Chapter 1

--

Tatsumaki walked through the Hero association hallway, even though she knew what was going to happen, she couldn't help but feel nervous, it had passed much time since everything happened, to think they had been warned by that prophet old woman, it was still hard to think, it was also hard to believe that se was still able to walk by inertia on the HQ, so much had happened since the last time she was here.

Lost in her thoughts, she didn't noticed a figure behind her, the next thing she felt was a pair of arms surrounding her from behind, embracing her arms with his own, she tensed up a bit at the touch of the stranger, it was still odd for her to do that, on other circumstances she would have destroyed the entire building within seconds just because of this, but she let it slide, only because she knew exactly who the intruder was, she didn't needed to look at the red gloves on her body to know, not even the bald head behind of her.

-Hey, are you alright Tats? You seem…a bit tense-

Said Saitama as he gave her a small kiss on her head, her hair had always fascinated him, specially when it glowed like a Christmas tree, Tatsumaki glared at him with a warning look, yet, it wasn't a mad one, it looked more like a worried one

-What are you doing here baldy?-

She asked a bit dryly, Saitama recoiled a bit at this, he knew why she was asking that

-I..I just thought I could come here to check on you-

-You know they could notice us right?-

-I don't think so, Genos, Bang, King, and the rest of the S-class are more than 3 hallways far from here-

Seeing that she wasn't convinced, he calmly elaborated

-Besides, I don't think none would dare to question something to the almighty Tornado of terror, Tatsumaki Kage…-

He was stopped on his tracks by himself, tensed up by his mistake, and corrected the surname of the woman infront of him

-Koyama, while she is going to the restroom-

Tatsumaki glared at him with a worried and amused stare.

-Im not talking about your cyborg boyfriend baldy, it's the Hero association we are talking about, they have cameras everywhere-

Saitama looked curiously at her

-On the girls restroom?-

Tatsumaki groaned

-Most likely, I would not be surprised if they had, after all, Metal Knight was the one who designed this, didn't he?, his paranoia with security would include cameras on the restrooms-

Saitama sighed, she was right, and even if for him or even her, this charade was no problem to keep, it was becoming exhausting, but he still tried to make a comeback

-I think the one getting paranoid here is you Tats, but its alright, I understand, it is not to difficult to keep our act on anyways-

Tatsumaki grinned

-Okay then Baldy, then in order to correct your silly mistake here, Ill have to respond Like the Tatsumaki from the past-

Saitama felt a sour feeling come from his stomach, even when he was already used to Tatsumaki's shouting, he still couldn't help but feel bad and strange everytime they had to do this, after all, they had overcame this a long ago, it felt like going backwards, he prepared for the ranting that was about to come

-WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING HERE IDIOT? You are supposed to be on the S-class meeting room! Why where you at the girls restroom anyways egghead?! Where you sneaking?!, You disgust me! How dare you touch me!, LEAVE, NOW!-

Before Saitama could do something she quickly rushed to his face and gave him a quick kiss on the lips, before grabbing his face to get near his ear, she then softly whispered.

-At least wait till we get home to do that-

She then rushed to the meeting room, leaving a surprised Saitama on the the hallway, part impressed, part amused, part confused

-What happened to the "They have cameras everywhere?"-

He then calmly started walking to the meeting room

Genos was Talking with Bang when he saw Tornado come from one of the hallways, and after 3 minutes, his master came out of the same hallway, his dissapereance had worried him, but when he noticed that he had a tea can on his hand, he calmed, his master liked tea, in most all if its presentations, so this was not weird, when he became an S-class, the same day as he made the exam with him, he appeared to forget some of his financial worries, the payment was the reason behind it, and even through that, he still didn't spent much money, buying a tea can was not even something that would be reflected on his master's money account, but was still weird, he approached Saitama.

-Master! Where were you?-

Saitama was pulled out of his momentary trance by his disciple, who as energetic as always, was asking where had he been, his phased mind almost made another mistake, but he was able to correct it by taking a sip from the can

-I went to get some tea, I would not like to ask Sitch for it and interrupt him, I would be very rude-

Just as if summoned, Sitch entered the room

-Good afternoon, sorry for keeping you waiting, first of all, I would like to introduce our newest S-class additions, Demon cyborg and Caped baldy-

An almost unaudible groan was made by Saitama, Genos noticed it, but he wasn't the only one, three chairs away from Saitama, Tatsumaki chuckled silently at Saitama's reaction, she was never going to get over the fact that he hated so much his hero name, even though it was the pure truth about him, the rest of the S-class gave a tiny applause for them.

