The Little Sister | A One Punch Man Fanfiction

Chapter 28

"So the time has come?" A familiar voice rang in my head.

"Sora?" I muttered in disbelief, earning a giggle from the light elf.

"Yes, it is I. I wanted to see how this would play out, and try to help as much as I can." She informed. "Now I believe that I have told you that you can create anything with your ability, correct?"

"Yeah, and by anything..." I muttered before taking cover behind a wrecked building. "Are living things considered?"

"Possibly." She answered as I made a black bladed dagger in my left hand. "What do you have in mind?"

"A wyvern." I shamelessly admitted with a smirk.

"To create such a beast could pose as another threat." She informed, to my dismay. "How about a machine?"

"And what do you-" I stopped as an idea crossed my mind. "Actually, there is this one machine that I've seen from a show."

"How about you give it a go?" And with that, I immediately began to create the set of equipment. The equipment itself takes the form of a body harness that encompasses much of the body below the neck. First I made the main housing, next the hand controllers, then the compressed gas cylinder, then the blades, and finally the turbine. If you still have no idea what I'm creating, it's those Omni-directional mobility gear from the show I would watch.

Once I was ready, I ran out into the battle field, and quickly aimed the grapple hooks on a giant's shoulder, before I activated the gas mechanism to reel myself towards the giant. The moment I was high enough, I disconnected the hooks and continued moving forward, aiming next at the building before I began to make my way up from there.

I eventually got there, landing safely before I quickly took off the set of equipments as quietly as possible. Thankfully, the dark elf has yet to notice me, since he was so busy yelling something before he would laugh maniacally.

I quickly created a black bladed katana in my right hand as I created a black bladed dagger in my other. The elf had dark gray skin and long pointy ears. Unlike the last time we met, he wore full black armor with gold linings here and there. He even had a cape, but had no mask. He also had a long curved blade in his left hand.

Taking the chance, I quickly skatted over to him with my katana ready to slice him in half, but just when my blade was about to pierce through his skin, he vanished, leaving black smoke.

Confused, I withdrew my blade as I turned 90 degrees, just in time to see that he had reappeared behind me, holding his sword with his left hand which was raised above his head. I quickly stepped aside to dodge his attack as he brought the blade down.

I took the chance to quickly cut him with the katana, but once again he vanished. I quickly turned around as I brought my katana up, bringing it down just in time for it to clash with his own blade. We stayed in that stance, not letting one get overpowered by the other, until I threw my dagger on his foot.

He yelled in pain as I quickly made another katana, this time the blade was made entirely out of iron, as our two long blades slid off each other to the side. Before I could even stab him, he disappeared with the dagger.

I turned around just in time to see him take the dagger out of his foot. I lunged at him as he threw the dagger away, trying to slice him in half, but once again he disappeared.

"Behind you!" I heard Sora warn me in my head.

Before I could turn fully turn around, his elbow made contact with my side, sending me flying, making me accidentally let go of my black bladed katana as I did.

My grip on my iron katana tighten as I plunged it deep onto the ground, making me stop just before I could fall to my death. I quickly got back on my feet as I created a naginata which I held in my right hand. The blade was also made entirely out of iron.

I glared at the dark elf who snarled at me in return, before I ran up to him with the naginata in hand. I quickly swung it up once he was within range, and as expected, he disappeared. That didn't stop me from using my momentum to make me turn 180 degrees, before I swung the weapon down, getting the dark elf in his left shoulder.

I smirked at this as I brought the blade deeper into his shoulder, making him yell in pain even more, before he grabbed the naginata with his right hand, and pulled it out, before he threw it to the side.

I quickly took this chance to give him an uppercut with my right hand, lifting him up from the ground, before I quickly followed it up with an axe kick, sending him back down to the ground, leaving a crack.

I created a iron bladed dagger in my right hand, ready to end him, when he disappeared once again. I groaned in annoyance as I look around. I was about to ask Sora when he appeared in front of me with no wounds. He began circling me, and I was about to dismiss it and try to stab him again until when he begins to leave an afterimage of his body through a varying cadence of steps. It kind of reminds me when an animator showed me his work in progress but had forgotten to turn the onion skin off- but that's not the case right now!

I looked around as his afterimages began to circle me, confusing me more and more, until I felt someone punch me in the face, which was followed by a knee to the gut. I fell to the floor with a thud, but eventualyl got back on my feet, only to be beaten down again by the invisible force.

"S.. z... o..." I heard a voice in my head but a static like sound blocked it out. It eventually began to get louder, "Su... no... Suzuno... it's an.. il..."

"It's.. illusion..." It spoke again.

Suzuno, it's an illusion. Is that what you're trying to tell me?

With a sigh, I got back on my feet as I closed my eyes, hoping to just receieve yet another punch, but a sharp blade dug deep into my right side, making me yell out in pain as I fell down to my knees, but I quickly took the chance to create once more.

In a blink of an eye, sharp spikes appeared from the ground, surrounding me, all pointing outward. A loud yell of pain was heard as the afterimages disappeared all together.

I quickly looked around, still holding onto my wounded right side, until my eyes landed on the dark elf who had three spikes going through it's body.

He got caught in them.

With a satisfied smile, I created an iron bladed dagger in my right hand, before I threw it at the dark elf, stabbing him in between his two eyes.

He should be dead by then.

A sigh escaped my lips as I fell on my knees. Even if I was in pain, I was happy to have completed my mission, to have gotten my revenge.

"Hey, Sora, you said that I won't die until I'm satisfied, right?" I asked her as I noticed that the building I was standing on was starting to crumble and fall.

"That is correct." I heard her answer in my mind.

"Then will it be alright for me to die now?" I asked, followed by a small laugh. "I'm quiet satisfied with what I've accomplished to be honest."

She stayed silent for a moment until the floor beneath me began to fall.

"We'll see."

I'm still thinking if I should give this a happy ending or a sad ending.
