Speed Demon (story challenge 22)
The familiar logo appears in the sky, glowing against the clouds. A cheer ripples among the crowd - their hero will stop the man from jumping. Two seconds later, the neon blue Dodge Viper roars into the square.
“Gosh, he really did get here fast”, exclaims a cop.
“Duh, why d'ya think they call him Speed Demon?” replies his friend.

| You can't beat a bit of super-heroism in a piece like this. Loved the final comment by the friend. |

My thought upon reading was that a cheer should 'rise' from the crowd (just imo), not ripple, but the situation is apt and the hero on time to save the day.
Tight write, great car (as Lord Jim points out) and a new super hero is made.
Thank you for the read, Icy

Nice set-up, then a twist, Icy. Not a bad choice for a car, that's for sure.
Excellent write in 60 words. |
