Abnormal Norman 3: Beta Test Flight

___________________________________

 

>Day regular harem, 4 days after the arrow incident

Be Norman

>You feel your body giving up on you

>Day after day of Rainbro's workout routine makes you feel like you're being punished

>Worst part is, you get to hear whistles through your ears while Brad can't stop talking on and on about the superhero idea

>So far only Fluttershy seems to take less interest on the whole thing and is probably the only one against it

>4 people knows about the ring:Brad, Purple, Flutters and Rainbro. Aryan and Pinkie have yet to know of this

>It's probably for the best

>You daydream while walking to school, thinking about Aryan Beauty being a damsel in distress, the Mary Jane to your Peter Parker

>It's a guilty pleasure you have, wishing your best friend and romantic interest to get hurt just so you could pull off a heroic act

>You shake these fantasies of and started to think about the workouts and the ring

>You admit to yourself that Purple's theory of "dubs becomes quads" is starting to become a fact

>Yesterday you lifted the family car, something you couldn't do with the ring before

>You found it plausible, but your mind shifts into focus, for you have reached the school door.

>Alright, time for your daily routine. On the left...

>Before you recieve your morning's notice, you've noticed that several of the students went pale, as if they've seen a ghost

>You feel a different aura around you

>Investigating, you noticed the archer girl, Lyra

>She's walking around with black circles under her eyes, as if she hasn't slept for days

>Her calm eyelids cover 40% of her upper eyes, her calm demeanor gives off a small smirk on her face

>Another student comes to her, worried

>"Lyra! I heard you got sick, what ha-"

>She ignores her as if she was just wind passing by.

>You deduce that something's wrong with her, but again, you pay little attention to her once the bell rang.

>Yet, you can't stop thinking about 4 days ago. She ran past the track field in a hurry with worry on her face.

>"I guess I'll try to console her later" you tell yourself

 

:Afterhours:

>Managed to sneak away from Rainbro and her nazi training grounds

>Chill back at house, sitting on the floor throwing a baseball up and down.

>You look at your box of old clothes, toying with the idea of a costume

>the hell with it

>You grab a pair of scissors and your mother's sewing kit and you started cutting and sewing, even though you don't know shit about sewing

>Thread after thread, your ideas flow out like waterfalls

>The ring protects you from needle pricks, making your unexperienced sewing easier

>at long last, your alt costume is done. You look at it with seriousness and joy.

>A combination of an old jacket and several other clothing, looking like a hobo's catsuit, filled with stitches and scratches.

>The mask, which a broken football helmet painted and bleached to green for skull protection, and your two old beanies, sewed together to cover your whole head under the helmet.

>After cutting the eyeholes, you immediately put everything on, just see what it looks and feels like

>You look at yourself, telling yourself that you look awesome and ridiculous.

>Looking at the mirror, you flex yourself, doing one liners and several other ridiculous things

>Well, you got this far, why not go out and make a fool out of yourself

>You thought about it hard. Is this really the first night you'll go out on patrol as a costumed vigilante?

>Not to mention that bullets could still pierce through your skin. You're practically a dude using a Batman cheatcode.

>Looking outside, you see the view of houses and buildings. It gives you a dumb look on your face.

>"Alright" you tell yourself

>"Just a night out jogging on buildings...nothing violent"

>You look at the clock. 7:00 PM.

>You grab your backpack and head off onto the night, hoping this wouldn't be the last time you walk.

 

 

 

6:25

 

Be Lyra

>Your mind is in shambles. Confusion invades your thoughts

>The day you got your first instrument? The day you were born? The day you..."gaah"

>It's happening again

>You see things you aren't supposed to see. You percieve events before your eyes. Events so small that they aren't even supposed to be witnessed

>Ever since the day you wore that locket around your neck, you started to see, to feel things. Time temporarily stopped at your will, visions randomly appear before you

>The one thing you thought would cure the headaches just gave you more problems.

>You couldn't even communicate properly with your mother, much more with your friends.

>Whenever you try to take the locket off, you go blind, going back to the abyss.

>You fear for your life, thinking that it would drive you to the brink of insanity.

>You mumble to your self, ignoring Octavia who's been following you all day.

>You hear her trying to talk to you, but the vision's sounds plug your ears from her

>She goes in front of you, trying to get your attention.

>The vision ends, and you burst in to tears as you lay your head on Octavia'chest

>"Lyra, what's happening to you?"

