Secret Between Brats Like Us

I must admit that childhood is still the most beautiful time to remember. In my memory, most of the activities I did were just playing, playing and napping. When I was little, I had a close friend who lived in the same neighborhood as me. We were always together and inseparable. When we got to the 5th grade of elementary school, something funny and embarrassing happened.

We were a group of three and each of us loved fantasy movies. More precisely, animated movies where the characters have superpowers to fight enemies and save the city. Over time, this passion became an unbearable wild obsession. We started fantasizing about having our own powers and decided to think hard about how we could achieve our fantasies.

One day my friend suddenly called us all together. We arrived at our gathering point under a thick rain tree.
"Guys, I have valuable information that I found on the internet yesterday!" Andi, the person who gathered us was so excited. My other friend Candra and I waited.

"I accidentally browsed the stories of people from around the world who were blessed with superpowers and accidentally found a website that contains methods of learning to gain super power ability instantly!"

Candra and I were shocked to hear that statement, our eyes lit up like a predator that found its prey. "Have you learned the method!" I asked.

"I've printed out all the information!" Andi handed me an A4-sized sheet of paper. On each sheet was a list of superpowers and how to learn them. We took turns scanning each sheet. The list included methods of having the strength of 1000 elephants, mastering the elements of fire, water, lightning, seeing the future, illusionary abilities and many more.

Our confidence in having superpowers peaked. We decided to follow the method found on andi's printed information and decided to choose what kind of power we wanted to master and learn.

I'm interested in having the power to control the wind. This decision was made on the basis that the use of this power would be very useful such as creating a breeze to relieve heat. Andi wanted to have the power to create lightning on his body while Candra wanted to learn to master the fire element.

After discussing it for a while, we all agreed to keep this training plan as a secret. We wanted to surprise the people around us with the powers we had learned. The location of the training will be a large field in front of my house, an area that is rarely accessed by people. So it would be very potential for us to make it a place for secret superpower training.

Training at the field

When the first day of training began, we were very enthusiastic. We first did physical exercises as a warm-up including running around the field, push ups and sit ups several times. After that, it was on to the main training. The key to this training is simple, we just need to make strong suggestions about the strengths we want to master. For example, when I want to master the wind element, I just need to focus on suggesting that I am the wind that blends between the air and the falling leaves.

That's the kind of training we go through on a daily basis. Sometimes we also had small picnics in the training area. Our fantasies were really wild back then, we began to imagine that if one day our powers appeared, we would create our own secret base that contained visual monitors all over the world to keep an eye on the crime rate. We also fantasized about becoming a group that traveled to remote parts of our country to help people in need.

Our training process took a long time until we advanced to the next class. But afterward, our training activities became less frequent due to other commitments. For some reason at that time, we no longer felt the desire to be superheroes. Maybe it was because there were many more interesting games that made our desire to have superpowers fade away.

Even today, when the three of us get together and remember our training and fantasy moments, we always laugh out loud. Now that we're in college and adults, we consider ourselves too innocent to believe in such things back then.

Sort:  

The thoughts of having a superpowers was that of the kids in the characters speaking and it's like that for almost every kid. We wanted to become something extra ordinary but we gave up on those silly dreams because gradually, reality began to kick on us.

Cool story.

i just realized that silly dream when i was turning fifteen, hihi

This is so cute! 😄 And it sparks a memory from my own childhood as well! I remember there used to be an area of the forest my friends and I would go to, and we would pretend to be witches 😂

Thank you for sharing this, and good luck! 👍

thanks you so much for your support, you had an awesome childhood memory too

What a delightful read. You have us giggling, merrily along as you recount one charming detail after another about your antics. Your desire to train as a superhero while you had the innocence of youthful naivety on your side is something most people can relate to with heartwarming nostalgia. The cuteness-factor, here, is on overload. Enchanting!

thanks for your compliment, all of us certainly have a amazing childhood memory and experience and when we think it deeply, we drive into heartwarming nostalgia

I also wanted to have super powers, nice story.

thanks pal, we all do

I was reading and expecting to come to the point you guys acquired the power...so that I'd know if things like that are real or fake because I've heard and seen movies like that.

You guys would have tried to the end point🙄

well, we never finish it though, who knows if we completely finish our training, we can obtain some 😄

A well-told story. I think every child has that spot where they go to act like some demigod. Some of those characters were what we watched on screen in heard in folktales we were told.

Nice !

thanks a lot, what a memory

When I was a kid, I also fantasized about having super powers. It was a very beautiful time where imagination had no limits and we thought that life would be an adventure like in the movies.
Many memories came to my mind reading your story.
Thanks for sharing.
Good day.

that's very kind of you, thanks.

You all had a wild imagination when you were kids. I think every kid has this fantasy that they want to have a superpower.
Very interesting read, thanks for sharing ❤️

you're welcome, thanks back for reading my story

I waited anxiously to get to the part where y'all performed your first magic😂😂
A very nice read.

haha, you know, it'll never happen, it's just happen in our imagination
