When Kristi looked around the computer lab, she spotted a quiet young boy, sitting all by himself in the corner, playing video games on a computer. She got up and walked up to him and sat down in the chair next to him. The boy was immediately startled when she sat down.
"Hey! Don't be scared! I'm not here to hurt you! I'm Kristi. What's your name?" she asked him.
The boy was about six years old, he had long, straight brown hair and blue eyes.
"Etan. My name is Etan." he said.
Kristi immediately sensed that something was wrong. The boy had been frightened earlier that morning. She sensed that he had a scary experience that day and she wanted to make him feel at ease.
"I'm here to help, Etan. How did you get that scar on your neck?" Kristi asked him.
"Today was the first day that my mom and dad let me walk to the bus stop by myself. Well, on the way over, some guy walked up to me and offered me a soda, and then he started to put a rope around my neck and strangle me but I got away!" the boy explained.
"That is horrible! Well, I hope that never happens to you, or anyone else!" Kristi said.
While Etan continued to play the video game, Kristi decided to use her powers on the boy, but in a way so that he wouldn't notice, or anyone else. She made Etan's thighs and calves bulge with muscle, making the young boy look like a young gymnast in a way. Then, she widened his shoulders and she grew his pectorals and his biceps. Etan was clearly much bigger and stronger now. Etan now had defined abdominal muscles as well, and he had broader shoulders. Nobody would EVER bully or hurt the boy anymore, certainly not now that he was much stronger, thanks to Kristi's powers.
"Well, you take care of yourself, okay, Etan?"
"I will. Thanks!" the boy said, now looking like a young athlete.
Kristi got up and sat somewhere else, although she still looked over and kept an eye on Etan from time to time...
(Dedicated to the loving memory of Etan Patz, who was brutally killed 33 years ago today, May 25, 1979, in New York, at the age of 6).
