——————————🦸🏼♂️——————————
A police car was speeding after dangerous criminals in their own car who were shooting at them.
Meanwhile, a blond man was driving in his car wearing a very snappy suit, clearly on his way to an important event, when he heard something interesting over the radio.
"We interrupt for an important bulletin. A deadly high-speed pursuit between police and armed gunmen is underway traveling northbound on San Pablo Ave."
The man glanced down at his watch.
"Yeah, I've got time." He concluded
He hit a button on his car to put his car on Auto drive and leaned his chair back and a machine changed his tux into a black and blue superhero suit with a black mask and a big 'i' on the front, and his car converted to match his suit.
He sped forward to intercept the armed gunman when he noticed an old lady flagging him down.
"Mr. Incredible! Mr. Incredible!" She waved.
He pulled over and rolled down the window.
"What is it ma'am?"
"My cat, Squeaker, won't come down." She gestured to a tree where a cat was.
"Certainly ma'am, but I suggested you stand back, there could be trouble."
"No, no. He's quite tame." She promised.
Mr. Incredible picked up the tree with his super strength and started shaking it to try and get the cat down. Suddenly he heard sirens and noticed that the high speed chase was coming this way and he started shaking the tree harder and harder until the cat fell out. Then he swung the tree over into the road just as the criminals were about to drive past, causing them to ram into the tree.
He placed the tree back down just as his radio went off again.
"Attention all units! We have a tour bus robbery..."
"Tour bus robbery. I've still got time." Mr. Incredible muttered.
Mr. Incredible hopped into his car and fasten his seatbelt.
"Cool! Ready for take off." A voice said.
Mr. Incredible looked to the passenger seat and saw a young boy sitting in it wearing a mask and a cape.
"What the-? Who are you supposed to be?"
"I'm IncrediBoy!" He announced.
"What? No. You're that kid from the fan club. Brophy. Brody. Buddy! Buddy!"
"My name is IncrediBoy." He corrected.
"Look, I've been nice, I've stood for photos, signed every scrap of paper you pushed at me...but this..."
"No, no, no! You don't have to worry about training me. I know all your moves, your crime fighting style, favorite catch phrases, everything! I'm your number one fan!"
Next thing the kid knew, he was being ejected out of the car and Mr. Incredible drove away.
"Hey! Hey, wait!"
...
On a rooftop, a man could be scene going through a bunch of purses looking for valuable things.
"You know...you can tell a lot about a woman by the contents of her purse, but maybe that's not what you had in mind."

The man jumped and turned around seeing Mr. Incredible stalking towards him.
The man pulled out a gun. "Hey, look..."
Before he could say anymore, and arm shot out and punched him right in the face, knocking him out.
Mr. Incredible looked over and saw a woman in a silver and red uniform who also had a mask.
"Elastigirl."
"Mr. Incredible."
She bent down and picked the man up by his shirt.
"No, it's alright. I got him."
"Sure you got him. I just took him out for you." She said, dropping him.
"Sure you did. His attention was on me." He argued.
"A fact I exploited to do my job."
"My job, you mean."
"A simple 'thank you' will suffice." She told him.
"Thanks, but I don't need any help."
"Whatever happens to 'ladies first'?" She asked.
"Well, whatever happened to equal treatment?"
"Hey, look wait, the lady got me first." The robber pointed out, only to get hit in the face again.
"Well, we could share, you know."
"I work alone." He told her.
"Well, maybe you need to be a bit more..." she extend her limbs all around him. "Flexible."
"Are you doing anything later?" He asked.
"I have a previous engagement." She gave him a flirty smile and ran off.
...
Mr. Incredible handcuffed the robber to a pipe.
"Now you just stay here. They usually pick up the garbage in an hour." He said coldly.
A helicopter flew by and a man was shooting ice to create a path and skated after it.
"Hey, Incredible!"
"Hey, Frozone!"
"Shouldn't you be getting ready?" Frozone asked.
"I still got time!" He yelled back.
Suddenly, screaming was heard. A crowd was looking up at a tall building where a man was standing about to jump.
The man jumped off the building and Mr. Incredible stepped back a few feet and jumped across to the building just as the man was about to fall past him. The two crashed through a window and fell to the floor.
The man groaned. "I think you broke something."
"Well, with counseling, I think you'll come to forgive me." Mr. Incredible said.
He perked up when he heard beeping and dragged the man somewhere safer. He then put his ear up to the wall and the beeping sped up. Mr. Incredible jumped back from the wall just as it exploded, and a man walked out carrying sacks of money.
Mr. Incredible glared at the man. "Bomb Voyage."
"Mr. Incredible!" He growled in French
"And IncrediBoy!"
The two looked and saw Buddy standing in the broken window. His boots ignited and he flew over to Mr. Incredible.
"Hey, aren't you curious about how I get around so fast? See? I have these rocket boots." He said proudly.
"Go home Buddy. Now." Mr. Incredible sighed.

