Thanks for some of the amazing feedback. Here's another chapter with another one coming up soon. It maybe a little slow in the beginning but if you want the Saitama-Arashi moments go down to the middle of the story although I suggest reading all of it. I might have broken some of the laws of physics in this chapter but I'm not a physics major. Please provide feedback as I want to know what I can improve on and what you guys think about the story.
"Take this Saitama!" yelled out a deep manly voice from the strongest man alive. King 'retired' from being a superhero, but that didn't stop him from stopping bad guys…. In video games. He became a professional gamer and streamer, earning millions from it.
They were in the middle of a water balloon fight with all of the heroes and were on teams. If you get hit by a water balloon which causes it to break, then you are eliminated from the game. A whole team will be eliminated if all people on that team are out. Saitama was paired with Zombieman and Class S rank 4 Fubuki (Long story short, Saitama helped Tatsumaki realize how great her sister was and helped rekindle their relationship with one another. Tats helped with Fubuki's confidence which made her realize her full potential). Arashi was paired with her friends, and Bang was paired with King and Class A rank 101 Snek. Most of the other teams were eliminated already, mostly from Fubuki using her psychic powers launching thousands of balloons at everyone that tried to take over the playground.
A green glow surrounded hundreds of water balloons. Saitama, Zombieman, and Fubuki were on the top layer of the playground each holding water balloons to defend their turf. They had the high ground. Atomic Samurai who was paired with Puri Puri Prisoner, and Charanko were charging the playground trying to beat Saitama's group. However, as they got closer, Fubuki launched her special move 'balloon blizzard'. She made it rain endless balloons on the advancing heroes. Hundreds of water balloons simultaneously hit Puri Puri Prisoner who fell on the ground soggy. "Avenge me brothers! But don't get too wet for later!" PPP said. Atomic Samurai sliced every water balloon that came his way easily while Charanko who almost had his master's speed was able to dodge any of Fubuki's attack.
"It's no use Fubuki. You have to be quicker to strike them. Like this." Saitama said as he launched two water balloons so fast, that Fubuki didn't even see him throw them. It also caused a sonic boom that was audible a mile away. One moment Atomic Samurai was charging the playground and the next moment it felt like a bullet hit him as he fell to the ground looking at his clothes that were soaking wet. "Shit! I didn't even see it!" he said. PPP acknowledge "Such strength, no wonder that little green esper loves him." PPP whispered under his breath, "I wish he was mine!" As he gazed at Saitama on the top of the playground.
"Well that took care of that" Saitama remarked after witnessing Atomic Samurai fall. "Not quite, you missed one" Zombieman interjected. Saitama stopped dead in his tracks, with a bead of sweat falling down his face while one of his veins were visibility popping. "WHAT!? That balloon went like twice the speed of sound? Who could dodge it?"
"Me!" Saitama's group turned around to see Charanko with a serious face with veins bulging out around his face and arms. He had three water balloons.
Giving him as little reaction time as possible, Saitama threw a water balloon at Charanko. Just like Bang in Jan Ken Pon, he was quicker than Saitama. Charanko bent his legs like in the Matrix as the water balloon barely went over his body missing him. He could feel, see and hear the sonic boom that was exerted by the balloon. The balloon kept flying until it hit a tree half a mile away and with just the kinetic energy alone knocked over the huge tree. Before anyone else could react, Charanko side stepped behind Saitama poised to strike. Charanko could see the back of the bald hero's head reflecting the bright sun. Charanko spoke aloud "I got you this time." But he spoke too soon as he felt a splash of water and his clothes becoming soaked.
"Dammit! I was aiming for Saitama! But I guess that lame martial artist is still good enough for me." King shouted out. He admits he might have been lucky to hit someone since his aim wasn't so good.
Charanko was still holding his water balloon about to cry realizing he had been hit by the world's luckiest man (King). He fell to the floor admitting defeat. Saitama looked to base of the playgrounf where king was, "Dang looks like King helped us out man. Thanks King!" He waved to King. "But you're still our enemy."
Fubuki used this opportunity to use her psychic abilities to get rid of King. But while trying to summon her powers, a rare natural phenomenon occurred in the air, interfering with her brain signals. "I can't use my powers right now. I'm temporarily disabled." She responded.
