And Now What?

It was a cheerful morning for everyone in the Galactic Plaza. Everyone except for Dave. You see Dave was off to a pretty bad start. He woke up to find his room in a complete mess from last night's party. He then went over to the Kitchen to brew himself some coffee, when he stubbed his toe to the kitchen counter. Hopping on one leg he fell on the vegetable storage, crushing all the potatoes and onions in the vegetable sack. He got up to get himself some coffee to set his mood right when he found out, yeah you guessed it, he had ran out of both milk and coffee beans. His frustration knew no bounds.Not knowing what to do as the day was already ruined, he thought of washing up and going to college. As said he got ready, took his backpack and off he was. As he was going to his bus stop he saw his bus was already leaving. " Great another way to ruin the day!" He said. Finally, huffing, he reached college only to find that all lectures were cancelled for the day. He grunted to himself, "All because of that fucking party, Had I not conducted it, there would not have been the mess, I would not have stubbed my toe, I would have got up early and at least would have reached the bus on time instead of running at 8 am to college." He returned home even after being insisted repeatedly by his friends to stay. They said they could hang around the corridors and have some fun. He was just not in the mood for it. Oh! how grateful would he be when he gets to know it was the right decision. He entered his room and decided to waste himself some more time on the bed, but before he could do so, He heard a creak in the attic. Afraid, he went to check on it.He went there as swiftly as he could but could not find anything in the attic . Relieved yet confused he came back to his room, and guess what? When he entered the room he saw a man ! Flabbergasted he asked "Who are you ? And What the hell are you doing here ?" The man replied hurriedly, "Listen, I don't have much time, I am from the future. I am here to warn you because you are the only one who can save the world. Your DNA contains the exact strain needed for the cure." Dave stuttered, "Cure? What cure? Who are you? Get out of my room! You Bald Lunatic!" The man replied, "Hey don't call me Bald. It hurts me, Lunatic is fine. Anyways, I am Gilderoy Lockhart. I broke from the Quantum Matrix to travel here and find you. Using Planck's Quantum detector, we found a match to the DNA and structure needed for the cure. It's in you. You alone can save the world, So Run from here my boy! Run as far as you can. A havoc is going to break out, something never seen before to mankind. If you somehow make it out. Meet me at this location after 3 months. I will wait for you in the future. And don't forget to visit the weaponry for some gear. You would need it. Now RUN!!." The man disappeared. Dave was still figuring what on earth this so called Gilderoy Lockhart from something called Quantum Matrix had just said and how on hell was he the person needed to save earth when everyone was living peacefully. BUT little did he know the storm was not very far, the disaster had begun. When he went down to go the super market to get his coffee and milk, he saw that people were turning into monsters. They had attained super strength and were damaging anything that came their way. Now, he was surely the bald lunatic existed and there was a havoc. He ran as fast as he could knowing very well he had to stay in shelter for 3 months. He ran to his home and started collecting his stuff. He thought of going to the weaponry first as the Gildlock Royhart had said. Wait what was his name again? Well it didn't matter to him. But as he was about to leave he saw a metal badge glowing with a tint of blue on his bedroom floor. He picked it up. There was a note. "Priced possession of Quantum Warrior, Gilderoy The Second". It had some sort of hook on it as if it were meant to attach on something. He tried pressing many buttons but in vain. At last, defeated he kept it in his shirt pocket. The badge beeped. "Initiating security protocols, Matching body to Armor synthesis, Modifying weapons to body fittings. Build: Weak" The machine instructed. Dave growled, " Hey I know that I am not that ripped but no need for you to call me weak you get it?" The machine spoke again, "Asking for permission to suit up the user". Dave surprised, "Asking for what?". The machine beeped, "Permission granted". Dave's body was turning into a mech. His arms covered in metal gauntlets. His chest getting a blue arc reactor. His abdomen getting covered in high grade titanium. His shoulder getting coated with retractable missile launcher. His backpack turned into a jetpack and boots turned into jet boots. His head protected under a NOVA helmet with a robot giving him access to all the different functions of the suit. "Damn, This is Amazing" "So now I have to go to the weaponry for more weapons right?". "You are right, Sir. I am Alexis, your suit partner" The robot spoke. Dave said, "Well I got a suit partner before a life partner, This is some real shit. But hey at least I have a partner." Dave headed out of the room onto the streets to the weaponry. On the way he saw many Demons. They started pouncing on him. But Dave, effortlessly used lasers and missiles to destroy them. "Take this! HAHA! Take this and this! Oh my! I could do this all day!" Growled Dave. But attributed to his bad luck, there were 5 Kamikaze Monsters, size as big as a building, Heading slowly towards him. "I can take care of the first 2 of them I guess" said Dave. But in vain did he attempt to hit them as he was flicked away effortlessly. In pain, he spoke to himself,"Ok plan B, Run." He started running away. As he got to a safe spot, he sat down and sobbed to himself, "I wanted to save humanity, but I cant even save myself. I am almost dead. And Now What?"
