Sleep to most is a blissful escape from our reality, it is a way for which we can wash away all of the stress of the day as well as any troubles that might be on the horizon. But then there are those where even in this unconscious state they know nothing of tranquility or peace for the lives they live never know a break of madness. Such is the case for the world's strongest hero One Punch Man for as of this moment he slumbers in his apartment trying to put the past few days behind him but alas even in his own domicile he cannot escape the madness of his life.
"ONE PUNCH ONE PUNCH ONE ONE PUNCH ONE PUNCH ONE PUNCH!" The countless hordes of fans cheered from outside.
Now normally Saitama would be semi furious maybe even angered by his fans unrelenting praise and attention but as he laid there with his head resting on his pillow he simply stared at the wall not seeming to care in the slightest.
"It's happening again...normally I'd go out there, yell at them to stop cheering which would only cause them to cheer more, then I'd come back in and just do something to keep my mind off of it...but not this time..." He thought as he moved his gaze from his wall to the ceiling "My emotions...they're becoming more and more difficult to feel...it's almost like I'm becoming incapable of feeling them..." He continued as he closed his eyes "I never gave it any real thought...but maybe...in exchange for my strength...I lost something that's essential to being human?..." He wondered.
However before he could continue to think on this any further the sudden absence of his fans cheering caught his attention.
"Huh?" He sounded as he sat up in his bed "What happened? why'd they stop?" He asked himself as he proceeded to get to his feet.
After doing a bit of stretching as this had been the first time since yesterday he'd gotten out of his bed he made his way from his living room to the front door and opened it and what lay beyond it caused his eyes to widen in shock. Where the news crews and fans would normally be instead stood near ten foot tall creatures with brown colored skin and immensely strange heads. But this wasn't what shocked him what had him standing in his doorway paralyzed to the very core was the massive pool of blood that they stood in giving him a grim idea as to what had happened to everyone.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" He shouted as his paralysis was swiftly being replaced by unbridled rage.
Sadly, before he could do anything else the sound of his floor breaking apart caught his attention, and before he could react he was met with a massive fist which punched him and sent him flying out of his apartment. Flying with great speed through the air it was but only a few seconds before he made contact with the overhead highway which ran near his apartment building, being embedded into one of the pillars which held it up as he did. Groaning from the impact Saitama as he began to pull himself free of the pillar felt something warm on his head before something red came over his right eye revealing that it was blood.
HIS blood.
"How strange." A deep voice spoke in front of him "No surface dweller has survived our punches so far." It noted.
Looking up from himself Saitama saw a horde of the creatures beginning to surround him however the one directly in front of him seemed to have fresh blood on one of it's fists indicating it was the one that had hit him.
"Who the hell are you?" He asked as he finally freed his body from the pillar landing on his feet as he did.
"We are the true earthlings." The creature answered as he gestured to the others "But you surface dwellers refer to us as subterraneans." He added.
Now that he knew the nature of the creatures before him Saitama cast a quick look to the blood which flooded the street behind them before looking back to the one in front of him.
"Are you responsible for this?" He asked even though he knew well what the answer was.
"Yes." It answered "You see we are facing an overpopulation issue so we made the decision to come to the surface." He explained "However we then discovered you surface dwellers were facing a similar issue which was a problem." He continued "So it is because of this fact that we have decided to kill all of you and take the surface for ourselves, as of this moment seventy percent of the population has been killed, this is a battle for survival I hope you can understand that." He concluded.
Unable to keep himself from gritting his teeth Saitama as his rage only grew more and more felt his hands instinctively ball into fists.
"However this is something we have not seen." It admitted as it got closer "No surface dweller has survived a punch from us which is peculi-" It was saying until it was cut off by a blow to it's abdomen.
Caring not for anything else that it had to say Saitama before it had a chance to react threw forth an uppercut which after having connected caused the creature's body to explode outward sending it's blood and insides out through it's back. Watching in disbelief and horror as one of their own fell to the ground now nothing but a pair of legs and viscera the subterraneans had not even a second to react before more soon found themselves exploding in the very same fashion all at the hand of the surface dweller.
"YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THIS YOU BASTARDS!" He shouted as he continued to decimate them with no issue whatsoever.
