"Hi," began the receptionist, "What can I help you with?"
"I'm just looking around, thank you though." His two extra arms were hidden beneath his shirt. He walked over to the nearest cat, knowing them to be trustworthy.
"I need some information about a human that I saw on the news. Who do I need to speak with?"
"Try going to the news station and talking with them," answered the receptionist, not understanding that Andy was talking to the cat.
"There's a certain cat, well, kind of, that could give you info on anybody, human or animal," replied the cat, "This cat asks tons of animals from all around about information; it would be equivalent to one of your human 'wise men'. This cat resides in a place called Mid Cave, finding it to be acceptable. Go there, and you will get what you need. The only thing is, only wild animals know where Mid Cave is."
"Thanks," spoke Andy and quickly left to go find a wild animal.

"You see," began Jeremiah Midas to Zac, "Andy Martin has taken on a new life as The Liberator. With the power to traverse space and time like it is nothing, there's really not too many limits on what he can do. He started by gaining the ability to teleport across vast distances, although few people really know how. And time and space are brothers, when one is traversed, it isn't long until the other platuea is conquered as well. I know it sounds strange, but he has his own ideals. Sometimes he goes to places, and liberates, and brings peace and prosperity, while other times he wreaks havoc, and kills random innocents. As far as I know, Zane and I have been the only people to oppose is seeminly owned power trip. He knows this, and that's why we're here: it seems to be the one place he can't teleport to. He trapped my friend here in this body, and then in that boat, where you found him. With your added insight, we might be able to finally bring an end to The Liberator's vicious reign of unopposed randomness." Zac was conflicted: Andy had always been a good friend, and this certainly did not sound like the Andy Martin he knew.
"Prove this all," was Zac's only reply.
"Prove this all," was Zac's only reply.

Shannon ran outside where she was being held, to find herself in a desert. There was nothing for she didn't know how far, and no way in sight of reaching anybody. She has seen someone run past her, that she was now able to see was...Amanda Gage? Shannon had no idea how Amanda could run so fast, or how she got there, but then again, she didn't know how she herself was there.
"Hey! Amanda, wait." Shannon found that she could also fun quite fast because of the much increased strength in her leg muscles. But, Amanda was still losing her, and quickly, as Shannon could not keep up with her speed. Shannon was thirsty, but she was in a desert. She quickly looked around and could somehow tell which plants would give her water, and she ran to the nearest one. Before she could reach it, on one step she heard a click. She looked down to see herself standing on a landmine.
"AMANDA!!" she called, but Amanda was already gone.

Brady had been sitting, waiting patiently for Dr. Moriarty to wake up. After about an hour, he did.
"Alright," started Brady, "I want to know what the hell is going on, and I want to know now."
"Alright," replied the doctor, "I guess for saving my life, you are entitled to it. I used to be a normal doctor, I had patients and such, nothing out of the ordinary. Until one day, I was taken, forcefully from my home, and forced to ingest a mysterious serum. This serum allowed me to do great things, but it quickly wore off, after about only a week. That's when the people that had forced me to drink it contacted me. They wanted to run some tests, find out why it had worn off of me, but not from that creature that you just saw, he used to be human too. It was three people who contacted me, the creature you just saw, a young man, who did all the talking, and another individual, who never showed his face. My specialty was genetics, and they offered to spare me from the tests that they had planned to put me through, if I could develop an effective serum, or some method at all, for making people, like you, special. No doubt that he'll be here soon now."
"Who?" questioned Brady.
"Him." Brady turned around to see Andy Martin, the one with only two arms. He grabbed Brady and the doctor, and in the next instant nobody was there.
"Alright," started Brady, "I want to know what the hell is going on, and I want to know now."

Andy had set out to find a wild animal. 'Where do you find one in Glendora?' he thought to himself. He bumped into someone, and turned around to say sorry. He then realized that this person was Courtney, but she had a hood covering her face, and she looked rather despondent.
"Courtney, are you ok? I saw the news. Please, I can help you sort things out."
"Andy, just leave. I am going to make them pay now. All of them." He saw something dripping off of her, and the drips destroyed whatever they touched. Then all of a sudden, without ever looking up, a ring of the street below her melted, and she fell through, with Andy looking on.
