  • Chapter 21, chapter 19: novice hero

John gets dubbed " novice hero in training" and afterward, a earthquake happens



"john" water guy said after they came back to the hideout to eat, it was pizza "in the past week you have faced many perils, you have faced a jungle, without being told what was going on, you have finished a corrupted maze, seen what real hero's do, although it is your first week, it seems like forever, i think we will all agree you have proven that you are in indeed, a descendant of Upper Boy, so I hereby dub you "novice hero in training" speed " which means you are almost half way there, you will get new clothes and new rules" water guy said "yes, but with more power, comes more responsibility, most HOTU have failed to become hero's because they could not handle the responsibility, do you understand that John" John shook his head yes"alright then, dig in" water guy said

30 minutes later, John went into his room to try on his new outfit, it was red all around, with a belt and a cape that was red as well and had the words "NHOT" which properly spelt out novice hero of training. it was cool at best. but he couldnt get rid of the feeling he needed a hero name, why now, he didn't know." there is names that define all of us" water guy said in the living room when he asked about it " you just need to look in your heart and figure out" so John paced a couple of times in his room, he knew it began with a U because of the hint the fire figure gave him.
he thought he figure out later and go to bed.

the next day was Sunday. A relaxing day. John got up, put on his outfit(cause it was cool, and felt good on him) and ate breakfast. he was writing down names while writing, hoping he might right the one that sounded to him. names like U boy, u ran
upman, uppercut man, unknown man, etc

he was so, he knew it. just a couple of more words and he had it "what are you doing" water guy asked "trying to figure out my name" he said "your name is John" he said. "no my hero name, it has to be something that i know, something that makes sense" he told him "let me tell you something, a name doesn't make a hero, nor the cape or his abilities, but what he does" he said, john asked "how do you figure" he replied"A true hero doesn't depend on his powers, or clothes, he relies on his skill and friends, anyone can be a hero, its all up to them to do the right thing, and when the times comes, you will have that choice, remember that, and your hero name will come to you eventuality" with that he disappeared. John was still confused as ever to what his hero name could be.he wrote down the first name of his father hero name "upper" that had to me something to him, like it was some first part to the hero name, so he tried stuff at the end like Pal, Kid, J, and lad, then he knew it, it had been right in front of him, he crumble that paper up and got a new one, wrote the name in big letters it now read "UpperMan" this was it!! he thought to himself, now all he had to do is to make them agree with his name, but as predicted, something happened, the earth shaked, like a bombing of some sort. "what the hell was that" speeds voice yelled out of nowhere "everyone get to the stairs" water guy said, so John ran as fast as he could "you ready for this kid" shadow said as they all were at the entrance of the stairs, which was right next to the elevator, he never noticed that door. "OK, lets get up there and see whats going on" water guy said as he flew up the stairs "wait we never got to this point in my training" John yelled "well looks like we have to make this quick, just picture yourself jumping and then flying, then just do it" shadow said"will meet you on the ground floor" he said as both flew off. John could still hear the sounds of the earthquake, he didn't know what to do "well here goes nothing" he said as he pictured himself flying, then he jumped straight off the floor, he was flying "am flying am FLYING" he said as he opened his eyes with excitement he flew faster and hit the roof. "what was that" speed said at the entrance of the top floor. " oh no, he overdid it, we got to find him." waterguy said.
