"What's a pretty girl like you doing in the woods, alone?"

You couldn't help but gasp when you heard an unfamiliar voice beside you, you turned quickly only to see a pile of leaves that were blowing and your messy hair went blowing slightly in the direction that the sudden waft of air had blown. You turned around, looking in all directions to catch sight of a dark and small looking figure that was always moving whenever you thought you had caught it.

The voice sounded male, so you automatically guessed this black figure was a man, but his head was also a dark shade so he wasn't one of the Paradisers. By the time Saitama had arrived from the bushes behind you, the new stranger settled right next to you as he placed his arm around your shoulder to offer Saitama a devious looking smile that didn't look nice at all.

"Don't worry, I'll save you from this.. pesky terrorist." He spoke in a sultry voice whilst being extremely close to your face. You grew hot and blush in embarrassment when this man began to make you very uncomfortable. You could only stare at Saitama who was shocked at the new person who litterally came out of nowhere.

"Aye! Let go of her, do I really look like one of them?!" He growled out in annoyance, staring daggers at the arm that stayed locked onto your shoulder. Saitama held his arms out to put emphasis on his words that he yelled as he stood in a defensive position when thinking about the dangers you get in the middle of because of him and his recklessness.

Sonic only released you for a second as he drew his sword out to thrust it right at Saitama face, but thankfully before it could do any damage, Saitama reached up with an insane amount of speed and held the blade, clenching his hand to snap the sword. Your mouth gaped open at the sight but you quickly took the strangers release to your advantage and rushed straight to Saitama's side where he got you behind him and held out his arm as if to keep you from harms way, never taking his eyes off of this man in the process.

The man showed a look of surprise when his sword was broken and you took this opportunity to look at his attire; he was basically a modern day Ninja which consisted of black and purple clothing. The ninja's eyes slowly turned to you and he actually scoffed in disbelief when he noticed how Saitama looked so protective over you, "You're actually with this guy! He's one of the Paradisers."

"Hey! Look at me-"

"All I need for confirmation is to look at that shiny, bald head." He spoke carelessly while leaning his weight on one leg, crossing his arms and narrowing his cold eyes on Saitama's head. You almost laughed at his blunt statement but covered your smile by turning your head away from the two males who kept their attention only on each other.

The ninja only smiled at Saitama's seething anger and observed him when he quickly yelled out, "No! Look at me, Me!"

"I don't know you." He spoke cooly in an annoyed voice. Saitama's faced turned dark, bending his head downwards as he pouted in response when he only let out an, "Oh.."

The ninja disappeared again, you literally groaned when you realised he was doing the same thing as before but you were partially surprised when Saitama turned his head to see exactly where the ninja was coming from and where he was shifting to next. The ninja gasped at this and got even madder, jumping faster and faster so he could complete a successful surprise attack on the bald man.

When he failed again, he opt for a different path and appeared right next to you again, offering an extremely scary smile as he giggled like a maniac. You tensed, your shoulders lifting and freezing at the feeling of this strange ninja who didn't seem to grasp the concept of personal space.

"How about us two leave this baldy here and have some fun together?" He whispered in your ear, you got chills at the sound of his voice. Saitama was already watching the two of you in disgust and when the ninja looked at him, he grew mad all of a sudden, "You! You saw through my moves that I had perfected in my childhood-"

"I don't care! Leave (Y/N) alone! Don't you know what personal space is? Jeez!" Saitama screeched, moving around like he was a child throwing a tantrum and you only stared at his sudden outburst as Saitama grew red in the face, watching as he looked like he didn't know whether to slap the ninja or himself in the face.

The ninja 'Tsk'ed' at his response, giving you a wink as he disappeared again, only to appear right above Saitama who held his fist up as if to scold the ninja before something very unusual happened. The ninja, as unfortunate it was for him, landed his.. 'privates' right on Saitama's enclosed fist. Saitama and yourself gasped in unison, laughter spilling from your mouth as everything surrounding the three of you seem to freeze, the ninja disappearing, only to appear a few metres away from Saitama.

His legs were shaking immensely, tightly pressed together as his skin was about three shades lighter, looking as if he was about to dash or faint at the same time. Saitama wouldn't admit it but he felt sympathetic and relieved at the same time when he watched this creepy Ninja close to tears.

"That's what happens when you mess with a girl who has a boyfriend! That was well deserved." You screeched as laughter continued to spill from your mouth while you clutched your stomach as you doubled over, scrunching your eyes shut as your cheeks began to become sore from laughing so much.

You heard the Saitama and the Ninja let out a sound of confusion at your words, you ignored it but simply took a breath as you watched the ninja speak, "You, what is your name."

"Uh.. Saitama."

"Saitama, next time we meet I, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, will be your demise!" He yelled with a shaky voice. it was quiet before both boys turned to you once again to hear you laughing which only made the ninja growl out, "What's so funny!"

"Are you serious! Oh my gosh, Speed-o'-Sound!? That's priceless!!"

Later on Sonic had disappeared in a haste with shaky legs and a red face at your response, Saitama was silent the whole time and by the time you had arrived home, he let out a sigh of relief when he could finally take a seat and relax. You were smiling at the sight of Genos sitting blankly on the couch as he stared at nothing and Saitama continued to sulk about something you could only guess.

The three of you sat around the table that was placed in between the television and the couch and Genos was talking about going after Sonic so that he wouldn't come back for his Sensei. You could only scoff out, "It's not like you're different!" To which Saitama answer straight after, "Yeah! Why are you here? Go home!"

"I'm here to get stronger, Sensei." The cyborg answered simply, you could only roll your eyes with a smile- Saitama and yourself already knew that and a bit more because of how much Genos tended to talk and drag on for ages. Saitama continued to sulk while he rested his head on his hands as his elbows were on the table, Genos obviously sensed his Sensei's sour mood and questioned him which only made Sai even more down in the dumps when he replied.

"He.. He didn't know who I was... Isn't it weird that I have no fans?"

"Hey! Then what am I? A Cactus?!" You yelled quickly only to be partially ignored.

But at the same time, he was right. It was weird because even today, another hero named Mumen Rider got all the credit for beating the Paradisers when you were pretty sure Hammerhead had knocked him out with a single hit. Saitama had defeated a countless amount of monsters since he first became a hero and he was never acknowledged once.

"Sensei, have you joined the Hero Registry?" Genos spoke assertively when he perked up in his seat. You scrunhed your eyes in confusion at the name of this thing Genos was talking about, it sounded stupid.

"Sounds stupid."

"Yeah.. What is it?" Saitama answered when he acknowledges your response to it but questioned anyway. Genos explained that people sign up to become a hero and they get paid from donations.

The three of you then crowded around the computer as Saitama scrolled through the official homepage and you had to laugh when your read, "..Self-proclaimed heroes are just weirdoes.." Which earned a stink eye from Sai who kept reading and perked up excitedly when Genos suggested they both sign up together to officially become heroes.
