The Varieties of Pride

Garou and Bang slashed at each other, red mixing with blue. They were moving so fast, even Genos himself was impressed.

"Offense and defense in perfect harmony," Raibaru said. "I haven't done martial arts for a while, but... it still always impresses me."

"You were able to put up a rather decent fight against Garou," Genos told her. "You are strong, after all. But... the victor is already clear."

Raibaru nodded. Bang dug his hand into Garou's cheek, knocking him across the ground. Garou got up and lunged towards him, but Bang shoved his knee into his chest. He sent Garou flying through the trees, taking them all out. Garou got only a moment of peace before Bang jumped on him, destroying the ground around him. He then proceeded to punch Garou multiple times.

Damn this old sob, Garou thought, his vision going blurry. I... I'm going to die.

Using the last of his strength, he leaped away from Bang, hopping around the trees on four legs.

"What is this preposterous style?" Bang demanded. "Where'd you pick it up? It's as if you're an animal."

I'm not done! Garou thought. He raced towards Smile Man's body. I can use him as an advantage!

"Oh no you don't," Bomb said, stepping in Garou's path. He kicked Garou in the head, sending him flying. He landed in the blue blood of monsters.

"I took care of the monsters," Bomb said. "Bang, all that remains is Garou!"

Meanwhile, above the fight, a monster by the name of Phoenix Man was flying through the sky. The monster gazed down at the battle, annoyance etched into his feathers.

We sent in a team to bring Garou back alive, but we had no idea Demon Cyborg is so strong, he thought. And then there's Silverfang. I see no way of pulling Garou out. He squinted at the bushes. And where is that Yan-chan girl? It appears she has left. I need to bring back something, or Orochi might devour me next... I need Garou to somehow get through this alive.

Bang and Bomb turned to face Garou, hands up.

"I can't believe he's still going," Raibaru muttered, mostly to herself. "How strong is he?"

Genos didn't say anything, instead focusing on the battle. Bang and Bomb charged towards Garou, slicing him up with their moves.

These bastards are ganging up on me, Garou thought, angrily. They're both powerful. I can't even sob for my life, because Demon Cyborg would never let me go. The only thing I can pray on is that Yan-chan girl helping me, but she's nowhere! Useless bitch. My only way out of this is killing all three of them!

He groaned as Bang sliced him across the face.

But that's impossible...

"Feel the pain Charanko felt, Garou!" Bang yelled.

Garou blinked, his vision fading in and out. He saw his life flashing before his eyes.

"I am Justice Man!" the most popular boy in class said, standing on top of the playground. He kicked another student from behind.

"That must've hurt," Garou said, timidly.

"Okay, then, you be the monster," the boy replied.

"What?" Garou asked.

"You be the monster!" his fellow classmates taunted. "You be the monster!"

Everything about this sucks, older Garou thought, watching the scene. What was his name...

"You're the monster now, got it?" the boy told Garou.
