"It's always 'your brother this your brother that'!" Axel kicked everything on his way as he stomped angrily towards the forest. His father was a great Hero who possessed great supernatural powers.copyright protection65PENANATGukqDdBYs
In a village where not everyone had even a tiny ounce of power, he was respected. He was the only one who pledged to use his ability to save people. He would engage in war and would come out victoriously with few injured men. Everyone, even Axel longed to be like him.copyright protection65PENANAwpdWaeZXs5
His family was no exception. All of them too possessed this great power. Including his two sons in which one of them would become his successorcopyright protection65PENANAgBt8KGySOc
Axel could already see his younger brother winning. But he still tried his best to live up to his father's name. Whatever he did his parents would compare him to his younger brother. If he went to the village to help the people his parents would scold him and tell him 'When your brother was busy learning you are roaming around! Why can't you be just like your brother?' copyright protection65PENANA5ujzT5y1Ax
This time was no different. He was in the market place when he saw a group of boys mistreating a girl. He had to step in there was no way he would ignore them. He approached them and in the end got into a fight. He was just about to use his powers when his mother appeared and dragged him back home silently.copyright protection65PENANADFyQXgegfn
He was given an earful for the longest time ever. He was lectured on the dangers of using his powers outside and how he could have killed the boys and so on. Of course, he knew that! He wouldn't have killed them! He just wanted to teach them a small lesson.copyright protection65PENANA4P0XLQT1mX
"Why do always see the bad in everything I do! I am good too! I am capable of saving people! I hate it! I hate that you compare me with my brother! I hate you!" Axel finally snapped causing his parents to be surprised.copyright protection65PENANARPpVBAKS2z
"Young man, go to your room!" His father, Derick, reprimanded the fifteen-year-old boy. "Look at Levi, he is doing something for the world. And he has never talked back at us!"copyright protection65PENANADjZhRMDsUu
"That's because you don't scold him!" Axel said before matching out, ignoring his parents' calling.copyright protection65PENANAWzr7yDoXn4
In the forest, as he stomped on he saw a familiar girl. She was holding a bow and arrow and was about to shoot a bird!copyright protection65PENANApsGpI8qOLM
"You stop!" He yelled causing the bird to fly away.copyright protection65PENANAGq5tYTJ10V
"Hey, I don't always interrupt you while you are about to have your meal!" the girl yelled.copyright protection65PENANAwBHzOSh62v
"Meal?" Axel was as confused as ever. Since when do people eat birds?copyright protection65PENANAwOontLThwa
"Unlike you, some of us have to survive with the little we have." The girl said setting the bow down and placing the arrow on the quiver on her back.copyright protection65PENANAyXG1BtQ5TC
"Actually, I am not who...you think I am," Axel said while biting his lower lips.copyright protection65PENANAiw722uTuzV
"And I don't know who you are. Neither do I care!" The girl said.copyright protection65PENANALLS4S4LFSP
What?! Everyone knew Axel and Levi, the sons of the great Hero. Come to think of it Axel has seen this girl somewhere...copyright protection65PENANAiSjPmzoAqp
"Right!" Axel exclaimed suddenly causing the girl to jerk up in surprise.copyright protection65PENANAFQkH69K6l2
"What?!"copyright protection65PENANAneRWrxb7OM
"First, I expect a thank you from you," Axel demanded.copyright protection65PENANArID1QFqbrl
"And why would I do that?"copyright protection65PENANAswRxfPViCq
"Because I saved you back there in the village."copyright protection65PENANARqMiOubqSA
"First you didn't actually 'save' me you were literally dragged away by your mommy. Mommy's boy!"copyright protection65PENANAS3yQKnOMVa
"That was--"copyright protection65PENANA1Beu1uaAYH
"And second, I didn't actually ask for your help." The girl said making it extra clear. "Now if you will excuse me, I will go and find my next meal. Hopefully, somewhere where no one will chase it away." The girl walked away. Axel being the curious type followed her.copyright protection65PENANA8ihmQUhEVK
"Hey quit following me--"copyright protection65PENANAH0BKRfTYMy
"Well, well, well, If it isn't little Ruby. Ready to finally pay what you owe us?" A group of three people appeared. copyright protection65PENANAFVXreIvhOu
Ruby let out a laugh. "As if!" She said and grabbed Axel's hand yelling "Run!" copyright protection65PENANAzX5YNP6Vqe
So they ran and ran and ran and ran and ran. By now I think you get the gist.copyright protection65PENANAwPCKFtgwcl
Once they lost the three they stopped for a break.copyright protection65PENANA4QobTq2A67
"Why exactly are we running and who are those guys?" Axel askedcopyright protection65PENANAlnqP7xmm6n
"Let's say just old acquaintances."copyright protection65PENANAW32kolUdda
"Should I be worried about my life?"copyright protection65PENANAB65qDUKk8a
"Yeah, you should."copyright protection65PENANAdpH0JRYx0D
"Well too bad because we found you." The three surprisingly had caught up to them.copyright protection65PENANAby79RKI7y3
"How did you find us?" Ruby asked.copyright protection65PENANA77zvIYt2XJ
"You realize you were running in circles right?" One of the three said.copyright protection65PENANAyZ4jaSvJwq
