This is city 83! A huge monster with poison skill has attacked. Many citizens became paralyzed due it's sting ! Requesting back up immediately! Monster level is five out of ten!
"I'll take the mission."
As the citizens of the city scatter and run away as ants a, huge monster took them down one by one.
A mutated monster as big as a building is the threat, it has legs of a bird, dark black fur, each one of its teeth is as sharp as thousands of knives, its claws are like a bear, nut even bigger to match it's massive size. But what's more threatening is its tail, a scorpion-like tail which allows it to paralyze any creature with a single sting.
The local forces were trying to protect the remaining citizens, but even when protected from the monster's sting inside tanks or helicopters it was useless.
The monsters growls and raises a tank ready to eat it whole, the soldiers try whatever they can to escape the situation but it was in vain.
As things go dark a flaming creature interrupts to save the situation, with a flaming kick the monster falls down releasing the tank.
"Sorry I'm late"Twenty years old Jack stands straight staring into the monster's red eyes,"You go back ! I'll handle this !". and with those words the city go silent. Not a single citizen or a soldier were left. Only Jack and his monsterous opponent.
The monster shows its claws as if giving Jack a warning to surrender or die.
"Nice knives lemme show you mine" Jack takes out two short swords, holding one in each arm he rushes at the monster.
His reckless rush gets countered by a series of wild scratches, Jack didn't expect that a monster of such size is fast.
He dodges at the final moment, he looks back at the building that was hit, it was reduced to rubble my the powerful attack.
"For a Thing that huge to be so fast.. no wonder it's level five.."Jack dodges another heavy attack,"It might be fast but I'm faster !"he starts a series of fast attacks combined with burning fire in order to do more damage.
Three years has passed since the arena events and Jack spent them training. After he finished high school he decided to go for the career of a hero, D,Jade and basically half of the people from the arena have decided to join.
The rest returned happily to Their family's after they healed by the help of Ghost K. Who also works in the organisation as both a scientist and a hero.
Through the years that passed Jack has mastered his magic, flame became a part of him.
Not only did he improve magically, but also he became more powerful physically.
The monster hits Jack with a devastating kick, though Jack stops the strike with both arms then throws the monster at a building.
He got a lot of scratches during the battle, he panted and checked himself, his clothes were torn off and one of his blades broke,"Good thing I am not wearing my favorite jacket" he takes off his shred off clothes showing his built muscular body it was hard to believe it's the same kid that used to get bullied some years ago.
Though the more he's hurt the more powerful he becomes, he loves the adrenaline rush of fights. The near death situations. But most of all he loved seeing the citizens go back to their city safely once the threat is neutralized.
Jack went to the building to check if the monster is dead.
He gets startled seeing the monster is still alive even when it received massive damage, having the element of surprise the monster throws Jack in the air with a kick then slams him back the ground with a punch.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
Jack is barely standing but his powers are raging inside, he takes a stance then thrusts at the monster punching it right in the face with a powerful flaming punch.
Both sides are wounded greatly and exhausted.
Jack walks slowly to finish off the monster with fire,but as he reached out his right arm gets stung and he freezes in place.
The monster laughs and then walks towards he stored his meals the captured humans, it wanted to leave Jack for the last.
Turning back to its opponent is the biggest mistake. Jack took a stance then he released all the energy he could through his right arm, he pushed as much as energy possible, the barrage of flames wasn't random, it turned to a giant wolf out of fire and dived at the monster it kept going slamming the monster into two buildings finishing it off then disappearing.
Jack is panting, the flesh have melted off his artificial right arm due to the power of the blow,"haha..haha.. didn't expect a metal arm did you ?"he puts the paralyzed humans in a safe place and leaves the scene.
"FIVE BUILDINGS !" The boss yells.
"Two of them is the monster's doing"Jack says defending himself.
"You mean you did more damage than the monster ?! That's typical of you. Always over doing things. I wouldn't be surprised if a whole city was destroyed by your hands !".
"But most of the citizens are safe now, you see I don't care about what you say. As long as the people were safe I'm satisfied !"and so Jack left.
"Maybe he should get a partner..a defensive one so they will reduce his damage"the boss sits down and checks the list of heroes available.
Jack slowly walks over to the medical department, he chuckles seeing many people hurt but they were also laughing and telling stories about how they got hurt,"As always".
He takes a seat and waits for his turn, he sees a nurse walking by and then says,"Hey hottie, are ya free tonight ?"he asks in a flirty tone.
Jade turns at him, her face is bright red and her metal hands clenched as a fist,"I'm not but my fists are !"she punches Jack in the stomach knocking him to the ground.
"Jade ! Not again !"Ghost huffs,"we two have been put here temporarily so we can help out the injured not increase their suffering.."Ghost sighs.
"Sorry Ghost.."Jade helps Jack up,"it's you ?!"she throws him back down.
"Nice to see you too Jade"Jack laughs and sits again by himself.
Jade shakes her head and rolls her eyes then goes to get some bandages, "You got hurt again didn't you ? When will you ever be careful". She says hating to see Jack in pain.
"What are you doing here ?"Jack asks trying to dodge the question.
"Well I have some experience in medicals and since the entire medical team got hurt yesterday they needed all medics available" Jade smiles sweetly.
"Oh really ? Try not to kill anyone then"Jacks says then relaxes, his top got shred off during the battle.
Jade both flustered and angry ties the bandages fiercely around Jack's wounds.
"Ow ow ! Okay sorry sorry !"he coughs out and groans from the pain.
Jade let's go and smiles innocently, "Here you go ! Try not to get hurt again !".
Jack smiles seeing her walk away,"She's so beautiful"he whispers to himself.
D teleports right in front of Jack,"My brother defensive mode was alerted so stay away from my sister"he teleports Jack away. Ghost has upgraded his device so he can also teleport other people and objects.
Jack goes to his room to get rest for today. It wasn't his first monster, he has finished off two other monsters and deserved to get a rest,"So..this is my life..huh ? Defeating monsters.. Getting hurt and resting to heal..Good thing I heal fast. Probably by Tomorrow the wounds would be gone."he smiles and goes to sleep, even though his life was thrilling he gets a little bored some times.
Cody was in a field meditating, he was trying to regain his previous form.
He filled his mind with happy thoughts about the future things he can do.
But every time he is thinking of the bright future the darkness of the past drags him back.
"I can do this.."He slowly starts reforming.
In his mind springs our messages and voices yelling "Killer ! Criminal ! You're a monster !". He remembers those he killed before when his plan was to destroy humanity.
And he goes back to being a flower, and in the field of flowers he hides himself and cries, he cries miserably then yells as loud as he can,"I'LL NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF !!!".

(note: during this story you'll see talk about hero and threat ranking
heroes are distributed into four tiers. tier-1 is the lowest while tier-4 is the highest.
while monsters have a numerical value on a scale from one to ten. it indicates survival chance.
the lower number indicates a lower survival chance.
(For instance a monster of level 2 is way more dangerous than level 5)
