Since vyndra arrived, it can be said that Tom did not have much time to process what happened to him.

This planet was huge. Day and night were longer than the planet it came from.

Humans and other species swarmed throughout the city, it took a few months until he got used to the environment. He had to learn the rules that only apply to the gifted, he was forced to go to a center where he was taught to control his ability. Although his case was quite particular, he never noticed that he was different from that of the other children since they told him that he could only repair his guardian once he graduated from the center, he only dedicated himself to studying and training.

That person who brought him in didn't visit him much since he took him to his apartment, just told him that he would have enough to survive until he can support himself. There would be days when he would show up to ask if he needed anything in particular and would not show up again for a few weeks. I notice that he always seemed sad or melancholic...

After a few months. He was comfortable with himself, he managed to control this skill that was so troublesome a few years ago. This morning seemed particularly bright, thanks to the pride he allowed himself to feel, on his way to the training center, he inadvertently began to pay attention to the people he came across, this was something he never did since he arrived in vyndra was always focused on learning to control her ability, as it was one of her parents' commandments. His gaze took him to a family of three, the boy was one of the students at the center, he seemed happy while talking to his father about how his creature had grown after raising him for a few weeks, and he could already participate in the PVP combats of the city ... He wondered if he could ask his guardian to allow him to have one of those gadgets that allowed him to raise those creatures.

In the center, during the break, He was chatting with his companions, particularly asked about those creatures, he was filled with information about the breeding process and the fighting, he seemed interesting and became more and more interested in them, he had decided to ask your tutor to buy you the bracelet.

Tom is 10 years old since he arrived at the center, the other children noticed that he was a little distant. They knew that he lived practically alone. He was always focused on controlling his ability, he did not have many changes of clothes, he was the right weight for his age. His hair grew since he arrived and he seemed not to notice it. Today was the first time he had been interested in more than just training. This made his teammates happy with Tom, they were 4 and he was the minimum of members that a gifted team could have since he was always so straightforward, the children had trouble dealing with him, they immediately felt this change and let themselves go, this event Their relationship improved and from this day and the following weeks the training was more fun and Tom also enjoyed it.

His tutor bought him the bracelet that allowed him to start raising a beast. Without realizing it, he found something else that distracted him from the situation he avoided since he came to vyndra ...

The year was drawing to a close, although it was not exactly the time of this solar system, he learned that human beings mediate it following the 24-hour schedule of the mother star of humanity. He did not understand the reason for this custom, it seemed strange and gave him a feeling of discomfort with reality, technically in vyndra a day lasts 36 hours but human immigrants, only followed the schedule of their mother star, Although it caused some problems, ended up getting used to it.

With the end of the year also came the news that he was qualified to advance to the next level next year.

And so came the last class of the year.

- You think I will be able to enter the next rounds of fighting

- I'm not sure if your partner is strong. You still need to meet some requirements\, you can take advantage of the rest to fulfill those missions.

Mmm .. if I could do it - Tom replied quickly, after all, he wouldn't do anything until he returned to the center.

Hey, you could also take the opportunity to cut your hair a little, since you arrived it has not stopped growing, it is covering your eyes already.- said the only girl on the team.

- Yes .. it happens that my mother...

He did not finish speaking, Tom seemed to have frozen in the middle of the conversation, the girl noticed it immediately and then the other two looked up from the screen when they realized the silence, he was crying without making a noise, in the image the creature seemed to ask him What was happening, the girl approached something nervous and motioned for the other two to go find someone. They looked at him worried but left the next moment.

Are you ok? - she asks

She was squatting, he hid his head in his arms almost in a fetal position. She had never seen someone cry like that, it didn't seem like it was some whim like she used to do, and when she didn't make any sound like she was trying to hide all the pain, she felt a knot in her stomach. During an erratic movement, caused by having no idea what to do at a time like this, he awkwardly sat down next to him, reached out and hugged him.

- okay\, you're not alone ...

These words had a reaction that he did not expect, first, he trembled for a while, and then he screamed in a more depressed cry than before. While trying to contain it, the other two children arrived accompanied by one of the teachers.

