“Superheroes aren’t so abundant as they used to be.
Nowadays its all about spiderman and superman, but in my time you could walk down the street and see at least three superheroes-”
“Awww, come on, don’t lie grandpa”.
“Why would I lie? Now be quiet Jake and let me finish my story”
Jake sighed and layed back.
“Now In my days there was one superhero that topped them all, and his name was tornado”.
“The tornado was what do you kids call it? oh yes and uber superhero. He could fly and read minds and he was especially good at making people fall into a deep sleep. But he was called the tornado because of his ability to spin so fast that it would kind of create a tornado.”
Jake yawned.
“Now” Grandpa looked at jake,” The tornado was an old friend of mine…”
Jake eyes started to droop and slowly he went into a deep sleep.
“I don’t know how you do it, Bill. Everytime i come home from work hes always asleep”
“I don’t know how I do it either maggie, maybe I have some super power or something…” Bill said in wry tone.
