This - is Saiki's thoughts

"This" - is Saiki using telepathy to others or hearing other's thoughts

"This" - is normal dialogue (but you won't really see Saiki actually speaking that much)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

An eerie silence suffocated the room as Saiki sat in front of the TV, unable to shake off a bad feeling. For some reason, he had woken up with an uncomfortable feeling and he was trying to forget about it by watching TV.

It's probably cuz I slept in a weird position last night. Maybe I ate something wrong. Idk.

He was so focused on the TV that he hadn't realised Genos getting up from his usual seat (from observing Saitama) to take a phone call. Only after he finished the call and hung up did Saiki turn around to see a grim expression on his face. This didn't help with Saiki's uneasiness.

"...what?" he asked cautiously, watching Genos come back to the living room.

"The Hero Association just called, calling all S class heroes for some reason," he replied, then turned to Saitama, "Saitama sensei, we'll be back."

"Oh, okay. Maybe you guys are getting fired...hehehe.." The man snickered in reply, not looking up from his manga.

"Have fun." Saiki said, sighing and turning around to face the TV again.

...

"-wait...we???" he whirled around again, locking eyes with he cyborg, who was looking at him expectantly.

"Yes, senpai. All S class heroes." Genos tilted his head a bit, confused about why Saiki was confused.

Omg...I forgot I'm an S class hero...good grief that is so annoying.

The psychic slowly got up, turned the TV off and headed towards the front door.

"...we'll be back..."  he said (thought), in a melancholic tone.

"So. Who is this old man?" Saiki stared at the grandpa who had approached them as they were walking in the closest Hero's Association office.

"That's Bang, a.k.a Silver Fang, a rank 3 S class hero," Genos replied almost immediately then turned to the man, "The association called us in. What's going on?"

The old man let out a gruff chuckle. "Yes, I am Silver Fang. I'm guessing you two are new members? Everyone else it at the main headquarters, so it's just us here, at the little branch office."

"...still haven't answered the question..." the psychic looked around, kind of like a bored child when his mom is talking to an old friend she met at the supermarket.

"Ah..do we have a young psychic?" Silver Fang asked with a surprised expression, probably reacting to the voice he heard in his head, "Well, to answer your question, there is a Dragon level threat they want us to take care of. In 35 minutes, a huge meteor will strike City Z...it unexpectedly changed paths."

WHAT

"It will wipe out City Z...and there's nothing we can do about this one," the old grandpa continued, "So I suggest you guys just evacuate with your loved ones."

...

Out of all places it HAS to be City Z, doesn't it? Why not City A, B or C?

Yes, it was almost like Saiki, Saitama and Genos were the main characters of a story.