"Don't push yourself too hard, Zombieman and I got this." Saitama assured her. Zombieman aimed for King and threw a few balloons at him. Unfortunately, they all popped mid air. Zombieman picked up another balloon which popped as soon as it left his hand.
"Man what is up with these Balloons?" A bewildered Zombieman spoke
"I got this there is no way I can miss." Saitama said as he brushed Zombieman to the side. Saitama threw a casual throw to King. The wind picked up randomly, and the balloon went to the left of his face. Now getting upset, Saitama threw another balloon with much more force causing another sonic boom. Just before it landed on King's face, a bird flew by King which hit and disintegrated it. "Man if I didn't know any better, I'd say he's pretty Lucky." Saitama replied after all of that.
However Saitama was too busy with King, that he didn't notice Snek slithering up the side of the walls of the playground. Very cautiously, he made his way to the top platform where Saitama and his group was. He noticed that all of them were paying attention to King, and this was the perfect ambush opportunity. He got ready to strike aiming for the big bald head and threw his water balloon. Fubuki noticed the balloon and shouted to Saitama. "Look out!" But she found herself lunging to protect him. She received the wet balloon and her clothes became soaking wet resulting in her defeat.
"Oh I didn't see you Snek." Saitama said casually and then barely tossed a balloon at him which hit him. Snek shrugged it off, he was happy to just get someone. He maybe last in Class A but too many people underestimate him.
"Good job Snek! You got Fubuki, now I can get Saitama." spoke an old man's voice. Saitama turned away from Snek to face the old man who was standing by the base of the playground. "Oh by the way Saitama, do you know when we're eating lun…." Bang stopped as he saw hundreds of water balloons flying in his direction.
"Consecutive water balloon throws" Saitama spoke in a monotone voice. While throwing hundreds of balloons while he replied to Bang "We'll eat lunch when Dr. Genus catering company comes here."
Bang nonchalantly dodged every water balloon due to his super amazing reflexes and even managed to break into a conversation about how good Dr. Genus's food is.
"Enough, time to end this. I only have two water balloons left." Saitama said in a rather pissed off tone. He wound up like a pitcher and launched the balloon that was aimed at Bang. When he let go of the balloon, a trail of smoke followed it, looking like a missile rather than any normal water balloon. Bang was extremely fast and could dodge almost anything even if they are hypersonic. But Bang could almost not even see the balloon. It would be like dodging a 100 mph (160kph) baseball for us normal humans. Bang barely moved to the left dodging the balloon. Soon afterward the shockwave was enough to throw him back a couple meters. Despite dodging the balloon, he felt another shockwave as if the balloon had hit someone behind him.
But when Saitama looked up after throwing, his face changed immediately into guilt and anger. The balloon missed Bang and hit Zombieman who was right behind him trying to sneak an attack on the old man. It caused an explosion from the kinetic energy alone which blew pieces of him everywhere. Bang caught Zombieman's face who was still conscious much to everyone's relief.
"Don't worry guys I'm alright, I'll regenerate my whole body in about an hour." the head replied.
Bang put his head down out of the area and came back in front of the playground to face a now very serious Saitama. All he could see was his white eyes and very chiseled face. But all he had to do was dodge one last balloon form him.
"YOU! You made me eliminate my only teammate left!" Saitama shouted almost out of his character as if he was actually getting serious about the game. Bang felt a blackhole aura that he couldn't escape out of. He only felt one thing, Death and he knew he couldn't escape it. Only by luck, he felt a force instantly drop him to the floor. The water balloon, now a hypersonic cannonball, barely brushed over him. The shockwave pushed him a few meter into the ground, and the heat of the friction from the air burned off most of his clothes. The balloon now turned into a fireball that resembled a meteror falling form the sky.
Saitama looked as Bang miraculously dodged the balloon, but when the old man ducked Saitama saw a small green haired child about 20 meters behind Bang. His eyes filled with sheer horror as the most important thing in his life was in front of a meteor size fireball hurling towards her at nearly mach 50. He might have gone too far with this one as he saw the balloon approaching her rapidly. Saitama took off nearly instantly in a speed no other object has ever achieved on Earth. Everything looked frozen in Saitama's POV, but still the fireball was moving pretty fast towards her. The water balloon was about 3 meters from Arashi's face as Saitama just as he passed Bang who was embedded into the ground. Saitama was on fire just like the water balloon from his speed, but of course he didn't feel anything.
