You Too Can Be A Hero Novels & Stories

“You say that like it’s a bad thing.” Baron commented, observing my facial expression. I shrugged. “The big, bad heroes in my life have come to save the day. Five against one, what chance do I have?” “The heroes in your life, huh?” Zach pointed out, a happy smile slowly creeping its way into his face.

“Hahaha, you’re crazy. Wait, I thought you and Kai were a thing.” I waved my hand dismissively. “I told you before, Kai and I are just friends. He’s too good for me. Kai is like… the hero of the story. But I don’t want a hero, Amelia. I want a villain.” Her frown deepened. “I don’t get it. What does a hero and a villain have to do with this? And beside Everyone wants a hero.” I smirked, leaning closer. “Okay, let me explain it in simple terms. If there are only two options, save me or save the whole world while I die, what do you think a hero would pick?”

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it. ~Maya Angelou Lyra. I hated this gathering, I hated that I was forced to socialize with strangers and most importantly I hated having to have been pulled out of my comfortable bed despite not feeling too well. All three of them knew I was unwell but still made me attend anyways, they claimed that if I could handle hours of school then I could do the same here, after all it was only going to last a few hours.

"Well, thanks to you, he can't hurt anyone anymore. You're basically a hero." "No, I'm just doing my job. Keeping people safe is what I do, remember?" "I know. But you could have sent him to prison. And the fact that you did what you needed to, even if it would be frowned upon by some, is really awesome. It says a lot about the ty[pe of person you are." He laughed, "Careful, you're making me get a big ego here." "It's the truth. You need to take the much-needed credit for the amazing, great work you've done." I was laying it on too thick, even to my own ears it sounded like too much.

Her heart softened. ‘Awww, they’re really too adorable for this cruel world.’ She reached out and stroked Suzy’s head gently. “Don’t worry, you three. It’s not my blood. I’m fine—really. The ones who needed a beating are the ones who got it.” Tubby’s face lit up. “You were amazing, Erella! You were like—like a superhero!” “Yeah!” Eddy jumped up, mimicking her punches and gusts of magic. “You should’ve seen yourself! Whoosh! Bam! Just like that!”

“Walk away while you still can.” The guy looked back at his men and burst into laughter. “Dude, are you blind or something? Do you not know how to count? There are three of us and just you, so stop trying to act all tough.” “That is right, man! Don't try to be a hero. Heroes die.” One of the other guys supported, flexing his muscles by folding his arms.

“I get it. But sometimes, you’re so far ahead of everyone else, Hero, it’s like you’re competing against yourself. Take it easy every now and then.” Hero chuckled, scratching the back of his neck. “I guess so. But there’s just something about the thrill of learning… it makes me feel alive.” She glanced at him, her eyes understanding. “Just remember that it’s okay to rest too. You’ll reach your goals, Hero. Don’t worry so much.”

“There’s a reason behind it. The people they’re after are my helper. They once helped me and now is the time to pay them back. Letting them capture them is the same as feeding my helpers with poison. And what will that make me?” Mia loosened her hands from her chest and paced closer to Ala. She placed her hand on his shoulder and persuaded him. “That won’t make you a bad person. It will make you a hero, Ala. It’s difficult, but you don’t have to force yourself to go against your will on in the name of being a good guy to bad people. They don’t deserve you being on the same side as you,”

“I'm going to be super-Ruby! And I’m going to help Dad keep everyone safe!” “Wow, super-Ruby! What about you, Rory? Are you going to be the team’s superhero too?” Rory looked thoughtful for a moment. “I... I'm going to be the hero who helps everyone. I will give advice and show that we don't need to be afraid. Because with you two, we’ll be fine.” I looked at him with a proud smile. “You are the hero of the mind, then. The hero of wisdom. I love it, Rory! And you know what else? With all of you here, I know we'll be okay. Together, we are unbeatable.”

"What if I'd gotten the angle wrong? What if the portals hadn't worked? What if—" "But they did work," Ollie interrupted, reaching over to squeeze my hand. "You saved Uncle Thorne and Marcus and everyone. You're a hero." "I'm not a hero," I protested. "I'm five." "You can be both," Riley said matter-of-factly. "Age doesn't determine heroism. Action does. You took action when others were in danger. That's definitionally heroic." I poked at my cereal, watching the pieces float in the milk. Yesterday had been so weird. One minute I was in bed, the next the lights went out, and then I heard shouting from the basement.
