INTRODUCTION
Imagine having a superpower. Most people think of flying, super speed, super strength, reading minds or the mind power to move objects. We dream of having an ability that is beyond what we have in our real life.
When high school students asked Bill and Melinda Gates what one superpower they would pick, they chose more time and more energy. Why time and energy? Because with these resources, one can accomplish much more.
A superpower is, by definition, the extraordinary ability to do or accomplish something; and the superhero is the hero who possesses such a superior power. While the superheroes in this book have magical powers, what is most significant is the fact that they also possess qualities each and every one of us can as well.
The Gardener, a wise elderly man who hails from the Far East, dedicated his life to putting this league of superheroes together. He searched far and wide to find this all-star group with an all-inclusive combination of key strengths and capabilities. In Part 1, you’ll follow him through the Movie Script Excerpt as he introduces the heroes on the MI9 Team. In Part 2, learn more about each superhero (and supervillain) and the unique qualities that define each of them, and ourselves.

EXT. GARDEN - DAY
A GARDENER, dressed in all gray with a long beard, clips a Bonsai tree carefully. His face is obscured by branches and leaves. We can only clearly make out his hands as he removes branches. He is surrounded by beautiful plants, trees, and flowers.
GARDENER
Hello my friends and welcome. I am the Gardener, and I live here in this beautiful land.
The GARDENER walks to the other side of the tree, his face still covered.
GARDENER (CONT’D)
When I am not tending to my garden, I spend my days leading and training the MI9 Team. You ever heard of us?
A beat. The GARDENER waits.
GARDENER (CONT’D)
Well, it’s simple really. The MI9 Team exists to improve the world and spread good vibes. Our goal is to help people reach their full potential and empower individuals to make a difference.
The GARDENER turns and overlooks beautiful, majestic mountains. The
