Marvel: Exilir Rise Of The Mutant Empire

Armando Muñoz P.O.V.

I was born cursed according to my parents. By the age of four, I was bald and my arms were longer than any of the other children near my house. My eyes and my ears too were changing. My father called me a freak. My mother called me a devil.

Everyone in the neighborhood hates me. They bullied me for their leisure.

Maybe I was cursed by the Devil. That's why I don't deserve happiness. 

I mean look at me I can breathe underwater, my wounds heal after one-night rest.

My parents have been beating me from the age of 3. Sometimes they don't even feed me, some elderly people in the street do. 

Then today while doing some household work one of my father's Alcohol bottles fell from my hand and broke. My mother started shouting and slapping me. I was telling her to stop.

Then he came, a man wearing a tuxedo with a white mustache and beard. He was wearing white gloves.

He said he wanted to buy me. I was terrified after hearing the words he uttered. I know that my parents hate me and they will sell me without a hitch. And that's what they did. They sold me off for 30000 Dollars.

How could they do so, I was their child.

Now I am traveling by the man in his car. Generally, I can sense people's intentions like what they want. I don't know how I do it but I can. This trick helps me escape many bullying attempts. But this man is different, I can't sense anything from him. I sensed something when he first came to my house. It was anger, so much anger that I for sure knows that he was there to kill someone.

But it was only for a second after that it was gone and the second time that I sensed something was when he bought me, it was the feeling of relief. Why would he feel relieved? 

I stopped crying, he made me stop. He said, " Listen, Boy, even shit has more value than your tears." (An: Elephant shit has some antibiotic properties and is used for many types of medicine so yes it is true.) He was right. I was not gonna get any help from crying.

We stopped at a gas station to fill our fuel tank. He stepped out of the car, looked towards me and then went inside the store. He comes back with several packets of chocolate and ice cream. I have never had any of those things. Even the simple Food was a luxury to me, how could I have any of those. 

" You looked like someone who can eat a lot. I don't know your favorite ice cream flavor so I picked my favorite one for you." He said to me with a kind smile. I can't be wrong. He is genuinely smiling.

I just stared at him. 

" Go ahead and eat it. You will need it." He again said. No one talks to me that way. The way he talks with what is the word yeah politeness. 

I took the packets and started eating. The chocolate tastes heavenly. How can something taste so good? It melts the moment I put it into my mouth. It was so creamy and sweet. 

I hurriedly eat all of the chocolates. Some of it was still on my face. The old man chuckled and brought out a napkin.

" Eat slowly boy, it is all for you," he said with another chuckle. 

Then he opens the ice cream bucket. He hands me a plastic spoon. I started eating it too. The first time I just put a lot of Ice cream in my mouth and I felt a strong headache. What was it? The man looked toward me and smiled.

" you should always eat the ice cream slowly and don't eat too much in a single go or else you will be having a brain freeze that you experience. " He said. Oh, it is called Brain Freeze. 

For the whole journey, we didn't talk about anything. I have a lot of questions but I don't want to ask them. 

Finally, we reach our destination in the evening. It was wonderful. The place looked like a castle and it was surrounded by forest. The place also has a very big green garden which has white leaves trees. I haven't heard about these kinds of trees. Also, there were a lot of roses.

The old man parked the car in the Garage. There were a lot of cars there too, all of them looked expensive. 

When we moved to the house which looked like a palace, by the way, a woman around 35 was standing there. She was wearing some weird black and white dress.

" Welcome home, Sir Sebastian. " said the woman to the old man. So his name is Sebastian. She was happy and surprised at the same time. The surprising reaction might be because of me.

The old man looked toward the woman and said " It is always a pleasure to be home, Mary.

Is the young Master still busy in his work? "

The old man asked the woman. Who is this young master that they were talking to? 

" Yes, he is still busy. "

" You prepare the dinner table, I will notify the young master."

" also Mary, our little friend hasn't taken a bath today. Help him. Also, give him young master's old clothes, I forgot to buy new clothes for him." Says the old man.

I felt the woman was surprised to hear it. She has a disbelieving look on her face.

" yes, it will be done."

A/n; I am a firm believer that sometimes even the smallest thing can have the biggest effect on someone's psyche. Now you might be thinking that this chapter is worthless but it is this kind of thing which makes a character.

Also a heart full thank you to quenton.  He even sends the powerstones to the book when I was not even uploading the chapters. So in his respect, all of this week's chapters are dedicated to him. 

also I will release an extra chapter if the book reaches 500 powerstones. meaning 8 chapters this week.

9 chapters this week if the book crosses a 1000 powerstones.
