1 DAY AFTER THE ATTACK: 12:00 PM
The ladds
The team of our misfits (except for D'vorah) are walking down a dark street, seeing a large building off to the dark outskirts of Mustafo, the building didn't look "bad", but it was better than the previous building, which was basically a trash can, Kabal had a box which neither Kano nor Erron knew where he got, Noob was around but camouflaged as a shadow, on a killing mood, just in case a hero appeared, Kano was writing on apiece of paper while Erron had his gun on stand by, ready to shoot.
It took a while before they arrived at the building, it was an abandoned school, apparently, according to Giran who recommended them the place, the building was shot down a long time ago after a serial killer murdered most of the school girls in the campus, according to the info he got, only one girl was left, a black haired girl with black eyes as well, apparently after all the other girls died the attacks stopped, of course the girl was suspected of doing it but there was no proof of it, Kano laughed internally at this, it was funny how incompetent the cops were.
They jumped over the closed metal gates of the school, it was easy for all of them to do so, Noob instead jumping over it he just teleported in, the school like the typical school, trees decorating the sides of the little path to the main doors dirty with a lot of cracks, they walked forward and in front of the entrance, the doors had chains and a lock over them, dirty and rusted, Kano simply used his laser eye shot to melt one side of the lock, forcing it to fall apart along with the chains, the door itself was so dirty that you couldn't see inside through the windows on it, kano grabbed the door and opened it, he struggled a bit as the door was left unattended for a very long time, the first thing they all saw was the lockers of the students, all dusty and with spider webs, they walk pass by them, Kabal being curious tried opening them, but of course they were locked, he then moved on with the others, they walked down the halls until they found a classroom, all of the seats still there, the board covered in a lot of smoke along with the teachers desk, the room looked very dirty, so much even they wouldn't dare sit down.
"Kabal?" asked Kano.
"*Sigh* alright, just wait a second" said Kabal and in an instant the entire dust of the room was moved to the back, Kabal didn't have the tools to take it out so at least in there it wouldn't annoy them.
They all then took their respective seats and then...
"Alright mates, it's time we start the real buzzo" said Kano with a smile on his face.
"Wait, are we seriously going to do this? " asked Kabal excited.
"Yeah mate, we're going for the classic…." he said finding a marker and writing something on the board.
"Cage Fights!" he said turning to the others with a side to side smile, letting them see 'cage fights' written on the board.
Kabal got a bit excited at that, this was his way of practicing new attacks and keeping himself busy while earning money.
Erron on the other hand wasn't as excited as Kabal, he saw it more as a way to show his abilities to potential clients, plus that way they could earn some extra money.
"So this is why you made me go back for that Ingenium guy? said Kabal.
"Yes mate, so today, Black ye are going to go and buy some of the things we need to set up, me and the others are going to go get the other things we need".
"Why am I not going with y'all?".
"Because Black, yer the only one here that doesn't have ANY specific physical traits, if ye take off yer mask, no one will know it's ye, so yer our only ghost".
The worst part about the hole thing is that's true what he said.
"*Sigh* alright… Make the grocery list" said Erron taking off some of his guns.
"Hey put this on" said Kabal giving Erron the box full of clothes.
"Where did you get these?"
"I was passing by a store with this on sale, so I decided to pick it up while coming here" he said while just shrugging, we all know what he did.
"Alright" said Erron taking the box.
"Well… here ye go" said Kano handing over a piece of paper with something written on it and a wallet.
"What exactly are guys gonna do?" he said opening the wallet, revealing the face of the guy who D'vorah ate and checking further it was fill with money.
"Get new employees, we can't run the place by ourselves".
"Where?".
"Where do ye think criminals go first after being arrested?".
"Heh" he said knowing where they were going.
He then exited the room and and after a few minutes later he comes in with jeans and a black t-shirt with a bald man saying 'ok' in a very simple anime style.
He put his clothes on the box and gives it to Kabal, he looks at Kano with suspicious eyes and then takes the clothes back from Kabal.
