HERO

Introductions pt7: Hiding Steel

The skin around his eyes were sagging, his eyes were becoming soul less, his skin was becoming pale, and his fingers were dripping sand.

What was happening to him, when did this start happening to him, and how could he make it stop.

So far he had saved Beast Boy, Wonder Girl, Hawk, and Dove.

He was currently walking toward a spire made of steel, this from what he could tell could mean 1 out of 2 individuals SuperBoy or SuperGirl.

His brain was melting.

As his reality was becoming like before.

The skies were turning white as the sand below turned black.

Why do you not recognize me

I'm always here.
I've always been here.
Yet you denied me.

I was their when you were at your weakest point.

I was their when you took your first life.

I was their when you first questioned your existence.

I was their Everytime you ever cried.

I was their Everytime you were in pain and suffering.

I was their when father walked out.

I was their when mother collapsed.

I was their with every failed job interview.

I was their when you were rejected by your first true love.

I was always their.

And I will continue to always be here.

So, why won't you recognize me.

Why won't you look at me.

WHY WONT YOU LET ME IN.

As in this moment the voice had begun to haunt him again tearing at his mind that was becoming jelly from the amount of pressure and anxiety crushing his very soul.

"Saitama" said Fake King knocking Saitama back to reality as he turned to him.

"What's happening to me" said Saitama as he looked back at his hands as they returned to normal.

His body had returned to normal, he was left stunned, he couldn't believe it.

"Saitama, are you alright, bro" said Fake King worriedly.

Saitama could only stare as he knew that time was running out, his time was running out, all the pieces were coming together in his head, the spires, the desert, the different conflicts and themes, the baroness of this wasteland.

The book is empty, and it's looking to be written, this entire time Saitama was so focused on just saving the Titans that he had neglected the purpose of why the book is the way it is.

"So you figured it out, huh" said Fake King with a small smirk.

"You lied to me this whole time" said Saitama with a shocked expression.

The truth is the book was never after the Titans, No, this book was after him.

"Of course i was, what predator warns their prey" said Fake King as he began to transform into something else, the sand took the shape of a chess Queen Piece but on top had a mask of wicked laughter.
