced humans, meta-humans, mutants, half-aliens, aliens, perademons, demons, demigods, and even gods. However, its passive nature made it extremely difficult to use actively.

As for Swayam, the boy seemed no threat to Eobard and didn't appear to be the cause of the altering timeline. However, his anomalous existence still left traces all across the timeline, much like each member of Team Flash. Eobard stopped doubting him only when the timeline stabilized and he inquired Gideon about Swayam.

Although the timeline initially became chaotic due to the anomaly, it eventually integrated Swayam, causing the future to change slightly but keeping the outcome the same: the Flash vanishing in the Crisis. The only difference in the future was the addition of Swayam as a member of Team Flash.

The reason I am not outright erasing the anomaly and changing the timeline is because whenever I consider doing so, the titimeline descends into chaotic mayhem. It was as if, the instant he got transported here, his existence became permanent. So, even though he shouldn't have existed, he now does. His presence is all over the multiverse, and he has become a singularity.
