Hello, people! Sorry, this wasn't quite on time, but still, it's pretty close. This is the final chapter but there will be a sequel, and I will tell you about that at the bottom! Thanks for reading and please review!

They attended the funeral the next week.

Noble's Green was a small town, where everyone knew everybody, and when one of them died, it was like a death inside the family for each civilian. The entire funeral home, the only funeral home, was packed with people, all crying or just barely holding back tears.

Mr. Madison was sniffling in the second row, his eyes redder than the truck he drove everyday. Theo and his family were strolling inside, Mr. Plunkett supporting his wife while their son limped in behind them, still healing but definitely looking better. Daniel's parents were trying to comfort a wailing Georgie, not bothering to hide their own tears as people gave their condolences to the grieving family. Clay and Bud lounged in the corner, and although Eric couldn't prove it, he was sure that there were tears in Clay Cudgens's eyes. Even Mr. Snyder, who seemingly hated everyone and everything except for math, was choking back heart wrenching sobs.

The original Supers were seated in the front row alongside the Corrigans, seeing as Daniel was their best friend, but Eric was beginning to regret that decision. His best friend just looked so pale and fragile... so empty. So lifeless.

"We are gathered here today to mourn Daniel Owen Corrigan, son... student... brother... friend... and hero. His friends and family are going to say a few words to honor this very unique boy that deserves to be remembered for all he's done. Up first, Daniel's mother and father, Ashley and Martin Corrigan."

Daniel's mother stumbled up there, Georgie in her arms and her husband not too far behind.

"D-Daniel was actually my nephew that I adopted after my sister's tragic death, but I love him just the same. Daniel went through so much in his life, the death of his parents and sister, abusive foster parents, depression, before he finally found a home with us and friends in these wonderful people." Ashley directed this statement at the original Supers, her eyes brimming with tears. "He was a very special person and despite everything, he found the strength to become a hero in more ways than one. He saved my husband and me after my second miscarriage and he saved his friends, or at least that's what I've heard from them. And then, to top it all off, he rescued the Plunkett family from the fire."

Mrs. Corrigan wiped her eyes and the people mentioned in the speech either broke down in tears of just buried their heads in their hands. Eric, though, just stared at his best friend's pale body, unable to tear his eyes away.

Mr. Plunkett decided now was a good time to take over. "My son was a wonderful boy and I regret every time I yelled at him, for his grades, when he up and disappeared for hours a few years ago. I'm sure all of the parents remember that, but there was a reason behind it. And looking back, I never really apologized to my eldest child. I love him, and he was a very special child that cannot be described with words."

Georgie suddenly started tugging on his mother's sleeve as they started to walk away. He whispered something in her ear and she nodded, holding him up to the mic.

"Daniel was the best big brother ever. He don't let the bad things get me and he placed Super man with me. I'll never forget him."

Crying erupted at the short speech. It seemed to be the needle that broke the camel's back and sobs echoed through the funeral home, the loudest being Mollie's.

Now, the Corrigans stepped down and Rohan stepped up. Standing on a stool with his back as straight as a rod, he began but solely by his voice and red eyes you could tell he wasn't as calm as he seemed.

"I first met Daniel two years ago, when we were both twelve. Mollie had told me about the new kid- the first new kid in a long time- so naturally I was curious. He had the same bus stop as us and he stood up to these two bullies. That took guts. Then, he saved us from the third rule by defeating the Shroud twice, and releasing the stolen powers to their rightful owners. And then he saved the Plunketts, the family of the man that took these powers. I guess we saw what we all couldn't. Even after last year, the Supers never exactly excepted the Plunketts into our town like everyone else did because we couldn't see past their name and our grudge against Herman Plunkett. Yet Daniel not only excepted them, he became friends with Theo and saved them from that fire without a second thought, despite the fact that he had no powers to protect him. It was quite heroic and whenever anyone asked me who my best friend is, I will always say Daniel Corrigan, even though he's passed on. He will be remembered, that I can assure you."

Rohan stepped down as everyone dabbed their eyes at the speech that the little teenager had made.

Next was Louisa and Rose Rodriguez, both decked out in black dresses and flats.