Saitama was now arm's length from the balloon but the balloon was about a foot away from Arashi's face. But before he could stop the water balloon, a light green glow surrounded it. The balloon's velocity descended rapidly. It stopped an inch from her face. Saitama then stopped too utterly in disbelief mixed with relief.
As everything returned to a normal speed, Saitama stopped in front of Arashi. The momentum of his speed continued on with a cloud of air that rushed past her for miles which carved a whole into the clouds above. Luckily no one else was in the blast's direction. After the cloud dispersed around him, a small child stood in front of him with now slightly frizzy hair from the blast. Saitama dropped his jaw and was extremely flustered. The fact that she could react that quickly actually made him really proud.
"Excuse me dad, I have to get this old man eliminated." A cute but serious voice spoke as Saitama stepped aside whispering "OK". A green glow surrounded the crater that Bang was in causing all the dirt to be lifted up. What came out was an almost naked old man who was rocked to his core. The green glow surrounded the old man and as she brought him closer to her. She levitated the same water balloon that Saitama threw at her and tossed it Bang. The cold water brought some life into the old man's eyes after barely avoiding death. Thankfully, he returned back to normal.
"Aw Arashi! Good job eliminating me! Oh by the way, this is one hell of a party, you know that right!" The old man greeted her while still floating in the air. This brought a smile to her face. She loved Bang who was like a grandpa and loved his sense of humor. She would always call him gramps and loved to be in his dojo with Charanako.
"Hey Gramps, I pushed you into the floor! Otherwise you'd end up like that." As she pointed towards Zombieman. He chuckled too and was grateful that she had saved his life earlier. She floated him towards the side where all the other eliminated players were watching with amusement.
She faced towards King with a menacing glare; her brown eyes locked with his. He dropped all the water balloons he was holding and lifted both arms in the air signaling defeat while the King engine was roaring like never before. He walked towards the eliminated players side without saying any words. He knew he could do nothing to her, especially after watching her catch Saitama's hypersonic water balloon.
"You better start running dad." Arashi said in such an extremely adorable voice, but make no mistake, for even though she is cute and all she is deadly lethal. A green glow surrounded hundreds of water balloons hovering above her head. Saitama wasn't scared or anything but he simply admired what he witnessed in the showcase earlier. He was processing everything that happened in the last few minutes that he didn't even notice that another small girl with a bicycle helmet and glasses was sneaking up on him. She waved to everyone in the eliminated section, more specifically her dad who was watching proudly. She threw the water balloon which popped on Saitama's shiny bald head which drenched him from head to toe.
"YES! I GOT HIM! ME! MORGAN RIDER! WATER BALLOON OF JUSTICE!" As the young girl jumped in the air with glee. What followed was all of Arashi's friends celebrating because her team won the water balloon fight.
Not really noticing why everyone was cheering for something, he just scratched his face and notice that his hand was wet. "Dang you got me Morgan. Good match everyone." Facing Bang, "Hey sorry about that earlier, I might have gotten carried away."
"It's all fine, besides your little one not only saved me but read your attack so easily."
Saitama looked over at his daughter who was screaming in excitement as all of her friends were giving her high fives and hugs. Speaking of hugs, he really wanted to give one to her for being the best daughter in the world. Saitama wasted no time, as he basically teleported in front of her with his arms wide open. While still drenched from the water balloon, he gave her a tight wet hug which would kill any normal person from his strength, but to Arashi this was his normal affectionate daddy hug.
"Heya! Dad! Come on, not in front of my friends again!" Whined the little girl, although she loved every moment of it despite getting a little soaked from him. She shrugged while hugging him back with even more force and an even bigger smile. An audible 'crack' could be heard as she popped Saitama's back a little causing even more force to his hug.
"Alright nobody eats anything until Arashi and her friends get what they want first." yelled a commanding Saitama which made everyone nod. He then pointed to Pig God with a serious look "Especially you!"
