The next day, Ryla woke up and discovered something strange —some screen-like wording in front of her eyes. “Can this be… my power?” She thought to herself whilst reading the wording.

Ryla realized that it, in fact, was her power and felt overjoyed. She giggled and decided to tell her parents about it, hoping to make them proud of her for once. She hesitated for a moment and thought using her power first would be better than directly telling someone who she wasn’t sure about how their reaction would be.

Ryla saw the underwhelming results and decided to do her normal weekend routine —watching the morning news while eating her boiled eggs and ham. Well, at least it was an Information type power that she desired most.

Soon, she noticed something rather interesting in the morning news —a group of power-wielders who call themselves “Squad One” of “The Original Humanity” were terrorizing citizens and causing destruction to monuments and buildings in the city— seemingly a group of no-good evil-doers who ruin people’s lives. Ryla thought about it and used her power again.

“Hahah! Those chances are looking soooo fineee.” Ryla noted to herself, letting out a chuckle as she pictured the scenario of what happens soon.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAyNswnNtZlB
“Ahem. It’s breakfast time. What are you laughing about? Go study and be a doctor then you can laugh as much as you want. You don’t even have good grades and you’re laughing all the time. You should focus on your studies more!” Declared a slender looking woman, seemingly in her 30s, with long, bleached hair and an apron on.

“It’s fine, Mom. I was laughing too. Look at the news! That child in the background is playing pranks on his friend! It’s so funny!” Giggled Rina in a squeaky, high-pitched voice.

Her mother gave her a curt nod and continued to cook porridges for the family.

After having dinner and showering, Ryla told her online friends on her Smileslink communication app about her power and ask them for help to defeat the villains. Some of her online power-wielder friends decide to help defend their city.

Traecil, female, age 24, power: Precise Snips, can automatically make an outfit simply by thinking of the design. No materials needed. But it must make sense. No superpowers can be automatically shot out from the clothing unless it is physically and scientifically logical. But she can add a little spark of power in it to make it more convenient/comfortable to wear, e.g. it’ll never feel too hot or cold, it’ll never fall off unless you want to remove it, it’s waterproof, it’s fire resistant etc. (Creation)

Traecil agreed to make outfits for them for free. So, everyone told her their clothing sizes. However, she disagreed to be a hero because she just wants to keep working in her clothing, being she’s one of the best tailors in Smilestown, she had enough income from running the store. And being a kind and helpful person, she agreed on makin

g outfits for every hero they recruit soon or in case they want another outfit.
