《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

The Good Necromancer
Hundreds of years ago, shortly after the Great Cataclysm which destroyed the Ancient World, was the Age of Heroes. One of these great heroes started off in the most hated profession of the time, Necromancer. Join him and his comrades as they accomplish the first of the Good Necromancers legendary tasks. ***** So, quick update for those who pay attention to this section. I'm finally coming out of finals for this semester, and I plan on getting the whole already posted section revised. It's taken me a while to change the necessary things, as I had to start all the way over, but I've at least got the rough drafts for all the revised chapters. These should be going up within the next week or so, still have to go to work, but I am here, I haven't forgotten or dropped the story. Just trying to make this the best work that I can produce. P.S. I will be releasing additional stories. They are all going to be in the Good Necromancer world, however the others will give you an idea on how humans in other locations survived and have thrived. Or not. =)

The Guild
The world is broken. The apocalypse came and went, and only a fragment of humanity is left, scrambled into an unrecognizable mess. The remainders of the earth are filled with monsters from imagination and worse. Gates open periodically, leading to alien worlds, while dungeons form from damaged minds, creating nightmares for the unsuspecting. Some might see it as the end times. A hellscape. A story of humans pushed to their breaking points, desperately grasping for the last bits of humanity as the world crumbles around them. But a few might disagree. One man, in particular, sees opportunity. A chance. A path forward, to bring humanity from the depths of despair and turn it into a victory - a luxury. To remake the world even better than it was, dragging earth forward onto the galactic stage. It will require violence, lies, betrayals, magic, more violence, and the occasional genocide. But, hey. Everything worth doing is hard, right?
