Chapter 4 - THE HERO.:

In the warehouse which is now riddled with bullet holes and cracked walls, you could see four children surrounding a man who was leaning his back on a metal beam head bowed, bald and riddled with blood and bullet holes from his head to his toes around him were several dead bodies in red jumpsuits with some of them wearing clown masks.

For all intents and purposes this bloodied man who looked to be in his 30s should be dead as dead can be but for some reason he is still alive even though he is on his last breaths. You could see bullets coming out from his hole riddled body, in an attempt to heal up the man, but unfortunately it looks like his nervous system took too much of a damaged which will end his life soon enough the only reason he is alive is because of the serum he took earlier.

He looked up from his bowing gaze with bloodied mouth to console the crying kids he first ask them "what's your names" and the kids replied "Anita", "Lilith", "Marcus", "Jessica". His reply to that was a long sigh and a satisfied smiled on his bloodied lips and said "lovely names...but promise me one thing" he leaned his head back on the metal beamed and with gurgled speeches he said " Don't.....let the worlds...darkness.....take away...your bright lights....live how you want..and treat people the way.....you want to be treated"

SFX:COUGH COUGH COUGH

After taken a long gurgled breath he continued with sharp eyes "unless they are your enemies...as you can see....the only intent....you should have...with people like that....is to eradicate them" the kids looked at the massacre around them and thought about their earlier peril, looked at each other and gave their hero a look of conviction and determination not crying anymore and in one motion as if it was rehearsed many times before that, they said "WE PROMISE!!!!!!".

Looking at the fierce look of determination in their eyes, Jacob had a content smile on his bloodied face and said in his mind {with that I can died in peace knowing that I died for a reason and that is to give the next generation a chance at a good life....AHHHH I wish I could have a sip of that expensive bourbon Malcolm gifted me whilst reading a manga or watching wu-tang movies...AHHH that will be bliss indeed}

And with that a man brilliant and compassionate in both mind and body took his last breath in this life.

A few minutes after their hero took his last breath the children hear the sounds of sirens coming from the distance and a few moments later they were rescued from the warehouse were their fates took a massive change in directions. All because of a selfless old man who risk his health to send them back to their comfortable lives.

Those four children grew up to be very successful and became cornerstones and pillars for the worlds economy, livelihood and progressed, all with the intent of fulfilling a promised that was made between them and their brave hero.

Anita grew up to be a very beautiful and remarkable woman, that is able to grasp the attention and focus of all individuals present if she steps into a room. Her conviction from many years ago helped her to be a very business savvy young lady and at the ripe age of 25 she became the owner of one of the Fortune 500 companies becoming one of the richest young entrepreneurs in the United States with a net worth of billions of dollars with charity funds and help aid being sent from her company to all over the world were people are in need of help.

Jessica was born with a lovely voice and very exceptional talent in music but because of her shy and introvert nature she was always taking advantage of and laughed at, until that encounter with her hero that changed her outlook in life. She bloom and became a very wonderful flower, becoming a world renown pop star trumping even Micheal Jackson's success in the genre, her music being capable of touching the hearts and souls of individuals all over the world, winning many awards for her achievements, and the first thing she always says when receiving any form of award is to thank her hero for giving her the courage to turn the world into her oyster.

Mark unlike the others wasn't world renown or super rich but he became the captain of the 'flying eagles special forces'. A special Ops team made by Lilith after he asked her for it with a very convincing pitch, then he became endowed with the responsibility of covertly disposing of terrorist threat both inside and outside the country. He is responsible for saving many lives but he doesn't ask for the glory or fame because he does all of that for the hero who saved him from the most frightening point of his life, all with a kind smile on his face.

Lilith on the other hand became the president of the U.S.A and damn did she reform that country and the world in general, using the influence and power that the great superpower has accumulated through out the years. One of the major things she did was to dispense the cure for cancer and aids which was being monopolies by the rich and powerful prior to her term as president, which earn her the ire of said group of people but it also gave her the support and love of the poor and weak which was 95% of the whole world becoming a living legend and an inspiration to many young and naive kids. Just like she was when she was rescued by her hero.

Meanwhile our hero is currently transversing the cosmos in his soul form for what seem like and eternity, bored out of his mind but due to his durable mental strength he didn't completely lose his mind from the complete darkness that surrounded him.

Until all of a sudden a golden flame combust from out of nowhere moving in concentric circles as far as the eye could see within the black void. Accompanying this bizarre spectacle was a booming voice that sounds neither male nor female, young nor old, it was just an ethereal voice that said. ~~YOU HAVE FINALLY ARRIVE YOUNG SOUL~~...
