How To Distract East And West?

Previously, in the adventures of The World’s Superheroes series, 2 of our main characters temporarily forget / ignore the Evil Enemy as they get into a discussion on nicknames and terms of endearment. Now, they’re supposed to be talking about the whereabouts of their fellow Superheroes, but, once again, they are distracted (but, hey, what’s new?).

“Now, where are my other sidekicks, North and South? They’re Superheroes and they should be here too even if they’re not as awesome as me ‘cause, you know, I’m the ‘super special awesome’ Leader.”

“Once again, you are not the Leader of The World’s Superheroes, my dear Pumpkin, and you do not have sidekicks.”

“Eww, absolutely no to Pumpkin, East. Rejected. Don’t call me that. Just don’t.”

“Very well.”

“Great. Now, about North and South, wonder where they are?”

“I do not know, Cherry. I think-”

“Whoah, whoah, whoah. Hold up there, East. What did you just call me?”

“Cherry. You do not like it?”

“No way. Absolutely not. Just no. Rejected. Don’t even think about it. Uff.”

“And may I ask what is so wrong about being called ‘cherry’?”

“Are you kidding me? That’s not the least bit heroic or awesome. Of course, I don’t like it.”
