A quick beep sounded from Mike's car as he pressed the lock button on his car key twice. He was now seated on a bench right by the parking lot of McRae Hall, his dorm. All he was doing was taking a quick breather. So much had happened and he was only halfway through his day. The hangover, the car explosion, the throbbing headache, accepting that he has superpowers, being way too high, having a good time with the girl across the hall, Astrid melting away, and...

_"I wish someone would just be happy about me going away to do something for myself."_ The thoughts of a female echoed as she passed by Mike. He looked up at her upset face.

_"Tonight's my chance to talk to Kelly Falcon! If not, I'm getting one of the other sorority girls."_ A guys thoughts were heard this time.

_"Cute shoes!"_

_"College sucks..."_

_"What's your name sweetheart?"_

_"And here we go!"_

_"Oops!"_

_"Ew!"_

_"What a bitch."_

Mike raised an eyebrow at all the thoughts flying in out of nowhere. He figured all the noise traffic would make him want to hold his head in pain and cry, but it was no different from being at a sporting event. Some thoughts were just louder than others. _Maybe the stronger and closer thoughts are louder._ Mike thought to himself before setting his eyes on a guy walking by. He strolled past Mike with thoughts of what he would do tonight. _Sorry buddy..._ Mike thought before reaching out towards the back of the guy's leg before snatching at it which caused the guy's leg to pull back. Mike's eyes widened as the guy tripped and stumbled across the sidewalk and look back. 

"What the fuck?" The guy questioned before walking away. Mike chuckled to himself. He had gotten a pretty cool gift. He kept his smile up as he tapped his hand on his lap, making an ant crush under invisible force. He narrowed his eyes. _If only I had fhis when I was deployed in Afghanistan._ Mike finally stood up from the bench and walked over to the dorm entrance. It was time to share with Floyd, but something interesting caught his eye in the parking lot.