- It finally exploded .. well. I'm going to take you to your apartment. go to class

- We will go with you

- No\, you can visit later. Do not worry.

As the adult said this, he moved with his hand in the air as if he was lifting something, the boys felt a sudden tingling in the body and at the same time, Tom floated towards him. She took him in her arms and went to the center.

- Will that be OK?

- I don't know\, it's the first time I've seen it like this.

- Yes\, he didn't seem to be crying because he lost a toy.

- It must have to do with his parents.

They were silent for a few moments, the three of them had the same idea, but they didn't want to say it out loud, it was something they didn't want to happen to them. They saw that the other children were heading to the center and walked towards it. Half an hour later through the window, they saw that Tom was leaving the center with the teacher who had taken him.

The teacher stayed with him for a few hours in the apartment, cooked him a very elaborate meal, and told him that if he wanted to talk to someone he could be that person. Tom looked at him with slightly unfocused eyes, nodded, but said nothing. When she left, Tom went to his desk and took ahead of a somewhat hard and even malleable light metal. It was a fairly unique alloy. It has a dog shape. His father told him that these animals were good friends of the human being when they were on the mother planet. And that in the future maybe they could bring them to life again. This memory made him feel a sudden heat that in a few moments resulted in tears. As always, he was alone in the apartment and felt more alone as he clung to his head.

"It's okay to cry, cry when you need it, don't feel ashamed for crying. But remember, don't forget that even though we're not by your side, all we want for you is to be happy. Life will always show you everything pain and injustice first, I don't expect you to understand this now. One day I am sure you will know that despite the difficulties, those moments of happiness will be the most important and those that will help to move forward, do not pretend that life owes you something or hope you deserve an award for your effort. You always remember that you should seek what you want with your own hands, even so, you should always be thankful that they help you and help when you can, you will get frustrated, you will suffer, but keep going. we want to never forget it... "

It was the last thing his mother said to him in the middle of a hug that was missing his forearms.

He fell asleep in tears and thus ended his first year in vyndra.

The break would last for 2 months. During that period, he planned to train his creature, he had not given it a name yet, but it carried the random generic name, the breeding process was quite hard, he could get sick, or hurt during training, even die, if he was not careful enough... They were virtual creatures, but from their inception to just entertain, a few hundred years ago. It can be said that right now and under the recognition of all the intelligent species of Vyndra they are considered "living" beings, after an incident that almost led all of Vyndra to a technological setback that would have been terrible for everyone, but now they are part of the society.

If I wanted I could raise more beasts to build a team and thus compete in the tournaments that are held every 6 months, but right now I only did this to have something to do and when I passed this idea through his head, he weighed that it would be more important, of the moment, train to hone your control over your ability.

After spending a few hours with his not-yet-named comrade, he decided to let him do whatever he wanted for the rest of the day, in case combat will come up and he'll need help, he'll send him an alert.

Then eating something he lay down for a moment. He still had a feeling of heaviness in his chest, after crying so much a few days ago. Since then, he often remembered his last days on that nameless planet. Back then he had the idea that they could have a better life if they traveled to Vyndra, but none of that happened ... he patted his face and stood up. He decided he was going to cut his hair.

Once outside his apartment, he activated augmented reality, immediately sought information about where there would be a hairdresser, and followed the path that appeared marked as a White line in his vision.

Since he arrived most of his time he was in the center and his room, since he would have everything necessary to live, he didn't need anything from the city, so it could be said that he was getting to know her now. She connected the breeding apparatus to her network and allowed her partner to accompany her on her journey, thanks to augmented reality she could see her next to her. This is how fighting between breeders was carried out.

He arrived at his destination an hour later, nervously entered the premises, and waited to be called.

As gifted, he had a badge that identifies him and this could be seen by everyone. So he was forced to activate augmented reality every time he left his home. He entered the network and all his steps were followed and controlled. Tom didn't notice, but there were a few nervous glances that went to him. The gifted were an important part of today's human society, they were obliged to provide military service to the colonies, they were strategic resources and some could be so powerful that they were considered weapons of mass destruction, and to the best of their knowledge, those were only the tip of the iceberg.

