  Bobby Rooster often watched his favorite superheroes on T.V. He liked to watch Superman, Batman, and Spiderman. But his favorite superhero was Green Lantern. He always admired the powerful ring that John wore. Here he was again watching his favorite episode of Superman and enjoying himself. ‘Oh, if I were a superhero’ he pondered. ‘I would help everyone and ensure that the town of Chickenville was 99.9% safe.’ The constant thoughts rang through his mind. He knew if he were given such an opportunity it would be his best wish come true. 
  He then looked at the time and realized it was geared toward 11:00 a.m. It was a Tuesday. Bobby Rooster somewhat liked Tuesdays because he had no work, but he often just did fun activities. Sometimes he went to the park, other times the movies, and sometimes he went and visited Mama. Today, he wondered what he should do seeing it was not yet twelve in the afternoon. He decided to go for a quick walk around the block. His apartment was not that far from the park. At the park, he could do fun activities but his best friend Stuart the rabbit was still out of town, so he decided against going to the park today. But he changed his mind a few moments later.
