Rough draft 1 Original opening thought for What is a Hero Anyways? (What I had written down)

My entire life, it's as if I had no purpose, no reason to live. I am at the very bottom in this world. Yet here I am standing, a simple human with no actual powers l, standing before an incredibly brutal and vile villain. All to save some people around me, who never gave anything but negativity towards me constantly. Now I am the powerless one standing while those with them are heartless in action. So now I, a typical mortal, is ready to fight against a super human so time can be bought for the real help to arrive. How long could I hold him off, will I even be able to gain even seconds for them to get here? Doesn't matter, if I waiver here, all those cornered behind me are done. for. I don't have any attributes for my mana to flow to, tho they claim I have a limitless flow, something unheard of yet still useless without a power. The only reason I got into this school was because I was invited on that one reasoning. Two years in now and I'm an outcast, and the only one with the will to fight. Two of our top seniors in the security were taken out so easily, regardless I have to try and protect, even if it cots me my life. That's what real heroes do right? Put your life in the way to save those with broken spirits who lost their will to battle, or are overwhelmed with fear. Anyone can be a hero if you have heart, right? Back to reality I suppose, he is making his move.

"Ahhaahhaha!!! All of you want to be heroes will perish here, hahahaa. Don't expect the real ones to make it in time, we have planned this perfectly. Hahaahaha, you all cower yet want to become saviors. Only one stands before me? You would have a small chance if you all weren't such cowards. Hahaahaa. Your top security didn't even let me warm up. PREPARE TO DIE!!!"

Screams emerge from behind me as this brute begins to build up for a powerful attack. Does he plan to takes us out with one strike, how do I stop this, how do I save everyone? I have never been in combat with a villain before. He clenches his fist and pulls it to his side for a terrifying build to strike. Sudden I can see his mana flow and concentrate, there is so much power building it's no wonder the seniors were taken out so easily. Everything is slow motion, the enemy lets out a horrific roar as they leap forward towards us, arm charge to wipe me, and everything behind. Are we all dead? Am I already dead? Then I remember what the professor was explaining. "What is within you, IS also what lays around you." A concept to either succeed in, or perish trying. All in full concentration, letting my body take its natural instincts. I begin to charge my mana as he did to match it as best I can with this savage animal trying to extinguish the future that lays behind me. "You won't be touching anyone!" Then with that I meet his fist with mine, all I have is pure mana, no power to feed it to. So I just release it as is, in hopes of some cancellation to absorb the quakes.

Powerful surges emit from the collision of our attacks, sending shockwaves in all directions. All I here tho is complete silence again, am I dead already? Why do I feel like I am in a void? All I can see is everything in it's mana form. I can see how much he is sending into his attack, I'll have to mimic it till I can get on opening. I begin to lose my footing as I am being pushed back, if I fall, its over. "I will match you with everything I can poses!" I begin to flow more direct and sync, not just random outburst. Our collision grows more violent, the ground and air begin to shake. I can feel his anger rising, he is going more berserk with his flow making it more chaotic and unstable. I am being pushed back with my feet dug in the ground as it crumbles. Suddenly I feel pressure from behind my legs, one of the students begins to brace my legs with the earth, fortifying my footing.
