Chapter 16: Second Best Appears
(Super's POV)
I walked into the stadium and saw (Y/N) walking towards me. I ran up to him.
(Y/N): Mom?
Super: Is she alright?
(Y/N): The nurse promised me she will be.
Super: That's great to hear. Go back to the rest of your friends. They'll be delighted to hear Katie is going to be ok.
I gave (Y/N) a quick hug. I let go and I walked past him. While walking, I walked past some people.
Man: Oh wow! It's Super!
A lot of people immediately looked over and saw me. They all got near me, taking pictures and stuff.
Woman: Can I get your autograph?!
I laughed nervously and waved at them.
Super: I'm sorry, but I'm really busy right now. Maybe after the tournament.
I walked past them, but the crowd just followed me. I sighed to myself. This is about the usual. I saw a staircase and a woman was about to walk down it. She has navy blue hair tied in a ponytail and a scar across the right side of her face. She has a dark blue cape and armor, that is silver with golden highlights, starting from her shoulders and going down to her feet.
Man: N-No way! Is that Top?! The Number 2 Hero?!
She turned to look over at the man who said that and saw me.
Top: Super...
I smiled at her, trying to be friendly with her.
Super: It's been a bit, hasn't it Top?
Top looked past me and looked at the crowd behind me.
Top: Leave us! Now!
The crowd got scared and they ran off. Top sighed.
Top: What do you want?
Super: Did you just get here?
Top: No. I've been here since the damn tournament started.
Super: You have? Well, what did you think about your son's first match?
Top: Do you really think I need to waste my time with that? So he won his first match, big damn deal. Do you want me to give him a gold medal and a kiss on the cheek?
Top turned to face me completely, revealing that she's holding a blue trident in her right hand and in her left... Well... She doesn't have her left arm.
Top: How I see it now, my son isn't even worthy of being called My Prince. I'll eat my own trident if he wins the tournament and beats you in a fight. After his little speech to me earlier, I hope I raised him right to be a man of his word.
Top turned and started to walk down the stairs. She stopped herself and looked up at me.
Top: You better not hold back on Dave, if he does make it.
Super: Well, you better start watching the next match. I'm sure my boy will give you a great match to watch.
Top: I'll just have to see for myself.
Top walked, leaving my line of sight. I felt something vibrating in my pocket. I reached in my pocket and pulled out an earpiece. I put it in my right ear.
Chemist: Super? Super? Chemist to Super?
Super: I can hear you.
Chemist: Only took you an hour to respond. We are ready to start the next match of the tournament. (Y/N) already told me Katie is alright.
Super: I'm on my way.
I quickly ran around and quickly made it back to the arena area. It's all fixed up. I walked over to my platform and stood on it.
Fox: Ok everyone! Before we begin the tournament once more, I have to say that the winner of the least match was Chris.
Everyone in the seats started to boo.
Man 1: Are you serious?!
Man 2: You're letting that monster go on?!
Fox: I know it makes you all upset to hear that, but by the rules of the tournament, he won his match!
Chemist: I have gotten confirmation that both participants are doing well and are expected to make a full recovery before the next match ends!
The crowd started to calm down after Chemist said that.
Chemist: And without further delay... The next match can begin!
Fox: It's the final match of the first round. (Y/N) versus Isabelle.
(Y/N) and Isabelle walked onto the arena.
Super: Make sure you two have fun!
I'm only really saying that to (Y/N). He looked at me and gave me a small smile. I had to restrain myself from immediately jumping at him and giving him a tight hug.
Super: Let the final match of round 1 start!
(Readers POV)
(Y/N): Times 10!
I ran at Isabelle. She reached into her coat and pulled out a machete. What the hell?! Is she actually allowed to have that?! Isabelle swung her machete at me. I blocked it with my arm instinctually. It cut through some of my skin, spilling a small amount of blood.
Isabelle: You really as dumb as I thought. Blocking a blade instead of dodging.
Isabelle raised her machete and swung it down at me again. I took her advice and jumped back.
Super: Isabelle! You can't use such a weapon! You will be disqualified if you continue!
Isabelle: Then stop me.
I looked over at my mom and she stayed still. I looked over at Mr. Black and Chemist and they aren't moving as well. They all have a yellow aura around them. I looked back at Isabelle. She smiled at me. Is she doing this with her Power?!
(Y/N): Times 100!
I ran over at Isabelle and punched her in the face. She looked over at me and smiled, like she isn't even fazed from my punch. I saw my red aura start to get smaller.
(Y/N): What's going on?
Isabelle: I'll tell you.
She kicked me in the stomach. I spat out some saliva. Isabelle slashed her machete across my chest, cutting my shirt and sending me back. I felt something warm slowly going down my chest. I put my hand on my chest and looked at my hand, seeing blood on it.
Isabelle: What I am doing is in fact from my Power. I call it Time Control. I can control the very concept of time!
(Y/N): So you froze everyone's position in time?
Isabelle: That's right. And I reverted your body back down to when your body was using times 10 of your Power.
No way! I'm in way more trouble than I thought. I can tell by looking at Isabelle, that she wants to kill me.
(Y/N): Times 100!
