Chappie 4
AN: Hello everyone! Sorry for the late update, I got back from a interstate camp. Please feel free to review and tell me what you think, especially when you feel like the quality of the story is unsatisfactory or if you think it can be improved.
I read some one punch manga recently and it was great, Yusuke Murata is really talented.
Ps, thank you everyone who reviewed, followed and favorited, it really means a lot to me who haven't really written anything more than a thousand word stories.
Disclaimer: I do not own One punch man, it belongs to its respective owners.

"How did this happen!" Sitch slammed his reports onto the table, glaring at a certain Blizzard and Genos,
"The monster was stronger than us, there was nothing we could do." Genos replied, mulling over the recordings and pictures of the fight, both Blizzard and he was obliterated.
"No! That was not how it happened Genos. My apologies Mr director, the monster just got lucky! Just give us some more time and we can destroy it!"
"Really Blizzard? It didn't seem lucky to me, the reporters got everything on video, and-" Sitch paused, looking at Genos and then Blizzard, "it took both of you out in one hit, you say it got lucky, but I beg to differ. Did that monster nearly vaporise Genos in one hit just by being lucky?" Fubuki looked away. " I thought not, I shall raise the bounty and call for a S-class meeting in the HQ," Fubuki perked up,
"Does that mean I can come?"
"No"
"Please?"
"Still no."

Saitama has never felt true frustration, a vile emotion that stirred and boiled in ones stomach before poisoning the mind, clouding judgement and wreaking havoc. But that was soon changed, his last hoodie was ripped, his cactus just died and there was a mosquito annoying him again. Saitama was truly at a breaking point. He was also broke, had no money for clothes, all in all no better than when he started his training. 'Was all that training and my loss of humanity truly in vain?For nothing?' Saitama clenched his teeth.
"Those scum, I'll crush them, they will never harass me again!" Saitama shrugged on his now torn hoodie and mask and set out to finally extract his revenge.
-2 hours later-
Saitama felt lost, he had no idea that the head quarters of that annoying lady and robot guy was located all the way in city A! He was in City Z and he was so hopeless with maps that he could probably never find where city A was. Exasperated and bored again, he began to head back, only to stop and and listen to an advertisement broadcast, "The new public transportation system built by Metal Knight (Class S) allows free transportation anywhere, any city any town. We'll get you where you want to be, safe from monsters," the message blared out from speakers across the inhabited zones of city Z. Saitama blinked in surprise behind his mask, relieved, he ambled towards the nearest bus stop and waited. Soon a sleek automated bus arrived and opened its doors invitingly, Saitama smiled and jumped in, a sick grin on his face. Once inside Saitama looked around in mild interest, noting the clean white interior and various screens with information regarding the hero association before the onboard AI addressed him.
"Where is your destination?"
"City A Hero association,"
"Are you traveling as a hero or visitor?"
"Visitor,"
"May I have your name?"
"Saitama,"
"Good morning Mister Saitama, we will be arriving in half an hour, please enjoy your visit,"
"I'm sure I will,"

Metal knight frowned, one of his monitors flashed in warning, a monster has just used the new transportation system and the onboard ai has scaled and categorised the monster. It was an unidentifiable threat level probably too low to measure and was headed to the hero association HQ. 'Why is it headed here? No matter, cocky wolf threat monsters, no big deal, it'll be good training exercise for the security team, they are overpaid and growing fat anyway.' Bofoi wondered,
"Victoria, notify the security team and let it through,"
"As you wish Dr Bofoi," the AI replied smoothly.
"Oh and order me a coffee please,"
"Black as usual?"
"Yes,"
"Oh and make sure to record how the security team fares against a weak monster,"
"Done, although, should I notify any residential heroes of the monster's presence?"
"No need, they are all A-class, the association don't pay them so much just to face wolf threats," Bofoi mumbled,
"Then it is settled. However, Dr Bofoi, the HA has called a class-S meeting in around half an hour, would you like me to schedule that for you?"
"A full meeting? What is it regarding?" Bofoi asked, intrigued
"Yes, a full meeting was organised by Sitch to address the recent monster which defeated Genos and Blizzard,"
"I'm not going, there is no need for me to attend trivial matters. Who will be attending though?"
"Mostly everyone, excluding you, Blast and Mr King,"
"Hm, okay, I need to get back to work,"
"Have a lovely day Doctor,"
"…"

Saitama signed in relief, he could see the outlines of the Association HQ appear over the horizon, the source of all his annoyance and surprisingly he didn't get lost! Thanks to the friendly ai and transportation. He will probably scare the association a bit, maybe throw some punches before sneaking off with some clothes there along the way, there's gotta be people working in there wearing something his size right?
Before he knew it, the high speed carriage had entered a terminal and stopped, revealing bright lights, a plain platform and a number of security guards, looking more armed than normal and looking at his carriage. 'They couldn't of known I was coming right?' Saitama thought,' at least they didn't call the police on me' Saitama looked on in relief, the guards were only just security in white and blue uniforms.
ding!
"We have arrived, have a lovely visit Mr Saitama and make sure to visit our website if you have any complaints or suggestions," With those parting words, the carriage door slid open to reveal two dozen armed security guards and one confused Saitama,
"Are you guys supposed to point a gun at every visitor?" Saitama asked walking slowly forwards, starring comprehensively at a gun that looked suspiciously like a grenade launcher,
"Only at monsters," The guard holding the gun in question spat and turned off the safety,
"Oh….Right,"
