Justin was a good, smart, dreamy boy who always played with his favourite toys, superheroes.
Justin’s parents thought he was an extraordinary child because he listened, did very well in school, and was respectful.

Even though Justin was a good kid, he had a problem: his eating habits. The only things he liked to eat were junk food and sweets. Despite everyone in his family trying to encourage him to eat healthier foods, the boy always refused.

One day, Justin’s mother saw her son watching his favourite series, Crashie, the best hero ever. She was tired of offering him fruits and vegetables without any results.
At that moment, she thought of preparing a salad and telling her son that if he ate it, he could be as big and strong as Crashie.

When the salad was ready, Justin’s mother called him. When he sat at the table, she said, “Have you ever considered that Crashie is probably healthy and powerful because he eats vegetables? Only someone who eats really well could be so amazing. Maybe if you do that, you could save the world like him!”
Hearing that, Justin got excited, but as soon as he saw his plate full of salad, he forgot his joy. “Of course not,” he said. “Surely Crashie is strong and fast because he gets lots of sugar and fast food!”

When Justin’s mother heard this, she walked away, feeling very upset and disappointed that her plan had not worked. As soon as she left, Justin went to the cupboard, grabbed the sweets his mother had stored there, and treated himself to a big treat.

That same day at bedtime, Justin brushed his hair, bid his mother goodnight, and went to bed. He lay down, thinking about the new episodes of Crashie he would watch the next morning. With that in mind, he soon fell asleep.

Suddenly, Justin saw himself in the middle of a city. He could hear a big roar, and the sun disappeared behind the enormous shadow of a giant robot, which scared the boy very much.
Just when Justin felt helpless, a light broke through the city at the same time as a loud “Fear not!” was heard. It was followed by the figure of Crashie in the sky. Justin was filled with excitement.

Thus began an incredible fight that ended with the robot falling to the ground, and Crashie smiled victoriously. Then he approached Justin and said, “You’re Justin? I’ve been looking for you. Do you want to come with me?”
Justin was thrilled to have his superhero say something like that to him. He agreed and followed Crashie immediately.

Arriving at Crashie’s base, Justin was impressed. The space was filled with shields and trophies, confirming that Crashie was indeed a great hero, and now they were together.

At that moment, Crashie began to tell him that he was going through a tough battle against his worst enemy, the great robot. It had created an army of robots to fight against him, and that was why he had sought him out.
However, he had to tell him his biggest secret first. The source of his powers was his food. If Crashie ate greens and vegetables, he could fly; if he ate fresh fruit and nuts, he could be incredibly fast and have super strength; and if he ate some carrots, his vision would be as powerful as laser rays. However, if he ate doughnuts, he lost his powers, and when he ate processed food such as hamburgers, sausages, or ketchup, he became much weaker.

Justin couldn’t believe what Crashie was saying. Then, the superhero gave him a plate of fruit to see for himself. Justin agreed to try it to prove to Crashie that his powers couldn’t come from something like healthy food.
As soon as he swallowed the first bite of apples, which, to his surprise, did not taste as terrible as he imagined, Justin felt great energy flowing through his body. He saw that he could effortlessly lift a huge weight that Crashie had in his gym. This reminded Justin of what his mother had told him at the dinner table at home.

Realising what he could do just by eating some fruit, Justin understood that Crashie was telling the truth. They discussed the plan to defeat the robots while Justin ate all the healthy food that Crashie gave him.

When everything was ready, the superheroes headed for the villains’ hideout. Crashie let Justin make his first big entrance, taking a strong swing with the super strength he had gained from the fruit salad.

The large army of villains began to fight with Justin. He quickly defeated them with his new superpowers, while Crashie searched for his boss to defeat him.

After defeating the villains, Justin heard Crashie calling him. He rushed to the call and found Crashie holding the robot. “Take the last blow to defeat it while I immobilise it,” Crashie said.
Justin followed his instructions and launched a superkick to finally defeat the robot.
At that moment, Crashie thanked Justin for being the best partner he could have. After telling Justin that he hoped Justin understood how important good nutrition was, he told him that now he had to go back home.

Suddenly, Justin heard his bedroom alarm go off. He could tell that it had all been a dream, the best dream of his life.
Then, after brushing his teeth, Justin went to the kitchen, where his mom was cooking breakfast. When he saw her, he gave her a big hug. “You were right, Mom. Healthy food is not as bad as I thought. It’s even tasty. You know what? I’ll have fruit for breakfast today.”

From that day on, Justin was encouraged to try every healthy thing his mom showed him and enjoyed fantasising about what power he could get. His mom never understood the reason for Justin’s big change. Justin always told her it was a secret for superheroes like him. She was a happy mom now. She knew her son would always be as strong and healthy as Crashie.
