18 A Great Terror Looms... (2/2)
”What the hell is that?! A villain?! ”
”Who knows, but It's coming for us!”
”G-Guys run for it!”
All 5 of the boys ran to a different direction. They learned this at school.
'If your foe is really strong, and you definitely cannot beat him, running away is always an option, however, If the monster is strong, and you can't outrun it, you need to split your group so that he wouldn't know who to go after. He will be confused.
If you are alone and the monster is big, try to run through some buildings or back alley streets where there isn't much space to move.
'Yeah, I bet that would be a good idead, but It seems to me that it just randomly targeted me because I have a fire quirk. Can't really outrun it either since from what I've seen, it can change shape to adjust to the environment.'
”WHAT OTHER TIPS WERE THERE?!” Blonde haired boy shouted.
'Oh, It's a decent tactic but it's also a risky one, if you don't know the place, you can easily get into a blind alley and you are dead.'
In front of the lone boy, a giant wall appeared.
'Damn it, that's bad. What do I do?!'
”THERE YOU ARE YOU LITTLE BASTARD”
Sludgenator finally caught its prey in the blind alley.
”Where will you run now huh?! You are mine!”
Sludgenator extended his now, giant tentacle towards the boy in order to melt him, but before he could touch him, a giant flame pillar attacked him from behind.
”AH I AM BURNING! WHO ARE YOU!?” asked Sludgenator in pain.
”That doesn't matter. Leo, leave this place immediately! Run past him! Now is your chance!”
”Father!” Leo did what his father told him and slipped by Sludgenators giant body.
”Good boy, now leave!” his father shouted while maintaining the flame output.
”No, I can't just leave you behind! Come with me!” tears appeared on Leo's eyes as he begged his father to reconsider.
”Leo. Someone has to stop him, I am also a hero, I need to do my job properly, even if it costs my life!” his father turned around and put a special phone into Leo's hands.
”Call on this number, and tell them my situation. Request for back up and put the phone somewhere close to me so that heroes could pinpoint my location.” said Leo's father.”
”Okay... Come back safely, dad!”
Leo ran away from the alley.
His father smiled and said, ”Sorry, but that's not likely.”
”IS THIS CHARADE FINALLY OVER?! GOOD, THEN COME, I STILL NEED TO EAT SOMETHING TO BE SATISFIED.”
Numerous tentacles dashed towards the lonely figure of a man.
But he dodged them with ease.
”Sorry to break it to you, But even though I am not a high ranking hero anymore, I am still not that weak.” he said as he grinned at the beast.
”THIS IS WHY I HATE FIRE QUIRKS!!!”