Whether it was his declaration of battle or perhaps the shock wearing off those who had not yet died by his hand felt rage course through them which sent them running forward to attack their foe wanting nothing more than to see him die. Unfortunately even with their number AND size advantage one after the other they continued to die causing more to come from the ground below to join in.
"What is this?!" Saitama thought as something strange was happening inside of him "My heart...it's beating faster!" He realized as he continued to fight on "My blood it's boiling! and my body is starting to sweat! even my lungs are beginning feel short of breath!" He listed just as a subterranean the largest one so far rose from the earth and threw a punch in his direction "This...I REMEMBER THIS!" He discovered causing his eyes to go wide "THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO HAVE A REAL FIGHT!" He concluded as he punched the other's fist causing it's whole arm to break apart along with some of it's shoulder.
THUMP
THUMP
THUMP
THUMP
With each passing beat the sound from within him grew louder and faster as punch after punch more of the subterraneans died yet more and more still came from below with no end in sight. But it didn't matter to Saitama for while he was still fighting for those who had been killed unjustly at the same time he could not keep himself from being lost in the feeling of his body being pushed and tested as it used to when he first started training, for this was the first time in so long that he felt alive. Even time itself seemed to be lost as the fight raged on had it been going on for minutes?, hours, or maybe even a day? it was hard to say, for the only time in which he could think clearly was when finally after every conceivable space that surrounded him was filled to the brink with the creatures' remains whilst he stood on top of it all seeming to be on the verge of collapse. Thankfully though as the heavens seemed to show praise for his victory the skies darkened with clouds and a downpour began bringing both relief and refreshment to his tired form.
"Finally..." He breathed as he doubled over keeping his head between his knees "It's over...they're dead...the surface is safe..." He said to himself as he did his best to steady his breathing.
Sadly for our fair hero there would be no time to rest as the ground began to break apart and the cause of such was another subterranean though this one was the biggest by far around the size of a mountain at least. Furthermore it had two extra arms and it was dressed in mayan esque attire which matched the laser swords it held in each hand as the design of their handles were very similar.
"I see you've been keeping my children busy surface dweller!" It spoke it's voice like thunder crashing through the sky "Let's see how well you can handle yourself against the Subterranean King!" It challenged as it readied itself to strike.
Even though his breathing was still erratic and his body was worn down Saitama with a stern glare and his fist reared back without so much as a word charged towards the looming figure leaping into the air once he was but a few feet away from him.
"LET'S GO!" He shouted as their fight was underway.
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING SMASH
Those were the sounds which reached Saitama's ears as out of instinct the moment his alarm clock started to go off he brought his hand down onto it in hopes of silencing it. Yet today was much different for as he blinked a few times to ensure he was where he believed he was the slightest tiniest tinge of anger appeared for a second or so as it seemed all that had just transpired was but a dream. Which is EXACTLY why instead of simply pressing down on the device he hit it with his fist which sent it not only through his floor but all the others only stopping when it hit concrete.
"...*Sigh*..." He breathed as the minuscule of anger he felt left returning him to his normal non feeling self.
If anything it wasn't rage he should be feeling at that but more so disappointment for this wasn't the first nor would it be the last time a dream like that had happened, in fact they occurred on a frequent basis. Then again if it weren't for these kinds of dreams he wouldn't dream at all, for what was there to dream of? Money, fame, power, and so on he had it all and in such a copious amount he could lose three fourths of it and still be better off than nearly everyone he knew. But there was something different about this dream for unlike the others where he would simply be sleeping and be awoken by some monster that could match him blow for blow this one began with him asking himself those questions.
"I think I need to take a me day." He admitted as he sat up in his bed "The other heroes can handle anything that comes up I've been stressed these past few days and just need a breather." He decided before he got to his feet.
Proceeding to tidy up the space a bit due to the thrown about blanket and other miscellaneous things that laid about once that had been taken care of he went to his kitchen as to begin making breakfast. Yet as he was just about to open the fridge and see what it was he was in the mood for today a knock at his door caused him to stop.
"Who could that be?" He asked aloud as he knew very well no reporter nor fan would ever be brazen enough to knock on his door.
Making his way from the kitchen to his front door upon reaching it he looked through the peep hole and found a surprising sight.
"What're they doing here?" He wondered as he opened his door.
Wincing a bit as the daylight caught him by surprise once his vision had adjusted he looked to the two women standing on the other side.
