I'm Energy In DC

Midvale........

Two people stood near the end of the road. The smashed cars around them made their posture look particularly eye-catching.

One was a human male...... Well, looked like a human male. The other was once a human male but now, looked like something completely inhuman.

Parasite Lunged towards me with all the strength he could muster in a pointless attack.

His body stiffened however, when his claws was five centimeters away from my head.

The freeze was brief, taking no longer than a second. However, a long time had passed for both parties within this very short second.

Parasite's vision returned for a split second before an intense fatigue flooded his mind. The level of mental exhaustion caused his already weakening body to fail completely, causing the monster to plummet to the floor unconscious.

I took a quick look at the monster that laid at my feet with a look of contemplation in his eyes.

"Well well, these eyes truly have evolved". Myvoice was naturally smooth with a hint of pondering.

One year!

Unlike my previous abilities that could manipulate the mental space and stretch time for roughly three days, the newly evolved version took it to the extreme.

For one year, Rudy had suffered so much torture as I experimented with my abilities that his mind would literally never be the same again.

This, was in no way an exaggeration. What Batman experienced could still be repaired with the right people and powers.

As for this, I wasn't sure if it could be repaired by Doctor Fate and a group of magicians utilising magic to the best of their abilities.

"Oh...... And that's new". Something else caught my attention as well.

Voices.......... Thousands of them coming from all directions.

Men, women, children.......

Amari could hear them. However, this wasn't through the use of his ears.

"Oh My God!"

" Shit, gotta hurry and call 911, there's....."

"Damn it! Are those supers fighting again? But this ain't Metropolis".

The thoughts of numerous people playing out simultaneously in his mind were honestly astounding.

Some were cursing, some were screaming, some were doing both.

"Another shitty day in this shitty world". The thoughts of a beggar literally a few dozen meters away.

He held a bottle of canned soda, half empty at this point. Unlike he others, he sat where he was and simply took a chug, ignoring the people who were running past him.

Bending down slightly and taking a peep in my direction, his eyes quickly lost interest as he returned to resting his back against the wall.

"Where's death when you need it". The tone was nonchalant.

Sounds like a human who had given up on life.

"Is this........ Telepathy?"

The power to read the thoughts of others. This was the simplest definition and quite frankly, it was the simplest thing I could do at this point.

No one told me, I could feel it.

Focusing my sight on the comatose creature that was once Rudy Jones, retina lines appeared in my field of vision, before disappearing rapidly, feeding information of what I was seeing into my mind.

Like who Parasite was or what he once was, what he is now and how exactly he could do what he could do. His body composition, cell structure, current physical state, various biological flaws....... The lines were almost endless.

It was almost like an analyzer, giving me detailed information of what I wanted to know when I wanted to know it.

Or better put, an omniscient eye........ Of some kind.

Not only did my eyes scan his body but also his mind. I experienced the process of reaching deep into his brain, retrieving memories hidden deep within his hippocampus.

Memories of his nine months being a foetus, the day of his birth, the numerous times he suckled on his mother's breasts.

Memories of his early years, how many times he had bacon in his life, how he liked to play with little toy trains, how many times he had used the word "fuck" when playing with his wife in all his favorite sex positions, the nine hundred and fifty sixth word he read in the newspaper........ Many things he could remember and things he couldn't remember and was incapable of remembering even with his current capabilities.

It was intrusive, but even if he was conscious, he wouldn't be able to feel the intrusion.

I looked at the destroyed tanker and similar information appeared. It was honestly intriguing.

I could learn anything about anything.

If a regular human was suddenly loaded with so much information, their brains would have exploded in the first nanosecond.

Didn't matter to me though.

Still, this was just the beginning. The previous use of the Tsukyuomi space wasn't one year but as long as I could maintain it.

Depending on the mental strength of those I use it against, I could practically trap the opponent in a mental prison for all eternity, erode his consciousness, turn them into a mental retard with nothing but a look

Not to mention.......

With a single thought, a spoon laying under a table in an apartment twenty three blocks away from here was suddenly pulled away from its resting place.

I raised my hand to catch the spoon with a strange light in my eyes.

Telekinesis as well?

Wasn't this the road of Martians?

Or was this the Rinnegan of the Ninja World?

"It's all new. Looks like I need to take out time to test my new capabilities". I said with some thought.

"You could just will yourself to know the information you seek". The voice of Alice sounded in my ears causing me to chuckle.

"Come on Alice, where's the fun in that?" I replied with some amusement.

"You didn't improve you eyes?"

"No". I shook my head in denial.

"This wasn't my doing at all".

I felt the slight changes but made no effort to stop it. Still, this end point was a bit surprising.

"Now come to think of it, what exactly were my requirements when I willed for a perfect body?" I said out loud with my hand placed on my chin.

There was a reason I created a "perfect physique" when creating a body for myself.

In simple words, the "perfect" there simply meant completely unique. In other words, my body DNA was one of a kind throughout all universes. My cells wouldn't survive the moment they disconnected from my body surface.

They were special so the structure couldn't be replicated, reused, or copied. Simply speaking, everything I gave myself was for me and me alone.

This was also the reason why Parasite couldn't copy any of my abilities during the brief moment we made contact.

I wished for his simply because... One, I didn't want my abilities copied or used against me. Two, I didn't want to have a another version of me running around.

The DC universe cloning technology as honestly annoying. This was something I personally didn't want to experience.

Unlike Superman who was more tolerant, I would directly erase my clone out of existence if I ever found out one existed.

