The Story of Hercules
Once upon a time there lived a god named Zeus. Zeus had a wife who had a new born baby. The baby’s name was Hercules.
Hades wanted to rule Olympus and overthrow Zeus. Hades told his two servants to give a potion to Hercules which would change Hercules to a mortal and then kill him.
The servants only succeeded in making the baby drink everything except one drop. The baby was then found by an old couple before the servants could kill him. The boy grew strong and later found that his father was Zeus.
He traveled to Zeus’s temple and his father told him that in becoming a true hero can he become a god again and return to Olympus. As Hercules grew older he rid the world of many monsters relieving the people of their fear. After he became famous and he thought he was a true hero, he went back to his father’s temple to ask his father if he could come back to Olympus. To his great disappointment, he wasn’t considered a true hero yet.
Hercules wondered at this. Why was it that he rid the world of many monsters and he still wasn’t a hero? In the end he found that to be a true hero takes true love and that true love would lead to sacrificing his life for another person.
The people who went into the building in 9/11 to save the people in the building are true heroes because they had genuine love and went into the building to save the people even though they knew they could die. The people sacrificed themselves to save other people just like Hercules did. That is why the people who went into the building are true heroes.