"Alright, now D'vorah will take care of our candidates, Noob, once we get our new employees ye will bring her here and force the candidates that have NO chance of escaping to clean most of this place up, ye got that?" said Kano in a very serious tone.
Noob only nodded.
"Alright, Erron, I'll be explaining what we'll do to get the new employees, if ye want to stick around ye can".
"Nah, I think I'll go get this off my back first, see you later" said Erron walking away leaving the room.
"Alright, now this is the plan…." said Kano with a smile.
IN THE WAREHOUSE: 12:10 PM
D'vorah
'Where am I?' was the thought in Tensei Lida's A.K.A. Ingenium head as he woke up, his head hurt a lot as he opened his eyes, he fully opened them to a room black as pitch, his senses kicked in and his body felt like it was being crushed by its own weight, he looked around the room, trying to get any clues of what the room looked like, he got nothing, there was only dust and a bit of trash, nothing more, he tried to move but his body felt restrained, he looked back only to see a swarm of bugs covering his body in some kind of mold, he tried again to move but it didn't work, again, that's when something could be heard from the darkness in the room, like a cockroach moving while you're looking for it, the sound was getting closer but now it sounded like bones cracking along with its muscles, then the figure showed itself, it form was that of a woman, her skin yellow and its texture that of the exterior of a bug, he couldn't see her face due to a half weird hood, the only thing he saw instead was a faint yellow reflection coming off of her eyes, she moved her head side to side weirdly and then moved her face close to his, showing only half of her face, her yellow skin did carry to her face but her lips were black, she then smiled widely when they made eye contact.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"This one finds that question useless" she said, her voice sounding crackle and weird, she walked back and sat in the darkness.
"Hmmm… let me go, it's only a matter of time before the other heroes arrive and take you down, make it easier on yourself" he said angrily.
"Heroes? do you not remember?" she said biting down on something.
"What?".
"Your fight with Kabal".
That's when he remembered, his world spinning at speeds unknown to him, he turns back to her, confidence in his eyes.
"Doesn't matter, other heroes will come, they always do, I'm sure".
"This one finds that hard to believe, those other heroes didn't hurt Kabal nor Noob, it seems that they were truly worthless"
"Are they alright?" he said with fear on his voice.
"Yes" she said while giving something to some bugs to eat.
A small smile formed in his face, filled with hope.
"Only the two that managed to hold on to life, that is" she said with a hint of a smile, the yellow reflections seemed to turn in a curved form, showing how amused she was at him, this happened as his smile turned into a frown.
"You should be thankful, you were chosen~" she said ripping something from and object, and getting near him.
"If he didn't have a plan for you, you would be dead meat by now"
"Eat" she said dropping a piece a of meat, uncooked.
"W-what is it?".
His question was answered as something showed itself, the half of a dog appeared and opened in a explosion of blood as a giant spider came out of it.
Horror was in Lida's face as the insect crawled near the woman and she looked back at him.
"Your dinner is ready" she said while petting the new born insect.
He looked down at the piece of meat, blood still dripping of it, he looks up to the girl, disgusted and angry.
"Eat" she said in a more aggressive tone, grabbing the piece of meat and moving it to his mouth.
"Eat….." she whispered, showing her face, her eyes as black as pitch with a yellow tint on it, her smile as wide as it could be, and that smile, was the smile….. of a predator.
THE STREETS OF MUSTAFO: 12:30 PM
Erron Black(Lots of flashbacks)
Horns, multiple eyes, rainbow hair, pretty much anything you can imagine he saw walking down the street, he felt uncomfortable really, just like back when he first arrived in Outworld, he didn't know what to do, and that was one thing he hated the most, but now, it wasn't about being tough, it was just about being another guy, which he didn't know how to do, but he'll try.
