Wayne could not do anything more than comly to the old man’s instructions. As if by sheer magic, his legs and eyes started moving in the direction of the door and he darted, faster than the fastest Leopard, towards his room…

While scramming, he nipped his ankle on a blade of metal hanging by the side rail… Oh… no…blood, I hate blood…

Wait- said the old man- and he pinted his finger at the wound- I dont want you getting infected, you are my only hope….

And then , it happened, a ray of laser came out of his fingers and hit the spot with the precision of a surgeon’s suture , it healed the wound….

Wayne did not know what to say next…

Run, man- will you get those goggles….??
