The time has come. The fight between Andrew and Ken is about to start but both can’t control their laughter.

  “Are you sure, you want this fight?” Andrew asked. “Yes, let’s do this,” Ken.

  Then the fight started. Ken has this plan of waiting or blocking for 5 minutes and once power gets unlocked then he can easily win.

  “All I have to do is just defend,” Ken half-smiled. Andrew came forward to give the first blow, Ken thought of escaping it.

  But his body coordination is too bad for even reacting quickly.

  Bang!

  Andrew gave a hard punch to Ken’s face. He was not giving up as he starts hitting Ken.

  “Oh my god, what’s happening?” Ken couldn’t stop one hit. “Why is 5 minutes this long?” he thought while getting humiliated by Andrew.

  3 minutes into the fight, Ken hits= 0 and Andrew hits = 10. Ken was nearly unconscious.

  Then Andrew gave him one last punch as Ken fell. Andrew felt bad for him as he carried him to almost his house.

  “What happened to me?” Ken woke up finally as he couldn’t control his pain.

  “You fell and I carried you all this way,” Andrew replied.

  “Thank you, Andrew, you are super strong,” he told. “Am I that weak?” he then asked.

  “Yes, you are,” Andrew said that directly to his face. “I should get strong,” Ken.

  “Tomorrow, let’s fight again,” Ken suggested even though he was beaten up all over his body.

  “As long as you are fine with getting beaten, I am fine,” Andrew with a cold reply.

  That night, Ken realized he was not strong as he imagined him to be.

  “What should I do to get stronger?” his mind needed answers.

  The next day arrived as Ken does the usual thing going to college, thinking about his powers and Lucera then returning to home.

  “Today, I must win,” he took a resolution as he left home. “What is he going to do today,” Andrew also left.

  The venue looked more serious than the previous day. Ken wanted to win desperately but Andrew was just playing along with Ken.

  The fight started and Ken this time tried to give Andrew a punch.

  “I got this,” He got the punch that he was about to give as Andrew started playing with him.

  “No way, I am losing again,” he muttered. “You are too slow,” Andrew hits him as quick as a light.

  4 minutes into the fight, Ken fell again, this time survived 1 minute more.

  Andrew once again carried him home but this time he just woke up nearing home.

  “Thanks, Andrew but don’t forget I will win tomorrow,” Ken was exhausted.

  “Why am I getting punishment (carrying ken home) while he clearly lost,” Andrew thought while walking home.

  The next day arrived. Ken goes to college and the same routine happens again and he returned home.

  This time Ken thought whether to go or not as he is feeling the pain in his face.

  “Let’s do it my way, he picked up his coin, heads mean I won’t go and tails mean I will go,” he nervously tossed it.

  Tails. “Ahh, I don’t want to go but I have to beat him just once,” he sets a mini goal.

  Then he started walking and reached before Andrew. Andrew came 3 minutes after.

  “I need to hit him once first,” Ken sharpens his eyes.

  Their fight didn’t last long as Andrew defeated Ken again. Even the birds that were around the previous day aren’t there as they know the outcome.

  “I need 2 days break, so let’s fight on Monday,” Ken suggested as his entire body felt the pain.

  “Ok, take care,” Andrew left.

  The next day, Ken goes to college and spoke with Andrew. He asked him about the techniques to fight.

  “Fighting isn’t entertainment, it’s only needed when we need to protect someone,” Andrew told him.

  “Only when you feel you have to protect someone, you unleash your full power,” he added.

  Only then ken realized fighting is not necessary but a final option when there is no other way.

  He thought about this even after he returned home. He thought “I have to be stronger enough to protect others”.

  Sunday arrived as he remembered he had to meet Lucera and his friends. He started walking to the park.

  “Where are you, Ken?” the text read. “I finally received the text,” Ken.

  “I am on the way to the park,” he replied. “Ok, I will there soon,” Lucera told him.

  He then reached the park and saw none of Lucera’s friends. “Maybe I am too early,” he thought.

  He thought his fights and was contemplating while sitting on a bench.

  Only then he realized he had no purpose to fight. “Maybe if I have some reason to fight, I might win,” he thought.

