King of the Mountain: Chapter Four: Don’t Challenge The King!
No one tells the King what to do, not even his friends!
I felt like Batman when he planned to take down the rest of the Justice League one member at a time. I knew all their secrets and weaknesses, but they also knew everything about me. The only advantage I had over them was that I was a better planner.
“Morning,” I said as I came downstairs.
I still could see that they were still upset.
“So, we are doing the cold shoulder thing?” I said as I nodded. “That’s a bit hypocritical, but okay.”
That got their attention, as most were eating breakfast at the table.
I grabbed the box of cereal and poured myself a bowl.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Kevin asked. He was still furious.
“Remind me,” I said as I looked at him. “Who has been in the middle of the circle more than anybody else?”
Everybody stopped and thought for a moment.
“Yup,” I stared right at Kevin. “So, you can get right on down from that high horse you are on.”
Kevin shook his head. “Low blow,” he said.