He spent time playing with his partner while choosing the cut to be made, then he was called, a creature approached him and invited him to follow him. He sat in the seat he indicated and a message came to him in the corner of his vision, asking if he wanted a robot or one of the employees to cut his hair. You chose to be an employee, you didn't know what this choice did because you wanted some human contact.

When the employee arrived, his eyes were closed.

- Mmm... So you just want me to cut it a little\, are you sure?

Tom replied in the affirmative shaking his head. I could feel him massaging his head as he moistened it. the woman noticed how the child seemed to fall asleep, with this action. But I don't let him do it, however, tender this fact may seem to him. Told her to stay awake, Tom stunned opened her eyes

and answered with a "yes" somewhat embarrassed.

It took about half an hour for him to finish cutting and Tom went out on the street again.

As he walked he noticed that in a plaza there were people who were fighting with his creatures, he looked at his partner and he seemed anxious, he nodded his head making him understand that he also wanted to show his strength. He approached the spot, observed some fighting, and then launched the challenge, prepared some tactics and items and I wait.

15 minutes passed and a boy of about 18 accepted his proposal.

- How do you want to fight\, do you want to bet something?

- only one round\, with no field limit. up to the k.o\, or the energy reaches 0 without betting.

- okay.

after the rules were set, the field was isolated and the other creatures disappeared from his view, at this moment he could only see his partner and the opponent, the people around him, they could see their combat if they wanted. but for that, they couldn't let their creatures in so they wouldn't get hurt by the crossfire.

The opponent's creature was anthropomorphic, 1.20 tall with a cone hat, an arm that appeared to be made of straw and wire, and holding a sickle with his right hand, appeared to be of the fighting type. Tom's partner headed towards the center when seeing her some might think of a dinosaur, he has gems in some parts of his body that accompany some pieces of armor.

The combat began with the charge of Tom's companion, the small humanoid reacted with a jump and attacking with his sickle, in the air he aimed at the head, but his sickle did not make contact because its target ducked, and with a turn, it responded by releasing a Breath of energy that impacted the falling humanoid, a small roar from the goblin was heard, Tom's partner is also quick and immediately tackled his target, which was sent away by the blow.

When a breeder launches a challenge, there is an unspoken rule that whoever accepts the challenge will be playing at a disadvantage, since it is assumed that whoever initiated the challenge is basically on their field. But that does not mean that the challenger is doomed to lose. In this case, Tom chose a terrain without limits to take advantage of the mobility and speed of his partner. Their opponent was not inexperienced, in battle the breeder cannot be heard but that does not mean that they cannot communicate with their partner. In the breeder's vision, they can see a three-dimensional map, where they can draw or indicate orders and movements for combat and it is also where they can locate their items for use. At this moment he indicated to the goblin to get some breath back while preparing a fence that will be activated the moment he starts close combat, it was risky, but he liked to bet and when he saw that his opponent did not follow him he assumed that maybe he was also recovering from energy expenditure or preparing something else, he decided to aim for the former.

It can be said that an average breeder can guess the characteristics of the opponent's creature, although this is true, it is also quite ambiguous as new species are constantly appearing and can develop unique abilities. Tom met his partner in a rather strange place. Part of the armor that grew on his body was due to the pressure and abnormal gravity that was in that place as far as he knew, his partner could be unique. This had quite shocked if he was right, this would be very good for his future growth.

His goblin closed the distance a few seconds later and immediately activated the fence, it was one with damage and paralyzing effect so if his opponent accidentally hit or touched it could lead him to victory. While this was happening the gem on his forehead his opponent's creature began to glow, the humanoid stopped before impacting as if it had frozen.

"A psychic movement," he thought. And he realized why the boy chose a field without limits. It was to make him believe that if he locked him up he could win.

- It's okay.

- Okay. Thanks for taking the challenge.

