Several men were seated at a conference. It was held in a highly advanced technological building. They all had lab coats on with a badge on each of them. On each badge, there was the name of each person on it, indicating he was a member of the SHC (Super Heroes Creators). The acronym was below their names, with its meaning below it.
A man walked into the stage in front of them and they all stood up and bowed, showing reverence. He was the leader of the creators organization. He indicated to everyone to sit down.
He began his speech. "The SHC has been reaching out to various countries to help them fight against the world villains, and we've been defeating all the villains successfully." He received a round of applause.
The creator of the C.A.N.D.Y fighters turned left to his colleague. "Can't wait to see the country he'd send you to", he said. His colleague only smiled, he was really anxious. "I hope I won't fail the SHC wherever I go", he said to himself. He was a dark skinned man.
"We want to reach out to even more nations as the world villains come into existence in these nations." The leader kept silent for a while, trying to find out where the dark skinned man was sitting. When he finally spotted him, he continued with his speech.
"Y'all know we have a new member in our company right?", he asked everyone. The audience replied with a yes. "The time is coming", the dark skinned man became nervous.
"He's gonna be among the few members that will actually create a superhero in someone, others will continue with the invention of devices that'd better the society." He then cleared his throat;"I'll like to invite Mr Robinson to the stage." The dark skinned man stood up and walked up to the stage, receiving a round of applause as he did so.
When he climbed up the stage, he shook hands with the leader. He then turned to the audience and waved at them, trying not to show off his nervousness. The leader told everyone to sit down thereafter.
The leader continued;"I have my reasons for appointing this man here for the task of creating a superhero in someone."
"He's been studying rat for two years now. He's capable of changing part of the human DNA into a rat's DNA. The person won't have all the attributes of a rat but part of it, that will make the person have special abilities...some special abilities." All the members seated were paying absolute attention to his speech.
"And what are the special abilities he's going to give to the person? Huh?", he walked to and fro.
He counted with his fingers;"The first one is the great ability to smell." "Our next superhero will be able to perceive the mildest scent possible."
"The second one, which is my favorite! Our upcoming superhero will be able to dig through walls and the ground quickly."
"Thirdly! The superhero will be able to run as quick as a rat and be a very smart person in terms of hiding from people, especially the villains."
"Apart from all these benefits that are gotten from rats, our superhero will be able to climb, will automatically be good in martial arts once he wears the costume...I think that's all but, all these qualities are really cool if combined in a person."
He turned behind and signalled something to the people behind. A big screen was brought down and the picture of the costume was loaded on it for all to see.
Everyone got awestruck when they saw the costume. Mr Robinson was happy seeing that everybody loved his design. The costume was a sparkling black one. It had the picture of a rat in a yellow background at the chest region. It also had a big crest of the SHC logo at the stomach region. This was what impressed the leader the most of all.
It was a fitting outfit. It had a mask separately from the body. The eyespots were made of white glass. It had gloves that ended in improvised claws made of glass. The feet also ended in claws and finally, it had a tail attached to the back.
The leader told the audience what made him like the costume the most of all other costumes. "The costume has the crest of SHC at the stomach region. No other costume has SHC logo on it...that's why I love this one most."
The crowd saw what he said as ridiculous. They murmured amongst themselves. "Silence!", he shut them up, happy to show his authority over them. He told the people at the back to take away the screen.
Someone walked onto the stage with an iPad and handed it over to him. He glanced through what was on the screen and looked up to the people.
"From the results we got from time travel to the future, we're gonna be having a villain to deal with down in Nigeria very soon. Precisely, it's gonna be happening in Calabar City."
He turned to Mr Robinson;"I know you'll be capable of defeating this villain. You'll head to Calabar tomorrow and make sure you choose a teenager for the job." Mr Robinson nodded his head, listening to all instructions given to him. The leader handed back the iPad and the person walked away.
"So...Mr Robinson will be in charge of taking care of Calabar City in Nigeria. Good luck!" He expected a round of applause from the crowd but they didn't applaud him.
"Uhmmm...I'm actually done with my speech everyone." "Oh! Sorry!", they apologized and gave him a standing ovation. He gave them a look that portrayed, "It's not funny a single bit".
He then shook hands with Robinson and wished him good luck once more. Robinson nodded his head in response. "I'll do it!", he said within himself.