He walked down the street until he found a music store, he looked inside, it was filled with teens, they all looked like people that were fans of music, he went into his pocket and pulled out the list, it was full of music equipment, nothing suspicious on the list to his surprise, cables and tools written on it, he looked back up and entered the store.
It smelled nice as he went inside, he looked to the right and started to look around the store looking for the electronics, he walked down the halls of the store until he found the stereos, he continued walking down the hall until he passed by a wood guitar, it looked like any classic wood guitar you can imagine, as he looked at it a kid came up and grabbed it, he turned back only to not see the store wall anymore but a wood house in the middle of a dessert, the kid running into the porch of the house sitting on a bench, the guitar now turned into a old guitar, different from today's guitars, something people back in the day would use, the kid sits down and tries to use the guitar, Erron then looks back and sees a man he knew too well.
"What ya doing Erron?" asked the man, he wore brown pants and boots, his white button shirt dirty from work and sweat falling from his face, his hair was long and a dark brown.
"Nothing sir" said the kid, he wore blue pants, his boots dirty as well as his red shirt, his hair was short and brown.
The man then passes by Erron (adult), and sits beside the Kid.
"Where ya get that guitar son?".
"I found it in the road sir".
"Is that so" he said looking around.
"Can you play me a tune?" he said turning back to the kid.
"Yes sir" said the kid starting to try and use the guitar, the tune played wasn't bad, but impressive for the kids age.
"That's not half bad Erron, tell ya something, if ya keep practicing I'll buy you a better guitar" he said looking at the kid with a warm smile, happiness ruling in his eyes.
"You promise?".
"I do".
"Umm… sir?".
Erron was snapped back to reality and turns to the source of the voice, a girl with short dark purple hair and two cables falling from the bottom of her ears.
"Are going to use that?" she said pointing at the guitar.
"No, sorry" he said in Japanese with a very noticeable texan accent, walking back letting her use the guitar.
The girl grabbed the guitar, sitting in a chair nearby and placing it over her legs, she then started to play the guitar with her nails, Erron heard the tune she played, it was a nice tune, he turns to her impressed as she played the tune, he smiled slowly, not in a evil way but a warm happy one, he turned back to see the stand of the guitar, he continued hearing the her play.
He looked to the side again instead this time it was a bar, the same kid playing the same guitar as before, his dad sitting right beside him, a can between their feet, a few coins in it.
"Sir? it broke" said the kid looking up to his father.
"You sure?" said the dad seeing a group of shadowy people staring at them.
"Yes sir" said the kid showing him the guitar, one of its strings broken.
"Erron, go home, fix it, I'll get there before supper".
"Alright sir" said the kid walking away.
The music stopped forcing Erron to go back to reality, he look to the girl to find her inspected the guitar thoroughly.
"Is something wrong?" asked Erron.
"Uhh… no, I was just looking over it" she said.
"Can I try?".
"Sure" she said passing over the guitar.
Erron grabbed the guitar, feeling the wood as he placed his hands in the right position, once he placed it he over the strings carefully, feeling the material pass his fingers, he makes a small movement playing a calm tune, the girl seemed to like it, he looked back at her with a smile and looked back at the guitar and then started to play, for real, he started to play a tune that was warm and firm, he played it slowly making certain parts last longer, showing some emotion while doing it.
Then in front of him a man that towered over him appeared, the ceiling now a wood roof with stars over them, the man had a white hat and a gray mustache, his clothes were black and a touch of white as decorations with a badge on his jacket, shadows covering most of his face, making it impossible to see his full face, looking down at him.
"Hey there Erron" said the man.
"Good night Mr. Burlington" said the kid without stopping to play the guitar.
"It's a good night ain't it?" he said looking behind him, contemplating the desert before him.
"Is something wrong?"
"No, no… I was just looking around, most fellas don't come around here, never knew why" he said turning back to the kid.
"That ain't half bad" said the man looking at the guitar the kid had as he played it.
"Really?" said the kid looking up.
