I came dressed for the part. I take my role very seriously. How am I supposed to save the world with this ragtag team?
Who’s in charge of wardrobe here? Who ever heard of Captain America with a blue beaded necklace and a dinosaur bucket?
And who cast this leading lady? This super model princess towers over me. She’s twice my size. What kind of crazy casting agent assigned these parts, anyway?
Goth girl and little witch, get rid of the pink shoes, for crying out loud. You’re making us look soft.
Army dude, wipe that smile off your face. You’re supposed to look menacing. How are we superheroes supposed to be taken seriously?
And cat woman, make up your mind. Are you a cat or a cowgirl? Don’t look at me like that. Lose the flowery boots and the attitude. I don’t have time for this.
Look like me, team! Look tough!
Ugh. Forget it. Stand aside. I guess I’ll have to save the world myself with my plastic ninja sword.
Love this! So great to see the faces, and track through the comments to see who is the narrator.
Great observations and DPV. Heroes are important.. They come in many shapes and sizes!
This story is great Karen. Showed your snarky humor perfectly! Great observation skills wrapped into a cute story. Great job!

Thank you for reading my entry! So glad you liked it!
This is a really unique take on this prompt. I love the POVB and tone of your MC. Cute!
Thank you, Kathy! I’m glad you enjoyed my MC.
I’m kind of mad at the narrator and yet, I can see me being picky and having high expectations for the other people in my narrative. I love that you brought it all back to reality with that ending. Unique perspective.
I’m glad you enjoyed the ending.
I enjoyed this! Wonder what age group it would be for…
Thank you, Jodie! I’m glad you liked it. The age range is probably 6-9.
I LOVE this story Karen. I giggled all the way through. This is exactly how a child would see it! Superheroes with plastic ninja swords can definitely save the world! Congrats and good luck.
Thank you, Kerry! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
