2021-08-02 02:21:59Andrew 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

"Goodnight master Ryan," Greg said politely.Ryan nodded curtly."Night."Ryan shut the door to his room quietly. He walked over to the adjacent door and opened it. The cool night air hit him as he stepped into the small balcony.He held the rim and looked at the serene vast land of his estate that stared at him.He could make out the lake where it stood on the property. The swans would gather at spring; they always did.The weeping willows that were far off seemed weepier that day.The green house already had the flowers in it blooming. But the roses were planted separately as a personal garden where only roses grew.Though they were of different kinds and in a variety of colors.Rita's favorite had been the white ones. She'd hang them in her hair all the time.Ryan looked down at the fountain that was decorated with statues of horses that were a few feet below his balcony.He closed his eyes and opened th

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.

"Silverstin?!" Suzanne quipped, amazed.The guy that stood before them was the hero league's best student. It was rumored that he had worked for Shades for a while but his power was too much for them to contain and in order not for him to be eaten up by darkness he was sent back to the hero league since they'd assumed being around his mates would bring out his positive side.Nothing changed.He was the most popular hero. Even new born babies knew his name.But he was rumored to be strict and rules-abiding. He also didn't do anything fun.He was a Rolex. His powers weren't fully known yet but so far, he could turn people within a sixty mile radius into ice. He mainly dealt with ice-based things.When he was still a kid, about three different series of painful experiments were run on him by his dad, who worked for the rogue heroes.He later

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

"Hey guys! Morning!" Ashley said sweetly as she walked up to Ryan and Andrew. As usual Andrew had been first to arrive, then Ryan came not too long after."Ashley," Andrew nodded curtly at her then resumed his typing. Ryan just turned away.She slid into a chair unbothered. They were in the the school waiting room. Ashley zipped open her bag and started looking for something.Just then Ethan walked in."Oy! Good morning everyone!" he said cheerfully as he sat beside Ryan. "Ethan," Andrew said curtly and resumed his typing. Ryan just grunted in response."Hey! Morning Ethan," Ashley beamed at him."Whatcha got there?" Ethan asked curiously as she yanked out a box from her bag. "I brought cookies for everyone," Ashley annouced."Really?!" Ethan's eyes widened.Ashley nodded.She passed him a smaller

"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

Ethan banged his head on the table."Two minutes left class," Mr Damien, the mathematics teacher annouced.Ethan turned to spy on the answers of the person who sat on the seat near his.Ava was already done and she was firing spit pellets at a sleeping Jake.Ethan only got the answers to number 1 when the girl covered her papers as she rested her head on them.Which kind of teacher drills his student on his first day?! Ethan complained inwardly."One minute left," Mr Damien announced again.Ethan raised his hand."Could I use the bathroom?" he asked."You can, but you will submit your paper before you leave," the teacher told him like he knew what Ethan was up to.Ethan groaned and slouched on his chair."Submit," Mr Damien said and there was a shuffling o

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

Andrew walked to the window and looked out of it. He wasn't seeing the scene before him but the scene of what happened eight years ago."Big brother," Andrew raced into Asher's room.Asher was packing his bag. His Squad, Squad 7 were supposed to supervise some kids camping in the woods. Asher faced his younger brother with a smile. "Andrew, what's up Champ?" He grinned. Andrew plopped down on his brother's single bed.Andrew made a face. "Are you really going on the camping trip? Why don't you just stay home with me?" Andrew asked with a small pout. Asher laughed. Andrew always acted differently when they were alone, freer. But when with his mates or other outsiders he tends to be curt and reserved.

Suzanne groaned and kept her head on the desk.Ethan curiously peered at her, leaning over in the process to see her face as she had the back of her head turned to him."Suzanne?" Ethan called.They were all locked in a class as Aiden had given them all a time-out when he caught them stalking him.He was standing behind the classroom door waiting for the time he would release them.Ashley walked to the window.Even though they were being punished she was satisfied she had found out the true identity of the girl.She was Aiden's girlfriend.Ryan glared at Ashley angrily.He on the other hand wasn't happy about being punished by Aiden. Apart from the fact that he was their CIN, he was also a sort of elder brother to him."I'm really disappointed in all of you. Especially you

The doorbell of Suzanne's house rang.Shane who was eating chips while watching some football as it was Saturday groaned as the doorbell rang again."Go away!" He yelled.He didn't want to get up and open the door, he couldn't even get up to grab the remote to change the channel away from the sports channel he kept.He felt like watching documentary but due to his laziness he refused to get off the futon he laid on.Though the remote was on the center table he was too lazy to reach for it.He had a huge bag of chips opened beside him and a can of malt by the futon on the floor where he could easily reach it. A pizza box was lying on the futon as well.The doorbell rang again.Shane groaned aloud.He and Suzanne were the only ones around as their parents had earlier gone to a couple’s program and they were

