Extra Credit Task 1

1.A super power i would like to have is to read peoples minds. Reading peoples minds would be a cool super power because i could read peoples minds and see what they think of me or something else or thing. If i had this super power i wouldnt tell anyone about it so they wont try to change what they think about. I would probably tell my close friends or tell people who need help in something. I would probably help the police in telling them what the criminals is thinking or if theyre telling the truth or not. That would be the super power i would want if i had the chance to have it.


2. I developed this power by some nuclear thing that was spread onto me. I was at a visit in new york and it was a company of nuclear things. While i was there some employee fell over some nuclear and got onto me. For some reason it got on my head and the next thing i know i was hearing voices but nobody was talking,there mouths werent moving. I started to freak out and left and went home. The second day i went to the doctors and they said i was fine but i told them i heard voices. He thought i was crazy in his mind and i told him i wasnt and he was surprised and said how did you know what i said and i said i read your mind and knew what you said. After all that i got used to my super power and helped people around the world. After months i joined as a police officer and helped them by saying if the criminals were innocent or not.