[This paragraphs is for readers who think I gave my MC a viltrumite physique. I haven't explained this since I wrote about it in the fifth chapter. The MC has all the physical capabilities of a viltrumite, he doesn't have viltrum DNA]

"From my calculations, your body is in a constant state of evolution. Due to the cellular qualities of your DNA, your body has caused your eyes to mutate and develop unknown characteristics".

"Unknown changes".

I murmured with a raised eyebrow.

"There are a lot of inconsistencies with that sentence".

The eyes weren't the only thing developing unknown characteristics. One was the fact that I actually involved myself just before Parasite could kill Kara.

That in itself was ........ odd.

My principles were pretty clear. I never attacked first.

Rudy didn't attack me. Well...... Not yet anyway. Still, my actions were completely off character.

I knew why and I was a little unhappy about it.

This body was developing emotions. Emotional attachment, although very minimal.

"What will you do with him?"

Alice's question brought me out of my thoughts. I turned my gaze back to the brain dead Rudy Jones.

After torturing him for a year, any thoughts of killing him I previously possessed had faded.

Well, the guy was already this miserable. Killing him just didn't nudge me anymore.

My ears picked up the rapidly approaching police sirens in the distance.

"Well........ How about we just drop him off".

.........

Star Labs, Central City.

The military sweep was basically finished and all military personnel were packing their bags to leave.

Waller in particular, had an ugly expression. Her face was cold and the gloomy feeling she gave off gave the impression that someone owed her a million bucks.

Waller knew that right now, she was really in trouble.

Right then, the space in the distance suddenly swirled.

Thud!

A body appeared out of thin and fell to the floor with a resounding thud. The body sported a pale purple color. Green lines around it looked particularly faded as well.

The once hulking body of Parasite now looked thin and shrivelled. It laid there completely unresponsive, the only sign that showed he was still alive was the rising and falling of his chest area.

Waller took several steps back will gesturing towards the soldiers and the monster.

Thirty seconds later.

"There's a note Mam". One said as he looked at Parasite's chest that had several words scribbled on his chest.

"It says, "Hope you like the present".

Waller: "....."

Looking at the Parasite Monster, Waller frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Was is it?"

"We don't know mam. Maybe some kind of alien".

Waller raised an eyebrow. The image of one person fell into her mind.

"Is it still alive?"

"Yes. But whatever it is, it's unresponsive. It also looks to be in pretty bad shape".

Amanda nodded.

"Get a containment team down there. Have it transported back to the DOD". Amanda said.

Her mind couldn't be bothered concerning whatever....... This was. Right now, she needed to return to DC and find the president.

The information she had desperately tried to conceal had been leaked. It was something even she couldn't suppress.

If she didn't do something about it, Waller would truly be finished.

However, she still didn't understand how bad things had gotten.

"That order is no longer yours to give".

A deep, stern voice suddenly sounded from behind, startling the fat lady.

Waller turned around and her eyes fell on one of the last people she wanted to see.

Tanned skin, brown hair, black eyes.

Wade looked at the fat lady in front of him with exceedingly cold eyes.

"Arrest this bitch immediately". He said towards the nearby soldiers will pointing towards Amanda.

Waller's face changed drastically.

"You can't do this. I'm the secretary of the DOD". She defended in a panicked tone

"With all that's gone online, I doubt you will be able to retain that position for long".

The tall, broad shoulders man stood firmly, placing both hands behind his back.

Seeing General Wade Eiling personally give the order, the soldiers didn't delay and cuffed Waller without question.

"This isn't over Wade. The president will hear of this".

"What all the shit that's been dug out, I doubt Lex would be able to keep you even if he wanted to". He replied indifferently, not paying attention to the secretary who was being dragged out of the Star Labs building.

"What do we do general?"

A soldier asked respectfully.

"What else? Have a containment team get down here and take this to the Labs".

Wade said, his gaze still fixed on the Parasite monster. Unlike Waller, he had received news earlier on so he knew that this thing just fought with Superman and the Mysterious Deviant a while ago and fled.

Looking at the message inscribed in Parasite's flesh, Wade had a very strange feeling in his gut. That this message was specifically meant for him to see.

"Looks like we have to get in touch".

...........

September 2nd, Washington DC

In a penthouse high rise.

The space on the balcony swirled, followed by a figure stepping into the open space out of thin air.

"I've been expecting you".

Wade said solemnly.

"You're not an easy man to get a hold of".

Hearing his words, I shrugged indifferently.

"Waller said the same thing". I swept my eyes around the place and asked casually.

"By the way, what happened to her recently. I heard the Secretary got replaced".

"She's where she belongs. Back at Belle Reve. Unfortunately, not in a cell". Hearing my time, Wade's eyelids twitched slightly.

"Since you're here, let's get down t business".

There was a brief moment of silence. Seeing that I didn't reply and just stared at him, he took it as my consent and continued.

"The agreement you had with the World Council states that you will cooperate with us when necessary".

I nodded my head without bothering to fully clarify.

"In that case, I'm here to offer you a deal".

"Waller said that as well".

I didn't show any movement. I already knew what he was going to ask for. It was enough that it was practically easy to guess.

Still, I didn't get ahead of him.

"What could that be General".

Wade rested his back against his chair.

"The serums you made decided on with Lane. That needs to be discussed. But that will be finished later. Now.......".

"I want you to inform me on where I can find General Lane. Worry not, for this piece of information, we can satisfy the price".

He said with a nonchalant tone.

"I know". The price for Lane's location wasn't high, even if I wanted to charge.

"So I suggest you start getting ready for international peace talks. Because Old Lane is being held in Bialya