"Most kids never touch a guitar in their lives, and even those that do drop it as fast as they used it, it's a good thing that you learn to play it, something good to pass time with" he said sitting down beside the kid, his face now illuminated by the moonlight revealing the face of a old man, blue eyes and a white beard with the mustache decorating his face along with wrinkles.
"What happened?" he asked, noticing the fixedstring.
"It broke earlier Sir" said the kid allowing him to see it.
"You should take it to someone else to fix it, won't last very long after that" he said Looking at the desert before him.
"How's Ma?" said the kid looking at Burlington in the eyes.
"She's fine…" he said now looking at the roof.
"You should go see her, she misses you" he said looking back at the kid.
"Yeah, but Mr. Black doesn't want me to, he says it's a waste of time".
"By the way, where is your father?" he said looking around before looking at him again.
"I don't know sir, he said he would be back before supper"
"Is that so?" he looked around, side to side, "May I come in?" said the man "I need a drink".
"Yes sir" said the kid while still playing the guitar.
The man standed up and walked into the house, he could hear him open a cabinet and serve himself something, a few minutes pass and his dad gets in front of the home, this time though with a pistol in hand and a bandana covering half of his face and a large coat.
"Erron" he whispered waving his hand in motion for the kid to come.
"Is someone home?" asked his father removing his bandana showing a worried face when he got there.
"Mr. Burlington is home, he said he was looking for you".
His face changed into that of regret, looking at the house with his eyes, seeing him through the windows of the house, he looks back at Erron.
"Erron, I want you to play your guitar as loud and as good as you can" he looked back up.
"You got me? and don't come close home, I need to have a talk with him and I don't want that to interrupt you from getting better at playing".
Erron nodded to his father and started to play louder with a happier tone, his father looked at him his smile being the warmest he had ever seen but his eyes were instead full of regret, he padded him in the shoulder and walked forward, each step being heard over his tune but fading as he got close to the house, he went up the small steps of the stairs, the wood making noises as he took each step forward, he got to the door knob, he looked back at Erron, and looked back to the door and opened it and walked in, letting the door close by itself.
Erron played his guitar with all his heart, each string moving to make its tune, making a good song, something that should be heard, but was never heard, as he played it he felt one of the strings felt weird.
A sound roared through the night as the string broke again, making the tune stop.
A clap woke him to reality and looked to the girl, she was clapping with a smile on her face.
"Now that was nice" she said while clapping.
"Thank you" said Erron with a warm smile.
"You gonna buy it?" she asked looking at him curiously.
"Haven't thought about it".
"Really? you should buy it, I mean, you're pretty good at it".
"Thanks, oh, sorry, I forgot, first gotta buy some other stuff" he said placing the guitar back in its place and taking out the note Kano gave him out.
"Do you need any help?".
He looked at the list, there wasn't anything suspicious on it, so he could get some help with some of this stuff.
"Yeah I could use some help".
"Ok, what do you need?"
He gave her the note,
"Wow this is some heavy stuff, what are you planning to do?" she said reading the list.
"A party".
"You're gonna play there?"
"Probably"
"Oh, by the way, what's your name?".
He hesitated for a second and finally answered.
"Tom Anderson" he said giving out a hand.
"Kyoka Jiro" she said shaking the hand.
"Pleasure to meet you".
NEAR A POLICE STATION: 12:30 PM
"Oh my god! you caught him!?" said a cop looking at the scene before him.
A fellow cop had just caught the biggest villain in the city, Kabal, he was cuffed and it seemed he was drugged or had a concussion, his jacket covered the entirety of his upper body.
"God!" he said now that he saw his fellow cop in the face.
His cop suit was dirty and a bit bloodied, his right eye was covered by a bloody bandage.
"What happened?".
"Found him and Wraith in a patrol, bastards took down my partner, broke our radios, had to use my quirk on him before he murdered my partner, managed to run over here dragging him here".
"*sigh* good you're ok, at least you got one of them" he said relieved.
