Micah Wong Nok-hang (aged 10), Lutheran Tsang Shing Siu Leun School

You won’t believe what happened to me. One day, I sneaked into my uncle’s science lab, hoping to find some leftover uranium from 1985. As I tiptoed around, I slipped and – splash – I fell right into some glowing toxic sludge.

When I tried to get out, I felt different. I looked at my hands and realised ... I had superpowers. First, my skin became harder than the stale cookies they serve in the canteen. Nothing could hurt me now. Second, I discovered that I could shoot powerful beams from my hands – beams so strong they could destroy a building.

Finally, when I really concentrated, I could transform into a god. Just in time, too, because a villain showed up to cause trouble. But with my new powers, I defeated him and saved the day. Yay!
