"Ok that is weird," Mike said as he looked at the view from his window. he pinched himself to make sure he wasn't asleep and sure it hurt and left a mark, so he was awake. Then Mike noticed that other things are different too, the framed photos on the wall showed him with a group of people he wasn't familiar with, some of them floated in the air, others had glowing eyes, and then he noticed that he himself had a small flame coming out of his right hand.

"The super hero academy class of 2017," it read below, astonishing him, then he looked at the other picture on the wall, in all of them he was in different posses doing stuff out a comic book, in some he hovered using flames, in other he made small twisters and in the last one he hugged a woman that looked very familiar.

"What the hell is going on? am I in some kind of a weird trip? but I never touched those kind of stuff, maybe that asshole John pulled a prank and put on of his medicine in my drink last night, it feels so real," then he felt tingling in his nose and sneezed, freezing the picture in front of him.

"Ahh!" he yelled and them a flame came out from his hand just like in the first picture.

"Calm down, I am sure that there is some reasonable explanation to all of this," Mike told himself as he heard the door to the apartment opening.

"Michal? You are awake! " A female voice was heard from the corridor and there stood Sara, his girlfriend, but she looked different, Sara had silver hair and very pale skin instead of her regular blond and tan, but before Mike could process, Sara rushed and embraced him. "I knew it would work!" she cheered.

"What worked?"

"Of course, you don't remember, your mind was scrambled by Mindwave in your latest mission, you lay unconscious for several days before me and Neuro deiced to try to restore your mind from scraps, it's taken us some time and a lot of effort, but here you are standing! We all thought you were going to vegetable for the rest of your life," Sara explained.

"Mindwave, Neuro, I don't understand those words," Mike responded, worrying Sara. "Oh no, no, no, but it only had 3% chance of happening!" Sara stated as she takes out some sort of device and starts to scan Mike.

"3% of what?" "That we bring back the wrong Michal, you are Michal, but not our Michal," Sara elaborates.

"Wrong Michal? what does it mean wrong Michal, return me back where I belong too,"

"Can't do that, once conciseness is well rested in a mind, it's almost impossible to replace it, only Mindwave can do that, and no chance she will help us here," Sara elaborates.

"So I am stuck here?"

"Yes, I will have to make some calls. Seems like WeatherMike will have a very long recovery period. but first we will need to get you settled, so let's see where do I start?" Sara inquires.

"From the beginning," Mike responds, still trying to process everything.

English isn't my native tongue, and I didn't have time check all the spelling and the grammar so I am sorry for any errors you may encounter.

I like the direction you went with this prompt.

When I first made it I imagined a reality warping event affecting the entire world except for one person, but in your story the world of heroes basically kidnapped a normal man and made him a hero.

It's amazing, and a little unsettling, how comfortable his girlfriend is with the whole replacement goldfish scenario, but as a superhero I guess she's used to clones, time travel, and all of those other wacky hi-jinks.

This was a great story! I hope to see more of your work in the future.
