The Power of Un
Main Idea

Gibson used this power to undo the movement when his sister Roxy, got hit by a truck by a pickup truck on the street.
It is the power of the “unner” thing which can undo things by going back to time, then change the events that already happened.
It is the power that helped Gib to fix his problems, to change his wrong acts, and to keep his loved ones safe from the accident.
It is given by an old man to Gibson Finney.