"What? How silly of us! If you will excuse us we will take our leave this time in the right direction." Ruby said as she turned laughing slightly. Before they could run. The three were already blocking their way.copyright protection65PENANA6FiBoAXkif
"Well, boy it was nice knowing you. I am sorry for your life. Let's meet in the afterlife."copyright protection65PENANAwva8NQ9gZn
"What?" Axel was surprised, confused, and lost at the same time. He leaves his home for just fifteen minutes and he is already going to die! How generous fate is! "I am not going to die here! I want to die a heroic death!" he said.copyright protection65PENANAdOUoqKw8rk
"Well, you are in luck because we are the worst villains!" Just them A light shone brightly on the five. There was a noise. It was either someone groaning in pain, or crying, or screaming Mother.copyright protection65PENANApvKDhKWu9Y
After that, the light disappeared and a boy stood in the middle, The three who were going to kill Ruby and Axel were on the ground dead.copyright protection65PENANArFXUilrWf0
"I hate people who lie." The boy says dusting his hands off as if he had finished cleaning up.copyright protection65PENANAQsYzSqpTH7
"Now," He turned to Axel and Ruby who were terrified. "Come with me quietly."copyright protection65PENANAOMNpeT8sum
Soon the boy led them deep into the forest. It was now dark. He led them to a camping site where a group of children in black was gathered,copyright protection65PENANAvhQe3jQxGd
"We have been waiting for you." They say in unison to Axel. copyright protection65PENANAVpUbkCJ5S4
At the same time, they grabbed Ruby and tied her up. copyright protection65PENANAUde7bGBIFt
"What? Let her go!" Axel demanded.copyright protection65PENANAPIzbkBb1Qy
"Not until you join us." The boy from earlier who seemed to be the leader threatened.copyright protection65PENANAwrZJ0pgeKp
"Join you?"copyright protection65PENANAzqJHOH1JWz
"Oh, I forget to introduce myself. I am Henry. The leader of the Greatest Young Villains. In short G.Y.V!"copyright protection65PENANApUM2Ugjr0a
"Pft!." The tied-up Ruby burst out laughing.copyright protection65PENANA8t9nGtD9TL
"What are you laughing at!" Henry snapped.copyright protection65PENANAuDlvKOx0Qb
"It's just that that name...It's like it was made by a kindergartener!"copyright protection65PENANAXTKh7Lz5Qf
"What do you expect it to be called?"copyright protection65PENANAv3hfTgQvEg
"I don't know, Young Villains Association?" Ruby said and Henry turned to his group. As Henry turned to his group she mouthed to Axel 'Run' but he shook his head he wouldn't leave her alone!copyright protection65PENANAK1ZKHiSWM1
"Anyway," Henry turned to Axel. "You are the evilest person and that's why you have to join us!"copyright protection65PENANABMs7u2DV7l
"I am not evil."copyright protection65PENANAzzyJslkAOp
"Really? Or are you just trying to make yourself believe that" Henry's words made Axel think deeply.copyright protection65PENANA72VIKG6yMH
All his life he has always tried his best to be good but only be turned down by his mistakes. Maybe there was no good in him. Then everything he experienced before meeting Ruby come flooding back. The pain, agony, hatred, and more hatred.copyright protection65PENANAoorgQ2kiDt
"No! I am good!" Axel said.copyright protection65PENANAuhL4O01rxB
"For how long will you let them treat you like a nobody? For how long will you allow them to accuse you for no reason. For how long will you let them not believe in you? I believe in you. We believe in you." Those words 'I believe in you' may be the words Axel wanted to hear ever since he was born.copyright protection65PENANAsgof15Uh0J
"Choose us. Choose the dark side. All you have to do is write the name of the person you hate and they will die and you will join us." Henry continued on as he presented Axel a book and a pen.copyright protection65PENANACaK6gsMGK5
"Don't listen to him!" Ruby yelled.copyright protection65PENANAqOhL6rlPJe
"Right here right now you choose, your family who have hated you or this girl who...just choose. With one choice everything could be yours! Even the world! We can show you that even bad wins."copyright protection65PENANAhbXNTO5gxi
"Hey!" Ruby yelled.copyright protection65PENANAwvvXj1g81k
"All I have to do is write the name of the person I hate and they will die? And you will let Ruby go?" Axel grabbed the book and pen as he asked to confirm. Henry nodded.copyright protection65PENANAI27NNAmMSD
He wrote the name, Levi. Believe it or not. he hated Levi more than anything. Always being compared to him. He hated him. He thought that if Levi wasn't born then he would have enjoyed life.copyright protection65PENANAPAFHFLOd2a
He couldn't also let Ruby die, she was the only person who didn't see him for who he is, The failure son of the hero.copyright protection65PENANA59AxpOMaWU
With a long sigh, he handed the book to Henry.copyright protection65PENANAgRie2NY2sr
With a smile, he said, "Welcome to the group!" copyright protection65PENANAPI4cZ6acXs
Ruby was released and he immediately went to Axel.copyright protection65PENANAJcAuSeloZG
"Do you know what you have done?" she asked.copyright protection65PENANABdIiP1cpAw
"Yes. I have relieved myself." Axel answered in a wicked tone. "Now you are free." copyright protection65PENANAeXuYlKYidI
"No way. I can't let you have fun alone!" Ruby said.copyright protection65PENANAZDuvq60yWi
Just a Henry said the next day Levi died. His death was unknown as he just collapsed.copyright protection65PENANA7WErEo95lh
Axel on the other hand felt he was home.copyright protection65PENANAUCkcJ4NwbV
