I wrote this a couple ofyears ago but it's still one of my favorites. Hope you like it!! Thee is a sequel to this one and if you want to read just ask.

In a hut not to far from a village a hero (who had outlived his heronss) was having a cup of tea.
A knock came at the door, and the hero opened it to find his arch enemy the villain!
The villain, had also outlived his evilness, and simply said, “The new villain has kicked me out! He says my ways are old and useless to him! He even said that my laugh was corny!
He kicked me out ;so I thought of you my arch enemy and knew you’d like to discuss things with me.”
The hero had been ready to take off his arch enemy’s head until the hero heard a tale that paralleled his own sad tale. The hero froze and then smiled a dimly sparkly smile.
“Ahh yes, my arch enemy I can sympathize. The new hero has also kicked me out and says my heroism isn’t needed anymore. I wasn’t ready to step down, and so I challenged him, sure I’d win. I was beaten and made a laughingstock.
He mocked my diction and my sparkly smile!”
The villain was nodding in sympathy and after the hero was through the villain gave the rest of his sad tale, “Yes my arch enemy, the new villain started giving reasons why he became a villain! His parents abandoned him when he was little! No one loved him! He kept going on and on about his abusive childhood. Liked I cared!! I told him back in my day when I was little you didn’t need reasons to be a villain. If you were evil you were born evil!
Nasty shock to the mother usually… but anyway I brought you a housewarming gift, chocolates!”
The hero smiled his slightly dim smile as he took and opened the box of chocolates and responded, “Come my arch enemy and share a cup of tea, and we’ll watch the babies save or destroy the world as we swap stories from our past.”
The arch enemy smiled a slightly dark smile and said, “I’d like that.

Um, may I have the dark chocolate one?”

I wrote this a couple ofyears ago but it's still one of my favorites. Hope you like it!! Thee is a sequel to this one and if you want to read just ask.

In a hut not to far from a village, a hero (who had outlived his heroism) was having a cup of tea.
A knock came at the door (no ",") and the hero opened it to find his arch enemy, the villain!
The villain, who had also outlived his evilness(", and") simply said, “The new villain has kicked me out! He says my ways are old and useless to him! He even said that my laugh was corny! (No new paragraph) He kicked me out, so I thought of you, my arch enemy and knew you’d like to discuss things with me.”
The hero had been ready to take off his arch enemy’s head until he (no need to say "hero" twice in the same sentence) heard a sad tale that paralleled his own (no "sad tale"). The hero froze and then smiled a dimly lit grin (no need to use "smile" twice in the same sentence).
“Ahh, yes, my arch enemy, I can sympathize. The new hero has also kicked me out and says my heroism isn’t needed anymore. I wasn’t ready to step down, and so I challenged him, sure I’d win. I was beaten and made a laughingstock. (No new paragraph) He mocked my diction and my sparkling smile!”
The villain was nodding in sympathy and after the hero was through the villain gave the rest of his sad tale.
“Yes my arch enemy, the new villain started giving reasons why he became a villain! His parents abandoned him when he was little! No one loved him! He kept going on and on about his abusive childhood. Liked I cared!! I told him back in my day when I was little you didn’t need reasons to be a villain. If you were evil you were born evil! (No new paragraph) Nasty shock to the mother usually… but anyway I brought you a housewarming gift. Chocolates!”
The hero smiled his (no "slightly") dimly lit smile as he took and opened the box of chocolates. He responded, “Come my arch enemy and share a cup of tea. We’ll watch the babies save or destroy the world as we swap stories from our past.”
“I’d like that." The arch enemy smiled a slightly dark smile and said, "Um, may I have the dark chocolate one?” (Sentence rearrangement)



The End


Hope you didn't mind. Just trying to teach you something. biggrin

Being a English major, I often proof read my work several times before I am satisfied. xd

I enjoyed it too 3nodding Although the writing felt stiff...This is probably because you wrote it in a hurry, yes? I think it just needs a rewrite to make it spiffy and it would be a fine short story.

<.< Thank you for correcting all the spell, Crystal... I notice most of it, but I hate going through to correct it all. It makes me feel like I'm nitpicking stressed
