[ WP ] The supervillains have won , and they turn out to be amazing leaders . The lead humanity into a golden age , eliminating poverty , war , and hunger . Now , the true supervillains are the superheroes , who want to tear it all down .

*Today, the Torrent Mission was cancelled after the terrorist organisation Justice League tried to destroy the rocket thrusters. No casualties were incurred, only the hopes and dreams of the pilots. NASA says that the launch window will be held off indefinitely until the stops come to an end. * 
 
 
 I closed the browser tab as my manager swung by, eyeing us in the call center. I re-opened my company's intranet and found the page with the partner contacts, opening up a new e-mail addressed to one of the dullards at Microsoft. 
 
 
 I did n't need to send him the news just yet, but I'm sure he was stuck in some stupid management meeting, or some cloud training on the newest updates to Office 365. It was him that was always bugging me about the conspiracies that Superman and Wonder Woman were originally superheroes, not the villains that we portray today. A man out of his age, three lines dug into his forehead signified that his battle against retirement had begun. 
 
 
 Either that or cigarettes were really starting to catch up. 
 
 
 Relaying the news bulletin, I send the email off, returning to the news channel. It was a live stream, concluding a report estimating the costs of the NASA delay. 
 
 
 *And now, a message from our President. * I clicked my headpiece to the maximum volume to get a better sound quality, fidgeting quietly while my manager made his rounds. 
 
 
 *The terrorist that made the United States weak before attempts to break out unity once more. We are united as one, and will not stand for this aggression. We will continue with our greatest efforts, putting our greatest minds to the test. Already being consulted is Dr. Doom. That is all I have to say. * 
 
 
 The news flash turned back to a voluptuous blonde, curvy from her chest downwards. It was n't the main reason that I watched this stream, but I'll be darned if I say that it was n't a compelling reason. *The Joke was not present due to his presence in the Middle East, helping the joint Chinese and Iranian group find the remnants of the remaining ISIS leaders. * 
 
 
 A slight knock on my desk gave me alarm to look behind me. `` Shame that they never took the Flash alive. You know I read his comics when I was your age?'' 
 
 
 It was my manager. He did n't look disappointed, if anything he looked surprised and rather jovial. `` Was he still a villain in your time?'' 
 
 
 `` A villain? No, but he sure was n't a hero. They made comics, movies and the whole nine yards, casting the Joker in all his various forms as the baddie. Always strange how life finds a way.'' Walking away nonchalantly, I breathe an air of relief.
