One Punch Man: Polar Opposites
Chapter Two: Called In
The next day, Tatsumaki, otherwise known by her hero name the Tornado of Terror, sat at home, watching TV while eating a bowl of cereal, although she was just flipping channels, not watching anything in particular, but was simply looking for something of that she could find interest in, but found nothing that could interest her.
Yawning, she picked up her cellphone and dialed a number, and after several rings she got a response.
"Hello?" A female voice was heard on the other end.
"Hey, Fubuki?" Tatsumaki said. "It's me."
"Tatsu?" Fubuki responded. "What do you want?"
"What're you up to?" Tatsumaki said bluntly. "I was thinking of heading out for the day."
"Actually, I'm kinda busy." Fubuki said in an unsure tone.
"Still trying to seduce the baldy?" Tatsumaki guessed.
"It's not like that!" Fubuki freaked out. "Besides, I've made plenty of progress in being his friend!"
"How much?" Tatsumaki asked with a teasing grin.
For a while, Fubuki has been trying to get Saitama to acknowledge her as a friend, or maybe more than that, in order to get him to join her group. But ever since she started, all her attempts seem to result in the caped baldy to nonchalantly reject her or ignore her advances. Although she did manage to get him to at least somewhat consider her as a friend, but it took a painfully long while.
After a moment of silence, Fubuki answered, "I'm hanging up."
After the call ended, Tatsumaki couldn't help but giggle at her sister's expense. She always found it funny to tease her sister for her attempts to get Saitama to notice her, like a tsundere trying to gain the attention of their senpai.
As she proceeded to eat her cereal, her cellphone rang, seeing that it was someone from the Hero Association, she answered.
"Yes, what is it?" She said, before frowning at the operator's sporadic tone. "Hey, calm down! What's your problem?" Suddenly, she jumped from her couch, accidentally spilling her cereal. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE WAS A PRISON BREAK?!"
Fubuki sigh as she sat at her usual table outside a café, sipping her tea. She just arrived after a failed attempt to persuade Saitama into joining her group, the caped baldy seeming more focused on groceries or trying to beat King at a video game rather than listening to what she had to say.
Letting out a soft sigh after taking a sip of her tea, she pondered what she should do next, before seeing her three henchmen form a wall in before her.
"Hey, move along!" Lily yelled. "Miss Blizzard doesn't wish to be disturbed!"
Scoffing, Fubuki figured it was one of her obsessed fans trying to approach her, before proceeding to sip her tea.
"I only wish to speak with Miss Blizzard." A calm yet stern voice replied, which Fubuki seemed to almost recognize.
"Hey, you're told to move along!" Mountain Ape yelled. "If you don't, then-"
Before he could finish, however, Fubuki was shocked to see her henchmen flung to the side by an unknown force; Eyelashes and Lily were sent through the café window, while Mountain Ape was sent crashing into a car.
"I see you're still playing 'boss and henchmen' with such weaklings, I see."
Fubuki froze at the tone of the voice, her hands shaking, as she slowly looked up to see the familiar face standing before her; the man wearing the same outfit, but his face was clean-shaven this time, and his hair was cut shorter, reaching his shoulders.
"Hello… little sister."
Fubuki only sat there in pure shock and surprise, as the man looked down at her with those dark green eyes and a cold expression.
"B-Big brother…" Fubuki stuttered, utterly shocked. "K-Kaze…"
On the island, several heroes were present, helping the workers with cleaning up the mess and rebuilding the complex, as Tatsumaki arrived with great speed, landing perfectly on the ground, her eyes wide at the destruction before her.
"Ah, Miss Tornado!" One of the workers nearly gasped as he approached. "Thank goodness you have arrived!"
Tatsumaki, however, was in no mood for pleasantries, as she faced the worker with a deathly glare.
"Metal Knight had better have a DAMNED good explanation for how so many criminals escaped!" She seethed. "This was supposed to be the most secure and inescapable prison on the planet!"
"And for the most part, Black Tooth Prison has lived up to that, ma'am!" The worker stepped back in fear. "But something happened and now here we are!"
"Where is Metal Knight?!" Tatsumaki demanded. "I need to know what happened!"
"He's down in the lower levels!" The worker pointed to the main building.
Without hesitation, or waiting for the worker to continue, Tatsumaki stormed into the building and flying down the elevator shaft, heading straight for the bottom-most level where the S-Class criminals were held, speeding past cell after cell until she reached the cell she was looking for; Cell 666, and seeing Metal Knight's hulking robot standing in front of what remains of the cell door.
"Ah, I was expecting you to arrive." Metal Knight declared. "Much sooner than I expected, as usual."
"Where is he?!" Tatsumaki demanded. "Where is Kazenikura?!"
"Long gone, I'm afraid." Metal Knight sighed. "He was no doubt the one who started the riot and used the chaos to escape."
"How?!" Tatsumaki demanded with wide eyes. "Even with his power, he shouldn't have been able to escape!"
"We found his power-disabling collar." The robot said, holding up the dark collar. "Upon closer inspection, the inside seemed to have been fried, rendered useless."
"And he was able to rejuvenate without a problem?!" Tatsumaki was livid. "What the hell were the guards doing?!"
"The security droids only made sure that the prisoners were in their cell." Metal Knight explained. "He was no doubt able to hide his energy readings to trick the droids."
Tatsumaki's emotion went from anger to fear. In her mind, Kazenikura was once one of the strongest heroes in the Association, second only to Blast. Given his intentions and his mindset, she feared that he would pick up where he left off; intending to tear the world to pieces.
Without a second thought, she immediately flew back up to the surface and away from the island, hoping that she may be able to stop her mad brother.
And there's the next chapter! Kaze is on the loose and Tatsumaki knows that it's bad news! And in the next chapter, we'll see the reunion between Fubuki and her eldest sibling! I really hope I got the personalities of the characters right to some extent!
To be honest, I'm kinda worried about the big meet between Kaze and Saitama. I'm worried I might mess it up. Still, I'm gonna do my best and hope I can give you one hell of a fight between an unstoppable force and an immovable object.
Also, I apologize for the chapter title, I couldn't think up a better one lol.
Anyways, hope you enjoyed and stay tuned for more chapters! And be sure to review!
