[ WP ] Chaos in the world after an unknown phenomenon which gives every single human unique superpowers

`` Jinx!'' 
 
 The young woman laughed after uttering the familiar word. She'd always been fascinated by the game as a kid. Say the same word at the same time, and the first person to call out `` jinx'' could silence the other person until someone said their name. 
 
 At first, she'd been bitter about the power. Why not immortality? Or super-healing like Wolverine, or Deadpool? But the power to make people mute until their name was uttered had proved to be more effective than she'd thought it would be. 
 
 Take this fratbro, for instance. He'd been able to make people vomit by saying the word `` weaksauce''. It'd been a simple matter of following behind him, and muttering `` weaksauce'' under her breath, until she'd got the timing right. 
 
 This was just a small victory, though. Everything was quickly turning to shit. 
 
 It was exactly three days since whatever had happened, had happened. The first day and a half had wiped out a significant amount of people, as far as she could tell. She'd been unfortunate enough to be in the city where some asshole got the power to explode without being harmed. It had taken a team of someone being able to turn people blind while maintaining eye contact with them, someone able to create rope traps out of thin air, and someone with the guts to actually kill someone else to take that asshole down. 
 
 Unfortunately for the would-be heroes, the exploding asshole had been standing next to someone whose power was to make other people's powers manifest themselves when they died. The whole thing had turned out to be more or less of a wash, but at least the exploding asshole was gone now. 
 
 As she surveyed the street in front of her, she noticed something odd in the display window of a computer store. A monitor had turned itself on, and the picture of a vaguely familiar girl appeared on it. Once the picture had solidifed, the monitor turned itself inside out, and suddenly the girl was standing inside the shop. Huh. 
 
 That was useful. Travelling over tv waves? Through wiring? Maybe over the internet? 
 
 While she would n't have minded that kind of power, she'd still not gotten the shortest end of the stick. With billions of people suddenly getting unique powers, some had been hilarious. Some had been awful. She'd seen a man turn himself inside out... Unfortunately, his power had not covered being able to survive that. 
 
 While pondering her next move, a blast of sound and fury caught her attention. 
 
 `` Oh God..'' 
 
 In the distance, a mushroom cloud was forming. 
 
 Before she had time to react, the shockwave had thrown her body - along with whoever else was close by - like so many ragdolls.
