Chapter 2: Titan
The next day Timothy woke up early, at four. Since yesterday was his birthday Henry had given him a day off, but today was his final day with him after that he would be going to the agency's headquarters for the joining process tomorrow.
After going through his morning ritual, he jogged to the Champion Boxing Club, Henry was already there waiting for him.
"On time boy."
The first thing Timothy noticed was the lack of emotion bars on Henry's head which just confirmed his theory about him not being able to read Mega Humans' emotions.
Henry stood up from the receptionist's desk and walked around it only to dwarf him with his massive height of 6'8 and even at the age of seventy he was still in better shape compared to the men half of his age.
Henry started to walk toward the men's bathroom, once inside the bathroom he walked to the last stall and unlocked it using a key and then pressing his finger on the handle.
The stall was protected and only Henry could open it. Once inside the stall, he flushed the toilet which resulted in the entire wall shaking and moving to the side, revealing a secret door.
Henry walked through the door; Timothy followed his old mentor inside the secret door.
Once both were inside, the door locked itself.
The interior was built like a vast storage building; the huge hall was empty and was bigger than a soccer field with a small glass cabin at one corner.
"We will go through the routine boy."
Timothy nodded his head and spoke: Suit Up
Suddenly multiple ants like red small Nanobots rushed out of his wristwatch that was on his right hand and started to spread on his hand once his hand was covered with them they started to spread further and covered his upper body and lower body in less than ten seconds his entire body was covered by them and they bonded with each other creating a latex-like material suit around his body.
It was a highly advanced suit created using cutting-edge ANT- Advanced Nano Technology.
There were only seven companies in the world that had this kind of technology and there were only three companies in the USA.
He knew the suit that he was wearing was extremely costly; somewhere between 10 to 15 million dollars and that only those who had proper licenses could buy them.
Now his entire body was covered in a red-coloured latex suit except his eyes which had white visors.
There was also a white coloured big 'T' written on his front upper body, it was an acronym for his name: Titan.
He was against such a flashy thing - but it was what Mr. Garrison wanted. He wanted to make sure that he appeared like any new Mega Human would- flashy, loud, funky and wild.
Being flashy and loud was the trend of this generation. This was why this suit was given to him and to make sure he got used to it he had to wear it during every session with Henry.
His spine still feels chills at the thought of the name that was given to him: "The Heavy Hitter."
Of course, he argued with Garrison for more than half an hour to get a new name. Well, they argued for what felt like another half an hour going through various names like The Back Breaker, The Bone Shatter etc.
Then they both agreed on one name which was suggested by Henry, it was "The Titan Man."
Of course, the 'The' and 'Man' was removed, and they agreed to keep the name, "Titan" for him.
"Are you ready Titan?"
"I was born ready."
It was again Mr. Garrison's idea that he should use such a one-liner and catchphrases; this was something even Timothy liked.
Suddenly, giant axes came down from the roof and started to swing like pendulums along with sharp chain saw-like blades that popped up from the floors.
His Cosmian durability was such that both those weapons were useless to him. Even the ANT suit was so strong that it could bear the attacks of those weapons without any problem but again that was the catch.
He has to go through them without letting any of the weapons touch him.
Without wasting much time, he jumped forward and like a skilled gymnast he crossed all the weapons without any trouble.
Once he cleared it a giant metal wall appeared at the distance of twenty meters. He has to achieve his top speed and then stop himself before colliding with the wall.
To normal eyes, it appeared like he had disappeared and appeared again barely an inch before the wall but in reality, he moved at his full speed and just stopped before colliding with the wall.
Once it was clear he had not hit the wall all the weapons he had crossed were gone the axes were gone back inside the roof replaced by giant circles made of iron which were hanging by thick chains and we're swinging in the air the same way the axes did.
This time he had to fly through them without touching the edges of any of the circles and also, he had to stop before touching another metal wall that popped out at the edge of the rooftop.
He took a deep breath and let the air around take him with it.
Slowly his body left the floor and started to float in the air, he reached the equal height at which the rings were swinging in the air.
Like a bullet, he shot across the rings, again for normal eyes it appeared like he had disappeared from one point and suddenly appeared at another point right before the wall.
"Well done my boy! You did a terrific job, Titan."
Henry aka The Wall was a strict mentor he wasn't someone who would be impressed easily.
In the beginning, the legend had got him through hell in various training sessions, but once it was clear last month that he had learned most of his powers the man had opened a new side of himself and had also started to treat Timothy at an equal level.
"Now for the second stage."
"Yes, sir."
With his affirmation Titan landed on the floor, the visors from his face disappeared now his entire face was covered in latex-like material.
While the material of the suit wasn't strong enough to suppress his Cosmian senses properly it was enough to dampen his ability of smell and hearing while taking away his vision entirely.
Suddenly, there were multiple openings in the walls of the building and humanoid androids were released into the room from this door.
"Titan there is twenty series 'C' androids. Eight are noncombatants while a dozen are armed and dangerous. You must put the combatants down without any collateral damage."
