"We won…" A short, green-haired woman said, she was covered in sores and blood oozed from various parts of her small body.
''WE KILLED PEACEMAN!'' The other people around her yelled along with her, everyone was extremely happy for the big achievement.
They had just faced the most powerful man in human history, so strong that he could be equated with a god. However, the man was completely bloodied with holes around his body while lying motionless on the ground, that event would mean a new era for humanity, the 'reign of peacetime' had come to an end with the death of the hero.
''All thanks to the Omega!'' People pointed to the young man who was looking at his hands covered in blood.
All the other 9 who were on the battlefield gathered around Omega like ants, patting him in encouragement and giving congratulations for what he had just done.
"Y-you're not getting away with this!" Said a boy who had his legs broken, crawling along the floor with his arms towards the 10 people.
"Even if it costs my life, I will kill the 10 monarchs of crime!" He yelled, as he pressed a small button on the glove of his white suit.
A massive explosion occurred and a cloud of dust spread, leaving the battlefield even more troubled than before. However, the young hero's sacrifice was in vain as the 10 criminal monarchs emerged unscathed from a transparent dome formed from the powers of Omega.
"This is the beginning of a new era," Renos said, the woman was too excited and didn't even care about the event of the explosion that took place some seconds ago.
"We'll return to our respective bases, will you come with me Omega?" She asked with a slight tone of seduction towards the young man.
''No, you can go ahead. I have some business to take care of here." The boy replied as he looked at the two bodies on the floor.
"Tch." Renos clicked her tongue.
"Well, whenever you want, I'm available anytime, just contact me." She winked in Omega's direction, as one of the monarchs teleported them all elsewhere, leaving only Omega in the tragic scene.
"What the fuck did I do, Arthur?" Omega asked, giving a few glances at the bodies and others at his hands.
"This sucks." He put a hand to his head. 'New Age or whatever, none of this is good!'
Omega, no, Erick Zauntlet was the greatest villain in the world and also the most hunted man in the entire human history, however even with his infamous fame, the boy always avoided a clash to the death with his archenemy 'Peaceman'.
Over the years, they developed a relationship of frenenemies, in which Erick eventually discovered the identity of Arthur, but didn't use to his advantage, just feigning ignorance.
However, Erick was forced to kill his closest friend and foe, all because of that idiotic war between the 10 criminal monarchs (of which he was the leader, for no reason) and the heroic agency, which was represented by Arthur.
He took one last look at Arthur's body, before stepping closer and puting an odd-looking device taped to the man. Peaceman's body disappeared, but some strange particles were seen floating inside a glass vial of the device.
"Drastic situations require drastic measures." Said Erick.
He feared more than anyone the 'Dark Age' that would be orchestrated and ruled by the villains, Erick was fully aware that it was nothing more than a completely inoperable tyrant type of government.
"Fuck it all!" Erick yelled, as his silhouette was seen disappearing from the massive mountain that had been destroyed in his confrontation with Arthur.
That was the last time people saw Omega.

''Hello dear viewers,'' A man on a television screen spoke, introducing the program that was playing, ''And once again, the banks of countless cities around the world were attacked. In addition to the biggest concern of governments, which is the mass escapes from prisons...''
The television turned off, making a strange little hiss as the screen closed to complete black. The woman watching the news looked to the side, seeing the person responsible for the TV having been turned off.
"I was watching." She said, getting up from the couch she was leaning on.
"The news only says things we already know," The man replied, as he popped a huge donut into his mouth. "After all, we're working on the front lines of this complete chaos."
The two were renowned society heroes, both 2-star A Rank, something that wouldn't be easily found even if you searched around the entire planet. They were Catherine 'Atom' Raviel, and Jonathan 'XLR8' Himan, both high-ranking heroes who were responsible for fighting on the front lines of warfare in today's society.
''Since the disappearance of Peaceman and Omega, the world has become complete chaos,'' Said Catarina
''There is no safe place, not even the pacify city that is managed by the agency is completely safe.''
As if it were something planned, at the same moment the woman said this, an alarm rang around the entire building, while the cell phones of both heroes vibrated at the same moment, showing a message that spoke about the location and the situation that occurred in the place.
[Attack in The Center Of 'Pacify City'!]
[Villains in Place: Unknown]
[Quest Rating: A+ 3 stars]
[Announcement: All available heroes of 2-star B Rank or higher, must head towards the location immediately!]
"We have to go!" Catarina yelled at the man, who hurriedly cleaned off his pants, letting the donut fall to the floor.
"My delicious food!" He spoke, showing a sad expression.
"Recompose yourself, we have to go ASAP!" The woman slapped the man's face, who woke up from his sadness.
"Climb on my back, I'll take you there." He said, leaning back and putting his hands behind his back so that Catarina could hold on to him.
The woman, although embarrassed, did what Jon asked her to do, straddling the boy's back. Jon wasted no time, starting to accelerate at an impressive speed that could easily overtake a sports car.
"We have to go!" Catarina yelled at the man, who hurriedly brushed off his pants, letting the donut fall to the floor.
"My delicious food!" He spoke, showing a sad expression.
"Recompose yourself, we have to go soon!" The woman slapped the man's face, who woke up from his sadness.
"Climb on my back, I'll take you there." He said, leaning back and putting his hands behind his back so that Catarina could hold on to him.
The woman, although embarrassed, did what Jon asked her to do, straddling the boy's back. Jon wasted no time, starting to accelerate at an impressive speed that could easily overtake a sports car.
The two were able to reach the scene in the blink of an eye, however, the situation was even worse than what was said in the notices sent by the agency.
"Holy shit," Jon said, looking at the buildings completely engulfed in fire as people ran around desperately and a few others were already dead.
"I'll save people, and you take care of the bad guys!" Jon spoke to Catarina, as he suddenly disappeared from her sight with a bang.
''XLR8 BEWARE!'' The woman screamed, as this was all a trap, and the villains already knew Jon would try to intervene.
"Fuck!" Jon tried to dodge, but because he had come to a sudden stop as he accelerated at such enormous speed, the man was unable to make any sudden movements.
He was going to die, Jon's memories flashed through his eyes like in those movies where people watch their life memories in life and death situations. The boy closed his eyes, waiting for the impact of the attack of the 3 madmen who had jumped on him, but nothing hit him.
"Did I die?" He asked confused, as in front of him the Peaceman appeared, defending him from the attacks.
''There is no longer any need to fear! I'm back and this time to stay!" The Peaceman yelled to everyone present at the venue.
All people stared in wonder at the scene that unfolded, however Erick who was disguised as the greatest hero in the world squirmed more and more inside.
'Fuck.'
