"But..but I can help!" In an emotional moment, I slam my hands on the desk of the secretary, having rejected my 20th hero application.

The secretary raises her hands, horrified as she stares right behind me. "Dont....dont hurt me".

I turn around and see a giant 6 foot man in a wife beater, holding a chainsaw, staring at the secretary and licking his lips.

"Sorry about that, I got emotional". I snap my fingers and the strange man disappears.

"I have full control of them you know, they dont so anything without my orders" I explain, but she is having none of it. Still staring at me in absolute shock, ive decided to call it a day and leave.

Walking outside the registry, I spot the detonator, a villain with the power of explosives. He's beenl following me for the past four months trying to make me his apprentice.

"Ringmaster! There you are. Rejected again I assume?" I sigh and nod. Ringmaster was the villain name he has chosen for me. I still cant pick a hero name.

"Well maybe today I can finally convince you to come with me to my lai..." An axe swings, detonator dodging just at the right moment. In an instant detonator was surrounded with 6 of my minions. "Dibs on his third rib!" one of my minions yells, as he charges for detonator with a barbed wire baseball bat.

Detonator snaps his fingers and explodes, sending all 6 of my minions flying into giblets. But just before he could blink, I resummoned my minions, and detonator was surrounded again.

"Again! Again! that was fun!" one of my minions yells, staring eagerly and creepily at detonator with lustful eyes.

Detonator chuckles "Your true nature is staring at me, quite eagerly ,Ringmaster" Detonator explodes upwards, making his escape. "Mark my words ringmaster, youll join me one of these days!" Detonator yells as he flies off like a firework.

I snap my fingers and my minions vanish without a trace. The power to summon and control deranged serial killers. I cannot even THINK of a more villainous power. And yes theyre just ordinary powered, but they always bring their favorite weapon with them, and they seem to be incapable of feeling pain, which makes them walking nightmares.

I can summon around a 100 at a time, which is a small army. And I have no distance limit, which is very unusual and rare for a summoning type power. Theoretically - I am a supreme catch for the heros!

Think of all the good I can do! How many people I can save with an immortal 100 man army!(I can always resummon any dead ones).

But my minions are just too...scary. Victims run away on sight and often get into even worse trouble when I try to help. It doesn't help that theyre always armed, and have a fixed lustful look in their eyes, CRAVING violence.

I start crying, resting my back on the wall of the hero registry. "Cheer up boss, im sure we can find something you want dead, hah!" A minion appears next to me. I have a habit of accidently summoning one when I get emotional. "Like what?" I ask. Staring right into his deranged violent eyes. You honestly get used to it, besides what type of hero would scared of their own minions

"Youre not seeing the big picture boss, theres a third option! hehe!" "A third option? explain" My minion gives me the creepiest smile "Why the option that is always there - Kill kill kill!!" "Im not turning into a villain. Forget it" "But you can kill the villains boss!"

I stare at him in disbelief. That...is that an option? Truly? "We can start with that dickonator, fucker needs to die, right boss?" I nod. "The detonator needs to die" I say outloud. "Hahaha thats my boss. LETS CHOP HIS LIMBS AND..." I snap my fingers and my minion disappears, with an idea in my head that I cannot shake off.

On this day, resting on the walls of the hero's guild. The villain hunter was born.
