So for the long time without an update. I hope you enjoy 'Rise of Heroes' aka Evan's story.
Ch. 2
-Evan's POV-
At breakfast, I rubbed my head as I sat my newspaper down. The pounding hasn't gone away yet. The stone from last night, sat in my robe pocket, and hasn't left my side since last night. The doors connecting the dining room to the kitchen swung open, and Anthony walked over to me with a pot of coffee.
'I hope he doesn't mind decaf, because that's all we got.' He said.
"Anthony, you know I hate decaf." I answered him.
We made eye contact, and I saw the confusion on his. "Uh, how did you know?"
I tilted my head with equal confusion. "I heard you."
"But I never said it." He put his hand on my forehead. "Are you feeling okay, sir?"
"I'm fine. Can you get me something for this headache? My head is pounding." I asked with a slight wince.
He quickly left me to myself. I went for my glass of orange juice, and watched it move away. "What the-?" I went for it again. "Okay, this is fucking weird now."
I rushed up to my room, and got dressed so I could go talk Tyler. Once I was dressed, I hopped onto my red Suzuki. Zooming through the streets, I get a call from Johnathan. Answering it, he talked faster than I ever heard him before.
"Woah, woah Johnathan slow down. Say that again slowly." I answered as I made a turn.
"There was this bright light outside my house, Tyler and I went out to go check it out. Next thing we know these orange and blue stones appeared in our hands. When I woke up this morning, I was staring at myself. Just… just come to the house." Johnathan was freaked out about whatever was happening.
I pulled up just as Brock and Lui did. They pulled out a green and yellow stone, in the respected order. I showed them mine, before the door opened. "What the Hell is going on?"
"How the fuck should I know?" Lui complained as he scratched his arms.
I sat down as I heard everything from them. And I mean everything. 'This is getting us nowhere.' Brock shook his head as he was sitting next to the window.
"Guys. Guys. Guys!" They all stopped when everything shook at my anger. "Brock is right, arguing is getting us nowhere."
"Wait, how did you know?" Brock gave me that same look Anthony gave me.
"Didn't you say that?" Brock shook his head, and everyone gave me a look as of realizing what was happening.
Jonathan had a sudden grin appear on his face. "Dude, you're a fucking mind reader! And can move things with your mind!"
"No, no I can't." I was so confused and distraught that I didn't realize that objects were raising into the air.
Tyler pointed beside me, "Oh yeah then why the hell is all that doing some poltergeist shit?"
I gasped, and accidently dropped everything. "Sorry Tyler."
"Hey guys, watch this." Jonathan closed his eyes, and his body began to separate. Until there was two of them sitting on the couch with the same grin. "Isn't this awesome!? He… well I… can't talk, but he knows everything I'm thinking!"
"If you think that's cool, watch this." Tyler held out his hand, the orange stone in his hand glowed, and a pistol appeared in his hand. "Any weapon I think of, it just appears."
"I can talk to birds." Brock mumbled.
We all looked at Lui, who finally stopped scratching. "I can smell things better, and I apparently have a craving for bananas. Well that's what David said after he found me on the counter, naked, covered in banana peels."
"Poor David, forced to see your tiny dick." I joked despite the pain from the pounding my head.
"Fuck you, Evan." Lui threw a pillow at me.
My first reaction was to catch it, but when I lifted my hands in the air the pillow floated three inches from me. Lui's eyes widened as I smirked before laughing it back at him.
"Haha!" I laughed.
"Guys, we have fucking powers." Brock pointed out the obvious, "Do you know what this means?"
Jonathan seemed to have caught on, because him and his… erm friend nodded with excitement. "We're superheroes!"
"No." I quickly responded.
Everyone looked at me as if I just insulted their moms. "What do you mean no? We've got powers, and we could actually stop bad people. Come on Evan, imagine what we could do?"
I shook my head with a scowl. "We aren't heroes, like the comic books we read as kids. This is real life, we-we-we need to find some medical help on what is happening to us."
Brock and Johnathan looked at each with small frowns, Lui and Tyler had that same look. They really had their eyes set on being real life super heroes. I mean, come on this was some freak accident. Radiation poisoning, or some secret government experiment, something. Johnathan looked at me with that determined look in his eyes. And that meant I couldn't steer him off the path of wanting to be a hero.
"Evan, come on. Imagine all the good we could do." He said with sorrow.
"But imagine all the bad that we could by being heroes. What if we get caught, we could get our asses thrown in jail. Or what if we get killed?" I reminded him.
Brock was thinking the same things as both of us, everyone wanted to help the world not with money anymore, but actually do some good. I knew I wasn't going to win this battle, so I sighed in defeat before looking up at the group with a smile. "Okay, we'll give this hero thing a try. We're going to need names."
Brock and Johnathan jumped up cheering, really excited with this. Tyler and Lui both had wide grins. And that was how us four created the League of Heroes. Oh, did you think that was the end of my story? Oh, no, no, no it's far from over. If anything, it's only the beginning.
I hope you all enjoyed this. Love you all! :) Talk about breaking that 4th wall, huh ;)