"What?"
"Little oaf!" Bomb Voyage insulted in French.
"Can we talk?" Buddy pulled Mr. Incredible aside. "You always, always say be true to yourself, but you never say which part to be true to. Well I've finally figured out who I am. I am your ward. IncrediBoy!"
"And now, you have officially carried too far, Buddy." Mr. Incredible said, as he grabbed Bomb Voyage.
"This is because I don't have powers, isn't it? Well not every superhero has powers, you know. You can be super without them. I invented these." He gestured to his shoes. "I can fly. Can you fly?"
"Fly home Buddy. I work alone." Mr. Incredible snapped.
"And your outfit is totally ridiculous!" Bomb Voyage added.
"Just give me one chance! I'll show you. I'll go to get the police."
Buddy turned to leave and Bomb Voyage placed a bomb on his cape.
"Buddy, don't!" Mr. Incredible yelled.
"It'll only take a second, really." He promised, not noticing the bomb.
"No, stop! There's a bomb!"
Mr. Incredible threw Bomb Voyage to the ground, and grabbed Buddy's cape just as he flew off. The two flew through the sky, out of control.
"Hey, let go, you're wrecking my flight pattern. I can do this if you let go!" Buddy yelled, still oblivious.
"I'm trying to help! Stop!"
"Let go of my cape!"
Mr. Incredible managed to get the bomb off and he and the bomb fell onto a train track. The bomb exploded breaking part of the track.
Mr. Incredible looked up and noticed a train coming towards the gap. He leapt across and rammed his body into the train and dig his feet into the track until it eventually came to a stop before it crashed.
...
Mr. Incredible held Buddy by the arm and dragged him over to the police.
"Get this one home. And make sure his mom knows what he's been doing." He ordered.
"I can help you. You're making a mistake!" Buddy yelled before he was pushed into the cop car.
"The injured jumper. You sent paramedics?" Mr. Incredible asked them cops.
"They already picked him up."
"The blast on the building was caused by Bomb Voyage who I caught in the act robbing the vault. Now, we might be able to nab him if we set up a perimeter."
"You mean he got away?" A policeman asked.
"Well, yeah. Skippy here, made sure of that." Mr. Incredible gestured to Buddy.
"IncrediBoy!"
"You're not affiliated with me!" Mr. Incredible yelled. He then looked at his watch. "Holy smokes, I'm late. Listen, I've gotta be somewhere." He went to get in his car.
"What about Bomb Voyage?" The policemen asked.
"Any other night, I'd go after him, but I really gotta go! Don't worry. Well get him! Eventually!"
...
Mr. Incredible pulled up to a church and entered back in his fancy suit, except he still had his mask on.
"Hey, is the night still young?" He asked his friend who was waiting for him.
"You are very late." He scolded.
"How do I look? Good?"
"The mask. You still got the mask." His friend pulled his mask off and Mr. Incredible faced the double doors.
"Show time." He opened the doors and walked down the aisle to his future wife.
...
"Robert Parr, will you have this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?" The priest asked.
"You're late." His future wife whispered. "When you asked me if I was doing nothing later, I didn't realized you'd forgotten. I thought it was playful banter."
"It was playful banter." He said.
"Cutting it kind of close don't you think?" She hissed.
"You need to be more...flexible." He whispered playfully.
"I love you. But if we're gonna make this work, you've gotta be more than Mr. Incredible. You know that. Don't you?"
"...so long as you both shall live?"
"I do." Robert answered.
"I pronounce this couple husband and wife." The priest announced.
Robert shared a kiss with his new wife and the crowd of superhero's clapped and cheered.
"As long as we both shall live. No matter what happens." His wife said.
"Hey, come on. We're superheroes. What could happen?" He shrugged.
...
"In a stunning turn of events, a superhero is being sued for saving someone, who apparently, didn't want to be saved."
A man in a neck brace faced reporters.
"The plaintiff, Oliver Sansweet, who was foiled in his attempted suicide by Mr. Incredible, has filed suit against the famed superhero in Superior Court."
"Mr. Sansweet didn't ask to be saved. Mr. Sansweet didn't want to be saved. And the injury received by Mr. Incredible's 'actions' causes him daily pain." His lawyer explained.
"Hey! I saved your life!" Mr. Incredible snapped.
"You didn't save my life! You ruined my death!" Mr. Sansweet snapped.
"My client has no comment." Mr. Incredible's lawyer said.
"Five days later, another suit was filed by victims of the El train accident."
A bunch of people in neck braces glare at Mr. Incredible.
"Incredible's court losses cost the government millions. And opened the gate for dozens of superhero lawsuits the world over."
"It is time for their secret identity to become their only identity." A woman announced. "Time for them to join us, or go away."
"Under public pressure, and the financial burden of an ever mounting series of lawsuits, the government quietly initiated the Superhero Relocation Program. The Supers were granted amnesty from responsibility for past actions, in exchange for the promise to never again resume hero work."
"Where are they now? They are living among us. Average citizens, average heroes. Quietly and anonymously continuing to make the world a better place."

The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island.

I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.

Now, he survives with broken memories chasing him. Confliction turns him from wanting to live and wanting to die. Guilt wretches him as he craves the forgiveness he can never have. Maybe tomorrow will bring a brighter day, or maybe more problems. **Cover Photo is Temporary** **I would say the story has light gore and traumatizing events, to the point that I originally didn't check the content warnings.
