If superheroes aren't real, then who the hell is that masked man standing on my balcony?
We all grew up hearing stories at bedtime. For the boys—superhuman men flying around in jumpsuits and saving the world from dastardly villains. For the girls—princesses locked away in towers awaiting their prince charming and his mighty steed. I was a girl, so I should have liked the princess stories, but I was a bit different.

Superman, Spiderman, Batman—they all fascinated me to no end. I would run around my house with a bed-sheet tied around my neck, zapping away the evil dust bunnies with my laser vision. I didn't want to sit around all day waiting to be saved. I wanted to be the one doing the saving.

And now I understood that those stories were complete bull. I was a wretch living in one of the slave cities of the nation, and I had no freedom, no happiness. No future.

I was the damsel in distress. I was the one waiting to be saved. But superheroes didn't exist, and no one would have ever swooped down from the sky and saved the day.

At least, I used to think that. Until I saw the mask.

  • i <3 you , this is awesome. 

  • I like you :P Completely random but if I knew you in real life we would be friends xD 

  • I have a feeling like I know how its gonna end. And I Hope I'm right because that would be a really good ending well kinda I guess it seems a little cheesy now.

  • You're a really great reviewer and completely hilarious as well! Good job! I was just wondering how you choose the stories you review? By personal choice...recommendation...top fives? Just wondering. :)

  • wait, im sorry. your hair. its just looks so...amazingly soft and bouncy i couldnt pay attention to anything else

  • Hahaha definitely random makeout sessions and 'omnomnom'ing on each other! I think Ellie has stepped up to save herself already, like when she breaks the soldiers nose but I really like the idea of switching roles with SuperHero(I wish we knew his name!) and saving the day! I really like how Yuffie puts in the mumbo jumbo that goes along with Ellie's super brain haha

    BTW you're really funny!
