What constitutes a hero? What exactly is a hero?
People have different ideas of what makes a hero. Mariana Hadley had saved a lot of people in her time. She did not consider herself a hero. In a world where Tony Stark goes flying around in his Iron Man suit to save hundreds of people with his Stark Industries mini-missiles, 'hero' is a difficult title to live up to. People expect grandeur, skill, flashing lights, cool names and dorky outfits.
Mariana Hadley had none of that. Mariana Hadley had 36 bucks to her name, two outfits and no official place to call home. But damn was she determined to be remembered. Even by just a few.
Maybe someday by everyone.
