My Journey to

Become a hero:

Grobyjuggler's story

Chapter 1:

My name is Tom Hickinbottom, I'm an average boy going to college, well I was average until I found out that I had a superhuman ability.

Landing oddly on my left ankle I tried to ignore the gazing eyes of my friends because of my unpredictable tackle and concentrated on why my kick had been so strong?
