Enforcers 28 The Nightmare And Jealousy

"Hero!"

The white liquid began to take shape as it followed after Hero, who ran for his life as fast as he could.

"Hero!"

The voice yelled out once again as a ma.s.sive wave of white liquid splashed down around Hero just barely missing the teen.

"Stop!"

"I"

"Am"

"Helping"

"You..."

Hero slipped falling to the floor as he struggled to get back to his feet. He gasped out as his side began to ache around the spot from where he had been bitten. He hissed slightly as he turned watching the liquid wash closer to him. "Leave me alone!" Hero shouted out.

"Hero!"

The white liquid began to take shape into what looked like a ma.s.sive hand as it crashed down almost grabbing the boy!

Hero's eyes widened as he forced himself to get back up to his feet. He began to run through the hospital at a quicker pace now. He almost slipped again but caught himself on the wall as he slid past a corner. "I need to get out of here! Where the h.e.l.l am I even! And why does this feel so... So familiar?"

"Hero!"

"You aren't real!" Hero screamed out as he slid taking a corner. "Just leave me alone!" He shouted out again.

"Hero!"

The voice called his name again. A loud booming feminine voice as the hand managed to wrapped around Hero's ankle. Hero gasped out in pain as his side stung more. His eyes widened as the hospital walls began to turn into a white sludge, and the liquid on his hand began to creep up covering his side as he screamed out in pain... Hero forced his body forward breaking the sludge as he crashed down. He pulled his arms out as he crawled forward at a fast speed.

"Raiju!" Hero yelled out as he ran even faster. "Raiju! You were able to pull me out of here before right! Raiju! Please! Raiju!" He called and called but nothing happened. He wasn't connected to Raiju anymore... He was all alone

"Hero..."

Well... Not completely alone...

"...Hero..."

The voice was said so quiet and yet it seemed to echo out all across the building. Hero froze as he felt a hand placed gently on his cheek. He inhale as the hand rubbed his cheek slowly.

"Hero..."

"Why haven't you saved me yet?"

Hero let out a loud yell as he ran, jumping forward and breaking away from the hand that rubbed his cheek. All around him the hospital began to come down as it became a white liquid melting down from the sky. It began to drip down from the roof almost landing on the teen bellow! He could feel a shape behind him as something moved after him through the building. He didn't bother turning around. Instead he just ran forward as fast as he could, in a constant panic.

Turning a corner quickly the young teen was met with a lucky sight, or at least what looked like a lucky sight to him. The front door to the hospital! On the other side he only saw an endless void but he didn't care. Anywhere was better than here.

"Please don't be locked!" Hero yelled out running towards it, and almost tripping again. He reached for the handle turning it. There was a quiet click as the door flew open. Hero let out a yell as he tumbled outside. "Ha! Suck it you stupid monster! I'm free-" A white hand-fired out slamming the boy to the floor. This had the effect of coating his body in a dark red liquid...

Outside of the hospital was different, to say the least... It was nothing but a black void for as far as the eye could see with only a white roof up in the air being miles away... Despite the fact that the room was an actual void though, it wasn't dark. It also wasn't bright though? It was just enough to see around, but not enough to see out too far? A red liquid coated the ground going up to the teen's knees.

He sludged forward turning around to see the entire hospital... The entire building was bubbling as it began to melt, downwards into a white liquid.

"Hero!"

The voice said in a very soft tone as the hospital began to change. It took the shape of a ma.s.sive figure made out of the white liquid. The figure was completely blank and had no features at all. No nose, mouth, or eyes. Instead of arms, it had two ma.s.sive white tentacles. They were nothing but a pale white color.

"Hero..."

The voice said once more this time even softer.

"Leave me alone!" Hero screamed out in a panic as he backed up through the red liquid. He began to inhale but nothing happened. "I can't use my Attribute?" He closed his eyes as he brought his arm up but nothing happened. "None... None of my powers are working!"

"You can't use mine either... Not why he holds us back..."

The voice said out loud.

"Wh-Why not! And who's he?"

The monster c.o.c.ked its head down at him as it brought it's arm up slowly.

'Does not matter..."