- Well\, thought later I will challenge you.

- I'll be waiting

And so, with this short conversation, the combat ended. His partner seemed unsatisfied, he did not expect the match to end like this either, so he decided to stay in the plaza to see more challenges and participate in some. He fought twice and came back, on the way he remembered a word he had heard a few years ago. His father told him that it was the name of a mythological beast from the mother planet, so after searching for variations of it he decided that his partner would be called Drako, he seemed to like the name and Tom also, so he registered it.

Two weeks later.

It was a rainy day, the technology for climate control was supposed to exist but it is only used in agricultural areas, in America, the name of the human city where it is now, is not dedicated to the mass production of food, so clearly there would be no climate control. He could put on some clothes so as not to get wet, but he decided to stay inside, he would try to improve the control of his ability.

It is assumed that the ability that the gifted use is to extend their concept of the "id" to the exterior, making everything within that area come under their control, does not mean that they can immediately manipulate all those elements that already surround them that this carries a great mental load because unlike how the human handles his body almost automatically when expanding the id to the outside, the brain suffers a great information load of things that were not in the body. It could be said that therefore now the concept and idea of the body that had the brain suddenly changes and all this load makes the user tire quickly, to bear this load the gifted must first improve their physical and mental state through A workout that may not differ much from any other sport but the gifted at all times must pay attention to every change your body makes through exercise. This training takes place practically throughout your life, as the body constantly changes. Once self-knowledge becomes part of the gifted's daily life, he can begin to focus on the things around him.

From childhood, the gifted are taught to perform these exercises, to avoid abuse of their powers and other problems, since they will be important assets for human colonies, there are also ways to improve the body at other levels, but these also depend on the endowed since to access these resources good economic sustenance is needed. But the latter is not something immediate, he does not even know what he will do in the future, so I cut this line of thought, the most important thing now is to graduate to be able to fix the same to its guardian, it had been built and programmed by his parents, he wanted to access to his memory to see them again .. there was the option of asking his tutor to take him to the place where they could extract the data more quickly, but .. he still remembered what that strange man said to him "if someday you won't see inside him, do it yourself, don't let anyone else touch it ", although he didn't understand why he made this comment, he had the feeling that it should be...

Remembering that man-made her shiver, she had this feeling that she shouldn't trust him when she met him, she seemed to act in good faith all the time, but every time she spoke, and even her body attitude generated aversion and wise despite From his young age that he did not have to get involved with him, now more than ever he felt that everything that had happened on that planet was his fault, and from what he had heard on his trip to Vyndra, it seemed to be like this... "Yes He would not have gone to that planet, I am sure they would still be alive ... "- Enough, I have to keep training.

He said out loud to reaffirm his attitude, he had to keep practicing and the only time he could use his skill was in the apartment or the training center. Only when he came of age or under certain special circumstances could he use it outdoors. He took some plastic rods that were on one side and extended his "id" to them, felt a slight tickle in his back and then the feeling that his body had two things that were not before, tom could not extend his id as towards the other gifted, as if it were a kind of area or domain where everything within it was under their control, in their case they had to directly touch the desired object to control it. While he limited himself only to the things he could touch unlike the other gifted ones it could be said that his area of action was a little wider since he was not tied to a particular domain, but it depends on his ability to move, and for this, he was increasing his resistance and explosive capacity in his training. He stared at the rods that were floating in the air, they moved and balanced according to his thinking, currently, his particular training according to his teacher at the center should focus on controlling a certain amount of elements depending on their mass and the mental load that generated, once used to these would increase either the quantity or the mass of the object and so on ... after his training, he took a bath, at this time he was in his bed, activated the augmented reality and decided to watch the news.

To activate it, all you had to do was concentrate on a mantra, this would activate the nubots in your body and you will immediately be able to see in front of it what you will look for in the vyndra network with your thinking, this technology was obtained with the collaboration of one of the species that lived in vyndra, even so, that did not want the mobiles to cease to exist voice calls were still made and also although they were connected to augmented reality that meant that constant attention was paid to it the smartphone was still useful.

