After Helping Mumen rider do basic good deeds and other things that were usually done by C class heroes King and Tatsumaki found out about a particularly dangerous source of creatures according to rumors. As S class heros investigation of said spot would be necessary. However when they arrived.
Tatsumaki's pov
Theres nothing here Dummy what now.[ She gave a told you so look to King] This is why trusting random rumors is pointless.
" Well we should at least search the area getting rid of a threat that could appear in the future that seems to weak to bother with now is important. It can also help through just getting rid of the extras."
[ Although infuriated she knew he was right and they went into the area] Sigh whatever if it prevents trouble in the future for others who can't handle something easy. The trick being we have to find the monsters first. [ She flew upwards separating the two] They might attack if they see one person alone I'll see if I can find anything from up here!

Great so I'm the bait as usual. Although one time it ended up being a flying monster. But I doubt that will be the case this time. [ He walked down the abandoned street quickly glancing down alleys and into stores] I wonder if anything will pop up today. Mostly I came here because I heard the person that inspired me to become stronger usually frequents the area. At least it sounds that way. The training I did to achieve this strength. Is more confusing than anything else. For when I saw that person rescue me even though he was no hero it sparked a fire in my soul. Now what is called the "King Engine" instead of just my heart pounding from the stress,fear or other complications it serves as something indeed to be feared by my foes. I have relentlessly pounded away at my fears through immense amounts of training. Three years from that day here I stand fighting for what's right and in my case sometimes for fun. But the full story isn't important. The important part is no regular person could do what I did and expect the same result. I trained based on all of my weaknesses not just one. So every person has a different path to find there true strength is what I'm trying to say. Looks like nothing's here for now [ As he walked further into the abandoned residential area a slight rumbling noise caught his attention] Oh looks like we caught a big one [ The thing in question was a 20 feet tall mech with visible gears protruding from its body four red eyes glowed as they focused on him] This might get interesting.
" Emergency protocol activated. Destroying enemy. Power output changed to 50%. [ suddenly all of the gears weather visible or not started turning a metallic grinding noise could be heard as each gear went into motion, the gears attached to its arms and hands spun more rapidly as razor sharp blades started protruding from them] Starting anti biological life form procedures. Meat shredder mode active proceeding to eliminate target. [ The mech started moving towards him as it swung both arms in from the left and right aiming to kill him instantly]."
Your going to have to move much faster than that! [ He quickly jumped and landed on top of the mechs head] Also I'm not the only one here fighting you [ he jumped on top of a nearby building as multiple street lamps hit it with tremendous force pushing it back]. Looks like they didn't impale it. I might actually have to do something this time. [ The robot just stood there for a few seconds blocking incoming objects as they approached].
" Second Enemy determined. Multiple problems with current fighting mode. Current possibility of victory 1% switching to optimum mode recommended. Power output increased to 100% activating all weapons and defensive systems. Beginning Obliteration mode. [ Suddenly all the gears started turning rapidly the blades retracted as the gears on its arms retracted leaving no gears outside of its body, Electricity could be seen coursing on its metal frame and steam exited the vents on its back at a fast pace, it's right hand transformed into a large sledgehammer with multiple spikes protruding each side its entire left arm reformed into a cannon]. Current chance in victory has reached 99% based on previous data. Proceeding to eliminate long range threat."

[ She effortlessly dodged a incoming beam] This is way to easy. We should just scrap it now instead of toying around. I'm done holding back King don't blame me if your caught in the middle of this. [ She extended her hand and a greenish hue enveloped the entire robots body] Vanish from my sight or be crunched till your a marble you piece of trash. [ As If ignoring her the robot resisted the invisible force trying to push it back] Hoooooo cocky aren't we. It seems your not just trash after all your at least a flea if your struggling now. [ She began a crushing motion with her outstretched hand instantly a large crater could be seen as if the robot was being pushed down by an extreme gravitational force yet it still somehow resisted and one step at a time slowly got closer to her]. Ehhh this is a first it's actually still going. Sigh whatever [ She put out her other hand hand and focused as the intensity of the green increased the amount of invisible force grew exponentially] Its still going jeez stubborn machine just give up already! [ Now visibly pissed off she channeled all of her strength into what she was doing slowly multiple dark green orbs formed around the robot forming layer by layer as they compressed and even the air and debris an a large area around it started getting sucked in, So many Sphereical layers of dark green had formed that you couldn't hear or see the robot anymore].
"K: Hey don't you think that's a little overboard even for this. Although you can go one step further with what your capable of right."
Shut up will you I'm trying to focus here. [ Suddenly as if something was pushing from the inside the dark green sphere moved a very small but still noticeable amount outward] Its still resisting what the heck is that nonsense. It should be scrap metal by now! Fine I'm Using everything I've got make sure your not caught by the sudden gravitational pull King because this is really pissing me off. [ Suddenly the sphere started turning a dark gray the surrounding area became darker and objects started freely flying towards the epicenter of the mass of gravity] IT'S OVER YOU PIECE OF CRAP! [ The Dark gray orb which definitely looked like a hole in space started rapidly getting smaller and smaller until it reached a certain point which the orb reversed again looking like it was being forced outwards] What This shouldn't be possible I'm way stronger than you. Just die already! [ For a few minutes straight it went back and forth between getting smaller and larger each side resisting the other refusing to back down, until finally the robot won out due to Tatsumaki running out of energy as she collapsed and feinted from disbelief and exhaustion, the dark gray orb effectively popping when that happened] I...mpo...ssi...ble.

Out cold huh. Well looks like it's not in the best shape after that. So I guess I'll take over from here [ the robots armor was falling off in places large cracks were everywhere in the frame and most of the gears that kept it ticking were visible many of which also were cracked or broken in places]. Only about 13% I guess maybe even less [ He rotated his left arm a few times]. Well funs over.
" Current. Hull. Remaining. 40%. Chance of victory. 20%. Proceed to. Last Resort. Take out. Enemy. At All. Costs [ A bright red and orange light could be seen emanating from its core but King was already in front of it as he simply punched it's leg lightly the entire robot shattered the parts all flying from a tremendous amount of force, it's head fell straight to the ground and shattered leaving 4 dull dead mechanical eyes spinning like tops, the core of the robot had been obliterated due to the immense force and multiple minuscule cracks in the metal which had torn it apart in the reaction to extreme force]."
If I had fought it alone it might have been fun for a little to see what it was capable of taking. [ He picked up the unconscious Tatsumaki and started heading back but realized problems would occur if he nonchalantly walked into the hero headquarters carrying the number 2 in his arms so he decided to go back to his apartment by a few secret routes in the city and walking up the stairs of the building to get to his apartment].