-As for the important matter, I know you all know about Madame Shibabawa's death-

Sitch started reading the papers and everything he had about the old prophet and her prophecy, Saitama and Tatsumaki looked at him as he elaborated, that prediction was the one that warned them of all that was going to come upon them, they tried to pay as much attention as they could, passing through metal bats unpolite interruptions and a bit of sassy acting from Tatsumaki, lost in his thoughts, he was pulled out when a rumble made the Association HQ move, He knew exactly what it was, and quickly glanced at Tatsumaki, the first one of the menaces had came, They glanced at each other as they both whispered.

-Boros-

Not a moment later, another man in a suit entered the meeting room, he looked alarmed.

-What happened?-

Sitch asked to the scared man

-The totality of city A was destroyed, a large ship appears to be outside, and a brown monster is on the remains of the city-

Sitch felt a chill run down his spine, not a moment later, all of the S-class, was leaving their seats and heading down to the city, Tatsumaki glanced at her back, where a hole could be seen on the ceiling, she knew who had made that.

-You better finish this quick Baldy, or else Im gonna bury you deep down on the garden-

She spoke to herself as she called kid emperor and Genos, and headed out, When they reached the top of the building, they could see Saitama standing on the edge, watching the ship and the destroyed city, if he did not remembered bad, he needed to strike directly on the center of the ship so he could get straight to Boros, he then glanced down to the city, where Atomic Samurai's diciple was fighting a brown monster, then the rest of the S-class arrived and joined the fight, he never fought that one, it would be interesting, but he hadn't the same liberty he had before, now he had to return alive, he had to, for her, and even If he knew that he was going to survive, he needed to do it fast to not worry Tatsumaki, the last time he had enjoyed himself a little, but it was just him, now they where both of them, and even If he wanted to have fun, he couldn't worry Tatsumaki, not after what had happened, he then was pulled out of his thoughts by a hand on his shoulder.

-Oy, baldy, are you okay?-

Tatsumaki was floating next to him, they both were alone on the building, he glanced at her, and let himself get lost in her jade eyes, he then smiled kindly at her

-Yup, everything's all right-

-Well, okay then baldy, I don't know what you did las time when fighting this dude, but you have to do it fast-

-Yeah, I know, I'll try to do it fast-

Tatsumaki sighed deep down her, she knew she would probably be no match for the alien, not with the current state of her powers and even if she managed to defeat him, she was going to have a rough time, another collateral effect of what happened, they both had experienced a reduction on their powers, they weren't as strong as before, it wasn't much reflected on Saitama, but she could feel her powers weaker than before, she washed away those thoughts, she had to try, even when she already knew the answer to her question.

-You know I could come with you, right baldy?-

Saitama glanced again at her, she could see concern on his eyes, but not the bad one, not the pitty she hated so much, it was a genuine concern

-I know, we could fight it better, but you need to stay here in case they fire the bullets they used the last time, I will try to get straight to the leader so I can prevent that, but still, you need to stay here, I don't know what could happen if he hits you, last time he managed to make me take damage, a little, but I took damage, if he… if he touches you in that state of his…..I better not know-

She sighed, but agreed, she knew that he did not said the last statement because he believed she was weak, he was afraid of she getting hurt, as she looked to the sky, she hugged him from behind.

-You better do it fast and return okay, because if not, Im going to tear you apart-

A small laugh was produced by Saitama, she let go and he prepared to jump at the ship.

-You know I love you, right?-

She was used to hear him say that, but still, after all those years, she still blushed at those words

-Yeah, yeah, I know, now go before they see us-

He laughed, and then jumped to the center of the ship, the next thing she saw was a huge explosion on the ship.

-You better return…-

Those words echoed in his mind, he stroke in the right place, the impact took Geryuganshoop with the pieces of the ship, killing him instantly, he then landed infront of Boros, the subject in question, was surprised at the being that had entered his ship, he didn't even passed through the ship, and he destroyed it?, damn, he must be a very powerfull opponent.

Saitama stood still for a moment, should he finish him with a serious punch and end it all?, or should he listen to the side of him that was screaming at him that he should have some fun?, the intern conflict felt like ages for the bald hero, his subconscious reminded him that he had achieved something far more gratificant than a good fight, and reminded him the last thing that caused his wish to have fun, but the other side of him, the sad part of him that still felt dead for everything, told him, that even if he threw a serious punch to the alien, the city was destroyed already, and Tatsumaki would probably get them all out of there if necessary, so he gave himself the permission to enjoy himself.

