"I did not think we would be running the whole way" Genos stated in confusion as he powered through the woods. Surely they could have gotten a bus or something out of the city then they could have hiked the rest of the way; but he was not bothered by the exercise they were doing.
"Got a better plan?" Saitama retorted bluntly. It's not like there were any transport that came this way; plus, it was faster and no traffic to deal with. Plus it was helping keep her in shape; not that her strength didn't but she had to maintain her body somehow.
"It was my assumption you had the ability to fly" Genos explained apologetically. I mean she was a strong heroine after all; such things were normal in that area. However it seemed she lacked in that one superhero power; however that didn't make her weak by any means whatsoever.
"You know humans can't do that, right?" Saitama retorted sarcastically. Only aliens and mutants could so such a thing; I mean behind her strength she was still normal. They then began leaping up a rocky boulder mountain. Saitama mentally sighed as it meant her breasts would only bounce around more than they had been while running.
"It's astounding that you are never late; you are a true heroine" Genos retorted proudly. To always be on time to save the day and defeat dangerous enemies just like in comic books. This only made him admire Saitama all the more for what she was capable of; how she didn't have any fans was astounding to him.
"Really? Your joking, right? I hardly ever arrive on time" Saitama retorted her tone joking. No matter what it was she was always late no matter what the situation was; kind of a pain really. The fact that she had a bad memory didn't help either; she tended to have to write important things down just so she didn't forget.
Genos thumped down swiftly landing outside the enemies' base. It was smaller than he thought it would be but still pretty large. However, it would be an easy feat for someone like him to take down.
"This is the location that lackey told us about" Genos confirmed sternly. He had told the truth after all; otherwise he would have had to inflict further damage to him. However it didn't seem like such a big deal after Armoured Gorilla had given that extensive speech on his creator; he expected something...a bit more flashy.
"So, this is…." Saitama trailed off. It looked to be nothing more than a mossy, vine covered abandoned building; so much for a hideout. She had expected something more SCI-Fi based; all technological and advanced science; like out of the movies. This looked like some run down hotel that the city had forgotten to demolish.
"The house of evolutions" Genos confirmed proudly. They had finally found it; now Saitama could get revenge for her house and he could get more information on his enemy.
Saitama counted quietly droning off at the last minute "Seems like there is at least 8 floors" she confirmed lazily. God that would mean a lot of stairs and useless searching; but whatever it was good exercise and she was anything but lazy so...whatever.
Before she could speak another word; Genos blasted the entire block to ash within a matter of seconds creating a shock wave and a large smoky cloud to erupt from the current location.
"Um…wasn't that a bit much?" Saitama said thoughtfully. They could have at least checked out the building a little before taking such actions. Luckily there was nobody inside but if there had been; that would have made them murderers. He really was a bit too impulsive sometimes; maybe he should work on toning that down.
Genos said nothing his head bowed low; he then turned to face his sensei adamantly his expression stern. "You see; in the method of efficiency I thought it would be best to simply get trouble out of the way" Genos explained calmly.
Saitama stared at the new cavern before them "Well; we could have at least seen if they could manage to put up a fight" she explained awkwardly. But now they would never know.
"You kind of jumped the gun on that one" she scolded slightly. He really needed to learn how to be patient instead of constantly just using weapons as a first resort. Genos looked around curiously before Saitama stopped before a steel trap door. It obviously led somewhere meaning an underground hideout of sorts.
Saitama crouched down and yanked on the bolted door to reveal stairs leading somewhere "Guess he's hiding in the basement" she said bluntly. Typical jock; he acted big and tough but basically lived in his basement instead of actually lived in his basement and never had any form of human contact.
In basement
It was dank, dark and wet; water dripped from the ceiling, pipes and soaked the floor. It was profusely dark with only the ceiling lights to offer some form of illumination in the shadowed halls.
A large cry was heard echoing from the hallways. One of Genus clones stood in a giant room shooting a gun endlessly at a giant brown beast standing before him. "Stop it; just stay away" the clone begged desperately. Why did he feel the need to do this? Why couldn't he just be reasonable and obey?
Within an instant, he was punched by Kabuto causing him to explode just like the other clones. The room was splattered with blood revealing Kabuto had indeed slaughtered every single one.
