42 Fight! 5 It Don't Stop Coming

Ethan wasn't used to cheering for villains, which makes sense, considering his now former occupation.

Yes, former. It seems the life of Madcap, jail buster extraordinaire has come to an end.

Not that he ever actually broke anyone out of any prisons, but he did make a living breaking people out of prison transports to the birdcage.

After all, the birdcage is the kind of prison ...

41 Fight! 4 the Fourth

Watching the chaos unfold around me, I can't help but gape in sheer 𝘢𝘸𝘦, even as I shake from excitement and honestly maybe a little bit of arousal at the same time.

The sight is just so 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵.

Never in my life, have I ever felt so fulfilled as I do right now, watching this display of... 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘤𝘩�...

40 Fight! 3 It Goes On

A/N: Just because I can't remember if I already explained it for those that don't know Worm, the Triumvirate is the group of Heroes that lead the protectorate, being Alexandria, who is superman without the laser's, Legend, who is just the laser's and Eidolon, who is whatever he feels like. There was also Hero, but Siberian killed him, also they are all super powerful. Anyway.

39 Fight! 2 Electric Boogaloo

A/N: Made the image in paint to help understand everything going on lol

---

Fighting my way through the untrained gangsters wasn't particularly challenging except for the sheer number of them.

Even with the troopers behind me providing supporting fire with rubber bullets, I could hardly make any headway in approaching Melty. All I have to do is take her out of the fight and th...

38 Fight!

"Quickly, before the Red team shows up, allow me to introduce the players for team Blue!" Fool shouts in a rush before moving the camera to zoom in on the flying capes.

"Up in the air we have Epic and Ashurbanipal! Both fliers but only the latter is a brick while the former shoots laser's! They are basically like Legend and Alexandria if they were less impressive!~" He says before swingin...

37 Interlude: Sarah Livsey

The time is 16:43 on the first day of 2008 and from all across America thousands of people are opening the same website and tuning in to watch the same livestream.

As the clock ticks closer to five in the afternoon, thousands become tens of thousands as the view count continues to skyrocket on the new website known as FoolsNet.

Included among the number of people who followed the li...

36 Interlude Darnell Jackson

Around a circular table sits six people. Five men and one woman, all with the same black skin as everyone else in their gang.

The room itself is heavy with such tension that it feels as if it could be cut with a knife.

Understandable, considering the reason for this gathering.

"I assume you've all seen the video?" Eraser begins, speaking about what is on all of our minds.

35 Interlude: Yumiko Jamesu (<-joke)

"How certain exactly are you that Tear is the cannibal from October?" Director Noah says from his seat behind his large desk.

It's only the two of us in the room right now, as I only give my reports to the Director directly.

The perks of formally working in a counter intelligence unit I suppose, not that anyone outside of this room actually knows anything about me.

See, I've a...

34 Interesting Conversation 2 Electric Boogaloo

After spending some time sitting around, bored out of my mind, the door to my cell eventually whirred open after maybe an hour to show yet another faceless PRT trooper pair.

"Please follow us." One of them says, motioning for me to follow, which I do, not bothering with saying anything with such a lacklustre audience.

A minute later and I am sitting in a slightly larger room with a ...

33 Sun Tzu is Wise

"I..."

The tension in the room is palpable as the Heroes await my grand proclamation.

"Surrender!~" I chirp, completely ruining the mood of the room as my arms keep raising until they are in the classic surrendering pose, while my tails dissipate, returning to my body.

Silence befalls the room for a moment, only broken by the man I recognise as Epic's deadpan voice.

"......

32 It Begins 2 Electric Boogaloo

After getting his location from Fool, it wasn't all that difficult to capture Shade.

After all, even though he gets stronger by absorbing the darkness around him, he can only peak at about as strong as Siegfried and I'd say that's about as strong as I am, except I have twice as many limbs, so it wasn't much of a struggle.

I didn't really know where to put him, so I just used one of ...

31 Interlude: Jinx

Life had been pretty shitty all round for the man formally known as Lachlan.

Born to a happy middle class family of immigrants, his life was set up to be pretty good right from the start.

That was until he turned six and contracted some disease that he was never told the name of.

Luckily there 𝘸𝘢𝘴 a known cure for it, unfortunately however, the treatment was incredibl...

30 prep

After finally getting sweet sweet vengeance, I went home and rested for a day, just chilling with mini James as he tried and failed to explain the science behind his drug to me.

At some point I got a call from Jinx, or Fool, as he decided to name himself, which 𝘪𝘴 admittedly a fitting name for him, considering his power.

Overall, I'd say he sounded much more chipper than when ...

29 Interlude: Noah Balvan

If you'd asked Noah what it was like to be a PRT director a month ago, he would have said how the work was tough but rewarding and that compared to the other directors, he has it easy.

That would have been the case one month ago.

Now however, is a completely different story.

It's the middle of the night on christmas day, and while Noah 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 be spending what...

28 Happy Xmas

Sitting by myself on a rooftop that sits between Red Branch and Street Saints' territory, I bob my head along with the music I have playing quietly from my phone as I wait for the nights entertainment to show itself.

