Once upon a time, in a country that was so

desolate & dreary, named Blockbuster City,

there was a strong young man who has a hobby for combating

crimes. He had no money & no job, so he

filled his day with surrounding the city,

looked for strange people that lately

disturb villagers. He tried to find criminals

who harass him & other people. He was known

as a hero. He is powerful & he can bites any

criminals with just one punch. He was named

Carlo Western. 1

2

He lived in simple rented flat, which was the only residence

available in the town. He had no job too so, he often got into trouble with the rent money collectors who was fierce. One night, someone knocked his door. It was the old woman, the

owner of the rented flat, “You have to pay your rent as soon as possible, Carl! I’ll give you

deadline until 2 am, the day after tomorrow. I’ll be here! If you can’t pay your rent,

you’ll be excluded from this flat & you’ll sleep under

the bridge!” said the old woman. “I got it!“, Carlo answered.

3

Sometimes, the old woman sent gangsters to threat

him, in order to force Carlo to pay his rent. Frequently,

he was beaten by the gangsters because he could

not pay the rent on time, but he always managed to find ways to avoid them.

4

In the town where he was staying, Carlo didn’t have any friend or family, except an old

tailor called Mr. Jack, who contracted at a stall near his

flat. They often talk & lament about the problems in their life. They complained about the crime in the city which

increasing lately.

“This town has become horrible. It’s not safe

anymore. There are too many criminals are here. Start from strange people & fugitives roaming on,

until some thief who stole small trading stalls’

license.”, Mr. Jack explained.“Yes. There are too many stalls built, but almost all

of them closed & bankrupted. The rental

price for trading was too expensive. Residents in

the town were rarely left the house & rarely

spoken. Unemployment increased. Many people were moving to another

city. It’s such a disaster!“ Carlo answered.

5

Mr. Jack had the same fate with Carlo. He often visited by the debt

collector. The deadline for payment of his rent was 5 more days left. The tailor grumbled about the matter to

Carlo.

“Some debt collectors meet me today, Carl. I

was afraid. The deadline to pay off is 5 more days ahead. I can’t imagine

how to pay that.”, said Mr. Jack.

6

Carlo felt so sad for Mr. Jack. He felt required to help the tailor out of the trouble that happened. The

instinct of heroism to fight crime inside Carlo emerged. Combined with the condition of many stalls

which closed in the city, Carlo determined to investigate all of

these disasters.

7

Supplied with strength, courage, and ingenuity, Carlo was trying to investigate who was the owner of

the rented in this mysterious town. Mr. Jack gave the address of the debt collectors’ headquarters to

Carlo.“Mr. Jack, do you know

where is their address?” Carlo asked.

“Yes, I have their calling card. Here you are.“ said Mr

tailor. Then, he gave it to Carlo.

8

Carlo immediately conducted an investigation & hunted for

information. Carlo rushed to the location of the debt collectors’

headquarters based on the address that was given by Mr. Jack. The area of the debt collectors’ headquarters was very quiet & scary. There was a

man dressed in black passed him by.

9

Carlo has already passed several roads. He stopped right in front of the boarding house complex near the debt collectors’ headquarters.

He asked each person & the occupants of the room who were in

boarding house. “Excuse me? Can you tell me where the owner of

the trading market’s house is?“, Carlo asked.

“I’m sorry.”, the residents there ignored Carlo’s question.

10

Carlo was annoyed. He challenged them to do a fight. Eventually he had managed to

beat every occupant of boarding house that actually

the fugitives. He can eliminate all the residents of the boarding house who

apparently are criminals & fugitives at once.

11

Finally, Carlo found the debt collector. Carlo immediately

requested to the debt collector to restore the license contract stall of

Mr. Jack & to reduce the cost of rented flat, also trading stalls at

the town. He explained about the situation at the town, strange

creatures, & fugitives roaming on until some thief who stole small trading stalls’ license. Then, he asked them to prevent these

disasters.

12

“Sir, you must listen to me. This country has become

horrible. There are too many criminals, too many

bankrupted merchant. You must stop this condition!”,

complained Carlo. After some time Carlo took some words of complaint, the debt collector refused

him. “ I won’t do that. It didn’t help me earn money. “, the

debt collector answered.

13

Carlo didn’t satisfy with the decision of the debt collector. With his power, Carlo had torn the debt collector

clothes which were worn during the argument with Carlo. Before the fight, the debt collector turned into a strong

yet funny pink koi. Carlo was taunting him, “Hey! You look like hentai. Hahaha!“.

14

The debt collector got very mad. Finally, Carlo won the

fight. Carlo was able to get back the trading license stall of the

Mr. Jack.

15

16

Carlo was thinking to bring all his catch to old woman so that he can pay off, because he have

defeated all those criminals that might been able to hurt

that old woman.

All the criminals who had been defeated by Carlo

was tied & pulled within one. Carlo was thinking to pay off all his debts to the old woman who lived at the first floor of his flat, the owner of his rented

flat.

Carlo arrived to flat. He knocked the door & smiled

happily, because he thought the debt would be paid off with

catching the fugitives.

Carlo was unlucky. Carlo was expelled by old woman instead, because the fugitives were the

messengers of the old woman, who had been the source of her income.

Carlo expelled from his flat too.“CARLO! HOW COULD YOU

DO THIS?! They are the messengers of my

income!! You are stupid! Get out from my flat!”, the

old woman screamed.17

Superhero finally faced the disappointment. Even got

expelled, he still had spirit. He immediately rushed to the Mr. Jack stalls to tell

what happened & restore the trade license. Carlo didn’t have any place to stay longer, but the Mr. Jack helped Carlo, with letting him stayed at his

house.

18

Mr. Jack felt that he had to take a rest first. He was thinking to

close his stalls. Carlo immediately rejected that. He

didn’t agree, because there would be no one to talk

together anymore, no one to sew his clothes if it was torn,

and no one would took care of him, like the tailor did.

“Mr jack, you can’t leave me! You’re the

only person I can trust. How could you do this

to me?”, said Carlo. 19

That’s his decision. “I’m sorry, Carl. I’m just too old to do job. I have to enjoy my life. I have decided to live at the coastline area. I know you’re a strong man.

Take care yourself.”, said Mr. Jack.

20

Before he closing his stall, he gave his handmade

superhero clothes to Carlo. The costume has Carlo’s

favourite colour, white. Carlo gladly accepted that. He felt so happy yet sad because of the Mr. Jack was leaving. “I will not forget you Mr jack. Find your

own happiness!”, Carlo screamed.

21

Finally, he had become a real superhero with that costume.

Carlo went away to fix the world, whether Mr. Jack live

happily near the coastline. They parted with forced forever.
