《I don't want to be a hero》Chapter 5: Help Please!
Advertisement
It was after Unicorn throw a guy to a supporting pillar that the building couldn't hold the roof weight anymore and the building went down
Let's just say it wasn't pretty afterwards
Some bystanders got out, but most were buried under the selling or walls or pipes etc. The same could be said about the heroes, mafia and hood guys
They were all buried
And what about the four little kids? Well, unlike most bystanders that were close to the door, max though it would be safer to get under cover away from the rest and wait it out until the fighting ended
This allowed them to watch closely the fight and move to a different place if someone approached
It wasn't a bad idea considering they wouldn't be able to get out for a while if they stayed close to the door, and most of the firepower was shoot near there
But it didn't help much when the building falls down
In the end, they were buried like the rest
And they died
The end
Did you fall for it?
I guess not if you are reading this
So yeah, Sara didn't die, she was unconscious for an unknown amount of time, and when she woke up, she find herself surrounded by debris and a broken table
Before the building fell down, Max ordered the kids to get under the table, but in the border
Something that he learned in the school, and was a common safety class that the government taught everywhere thanks to the constant dangers involved powered fights
The principal behind staying in the border of the table instead of the center is simply because the weak point of the table is the middle, so it is safer to stay in the border, near the legs
And they precisely stayed near a table in case something like that happened, or to use it as cover if some strange attack came their way

This save Sara's life, but what about the rest?
Well.....
Let's just say that Sara won't considers that day a day of celebration for coming out alive
Both John and Jess looked fine, just pass out with a little debris on them. The problem was Max
He was too big to fit in the table with the others, so he only managed to cover part of his body, while leaving the rest out
And the part that he left out was cover in debris
Sara panic when she saw that, she may be young, but even she knew that if something heavy falls down on you, it was bad
She run to his side and tried to wake him up, over and over again without success. She could see him breathing barely, but he wouldn't
So when she saw what she was doing wasn't working, she decided to get an adult helps, and what would be the best choice?the heroes of course
Like every kid, she admired the heroes that fight evil and helped the helpless
She believed that if anyone could help her family, it would be them
Innocence, right?It wouldn't take long for her to finally lose it
Why? because heroes are a-s holes
When she arrived at the heroes, she found Angel healing Aegis, after been burnt half to death. Blue lighting was nowhere to be found and Unicorn was rescuing the people near the exit(where everyone gathered before the collapse)
Sara saw Angel healing Aegis, so she realised she could help her family, so she didn't hesitate and approached her
"Miss, I need your help, my brother is in danger. Please help him!"(Sara) said to Angel when she approached her
And Angel looked at her for a second, and then returned her focus to healing Aegis

"Kid, I can't move right now. Bring him over so I can heal him"(Angel) said while still trying to heal Aegis
"But but but if we don't hurry he may die! please come help me"(Sara) still tried to convince her while pulling her from her arm with one arm and pointing to her brother direction with the other
Angel, on the other hand, force her to let go of her arm, and with an annoyed look responded
"Kid, I can't move from here right now, if you want to help your brother, bring him overhear or ask Unicorn to do it for you"(angel)while pointing with her chin to Unicorn direction
She was basically getting rid of an annoying person. Not like the kid realised
Instead, she just ran at full speed towards Unicorn
She found him moving debris and taking out bodies under it, probably trying to find any survivors
Somewhere moving to the side or asking him for help at his side, so some people survived the collapse
When Sara approached him, she tried to grab his attention like a few of the other survivors, without much success
He was moving all over the place at a faster pace than Sara could follow, but she didn't give up
And after a while, after following him all over the place and saying unicorn over an over again, he finally decided to pay attention to her
"What do you want kid"(Unicorn) said while still moving around and trying to rescue as many as he could
"My brother needs helps, please take him to the healing lady"(Sara) said while feeling a little glad her words finally came across
"I am trying to help as many as I can kid, point me to his direction and I will see what I can do"(Unicorn)
"He is over there"(Sara) said while pointing at a corner far away
Unicorn looked at the direction Sara pointed at and he showed a serious expression
"I can't go there kid"(Unicorn) said while still moving debris and taking bodies and people
"Why not!"(Sara)
"Too far away, by the time I got there and back, I could have helped 10 people in a similar situation like your brother.Besides..."(Unicorn) was hesitant of saying something else
"Please help him. He could die!"(Sara)
"I can't help you, kid, you will have to find someone else or do it yourself"(Unicorn) said while still moving all over the place
Sara insisted a little more, but after realising he wouldn't help, she started asking some of the survivors
She asked any adult she could find, but they were either to hurt to move, busy looking for someone or something, or just didn't care
So with no other choice, she asked help from other kids, but they acted like the adults. They were either to hurt, too busy or an a-s
She only managed to get the help from 2 kids that knew Max and were of similar age than her
After seen no one else would help her, she took the two of them to where Max was to see if they could move him or at least help him

