I hope whoever read it liked my first chapter, I'm gonna try to put out as many chapters out as fast as possible but I am in college so some weeks may be a little slow.
Once again, I own only that which I have created.

Chapter 2:I Feel Blessed (Update)
Winn couldn't believe he had discovered his ability so quickly, before he knew it he was up on his feet, just as the driver was opening his car door Winn had already took off running across the street into the crowd of people running faster than he ever had before.
He could've sworn he had heard someone shout out towards him in concern, probably the driver of the car, but at the moment he really couldn't give a damn. As quickly as he could he rushed through the crowd of civilians before stopping next to an abandoned alleyway and walking inside.
Where he proceeded to dance and celebrate as if it was his birthday, Christmas and the McRib had been brought back all on the same day.
"FUCK YEAH!" Before he knew what he was doing he had already let his excitement out in the form of a shout. Quickly covering up and looking around he was relieved to find no one was nearby.
Which was extremely convenient since he was about to test out his powers in the alley.
Stacking a few empty food cans up and walking back about five feet he tried to remember how he had used ability before. Closing his eyes he remembered the experience.
The feeling of the power spreading throughout his being without any apparent source.
As well as the way it flowed through every single cell.
Taking control of the flow he began directing towards his arms.
Cupping his hands together he watched in amazement as a sphere of barely visible air coalesced in his hand.
Looking towards the stacked cans Winn brought his hands next to himself before thrusting them towards his target.
With a whoosh his attacked flew forward and struck the stack burst and sending them flying,
With a huge grin on his face Winn fist bumped the air before restacking another pile to start repeated this same process a few more times to get a hang of it and to determine how long it took.
It took him about 10 seconds to form and fire his attack, he'd definitely have to work on that. Deciding that he had done enough testing for now he discreetly made his way out of the alleyway.
After walking down the street for a minute he passed by a newsstand, quickly backpedaling Winn stopped to grab the latest article of Catco Magazine.
"Hey buddy, this ain't a library you gonna buy that?" Looking towards the heavy set store owner he pulled out his wallet to pay for the magazine when it was snatched from his hand.
"Hey!" Dropping the magazine Winn took off to catch the short hooded culprit. If anyone had been watching them it would've looked like two track stars had taken to racing on the streets.
Though the thief had gotten a head start Winn quickly closed the distance, he was almost on top of him until his target took a sharp turn into an alley. Skidding to a stop, Winn quickly followed into the alley, as the thief believed they'd escaped they slowed down allowing Winn to grab the back of their hood and pulled causing them to fall to the ground.
"How about I get my wallet back and we both go our separate ways?" Standing above the wallet snatcher Winn finally got a look at them without their hood on them.
"The fuck?"
He had known that he would encounter aliens on his journey but definitely not the first day. Looking him in the face was a green scaled yellow eyed lizard.
He was so astonished by the sight he was caught unaware by the slithering tail that had found itself wrapped around his ankle until he was pulled to the ground as well.
Falling with a thud he watched as the reptilian robber jumped up and emptied his wallet of all his cash, "Thanks for the money pal." The thief sneered in a notably male and juvenile voice.
Turning away he ran towards one of the adjacent walls and climbed it all the way to the top.
Laying his head down defeated, Winn continued to look up at the sky for a few minutes before he stood up and walked over to pick up his-now empty-wallet.
Opening it up he found that only his actual money was gone and everything else was still left.
Walking out of the alley slightly dejected he took his phone out of his pocket to check the messages he had received from Kara.
Kara, 4 Messages
"Aw shit." He muttered contemplating for a second he decided to bite the bullet and open them.
Hey Winn are you ok? I didn't see you this morning.
That one was from about 9:00 am, he absentmindedly noted that was when he was supposed to come in for work.
Winn are you still coming to work today I'm getting a little worried, if this is about the new IT guy don't worry.
New IT guy? Well the video did say something about problems at work, alright on to the next one.