"No, we don't have time to waste, last I saw him was at this direction!" he said desperately writing a direction of a note.
"Go it" said the cop pressing a button on a desk, and a few minutes later a bunch of cops walked out the halls, some armored and other wore light protection.
"Alright, Wraith is at this direction, GO!" said the cop and everyone else rushed out immediately, the injured cop stood there waiting for everyone to leave.
"Hey, could you please call to this number, it's my phone, I think I dropped it" said the cop putting a phone number in another note.
"Ok, by the way, are you new here? I haven't seen you before" he said making the phone call.
His answer was a head shot by a laser beam coming off the cop's covered eye, his head exploding leaving the wall behind him painted in blood.
"Yes I am" said Kano taking off the cop hat and his bandage, going back to his australian accent as his robotic eye revealed itself.
Noob teleports into the room, looks around the place and then looks back at Kano and hands him back the phone.
"Where's everyone?" he said.
"Most left, some may come here to check…"
He looked into the halls of the department, he smiled and turned to Noob.
"How about ye two go have some fun?"
Kabal immediately got up and breaks the cuffs using his speed to do so.
"If you guys excuse me, I've to go talk with some friends" said Kabal walking down the right hall, while Noob walked down the left hall.
Kano looked around the place and walked into the reception desk where the cop died, he boops the corpse out of the chair and then sits down in the chair, he feels something hot on his back, he turns to his back.
'Shit'.
'Damn it' he thought to himself as he realized his back was now full of blood.
'Fuck'
He then noticed a box of "Missing" objects, he took it out and looked inside of it and found a headset, it was black with purple and it had cat ears, he hated the cat ears part, but right now he didn't have the time for royalties, he took out the phone he fixed, plug the headset and looked up a song.
"Yes!" muttered Kano to himself.
'They have it' he thought as he clicked the play button and the music started to play, he moved his head at rhythm of the song.
(The song Kano is listening to: "Mr. Blue Sky").
Kabal walked down the right hall until he went into a room and saw a couple of cops looking around curious, he looked the room, they took one look at Kabal and pulled out their guns, Kabal wouldn't have any of it, he went for a dash and disarmed (literally) all the cops in the room, they dropped to the ground in pain, one of them tried to use his quirk and fire came out of his eyes, not a lot to be lethal but enough to hurt someone, Kabal dodged it and looked back at him, he walked towards him, ignoring everyone else in the room and grabbed him by the throat.
"TRY IT AGAIN, I DARE YOU!" he said pressing down his throat, suffocating him.
"COME ON! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!?" screamed Kabal in rage, the man slowly losing consciousness looked at Kabal, he didn't need to see Kabal eyes or face to know the reason he got angry, his burned neck was enough.
The man dropped as the other cops went up to their radios to call for help, Kabal dashed and cut the radios to pieces, they all look at him with horror on their faces.
"P-please, I have a family" whispered a cop, air escaping from her lungs.
He didn't even look at them, he just walked away.
"You're not going to finish us?" asked another cop, he was holding on to the stump that now was his arm.
Kabal turned back at the group, a bit of blood still tripping from his hook swords.
"Your little friend over there ruined my day, plus, killing you would just bite me in the ass later" he said in a annoyed tone.
He then walked off that room with his hands in his pockets and continued walking through the building.
He knocked and then opened a door and looked it, it was a resting room, it had a coffee maker and a hand wash, a person in a weird dominatrix suit was sitting down, her hair almost completely dark but more purple, she had a whip to her waist, the other seemed to be another cop, at least a detective with what he was wearing, he looked serious about whatever he was talking about.
Kabal was very pissed of right now, so, he decided to calm down using these two and a cup of coffee.
(Midnight POV) 2 minutes ago...
"So he was just caught? I'm surprised such an undisciplined man would fall so easily" said Midnight sitting down.
"Yeah he was, but, unfortunately the cop didn't go unharmed".
"What happened?".
"I didn't see it, but according to what the others said he had a bandage over his right eye, it looked really bad, guy had to use his quirk to take him down, it took one hit".
