Chapter 2: Imitation Contradiction (ii)

Wow, damn it! I leaped towards danger without even thinking for a single time! Am I going to die just like this, tightly closing my eyes because I am scared of an animal in front of me, without trying to do anything to save myself, letting people watch me being torn into pieces and being eaten by this animal?! No! Impossible! I too want to be strong like my pals, I too want to win the 1st place in running race, I too want to score many goals and baskets, but the thing is I can’t do it. But this is my chance to prove. If I can beat this panther down, I shall be looked upon! Oh no, one of its paws is coming for me! What should I do?! Oh my God!! Yeah, got it, run!! I start running to survive by taking shelter. No, I shouldn’t do this, if not how can I show them that I am strong? No, I should be like the eagle not like those birds! Birds take shelter during rain while eagles fly above the cloud to avoid it. I want to show them what I have really got, I want to shine like the sun! So, that’s why I have to burn like the sun too! Come on panther, burn me! Try it, I won’t die, I’ll only shine!

^^^{End of first-person point of view}^^^

The black panther which was about quarter the size of the school and more than 50 times the size of him, came towards him with its claws aiming at his neck. He was very frustrated inside but didn’t show it on his face. His expressions were as if he knew what to do. He looks straight right into the panther’s red eyes and utters the words, “Gems’ Ray Form One!” and stays still staring deep into its eyes. In flash on seconds, its claws crack by an invisible force. Its claws crack and disappear into thin air. Slowly, the same happens with its body too. What was shattering away the animal’s body was not known, because it was not visible to anyone other that him and the panther. The force doing all the actions was something not visible to the ***** human eyes. And, the spine of that force came from him, its spine came from those words said by him, “Gems’ Ray Form One.” He was still wearing the same expression, as if nothing happened. He was relieved a little since the panther had been destroyed. Finally, there was silence and peace again. He liked the quite atmosphere a lot. There was silence because everyone was shocked, shocked because of what he did. The silence was suddenly broken by a noise, “Ting ting ting ting ting!!!!” and not by the loud cheers he was expecting for being cool. The noise was of his alarm ringing to wake him up from his sleep and fantasy land for another tiring day. He got up slowly sitting on his bed and said, “Ahh, another cool imitated dream by me..” while yawning.

“Yah Ethan! Go and brush your teeth fast!” A woman screaming from outside his bedroom door could be heard.

[P.S.: Thank you dear sir for your words of wisdom.

“All birds find shelter during a rain. But the eagle avoids rain by flying above the cloud. Problems are common, but attitude makes the difference.”

“If you want to shine like a sun, first burn like a sun.”
