Story I whipped for my English Uni course. Got me full marks, do you guys like it?

Vaccines are one of many greatest medical creations. They are created by taking a natural virus cell, and then they take out the harmful part. They inject this ‘harmless virus cell’ it into your body and your body’s immune system will make antibodies to kill these cells and protect you from any new virus cells that enter your body. However what if someone did the opposite? What if someone modified a virus in a way that made it stronger?

In the year 3069, an ordinary man discovered he had the ability to turn anything he held into gold, however unlike the fabled ‘King Midas’, he could control his ability. This man couldn’t believe it, so he started to research if there more people like him with ‘special abilities’ or if any scientists knew what gave him his unique ability. Through his research he stumbled upon a fascinating book that explained eventually human genes would all become different and give them ‘special abilities’, however there would be a few humans who would accelerated gene modification and would obtain their abilities before others. This man believed in this scientist’s hypothesis and wanted to meet him.

He went to the scientist’s house and found out that the scientist had died in an accident. However his son who was very interested in his father’s research took over his role. He explained that he wasn’t the first one of his ‘kind’ to seek help from him. He gave the man a few more names of people who had ‘special abilities’ like him. He went all around the world and found these people. The man asked if they wanted to start an organisation where they would help people like themselves who were confused with themselves. They were happy to go along with the man’s idea, however they were very skeptical they could start an organisation as none of them were very rich. The man consoled them by telling them his ability of making anything he wanted into gold.

As they started their company, they realised they were just people with abilities, they would need more people and a disguise as they weren’t sure as to how the public would feel about these evolved humans. This man offered the scientist’s son a whole lab and everything else he would need to find out more about people like him and if there was a way get rid of their ‘special ability’. The scientist’s son who was very fascinated in this area of science agreed.