"Wow, I didn't think he would be caught so... easily" she said looking to her left side, confused.
"Me neither, after seeing his mass-….*cough*, encounter with the heroes and the results of said encounter".
She remember when she saw the news last night, it was a bad day for heroes, Wraith's fights had all of the pictures, most were taken from a distance due to Yu's quirk, the pictures of Wraith and his clones beating Kamui to a pulp while other clones were also attacking Yu, then the next ones were of him standing over both heroes, he wasn't going to kill them, his posture said enough, but when it came to Kabal's pictures, that was a different story, villains hadn't killed that many heroes in a while, specially one by themselves, the media should've been crazy over this, all of the channels said many things that would paint him as an actual animal or monster, describing the scenes or stuff like that, but there were no photos of a fight, so most of the rumors and comments around the lack of photos were 'The cops are keeping the photos from showing themselves' or 'No one took a photo', her gut was telling her it may have been the latter, still how was that even possible?
She heard a slight yell, she managed to make out some of the words and it wasn't something bad, so she decided to ignore it.
The door to the room had a knock from the other side and the door opened.
She turned to the door as well as Naomasa, expecting a cop to be there but they instead saw Kabal in the door looking at them, the awkwardness could be felt from a mile away.
Midnight got up and prepared her whip while Naomasa pulled out his gun.
Kabal stood there and disappeared in the blink of an eye, it was a second on Midnights eye, she couldn't see clearly, it was like reality was being torn for a few milliseconds and when her vision returned she could see the room again but it had changed, Naomasa was now cuffed to the desk and she was tied with her own whip and Kabal was now sitting down on Midnights chair.
"Ok, you two need to calm down…" he said bumping on her back with his leg.
Midnight was a bit aroused at that moment, it had been a while since she was in this kind of position.
"First, I have several questions…. Like... Why is a Japanese Bootleg Sherlock Holmes and a dominatrix doing in this room, *cough*, *cough*... Alone ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)?" he said while standing up and looking for something in the room.
"What are you going to do?" asked Naomasa looking nervous, he glanced at Midnight and she started to try and rip her clothes off to use her quirk.
"Make some coffee" he said calmly still looking around the small room.
Midnight finally managed to rip a bit of costume off, but Kabal noticed and walked to her direction and kneeled in front of her.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you, I'm not a fan of threesomes" he said tightening the whip and walking back to looking for something to make coffee.
Midnight was now more aroused,( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°),( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°),( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°),( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), but she had to take him down, or at the very least limit his vision with her mist due to the mask.
"DAMN IT! there is no coffee!" he said hitting the desk in the room.
"Do you guys really don't have anymore?" he asked turning to Naomasa.
"No, we send some guys earlier but they haven't come back" said Naomasa awkwardly.
"Ohh…".
(Flashy Flash Flashback)
Kabal, Noob and Kano were on top of a few cops, beating them to near death and unconsciousness inside of an alley.
(Back to reality)
"*Sigh* oh well… guess I'll just keep going" he said with a nervous smile under his mask while heading to the door.
"Why do you want coffee?" asked Midnight.
Kabal turned to them and sighed before he started explaining.
"Some guy in the other room took me through PTSD Land for free and I didn't like it, kinda ruined my mood, so I needed something to cheer me up" he said almost face palming, accidentally revealing his burned skin .
"My god… what happened to your skin?" she asked.
"A cat did it" said Kabal shrugging while recovering his skin.
"H-how?" asked Naomasa confused as he imagined a small normal cat burning a man as fast as him.
"Well you take a Dragon, you mix it with a Cat, Arnold levels of muscles and an extra pair of arms, that's how you can get PTSD" he said with a bitter but joking tone.
"But… How did…".
"Look, you two live in a world where people can fly and do all kinds of crazy shit, so WHY is that surprising at all?" he said leaning over almost yelling.
