Jake the Super

Written by Curt Lance Wong

           Once upon a time, in town called Geegeedoubleyoupee, a boy named Jake sat on a bench thinking, “How am I made and who are my parents?” One day, he sat on another bench watching the children playing tug-of-war. “Can I play?” asked Jake. “Yah sure, only if you lose.” replied his playmates. Jake is so powerful that in one tug, he defeated his playmates. “Hey, we told you to lose!!!” said his playmates. His playmates beat Jake up. Jake lost his temper and beat them back. Jake is so strong that he knocked down his playmates in a single blow. Jake realized his powers that come from his body.

Every day, he fights robbers and helps people in need. One day, in a town called Ohpinoobnoob, a villain came out of nowhere and said, “I am Skaar, now bow down to me!!!”. The people screamed for help. “Help us, help us please!!!” said one person. Jake heard it from a distance when many people were already screaming for help. He was shocked with what he had seen- a villain who almost has the same powers as Jake. “Surrender, evil being!” said Jake. “Mwahaha, you think I give up that easily?” replied Skaar. Skaar made the first move and tried to punch Jake. Since the evil villain was too slow, Jake managed to dodge his punches. Jake punched Skaar back. With his mighty jab, he knocked out his opponent.

(Several minutes later), “Urghhh…. Why am I on the floor?” said Skaar unconsciously. “Why are you attacking my people?” asked Jake in a rage. “I’m not and I do not live here. I live in a planet called Planet X, I….think you also live there….this is why we have the same powers and strength.” said Skaar. Jake asked himself and then suddenly, “WAPOW!!!!!!!” Skaar quickly punched Jake in the face. “I’m just joking, there is no such thing as the Planet X, I have the power that could imitate other people’s power, and this is why I have the same powers as you….Mwahaha!!!!!” said Skaar with a maniacal laugh. Jake got furious and started punching Skaar. He got knocked out again, but this time, he vaporized and disappeared. 

The people of Ohpinoobnoob were very happy of his heroic duty. Jake had saved millions of people in the world. “Thank you HERO….we love you!!!!” said all the people cheerfully. “Uhmm….oh! By the way, my name is Jake and I am a good friend to all my people,” said Jake. The people named him ‘Jake the Super’ after he defeated Skaar the evil villain. And from then on, he protected the people day after day.
