Marvel: We Are Venom

* Boom! * * Boom! * * Boom! * * Boom! *

Aunt Nat dropped a mountain of books on a small table where I am sitting.

"Understood? Good fighting boys are only popular until the end of elementary school! When you reach high school, your intellect is what makes you popular!" Aunt Nat said to me in a bossy pose.

Again? I want to know what's this popularity fixation is! It's not like I'm going to go to high school! I live on a hill!

"Are you okay, Aunt Nat?" I asked feeling a little strange. How did she recover from all those injuries in just one day? Is she even human!? And where did she get these new clothes from? As far as I know, she didn't store clothes in this house, especially jeans and a leather jacket ...

"Hmm? I'm fine, don't try to change the subject!"

"It's not like I'm trying to change the subject ..." I mumbled under my breath.

"Anyway, read books, try to read anything that catches your interest. That source of knowledge and life experience will be your secret to winning in life! If you want to read something let me know, I don't care if it's Manga. I will buy what you want. Read as much as you want." She said to me as she sat on the couch.

Why is she being so kind all of a sudden? Maybe these books are some ninja trap?

"You don't have to be so suspicious; I didn't put anything dangerous in the books." She said with a small playful smile.

"Advanced mathematics, the universe of numbers?" I said to myself out loud, what kind of ridiculous title was that? Mathematics? It's that number thing, right? I remember my mom taught me a little bit about it when I was younger, it shouldn't be that difficult, right?

I opened the book and started reading, but soon I get several question marks in my head. What is this!? Just looking at all these numbers will give me a headache!

"The books are divided into basic, intermediate and advanced levels. The book you picked up is the advanced level book, you can't understand it if you don't read the others." She said to me with a smiling face as she lay on the couch in a sloppy position.

"I understand." I nodded at her and looked for a book ... But how do I know which is the basic book!?

"What is the basic book?"

"Basic knowledge books are marked with the blue label, the intermediate ones with the yellow label, and the advanced ones with the red label."

Ohh, was she talking about these tapes? Wait...

"Why didn't you tell me that before?"

"Why didn't you ask?" she said to me with a confused face.

True ... I put the book I'm holding in my hand beside me and started looking for other books to read, I picked up a book called 'What if you were Captain America?', Another ridiculous title.

Looking at the cover image of the book, I saw a man holding a shield wearing a glued suit. Who is this guy? Why is he wearing an outfit so close to his body? Does he have weird fetishes like that old eye patch?

"Who is Captain America?" I ask Aunt Natasha who was taking off her leather jacket and wearing only jeans and a black T-shirt.

"Ohh, don't you know who Captain America is? How rare ... take that book over there and read a little, it tells a little about Captain America's life." She said to me with a surprised face.

What? Should meeting Captain America be common? Is he a celebrity or something?

I do as she said and picked up a thick black book with the title "Steve Rogers, Captain America."

I started reading about Steve Rogers' life, at first I wasn't paying much attention to his life, but soon I found myself fascinated by Steve's way of life. It was incredible that even with his weakened and weak body he wanted to help others, it was incredible to see how he fought against the Nazis for freedom, he really is an incredible person, such an incredible person existed in this world? I'm really looking forward to seeing the world now!

After spending I don't know how much time reading the biography of Steve Rogers, Captain America, I finally got to the last page of the book, and on the last page, I found a line from Captain America.

"We must all live in the real world ... And sometimes, that world can be quite cruel. But it's the [American] dream ... Hope ... That makes reality worth living for. In the early 1940s, I made a personal commitment to defend the Dream ... And as long as the dream remains, even if partially incomplete, I cannot abandon it!"

"Wooow!! He is incredible!!" I screamed out loud waking up Aunt Nat who was apparently asleep.

"It is not? He's amazing, do you want to be like him?" Aunt Nat asked me with serious eyes as she sat on the couch.

"What are you talking about?" I asked a little confused.

"Huh?" apparently it was not the answer she wanted, after all, she was looking at me with a very confused expression now.

"I don't want to be like him, Captain America is incredible, he is an example to follow, but he is also a fool."

"You can explain better?" She asked seriously. Huh? Where did her usual prankster go? Weird...

"You see, he fought World War II, right? From his biography, I can see very well that this war was horrible ... At that moment the world needed a hero, they needed a 'Captain America', but at what cost? Steve Rogers is a hero, the greatest of all heroes, but he is also a soldier who will never be able to leave the war, he will never be able to raise a family, and even if he does raise a family, he will never be able to protect his family, after all, he will have to be saving other people ... If being a hero is someone who sacrifices himself for other people and does not earn anything in return, if being a hero is someone who lets his loved ones die in favor of other people he has never seen in his life, if being a hero means that I must do work for free and not earn anything in return besides a miserable 'thank you', I don't want to be a hero.