"Uh hey." He greeted with a slight wave of his hand "What's up?" He asked hoping to gain an understanding as to why they were here.
"...We...we need to tell you something..." Fubuki confessed as she did her best to avoid eye contact.
"Oh? what is it? " He asked.
"...Can...can we come in?" She asked still adverting her gaze.
Looking between the two women with a raised brow Saitama while able to clearly see the nervousness that Fubuki was feeling when he looked to Tatsumaki he found she was looking at him as she always had with a glare. Yet as he continued to look at her, specifically her eyes, he could've sworn that she seemed to be nervous just as her sister was, though it was probably just his imagination.
"Sure." He answered looking back to Fubuki "Come on in." He instructed as he stepped aside to allow them entry.
Nodding her head as to show her understanding Fubuki walked into the apartment with Tatsumaki following right behind.
"Sorry if it's a bit messy." He apologized as he closed the door behind them "I just woke up and haven't even had breakfast yet." He explained.
"It's fine." Tatsumaki replied instead of her sister which admittedly surprised him since she had been quiet till now.
Taking their seats at his table they both waited until Saitama came over and sat across from them before either decided to say a word more.
"So." Tatsumaki spoke as he sat down "Bet you're wondering why we're here aren't you?" She asked.
"Yup." He answered which seemed to anger her.
"Could you at least ACT like you're interested?!" She asked crossing her arms as she did.
"Um...sorry?" He apologized confused as to why she was suddenly getting upset.
"Tatsumaki." Fubuki spoke looking to her sister "For ONCE could you PLEASE not be such a brat?" She asked.
Now normally as Saitama had come to expect from her Tatsumaki upon being called a brat would get pissed off and start spouting off insults of all kinds, yet even though her own sister calling her a brat was a bit of a surprise the REAL surprise came from her reaction, for instead of doing what was expected her face softened and she seemed to relax.
"...Sorry..." She apologized with a sigh before returning her sister's look with her own "But you KNOW how hard this is for me." She stated.
"I know." Fubuki replied as she closed her eyes "But it's not fair to Sai-*AHEM* One Punch Man if we act rude or strange in his own home when he doesn't even know what all of this is about." She reasoned.
"Speaking of which." He spoke regaining their attentions "Would you two mind telling me what is going on? you're both acting really weird." He told them.
Casting one more glance at each other both sisters took another deep breath as to keep themselves calm before they looked towards him.
"Do...you remember...how we first met?..." They asked in unison causing him in turn to close his eyes as to think.
"Hmm..." He hummed as he thought trying to recall the first time he encountered the sisters.
" *Sigh* Another let down..." Saitama said in a disappointed tone as he walked down the street.
After having bested yet ANOTHER monster with a single punch this one having been some kind of giant fan monster, Saitama began to walk back to his apartment. Thankfully though it was fairly late so there weren't too many people out which in turn meant he wouldn't be bothered by any fans or reporters so he could take a nice long stroll instead of having to run all the way back. However as he continued on his way he began to hear two people shouting and from their voices they sounded like women.
"What were you thinking Fubuki?!" One of the voices questioned it's tone clearly indicating anger "You could have been killed!" It berated.
"Why do you even care Tatsumaki?!" The other voice replied it also seeming to be angry "It's not like I ever asked you to come and save me!" It argued.
"I had to come save you! you idiot!" The first voice countered "I'm always having to save you when you get in over your head! because you won't get rid of those weaklings who are holding you back!" It scolded.
"DON'T CALL THEM WEAK!" The second voice barked back "They're strong! all of them! if anything the weakest one here is you!" It protested causing the first voice to laugh.
"HA! THAT'S HILARIOUS! ME?! WEAK?!" It questioned.
"YES YOU! YOU'RE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT STRENGTH AND HOW YOU'RE BETTER THAN EVERYONE! BUT THE FACT IS YOU'RE THE MOST INSECURE, PETTY, SCARED PERSON I'VE EVER KNOWN!" The second voice answered.
It was then that instead of hearing another shout from the first voice that Saitama heard something be slammed into a building nearby and from how loud it was whatever had done it used a sizable amount of force. Unsure as to what had happened Saitama rushed to the source only to find two women one tall with black hair and one short with green hair but both in full body black dresses and possessing the same green iris having a confrontation in an alleyway. However the confrontation wasn't a normal one for both women had this green light surrounding their bodies as well as the black haired one was pushed into the wall a few feet above the ground.
