The Warm Fire

Firebug, a villain turned man asking questions.

Ever since Firebug was released from prison; he has questioned his life choices.

" Should I continue with being a villain? "

Firebug noticed a homeless man shaking from the cold.

Firebug walked over, and activated his powers.

" Thank you, sir " said the old homeless man, as he warmed his hands by Firebug's fire.

" You have questions, " said the old man.

" How did you know? "

" We old folk always know, " said the old man with a warm smile.

Firebug giggled.

" I am not a good guy… " said Firebug after a pause.

" You are being kind to me "

" First time for everything "

The two men laughed.

The old man placed his hand on Firebug's shoulder.

" Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. So don't be too quick to give up "

An explosion could now be heard.

Firebug looked towards the explosion, he then looked at the old man.

" Go "

Firebug made a campfire for the old man. He then ran off towards the trouble; aiding the nearby heroes and police with stopping the villains.

The fire changed that day. It no longer hurt upon touch, but it instead brought warmth.
