It all began again as I tried to explain to my director what the hell had just happened. But let's start from the beginning again. Back on the year we were born because that's how it all started. The 8 of us born on the 7th hour of October 1st 1989. Each scene that they bring this up is someone knew. This time it was Vanya's boyfriend Leonard he was born on the same day as us at the same time but he didn't have powers. As the baby nurse person hands him to his father. 

There were smiles all around. The baby was born healthy although ordinary. But the child's upbringing just like the rest of us was anything but and his pregnancy was also normal. But his mother passed away after giving birth to him. But this child's name was Harold. As he grew up he had these action figures of the rest of the gang. And would play with them like little toys. He was obsessed with TUA just like everyone else at that time had been. He must've been as lonely as Vanya and I when we were growing up except he was an only child.

His father came in and started yelling at him to put his stupid dolls away and get him a beer. Perhaps this was some kind of origin story of how he became who he is now. And he wanted him to be quick about it. So Harold went into fridge and got the beer but he stopped to look at something. He picked up one of their comic books and saw the action figures on the back. Hurry up! He father yelled while Harold flipped through it. And when his dad came in he hit him. Once he went to his room he was in tears and was cutting things out to make himself his very own TUA uniform and mask. He wanted to be just like us. But if you were us you wouldn't want to be. Our life wasn't exactly great after all. None us had great lives but they got to be superheroes and Vanya and I were nothing. I was never good enough for my father. One day he ran away from home to try and be adopted into our so called family. There were barricade things up to keep fans back from our so called house. People had signs and saying they loved them. Harold put his suitcase down on the other side of blue blocking device thing. He watched them get out of the limo as it pulled up to the house. And they began to go inside.

He hopped over it grabbing Allison's arm. They were all in a perfect line coming into the house when he stopped to tell them he was their biggest fan. But Luther turned to him and told him he wasn't supposed to be in there. And dad yelled at Harold to get behind barricade thing. But then he walked up to Harold and he said he was born on the same day as the rest of us. He said he thought that meant he was like us even if he didn't know what his power was. Just because you were born on that day doesn't always mean you were one of the select few with powers. As he didn't have any. My aunt IRL she was born on that day too she doesn't have magic powers. He hoped with dad's help maybe they could figure out what his power was. But he was as ordinary as Vanya and I had been taught to think we had been. Dad got right in face and told him he had no power and that he would never have any power. And told him to go home. Which was so harsh and cruel but there must've been something that told dad who had powers and who hadn't.

He begged him to let him stay because he came all that way but so did all these other people the fans watching them arrive back the house. Dad never liked being challenged and he didn't like when people didn't obey him. He was not happy at all that Harold soon Leonard wasn't listening to his commands. What's wrong pops? This boy that's not part of TUA isn't listening to you?! Awe pouty face #sorrynotsorry he thought he could control everyone and everything. But this was not his child. A little advice my boy dad said placing his hand on his shoulder. Not everyone in this world can be powerful. And that chasing something unattainable was a recipe for disappointment and resentment. How do you think Vanya and I have felt our whole lives?! So get off my property he scolded picking him up by his shirt and walking him off the property. The crowd laughed at him as he now stood by the car they arrived home in and then they cheered when he closed the gates and everyone went inside. Never meet your heroes kid they'll always disappoint you. When he went home he took one look at his action figures staring at the empty space where dad's action figure would've stood. And then his dad yelled at him to get down stairs.
