Prince Kon

Day Four on the alien planet, the planet known to you and I as home. Prince Kon (which would be the English equivalent of his title, and the phonetic spelling of his name) stood head and shoulders above any human, looking like Marvel's incredible green rage monster, but with dark brown skin (we would call black). He was dressed in only war paint and a loin cloth. His footsteps thundered through the forest where he roamed, in middle America.

Hunters in the woods fired at the giant, but the bullets bounced off his rhino-like skin. When they realized the futility of their attempts, they ran away. Kon growled at them with a mighty roar, and continued walking through the forest. He had never seen trees or grass in the desolate place he came from.

As he continued his thunderous stroll, helicopters came into view. Suddenly he was surrounded by armed men, dressed in black and camo. Some had hid themselves in the foliage, others came down with helicopters. They were expecting him, with high-power artillery and armor-piercing bullets. They began to fire all at once. Kon could feel his super-adrenaline kick in, as he accessed the Kinetic Force.

The Kinetic Force is the field of kinetic energy which spans the entire universe, generating and distributing that energy as needed. Kon could see the bullets coming at a slow speed. He ducked away from some, but could not avoid being hit by others. He managed to avoid hitting any major organs or arteries. He caught one bullet with his hand. Then, with strength and precision, he threw it back at the one of the gunmen.

He ran away from the center, as gunmen perched in trees fired high-power automatic weapons with armor-piercing bullets, down at the center of the circle. He grabbed one of the trees, where a gunman was perched. He pulled the gargantuan tree up by it's roots, and used it like a gigantic bat to swing at the other gunmen. The gunmen fell to the ground. Kon ran around to make sure that each one was knocked out. Only the helicopter and it's pilot remained. The pilot started to fly away. Kon found a bullet lodged into a tree. He threw the bullet at the chopper, but missed (as the bullet flew into outer space). Next he picked up a small log. He needed to adjust to this planet's gravity.

He wound up for a wind-mill pitch and launched the log right into the chopper. As the chopper started to plunge, Kon leaped into the air to grab it. He grabbed the chopper and brought it down with him, steadying the landing. Once he landed, the door swung open, and the pilot began firing. As soon as he had begun firing, though, Kon had disappeared. He was already miles away.

Kon had full access to the Kinetic Force. Running from one place to another was basically like transportation. His body would break down into a field of energy, that could take him anywhere in the universe. Kon arrived in the city, stopped moving, and returned to his bodily form on top of a building on the outskirts of town. It was at this point that he heard a sound like one that he hadn't heard since arriving on this planet. It was a sound in hyper-time, silence to the ears of you and I.

"Kon, I think it's time we met."

Kon was already gone: an invisible field of energy, searching the whole city.

"Not so fast," the voice said, as Kon arrived in an abandoned warehouse. He found the device that had been broadcasting the sound. "If you take one more step, I will blow this whole building, before you have a chance to move."

Nothing could move faster than Kon. So Kon started to leave the warehouse at light-speed. Suddenly as flash of light filled the room, pushing Kon backwards as if it were solid matter. Kon felt paralyzed, and the world around him began to slow back to regular speed. The boxes then detonated, blowing the whole building up. Without his supernatural shield from the fire, Kon was roasted by the flames.

Kon could still hear the mysterious voice saying "I run this town." He sat in agony, as the flames licked him. Heat itself was not something his body was used to. His home planet was the coldest inhabited planet in the Universe. It was more than Kon could bear. He laid down, and accepted defeat.

Across the street was a fire house. In a short amount of time (relative to us) the fire department was on the scene. Ten men went inside, and carried Kon out. They did not question the fact that he was a giant to them, they simply did their job. The medical team had a bigger challenge with his non-human form. Kon's whole body was suffering from second and third degree burns. Shrapnel was lodged into him. He was also in shock.

Soon the Kinetic Force kicked back in. First it went to work in his brain, sorting out the trauma of almost dying. Luckily, Kon was born a warrior, so this didn't take too long (relatively). Next it went to work on his flesh. His skin healed quickly, harder than it was before. He stood up, to the surprise of the service men and women watching, and began to pull the shrapnel out. He continued to heal. Finally, his full speed returned to him, he transformed into a field of energy and zoomed away to find the one who had done this.
