Seattle.
The largest city in the Pacific Northwest of the United States had only a short history of 150 years, but it was repeatedly rated as the " best place to live in the United States " and " best city to live and work in." In 1998, it was recognized as the city with the highest quality of life in the United States.
At the same time, many star companies on the West Coast gathered in Seattle. Buildings were erected one after another, attracting a large number of talents, materials, and money.
At night in Seattle, the city was gorgeous and dazzling. Pedestrians were bustling on the streets, enjoying the fruits of prosperity.
Suddenly, a deafening explosion shattered the bustling city.
The high-rise buildings in the city center seemed to have been hit by missiles. Smoke and dust soared into the sky, which was clearly visible even in the dim night.
"What happened?"
"A terrorist attack?"
The violent explosion still echoed in the streets. The people who were originally relaxed suddenly became nervous, especially the black smoke billowing building, which reminded people of the 911 tragedy a few years ago.
The tense atmosphere spread. Most of the residents fled back to their homes, hurriedly closed their doors and windows, picked up their guns, and waited for the follow-up with uneasy expressions. However, there were some who were not afraid of the commotion and ran excitedly to the scene of the accident.
In a moment, police cars and ambulances roared through the streets. There were also helicopters in the sky that constantly stirred up violent air currents. At the same time, the screens on the streets began to broadcast real-time news.
" All news helicopters in Dajin County are heading to Seattle. We don't have much information at the moment, but it's obvious that there was an explosion at Barra General Hospital. Please continue to pay attention to the live report..."
Han Lingqiu walked out of the alley and looked at the rising black smoke in the distance. She said gloomily,""I'm actually late again. This transmigration is too unreliable…"
This was the movie " Out of Control ". The movie was about three teenagers who accidentally discovered that they had superpowers, but they gradually lost control of them. This led to a war between superpowers that went out of control and eventually led to an irreversible path of destruction.
Unlike the mutants or Inhumans who often lost control of their superpowers, these three teenagers could control their superpowers 100% of the time. What they lost control of was their minds.
The protagonist, Andrew, was introverted, not good with words, and had a mild social phobia. He was bullied by his classmates at school, bullied by gangsters on the street, and abused by his father at home, causing him to be wary of everything around him. After he accidentally obtained the superpower to manipulate objects freely, Andrew's personality gradually changed from introverted to extreme. He distinguished himself from ordinary people and thought that he was the top predator in nature. He did not care about hurting others, just like how a lion would not feel guilty when hunting an antelope. In the end, in order to treat his seriously ill mother, he finally chose to take the risk. Unfortunately, his brain was not very good. He actually robbed a convenience store in a gas station. The staff in the convenience store was also stupid. They brazenly fired back at the gas station, causing a huge explosion at the gas station. Both of them were almost killed inside.
The explosion at Barra General Hospital was caused by Andrew, who had lost control.
His mother was the last ray of sunshine in Andrew's dark heart, but she passed away when he went to rob a convenience store. His father, who had severe manic depression, threw all the responsibility on him. Andrew, who was already mentally and physically disabled, completely collapsed. His powerful psychokinesis exploded and instantly destroyed half of the floor of Barra General Hospital. Then, he grabbed his father's body and threw him down from a building dozens of stories high.
Then, it was time for Andrew's cousin Matt to appear…
" What's that?!"
"Ah!"
"Heavens! Heavens!"
As a figure appeared in the billowing smoke, it set off a typical American scream, making the already noisy street even more noisy. Then, a figure fell from the sky like a meteorite and reached the high tide.
At this moment, he leaped out from the noisy crowd and crossed dozens of meters in an instant. He caught the falling figure in his arms and gently landed on the ground.
Whether it was the police who maintained order, the reporters with cameras, or the onlookers, all of them widened their eyes.
He flew?
He was flying!
Was there really a superman in this world?
The youth who landed on the ground was a little flustered. He had come to save his little companion, but everything had happened too quickly, so fast that he had no time to hide his face.
He wasn't a child anymore. He knew what it meant to expose his ability and be recognized.
"Matt!"
His girlfriend's surprised shout finally woke him up.
The young man hurriedly covered his face with his hood and pulled his girlfriend's hand as he ran. He whispered,"Kathy, we have to go, we have to go now…Get in the car, let's go!”
"What happened?" His girlfriend asked anxiously.
Matt stepped on the accelerator, and the Ford started up. After driving out of the crowd, he said in a deep voice,"Andrew is out of control!"
"What are you talking about?"
His girlfriend obviously did not understand what this had to do with Andrew.
"I'm sorry. I wanted to tell you. I…"
Before Matt could finish his sentence, his eyes suddenly widened.
In the night sky in front of them, a news helicopter hovered and fell very close to them.
His girlfriend couldn't care less about Andrew anymore and shouted in panic,""Oh my God, Matt, stop the car! It'll hit us. Stop the car quickly…"
Boom!
The helicopter landed in front of Ford, and it immediately set off a huge fire.
“shit!”
Matt, who almost died, couldn't help but curse. Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the window. It was a white policeman who shouted at them,"I'm sorry, get out of this road…"
Before he could finish his sentence, the police officer flew into the distance as if he was dragged by a speeding train.
"Oh my god!"
Matt's girlfriend was shocked. Matt suddenly grabbed her hand and shouted,"Hold on to me!"
"What?"
Before his girlfriend could figure out what was going on, she saw her Ford wobbling up into the sky. In a few seconds, it had surpassed the height of the tall buildings on both sides. She couldn't help but be shocked." Matt, what's going on?”
"It wasn't me, it was Andrew!”
Matt hurriedly replied," His ability is stronger than mine. I can't control him, and I can't control the car..."
Andrew, Matt, and Steve all received their powers at the same time, but the introverted Andrew was obviously better at it. After being controlled by Andrew's psychokinesis, Matt couldn't break free for a while. He couldn't even open the door.
"The car is going to fall! It's going to fall!"
The Ford, which was carrying two passengers, rose to an altitude of nearly 100 meters. Then, it began to sway, as if it could fall at any time.
"Andrew!"
"Andrew, Andrew, stop!”
Matt shouted in horror. A figure appeared in the blurry light.
That was Andrew.
He was about 18 or 19 years old, wearing a hospital gown. There were many bandages on his body, and half of his face had burn marks. His eyes were lifeless, as if he had no more attachment in the world.
Looking at his once closest friend, he let out a furious roar from his stiff mouth," Why did you catch him?"
"Listen to me…"
"I threw him down. Why did you catch him?!”
"Andrew, this is not a game, do you understand? You hurt a lot of people…"
"You're too weak, Matt! All of you, I'm stronger than all of you!”
" Andrew, listen to me. I need you to listen to me. Focus first…They can't stop us. It's not too late for us to leave…"
Matt tried to wake his cousin up, but Andrew, who had completely collapsed, obviously wouldn't wake up so easily. In fact, he didn't want to wake up again to face this world that made him despair.
"Don't tell me what to do. I'm the apex predator!”
"I've had enough! Everything was over! You're just like them. You treat me like scum and throw me aside…"
Andrew roared angrily. Ignoring the approaching helicopter behind him, he pulled hard with both hands, and an invisible telekinesis lifted a bus that weighed dozens of tons. Like throwing a shot put, it smashed towards the Ford where Matt and the other were.
"Andrew, don't!"
Matt shouted in horror. The bus was getting closer and closer. Seeing that the two cars were about to collide, the bus suddenly stopped.
A person was holding the bus with his hands. He turned around and smiled at him."Do you need help?"
