Multi-Gene

A cool stream of energy envelopes his body. David felt as though something within him had broken and has been melted down.

Bringing his palm to his face, a crimson fluid like substance very similar to blood flowed and immediately coated his right palm, eventually wrapping around his fingers and then hardening, forming deep red sharp claws that glowed with intensity.

David face broke out into a smile seeing this. He had finally awaken his element and able to manipulate them.

Bringing out a pen from his pocket, his deep crimson claws snapped it into two like it was made of cheese. A voice suddenly interrupted him from his daze.

"Mr Hills, seeing as you find what I'm teaching boring, it proves you have read about this topic. Would you mind teaching the class for me."

David raised his head only to find the entire class of 60 students staring at him along with the teacher.

Not at all embarrassed, he withdrew his crimson colored claws and indifferently stood up, walking to the front of the class. There was a mathematical formula halfway solved on the holoboard.

Grabbing stylus pen, David tilted his head and then frowned. Suddenly, he waves his hands, erasing most of the solutions the teacher had written, which drew various gasp of shock from the other students.

The teacher sneered coldly. Now that you've erased it, let me see how you will answer the question.

David ignored the expression of shock from the other students and then proceeded to rewrite the answer to question using his own mathematical technique.

Under two minutes, the entire board had been filled with lots of formulas and calculations. With double lines at the end of his answer, he dropped the stylus pen and then went back to his seat.

At this point, the teacher's mouth was already wide open. He kept glancing at his Holotab and then at the board. David's answer was correct and the technique he used was one of the more advanced mathematical techniques used to answer the question. He couldn't help but glance towards David's receding back.

Seeing that the students were looking at him, Teacher Jones immediately cleared his throat. "Ehem. So that's how to answer the question. Now let's go to page 45 of the file..."

The lecture went on for another 15 minutes before the a soft ding sound echoed through everyone's ears using their Bio-comms. A wireless comms which is usually installed below the ears.

Everyone immediately got out of their seat, exiting the lecture room. David could feel the teacher's stare at the back of his head but he ignored it.

Ever since Mrs Hills picked him up from the road that day, he couldn't remember anything except his name and he realised he had special abilities apart from the norms.

Like Teacher Jones stare, he could see everything within five meter radius from him with ultra clear resolutions when he wished. Another thing was he had enchaced hearing and improved sight. He could literally hear the heartbeat of a person a half a kilometer away from him.

And his thirst for blood, what the hell was that about? It was the only thing that freaked him. If it weren't for the fact that it stops when he wills it to, he might have turned into a blood sucking monster.

An holographic image popped up from his wrist. Checking the message, he saw it was a reminder for his next class. Combat Practice.

David was strangely looking forward to it. Which was another thing he noticed. He loved violence with as much as he loved Mrs Hill's cooking. There was nothing that interest him more than violence. Of course he didn't like to be on the receiving end. As long as he was the one dishing the beating.

Moving with the stream of students heading outside the building, David walked slowly toward his destination. The sun softly caressing against his body, illuminating his golden hair as they seem to glow like wild fire. The walk was an enjoyable one which sadly came to an end.

Before him was a col​i​se​um almost similar to colosseums, spanning almost a kilometre wide. It was like a large stadium but with walls built around them instead of chairs. Various students were already practising amongst themselves within various sectors of the building.

Having reached here, David walked into the building, found a place to settle and observe. He found the fighting seem different than what he was used to, but David couldn't put a finger on it since he couldn't remember what he was used to anyways.

But he was happy since he had finally awakened his flux energy, giving him the ability to control his element according to his will.

David was still staring at the two people practicing their technique with each other when he heard a clap resounded from the top of the large wall of the colosseum.

Surprised, the students immediately assembled seeing as it was their Combat Teacher. The combat teacher was a middle-aged man with strong and muscular body. He was really good looking for his age.

Suddenly, he leapt the twenty meters tall wall and just as he was about to land, two metal like objects similar to spiders legs erupted from his back and stabbed at the wall, slowing his decent with massive amount of sparks emerging from the friction.

"Bang!"

He finally landed and walked towards his students. David seem to find this scene familiar, like some sort of deja vu, but he couldn't remember where or how it was familiar.

Without bothering about formalities, he clapped his hands. "This past few months, we've gone over the basic Combat technique with each other, it's time for you out put it to test against real life danger. Stand before the gates , one person one gate. Chop! Chop!"

With slight sceptism, the students obeyed, standing before the gates. There were up to a hundred gates within the colosseum therefore it was enough to contain the students the with even spare gates left.

As this happened, the Combat teacher opened his holotab and clicked on a few buttons. Abruptly, a forcefield locked the students within, separating them with the other students and locking then with the gates before them. The students starts to panic!