Although he was relaxed after the bath, he still could not completely forget the thoughts he had in training and this was because of the memories that accompanied them, he could not fully concentrate on his reading about the history of humanity, I also call it the Attention to the comments of other people that everything was invented and that they apparently doubted the records and some even claimed that the mother planet did not exist and there was some kind of conspiracy to control humans, and as far as he knew until now the Records matched what he had found and discussed with his parents a few years ago.

"Maybe I should deactivate the option to see the comments on the subject on social networks ..." he thought and then he noticed a notification on the side of his vision, it was a message from Sarah, the girl on his team, he said that she and the Two others visited him in a few days and they had also obtained authorization to use a gym to train a little since they did not have to lose contact and had to improve their cooperation as a team. He had a schedule prepared for the rest of the vacation and insisted that he should join. He honestly replied that he had nothing else to do on vacation but I can not assure you that he could always attend. After sending the message, he deactivated the RA and slowly fell asleep.

The day of the visit of his colleagues arrived, he felt somewhat restless, he had no idea what they should do until they went to the gym.

On the planet where he came from it was rare to meet other children, and he was always with his parents, the difficulties of the place made life like the one he was leading right now so difficult from the moment he opened up to them last year, although He could talk to them, somehow he still had trouble dealing with them.

He was more used to another type of life, one in which he only hoped to always be with his parents and grow to help them improve the situation of the planet like the humans who took the risk to make it a better place for their species. Although his parents never fully explained what was happening, he felt that he was not entirely sure as they often told him, he noticed in their looks that sometimes they seemed to look for something that he could not see, so he understood the strength that was what happened and that's why now they are not with him.

Although from the outside it could be said that he acted normally, since he used to respond concisely, he was not heard to speak too much. Once he joined the group, the children noticed that his way of speaking was very formal and sometimes he used words that they did not understand, this was because when coming from a "Colony" that was not in contact with the rest of the human colonies, their dialect deviated a little, even so, they did their best to maintain the base for, if one day they could meet others human, being able to communicate. So Tom read every day he could and kept AR active in the center to find the meaning of the words he didn't understand. The doorbell rang. He approached and opened it, outside were Sarah, Adol, and Aiden. He was momentarily speechless.

- You are not going to invite us to come in?

- Or .. ahh\, yes\, if they do pass\, excuse me.

- Do not worry - Adol said\, as he touched his shoulder

close the door slowly, while he thought about what Doing, turned to follow them and met Sarah raising her triumphant left fist, displaying the bracelet that indicated she was now a breeder.

Tom blinked and said, "Great, now you also have a child."

- yes\, my father told me it was time for me to start raising one\, as it would be important in the future.

- My mother also told me the same thing\, I don't understand why but it seems that something important will happen with the creatures. - Aiden commented as he sat down.

- Hahahahaha it must be good to have people who work in important places to know these things\, you know\, I also hope to enter the council when I grow up Adolf sounded hopeful\, Tom approached with Sarah and went to get some drinks for all. Then he appeared with some glasses of water and some snacks.

- Excuse me\, I don't usually have a lot of people here\, I suppose I will have to prepare myself for these cases ...

- Don't worry\, they knew firsthand that Tom didn't consume too much and always thought about saving or rationing for later.

- Mmm ... right - while I saw\, through the AR that around his companions were his creatures\, he said - I let Drako go out when we come back\, could we practice with them\, can they talk?

- Not mine is starting to study but it still lacks

- Yuan\, it's the same.

- Mmm .. I just started so there is a long way to go

- Drako is also practicing. When they can communicate\, their growth is supposed to improve.

They continued talking for half an hour.

- Because we are not dating - Sarah said - we have to go to the gym.

The three answered affirmatively and left. On the way, Drako joined the group.

- Well\, we are here\, now I am going to show you the exercises that we will use\, dad\, told me they were from the army and that we can use it now I will share this in the group.

While Sarah said this in the corner from the vision of the three a notification appeared to them. They opened the file and two people appeared before them, listing a series of exercises.
