Zander Pride Quotes
The Lost Guardian
Chapter One - Epidemic
“Aghhh,” Zander spat out, utterly exhausted, as he wearily hurtled himself down on the torn apart sofa. Sheer tiredness now suddenly a heavy burden like how the titan Atlas bears the weight of the world, he fainted, entirely oblivious to the ear-damaging horns and the chaotic mayhem just across the rubbish strewn street.

With uneven breaths, he painfully awoke 3 hours later, only to hear a drunk bloke shriek, at the top of his lungs, “Screw the Black-Rule Party!” Slowly recalling the outbreak which cost him an excruciating pain in the eye, he remembered about the 2264 US election where the corrupt BRP won the majority of the seats.

Zander, unfamiliar with the sensation of receiving a phone call, doubled back. Curiously, he approached the ringing instrument, and like a questioning time traveller from the Bronze Age, he gradually picked up the mysterious object from the distant future. On the other end was Professor Edward Moore, sagely enunciating each word as if mocking him, “Zander, do you want to go to Slopia on the new Demon SX-9 spaceship tomorrow?”

“Okay then, just don’t forget that you can ask me anytime,” Professor Moore reminded.
“Good day.”
Remarkably, the wise Professor Moore thought he was a child, like the other coworkers. Indeed, an atom or perhaps a quark would inevitably perceive him as socially awkward and outdated. However, Zander thought, “Why is he treating me like that?” Like a bull in a traditional bullfight, he stormed to the local bar to… well, to get drunk.

Caught off guard by the staggering structure, he missed a sneaky alien positioning himself to backstab him. Just as the alien was about to strike, a single snowball whizzed past his ear at the speed of light and the target’s left eye popped out, causing his body to instantly collapse as if gravity suddenly increased by 1000%. Dumbfounded, Zander tried to figure out the owner of the painful beauty, but to no avail. Suddenly, an icy hand gripped his shoulder firmly from behind. Petrified, his adrenaline abruptly increased, and his echoing heartbeat could be heard by a person back on Earth. Dreading the moment, he slowly turned around and was greatly shocked when he saw his utmost

However, if only one character from the book, Freak the Mighty were to be chosen and defined as the hero of the story, I believe that Kevin would best represent the title, hero.…
