Enforcers 174 Back With Hero

"Finally!" Hero yelled throwing his arms into the air. "Man! I was getting bored not getting any screentime."

"What?" Shelly said startled by his sudden yell.

"Ahh, it's nothing. It's just been eleven chapters since I was relevant! Doesn't the Author know that I'm like the main character! I'm supposed to be the best by default!"

"What? Main character? This is real life?"

"Ahh, you wouldn't get it. To meta for you."

Shelly let out a sigh as she shook her head. "How did I end up with the weirdo."

"Well come on! We got to go check out that explosion."

"Didn't you want me to take you to the lab?" The pink-haired girl asked.

Hero shrugged slightly. "I mean... Yeah, that's important. But if someone is in danger then..."

Both the Seraphin and Cherubim stopped suddenly. Both went back to back as they looked around.

"You feel that to right?" Hero asked his eyes were narrowed as he looked left and right.

"Yeah..." Shelly bit her lip. "This power... Several... Someone's coming-"

There was a flash of green as a figure dropped from the sky suddenly landing in between the two of them.

"Heather?" Hero said started when he saw the Noble Okane, holding his daughter. "Wait a minute you're a bad guy!" Hero threw his arm out wrapping it around Heather and yanking her out of her father's arms as he jumped away. He now held the girl as Okane stopped a look of wrath in his eyes.

"Give her back you fool." He hissed out as a large green blade made out of coins formed in his hands. His aura was pitch white and crackled around him as he took a step forward. "I don't have long before that man catches up..."

"You know this guy?" Shelly asked quietly as she stood next to Hero.

"Yeah... I didn't really want to believe it... But his scent. It's the exact same as one of the Organization members I fought a while back. This man. He's part of the Organization. Worse yet I think he's trying to kill his daughter who is this girl." Hero shrugged. "He's a real nasty fellow if he actually did this damage to her..."

Shelly looked down at Heather who was still in Hero's eyes. She was completely unconscious at this point. Barely breathing. She also had some burn marks on her body. She just looked awful...

"She's in a pretty rough shape... That man must be a real monster to have done this to his daughter." Shelly hissed out.

Okane growled as his eyes flashed with rage. "Idiots! I'm not the one who did that! Now hand her over! I'm out of time. I won't hesitate to kill you both if you stay in my way!"

Hero set Heather on the ground as he began to crack his knuckles. "Last time we fought it didn't go too well for me." Hero laughed sheepishly. "I had to go Monster-Point to keep up. Can't that now though. I'm speeding up the monster transformation every time I'm like that. Pretty soon I'll active my Renacido and turn into a real monster."

"So you intend to fight me without your Monster-Point?" Okane frowned as he stepped forward. "What a fool."

Shelly placed her hands together as a white aura surrounded her body. "Stay back dumbass. I'll fight him. You don't have Mantra, and if you aren't going to transform you'll only get in my way."

Hero chuckled slightly as he scratched the back of his head. "My buddy Max said the same thing. I'm useless without my Transformation, but I can't use it otherwise I'll give up who I am. Ava... Someone I want to save. I promised. At least the image of her anyways... I'm going to save her. Because of that, I need a new way to get stronger... It took a while but I and Max figured something out while we were training. It isn't perfect yet but I'm working on it."

"What are you blabbering on about?" Okane asked. He frowned as he stared at the boy.

Shelly also frowned. "Hero... Mantra allows you to negate Attribute affects. Unless you can counter someone's Mantra with your own, then your Attribute is useless. And you don't have Mantra. So whatever attack you have planned won't work."

"That's a good point." Hero said nodding. "But it isn't a new attack." He placed a hand on the girl's head as her eyes went wide. "I can't active my Mantra. Not on my own. But me and Max discovered just how close I was. Close enough that all I need is that little push. I just need to take that step. And you." His silver eyes glared back at Okane as the man realized what was about to happen. "You're more than enough of a motivation for me to step forward!"

There was a bright flash as a place white aura covered Hero's body as his Mantra flickered to life. It blinked rapidly going in and out but managed to stay. 

"You activated your Mantra!" Shelly said shocked. 

"No..." Okane growled as he raised his blade up. "A Seraphin has blue Mantra... He didn't activate his own... That push you were talking about. You can't activate your own Mantra so you latched onto the girls and fueled it with your own power. You're using borrowed power!"

"I'm a Seraphin." Hero smirked as his arms began to expand. Several bones pipes began to stab out of them as he raised his arms up. "My entire being is nothing more than borrowed power!" He screamed as he brought his arms down sending out a wave of wind.

"I guess we're doing this!" Shelly screamed as a ball of pink flames exploded out of her hands and flew towards the man in front of them.

'Boom!'

The smoke settled slowly showing a heavily beat up Okane as he let out a grunt. "Shit... Now that he has Mantra... That damn freaks attacks actually hurt..."

"I'm going to defeat you!" Hero announced charging forward.

"I won't lose!" Okane roared.
