"Yaaaawww!" Leo yawned lazily as he stretched on his bed. He finally opened his eyes and looked at his clock. But what he saw was completely out of his expectations. "Oh shit! It's already ten in the morning?!" He jolted up and went straight to the bathroom. He brushed his teeth and took his bath at once. Heahead already been late to school before... but never this late. He was partly annoyed at his aunt. "Why didn't she wake me up?! I need to go to school!" he scolded. He quickly washed up and cleaned his body. He didn't even bother selecting his books and he just packed his bags and ran straight out of the room. His aunt had already prepared his food and put it in the fridge for him to just pick up and microwave. Leo would've ignored it and gone to school without eating breakfast, but he was just too famished this particular morning. He opened the fridge and found his food nicely packed in a plastic container. He took it out and checked it and what he saw, put a smile on his fa
Opening the door to the basketball court, Leo and Logan walked in with their shorts and tank top on, ready for another training. The place was a bit noisy at first, but their entrance silenced it all. Specifically, Leo's entrance silenced it. Everyone in the quote began to murmur and take glances at him. Leo and Logan looked around the spectator stand and it felt like being surrounded by enemies. Leo frowned but decided to act like he didn't know what was going on. "What are you all looking at?" he asked. Everyone quickly went back to their business, but still talked about him. He shook his head and sighed through his face mask and they both walked to Coach Emily who seemed to be writing something down in a handbook. "Hello, Coach." Leo greeted. Mrs. Hale glanced at him and didn't take her eyes off him. There were signs of wrinkles on her forehead, showing she was frowning, not out of anger, but slight suspicion. Leo didn't mind this and just stared her in the eye. Seeing Leo also
On a Saturday afternoon, in a basketball court on the street, four boys were standing there with their jersies. Three of them were facing the one with the ball, who seemed to be standing in front of the basketball hoop. "Can I ask why we're not using the school's basketball court?" one of them asked. The one facing all three boys smiled and replied him. "We don't need spectators. Flashy moves calls for lots of attention." he said. He was naturally Leo. The three boys in front of him were Quincy, Tyler, and Logan. Saturday was designated as a day off from training. That was the coach's order... or it was mainly because the rate of students passing out in her training started increasing. Some students even suggested she add Friday as day off too, but that was them stepping on her bottom line. She outrightly refused them. "So... how are we gonna start?" Quincy asked. Leo smiled and bounced the ball a few times as he paced to and fro. "This training is mainly going to be based on y
WHOOOSH Leo swept past Logan, Tyler, and Quincy with speed and scored immediately. The three boys against him were panting and sweating badly while Leo had barely broken a sweat. He was super strong and super fast, so this was all too easy for him. "Although you've all improved in terms of speed and strength, your teamwork is still quite lacking." He commented. Logan and Quincy gave frustrated sighs. They were putting in their all but they weren't getting anywhere. Logan knew quite well that their teamwork was almost flawless, but he knew what Leo was trying to do. Leo intends to make the three of them adapt to super-human abilities so that powerful normal players won't be their problem anymore. The truth was... it was working. Logan's mind and strategic skills were getting sharper, Tyler was beginning to look carefully before moving forward, and Quincy was starting to adapt to Leo's methods and was getting stronger and faster. Seeing that his three opponents were exhausted, Le
It was six in the evening, and dusk was fast approaching, slowly but steadily. Panting heavily on a street basketball court, were Leo, Quincy, Logan, and Tyler. Jessica too sat down and watched them, only that there was no enthusiasm in her eyes and she was mostly moody. Leo's mind too was barely on the game he was playing and he showed a few flaws which his teammates took advantage of, but still failed. However, they too were starting to improve. Quincy was getting faster and his dexterity was improving. Same with Tyler, while Logan is getting more and more strategic and calculative. Leo looked at his panting friends and he gave them all a thumbs-up while he was panting himself. "You did well boys... I... can see... your improve...ment" he said. Even with his godlike strength, playing basketball with those guys for hours was exhausting... and for Leo to be exhausted, means that the others are in a very dire situation. Quincy felt like he couldn't walk anymore, Logan felt the same a
"Well, everyone has been practicing, and you're all getting better in your cohesion—unlike before, and that is excellent." Mrs. Hale commended her students before adjusting her glasses. After a few seconds looking at the team with a smile, she continued, "However, you all need outside experiences to grow, which made me decide this… we'll be having a practice game." She finalized mysteriously."Practice game?" Every player on the field exclaimed in unison, and they all looked confused."Yes, a practice game." Mrs. Hale nodded. "In other words, you'll be playing against another school. They're also going to be participating in the tournament." She further clarified. "And which school are we going to be playing against?" Ray asked curiously, which made Mrs. Hale release a frustrated sigh."Don't be hasty, my boy. I was getting there." She said in a flirtatious manner before she decided to continue. Soon, a proud grin crept up to her face, which caused the students to suddenly have a bad
Leo walked to Mrs. Hale's side and braced himself for some kind of hit. The pressure he felt from the man approaching them wasn't ordinary at all. Mrs. Hale could see Leo tensed up, and she smiled and signaled for him to calm down. Leo didn't listen to her, but he wasn't doing anything overboard either. Instead, he let off his aura, too. The approaching man seemed to slow down slightly, before resuming his normal speed. He noticed a change in the air and felt it come from Leo. "Mr. Zack…" Mrs. Hale greeted respectfully, with red cheeks. Leo observed the man in front of him carefully, noting every little detail. White skin, pitch-black hair, broad chin, and very tall, taller than Leo. The man wore a black shirt inside while putting on a deep blue sports jacket. The rolled-up sleeves showed his hairy and muscular hands, which looked intimidating. Even without checking him out, Leo knew how muscular this man was. He looked into the man's eyes and all he saw were brown eyes, so de
At the sound of the whistle, both Kenny and Logan jumped to their limit, just to catch the ball that was just thrown into the air. Kenny, being slightly taller than Logan and having more power, caught the ball first. They both landed and Kenny pushed the ball forward fast. He bounced and ran with high flexibility and finesse, and he almost looked invincible. Logan quickly opened his chess domain and everything seemed like a chessboard to him. With this mode, he was able to calculate Kenny's moves quickly. He made a prediction and formulated a quick strategy. Logan quickly did a hand sign, and his teammates got the meaning immediately. After months of practicing, their teamwork was strong enough. And Logan, being the captain, made it even better, he was like the glue that joined his team together. Kenny was quickly double-teamed by Quincy and Collins immediately, following Logan's hand signs. Kenny smiled, as he was prepared for this, and he passed to Oliver, who was just running