"HOW DARE YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!" The shorter one spoke revealing herself to be the owner of the first voice "ALL I'VE EVER DONE IS TRY TO HELP YOU BE STRONG! AS WELL AS PROTECT YOU! AND THIS IS HOW YOU TALK TO ME?!" She questioned as the other woman was pushed further into the wall indicating that whatever the green light was it was coming from her which to be fair made sense given her green hair.
"OH I'M SORRY! AM I SUPPOSED TO BE NICE TO YOU?! EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE CONSTANTLY BELITTLING ME AND MAKING ME FEEL LIKE SHIT?!" The other woman questioned "BECAUSE IF SO THEN YOU CAN FORGET IT TATSUMAKI BECAUSE THAT KIND OF TREATMENT IS RESERVED FOR PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT!" She shouted.
However instead of responding with words the light which surrounded Tatsumaki began to get brighter as her already angered expression worsened.
"DAMN YOU FUBUKI!" She shouted as she readied herself to attack no longer wishing to hold back.
Suddenly though as Fubuki closed her eyes expecting to be hit by a powerful surge of her sister's ESP a loud "CRACK" rang out through the air followed by her falling to the ground. Unsure as to what had just transpired she slowly opened her eyes expecting to find her sibling but instead found a face that ANYONE would know.
"O-One Punch Man?' She asked causing the other to look at her.
"Yeah that's me." He answered as he held out a hand to her "Are you okay?" He asked.
Still confused as to what was going on as well as where Tatsumaki was seeing as how she was still on the ground Fubuki reached out and grabbed onto his hand which caused him to pull her to her feet.
"Yeah I'm fine..." She answered as she straightened out her dress "Where's my sister?" She asked.
"Oh you mean the midget?" He asked before looking down into the alley "She's over there." He answered as he raised a finger to point.
Following his direction Fubuki's eyes widened at a sight which she NEVER thought she'd see before in her whole life, her sister the STRONGEST person she knew was lying on the ground holding her cheek as if she had been struck.
"W-What happened?..." She asked as she was still trying to process the scene before her.
"I saw her attacking you, so I slapped her." He answered causing her to move her gaze back to him.
"Y-You slapped her?" She asked "Y-You mean to tell me you actually got CLOSE to her?..." She asked earning a nod in a response.
"Yeah that's right." He said "It's not like it was anything special of course it was just a slap on the cheek, though she did go a lot farther than I thought she would." He admitted.
However before the two could continue their conversation a massive chunk of concrete was suddenly sent speeding towards them, but as quickly as it had appeared it was destroyed as without even averting his gaze from Fubuki he simply held out his fist due to instinct and shattered it as it made contact.
"Hm?" He sounded as he looked towards Tatsumaki only to find she was now standing on her feet seeming to be furious all the while her left hand was still holding her cheek.
"HOW DARE YOU!" She shouted as she pointed to him "FIRST YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO BUTT INTO OUR BUSINESS AND THEN YOU SLAP ME?!" She questioned.
"It wasn't your business." He responded causing her to get angrier.
"WHAT?!" She asked her whole face started to get red almost as if it were trying to match her bruised cheek.
"If you're gonna have a shouting match with your sister then do it indoors and not outside where ANYONE can hear you, otherwise you're just being a nuisance." He told her.
Unfortunately for Saitama that reply or perhaps the word "nuisance" set her off completely and instead of saying anything more she simply sent him straight down and kept doing so until he was damn near the center of the planet.
"There." She said as she glared towards the hole he disappeared into "How's THAT for a nuisance?" She asked.
"Tatsumaki what're you think-" Fubuki began to say to her sister only to stop dead cold.
"Are you going to finish that?" Tatsumaki asked as she found her sister's sudden silence to be strange.
Unable to respond to her sibling Fubuki simply stared at her though as she continued to look at her it seemed as though she was actually staring at something BEHIND her, so she began to turn around as to see what it was she could POSSIBLY be looking at. And never in her whole life had Tatsumaki regretted something as much as she did that decision.
"You really ARE a brat aren't you?" A dirt covered Saitama asked as he looked down towards her.
