"What am I to do with you?!". He questioned, staring down at the boy lying on the mattress with a sweaty and shaky body.

The man called Mister Ripper did not know what to make of this.

He had given him the whole week off. If possibly the month, but it was not of Raul's nature to take such extended vacation.

What a surprise he was put in when he closed the shop at about eight in the evening and was about to resume to his house.

That was when from afar he saw someone all dressed in black with a hoodie covering his face. That person was limping weakly toward him and eventually passed out just before he got to him!

Curious and with caution, Mister Ripper moved closer to the collapsed figure. He took off the hoodie and saw that it was Raul!

He had passed out and never before had Mister Ripper seen Raul in such a miserable state!

His body was shivering and when Mister Ripper attempted to feel him up close, he instinctively shifted back.

Raul's body was burning!! It was unlike any heat Mister Ripper had ever come across in his entire life.

He had to wait for him to cool down, all the while pondering what could have happened to make him into this!!

A thirty-minute wait did nothing to change his condition. Eventually, Mister Ripper was forced to improvise on ways to transport his body from outdoors to his apartment.

It wasn't easy but also not an unachievable feat for Mister Ripper who has lived through to see a lot of awful shit!

He somehow found a way to move Raul's unstable body to his apartment.

From there, Mister Ripper alone started treating him. On second thought, maybe just laying down his body and constantly wiping his forehead with a towel shouldn't be considered treating.

Nonetheless, Mister Ripper did the best he could for him. He also took him to the hospital to have a checkup conducted, but he was told after the checkup that there was nothing wrong with him.

Why? Because their charts show that there is absolutely nothing wrong with him.

It was concluded that his body was in the best condition they had ever come across in any human.

Unwilling to believe, Mister Ripper tried his luck in another hospital. The same diagnosis was what he was met with.

An overly perfect body

Even though the doctors had checked for themselves what his body's temperature was and how he was not waking up, their conclusion was drawn back to him being okay.

After that, he visited a lot of hospitals yet the result did not once change.

Eventually, Mister Ripper decided to give in as he took Raul back to his house for an in-house treatment.

As it was stated, all Mister Ripper does is wipe off the sweat that had accumulated on his forehead with a towel.

He spoon-fed him and constantly wiped away the sweat dripping down his body.

^ This is Just In! Three days have passed since the phenomenal incident that happened on the express road of Ojota ^

The sound of the television behind him suddenly increased in volume, displaying the scene of a woman roughly in her early thirties sitting and holding a sheet as she narrated the latest news.

^ About three days ago, a convict public transport was hijacked by a man in all black covering his face with a hoodie and a face mask ^

^ What came as a surprise to the nation's citizens worldwide is not about the hijack. Rather, it is about the actions displayed by the hijacker ^

^ A scene that was footage during the incident will be displayed for all to see ^

^ Be warned that what you are about to witness is live footage and as my sources have confirmed, it is not a tampered video under the influence of edition and special effects ^

When she was done explaining, the scene displayed on the TV changed from portraying a woman to showing an express road with a bus on the move.

It captured the moment when Raul jumped down from the pedestal bridge and landed directly at the top of the bus.

The scene truly was hard to believe since there was at least a seventeen-foot distance from the bridge to the ground.

Though a part of that distance is covered by the bus's height, it still is not to be taken so lightly.

What happened next shocked a majority as it put even the jump to shame.

It was displayed, how Raul easily ripped away a part of the bus like it was nothing.

The logic behind the jump can be explained as the individual being a parkour expert who knows how well to land on their feet without causing injury to their body.

But about the other one? The insane superhuman strength exerted that allowed him to rip away a part of the bus?

That is a scene that many refuse to come to terms with, and many had doubts in their minds even though they had already been told of its realism by the newscaster.

Before the scene deviated, it showed a writing indicating a warning that what they are about to see can turn out to be?... Traumatic.

The warning was put there for a while before eventually going to the scene itself.

It showed Raul holding down his aunt's husband by the neck, and also the gruesome scene of Raul gripping his hold as it strangled the neck and eventually detached it from the body.

Blood gushed out and drizzled down the body of the dead man.

^ Those are the eye-catching events displayed at the scene of the incident, leaving many to wonder if truly this is real, or yet a prank from a major online prankster ^

Said the woman who had taken back control of the TV display.

^ Amidst the ongoing commotion, many are wondering what should be done if what they had just witnessed is as real as it gets ^

She continued talking, making up assumptions and speculations about the scene.

Mister Ripper deviated his face from the TV and turned it toward the laid-down Raul.

He gazed at him with a conflicted expression, blatantly obvious on his face.

"Kid! What have you gotten yourself into?!". He retorted, not expecting a reply.
