Age 1991
Max jumped back just in time as Hero crashed into the ground in front of him.
The teens foot stabbed into the ground cracking it around them sending up several jagged rocks that he smacked towards Max. The boy ducked down avoiding the rocky spikes.
Hero's body was tense and he had some more muscles on him. This was because he was using his compression ability on his entire body allowing him to increase his strength and defense but making it hard to move.
Max let out a loud yell as he punched forward slamming his fist into Hero's chest. He let out a yell of pain though as it felt like punching a rock.
'I forgot how hard he is, in that mode.' Max thought jumping back and clutching his hand. 'Thankfully he can't hold it for long.'
As if on cue Hero breathed out as his muscles stopped being compressed and he uncompressed getting less fit and slightly less muscular but being able to move normally again.
