Heroes Legion: Year One: Ep: 2: The Made-Men

Chapter 1: M-Ray Exposure!

Abraham Lincoln High School, 7:00 Pm, July 23rd 2013

Martin beck wasn't your average school goer; in fact, he was the kind of school goer that others would avoid.

He was a punk, a rebel, and he didn't like many people.

He was always getting in trouble, bullying students of the school, breaking into lockers and the like.

But before going "home", he was approached on his way back by a man in the shadows.

He told him to meet him with other "delinquents" he had recruited in the school, at the area behind the school at night.

Said that he would give him and the other delinquents the power to "get even" with their "Tormentors".

He found that promise too much of a good thing to pass off.

This was New York; maybe he was a dealer trying to push guns onto the streets.

He found himself among six other delinquents, all of whom he had heard about around school but only two he could really saw he knew.

Julie Roberts: Bully and Locker thief, and the girl that he had been seeing behind his "Parents" backs.

Sean Ivor: Hustler and graffiti artist

After a bit of greeting and asking one another on what their mystery host had gathered them for, they all found out that all of the had been told the same "bunk"!

Then their host emerged from the shadows and to their surprise floated down toward them.

"Holy cow..." One of the unnamed Delinquents declared, "That's quite a trick!"

"What is this, some kind of David Copperfield thing?" Julie Roberts asked in surprise.

"This is no magic trick my dear..." Meta-master said courteously, "I have just demonstrated the power of Telekinesis, a power that I have possession over. I am what you humans call a super-human."

"Bull. I don't know what your game is man. But if you don't tell me what you brought us all for I'll show you a little trick of mine!" Martin Beck threatened.

"If you're talking about the pocket knife in your jacket, don't bother...knives can turn against their owners in my presence"

"How did you...?" Martin Beck asked in surprise.

"Your minds are an open book to me, you're undisciplined..." Meta-Master explained, "And that's why I chose you out of all the students in this school. You're intrigued and frightened by my power...you shouldn't be, because I can give you power of your own."

"What's your game man?" asked Sean.

"No game..." Meta-Master assured, "I just want to give you "Children" you proper place in the world"

Meta-Master reached into his cloaks pouch, and pulled out a glowing blue Crystal formation.

"What the heck is that!?" asked one of the other delinquents.

"this...is the first step to power...true power" Meta-Master explained, "the power to crush all who stand in your way to getting what you want, and revenge on all of your "oppressors"...all you need to do is touch it"

Everyone present looked at one another, and then gave into the temptation....each of them wanted power to get what they wanted, and they all weren't one to miss golden opportunity's when the smelled one.

Martin Beck on the other hand, he wanted the "crushing" part of the deal this screwball was offering with his "Magic" crystal thingy.

One by one the delinquents touched the Glowing Blue Crystal, nothing happened.
