Chapter 6 by Ultra Bra Ultra Bra

What to do with these super powers?

Fight crime

Yes! Honor, power, responsibility! These ideals that you've worshipped all your life, but never could attain through an existence of mediocrity, are now at your fingertips. You are unstoppable.

Flying up again to view the city from the bird's eye view, you can see there's a bank robbery going on two miles away. What an ideal situation to show off your power to the world!

Three masked, armed men are holding hostages at the central bank. Even from here, at the ruins of your former home, you can hear them speak clearly. Even their accelerated heartbeats fail to elude your super ears. This will be laughably easy.

Within half a second you've flown to the bank, grabbed the robbers' guns, mushed them to a featureless steel lump with your hands, formed the same steel lump into four pairs of handcuffs and cuffed each of the men.

Robber 1: "What the... what gives, where's my cuete?"

One of the men notices you.

Robber 2: "An' who the fuck's you supposed to be, eh? Halloween's not for two weeks."

You turn around to face the helpless criminal. Now would be a good time to come up with a pseudonym. Thankfully your super speed extends to your brains - you have time aplenty to make your choice. But fuck if all the good titles haven't been stolen by comic books.

Sophie: "Watch your tongue, pal. You're speaking with the one and only Herculass!"

Robber 3: "(W'that's a stupid name.)

Sophie: "I heard that! And never mind what my name is, you guys are so going down. You've got no guns and I've chained you up alredy."

Lightning-fast, you extend your arm for the throat of the first guy, who was sneaking up behind you trying to strangle you with his chains.

Robber 1: "Uh! H-Have mercy!"

Sophie: "Uh-wah wah, have mercy. That's what you sound like, you piece of shit. I-"

You then see that all of the hostages are still present. Terrified and confused, but perfectly fine otherwise. Among the hostages are kids, and you realize that this might be a bit of a Non-PG show you're putting up.

Sophie: "Oh. Haha, sorry didn't really pay attention there. Yeah you're all gonna be fine, I'm a superhero, see? Yeah, just gonna tug all of these crooks away."

As you walk away, pulling along the three criminals by the cuffs of their shirts, you sneer back at them and whisper from between your teeth:

Sophie: "(You sick fucks oughta feel lucky there were children present. If I'd had my way, none of you could ever walk again.)"

The police outside are confused. One moment there was a sonic boom and a horrific metallic screech, the next they've lost visual contact with the bank robbers. Was there some sort of an explosion? Are the hostages alright?

The next moment, a stunningly beautiful woman seemingly in her pajamas emerges from the bank, carrying the three robbers.

Sophie: "It's alright, I diffused the sit- HOLD UP THERE!"

Panic rears its head as the police believe for a second that the robbers are making a last stand. You are **** to catch the ensuing onslaught of bullets mid-air with your hands to prevent any casualities.

Sophie: "Stop shooting! Look I've got the perps right here tied up, and I'm sorry for startling you."

The one-sided firefight ceases. Police regain control of the robbers and hostages, and begin the bureaucratic processes. You are questioned. After explaining what happened to you today and showcasing your powers, the police determine that even if they had legitimate concerns to arrest you, they would be wildly unprepared to do so.

Sophie: "Another day saved! Or now that I think, it's only 9:50AM, I could still do loads."

What will your next mission be?