Can you please call me Winn I'm getting scared.
Aww crap now she feels bad.
Alright that's it Winn I'm about to leave work, I'll be there in a minute, if you get this please call me!
That last text was 5 minutes, so if he wanted to catch Kara he had to do it before she left the building.
"Legs don't fail me now!" He quickly muttered before rushing in the direction he knew the Catco building was in.

Catco. WorldWide Media
Kara was really worried right about now, Winn Schott Jr. had never, and she meant never missed work in the two years they'd known each other.
She had been trying to get in touch with him for the last five hours but there was no response and she couldn't tell Cat that one of her employees hadn't shown up to work for multiple reasons.
The most important two being that she doesn't know who he is and telling her would probably get Winn fired.
Although with everything that had been going on in his life she didn't blame him.
First, Cat had hired a new IT crew member, and she would be lying if she said she didn't find him attractive, but that wouldn't affect Winn's mood at all.
Would it?
Then there was also the fact that his dad was being transferred to a mental facility, so there was a possibility that he could get out in the future, walking on the street like a regular person.
And that terrified Winn to no end. He had confided in her for hours about how his father should never be able to set foot outside. Ever.
But the reason she thinks hit Winn the hardest by far was his mother's death. It wasn't a murder, at least that's what was determined by the police, someone had broken into her house and apparently when she tried to hide she was found and shot.
It was a heavy burden and it visibly showed in his figure wherever he was.
As the elevator door opened Kara tried to make it in as quick as possible but ended up bumping into the man who had been exiting it at the time. She also ended up dropping the papers she had been holding in the process.
"Oh my god I am so sorry!" seeing the man kneel to help her she began panicking "oh no no, I've got this." Looking up to face the man she was met with the face of the man who she was just about to meet with.
"Winn?"

After helping her collect herself Winn walked Kara back to her desk, while carefully avoiding the barrage of questions that he was met with about his disappearance.
"Kara."
"Where have you been?!"
"Kara?"
"If you were ok you should've let me know!"
"Kara!" Placing his hands on her shoulders he turned to look her in the face. "Listen, I am just fine, I… I just needed some time by myself." He ended his sentence speaking quietly to mimic grief.
He had all of the former Winn's memories, but the blow of his mother's death was severely blunted by the fact that he had never experienced it.
"Kerrah! Where are yo- oh, nevermind I can see your busy." Somehow they had decided to have this moment right outside of Cat Grants office, however with them staring into each other's eyes with Winn hands on her could easily be misconstrued by anyone watching.
The 'anyone' in this situation being their boss, Cat Grant.
"Well I'll be honest Kerrah I didn't think you had it in you, now where did you get such a strapping young man, I may have to get one for myself." Cat said sauntering up to them.
Taking his hands off of Kara turning towards his boss, Winn tried to correct the mistake. "Oh no Miss Grant we're not like that." He said pointing between himself and Kara.
Kara seemed to be dazed for a second before turning to face Cat as well. "Yes, that is right absolutely nothing going on." She hoped that neither would note the light blush she had on her face.
Not looking at all concerned with whatever they were, Cat presses on."Kerrah I need you back at your station, those phones won't answer themselves and I certainly don't plan on doing it." Nodding Kara began walking back to her desk as Cat faced Winn.
"Alright then who are you and why should I care." She may have sounded dismissive but that was probably because she was already walking back to office as she asked the question. Hurrying behind her he began his explanation. "Uh my name is Winn Schott and I work in the IT department."
Sitting down in her chair and glancing condescendingly at her watch she spoke to him, "Well, Winn from IT can you please why you showed up to work five hours late and why I shouldn't have security very roughly escort you out of the building."
"I was in mourning for a little while." Suddenly looking a little less dismissive she gave him a glance before returning to her work, "What happened, did you have to flush a dead goldfish?"
