Numberjacks Stories

The Not So Incredibles

Four and Five were sitting in the cosy room discussing about heroes and powers. Eight arrives and joins in with them.

Eight: Hey guys!

Four: Hello Eight, what's up? 

Eight: I heard that you have been into superheroes lately and powers. What would be your super powers? 

Four: My superpower would be super strength where I can carry anything even very heavy objects like the Numbertaker. If he tries to cause any trouble, I can throw him down. 

Five: Mine would be to stretch as far as possible, so super stretch if you would like to say. Whenever, I need to approach or get something which is far, far away I could go stretch and grab it!

Eight: I would have the power to create ice and freeze surfaces by using moisture as much as possible. 

Five: Three's one would be invisibility and protection and Six's would be super speed. 

The Numberjacks laugh.

Four: I hope we all become like this one day. You know these, Five?

Five: Oh Four, they told me. This is just saying it, we don't actually get proper powers. 

The alarm goes.

Four: We need to go now. 

Five: Bye Eight!

Four and Five finally arrived to the Control Room. 

An Agent calls in. 

Agent Thirty Nine: Agent Thirty Nine here, things are going wrong. 

Three: But not for long. 

Agent Thirty Nine: It's a team of super heroes. They have lost their superpowers and cannot fight their super villain anymore. They need your help. 

Six: Okay, Agent Thirty Nine. We will take someone out. 

Agent Thirty Nine: Thank you! 

Six: So, who's going? 

Five: Four, you seem to be into superheroes lately. 

Four: But, maybe Three should come too. 

Three: Oh yes please! Thank you! 

Three and Four head to the launcher. The launcher song is played. 

Five: Checking the room... only Jasper. 

Four is about to launch.

Five and Six: Four, Three, Two, One, Zero! 

Three is about to launch. 

Five and Six: Three, Two, One, Zero! 

Three and Four fly away and landed.

Four: Wow! Real super heroes!

Three: They seem very powerless. 

Mr. Incredible: Yes, that's us! (boringly) 

Elastgirl: I just don't feel it anymore (sadly) 

Three: I wonder who is making you be like that. 

There was a tall man with a white hat.

Four: I know who, he seems very familiar! The Numbertaker.

Three: And look up there, this rounded face. The puzzler too! 

Puzzler: Yes, correct, my numbertaker friend and myself has stolen all the powers so we can make them useless until the end.
