Finn was walking down the sidewalk, trying to escape his empty house. "This can't be it, you are holding out on me, man." "No, no, I'm not, please, I gave you everything I had." Finn looks in the alley as guy is getting robbed. "Hey, asshole, why don't you go steal someone else's money like not a homeless person's jackass" Finn says as it is clear due to the man dirty clothes and cardboard box on the ground. The robber turns around and points their gun at him, " Wow, hold on now, you wouldn't kill a kid, come on think about it, let's just relax and take a dee-". The robber shoots at Finn as that happens, Finn closes his eyes, waiting for the pain. As he opens them, he gets shocked as everything around him is slowing down, he looks at the bullet coming at him, and flicks it. The bullet goes past the robber straight into the wall. The robber looks behind him at the hole in the wall from the bullet he falls and his ass and runs. Finn helps the guy who was getting robbed up, " You ok?" Finn asks. "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine thank you." " Yeah man, I got to go, " Finn says as the homeless man picks up his stuff that was messed up. Finn pulls 10$ out of his wallet, and puts it in the man's can. "Hope this can help." Finn walks away. The guy goes back to sitting down by the wall and smiles as he remembers what Finn did for him. he laughs, " I guess there are still some good people in the world." he smiles. Finn walks down the street as he thinks over what happened, "What was that?" Finn feels inside him as he walks. Finn tries to do what he did again, but it doesn't work. Just then, a car goes out of control and goes towards him. Finn looks at it, scared, and everything slows down as he uses his power. He looks around, moves out of the way of the car, and while he does that, he takes the driver out too. He tries to feel the feeling he felt when he uses his ability; he feels the connection and uses the energy. He smiles as he slows down time and speeds off.
