Transcript: BREAKING NEWS! The only problem was that I had no way out without everyone seeing me leave. I was stuck. I was panicking... until something caught my attention: an open window. I knew I had never used my power in public, but desperate times calls for desperate measures. And so in a second, I had left. I flew all the way over to the bank and broke in through the side of the building. These robbers didn't know what hit them. Next thing you know, all five are tied up and I was back with my Jessica. Everyone was safe. By Derek Pinto and Jazlynn Gee The Tale of Business Brandon Amy: Wow. That is incredible. Well, let me ask you this: What do you think caused you to let out your secret? I mean, you've been hiding it for years, but today you decided to show the whole world. Can you speak a little more about that? Brandon: Yeah I've been hiding my power for a long time now but when I got that text, it reminded me of the time back when I was a child and my parents and I were robbed at gunpoint. I was told not to use my power and just let them take everything. I did not want to have these people suffer the same way I did. I had to prevent the robbery, I had to be strong; I had to save everybody. Amy: So it was based off of your own experience that led you to that bank? Brandon: Yes. I love to help and when someone is in need - especially in a situation like this - I'm always there to do whatever I possibly can. I care deeply about the safety of the people I love, including my community. My power just gave me a little boost. Amy: Alright. Thank you so much Brandon and I hope you have a good rest of the day. Well you heard it from the man himself. Brandon swooped in and saved the day - literally. Luckily, no one got hurt and there were only minor damages. However, the bank will be closed tomorrow, but we do have a new hero flying through the sky! Live from Downtown San Francisco, I'm Amy from WWJD News, Channel 2. At the age of 3, Brandon was diagnosed with Flymatitus, a very rare disease giving Brandon the ability to control the air around him and fly. After many years of random bursts and treatment, Brandon was finally able to control it, but decided to keep it a secret in fear of being looked at and treated differently by his peers. Today, Brandon happily lives in the Sunset district of San Francisco with his fiance, Jessica, and his two dogs, Curry and Steph. He is the proud owner of a local business firm, known as the "Busy Bees-nis." Living the ordinary life, Brandon hoped to hide his power forever, until today where a miracle occurred. Brandon, why don't you tell us a little bit about what just happened? How did it all come down? Thanks Jeff. It's Amy here of WWJD News. I'm standing outside of the bank where an attempted robbery just occurred. Five armed men were trying to access the vaults until something - no, someone - stopped them... let's meet this "someone." Meet Brandon An unusual bank robbery took place in Downtown San Francisco earlier today, in which a group of teenage gang members attempted to rob a Wells Fargo Bank. More troubling: the armed men blindfolded the hostages and threatened to kill each and every one of them until they were given their requests. Everything seemed to be going horribly until suddenly, the side of the building burst and one man flew in and single-handedly defeated the robbers, saving all the hostages. These five men were then escorted into S.W.A.T. cars and taken into custody. We had the opportunity to talk to this "flying" man, who goes by the name Brandon. Amy, what can you tell us about the events that just occurred? BREAKING NEWS! So this is what happened: I was at a very important meeting with a client of mine. We decided to turn on the TV and the first thing that came up was a news report about a robbery taking place at a bank a few block from my building. While everyone else tuned this out, I stood there wondering what I should do. I thought to leave it to the police, but suddenly I got a text from my fiance saying, "Help! S.O.S. I'm at the bank... trouble... please come quick! They're everywhere." I didn't know what to do. This was a very important meeting that could determine the future of my firm, but at the same time my fiancee and many others' lives were in danger. Then, I decided what I must do: save the bank.