"What! Why not? Why did you bring me here?" Hero questioned.

"You are in danger..."

It said it quietly, almost silently as if it was still considering rather it should tell him or not? It brought both its arms up as its two tentacles came together. It seemed to wait for something as everything went silent then suddenly a ma.s.sive explosion of white aura covered the thing's body. It was like it was being coated in white hot flames.

Hero gasped out as a storm seemed to be kicked up. He felt himself begin to get blown back as the monster looked down on him. "Those... That Aura? It looks familiar?"

Its tentacle came out and it placed it gently on Hero's head.

Hero froze as his body began to heat up. He tried to breathe as he felt as if a weight was placed on his shoulders. His knees buckled as he fell to his knees in the red liquid. His eyes burned as white flames exploded from his eyes melting his contacts and showing off his silver eyes, or rather... 'Her' silver eyes. The flames took shape around his body coating it in an aura of white light. Two rings seemed to surround his eyes making them appeared as if flames were coming out of them. As he stared down in shock.

"Say the words..."

Hero nodded his head as he looked up. "Fero?" He yelled out in confusion having no idea what those words meant or what they would do.

The monster's body began to shrink as it got smaller and smaller. It folded up becoming a hospital once more. A ma.s.sive tentacle remained on top, however. The arm went back and forth as it pointed out towards a direction.

Hero turned following the tentacle as his eyes narrowed in confusion.

In front of him was a fog? Inside of the fog, he could see something approaching. A figure stepped out as Hero's eyes widened in confusion. "Who the h.e.l.l is that guy? He looks kind of cool... Like really cool..."

The man stepped out of the fog with a large smirk on his face, as he walked forward each footstep echoing out. Silver hair fell down the man's back as his yellow eyes glowed a bright animalistic color as they stared out in hunger. A pair of white wings stuck out from his back along with a pair of white devil horns that came out of the top of his head. A third eye was placed in the man's forehead as it glanced around. The eye darted around looking at everything it could see before finally setteling on Hero. And strangest of all... The man's right arm was a sword. Like a literal sword. His hand was fused around the handle of the blade. His left hand looked perfectly normal save for the fact that yellow liquid dripped from it. But his right arm was just a bada.s.s longsword that had yellow flames coming off of it.

"I- I don't understand?" Hero said in confusion. "What the h.e.l.l am I even looking at... This guy looks like a bada.s.s..."

The tentacle on the hospital came down as it stabbed into the body of the weird man. He didn't seem to react though as he simply stared at them unmovingly.

"Do not."

"What?" Hero said in confusion not getting it. 'I... I'm not that bright." He said laughing slightly as he scratched his head sheepishly.

The tentacle reached up stabbing the man again. The man once again didn't seem to react at all.

"Do not."

Hero stared at the man for a few more seconds before he finally got it. "You're telling me not to fight him? But why/ He looks so cool..."

"Do not."

"I think I get it, Hospital?" Hero said nodding slightly. "You don't want me to fight this man? But why?"

"Death."

"Death! As in the me kind right?" Hero said startled as he suddenly jumped away from the man and over to the Hospitals side. "Because that's the worst kind of death..." He said nodding his head.

"Death."

Hero nodded his head as he dropped down into a cross-legged position as he sat down in the red liquid allowing it to wash over his body. It felt... Warm? Like it was a good thing... He didn't know why he was drawn to it? "I get it. I can't fight this guy because he will kill me? Right?" He said finally as he nodded again.

"Death."

"Why are you helping me?" Hero asked suspiciously as he eyed the Hospital up. "I don't remember much from my childhood but I'm pretty sure you used to want to-"

"Death."

"Yes. You wanted to Death me." Hero stated nodding his head. "I think... I dunno though? I don't really remember much of my life though. But why are you helping me this time?"

"Help."

"I'm starting to think this is a one-sided conversation..." Hero said sighing slightly. "Can you say anything else?"

"Duma.s.s..."

Hero let out a sigh as his eye twitched. He stared down at his hand which was still coated in that white aura stuff. "What the h.e.l.l is this? It looks just like that thing Max did? And what the h.e.l.l is this place? It's just like when Raiju took me here only way more... Red liquidly?" Hero stood up as he turned around staring at the hospital once more. "You're not gonna do anything to me right?" He questioned curiously.