Boros hadn't even stood up when he was touched by a punch that threw him straight to the other side of the ship, he had lost one arm, his thoughts where disordered, how was it possible?, he didn't saw when the man attacked him, Saitama then appeared infront of him, with a serious look on his face, Boros quickly kicked him on the stomach with all his force, sending the man back to the main room, he then jumped behind him and started a punch exchange, Boros could feel that the being infront of him was containing himself, yet, he was still fighting with feeling and respect for his opponent, he liked that, he then striked Saitama with all the force he could, sending him to a column, he then grabbed him and threw him to the other side of the chamber, Saitama regained his balance and started running towards the ceiling, Boros paired up with him and started another punch exchange, they where thrown to the sky, and a huge explosion could be seen on the place where they battled

As much as Tatsumaki had matured, she still considered the majority of the S-Class heroes a bunch of useless selfish idiots, specially selfish idiots since all of them where in S-class for a reason, that being they powers, so they where not useless after all, she was just hovering over them, as they fought the brown alien, Metal bat had already managed to find his weakness, and they where exploding it, even when Silver fang had been thrown away he was still fighting like if nothing had happened, Silver fang was one of the few heroes she truly respected, aside from Blast and Saitama of course, and another buch of them, Genos was in a higher regard for her, he had been important on the past, and in some sense, she survived thanks to him, if he had not intervened at the right time, Saitama wouldn't have found his way to her and by consecuence, se would be dead, but aside of those thinkings, the heroes where doing well with the monster, even with Bang's apparent knockout, and the monster quickly regenerating again, they where doing good, she was lost on her thoughts when she saw the monster dissolve in the air.

-That was the last one of them!-

Said bang with a victory smile

-But we still need to take care of the enemy above our heads-

Metal bat interwined

-Where is Caped Baldy?-

Tanktop master and Puri Puri prisioner asked, Tatsumaki glanced at them

-He is fighting on the ship, the huge explosion that was heard a moment ago was of his making-

All of the heroes looked at her like if expecting something, with inquiring looks

-Why didn't he waited for us to go up with him?, we could finish the boss in an instant like we did with this one-

Tatsumaki scowled at Metal Bat, he wanted to answer him that it was because he was way more powerful than all of them combined, but she couldn't, she was going to elaborate an insult about him to scape the question when they where interrupted by Kid emperor.

-I would not recommend that, not with the actual situation up here-

They all turned to see the holographic screen in front of them, kid emperor and Genos where on the call

-I am getting huge energy readings here, Genos's sensors just confirmed them, and he is also using his eyes to show me what is going on here, and you are going to want to see this, this is absolutely crazy-

He then changed to a new screen, where the readings where showed, none of the S-class where familiar with those graphics, but the high peaks on the chart told them what they where supposed to

-But this doesn't tell us anything, what are you seeing that is so impressive?-

Metal bat interrupted Emperor

-Ugh, as unpolite as ever Metal bat, see it for yourself-

The screen then changed to a slow motion recording, where Saitama could be seen fighting Boros, the video was live, and it was the exact same moment where Boros Turned white and striked Saitama with a huge blow right in his chest, he was then sent flying to nowhere.

Tatsumaki's heart suddenly stopped, even with the knowledge that he was going to survive that, it was still scary to her to see how he was always sent flying like a ragdoll everytime he fought something that remotely scratched his shoe, he felt like if someone was squishing her heart, and maybe her face reflected it, because the next thing she knew was that Puri Puri was grabbing her hand

-Hey, Tatsumaki dear, are you alright?-

She was pulled out of her trance by the hero, she quickly recomposed and grabbed everyone with her powers.

-Yeah, Im alright, now lets go to the top of the building to see if we can helpt that idiot-

She then was blasted to the top, where Kid emperor and Genos where watching the fight.

-This is incredible, the power they are liberating is enormous, if you had fought that thing you would be dead by now-

Said emperor

-I don't think so, that did not really seemed to be very though he is going to get finished-

Metal bat said, Tatsumaki quickly responded, keeping her act was one thing, but permiting insults and trating Saitama like someone inferior was another, he had no idea of how Saitama was treated until 3 days ago, with the meteor incident, she wasn't going to let anyone talk of him like that, not even an S-class

-Well, at least he is tougher than you, he single punched a meteor that not even Metal knight's weaponry wasn't able to take out, so keep your mouth shut idiot-

Metal bat looked couriously at her

-A meteor is one thing, a Sayayin like alien is another, how are you so sure he is going to survive-