"N-No..." Tatsumaki muttered wide eyed as she took a step back "Th-There's no way...NO WAY THIS IS POSSIBLE!" She shouted as if trying to deny what was right in front of her.
Sadly no matter how hard she wanted to try and look away or pretend like this was some kind of dream as the expressionless face of Saitama looked to her she found herself unable to look away as well as move any further back, completely frozen like a deer in the headlights.
"I-I'M THE STRONGEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!" She protested as to try and make herself seem intimidating "Y-YOU'RE JUST SOME STUPID BALDY! A BOILED EGG! A LIGHT BULB!" She insulted hoping it would gain her SOMETHING in the way of leverage
Much to her dismay however instead of responding with words or even just SOMETHING in the way of a readable expression Saitama instead began to reach out towards her. And it was then that for the first time in what seemed like an eternity that Tatsumaki did something she vowed she would never do again, that she would never ALLOW herself to do. She shut her eyes tight in fear bracing for whatever was about to happen.
.
.
.
*pat*
Feeling her eyes shoot open at the contact Tatsumaki looked up towards Saitama wondering if he was trying to grab onto her head but found he had just patted her head.
"You shouldn't fight with your sister." He told her as he brought his hand back to his side.
"W-What?..." She asked utterly confused.
"I could hear you two shouting from down the street, and while it's none of my business it sounds like you two have a LOT of issues which aren't going to get solved with you just fighting about it." He explained "Then again I don't have a sibling so I guess my advice doesn't really have a lot of merit does it?" He asked.
Much as how her sister had done before Tatsumaki was doing her best as to try and process what was happening causing her to remain silent.
"But even so." He spoke again as he looked to the sky "There'd be a lot less problems in the world if people talked more and fought less..." He reasoned causing a chuckle to escape him "Though I guess that's kinda weird coming from a guy who punches people for a living huh?" He asked though unlike before he wasn't looking for an answer "Whelp, time to go home and take a bath, you covered me in dirt." He decided before he walked past her and down the alley.
Continuing to remain in a seemingly paralyzed state Tatsumaki would have remained that way for who knows how long if Saitama hadn't spoke up one more time.
"Hey." He said gaining not only her attention but Fubuki's as well "My name's Saitama by the way, if we ever see each other again call me that instead of One Punch Man, I get enough of that from the fans." He told them before continuing on his way.
And so as Saitama left the two sisters in the alley to deal with what had just happened both moved their gazes to each other as if communicating to each other via telekinesis.
"Oh yeah." He spoke as the memory finished playing in his mind "You both still haven't called me Saitama, especially you Tatsumaki." He pointed out.
"THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FOCUS ON!" They both shouted in unison the sheer volume being enough to push him back slightly.
"...Okay." He said plainly as he sat back upright "Then what WAS I supposed to focus on?' He asked.
"LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE!" Tatsumaki shouted as she stood up slamming her hands down onto the table as she did "WE WANTED YOU TO FOCUS ON THE ENCOUNTER SO WHEN WE TOLD YOU WE HAD A CRUSH ON YOU, YOU'D UNDERSTAND WHEN IT GOT STARTED YOU IDIOT!" She explained to him only to IMMEDIATELY place her hands over her mouth the moment she was finished.
Silence filled the apartment's space as her words seemed to be sinking in, like someone trapped in quicksand.
"OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!" Tatsumaki mentally screamed as she couldn't believe what she had just said.
"OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!" Fubuki ALSO mentally screamed just as her sister was all the while she was frozen stiff with her eyes as wide as dinner plates.
"..." He remained silent which only worsened their panic "...Okay...and is that supposed to surprise me or?..." He asked seeming to SOMEHOW make their eyes wider as he did.
"YOU KNOW?!" They asked in unison.
"Of course I know." He answered "Look I might not be the smartest guy around but when you have as many fans as I do you pretty much see EVERYTHING in regards to how people act whether it be like crazy lunatics or shy children there's NOTHING I haven't been exposed to." He explained.
"B-But if you knew then why didn't you say anything?..." Fubuki asked.
"Because you two are the most normal fans I have." He answered with a shrug "I mean sure you could be a bit weird at times but you were never ANNOYING...okay maybe Tatsumaki was a LITTLE annoying with the constant insults but other than that you two never did things that the fans normally do." He explained.
