*I got a review saying that a Dare Devil/ Matt Murdock type of thing would be cool as fuck for Brick and I get that, the only reason he is adjusting right now is due to being in a new situation/school. I also don't want to plagiarize something that isn't completely my own idea... *
*I guess that this chapter will explain the entire range of his capabilities with his Blindness, and I'll add echo location with his hearing because it's cool but in my own way, not like dare devil because I want it to be a tad bit more *
Brick returned home having memorized the way in his head, the sounds he heard made it easier to get around. He hated having to readjust to this new location after spending the past 2 years in a different city that he already adjusted to living in without his cane.
He was happy that he learned to memorize them on such short notice. Even if he was blind, his hearing intensified. He was also still a very smart person like his counterpart and easily used anything to help with his situation.
Currently he was trying to test his ability of supreme echo location, like a bat or dolphin. He chuckled at the cliche of that, that was shit from the comic books that Boomer couldn't stop reading. He had told Brick about that during lunch that same day.
He wanted to see if it existed in real life, to test it he used the shower. Putting a marble underneath the water, he he focused using the sound of the water hitting off of it to create the shape in his brain.
The outline of the image was almost clear to him, he smiled and turned to see that it was raining outside. He wished that he could have found this out 2 years ago because he could see his mind waves creating shapes of everything in his head even if it wasn't clear, it was something, he could even see the expressions of people who were walking down the sidewalk.
He could have cried at that moment, maybe this was from his chemical X status as a being. He pictured himself as a dolphin using echo location and quickly stiffled his laughter before he could draw attention from his brothers. He closed his window and the thoughts of trying the echo location without the aid of water intrigued him.
He gave a small clap and focused hard, he was surprised that the sound bounced off the walls and let him see his room for just a short second before disappearing. He felt like an idiot, he lived the past 2 years like this using only memorizing things to get around when he could have used his more than superior hearing to get around.
He ran to tell his brothers using the method keeping his hands from touching the walls, to create small sounds. He even found his way down the stairs with ease. "Guys!" His excited voice caught them off guard. "What, stop running you're going to run into something!" Butch stood in front of him and to his surprise he stopped dead in front of him without crashing.
"Boomer, that comic you were talking about at lunch, that echo location shit works! If I use it I can get around without a problem!" As brick finished explaining his brothers looked at him like he was nuts. Brick lightly snapped his fingers to see their reactions "stop giving me those looks!" As he said that Butch's eyes widened.
"How many fingers am I holding up?" Boomer sounded like a little kid. "Booms... you're clearly holding up your thumb which isn't a finger..." Brick couldn't help but chuckle. " you're right..." Boomer was dumbfounded.
"Well now I can worry less... how does it work?" Butch was intrigued. "When I make taps, claps, or even just snap my fingers I can use the sound waves that bounce off and create outlines of the things that surround me in my mind... nobody at school can figure out my problem now!"
"Well... we'll see tomorrow" Butch actually smiled and Brick saw it for a split second. Boomer ran out of the room and came back from his "Brick! Would you like this clicker I got as a souvenir from sea world! They used it for the dolphins."
Brick happily took it and smiled at his brothers, maybe he could live with this after all. The only thing that he wished he could see was colours. The saturation of beautiful colours was something he missed.
He was happy all of his things were red and black otherwise getting dressed would be a bitch. He used the clicker and walked to his room. Even if he could see the outline of things now, the ruff was still blind and now he could keep it a secret until he wants it revealed.
*this is chapter 2 I'm glad people like this :) please review! Don't mind the short chapter because it is part of the beginning! They will be a LOT longer soon*
*also please remember that this is my story not a DC or Marvel comic, I put a lot of thought into all of my stories and ideas are nice, but not full plagiarization of something that already exists*