"Forget it... I'm going for a walk" he said walking out of the office.
Both of them stared at the door, confusion being smelled in the air as they turned to each other.
'What just happened?' was the only thing in her mind, according to the news he was a savage killer, but he acted so jokingly and not serious, even weirder is the burns in his body, most people would die if not for a healing quirk, she needed to go and investigate this.
(Back to Kabal)
'Today just isn't my day is it?' he thought to himself as he walked down the hall, tired, as he looked in each room.
"I already told you to stop doing that you idiot!" screamed a woman at the end of the hallway, he walked down the hall, slowly, making sure he didn't make noise and started to draw out his hook swords.
"Ssshhhh…. I think someone is coming" whispered the voice again.
Kabal drew out his swords and walked out of the corner to see cells for the detained, there he saw a giant red guy with pitch black eyes grabbing and eating the cell bars, another guy with red hair and blue eyes came behind him, trying to stop him, in the other cell was a girl, she had silky black hair and a red eye with an eye patch on her left eye looking angrily at the big red man.
They all stared at each other for a good 5 seconds before one of them spoke.
"KABAL!?" screamed the big red guy.
"No, I'm Deadpool" he said.
He walked up to the front of the cells and walked slowly from one side to another.
"And who are you guys?" he said leaning over to the cell wall.
"First get us out of here, and we'll tell you" said the red guy somehow making himself bigger.
"Ok then, I'll better get going" said Kabal walking out of the hall.
"Wait!" said the girl.
"We'll tell you our names, we don't have anything else to do" said the girl.
Kabal stopped turned around and got ready to listen putting his hook swords on his back.
"Okay, shoot" he said crossing his arms.
"Fumiko" she said having a curious face.
"You" he said pointing at the red guy.
"Sora" he said smiling widely.
"And you?" he said turning his head to the guy behind Sora.
"Asahi" he said without moving.
"Wait wasn't your name Toya?" said the girl turning her head in annoyance and surprise.
"Would you give your real name to some guys in prison who you don't even know?" he said turning his head in annoyance, he then got up, his hair color didn't change but his eyes did, from a blue to a reddish black, and his Cleras changed from white to black, and a few black whips came off his arm.
"Soooo…. why do you tell him your true name?" she asked.
"Are you sure it's my true name?" he asked, a small smile being formed in his face.
"Now's my turn to ask, what ya want with us?" asked Asahi using the whips to make his arm bigger.
"Not much" he said before disappearing from their view faster than they could see.
'Son of a bitch' thought Fumiko to herself, frowning while doing so.
He then appeared in front of them, now however, he had a notebook at which he was staring at and a pen, he probably got it from one of the rooms.
"Okay… quirks?" he asked looking back at them.
"Adaptation, it allows me to change my body when the situation requires it, but only for a certain thing, while any previous adaptation is dropped to make the new one, it can be anything" Sora said as his mouth opened more showing rows of teeth.
"I'm pretty much a lizard, crawl walls, long shooting tongue, swallow people up, you name it I have it" she said while looking borely at her hands.
"And you?"
"Change body into whatever I need, turn into someone else, grow another head, pretty much anything, but I can only do it in the dark" he said as his body changed quickly as he was in the dark part of the room, now he looked like All Might, he posed and did his shtick before changing back to his previous form.
"Okay, now if you excuse-" Kabal was cut by Noob who put a hand on his shoulder, Kabal almost jumped but stopped midway and turned to Noob.
"Seriously, stop creeping in on people" said Kabal annoyed.
"Why?" he said tilting his head to the right.
"Forget it, what were you doing anyways?".
(Flashback to Noob….)
