Turning to see what scared Brett so much Jack sees something
that causes him to drop Brett and cry out. “Ahhhhhh!” His hand is on fire not
like it hurts from hitting the other boys but literal fire. Orange flames
cascade off of his fingers, yet all he feels is the curious surge of energy
from before no pain just the energy and shock.
“My fist it’s; it’s on fire! Oh my god my
hand is on fire!!! Why didn’t I feel it? How did that even happen? I still
can’t feel it am I dreaming? No, no this is real it’s definitely real. How is this happening I am not in pain but my
hand is definitely on fire….. why isn’t it warm? It’s just there, this is
really weird.” Jack marvels at his hand analyzing it, turning it back and
forth, and waving it in the air seeing if the flames will go out.
“It’s definitely not normal, I mean I have a
fire hand that’s weird but the fire isn’t even faltering when I shake my hand
to put out the flame.” Jack slowly calmed down and started to wonder about
what was happening to himself. “I need
this to stop already I have to go play the game and I can’t have these idiots
coming to, only to see my hand on fire. Then the news would spread like, well
fire. Scientists would have a field day with me.”
“Okay I need to just breathe and
figure out a plan on how to put this out. Waving it around won’t work, but
maybe if I bury it.” Jack then scooped up some of the dirt with his non-burning hand. “Tssssssht!!!” The flame spat at being stuck into the
ground. Covering it with the lose dirt he sighed thinking it was over. Smoke
arose from the ground where his hand was. He pulled his hand free to see it was
still ablaze.