I dashed at Isabelle. I tried to kick her, but she blocked it with her machete.
Isabelle: You should stop. I've already seen your movements in the future.
I saw my aura start to shrink again.
(Y/N): Times 1,000!
I kicked at Isabelle again. She tried to block it with her machete, but I kicked it and broke the blade. I went to punch Isabelle, but she disappeared.
(Y/N): Where did she go?!
I felt something stab into my back. I looked behind me and saw the broken part of the machete blade into me. I felt blood escape from my mouth. I saw Isabelle walking towards me.
Isabelle: After I'm done with you...
She appeared right behind me. I tried to move, but I couldn't. Isabelle kicked the blade deeper into me, causing me to scream in pain.
Super: (Y/N)!!!
Isabelle: ...Your mother is next.
(Y/N): Wh-What?
Isabelle bent down and got right to my ear.
Isabelle: That's right, I've been sent here to kill you and Super.
(Y/N): Who wants me and my mom dead?
Isabelle: You'll know... In the afterlife.
I felt the blade exit my body. I spat out a lot of blood. I stood up and tried to put my guard up.
Chemist: Isabelle! Stop it!
Isabelle: I can't stop.
I looked above me and saw the broken blade above me. It started to glow yellow and tons of broken blades appeared.
Isabelle: This is the same broken blade, just from different points in the past, present, and future.
All the blades flew down at me, cutting through my skin all around. I tried to get out of the way, but a yellow aura surrounded me, making me unable to move. All the blades flew over to Isabelle.
Isabelle: Now, rest.
She sent all the blades at me. They all stabbed into my body. I started to pass out from all the blood loss and pain. I fell down on my back and closed my eyes. My life started to flash before my eyes. I saw my mom, as happy as can be, hugging me with as much love as possible. I saw Katie looking at me, with a blushing face, and saying she loves me. I saw Ivy and Dave, being their normal, stupid selves.
Super: (Y/N)!!!
(Isabelle's POV)
I sighed. That was a lot easier than I thought. If (Y/N) was anything to go by, then Super shouldn't be anymore of a challenge. I felt the ground start to shake. I turned around and saw a huge pillar of red energy, going into the sky.
Isabelle: What is this?
I saw a figure standing up in the pillar. The pillar of energy disappeared and I saw a man standing there. Red energy covered all his body, making it look like his skin is red. He doesn't have pupils in his eyes, just being a pure white color. He doesn't have a shirt on and his pants are torn.
Isabelle: Is that actually (Y/N)? I didn't see this when I looked into the future.
The shaking stopped. He took a step forward. I can feel all the power from the step all the way from here.
Isabelle: So you won't stay down huh? Don't start begging for mercy.
I used my Power and the blades inside his body flew out of him. (Y/N) didn't react from it. I sent them forward. They went right through (Y/N), not making a scratch on him.
Isabelle: What the hell is going on? My blades just went through his body like they didn't even exist.
(Y/N) jumped at me with extreme speed. I used my Power and stopped time. (Y/N) only being a few centimeters away from me.
Isabelle: That was close.
I walked around (Y/N) and got ready to stab him in the back. I tried to stab him, but something grabbed my hand. It was (Y/N)'s hand.
Isabelle: What?! How are you moving in stopped time?!
He didn't say anything. I tried looking into the future, trying to see what I can. I don't see me and (Y/N)'s fight in the future, just me on the arena and (Y/N)'s lifeless body on the ground.
Isabelle: Impossible! That can't be right! You have to be dead! I must be seeing things!
(Y/N) punched me in my gut. I spat out some blood. This pain is real. This can't be my imagination. How is (Y/N) doing this?!
Isabelle: You really have some sort of death wish, don't you?!
I used Time Control and using it to put me in a past position, away from (Y/N). I resumed times flow. I looked at everyone else, and they are seeing what I'm seeing.
Isabelle: Time to show everyone that this is just delaying the inevitable!
I held my machete up into the air. It started to glow yellow, forming a longer yellow blade.
Isabelle: This is the energy from all of my attacks across time! From the past, present, and future!
(Y/N) just stared at me. I need him to take this attack for a chance of him staying down. I froze his position in time, a yellow aura surrounding him. He shouted, shattering the yellow aura.
Isabelle: H-He broke my Time Position Cage?!
Now I know why He wants me to kill (Y/N). (Y/N) is a threat! He's surpassing my time abilities! If (Y/N) is to be left alive, then who knows how much stronger he'll get!
Isabelle: Take this!
I dashed at (Y/N). He also dashed at me, reeling his fist back. After getting close enough to him, I swung my machete and he threw his punch. I felt my machete connect with something, making a lot of smoke cover the entire area. The smoke slowly cleared the area, revealing that Super stopped mine and (Y/N)'s attack with her arms. She flinched in pain, but stayed on her feet. She stopped my most powerful attack and stopped (Y/N) as well. Just how strong are these two?!
Super: That's enough. This match is over.
The red energy surrounding (Y/N) disappeared. He closed his eyes and fell down to the floor. Super looked at me with malice in her eyes, it's actually terrifying. She grabbed my arm and chopped my neck hard, instantly knocking me out.
