The Secret Life Of Nick Bryson

"Oh, I was just thinking."

That was usually Nicks excuse when he was caught in his dream world. Nick dreamt a

lot, it was his way of escaping. Inside Nick's head contained the material found in the minds of

great warriors, super heroes and brave adventurers risking life and limb for thrills. However,

this material was stuck inside the body of this very contrasting, innocent teenager who you

couldn't even expect to lead a successful camping expedition. But the mind has no limits. Nick

demonstrated this frequently.

Nick Bryson hated biology, it was so boring and just to make the fact that it was

Monday morning even worse Nick had triple biology first thing! In the lesson today the class

had to carry out an experiment, which was supposed to show the effects of cell mutation.

Nick heard a smash as someone dropped a test tube on the floor. It exploded much

like an eruption out of the barrel of a pistol...

"Help! Help!" persisted the manager of the richest bank in town.

"Silence you fool! You think anyone can hear you?!" replied Lex, holding a pistol to the

managers head. "No one can stop me from becoming the richest man in town!"

"Ahem," interrupted Nick "you think I could stop ya?"

"Bioman?!" exclaimed Lex "But...but...I killed you!"

"You didn't kill me enough Lex, now hand the money back"

"No way!" retaliated Lex as he attempted a impetuous exit. But no sooner did the

thought of escape had entered his mind he completely evaporated.

"Damn, I really didn't want to do that" explained Bioman almost apologetically. "Well,

better clean up the damage"....

"And how exactly do you plan to do that, Nick Bryson?"

Nick's experiment exploded into thin air, just like his arch nemesis, Lex. Unfortunately

the experiment remained - spread across half the Biology Lab.

"Sorry Miss"

"I'm sure you will be after your detention at lunch time Nick."

Nick's next lesson was English:

"Now class, today we're going to read a great classic play."

"Boring!" Nick thought to himself...

"...Mr Bryson, what was it like working alongside Demi Moore in such a immense

film?"

"It was my pleasure working with Demi, she's a great actress and very easy to work

with. I had good fun filming with her."

"And how does it feel to be voted best male actor of the year at the Blockbuster film

awards?"

"To be honest, it hasn't really sunk in yet, I'm amazed. But I know that without my fans

I'm nothing, so my thanks goes out to them."...

"Nick!" protruded his teachers voice, "how do you expect to do well in life if you can't

pay attention for more than 5 minutes in my lesson?! I want to speak to you once the rest of my

attentive class are dismissed."

After getting away from his English teacher, Nick made his way to History. Nick did really hold

a grudge against history, unlike most of his other subjects.

His class was learning about the Second World War and as soon as the lesson started

Nick, uncontrollably, fell into his alternate universe...

"OK men, this is it," explained Captain Bryson, "every man that has died here has died

to win this last battle. Don't let these men die in vain, fight well and honour your country!"

Captain Bryson marched his troops towards the battlefield with a calm, focused

expression on his face....

.... "Nick Bryson come here this instant!" insisted Nick's history teacher.

In both worlds Nick Bryson moved towards his destination. In one world fellow

soldiers were dying by his side from the streaming bullets whistling through the sky. In the other

world pupils were launching stares that cut through Nick like a lead bullet. Captain Bryson

carried on marching towards the enemy with no fear in his eyes, gifting the opposing force with

death. Nick felt the glare of his teacher burning through him. He knew that one Nick Bryson

had to go and which one as well. Captain Bryson had run out of ammunition and, with pure

courage, forced himself towards the enemy as a drop from the shower of bullets hit him straight

through his heart.