Noob was walking down the hall, looking to each side as he was looking for prey, the negativity, the hate, the fear, he could SMELL it, FEEL it, he was a Wraith after all, a being from the darkest pits of the Netherrealm, negative human emotions were something he could feed off from, even if he didn't need to, it was something to enjoy, the despair of going to jail, the fear of someone escaping, he couldn't imagine how great it would feel like to be in a prison, but right now, he had something else to do, he looked around looking for ANYONE so he can have an actual fight, he kept walking until he found a room with a half opened door, movement could be heard in the inside, he walked near it and peaked inside, there he found a cop filling a water cup, he was the most normal looking cop one could imagine, on the other side there was table and two cops sitting there, behind them were several lockers, both cops didn't have their uniforms, they were in normal civilian clothes, looks like they were about to leave, too bad….
He opened the door with a kick, the door opened with a huge slam, everyone in the room turned to the door, the shock was building up so slowly in Noob's view, the joy he was feeling, everything building up to their final reaction, they all jumped back, the one with the water cup dropped it and his hand moved to his side arm, they were too slow for Noob, The Special Forces Rookies would be more of a challenge than these three, he moved faster than they could ever react to, he used his hook and placed it through the armed cop's head, the death was instant, but that wasn't enough, not enough for him, he needed more, more suffering, more pain, more FEAR, TERROR, he turned back to the last two who tried to scream, their mouths being covered by his shadows that were formed instantly behind them, they tried to scream once more but their mouths covered by the shadows couldn't get enough sound to come out, noob got close to them, his mask making his white eyes shine brighter than they should have ever been, but it was good he wore one, because what was under it, wasn't something they would like to see…
They didn't die…
Unfortunately….
(Back to the present)
"I was busy with some acquaintances" said Noob, his eyes showing no emotion from them.
"Okay…. go get Kano, we got some good hounds here" he said giving Noob the notes.
Noob teleported out of there, Kabal just waited there, arms crossed, he stared at the group of newbies, waiting for Kano to get his ass here.
"Soooo… how did you two met?" asked Fumiko.
"Me and him, we go a long way, maybe what 20 years now I would say…"
"Wow, how old are you?".
"Older than I should" he said scratching the back of his head.
"Anywho, how did two started to work together?".
"We didn't, then we did, for more than half of those twenty years we did, gotta say I didn't imagine myself working with at the time" he said nostalgically.
"Well, what do we have here?" said Kano walking into the room, the headset was now around the back of his neck, the cable going down the left side of it into one of his pockets, he was still in cop clothes.
"So these are the fellas?" he said rubbing his chin looking at the notes.
"Looks like ye need some help, how about ye guys come with me? got some buzzo for ya" he said smiling.
"Well, it's not like we have an actual choice" said Fumiko.
"What you two think?" she said turning to the others.
"Yeah, we don't have one, yeah I'll go, what about you?" said Asahi, his body now back to it's 'normal' form.
"I'll go, I want to see where this goes" said Sora, smiling even wider.
"Alright mates, we gotta move before they come back, Noob?" he said and Nobb immediately formed a portal and he then walked through it, Kabal then unlocked the cells, motioned to the portal, they all then followed and entered it.
2 DAYS LATER:
Lida's eyes opened, he now was somewhere different than before, he looked around the room, he couldn't see anything, he only heard lots of breathing, then a light shone above him, he looked up, he then looked around noticing where he was, a cage, a fighting cage, people were grabbing the chicken wire walls, then a music played.
(PLAY 'TECHNO SYNDROME-MORTAL KOMBAT')
"Ladies and gentlemen! today we have the great hero Ingenium in our lovely arena!" said a man from a high stage.
"Who wants to meet their hero?" he said and lots of hands holding money rose up, he then looked and pointed at the one with the highest amount.
"We have a winner, go in my man" he said as the person walking to the door and gave the money to the cowboy to its side, he then entered and stood ready to fight.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the fight is about to begin, who is gonna win?, who's gonna lose?, will the hero defeat and show mercy to his enemy or will he finish him? place your beats and see…." he moved his arms around like a showman.
"After all, that's why we call it…" he said and rose his hand as the music got to the same point as he did, everyone else rose their hands and screamed along with him.
"MORTAL KOMBAT!" everyone screamed.
