Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

[Spike shot]

Spike, shot lots of needles of hair at Crab puppets, made by Crab man. Electric Zack is running super fast. It is his specialty after all. He is helping the citizen. With the help of Spike, Soft Hammer is fighting with Stone puppet. He is destroying the Stone puppets with one hit. It is clear, every hit he lands on Stone crab is a heavy attack. He is getting exhausted.

Zoosh

Electric Zack said, "Spike all citizens are saved."

"Good now run."

"Why?"He is astonished

"We can't defeat him. He is S ranked. It will be impossible for us to defeat him but it will be better if you run away."

Seiko comes in and says, "It will be better if we fight together and defeat him"

With a lot of energy, Zack said: "Ya, Right but who are you?"

"I'm a volunteer. Who will help you."

Furiously Spike says "Why have you come here? to die? We need S-ranker. Not a B-ranker. Leave now!!"

His words carried the responsibly of a hero.

"I won't, instead I will help you. Just think I am not here."

Looking at Seiko's eye he understood that it is useless to argue with him.

"Fine but if you die don't blame us."

"I won't die."

Electric Zack whispers "You came that's good. But you can't do anything against him. It is impossible. It's like, you are a child and he is an adult. I can help you to escape."

"You are a teen so as a child, I can make an opening for you to attack."

"I have nothing to say it's your discretion but remember the chance of survival is less than 10%. Prepare for worst."

"Ah...Haha, More heroes more fun" Stone crab smiles. His looks were evil.

Seiko got a sense of evil.

"I, Stone Crab will make you feel regret your life"

Everyone there sensed an evil Aura. He looked like a demon in their vision.

Soft Hammer "T-Thi-This is bad." He is hesitating because of fear.

Stone crab had an evil-smile "Come out my general. Time to have fun. Haha"

Some Stone puppets are summoned. They are bigger and stronger.

Soft Hammer tries to provoke all Stone puppets and it worked. All of them were following him.

Spike understands that he made an opportunity for them to attack Stone Crab. He went all out. Electric Zack runs towards Stone crab. He runs so fast that he could barely be seen.

[Spike Shot]

"AND!!!"

[Giant Spike]

A massive needle is summoned and shot at Stone crab with lots of small needles.

[Pebbles Shot]

Stone crab used it again but this time it is fast and strong. It destroyed the massive needle like it is nothing.

While he was attacking, Electric Zack appeared out of nowhere and tried to attack.

Soft Hammer noticed that Stone crab has set up a trap. He made a sharp thing out of his skin. Soft Hammer Didn't know what it is but he understood that it is meant to hurt him.

PisHhhh

Soft Hammer threw his hammer at the crab, to save him. It touched his sharp part before Electric Zack could land on his attack.

As soon as Soft Hammer's hammer touched the sharp part. It got corroded.

Everyone is shocked.

"Oops.. looks like you found my little secret. I wanted you to dissolve all of you in acid. Too bad, I can't do that. Here is good news for you. You are going to die sooner." He smiled an evil smile.

[Pebbles Shot]

This Time it is faster and more strong.

"Playtime is over"

Electric Zack dodged it very easily. Soft Hammer uses some Stone puppets as a shield. Spike dodged it. Everyone remembered that there is a guy who is a B ranker. It is too late to think about him that's what they thought. But Seiko standstill and none of the pebbles touched him.

Everyone is surprised especially Stone crab.

'I am sure that my pebbles were going to hit him but how did I miss it?'

"You sure are lucky but this time I WILL NOT MISS"

[Pebbles Shot]

The number of pebbles is more than before. Everyone is dodging it. Soft Hammer took the generals all by himself. He is injured. Since he is using the puppets as a shield, he is moving forward with it. Electric Zack couldn't move forward because he is helping Spike to dodge by changing the path of some pebbles. Spike had a hard time to dodge. Electric Zack is also helping Seiko to dodge it.

Stone Crab appeared in front of Soft Hammer all of a sudden.

PAHM!!

BOOM!

Before Soft Hammer could react Stone crab punched him. It created a shock wave, the soil around 1-2 meters were pushed down.

"I haven't even started and this is what happened. A rank hero!? HA, you are nothing but a piece of Sh*t. I-"

A pebble is thrown at him.

A child came out of nowhere and said.

"YOU ARE A Piece of SH*T MONSTER"

"Oh.. A child, Children's are the thing that I hate most, in this world. Guess I have to kill you."

[Pebbles Shot]

This time the pebbles are big.

[Hair Spike]

+

[Hair Shiled]

It Reduced the damage but it is not over. There are more stones. He has no choice but to give all of his defenses to save the child.

Electric Zack understands that it is not enough. So He Stands in front of the child. He becomes a human shield to save the child.

Spike and Zack got a direct hit.

When Spike gave up all of his defense he made a Hair shield for Seiko too. The child is saved and Seiko is unscratched. All 3 of them are unconscious. The last word came from both of the heroes was "RUN"

Stone crab laughs and says "I have just used only a few of my attacks. My armor has no scratch.

I barely got warmed up and you all are dead." While stepping on unconscious Soft Hammer's head, he starts laughing.

In a blink of an eye, Soft Hammer disappeared from his foot and starts to float towards Seiko. Spike is also floating towards him. Electric Zack is near the child.

Seiko is moving towards the kid with the unconscious Spike and Soft Hammer.

He gathers all 3 heroes near the boy.

"Look, child, you need to take care of them until I come" The kid is terrified of what he saw. He starts to cry because of fear.

Seiko smiles and says "You are a good boy, please take care of them. I believe in you. Don't fear I will save you no matter what. You are a hero and a hero doesn't fear. He who overcomes fear and wins is a hero. You are a Hero in my eyes. What you did, what a hero would do."

"Making an escape plan? It's useless. You may be fast but you can't escape from me.",Stone crab said with a smile on his face.

"Now be brave. Don't fear anything keep calm and find the way to overcome. Remember you are a hero"

The boy was so scared that he couldn't open his mouth.

As soon he completes his conversation a pillar of dirt starts to grow. In a few moments, it turns into a half-circle and covered them fully with a hole on the opposite side.

Seiko starts to loosen his suit.
