A/N: Yay! Last chapter! By the way, the song is "Hero" by Nickelback. I also do not own that.
Chapter Ten:
The Following Morning…
Harold slowly opened his eyes to see that he was in a bed in Nurse Leslie's office. He noticed that he had bandages on parts of his arms and head. Harold then remembered how he got in there; that black substance absorbed him and he couldn't get control of it. It was as though the substance amplified and fed on his aggression.
He saw the door open and Lazlo came in with some flowers the campers wanted to give him. "Hey Harold, you're awake! How are ya feeling?" Lazlo asked.
Harold spoke back, "Oh, I'm fine. Gee, we never really talked a lot after the whole 'Cabin Leader' thing…" Lazlo then added, "Yeah I remember that, man, that pinball machine was awesome…" Harold then made sure no one else could hear them. "But Lazlo," he whispered, "I know your secret now, you're Spider Monkey!"
Lazlo's face turned into a bit of a frown, he sighed and said, "…Yes, it's true, I'm Spider Monkey." Harold said back, "I really didn't mean to attack you back there, that black stuff made me do it, I swear!"
"It's alright Harold; I'm a very forgiving guy." Lazlo said.
"But, I was just so jealous of you, or Spider Monkey, taking a lot of the attention. I just got jealous. I'm sorry. But I didn't mean for the black stuff to get on me." Harold said.
Lazlo then got an idea, "You know, I've heard once that you always wanted to be a super hero. Well I've got an idea that'll help you get that popularity you deserve…"
Later that Day…
I'm so high. I can
hear heaven.
I'm so high. I can hear heaven.
Oh but heaven, no
heaven don't hear me.
The Bean Scouts were all outside on the camp grounds doing whatever it is they like to do during the day, when Dave yelled, "Look, up there, its Spider Monkey again!" With the call out, everyone started waving and cheering for their hero. Spider Monkey wove back at them, but he was so distracted with the Beans, that he forgot about the tree branch that he then hit.
Fortunately, this was all a part of Lazlo's idea he had earlier, he threw his head back just as he neared it, but made it look like he got hit and got knocked unconscious.
He fell into the lake, and the other Beans looked on worried. "Oh no! Who's gonna save him?!" Samson yelled.
"Fear not fellow scout, for I will!" cried a voice behind them. They all turned around to see Harold wearing yellow gloves and boots, and on his head and around his waist were bananas.
Harold continued, "Because, I'm Captain Banana Pants!"
And they say that a
hero could save us.
I'm not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll
hold on to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
"Are you serious Harold?" Edward asked, "What can you possibly do to save a real hero?"
"Harold answered, "Well Spider Monkey once said that it doesn't matter what you are, anyone can be a hero. Now stand back guys! I'm coming Spider Monkey!"
Someone told me that
love would all save us.
But how can that be, look what love gave
us.
A world full of killing, n' blood-spilling
that world never
came.
Harold rushed past the Beans and jumped into the water. From there he started to swim out to the disguised Lazlo. Lazlo was however holding his breath for the act.
And they say that a
hero could save us.
I'm not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll
hold on to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
Harold continued to swim out to Spider Monkey, leaving a trail of banana peels behind him in the water. At last, the normal hero reached the super hero and dragged him back to the shore.
Now that the world
isn't ending,
it's love that I'm sending to you.
It isn't
the love of a hero,
and that's why I fear it won't do.
Spider Monkey, pretended to, cough up water as he was brought to land. He sat up and saw that Captain Banana Pants brought him back. "I can't believe you actually saved me! Now I know what it's like the other way around…"
Spider Monkey got back on his feet and shook Harold's hand, "Why thank you fellow super hero! You are now another hero of this camp! And that's coming from your friendly neighborhood Spider Monkey!"
And they say that a
hero could save us.
I'm not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll
hold on to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
Spider Monkey zipped away into the woods, after that, the Beans suddenly started to cheer for Captain Banana Pants. Harold was surprised at how much recognition he now had amongst his fellow Beans. As they gathered around him and shook his hand, Harold looked up at a tree branch. On it was Lazlo, without his mask, looking down at him. They gave each other a thumbs up.

Lazlo then heard police sirens coming from the Prickly Pines Bank, and thus he put his mask back on and swung out to the town.

By the time Lazlo got there, it was now night time. The police had the bank surrounded, no doubt a bank holdup. Lazlo knew he had to do something before someone got hurt, or worse.
He swung in through the back door, and took action by zipping one of the robbers to the wall. The others took notice and started to shoot at him. This wasn't a big deal to Spider Monkey though, as he simply dodged the bullets and zipped the other robbers to the wall as well.
Once he made sure he got all of the robbers and that the hostages were all safe, he fled before the police could catch him. Lazlo made his way to another building near the bank, and made sure that the police apprehended the suspects. He then fled into cover and took his mask off.

"Whew! Who knew that being a super hero and a Bean Scout could be hard business?" He said with a smile.
A/N: And there you have it! Lazlo has saved the town once more. Now I've got several other stories to come up with, even two stories that take place after this one! Now Review!