>"I *sniff* I-I don't know"

>"A-at some *cough* time, I see things. Horrible things. Other times, I see nothing"

>You try telling Octavia what you've been through, but your words confuse her

>"Speak sense! What are you talking about"

>"This...thing"

>You show her the locket you've been wearing

>"I want to get rid of it, but when I do, I lose my vision and I see nothing"

>Octavia looks in fear and shock

>"Can't we take you to the doctor, find out what's wrong with you"

>You mumble to yourself, saying that you'd go to the madhouse if that happens

>Suddenly, another vision starts. This time you see something familiar.

>7:12 on the clock. Date is same as today

>A local convenient store getting robbed by three thugs with bats, one armed with a pistol

>You watch as the cashier shivers in fear as he extracts the money from the cash register

>You also see your mother, hiding in fear in one of the aisles of the store

>Suddenly a man crashes from the windows

>It looks like a masked hobo wearing a catsuit and a helmet

>The masked man insults them, causing them to hit him with a bat. Hobo barely reacts to the metal bat hitting his arm.

>He throws a punch, severely causing pain to the one brute thug

>As he throws a punch, the leader of the pack gets his gun and manages to shoot the hobo

>Blood spills as the vision ends

>"Oh God"

>"Octavia looks at her with worry

>"What...WHAT!?"

>You escape from her yelling "MOM" I'M COMING"

>"LYRA WAIT"

>You decide to stop time, helping you get to the store faster.

>Time stops for 1 minute. You look at your watch as you run. 6:55 PM

>You kept calm and ran on, hoping to reach your mother on time

 

6:45

Be Brad

>"I can't believe Norman bailed on us!" Rainbow  yelled

>It's quarter to 7, and Norman was supposed to meet us at the field for his hero training

>Not. Bradical.

>"I-I'm sure he has a good reason for bailing on us" Flutters said, trying to be neutral

>"If it's because he got lazy, I'm beating the crap out of him tommorow"

>Feeling bored, might as well borrow Twily's notes

>Hey Twily, can I see how our good man is doing?

>She eagerly lends you the notes while explaining to you about her calculations

>Everything in the notepad is filled with math and equine science. Not sure if I understand all this

>Fuck, it's giberish. Just nod and hum Brad. Just nod and hum.

>"HAI GUYS!"

>It's Pinkie and Rarity, seemingly upset

>We all greeted them while Twily seems to have the whole "Guiltbecausesecrets" face

>"It's been days since all of us hung out at once. What going on?"

>Flutters stays quiet, Twily kept her nose buried on her notes

>"We've been...err... training Norman so he could fullfill his dreams of joining the olympics!" I told them

>"Yeah, he's been training all week. I think he's even gaining one hot body" Rainbow added

>"OOOHH, my little Normy's finally getting fit." Rarity said excitedly

>Pinkie's also happy for the news, saying they need to surprise him with a pre olympics party

>Before Pinkie could continue, Rarity questioned the group

>"Where is he, then?"

>Crap, a plothole to our clever story.

>The awkwardness is rising, time to get out

>"Oh gee, look at the time"

>It's 7:00

>"Listen, there's a big game going on and I don't want to miss it"

>Yeah, good lie

>You briskly walked out, hoping Twily, Rainbow or Flutter thinks of a better excuse

>The ring doubles your jumping and climbing skills, making you feel like a professional runner

>Feels like the world's your oyster.

>Your enhanced ear hears some of the commotion below you

>"Mommy there's a ninja on the rooftop" said a little boy to her hot mother [spoiler]button pls[/spoiler]

>You laugh it off, and continue to freerun in your neighborhood

>Suddenly, you stop, seeing three suspicious guys enter a convenience store

>oh shit, what's happening

>As you hear a faint scream, you climb to the ledge where the window was, hoping to see more inside the store.

>It's a robbery, holy crap.

>You can't just stand there and watch, there's crime happening

>But you can't fight them, you're inexperience.

>Heart beats faster, your ring lights faintly

>You know you can't let this poor guy get robbed, plus ther's probably people inside

>..except your lack of stamina

>Stop for a moment, breathe Lyra. You need the strength

>Leaning torwards the wall in an allyway, you grab your compact harp from your backpack

>You'customized it so much it's an instrument of harmony and chaos. A harp and a bow

>You look inside your backpack some more
