CHAPTER 1 - The Introduction
How many stories in this world told you about Mutation or Superhero and they all already in super great power since the beginning? Quite many aren’t it?
If not since the beginning, it is just for a while, because soon or later they will gain that superpower. Maybe because they are super rich or super smart, don’t they?
After that, they will fight their nemesis, but like it or not, normal humans sometimes sacrificed because of that. They won’t cry because of one single innocent lives lost. They will continue to live, adored by many people as hope, but actually, our life never changes.
Don’t you get bored about that? It means you that just human can do nothing. Just accept your destiny to be saved by them, or sacrificed by them. It’s not their fault. It’s your fault just a human.
What about if I told you, that you also can become a hero.
The Real Hero... The Real Hope...
Now I’m going to tell you a story, that actually the highest superhero in this world am not a superpower. The one who saves us all is actually the most useless mutant with the most useless power.
I’ll tell you the story of Yulanda Urbi. A Mutant, with the power, is “don’t need to sleep”.
...............................................
Pass... pass... go to archive... go to archive... pass...
What a boring job I must do every day, be the archive manager of the mutant company. Well, this is the most appropriate job for someone like me, a person that doesn’t need to sleep. Rearrange the data; manage the archive, just a combination job between librarian and secretary. A low-class secretary of course.
“YOLANDA!” Screamed by someone of my supervisor.
“Ye... yes, Mr. Baldy, I’m coming.” I said and right away run to him.
“Have you finished all the data of yesterday mutants?” Mr. Baldy said with Englishman accent.
“Ye... yes, sir. Here are the documents; I already arrange them by their class.” I said.
“Very good. Now you can join them to the big archive. Don’t forget to classify them correctly. Input their class, their power, and their age, all correctly understand?” Mr. Baldy said.
“Yes, sir,” I said.
“Chop... chop... hurry up, Yolanda.” Mr. Baldy said while entering the old rusty steel cage type elevator.
“Yulanda sir.” I tried to fix his false pronunciation of my name.
“Oho... whatever.” He said with little voice and smirk at me and going up.
Yup, it always happens. They always call me Yolanda, rather my real name Yulanda. It’s not 100 percent of their fault. Yolanda is a more common name than mine. Why my parents give me this name? Well, I don’t know, if they still alive definitely I want to ask them too.
By the way, that was Mr. Baldy, my supervisor. He is a mutant too, like me. A human that doesn’t have normal genetic like other humans; they call them mutant, don’t they? I actually just like the normal human, I just don’t need to sleep, and that’s why I’m weird. But there’s no normal human that doesn’t need to sleep, so genetically I’m quite different, that’s why I’m a mutant.
Mr. Baldy? What is his power? He can grow and de-grow his hair in all of his body. At first, he was class-U like me too. But when his power is kind of useful when he did his spying job, now his levels up to class F. Well, I still remember that he was needed to do spying job in Russia. Because he can manage to set his own hair length right away, so he successfully disguises and made fool the officers there. But now I also don’t know why he chooses to be bald, maybe because his name is Baldy.
Well now, what must I do?
Because it’s already 13 years I work at this super big classic archive bunker under the basement of an empty warehouse, sometimes I feel blank. Or maybe because I already feel bored? I don’t know, maybe just because I’m already lack of passion working on here. But what nonsense that I’m thinking about, a woman without passion like me, how can I think about passion? *laugh. Maybe I’m just bored then.
What must I do now? Well, just again manage the archive. But wait, I think I miss something, why there is still a document at my desk? I should give this document together with the document I gave to Mr. Baldy just now. Well, I guess must go up there give this document to him. Ok then, I will go there now.
