Part 1/8:
The Struggle for Superpowers in an Alternate Earth
In an alternate reality where every individual gains a superpower upon reaching adulthood, we find a young woman named Jen, who at twenty-five, has yet to unlock her own abilities. This ongoing deprivation of superpowers leaves her embittered and struggling with self-worth in a world where everyone is defined by their unique abilities.
Jen’s challenges begin with a disastrous job interview, where the employer's power to compel truth forces her to reveal embarrassing secrets, ultimately costing her the position she desired. That evening, her casual relationship with Luke also presents an emotional void, as he simply takes off after their encounter, flying out the window as he leaves Jen feeling unappreciated.
