User blog:TheToughGuy/Transferred To Bullworth (TheToughGuy): Prologue

What is it that makes a hero? Do heroes always do good for other people without any selfish reasons? Or is there always something behind their motive to help other people?

For me, I kinda see myself as being a little selfish. I went after the football team just because they dug deep into my past. All because they knew what I did back at my old school. I wanted to hurt them all. I wanted to hurt Jake Summers. And most of all, I wanted to hurt them where it hurt the most: with their sports program.

Of course, that sounds totally selfish. But the praise that I was getting for doing such a thing really made it worth it. The Jocks may have hated me for what I was trying to do, but everyone else seemed to praise me for it. The Nerds wanted to be friends, the Bullies thought I was cool, the Preps bet amongst themselves whether I would fail or not, and the Greasers saw this as an opportunity to become kings of the school.

All and all, almost everyone thought of me as being a hero, but for the wrong reasons. And John Maicel knew this. With his "talents", he tried to use this as an opportunity to get what he wanted. Who ever thought that being a hero would be hard? Cameron did say that it would be a difficult task, but I never thought it would get this hard.

My name Greg Winston, and this is my story.
