[ WP ] You gain a powerful superpower , but it comes at a great cost .

When I first received my superpower, I was told that I would probably regret it. What did I care, though? I was the one person chosen out of the 5 million or so that entered the sweepstakes to get a superpower. I guess the whole sweepstakes to win a superpower should have tipped me off, but like I said, what did I care? 
 
 Well... I should have. 
 
 
 The superpower I chose was telekinesis. The power to manipulate objects and their kinetic energy. In essence, it's like I have several different powers. Flight, super speed, super strength, and a few others that are less impressive. I did n't realize, however, the excruciating pain that would come with it. 
 
 I have n't actually been able to move since I got my powers. I've been stuck in some plain white room, hooked up to IVs and pain medicine ( which does n't help ). Also, the pain is far too great for me to focus long to put my powers to use. I may as well be dead. It would actually be preferable to what my life is like now. 
 
 Not only am I in constant pain, I have no memories. I have no idea who I am. The memories I do have are completely useless. The memory of that sweepstakes? Useless. All that does is give me an indescribable feeling of regret. Occasionally some man in a lab coat will come in to look at my vitals. I always ask him questions about who I was, but the only he has ever told me is that I had a wife and children. Unfortunately, I ca n't remember them. I think forgetting about them, if they're even real, is probably worse than the pain. 
 
 Real. That's a funny word. I do n't know, maybe none of this is real. Maybe the sweepstakes was all just a ruse for them to have a test subject for some project. I try not to think about it too much. My sanity is the only thing I have left.

 `` How is he?'' Janice asked the doctor. 
 
 `` He seems to be getting better. Although, he has shown no signs of waking up from the coma,'' the doctor responded as he skimmed over Ken's medical sheet. 
 
 `` I do n't know what could have possibly gotten into him. He woke up spouting something about having a superpower and then ran out the door. Where he got the idea is beyond me.'' Janice still could n't believe Ken had stepped out in front of a car on the highway. By all rights, he should be dead. She was glad he still had a fighting chance to survive though. 
 
 `` Ma'am I do n't know either. But something I was told once seems relevant here.'' 
 
 `` And what might that be?'' 
 
 `` That creativity and imagination are powerful and sometimes dangerous powers to have.''
