Brains Over Brawn

                           Tonight it’s dark stormy on the street as Marcus thinks about how better his life would be if his parents haven’t died, how day after day how he thinks how long he can live on the streets eating food he constructed with scrap material. The sound of his stomach woke him up from his day dreaming, Marcus started to sing a melodious tune as he walked down the street looking at signs and posters. He stopped as a poster caught his eye; it read a challenge for fighting Juggernaut, “The One Man Army”. All Marcus saw was the 500,000 Keno (Gamma World Money) for if you survive a match against him and double that if you beat him. Marcus signed up immediately as he ran to the junkyard to train.

                           He overlooked one little detail, he had no special abilities or powers, but he thought about the I.Q. Test he took when he was six, he scored an I.Q. of over 200 at only 6!He thought he should be much smarter after ten years. He made it to the arena, eight blocks away from his usual hang out

As he got in the referee stated the only rule is to kill or disable your opponent from fighting. The referee yelled Fight! Juggernaut ran at Marcus yelling I’ll finish this in five minutes. Marcus leaped out of the way causing Juggernaut to crash into the steel wall. Marcus stood in awe as he saw that Juggernaut actually broke the wall. Juggernaut rushed towards Marcus punching him with a strong uppercut that broke his jaw. The strength of Juggernaut sended Marcus flying into a wall, then Juggernaut rushes towards Marcus while he is in a daze holding his broking jaw. He crashed into a wall that Marcus wasn’t on. Marcus looked down and saw the top of Juggernaut’s head. He realized that he was levitating. Surprised he used his new ability for an advantage by picking his opponent up high in the sky and dropped him head first. As Marcus thinks it’s over Juggernaut rushes after him, the audience begin to say that Juggernaut was about to use Chaotic Drive his finisher. Marcus used quick thinking to construct a gun out of the chunks of steel from the wall and quickly shoots juggernaut in his chest.

                           The announcer stated that Pipsqueak referring to Marcus as the winner and gave Marcus the prize money. The crowd cheered as Pipsqueak won. Ten years later Marcus has a family and is a multi-billionaire

due to his investment into his company he now owns. He’s living the good life thanks to his brain.
