Skip Class and Experiment?

Yes

I decide to ditch my next few periods and try this power out. I grab a soccer ball from the trunk of my car and head to the school soccer field. It's covered in snow but I've played on snow covered fields before.

I drop the ball and start juggling, immediately noticing that if I concentrate, it takes no effort. The ball bounces perfectly off my shoes, and I know I can juggle as long as I desire without ever dropping the ball. I start doing juggling tricks that I've always tried, but never mastered. Its as if I suddenly have the soccer skills of Lionel Messi, the ball responding to my touch as if my brain is directing its movements. My dribbling has suddenly become top class, and I decide to test my shooting.

I play as a centerback, basically the last line of defense before the goalie. I'm a great tackler and good at marking and defending, but I'm obviously not a fantastic dribbler or shooter. But as I start shooting from 20 yards out, I realize my shot can suddenly rival any professional forward.

My powers must have made me much more athletic, I think to myself. I can control my body much better, have amazing reaction times, and can easily imitate things that I watch other people do. I probably am stronger and more endurant. The perfect athlete, or warrior, like Achilles.

Can I tell anyone though?

"Is this meant to be a secret?" I yell at the sky, hoping for an answer.
