Snippet #6
Snippet #6
Tw: violence, blood, self sacrifice, threats

She saw it coming. Just a blur of movement, shadows rushing closer. No time to think.
“Run!” She shoved the student away from the window and her world exploded. Screams filled her senses as debris rained, the force of collision knocking her off her feet.
She was losing the fight with consciousness. Fast. The last thing she saw, a figure standing up from the rubble. And the kids weren’t running, they’d hurt them.
No! Don’t hurt her students! Not them. Anyone but them…
~~
No, anyone but Teacher!
She shoved them out of the way, sacrificed her safety for theirs. She was their rock, always there for them, especially when their parents—
Focus. Focus. Their teacher is unconscious. That gash on her forehead is still bleeding. And a quick glance around the room showed Hero there was a passed out student on the floor, too.
Perfect. Just perfect.
“You four, take your friend and get out of here. Pull the fire alarm when you go, it’ll clear everyone else out. {Sidekick}, use the confusion to get gauze and bandages from the nurse’s office.” Their classmates stared, eyes wide, terrified.
“Behind you…”
Hero turned.
Villain was getting up.
Bad. Badbadbadbadbad. Another kid from their class was suddenly in front of Hero, their stance protective, ready for a fight. Wait, what were they- Oh.
Hero nodded to them, turned around and stepped away. “Go.” The command rumbled through their throat, demanding an objection.
“And pull the fire alarm!” Other Hero called after the swarm of students rushing out of the door. Probability any of them will return? 0%,” Other Hero cracked their knuckles as Villain regained their balance. “But the probability Villain gets their butt handed to them? 100%.”
Other Hero’s eyes landed on another classmate still in the room. “Sidekick, go get Hero.”
“No need,” Hero piped. They never imagined their identity would be exposed like this, but oh well. “Sidekick, I need you to get the bandages.”
“You’re- oh, we are going to have words.”
“Later.” The fire alarm screeched. “Sidekick, go!” Hero turned their attention back to Villain, only to see them being thrown through the nearest wall. Other Hero rushed past, towards their teacher, pulling debris and rubble away in their wake.
Hero dropped into a fighting stance beside the other kid as Villain charged.Hero blocked Villain’s punch and swung their leg out, catching them in the back of the knee. The villain tried to get back to their feet, but they were held down by their classmate.
“What did I tell you would happen if you came after them?” They spoke slowly, their voice a mix of chastisement and barely contained rage. “Go ahead, remind me what I said to you.” Hero was about to intervene but their sidekick called their attention to their teacher and the messy bandages. Teacher was covered in so many cuts, so many wounds. Mostly small ones, but there were a few larger gashes still oozing blood. They needed a hospital. But for now, the bandages would have to work.
Hero stood once they finished, carefully taking Teacher in their arms. They took a look around to survey the damage, their eyes catching on the student holding the unconscious villain by the back of their suit. Wrath swirled in their dark eyes. “I’m taking this one. Don’t try to stop me.” Their voice held a sinister promise. Hero nodded and moved to let them pass. They should have tried to stop them, Hero didn’t know what would happen to the villain, but they couldn’t bring themselves to stop them.
“Wait, you’re just going to let them take Villain?” Hero turned to the source of the voice, Other Hero. “What about arresting them? Isn’t that our job?”
“Villain hurt our teacher. They’re going with me.”
“Seriously, just who do you think you are? I mean obviously you’re a super, but there’s no way we’re letting you take Villain, he belongs in our custody.” Sidekick pointed an accused look their way.
“Sidekick don’t-“
The teen laughed and began to levitate. “Me? You know me as Supervillain. Now get Teacher to safety. I’m going to make sure this villain regrets his decision.”
Villain was never heard from nor seen again.

4. Boom! The witch's curse means that you can only ever write about one of the characters you written about before… ever again. Which character will you hang on to?
This question is unfairly easy for me. I probably shouldn’t count her as my choice but I’m going to anyway. Her codename is Lady. She is a grifter, a con artist, if you please. If you don’t know what that is, it is a person who has enough confidence and/or resources to become anyone or anything they want in order to get something they desire. She could fit any mould and become any character I wanted her to be.
Any name, any life, anywhere, ANYTHING.