"Like what?" Tatsumaki asked.
"For starters you don't camp outside my apartment building." He began as he put a hand to his chin "But looking past that stalker level of dedication you also don't try to cling to me like a parasite, you don't cheer my name every two seconds, in short while you two ARE fans of me you're still ACTUAL people and you treat ME like a person instead of some kind of idol who needs to be worshiped." He answered.
Silence once more came over the air of the apartment as the sisters let his response sink in, they actually to their surprise felt their hearts begin to beat slower as well as their bodies begin to cool showing that they were calming down.
"So...this doesn't bother you right?" Fubuki asked.
"I don't see why it would." He told her "It's like I said out of ALL the people who have crushes on me you guys don't go digging through my trash or something else that's really just creepy and stupid, all you do is get a little flustered but other than that you still act normal which I appreciate." He explained with a smile.
Upon seeing him smile if there was any nervousness or worry still present in the sisters it quickly vanished as what they thought would be the single worst moment in their lives turned out to possibly be the best.
"I do have one question though." He admitted "Why is it you guys developed crushes for me? like the specific reason." He asked making sure to specify what he was seeking clarity on.
"Well..." Fubuki began as she thought on it "I guess for me it was the fact you were willing to help me, as well as the fact that as we kept running into each other you never brushed me off or ignored me due to my ranking in the association, which is something I wasn't used to given that Tatsumaki always stressed being strong was the most important thing in the world, so it was nice knowing someone where that didn't matter at all." She explained.
"Oh." He sounded before looking towards Tatsumaki "And what about you?" He asked.
"..." She kept silent while staring towards her lap "...Ever since I was a kid...people tried to make me into a weapon...then a time came when those people left me to die...so it was either be strong enough to survive...or be killed..." She began "But once it was over I thought that maybe the world wasn't like that, that people were actually good and things would be better..." She went on "But they weren't, everyone was just like them only paying respect to those who were the strongest while the weakest were trampled..." She continued before moving her gaze from her lap to him "But then you came along...and that night happened...and instead of killing me for what I did to you which anyone else if they were as strong as you would've you didn't...and so...that's how MY crush developed..." She finished.
"All because I showed you mercy?" He asked causing her to close her eyes whilst letting out a small chuckle.
"Well YEAH if you want to make it as simple as that." She answered.
"Huh." He sounded as he leaned back using his hands to keep him from falling to the floor "Well I guess that's that then." He said as he looked between them "So what do you two plan to do now that this is all out in the open?" He asked.
Though not completely surprised by his question both sisters didn't have a response at the ready for it and so they looked towards each other seeming to have a conversation over telekinesis which only lasted a minute or two before they looked back to him.
"If it's alright with you Saitama...could we maybe...stop by sometime?" Fubuki asked "Just to hang out of course, like how King does." She added.
"Yeah sure that's fine with me." He answered "I mean you guys ARE my friends so it's kinda weird you haven't done that yet anyways." He admitted.
"You see us as friends?" Tatsumaki asked as that surprised her a lot more than it did Fubuki.
"Well you're not enemies." He reasoned "And while we've never ACTUALLY hanged out before we've been around each other enough to where I'd say we're more than just acquaintances so yeah friends seems right." He added.
Feeling for the first time in a long while true genuine smiles comes to their faces both Fubuki and Tatsumaki couldn't keep themselves from showing their appreciation.
"Thank you." They both said in unison bowing their heads slightly as they did.
"Hey no need to make a big deal out of it." He told them "Though now we have to do something to make it truly official." He admitted.
"What?" They asked.
"We have to have a meal together." He answered as he got to his feet "Me and King always have something to eat when we hang out and because it's still morning that means I can make us all breakfast." He explained as he went to the kitchen
"Oh no we wouldn't want to make you cook for us." Fubuki said though it was completely shot down as Tatsumaki spoke up right after.
"Can you make pancakes?" She asked causing her sister to give her a "What're you doing?!" sort of look.
"Sure." He answered as he turned on his stove.
And so while Fubuki was a tad bit irritated at how seemingly relaxed Tatsumak was to be at taking advantage of Saitama's hospitality both sisters admittedly felt as though a massive weight had been taken from them causing their smiles to grow a tad bit bigger.