Dr. Genus and Armored Gorilla set up all the food from their catering company and displayed it in the park. After the house of evolution fell, they started a restaurant that became one of the most popular in city Z. Dr. Genus devoted his extreme intelligence to combine the best flavors in food and serve them to people.
A couple minutes later as everyone settled with their food, Genos came back to the party with the special green cake. "Sensai, I brought a delicious cake that Arashi will surely enjoy"
"That doesn't look like the ice cream cake I got for a bargain price." Saitama squinted his eyes trying hard to remember if he even got her an ice cream cake in the first place. Genos couldn't believe Saitama, has he really forgotten about the fiasco three years ago at the ice cream shop?
"Keeping within 20 words, Tatsumaki is upset at you, while we got a different cake and she's kinda blowing off steam right now." Those words that Genos said hit Saitama in his face making him extremely anxious and putting on an 'oh shit' face. He grabbed tight onto the table cloth that he was sitting by with his heart accelerating in beats. 'Ice cream cake', how can he be so clueless as he just remembered about the incident that destroyed Tatsumaki's favorite ice cream store. He knew she'll give him one hell of a lecture making every part of him sweat a little.
Genos observed his master becoming increasingly more uneasy knowing that Tatsumaki will make quite the scene later. He wanted to lighten up the mood a little. "Sensai, everything is not at a loss, I got Arashi her favorite flavor cake. This will make her extremely happy and lessen Tatsumaki's rage later." Saitama looked up at Genos feeling a little easier.
"QUICK! BEFORE SHE COMES!" He shouted. Saitama got on top of a table to broadcast himself "EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING! IT'S CAKE TIME!" Everyone looked up to a crazy, panicking Saitama. He grabbed the cake and rushed towards Arashi. While she gazed at the special green cake, every part of Arashi started to move up and down in excitement with her brown eyes lighting up. Saitama noticed how wild and excited she was and was glad that Genos came by to save the day again.
"The green cake! Yay! I love it! It's my favorite! Thanks dad!" the cute voice said a loud while hugging her dad, who was avoiding eye contact from Genos.
"Did anyone order a CLOWN!" a creepy raggedy voice spoke from behind Saitama. He looked behind him to see a tall sketchy looking clown with paint that's chipping off his face.
"Sensai, who is that?"
"Oh he's the clown that I sorta hired yesterday." Yesterday, a mysterious clown went to talk to Saitama asking about going to his party. He said he'd do it for free which was money to Saitama's ears as he agreed to it.
Arashi didn't really care, she just wanted to eat her special green cake. But before she took a bite into it, the clown teleported towards her, grabbed the cake and smashed it into her face sending pieces everywhere. Saitama started to feel anxious again as he was too scared to looked at his daughter with cake smashed onto her face.
The clown smiled revealing its razor sharp teeth. It quickly transformed into a semi-clown semi-monster hybrid. "It's party time!" it rejoiced.
Mumen Rider was the first one to respond while launching himself towards the monster. He punched its stomach which blew a gaping hole and shredded its inside parts everywhere. Mumen Rider paused as he observed it regenerate back its organ. "Dam regeneration!"
Atomic Samurai unsheathed his sword and lunged towards the clown. He sliced every cubic centimeter of the beast which turned him into minced meat. "See guys, you just need a little edge, that's all." But he spoke too soon as the monster regenerated back into one piece.
Bang spoke out remembering this situation from a long time ago. "Maybe its got one of those blue marble things in it?"
Saitama was on his knees getting ever more nervous while placing his hands over his stomach which was upset. He looked over at the monster thinking 'I can't do this' as he started to become scared again. It's been a long time since he felt this scared, maybe not since his wedding with Tatsumaki where he almost forgot what to say during it. As the other heros were battling the monster, he knew it was no use what would happen. He knew it would be the end.
"I'm sorry Tats, I'm so sorry!"
A green mushroom cloud exploded in the middle of the park which got the attention of everyone. Saitama was so scared and anxious about not only dealing with his wife that will be lecturing him, but to calm down Arashi.
A green cloud surrounded a small girl while the wind around the park was picking up in a circular motion. In the center was a visible bright green light that poured out of her eyes with everything in the park glowing green.
Everyone looked up at the storm that was brewing knowing full on what was about to happen.
She turned into…. The HURRICANE OF HORROR!
