All Chapters of Human Kid: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Andrew looked away as his dad fixed a rather harsh gaze on him."You're late," he repeated, but with a more controlled tone than before."By two seconds," Andrew said."Do you know how precious each second is? In just a second you could save a life! And you are a hero in the making, yet you think two seconds means nothing?!" his dad's nostrils swelled up.Just then Andrew's mother came into the living room.Andrew stood some feet near the door but he backed it. He faced his dad who stood beside a chair that faced the door. He had been timing Andrew's arrival.Andrew at once looked in his mother's direction.He hadn't seen her come in but the orange fragrance of the perfume she usually wore filled the room.She approached her husband."That's enough now," she said with a note of finality.Just as his dad was cooling down, Andrew's next remark made him blow his top again."It's just two seconds," Andrew's eye

Recap of part 1; "Can we not do this now?" Suzanne said as she put her spoon down.She was trying to eat her cereal in peace but her parents, especially her dad, were lecturing her on how to behave once she gets to Superhero high. Shane laughed from where he sat. "You mean they shouldn't lecture you on being a complete disappointment like you are?" he asked and laughed again. "Shut up Shane!"  She snarled at him. In a mild way it was true. Suzanne O'Izzy was just an average kid, a clumsy kinda girl with big dreams. She wants to be the hero everyone looks up to so badly. Luckily in her country, Herotapolis, there was an organization, Hero League, that could make her dream come true but first she and the others who are vying to be heroes have to go through a test known as the Thriox which consists of three tests.

Squad 10 had different expressions on their faces as they got an earful from a very annoyed Aiden.   Ryan couldn't stop with the cold scowl while Suzanne looked perpelexed. Ethan was more annoyed at Ryan being able to do something while he laid there getting captured than he was at Aiden for his mouthful scoldings. Andrew was just...well you guessed it, bored!   "That was a complete fail!" Aiden repeated.   Suzanne bowed her head, a bit ashamed.   Aiden paced around while the four stood watching him. "You didn't even attempt to work as a team! Just like the last time, you all ran off on your own!"   "So this was about team work?" Ryan asked in his usual tone. A glare sent his way from Aiden was enough to make him look away.   "You were too easy to predict!" Aiden stated.   "I'm disappointed in all of you," Aiden said. "Anyway what was I t

"Here I am! Class 4D!" Ethan announced, "And look, Jake's in my class also. Man, Ava too." Ashley turned to Andrew, "Seems we're both in 4A." "I guess," Andrew replied in a nonchalant way. "I'm in 4E! And so is Annabelle! Urgh!" Suzanne was rather disgusted. "Do you know anyone other than Andrew in class 4A?" Ryan asked Ashley. She scanned through the list again. "Yeah, Janet and Edward are also in our class," she nodded. "Why am I stuck with Annabelle?!" Suzanne said in an annoyed tone. "None of us are in class 4C," Ethan observed. "Alright, since we all know our main classes let's check our time table," Andrew said and switched to the time table of class 4A. "We're having Languages first," Ashley said, turning to Andrew. Andrew nodded and switched to class 4B. Ryan scanned the list and groaned. "Great! Just when I t

Ashley parked her bike in a compound surrounded by a low fence. She got the spare key from under the mat and unlocked the door. "I'm home," she said to the empty house and laughed. She remembered her small sister would still be at school and her uncle would have gone to get some fertilizers from a distant shop. She walked with great effort and entered her room. She sank on the bed and grabbed a picture frame that was on her bedside table. A man with lush curly blond hair was clothed in a black suit but he kept his tie over an eye like a one-eyed pirate and he had on a goofy look as the girl he tickled in his arms had her eyes closed and her mouth wide open in childish laughter. They were both seated on a picnic blanket beside a small stream and a woman with long black hair had her arms thrown around the man in a loving gesture. Ashley smi
