SZbNAhL's Similarly Sibilant (if unpronouncable) Random Banter #223

A major part of the story is they aren't super heroes, they just think they are. Life is a sentient organism (think big biological computer with life forms as parts) that is essentially divine. In ancient times Earth was repeatedly invaded by aliens so Gaia gave some humans super powers and immortality to fight them. These are where our gods come from, all of which died once the aliens were gone and Gaia rescinded her powers. The supers are tearing things up, not realizing their existence is because another fleet is coming into the solar system.

I've still not worked out the full backstory for my 'supers', it's not really the point of the story and the supers themselves don't care. As far as anybody knows they just appeared one day, and can work out on which one.

It was probably a Tuesday.

We must never forget that with great power comes great energy. Or little time, I guess.

Look, it's as my grandma said. 'If you want great power be prepared for a shock from the massive charge'.