Not missing a beat he responded "Uh no, my mother was murdered a couple days ago." The way he said it may have sounded a bit nonchalant seeing as how Cat was so caught off guard by his answer that she stopped writing and gave him her full attention.
"I see, I'm sorry to hear that." Oddly enough she sounded actually genuine in her apology, "Although I'm curious about one thing, why would you come into work only a few days after such a horrible incident, most people would be curled up in their rooms bawling like babies."
At the question Winn had to contemplate his answer for a minute before answering " With everything that's going on in my life right now, I just wanted to keep at least one constant in my life."
Nodding to herself she began waving him away "Well if that's all then you can go get back to work."
"Ah there's that old Cat Grant charm." He muttered as he made his way back to his desk. Sitting down at his desk he began typing away at his computer his main job as part of the IT department was to create the software for all of CostCo's media outlets and repair them when needed, in this department Winn has reigned supreme until Cat had hired a new employee.
Hearing a bubbly giggle he turned to see Kara chatting with the prodigal asshole himself.
Keith.
To all the women that he met he was a perfect scion of chivalry and according to most of the guys in the building he was a good dude , however anyone that could see through that facade would see that he is a manipulative two faced son of a bitch.
Ok, maybe old Winn's feelings are you rising up a little.
Looking away from the two Winn went back to work, he noticed that even though he only had Winn's memories of coding and computer know how, he was comprehending and processing all of it at more than thrice the rate Past Winn ever could.
Now that he thought about it his mental faculties were all showing extreme efficiency, before he knew it his work for the day was done after a mere 30 minutes. He had gotten smart, like scary smart.
Little did Winn know this was not the first instance of his increased intelligence nor would it be the last.
Then in his mind echoed a familiar voice.
Congratulations , I see you've had an interesting day so far, discovering two of your blessings in less than six hours, truly astonishing.
Anywho let's get on to the second blessing, Freedom.
Now the meaning may be confusing so I'll have to give you a short history lesson. When I first created the human race I made a mistake with your souls and bodies, your species had no limitations on its mental or physical abilities, at the time I believed that if they continued as is it would lead to the eventual extinction of your race.
Therefore I imposed a lock on the souls of the first generation of humans and ingrained it into your DNA. Haven't you ever wondered why certain people can comprehend things at a much faster rate or how some individuals start out the same way physically and do all the same activities yet one ends up physically superior to the other?
That is due to the divergence of a people's DNA and the effect of the seal on their genes.
I have taken the liberty to remove that lock from you, now you and anyone who has your blood running through their veins shall be untethered by the mortal coil.
Enjoy Winslow.
Well guess that settles that. Definitely something to look into later though, he'd need to do some tests and catalogue all the benefits of his new dna but that could wait for later.
Looking at his computer he contemplated, "Well as long as I have the time, might as well finish work for the week." He quietly said as he began typing even more rapidly than before.

Underground DEO HeadQuarters
Inside the secret home for extra normal agents there was the normal hustle and bustle of the building. The only thing that seemed out of place was the footage that was playing on the security monitor of Winn's thief chase through the streets.
In front of the screen stood DEO director Hank Henshaw or at least someone that looked like him , next to him was agent Alex the control desk sat Agent Vasquez.
"Vasquez, would you mind explaining what we're watching." Henshaw said gruffly
"It's exactly as it looks sir, a civilian had his wallet stolen by what looks like a Psion and began to chase him down for three blocks, almost caught him too."
"Are we sure that it was a human being, maybe it was a humanoid." Alex inquired to her fellow agent.
Vasquez enhanced the video onto the civilian as closely as possible but it was too blurry to make out his face. "We were able to determine that the subject is male with black hair but we aren't able to make out any facial features so we've been unable to determine his species."
Grunting, Henshaw addressed her,"Well be sure to keep an eye on it and let me know if anything pops up."
Nodding an affirmative Vasquez turned back to her work. "Yes sir."