"Save."

"Save?"

"Save."

"Save who? Save me? You're doing it to save me right?" Hero questioned.

"Save me."

Hero stepped forward confused as he pushed the doors open. "I don't understand Hospital... But. I think I can trust you... For now at least." He said as he shrugged.

"Trust."

Hero smiled slightly as he nodded his head. "Trust." He stated as he reached out placing his hand on the white liquid walls.

The entire Hospital began to shake as Hero nearly tripped from the suddenness of it. His eyes widened as he turned to see something out the window. Something was wandering towards the hospital...

"What's happening!" Hero shouted out. He hissed in pain as he grabbed his head.

White liquid exploded from the walls as it wrapped around him. Hero let out a yell as he was pulled back into the wall.

"What? What's happening!" Hero shouted again as his head began to pound?

"Doctor..."

Meanwhile in the real world...

Age 1990

"S-ave. Me-" Hero spoke quietly as he broke out into a coughing fit. "Death?" He gasped out.

Ken looked down at the boy as she placed a hand on his forehead. "Oh, c.r.a.p... He's burning up!" Ken said in shock. "He feels like he's on fire... Oww!" She hissed out as she pulled her hand away from him. Hero's skin became a nasty red... Like he had become sunburnt... Steam actually began to come off of his flesh. "That... That can't be good! We need to cool him off!"

"I'll go get Jackson," Cloud said softly as he stood up quickly. "I'll be right back." He stated.

"Maybe... Maybe I can help..." Irene said slowly as she inched over to the boy. Ken was instantlly between her and the boy as Ken stared at the girl. "Ken?"

"No way buddy. You got him in this situation. Like h.e.l.l, I'm gonna let you-"

"Ken," Irene said sternly. "Look. You can blame me, and scream at me later all you want! But right now you need to let me help Hero... My power can help him to cool off..." Ken stared at Irene for a few more seconds before she let out a low growl and turned away sliding away from the two.

"Do whatever... Just cool him off... But don't think I have forgiven you." Ken stated crossing her arms.

"Thank you..." Irene said scooting over to Hero. She reached out placing her hands on his head as she used her ability to cool him off, a light blue light covered her hands as she placed them on either side of Hero's head. "Kitsune you should keep the rest of his body warm... I'll focus on his head and try to keep his fever down."

"Uh... Okay?" Kitsune said in surprise. "This is surprisingly well thought out for you.."

"I'm gonna go with Cloud to get Jackson," Ken said softly. Her and Cloud both left the building as they walked out into the cold. "Can you believe that boy..." Ken said hissing slightly. "First they get him nearly killed, then they cry about it, and now they act like everything is fine!"

"Ken calm down," Cloud said placing a hand on the smaller girl's head. "North didn't mean to. They didn't do anything. Hero chose to push them out of the way. Just don't do anything rash."

Ken let out a huff as she kicked out kicking a can across the snow. "I just don't like it," Ken stated letting out a huff as she puffed her cheeks out.

"Relax..." Cloud said rolling his blind eyes.

The two stopped when they noticed Jackson up ahead. He was staring at the old man with a slight smile as he spoke. The old man, however, didn't look nearly as happy.

The old man looked down on the ground for a few moments. "We... We have reason to believe that there is a Nest nearby..."

"A Nest?" Ken said in confusion. "What's a Nest?"

Jackson c.o.c.ked his head up when he saw the two. "Ken! Cloud? Why are you two here?"

"It's Hero," Cloud said simply. "He's running a fever and muttering somethings."

The old man stood up slowly as he turned away. "I must be going, Brave Enforcers... When you get the chance please come to the church. I'll inform you more on the Nest." He said. "For now you should go check up on that boy of yours."

"What's a Nest?" Ken said confused.

"I'll tell you later..." Jackson said slowly as he stared at the old man. He had a look on his face. Anger? Disappointment. Really p.i.s.sed off? It was hard to tell. "Let's go. I need to see Hero..."
