Hey! My name's Justin! If you're a hero reading this, I just wanna say thank you so much for all the sacrifices you make, especially if you do hero work in Gothic City. It's because of people like you that I still have my mom and dad with me. I lost a sister a while back, but that was because of cancer, it wasn't anything you could've stopped. Anyway, if you read all of this, thank you for taking time to hear the little guy out, and thank you for protecting people like me.
If you're not a hero, and you're reading this, I'm not judging you or anything, but I guess I would ask, do you have the ability to do something? And if so, how are you using that ability. I know a lot of people who needed a hero that never came, and who knows? Maybe you could be that hero for just one person. And yeah, maybe you're right to think you wouldn't be noticed by everyone, or famous, but you'd be noticed by them. By the person you save. You might not be the person that's loved by the whole world, but for one person, maybe you could save their world.
And to the villains reading this... screw you. In a world where there are so many who aren't as lucky as you in their lot in life, instead of helping them, you went as far as believing that luck was actually the deciding factor in who's important. Who was born into a rich family? They're the ones you care about, right? The war veteran living on the streets because he can't find work when he only has one arm, he doesn't matter, right? The one who can blow up a moon with a thought, he's the one you wanna be friends with? The guy has to go to the gym just to get to where he can bench 300 pounds, he's a worthless weakling, right? If they can help me, they're the ones who matter. You sicken me. To think of all the people you could've lifted out of the pits of life, and instead, you dig those pits. I hope your end is a pit of your very own making.
---Sincerely,
Justin

Justin Lockley has no special abilities whatsoever. He does not carry an X-gene, he has no sort of special tech, and no magical being has ever bestowed any sort of destiny on him. He is not a special agent of any kind, and he is not an expert of any type of weaponry. He's just a regular, clumsy kid whose skill with a blade goes as far as being able to not drop a butter knife on his toe while buttering his toast. But while it's others, namely the heroes, who are noticed in the middle of a crisis, people like Justin are often the reason they appear in the first place. Whether it's to keep a little one from having to go through the pain they did, or simply to make life a living nightmare for those who would hurt the defenseless, it's the little guy they fight for more often than not. And Justin is that little guy.
