"You lived long enough to be the villain,but you're still going to die a hero."
I saw the bullet coming towards the young hero, Res, and knew I couldn't let it hit her. I went into the villain quarter because of the Council of Heroes politics but Res just wanted to do whats right. I couldn't see her get hurt.
So I took the jump. At first I didn't feel anything. then all of a sudden I doubled over, not able to breathe. I fell over and began coughing up blood.
My old friend , Vern, came running towards me as my breathe came in raspy gasps.
"Im sorry," I gulped as I began throwing up blood.
"Shhh," Vern began tearing up, "You lived long enough to be the villain, but you're still going to die a hero."
"Thank-you," I gasped .
The darkness began creeping into my vision ,growing with every breathe until I slipped into the after life. I looked back to see Vern crying and the heroes and villains alike gazing at my corpse. Everyone sadden. I said ," Goodbye, my friends," as I was taken to my home for eternity.
