Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The strongest

He crashed through the ground, passing all the houses at the speed of light. Although people recognized his face the second he came to a stop, it was Makoto Kirisaki, the strongest human being on earth. lightning began to burst out of Makoto's chest and rushed into mine. I fell onto the ground and passed out suddenly. Where I woke up, it was dark and ominous. Where was I? It looked to be some temple, maybe a castle. I snapped my head to the right to find 3 dark silhouettes, each sitting on what I could finally make out to be thrones. They were rulers, rulers of what? This wasn't Earth; this couldn't be Earth. I never felt an aura that scales this high; the fiercest I have felt is Makoto's. That's right, when I passed out lighining from Makoto started to rush through my body. I wonder what that was. "Pika, have we finally found you?" "Who are you 3 and who the HELL is Pika?" I say, "You have the wrong guy." "Do you have lightning powers, per chance?" "I actually do think so. Do you need them? I will do anything if you let me go." "Begging us for mercy, you're being funny, Pika, so tell me, truly, how did you get these weak?" "I am NOT weak. I have the powers of the strongest human being on earth," I say. "Human being, you say, have you lost your mind?" the 3 all agree in unison. Out of the corner of my eye i see lightning energy in the shape of a human. He channels raging energy into his fist and punches from 20 feet away. The last thing I see is only lightning everywhere, and then again, I pass out. While I am still passed out in complete darkness, I see the words, "Do you wish to keep this power? If you do, you will be hunted by the 3 most dangerous creatures in the universe and die. Or if you don't keep the powers, the lightning circulating through your body right now will kill you in a matter of minutes." "Yes or No." I reach my hand out in a dark, endless pit and select yes. I wake up in a hospital with Makoto Kirisaki sitting in a suit next to the hospital bed, his hair changed, it is no longer white, but it's black and spiky, still having faints of dark and light blue. "What do you know?" "Me," I say, "is this about your powers, why a celebrity like you is waiting for a person like me to awake?" "I am sorry I stole them. But one question, wouldn't you have had to die to transfer your powers?" He looks down to the ground, his hair falling on his face, and raises his forearm displaying a dark lightning orb. His hair turns white again. "so its not gone," I say, "how?" "To be honest, I dont really know," Makoto says, " my only guess is you got the regenerative core of the power, and somehow I still got stuck with some remains myself. This must have happened when I died and came back to life, and the power transfer stopped before it was done," he says, unsure of his answer. "So I am the one with it for life," I say. " That is true." "How are you so sure you can trust me, Kano?" "Because you were the #1 hero." "you dont think twice about how I left the hero organization to become an emperor, even if it meant killing others." I stay silent. Unsure of how to respond. "your pretty confused aren't you," he says. " well yes I was a normal teenager 1 day ago and now Im the strongest in the world. Makoto laughs at me. "You said 2 things in that statement very far from the truth." "Number 1, you have been in rest for 48 days." I gasp, but quickly he moves on to number 2. "Number 2, I say this without rude intent, but you are nowhere near the strongest in the world; that spot is still fulfilled by me. "Then who defeated you that day our powers switched?"
