Chapter 3

Who finds the ring?

Charles Covington

Charles was handicapped. His life was in ruins. He had fallen off his parents roof many years ago. He woke up this day not knowing it would be a day like no other. A start of a new life.

Charles had ordered some things off Amazon like usual. Today they arrived. Inside the box was an extra item he has not ordered. Curiously he looked at the package inquisitively. Inspecting it. He knew any mistake the company made wouldnt be an issue. Free merch! Upon opening the plain white box he saw a blue ring box with a black symbol. Googling that symbol Charles had learned that it was actually Japanese writing. The Kanji symbol for Truth. Also called the upside down man or in tarot "the hanged man."

He felt his stomach churn. As if he could unknowingly feel the power of this item. Opening the blue ring box would reveal a marble white ring. Again with the Kanji symbol in black etched into the marble. There was also a sheet of paper tucked inside the lid.

"Whom ever dawns this ring shall inherit the power to alter reality. Simply speak your truth and so shall it be" written in Japanese. Charles had used Google Translate. "No way" Charles said to himself. Trepidation setting in. With nothing to lose, he decides to wear the ring. Maybe it would bring good luck. Maybe the ring does exactly as it states.

The ring once placed on his left middle finger magically changed shape to fit perfectly. Shocked and surprised Charles gasped. "No fucking way" he whispered to himself and the ring became its original size. Clearly, a truth has been spoken. "It is as it was before" and the ring changes its shape once more to properly fit his finger.

"What did you say honey?" Charles mother asked. "Nothing mother I am just talking to myself" he wasnt wrong. He indeed was mumbling to himself. Thoughts rushing through his mind. The trouble he could get into, but also the fun he could behold.

He waited until that night when everyone was in bed. His family sleeping away as he spent his night as usual. Except this night is like no other. He knew which truth he must speak into being. "My body is healing rapidly and painlessly. A healing ability like Wolverine from x-men. Starting off slowly but eventually reaching full speed. Never sick. Never ill. Immune to all disease." Charles was happy at what was to come. He spent the night watching Game of Thrones until falling asleep.

What's next?
