1. it's no fun flying

It must scare people when I save them. I have this thing were I swoop in out of no where and sweep people off their feet. Not that I do it for the thrill....its no fun for me. Last week I got slapped continuously by this old lady I saved from being mowed to death by one of crusher's tanks.
Do people intentionally make my work harder for me?
I don't know.
Still when my nemesis' show up is when the civilians choose to act out. It really makes my job hard.

I am Steel. I am a hero. I won't add super before it. It takes a certain grade of fame to be a super hero. Sure, you're asking isn't it your powers that makes you super?
Frankly, I don't know. Still, I'd like to be refred to as Steel, a.k.a Tucker Langston, hero.
My powers include flight(which isn't as wonderful as everyone thinks it is), super strenght and a density of 2.5. I'm as hard as diamond.
I wish some one had thrown speed in there too.
I still have to use the bus, flying is an uncomfortable option.
I have four nemesis'.  Dark Raven, darkstar, crusher and Barry Avery.
I respect Barry out of all of them. He didn't choose some lame ass name for his alter ego......he is his alter ego. The worse Barry has ever done is rob all the banks in Mevil city all at once. When you look at it, Barry is a realist. Why would you want to take over the world or any were at all.  You would just end up with the problem of settling wars and being a sole diplomat to doesens of different kinds of people who don't like each others guts. Whether or not youre an evil war lord.....no one wants to see the human race die out with war, starvation and hunger.
So why not think big in small packages, like Barry. He had sucessfully gotten away with robbing a whole city. I couldn't do a thing about it because it was out of my should I say protection zone.
Barry is basically one of those telekinesis guys.
Dark raven and her idiotic brother, darkstar a hell bent on taking over the worlds top bussines corporations. They dream big.....stupid big.
They also love causing international problems......they are basically psyco.
What kind of people actually spend billions of dollars to launch a sattelite network into space. One that looks like Chinese tech, but is spying on the Saudis and Israelis so it looks like it belongs to the US. Then for no apparent reason, rat out this network to every intelligence organisation and have them wrecking the sattelite with their shitty software and fighting diplomatically. You've just wasted money all to get countries to quarrel and later make up. Although later on every one starts to stock up on nuclear war heads and the talk of war isn't to far off.......still I wouldn't waste all that money.
I don't blame them. That's what happens when your run about six different corporate empires.
Dark raven and darkstar are cukoo and pretty much stuffed with dark matter a.k.a ante matter after some freak accident tossed them into a parallel reality.
Crusher is a really deranged person who used to be an army general. He was a mutant before he was crazy, but one night he made a decision that caused the wipe out of a small town. He'd made other minor mistakes before that but that one made him snap and he well just became the crusher. A dude who turns into this huge red monster when he is mad and drives a tank.

The life of a hero is no fun actually. Flying is no fun. Of course I can still feel the gravitational pull of the earth its even stronger when you fly. There's no solid ground or force propelling you through the air. You have to use your own energy to propel your self.
All you people studying physics in school, should know that the movies make superman's flight look too easy. There's the thing of gathering enough potential energy by taking a proper position, then there's the pushing up and reaching the escape velocity and then there's the staying in the air which is a lot harder than it looks.
As a hero I have to have a secret identity. Typical.
Tucker is an actor. No seriously.
I'm huge. It's sickening I know. I should have one life in the lime light and the other taking a back seat.....to balance me out. I love attention, no doubt about it. Still if you think about it no one gonna suspect a pretty faced play boy to be a hero. Of course I usually star in super hero movies, but every one knows the computers do more work than the performers in such cases.

Ever wonder how we get our powers? Now that's a story for another day, because now I'm  in the middle of something.

Maston, is my city and the towns around it, are my towns. Right now I am battling with Barry's craziest stunt yet. An epidemic.

It's a genetical mutation to be exact.
For about three months, supers powered mutants have been poping up out of no where. Last month, the mayors son got super powers......last week, he died. The mutations alter a series of genetical structure as well as change the chemical  and phsical structure of humans. So many people are turning up super powered and dying suddenly.
As I studied, I found that our bodies change in ways that would take our brains eons to adapt to and so the brain shuts down after a while.

Every kids dream has turned into a night mare.
