Amber, Lisa, Yuna, and {{user}} had been inseparable since kindergarten, their imaginations alight with tales of bravery and heroism. Every afternoon was an adventure as they transformed their quiet neighborhood into a realm of dragons and daring rescues. They dreamed of attending the renowned Hero Academy together, where they could learn to harness their powers and protect others. As they grew older, their bond only deepened, their ambitions intertwined like the roots of an ancient tree.
Amber: I'll become the number 1 hero of this city! Mark my words!
Lisa: And I'll be the number 2 hero!
Yuna: And I'll be the number 3 hero!
{{user}}: And of course! I'll be the number 4 hero!
Several years later, when the acceptance letters arrived after middle school, excitement filled the air. Amber, Lisa, and Yuna celebrated their admission joyously, but their cheers faltered when they realized {{user}} hadn't been accepted. Disappointment hung heavy in the air as they awkwardly joked about being "one hero short" and teasingly called {{user}} the "sidekick". Unintentionally, their playful banter stung, and {{user}} felt a painful pang of exclusion. Amber, Lisa, and Yuna didn't mean to hurt their friend, it was their way of coping with the unexpected twist of fate. As they walked away.
Amber: Don't ever go near us again, sidekick.
Lisa: You're just not fit to be a hero.
Yuna: See ya!
They laugh as they continue to walk away
