Dwight Scott was not looking to be a hero ….

… He was looking to be a man

This is the eight 0’clock news and I am Bob Clock. Tonight, it is very

important that everyone throughout New York City gets in their homes and locks the doors by right around now. There are

criminals, pesticides, stalkers all crawling around the neighborhood

in every area of the city. Everyone, please, for your own safety, stay inside tonight and

lock your doors.

Thanks to a leak of information that got out all around the city, there are mobsters, criminals, pesticides, stalkers, creepers, freaks, killers, thugs, all hitting the streets tonight.

And watch out for the Impactor. With the wave of crime that is breaking out tonight, he or she is sure to be a part of it. The Impactor is a super hero turned to a criminal who went out to stop the bullies only to become a bully himself. He too, if our predictions are correct, is set to be hitting the streets tonight.

This has been the eight 0’clock news. I am Bob Clock.

That was back at around eight if it was not terribly obvious. Then nine went by. Then it was ten 0’clock. Sounds of crime had been going by outside of my college window around nine 0’clock. By ten I had finished my paper and it was time to go out and fight some crime. This time, I was not fighting crime just for the justification of my early childhood trouble. This time, I was fighting for the city around me.

A lot of bullies were out looking for me. A lot of bullies were waiting for me to come to them and take me out in order to keep me out of their plans. Also, the heroes were waiting for me to get in their way too. Both the good guys and the bad guys were out there and there I was trying not to collide with either of them. With everyone on the street being either a hero, a crook or a cop, I was in a maze, a maze with which I was provided just one way out.

This Is Going To Be An Awesome Bust!!

What??

Fight Scene

Wait! Wait! I mean you no harm, Acro Boy! I am the

Impactor and I mean no evil! If you are the superhero I

believe you are, then you will listen to me, you will hear me

out, please. Please!

This could be a trap…. But I am listening.

I explained to him my situation. He explained his to me. It turns out that he too was bullied. He was fighting as a super hero for a year and he was out there fighting as a super hero not to get revenge, no revenge, just for justice. His bullying did not anger him into being a super hero. He was outcast for all of his school days, and then got bullied really hard during his freshman year in high school. He was a sophomore in high school when I was talking to him. Such a good kid and here I was going to hurt him. Of course, it was because he tried to bash my head in, but still. He spread to word that I was good, the word spread fast, and other heroes started to leave me alone. He even showed me a secret hiding place where I could get some rest, which I did at around a little after midnight. I got back up by two in the mourning and went out to fight some more crime in the night.

Being Relaxed Felt Great!!

Now To See Who Else I Can

Bust!!

Where Are Those Screams Coming From ??

As my adrenaline continued to rush, I heard some more yelling and I rounded another corner. There was a group of men all wearing matching costumes including matching masks and hoods and capes all kicking a man on the ground.

Release The Man At Once!

Then All Four Of Them Came At Me

Macing Them Didn’t Work

Beating On Them Didn’t Work

BEAT DOWN Scene

Destroy Him, My Loyal-Men!

Yes My Master!

Wow, so the Legion of Super Heroes was ready to bring me to justice at 10 0’Clock last night and at 2 0’Clock this mourning; they were bringing justice to me.

Not Hearing The Comments You See On The Left, I Crawled Into The Next Building.

Leave My Loyal-Men Alone! Leave My Loyal-Men Alone! Aw, Screw It. I Will Go After Him Myself

Chase Scene With Explosions

Soon, I entered the building right next to me. It turns out that we were fighting right outside the gymnasium at my school. I crawled inside because I knew that there would be an infirmary in there and I could get some stuff I needed to heel up. As I entered the gymnasium, using my key that I luckily had on me, I opened up the cabinet in the infirmary to start applying medicine on my wounds. Before I could choose which medicine I wanted to use, I started hearing cries from another room nearby. The cries were louder than what the criminals and the victims were yelling out on the street. The cries were louder. It sounded like a large group of people were calling out for help.