"I had a crush on Daniel last year," Louisa began. "I even kissed him, but I won't remember him as that school girl crush or anything of the sort. I'll remember him as my friend, my hero. He's saved my life more times than I can count, and I never saved him once. I would give anything to do it again, but I can't. I'll miss him dearly, and I won't forget him. I loved him."

She stepped back and Rose took her place at the podium.

"Daniel was my hero. In fact, I wrote my 'who is your hero?' paper on Daniel because he's always there for me. He never got annoyed with me, or at least didn't show it, and he always found time to spend with me. He was like my big brother."

The little girl began sobbing and Louisa led her back to their seats, cradling her little sister as she heaved hard breaking cries.

Next up was Simon and Michael, who decided to step up at the same time and make their speeches together.

"For those of you that don't know, Daniel helped to restore our stolen powers last year," Michael announced.

"When Daniel came to town, all of the Supers questioned the rules and figured that Daniel was they key to preventing the third rule. He stayed with me throughout the night of my thirteenth birthday, and even when the Shroud came, he didn't back down. He tried to lead it out, to fight it, to help me and got a broken arm because of it. Then, he saved me again when he returned my powers. Daniel is a person that never stops giving," Simon stated.

"I agree," Michael picked up. "I didn't know him as well as I wish I had, but I knew him well enough to know he is a person you want to be. He has a golden character and that's really the only thing I can use to describe it. He was kind and I could see him being a great detective someday- a professional one. I could see him being a fantastic father and husband, but that was stolen from him. I can only wait until the day we see him again."

Whether than saying anything, Simon walked over to the casket and placed a rose on top of Daniel's very still chest.

"Goodbye, Daniel Corrigan. You will be remembered," he whispered.

Next was Mollie, who was still choking back sobs as she waltzed up to the podium.

"I loved him," were the first words out of her mouth. "Since the day we met two years ago, I've had a crush on him. He was my first kiss, my friend; he was everything to me. I don't have much to say because, as Daniel described me, I'm no words and all action. He was right. I promise that I will search for the person that did this until my dying day. And I will find him. It's the least I can do for the boy that did so much for me."

She stepped down, her features set in a definite and determined glare.

Eric was last and he had had this speech planned out for months. He just thought he'd say it to Daniel's face and not at his funeral.

"This is a letter I wrote to Daniel a few months ago, before the fire. I figured since I'm not able to read it to him, I can at least share what it says." Eric fumbled with the paper.

"Dear Daniel,

Thank you for everything. For helping to defeat the Shroud even though you could have easily walked away from this fight. I'm not mad at you for blaming me because we all make mistakes and you made up for it to by defeating the thief that would've stolen my powers on my thirteenth birthday. Thank you for returning the stolen powers and getting Michael and Simon back. Thank you so much.

You are one of the first people that I have trusted since my dad died. I've told you things that I don't even tell Mollie or Rohan because I have a feeling you understand what I'm going through.

Thank you, Daniel, and I want you to remember something. You act like you're alone, Daniel, but you're not. I know you've always been a loner, but you have friends, Daniel. You don't have to do everything alone. Never forget that.

-Eric."

Applause and sobs mixed together, but Daniel didn't hear it.

'Oh, Daniel,' he thought, 'why didn't you listen to me?'


When Daniel woke up, he found himself staring at the back of a car seat. The back of the drivers seat in his mom's minivan, to be exact.

What? He wondered.

He looked to the side and saw Georgie- around two years old, though, not four- passed out in his car seat with his parents talking in the front.

What the heck?

He leaned forward and heard the crumbling of paper in his sweatshirt pocket.

Reaching into his pocket, Daniel pulled out a ripped piece of lined paper.

It read: 'Make it right.'

It was unsigned.

Daniel pulled his phone out of his pocket and read the date, nearly dropping it in shock.

August 11, 2014.

Two years ago.


there will be a sequel, and I have not decided on the publishing date or the title yet, but it'll be up soon! It will be about Daniel getting another chance because of everything that happened to him and all of his heroic deeds. He will time travel back to the Powerless time and try to change everything that occurred.

Review! It would really make my day!

Thanks for reading! Goodbye!