"So this is christmas~" I hum to myself along with the song, kicking my legs back and forth over the edge of the roof.

I'm not too worried about being noticed, since ot...

27 Finally an info dump

After leaving Helter Skelter, I did a quick lap of where Jinx said Equaliser will be tomorrow and then went home to do something I loathe.

To make a plan.

Now, I'm generally not a fan of thinking too hard on things, but I am willing to make an exception this one time.

Besides, it might actually be fun to do, so long as I only do it the once.

Like experimenting, you won't...

no chappy today :(

yo, as the above says, no chapter today, cuz I'm still super tired and feel like shit, but I'll do a double tomorrow to make up for it so dw :>

26 I was so fucking tired writing this. I haven't slept in like 24+ hours

Only after taking a minute to calm my laughter down, during which Jinx simply stared dispassionately at me, can we begin proper discussion.

"So," He starts with a tired drawl, "what brings you here with such fervour to ignore my closed sign, mystery lady."

I smile beneath my simple mask at his tone, but since I want to get this part over with quickly, I give a simple and blunt answe...

25 Helter Skelter

Sitting down, I cross my legs and focus on the small of my back, where my tails come from.

Closing my eyes, I try to will forth my tails as slowly as possible, trying to get a feel for the process, instead of just letting it happen naturally.

I feel the way they pierce through my skin and slowly bubble to the surface, only to rush forward like drawing air through a straw and coalesc...

24 Definitely a good influence

After getting some food inside of little James we were finally done with the essentials, which basically just means that now we can just shop for whatever we want.

I insisted we do some more clothes shopping first, because other than the jacket and winterwear, little James doesn't actually have any clothes other than what he was wearing when I found him.

"Do you particularly care wh...

23 A good influence

After making it back to the city, the first thing I did was check my flat, only to find that it is already up for rent again, which made me really wonder how long I'd been gone.

Luckily for me, I had the foresight to keep my bug out bag outside of the house, hidden under a disused air conditioner on top of a building.

Which is nice, because at least I have most of my money and some ...

22 ...I, the Author, sincerely did not see this coming.

After devouring Jason, I had thought that I would be satisfied, and don't get me wrong, it was certainly satisfying.

But id didn't leave me feeling full like I had expected it to.

He was a regenerator after all. I probably ate around three Jason's worth of Jason, and he's already a pretty bit guy.

But even then, it simply isn't enough.

However, I thought I found a soluti...

21 They may take our Lives! But they will never, take our FREEDOM!

Opening the door to my theatre, I have to fight down the feeling of 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 that wells up.

No matter how much fun it is, now is not the time, not with the Heroes closing in.

It's unfortunate really, I was having so much fun with little Tear too.

Well, once we get set up somewhere else the fun can continue.

For now, all I really need to do...

20 More Torture and Delusion

At some point, he put a blindfold on me.

The lacking sense just made everything else hurt more.

Since the start, Jason told me to count backwards from one thousand, out loud, in increments of seven.

I didn't understand why at first, then I realised he was trying to keep me as sane as possible.

"O-one hu-dred... t-twenty.. five."

So that I'd be aware of every single...

19 Literally Just 2k Words of Torture

A/N: WARNING! The title isn't an exaggeration, this entire chapter is literally all torture. This is where I earn that Tokyo Ghoul tag, so if you're squeamish, then maybe just skip the chap, personally, I think it's fine, but I'm the one writing it, so that probably just says more about me :p Enjoy!

18 Coffee 2 Electric Boogaloo

"-I 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘳 you are cheating somehow, no way you get a royal flush right after a four of a kind. It's total bullshit. I know it. You know it. He knows it."

I blatantly ignore James' complaining as I sweep up the poker chips on the table.

I found these when I was shopping the other day, I don't know why but it surprised me, like I had this idea in my head that only casin...

17 Interlude: Multi

"-yeah yeah, just knock when it's time for my patrol, I want a nap."

Closing the door to my room in the wards section of the PRT building, I take four steps forward before collapsing in a boneless heap onto my bed.

I don't know how long I just lied there, my mind blank and my open eyes unseeing, but eventually I got the urge to move, and sat up on the middle of the bed, crossing my ...

16 Coffee

Well, yesterday was both fun and also really sucked.

For one, I got my ass kicked again, which sucks, and I have since decided that rather than just exercising, I should try learning how to actually fight and to that end I have started paying for a boxing coach.

It's slightly annoying having to hide my actual strength from him, but it is also good training for not putting too much s...

15 Interlude: Aika Hasson

Sitting here, surrounded by so many Heroes and even Director Balvan, I can't help but feel out of place.

Because Despite what Ethan and Luke would say, I really don't think I'm fit to be Heroes like they are.

I mean, look at Ethan, he is compared to 𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘥 himself and even if Luke isn't that good with his powers as Lost, he still manages to make the people around h...

14 :c

𝘉𝘢𝘯𝘨!

The sound, like a thundercrack, is sudden and unexpected.

However, despite it's incredible volume, the sound is gone as soon as it comes, no ringing in the head, no time to so much as flinch.

At the same time, everything in front of me flickers slightly, like the world itself is somehow lagging.

Our Mexican standoff comes to an abrupt end as we look dow...
