Here’s a teensy weensy sample talking about the concept of ‘the Chosen One’, and how much of a cliche it is. Author S.E. Zbasnik, muses on what might happen if the all powerful ‘they’ picked the wrong chosen one. They might find that:

Utter rubbish, no-one would choose a sentient piece of bread as the chosen one in error. That would be his weapon, ready to be overtoasted to a rock hard piece of charcoal that he/she then uses to write to the ruler of the next door Kingdom and request a loan of his Armies.
Alternately, he’ll us it like a Japanese throwing star and decapitate the baddie. Case solved !
