Enforcers - Chapter 180
Age ???
Location ???
“Man… Things really went and got bad huh?” Hero Otoko asked looking around with wide eyes. “Four Months was all it took to be forgotten huh?” He ran his hand through his black messy hair as his silver eyes gazed around with a confused look.
He didn’t really know where he was.
It was…
Well he didn’t really know what it was.
All around him was a void. Pure whiteness. It seemed to simply stretch on for miles, and miles, getting longer and longer.
“Things really went in the deep end there huh…”
“You have no idea.”
“What?” Hero felt a small spark hit him for a moment. He blinked and when he opened his eyes he found himself standing in what seemed to be a large red void… An ocean of red liquid. Not blood though. Something else. “Oh boy… Not this place again…”
“Relax. This isn’t what you’re thinking.”
Hero turned finding someone had joined him where ever it was that he found himself at. In front of him now was a large brown fountain spewing the red liquid out in large waves. He also saw her… He didn’t know who she was, but she was pretty. A young woman around the age of twenty something with short black hair, and light black eyes. She had a strange reddish brown skin and wore a dress with what looked like a ‘D’ Shaped scar on her. She had a small smile on her face as she stared at him.
“My. You’re very different from my Hero. And what’s with the weird Seraphins of this universe?”
“What?” Hero asked blinking a few times. “Uh who are you? And where am I? I’m kind of lost… Like mega lost… Wasn’t I being burnt alive? And there was some guy called God or something?”
She let out a soft giggle as she c.o.c.ked her head to the side. “Oh I’m sorry. I guess that doesn’t make much sense huh? Well… Let’s see… You can call me Nightmare.”
“That’s an edgy name!”
“There’s already someone called Dream with this Crest okay!” Night let out a huff as she folded her arms. “Lay off my back you big jerk.”
“You still haven’t answered my question.” Hero pointed out. “I mean where are we?”
Night let out a small sigh before looking back up at him. “It’s kind of complicated. You see… You don’t exist.”
“What…”
“Well… Let’s see…” She hummed as she scratched at her chin. “How do I put this… Do… Do you know who Row Law is?”
“What a dumb name.”
“I’ll take that as No?”
“Yeah no clue.”
Night let out a sigh as she hummed once more. She scratched her head trying to explain it. “So… Basically… Some stuff happened and this universe got abandoned… Big time… Basically you were ditched for a better universe. One with weird powers.”
“Weirder than balloon powers?”
“The you from that universe has a magic right arm that controls heat, and sound, and Ken’s a Seraphin who has Bestia Macht powers.”
“That sounds badass!”
“Oh yeah it’s really cool.” Night shook her head for a second. “Just look. Basically there is this guy called the Founder I guess? And he ditched and left your universe. The past few months your universe has been sort of Glitched… I guess? Like all messed up and broken. Hence why things went bad. Honestly you weren’t suppose to die to that fire guy. In fact that wasn’t suppose to happen at all. It got all messed up and broken. And when the Founder left God wanted to basically restart and reboot the universe if that makes any sense?”
“I guess I kind of get it.”
“No you don’t.”
“You’re right. So why’d this Founder guy leave?” Hero asked. He moved over taking a seat next to the girl as he looked up to the white void that was the sky.
“Honestly I’m not to sure. Maybe he just didn’t like where this was going. This was one of his first worlds you see. Maybe the Squid man would take it over. Maybe he just felt it was bad and he should get out now while he still can? Who knows why. All I know is he moved to a world with a new Equation, and a new story. EZBL.”
“EZBL?”
“Equation Zero Battle Line.”
“What a dumb name…”
“That’s actually my world…” The girl sighed leaning back. “Oh and about your question where we are. We’re in a place called the Void. This place exist outside of space and time. I’m actually dead in my world, but as I died, I used this bad boy to escape here, my soul coursing through the entire multiverse.” As she spoke she traced her finger to the ‘D’ shaped Scar on her chest. “That was where I found you. The first Hero. Outside of the multiverse like me… Your universe mostly broken apart. You inspired a lot you know…”
“I did?”