"Hey Suzanne!" Annabelle rushed to Suzanne's desk.Suzanne kept her books inside her bag."Let's go home, I'm ready," Suzanne said looking at her."No..., no time for that! C'mon! Let's go quickly before it's all filled up!" Annabelle said breathlessly and grabbed Suzanne's wrist and yanked her out of their classroom.Annabelle ran across the hallway, pulling Suzanne along.The hallway was unusally crowded as people were headed the same direction as Annabelle.Annabelle roughly shoved some people aside as she made her way through until they got to the front.It was rowdy as lots of people were yelling at each other, shoving themselves as they held their pens.What's happening? Suzanne wondered with wide eyes as she saw Ethan holding a fistful of someone's cloth angrily. A senior that was in C-rank was t

The boat docked.The water had really been the fastest route they could take.The port was extremely busy as people walked up and down, boarding huge ships while some well built men hauled huge vessels into their containers."We've arrived at civilization," Ryan said pleased.Their boat struck dry land making them all jolt forward.Ethan was the first to jump out of the boat, unto the white sandy beach.Some people threw them curious stares but that was it, they still went on about on their way.Simply because this was Herotapolis, and weird things happened so it wasn't a strange sight to see five teenage kids jumping out of a rickety boat.Andrew had smartly advised them to put on the clothes they had on when Aiden left them off in the jungle.In this way they all had their code colors on, along

"Dude, you're pissing me off!" Suzanne growled at Andrew."You shouldn't be a klutz," he replied in a cool tone, not at all fazed by her temper."It was an accident!" She yelled at him."Maybe you should work on controlling your body movements, like you need to work on controlling your tongue," Andrew told her curtly and turned back.He glanced at the broken pieces of the clay bowls Suzanne ought to have brought out where they were all camped outside around the fire before he started walking out of the kitchen."How about this for control?!" Suzanne hissed as she grabbed a nearby small pot holding water and hurled it at Andrew's head but he simply moved to the left without looking back and she missed her target.The pot connected to the wall beside the entrance to the kitchen.Ryan who was coming to check what was taking th

Suzanne opened her eyes. It was already morning.Ashley and everyone else were already up and they were all in the room, except Andrew."Hey guys," Suzanne said as she got up."Suzanne!" Ethan cheerfully turned her way.Ryan just scoffed and crossed his arms. "I thought you were never going to wake up.""Good morning," Ashley smiled at her."Alright! Let's go get some breakfast! I'm starving!" Ethan said."Thankfully we should have some meat from your hunt yesterday," Ashley told Ethan.Ryan frowned slightly, "But we'll have to be lighting up the fire and fanning up the flames again. All that work.""It's a good thing we start early then," Suzanne said and they all walked towards the kitchen."Yeah, and then we'll do something about having a small bathroom and maybe some cloth

Suzanne sat up in her leafy hammock.Andrew had made a hammock each for everyone to sleep on out of broad leaves and some strong vines that were lying around.Of course Ryan had made a fuss about sleeping on a hammock made out of leaves but Ashley piled all their jackets and coats on his own hammock so that he could be comfortable.Ethan had yelled about Ryan being a brat and Ashley shared some cheery story about her childhood as they sat round the fire, before they all retired to sleep.Suzanne rubbed her eyes and she glanced out of the small square window. It was still dark.I wonder what time it is. She said and adjusted herself on her hammock. Her eyes roamed round her sleeping teammates.Ethan was snoring loudly and one of his arms was swinging out of his hammock. She rolled her eyes at his sleeping figure.She got up softly

"CIN really left us here?!" Suzanne shrieked, horrified."No, we thought he left us in our cozy bedrooms and he went back to bring us breakfast in bed," Ryan snorted."You better shut up now!" Suzanne snapped at him."Or what?" He scoffed.Suzanne's nostrils flared.Some minutes later he was yelling that she should let go of his ear that she was twisting around."That's enough," Andrew bored voice made Suzanne let him go.Ethan smiled snidely at Ryan who was rubbing his ear painfully."I suggest we just follow the path!" Ethan said.Andrew who had bent down, stood straight. "No. That's useless. I was awake while CIN was driving. There's too many turns and we can get lost," he told Ethan."What now?" Suzanne moaned.Ashley glanced at her wristwatch.
