I was born on the date 5/17/2000. I love and respected all the heroes I grew up watching and observing. I have been training to become a hero myself. I will never know if I become that hero I read about in stories or on the television. I gotta try though, right?

Monday, Lunch Period, sitting at a circle table

I always sit and eat with my friends, Ryan, Mark, and Ricky. We were arguing about who would be the strongest hero. You see, I have the power of water, Ryan has electricity, Mark has fire, and Ricky has earth. So I decided to tell them a way to settle it.

"Hey guys, shut up for a second. How about we make a tournament based on our Hero Ratings on the list?" Hero Ratings were classified by the army of the SS-Class board of teachers. The ranks go in the order of, FF, F, DD, D, CC, C, BB, B, AA, A-, A, A+, S, S+, SS, and the Legendary SX. I honestly rate as a A but I hide a bit of strength so I can never be truly predicted in the case of a worldwide disaster, like the return of Psyphon Doombringer or something. Psyphon D is a SS who went mad and killed almost all of the lower ranks until a single person that outsmarted him. He has been unknown to anyone to future generations like myself and the board of teachers.

"OH, that's bullshit you know it! Ricky has an AA rating! He would whoop all of us!" said a pissed off Mark. "Mark relax, anyone can be the strongest one here so calm yourself down." said myself to Mark. "Shuddup you are worse than everyone at this table! You are a DD rank! So I don't want to hear your shit!" Ricky told us all, "Calm down kiddies. I am not even the strongest anyways. And I have the most train time out of all of us so shut up. You all will get stronger." I want to prove that he can't tell us what to do. Even if it isn't the right thing to do. I love proving people who is their true hero. "Hey Ricky, how about we fight No-Holds-Sleeve?" No-Holds-Sleeve is basically you must fight until someone is knocked out. And you must use all of your power.

"Ok, I guess." We walked into the arena soon after lunch. Everyone else is watching.....literally everyone in school because it is rare to see a No-Holds-Sleeve fight. A lot of people are watching and screaming things like, "A DD fighting an AA? Suicide!" "Come on, this is a waste of time." "I am rooting for you, Chrissy!" Who said...oh. She is here too? Glad she will see my true power. "Ayyy girl! Enjoy this fight!" "Chris, you can give up now and leave without embarrassment." "Don't get cocky, Ricky. You should know my name by now. MY NAME IS CHRISTOPHER MURRAY!!! And you are about to go down." They both got into a fighting stance. I just stood upwards with my right hand in my pocket. "You can take this first attack, Dirty Rick." 

He got a bit upset and tried finishing me in one move called the Still Colossal. The Still Colossal is used to solidify the ground around someone and knock them out due to the crushing feeling of the ground pushing against you. "Oh shit! Well it looks like we are done." "Wait...Chris, you are still awake? You should be....wait no...." "Sorry! I am not as weak as I seem." I break out with a grunt and energy expulsion. "My turn." Walks toward him with a energy ball. "Electro Star, Prison Torture." I throw the ball and it chases him and he can't run fast enough to dodge it. "Oh shit Chris, you aren't bad at this are you?" He blocks it and the ball explodes in the air above him. "Ricky, come on dude. You should know I always am hiding things from you guys. Also to the board leaders, you should know I am clearly not truly a DD rank member. I will let you all truly decide what I am." Ricky goes in for some hits but every time he misses. Almost as it is going through me because I don't move at all. Well he doesn't see me move. He backs up and is a bit tired out. "Oh Ricky, you should I know I am stronger than you." I walk toward him smiling a bit. "Have you ever heard of Megalovania? It is a great fight track." I begin to hum to it while Ricky goes in for some hits. "Chris, how the hell are you so goddamn hard to hit?!" "It is easy to hit me. I am surprised you haven't already. I am just a DD rank ya know? This should be child's play."

I take my right hand out of my pocket. "Well this has been fun, Ricky. Publicly getting an upgrade from DD to....I am going for an A+ or an S. Well goodbye." I dash toward him and now I am basically invisible but all anyone could see is Ricky being tossed around the room like he was a living mannequin. I throw him in the air. "I call it....Dapperblaster." An electric beam is building in his hand quickly. I jump to get a hard hit in. "Finisher! Dapperblaster Mark I!" A giant flash of light overcomes the field. I land safely and smile. "That's the power I have with-----oh. You didn't get knocked out." Ricky walks toward me looking pissed off. "You.....you...." He reaches behind me but I flip back and look at him. "You don't know when to quit. Well I love ya bro, but I can't let you win." I flick him in his forehead and he is knocked out. I win the challenge. "Any takers?" I get a notification on my phone saying I am rank A+. "Haha. I am glad I could prove myself."