Genus quietly walked up from behind quietly gazing upon the massacre. Though he had tried to avoid he would have to risk talking to the beast himself. "Hey…. carnage Kabuto" Genus responded nervously. His heart was in his throat and his skin was dancing with fear; sweat dripping from all over his body.
The beat turned to face his master quietly; he knew that voice. It was the voice of the one who created him; but also, kept him locked down here in the darkness. So after all this time he had finally showed his face instead of just a computer screen hiding in a room in the higher ups; mocking him with his freedom.
"Tell me are you feeling alright? It seems you killed a bunch of my clones again" Genus asked animosity strong in his tone. This felt like a bad idea; such a bad idea. No matter he could always create more using his technology and genes; though it would take a while for them to grow.
"Are you satisfied?" he asked somewhat beggingly. Surely this would be enough for now; to hold him off before he found that bald woman and her accomplice. Thankfully they were in the higher ups of the building meaning they would meet them soon enough.
Carnage Kabuto turned to face him his eyes filled with annoyance "You fool! Why the hell would I be satisfied huh?" he growled angrily. For all he had endured up till now as a test subject he had a lot of pent up rage and hate towards the doctor.
The doctor stood there quietly his face grimaced; he knew just how angry and resentful this creature was towards him. For keeping him locked up inside here and never letting him go outside.
"I've been kept locked up beneath the earth; I'm the strongest warrior ever of the house of evolution!" he growled fiercely snapping his restraining collar from his neck. If he was by far the most powerful creation; why was he treated as some form of slave instead of the god he was?
"You were imprisoned because your mentally unstable. We couldn't control you there was no choice in the matter" Genus explained coldly. For all he had managed to combine all the best attributes; he lacked the sanity the rest of them all had. He was unreasonable and nothing but a giant ball of destructive form; a mindless weapon.
Kabuto slammed his foot down and moved closer to his master laughing manically "You couldn't control me?". Just what made him think he ever could? Stupid fool. Guess this was a real bite in the ass after working so hard for so many years to create him.
"I am the ultimate accumulation of the new human you guys have sought for so long!" Kabuto mocked. He was everything he had ever wanted into one being; so why did he hate him so much? Why was he not praising him instead?
"My physical strength and intelligence are incomparable to your own. The way I see it…" Kabuto mocked leaning down to face his master menacingly."…You and all of your clones should be obeying me" he mocked licking the sweat from Genus. He could practically smell the fear on this guy; how interesting indeed.
"No, you're a failure…." Genus mentally thought as he watched the beast before him. "…. It's true you perform at unheard levels; you lack humanity" he growled. He was disgusted that his intellect had managed to create something so...psychotic.
He lacked a sense of fear, a heart, mercy, all reasonable things any living creature should have. This creature was nothing but blood lust and sadism in a shell of a beetle; that's why he locked him away.
"Go ahead and kill me if you want; plenty of clones could take my place" Genus explained calmly. He had cloned multiple versions of himself; each with his personality and make up.
They could take over his role with his ideals as they all thought about the same thing. They were all the same through and through to every fiber of their being. They had the same goals, the same ideals; they were all his copy from his personality to his date of birth.
"Huuuuh?" the beast growled mockingly. What was this? He wanted to die? Is that why he came here alone? Guess he would finally get some peace by killing the very person who had caged him up like a pet and never let him be free to do what he was born to do; create carnage.
"But I have a favour to ask first; there's a specimen I simply must have" Genus explained adamantly. A picture of the very seductive Saitama looking blank faced while Genos followed her into the lab showed up before them.
Kabuto looked up at the screen quietly; he could see a young woman in strange clothes walking beside a blonde cyborg. But why would Genus want that girl? Did he plan on using her for another experiment? Or something more personal?
"She's proven to be incredibly strong despite her appearance; only you could defeat her" Genus explained coldly. With all his intellect he would be beaten by her easily; seeing as how efficiently she had taken out all his lackeys upon trying to capture her from her home.
"I want you to catch her for me" he added wearily. He was the only one who could do it; the only one who was strong enough. However part of him doubted what he was doing; that he was being too reckless and should have tried something else entirely.
Kabuto laughed darkly; new prey huh? She looked pretty tasty for a human girl; perhaps he could have some fun with her. He wondered what she would sound like if she screamed in pain as he hurt her over and over again; fear filling her pretty little eyes.