8 189A Guide to Becoming a Pirate Queen
Sometimes demon summonings go wrong, but that’s not always a bad thing… When a group of anti-corporate terrorists attempts to put an end to Bryce’s illegal weapon research by sacrificing her to a demon, it doesn’t go well. With her secret out and nowhere left to turn, Bryce will need to learn to navigate the galaxy’s criminal underworld in order to survive. But first she’ll have to negotiate a deal with the devil that was summoned to kill her. Content warning: strong profanity, violence, kidnapping, torture, alcohol and drug use, implied sexual situations, heavy-handed trauma, mild-to-severe piracy, poorly executed demon summoning, a rushed sapphic relationship, bad puns, really bad sex puns, dragon crime lords, werewolf gangsters, blatant spoiling of a fictional romance novel, and over representation/normalization of gay and/or queer characters New chapters on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday If you can't wait for those releases then you can find more chapters on my Patreon. It's 11 chapters ahead (about 25k words) and is currently releasing at 2x the rate of RR +there's pretty art!

8 228A Monster's Jaunt
Joshua the Mighty is a hero renowned by none. He is awful at fighting, refuses to take a bath, and is frankly a detriment to all that encounter him. This story, thankfully, is not about him. In a small part of the woods, secluded from human contact, lies the Witches' Grove, a sanctuary for beasts and creatures of all kinds from hunting and destruction. Joshua, through no fault of his own, stumbles into the grove, and is immediately killed for trespassing. This story is about the small shapeshifter that sees him die, and has an idea that will change the world.
8 366Apostle of the Goddess
A disappointed man dreams of leaving the confines of Earth and living adventures in fantastic realms...Suddenly, his wish is granted... Albeit in a far different way from what he could have expected. An isekai genre story with a few elements from LitRPG. The overall tone will be jumping back and forth from light to dark. Expect a lot of references to anime, manga, games, etc.It is written in first-person view and will contain a side-story using a "real-life" character. Initially, the MC will be writing the story as a true journal, so the prologue and first chapters may appear a mess of things that already happened, journal entries, and afterthoughts. A few chapters in, it will change into a normal, first-person manner retelling of what happened (storywise the character "Records" what happened to him). This is a side project of mine, so I will be uploading a few chapters per month. Chapters may have a severe difference in length (albeit I will try to maintain them around 3k), but expect the overall monthly word count to be not less than 15k words.Author recommendation, if you intend to follow the story, read the new updates once a month (counting from the day the first chapter is uploaded). Content Warning: I do intend to include a few disturbing moments to emphasize the darkness of the human (and other beings) nature, so please consider that even though some chapters (especially the starting ones) are kinda like a comedy routine.
8 199Stella's Feathers
A beautiful soul was born on Earth The Goddess of Fortune decided to bless this soul to a life of fortune But the Goddess of Beauty became jealous and turned fortune to misfortune And so is the life of this soul lives, until at 16 where she dies to save a kind child from her cursed misfortune Watch her grow as she learns to deal with her new surroundings, new friends, and the authors best attempt at a heartwarming story ------------------------------------------- nice to meet you, please call me Star, this is my first novel and I will no doubt make lots of mistakes so please feel free to comment on anything you feel like might help the story. while constructive criticism is helpful I will just ignore trolls or laugh at them so feel free to do the same. I am terrible at spelling and I'm not doing this for profit but as a way to relax so no paid editors. I will warn you that if this book gets impossible for me to write I might just end it, but I will write an end even if it's ended abruptly I hope it won't get that bad though. well hopefully that won't happen, by the way, the ending will be the same it's just the difference of whether or not there are loose ends. this is mainly an adventure/fantasy, the romance will likely be cringe-worthy with just how slow it will be, either I won't know how to advance or won't want to due to the circumstances I make, on purpose or accidentally. if you have suggestions for story progression feel free to help, I will, of course, give you props if I use them. Have Fun ----------- on hiatus for very personal reasons and will get back when i can. ----------- so, im rewriting the story. after i rewrite the existing chapters i will replace the existing ones. to those who have enjoyed the story so far thank you for giving me your time and i hope you find the new version even better. it will take time to rewrite the existing chapters but i hope to see you again soon. the story will change quite a bit so im sorry to those who wanted to see what happened next in the original. i hope to see you soon!
