Over the course of the past few days I have been interfering with local crooks and giving them a good schooling over disturbing my neighborhood at night. I was no vigilante but I just had to do it for my peace, all I wanted was to enjoy my slumber without me wondering what was going on outside each time I heard a gunshot or the sudden scream of a stranger.

I had been ignoring those bullshits for the past few months and I tried to accept it as the night life of this part of town but these days they took it up a notch and that was why I am responding to their rogue behaviors.

Finally I could now sleep a little bit more peacefully at night, better than a few months ago. The crime rate had reduced and the gunshots had stopped hunting the hood at night and rumors had been spreading about a metahuman who causes trouble for anyone harassing a person with a gun at night, and they referred to him as a vigilante who protected that neighborhood. Recently they started robbing people the old fashion way, with a knife and no longer a gun. It did not cause a stir and was none of my business.

Although they could not identify me since it was usually night time and I never stepped into the light which might expose my face or white hair, my balaclava mask made it even more difficult most times since it only leaves openings for my eyes. I wouldn't want to cause problems for myself and have a mob of goons attack my home just to get rid of me. I know this city's heroes can't be everywhere at once but the cops should at least make an effort to clean this part of town, it just seemed like they had given up on that neighborhood.

…

It was a Saturday, a day to relax and just focus on myself. I got myself a hot cup of coffee to start the mellow day then headed for the library as it had become an hobby of mine to read about things relating to this verse, all they talked about most times were stories about politicians, heroes and villains of different cities, world leaders and crisis events that would have scared the world but were saved by the Justice League.

The Justice League, a group of people in spandex who are sick with hero complex and feel the undying need to save the world. I don't have a problem with them but the way they are looked upon like gods over here is something else, yes they have a god in their midst but then there's also Batman.

A human with no superpowers but yet he was feared by many, his unfazed nature strikes immeasurable fear in the hearts of both friends and foes alike, making people wonder if he was actually human or just an emotionless being.

Wonder woman was a true beauty to behold with the makings and beauty of both a princess and a warrior. Her confidence was limitless and she seemed to be involved in some kind of peace treaties between America and other countries.

Shazam was a powerful hero but I knew he's just a kid blessed with the powers of wizards. Although the rest of the world doesn't, except within the League. One thing about Batman was that the guy just knows everything and anything about anyone. Kinda scary I think. I mean a team member you can't hide anything from, not even your personal life is a secret when it comes to him. A bonafide vigilante with daddy issues and is so paranoid to the point that he has contingency plans for both villains terrorizing his city and for members of his own team.

I was never a fan of Superman for some reason which I'm still trying to figure out, something about him just ticks me the wrong way. I'm not throwing shades though. I know he's a godlike but humble hero and believes in doing the right thing. Over here he's like America's secret weapon in warfare as no country would want to fuck with them when they have a living nuke that could wipe out their army before they even cross borders.

Don't get me started on Green Lantern who keeps the peace between intergalactic civilizations. The thought of aliens existing was a thought I just assumed was science fiction but there was Superman and Martian Manhunter who are living proof of extraterrestrial lives.

I was done reading some books and it was time to take my leave. I had become a regular at the library because there were books I needed to read with information not found at my school's library.

I got to my apartment and went straight to my laptop to check if there was any requests from my site and it turned out there were quite a few and this time a few weird ones tagged along.

There was one who requested for advice on how to get his MILF stepmom to fuck him. Oh, how porn had fucked with the mind of that fellow. I just advised him to eliminate that thought from his disdainful mind and get himself a girlfriend. I continued from that smudged request and moved on to the rest.

Another request was from a chemistry student and it was about a component he needed to stabilize a chemical compound he was working on which might prove to be a huge breakthrough in an experiment he was working on.

I studied the information he had provided and did my own research then realized it just needed a covalent compound to bond the chemical components together. I guess that was one of the perks of having a father who ran a huge pharmaceutical company in my previous life and made me learn a thing or two in chemistry. I gave him the idea of exactly what he needed, he handled the rest and found the missing component.

The requests kept pouring in, some were worth looking into and some were just too dumb so I ignored them. The kind of requests I had fun attending to were the ones which proved to be a challenge, a real brain cracker.

An unknown individual asked for help with finding a relative who was presumed missing and the police had tried their best but had no clue as to the whereabouts of that relative, so he contacted me through my site and asked for my help.

The so-called relative was a waitress and also his cousin who disappeared from Central City a few weeks back, she left no trace or information as to where she might have headed.

I asked for the precise date he last spoke with her and it turned out to be a few hours before she closed for the day and wasn't heard from again. I hacked into the security system of the restaurant and searched for footage of that particular day.

She had left the shop after closing time and carried a small briefcase with her, that was where the trail went cold but I had other ideas. I hacked into the systems of the surrounding buildings and used a facial recognition software to search for each time her face was spotted by a surrounding camera that evening and the trail led all the way to a train station.

The cameras in the train station caught her entering a train which led to Star City. I searched the record of her debit card and her last purchase before leaving the city was to buy a train ticket but she hasn't made use of the card since, I'm sure that was one of the reasons they could not find her.

I sent the evidence of her leaving the city on her own accord and not in any form of danger to the concerned relative and it seemed to have brought some kind of closure to him but the pain of her leaving without telling him would hurt him for some time.

Another request was from a programmer who was working on an app which used music to induce a feeling of calmness into the brain and was for people who suffered from anxiety or panic attacks.

It was a fine idea but it could become addictive and lead to excessive usage and make a lot of people dependent on the feel good drug. Yes it was definitely going to turn into a drug, eventually.

And what if a person tempers with the app's program and turns it into a weapon to subdue people or control the emotions of listeners? We've got another super villian in our hands, that's what.

A villain who uses music to control the emotions and brainwaves of people might prove troublesome to handle. I declined then pointed out the disadvantages of that app and luckily he saw things from my perspective and stopped the project but instead turned it into an interactive app which served as a mobile therapist. Nothing revolutionary but helpful.

All these requests, these people must think I am an AI or something.