The girl gave a small nod as Hero turned and saw an image of something. The first was of some girl with long silver hair, and silver eyes, the second was of a boy his age, who looked almost exactly like him, but had snow white hair, and ruby red eyes, and the third was a dog for some reason. The image faded as the woman leaned back on the fountain.
“Those guys were called Hero just so you know. They’re not really you though.” Night shrugged. “It’s kind of like this. You’re from Enforcers. And they’re from Equation Zero Battle Line. Think of it like a coin. There are hundreds of universe but each universe also has someone on the other side of it, if that makes sense. Me and you right now are on the edge of that coin. Not in Enforcers, or EZBL, but rather in the Void. EZBL is devouring your universe though, to keep itself up.”
“Oh… I’m guessing that’s not good huh?”
“No… It’s very bad.”
“Darn…”
Night let out a small giggle as she threw her arms behind her head. “Bottom line little dude. I don’t think what happened to you is very fair. I think you deserve a chance to live.”
“You do?”
“Yeah… I’m a member of this group called the Dragon Clan in EZBL, or rather I was, but they’ve already replaced me by now, and well… To put it simply I’ve done a lot of bad things. I’ve hurt a lot of people. And as I died… It occurred to me how I didn’t do anything at all with my life. And I never really wanted to do anything with my death so I escaped. There I was floating around when I saw your world. All weird and wrong. Whoever made your story clearly was an amateur. And seeing him just throw your universe away like that and move towards mine… I didn’t really like it. So I pulled you out of the nothingness God placed you in.”
“Oh?” Hero frowned slightly but gave a small smile. “Thanks I guess?”
“Hero… I can save you.”
“What?”
Night stood up and held her hand towards him. “I don’t know what’ll happen to your world. It’s weird, and filled with so many glitches. It’s all broken, and it would be a while before it got fixed. But… I can save you. I still have a small amount of power. Every day I get weaker though. Pretty soon this soul of mine will break and I’ll be scattered across the multiverse never to be seen again. But while I still have some energy. I can take you to EZBL. I can throw you into the world. You can do whatever you want there. Go where ever you want. You can even try and become an Enforcer for them, as they also have the Enforcers.”
Hero hummed for a moment as a small frown crossed onto his face. He seemed to consider it for a moment. “No thanks…”
“What?”
Hero smiled c.o.c.king his head to the side. “I’m Hero Otoko. Like the something strongest person alive! A Seraphin. Rather than send me off to some universe. Do me a favor. Send me back to my home world. I have a world to save. That fire bastard is going down!” Hero announced punching his open hand as he gave a large smirk.
Night stared at him with a dumbfound look on her face. “You know… If I send you back it won’t change anything right… Sure I can bring you back to just before you died I guess… And undo God’s changes… But the past… That all still happened. The whole cl.u.s.ter of mistakes that went on leading up to that moment won’t change… It’ll still be a bad story even past that point you know.”
“Than in that case.” Hero gave another smile c.o.c.king his head to the side. I’ll just have to do my best to make the next part of the story so much better won’t I.”
‘I’m Hero Otoko! A Seraphin! If I can’t win I’ll just become a version of myself that can!’
‘I’m Hero Law, and I’ll become a hero of justice. A Superhero!’
“Why…” Night asked. “Why is it that you’re both like this…” She shook her head but gave a small smile. “You’re world is really messed up you know… It’d be so much cleaner just to go to EZBL.”
“I know. So I’ll just work twice as hard to fix it.”
Night let out a small giggle. “Okay than… Alright Hero Otoko… I’ll fulfil that wish… I’ll dream that dream.”
“Will I ever see you again?”
“Honestly.” Night gave a small smile as she c.o.c.ked her head to the side. “I don’t know…”