  Then her friends started appearing, first one being Violet. Then came Lucera and everyone had come within like next 15 minutes.

  Ken heart shifted from fighting hard to light when he started speaking with Lucera.

  “I don’t like texting, that’s why I didn’t text a lot,” Lucera told him. “Speaking face to face is my way rather than texting,” she added.

  “I hadn’t received any message from any one, you were the first person to send me, thank you” he felt needed for the first time in his life.

  “Even though I am happy texting, I also didn’t feel the same way like we speak,” he told her.

  Then he started reading Lucera and her friend’s minds. He felt nothing more that a regular mind, nothing too crazy.

  When the time is about to hit 11.00am, the voice in the park seems to raise.

  Everyone started running towards the entrance. Ken and his friends can’t sit there without thinking.

  “Let’s see what’s happening?” Ken suggested. “Ok,” everyone replied.

  As they were about to reach the entrance, they started hearing fighting sounds.

  “Is someone fighting there?” Ken’s mind. When he moved into the crowd forward to see what is happening, he saw something shocking.

  Lucera and her friends were standing behind Ken and asked him “What’s happening, Ken?”.

  Ken couldn’t believe his eyes as he wiped his eyes to check whether what he was seeing is true or not.

  He saw someone beating his college mate, Harkey.

  Harkey is this nice guy, who is good all round when it comes to both studying and sports.

  He even has a lot of friends, whenever Ken saw him, he thought he would never get such friends.

  Ken never talked to him as he thought Harkey was this big guy, he wouldn’t talk to a small person like me.

  But when he saw Harkey getting beaten up, he couldn’t resist himself. “Wait a minute, Lucera,” he told her.

  “When a strong person like him gets beaten, how could a person like me fight for him?” he thought.

  “Why are you weak, beat me,” told the guy who is fighting.

  Harkey was about to fell as he couldn’t block anymore.

  “Why is no one stopping that guy?” Ken thought as he stood watching.

  That guy started hitting brutally, “What happened to your voice, you are not speaking now,” he asked while beating.

  When that guy was about to give a final blow, a man entered.

  Everyone couldn’t stop the fight and save Harkey except one.

  “Who are you,” That guy asked when a man blocked his hands.

  “A Coin Flipper,” told Ken as everyone was stunned seeing him block.

  A Heads landed on Lucera’s hands.

  Ken flipped a coin when he couldn’t make a decision to whether or not enter the fight.

  But when he saw Harkey about to fell, he caught and throwed his coin away.

  “Coin flipper? you must be kidding,” said Medrick as he introduced himself.

  “I don’t even know to make a choice but here I am fighting with a guy who I has no chance of even beating once,” he thought while holding Medrick’s hands.

  “You have no chance of beating me, coin flipper,” Medrick landed a heavy blow on Ken.

  Ken face turned red and thought he shouldn’t give up.

  Ken tried blocking all his shots but couldn’t. Medrick was ruthless as he started hitting him hard.

  Ken didn’t try hitting him. He was about to be exhausted.

  “I shouldn’t give up, I need to protect Harkey,” his heart was not giving up either.

  Lucera couldn’t hold her tears as she was seeing Ken getting beaten mercilessly.

  5 minutes passed on.

  “Ahh, I need to use it,” Ken starts using his power as he started reading Medrick’s mind 2 seconds from the present.

  “Left side kick,” Ken escaped. “Punch the face straight,” Ken dodged it.

  Ken started picking up. He got the flow but he was still getting beaten here and there.

  “Strong, weak doesn’t matter,” he shouts while fighting.

  “Hurting others is not the right thing,” Ken coughed, he couldn’t speak.

  “But I am not the right person to follow it,” Ken shouted while pulling his arm back as he feels like he is the strongest out there.

  “If a saviour doesn’t come to save people, I would become one to save it all” he gave his full strength in his fist as his screamed.

  “Ahhhhhh,” he dashed Medrick’s face with all his might.

  Huge silence around the park.

  The crowd was shocked as they saw a saviour for the first time. Lucera’s tears went off as she stood stunned.

  Harkey watched one of the powerful punches he would see right in front of his eyes.
