Hero, Villain God 47
(Prev) (Next) (First)
*Grian's pov*
You run back to your apartment, you do not appreciate having to do this at all. You had a whole thing pre-planned and they ruined it for you!
Creating an outfit is not the hard part, you can do that pretty easily with the snap of a finger but no matter how oblivuous Scar might be he's still definitely going to question it were you to arrive with an outfit that looks professionally made. You don't think you could justify it without being called out...
...So of course you have to also make it look homemade, like it was made with stuff you had around the apartment in half an hour, what an un-cute start to your sidekick career.
You settle on a pink and blue hoodie and a mask, not the best outfit but you did what you had to to make it look legit... On theme but not outlandish enough to be questioned. And if it is questioned... you'll deal with that later when it becomes a problem.
...And with that you are just in time to pick Hotguy up and make it to Las Nevadas before the commotion ends.
"Cuteguy? Is that?"
"Yep, not my ...first choice but it will have to do... So how do I look?"
"You look like a vigilante when, dressed like that"
"That's hardly my fault Hotguy."
"... Yeah, I know"
...
"You didn't answer, how do I look?"
"Great! I mean, not that you usually look not great, you always look good! But it fits you really well- it looks cool I mean hot I mean...good???"
"Are you.. ok?"
"....I'm... I'm just really tired."
... You can relate with that, a lot has happened in the span of a few hours... especially for you.
"Yep"
"... Sooo, are you ready for your debut?"
"Unfortunately"
"Oh C'mon It's going to be... great?"
He can't even manage to sound like he believes it, zero out of ten encouragement here...one out if ten, at least he's trying.
"So...uh...let's go!"
And he just books it! You are having deja-vu to when Flame did this exact same thing when you met him the first time. What's with super powered people and running away randomly?
"I see how it is Hotguy!"
And you spread your wings and fly to him.
As you approach Las Nevadas you hear the sound of sirens, you forgot about those. In hindsight you really should have thought of the attention a group of notorious villains fighting a group of vigilantes in front of a major casino and hotel would garner, oh well.
You look towards Scar, he is... slightly upset, clearly this is bigger then he expected...you wonder just how little the hero association actually knew and how little of that they actually told him. Considering past presedent you don't have very high hopes.
You kinda wish he would just stop being nice, go a bit apeshit even, for once and tear into them...is that how you use the phrase? You heard Martyn say it during the movie marathon and it definitely fits your opinion on the matter...either way, you really wish he would do something like that even though it probably would cause problems it would also be very satisfying to watch...like Legally Blonde! Nice reference, you learned so much today, you are so proud of yourself.
You land down near the chaos, on top of one of the nearby building, Quackity is gone because he must have chosen to be smart about it and left in the confusion... Flame is currently fighting Xonorth, Worm man is dealing with the Doctor, Seraphin with Mot and you are fighting with you...This is going to get confusing real soon.
You hear Hotguy sighs from your left, you turn towards him, his expression is even more unconfortable then it was earlier.
"This isn't..."
"Well, what now Hotguy?"
"I don't... The association sent us after the vigilantes ..."
You can sense the doubt in bis tone, is he having second thoughts.
"But?"
"I don't think we should target them, we should get the villains...?"
"Uh?"
You turn fully to him.
"T-that makes more sense right? Villains...villains are worse then vigilantes so...they should be the one we get??"
"Makes sense to me?"
"So..."
"So we are working with vigilantes? Even though that's the opposite of what the hero association said?"
"..."
He's silent for a few moments, before you can try to spur him on he steps foward.
"I think so... Just this once."
"Sounds good to me, I'm right behind you."
He turns towards you and smiles, then he jumps into the fray and you follow suit immediately after.
It's a bit much controlling three bodies at once but you think you manage it pretty well! Mother Spore dodges a swipe to the left, Poultryman trows an egg at a guy on the right, Cuteguy slashes a tendril in half... All in all you would say you are doing pretty well.
Chaos is your domain and this almost all vs all is refreshing and sweet and invigorating! Still It's different from how you normally view your domain, usually It's more detached, more uninteresting...but being in the middle of it? Extremely confusing and doubly as entertaining. You get lost in the confusion in the best possible way.
Cuteguy jumps on Mot and Mother Spore summon a mushroom wall around herself and Poultryman uses his wings to deck Paroh. You jump from side to side, fly and swipe and dash and at one point you even do a backflip from no reason other then because It sounded fun and you had no reason not do it...
After a while all the fighting does start to meld together as you get more lost in it, to be fair It's been a while since you have been able to do something like this so you end up being very intense about it-
...
And then you hear a strangled cry and everything goes quiet. You turn. All three of you turn towards the noise, the world itself almost wraps in vortex as you hear a scream of someone very familiar.
You turn and you see a tendril, one of Xonorth's... It's passing right trough Scar's heart, you can see his suit darken around the point in which the tendril makes contact with flesh, you look as crimson blood begins to coat the appendage. You turn and for a second it is silence...And then everything stops.
*End of Chapter 9*