Tatsumaki dismissed him with a look

-It is just intuition-

A moment later Saitama was thrown to the moon, like if giving the reason to Metal bat, the whole S-class awaited for the dust to clear, only to see Boros breathing, like if he had done a huge affort on something, he then looked at them

-See? I told ya that he wasn't going to last much!-

Tatsumaki ignored him, he knew he was alive, this was one of his favourite stories to tell her, the story of him on the moon and the lunar rock he lost, although she had always found it amusing, what made her remember that story was that it was also…her favourite story to hear, aside of when she and Saitama played her song for her or made her hotpot, she washed away the last thoughts, she had to maintain a professional posture and her past self attitude, it was not time for memories, she then noticed an object approaching at an unbelievable speed from above and landed just in time before Boros lauched himself to them, making him turn his head, to see Saitama stand up from his landing pose.

-OH MY GOD-

Said child emperor like if he did not believed what he just saw

-Impressive, he came back from the moon!-

Darkshine exclaimed

Tatsumaki glanced at the floor and interwined both of her hands, as she quietly whispered

-Yeah, of course he is impressive….-

And Saitama and boros engaged once again

Saitama threw a consecutive normal punches series to Boros, who was quickly obliterated and turned into pieces, he then quickly regenerated and glanced at Saitama

-ILL DEFEAT YOU, NO MATTER THE COST, YOU AND ALL THIS PLANET ARE GOING STRAIGHT DOWN TO HELL-

He turned black and prepared his final attack

-COLLAPSING STAR ROARING CANNON-

Saitama already knew the conclusion, so he prepared to enjoy his last moments of fun

-Serious series, Serious punch-

He said as he threw his fist to the energy blast.

Not a second before, the beam was splited by half by Saitama's punch the impact of the punch could be heard to the other side of the planet.

After the dust settled, Boros was on the floor, like if he had been burnt with a flamethrower, only his torso was left of him, and he wasn't regenerating, Saitama approached at him.

-Did I lose?-

Boros asked, Saitama sighed, the first time, it had been like any day, but now, he respected Boros more, not only he had endured a fiercer battle, since he was trying to have the most fun possible, but also managed to do the same things as he did to him the last time, with some variations, seeing him like this kind of made him feel sad, even though he knew he had to kill him.

-You are very strong Boros, I would have liked to have a battle that was equal for both, thank you, I had fun, and I also hope that I had fullfiled you own desire for a good battle-

If Boro's eye was still there, he would have widened in disbelief, he never told his name to this man, not even a word about the prophesy, yet, even with that, he sensed no pity or disappointment from his voice, only a pure and deep respect. He chuckled.

-Indeed you did, but the prophecy was not true, you where to strong-

He coughed, and Saitama chuckled as he kneeled beside his opponent

-Before I die, I want to know your name, What is it?-

Saitama grabbed his hand and gave him a handshake

-Saitama-

Boros coughed again, and elaborated his last words

-Thank you Saitama-

The core of the ship broke, and Boros released his last breath.

Tatsumaki was removing debris from the fallen ship, she was just cleaning, in order to keep her act, but deep down her, she was struggling to control herself to make a hole on the ship, a moment later, she heard a familiar sound, a the walls of the ship where removed by Saitama, who exited the ship like if it was anything, his cape was destroyed, part of his suit was destroyed and dirty, a mixture of emotions crawled to her face, specially anger, worrying and joy, making her face to make a fun expression. Saitama started laughing at her face, wich only managed to annoy Tatsumaki more.

-HAHAHA, TATS, YOUR FACE, IT WAS SO FUNNY HAHAHA-

He grabbed his stomach to contain his laugh, until he felt a strong slap on his face, wich made him crash with the floor, after years of being together, Tatsumaki had developed a technique to slap and punch him in case he annoyed her, even if it did not damaged him, she knew that it gave him the message she wanted for him to receive, Saitama stood up, rubbing his cheek, he wasn't in pain, but still liked to act like if he was.

-Hey! What was that for?-

Saitama said with indignation, not a moment latter, Tatsumaki was infront of him shouting.

-That was for making me worry you enormous idiot!, do you have any idea of how I felt when that punk threw yo to the moon?-

She did not gave Saitama time to answer, because she quickly kissed him, it was kiss that carried her worry and love.

-And that was for keeping your promise and coming back-

Saitama smiled happily as he embraced her.

-You know I keep my promises, I was going to return anyway, you are my anchor-

They keep the hug for some more until they heard Genos shouting, and he felt Tatsumaki get tense, he knew what was coming, and he pleaded to the skies That Genos please wasnt turned into abstract art.
