Hidden

*flashback the last time anyone saw a hero in town*

Chaos stuck the town while more villains appeared. Ones we have never seen before. There were many more than before.

I had my camera out again trying to be more cautious.

I was hiding with a hood and glasses. I would hide in tight corners and places no one could see.

I recorded the heroes and villains fighting. Finally the heroes struck back hard. It seemed the heroes were going to win until...

My heart sank while my eyes widen as I see all the heroes stop moving all the sudden then they all collapsed to the ground.

The villains were on the ground recovering while someone new popped up.

I see someone in a cloak with his hands out.

"W-what is.. Happening?!" I hear Super Punch managed to say.

I see the heroes trying to look up, some did while others failed.

I see the other villains slowly getting up behind the guy.

"Seems like the heroes just lost. Now..why don't you all show them what happens to heroes in this town."

I see all the villains walk up to each individual hero.

I tensed knowing this wasn't going to end well.

'What do I do.. What do I do? That guy in the cloak... If he gets down then... The heroes could stand a chance.'

I look around for anything.

I feel my phone go off in my pocket.

I quickly look and see a message from an anonymous number.

-Distract the guy in the cloak.. I'll save the heroes.. Please.. You helped Human Kite.. Please.. Help me save my team.

'I don't have anything...'

I look down at my camera realizing what I needed to do.

'Okay... I'll do it for the heroes..'

I hear the heroes groan trying to escape somehow while the villains hover over them ready to attack.

I grit my teeth grabbing my big heavy camera off my neck.

I take a hard step forward for extra momentum and I threw my camera at the one with the cloak really hard in the face.

He yelled out holding his face. Right as that happened the heroes regained their ability to move.

Suddenly there were small explosions causing all villains to collapse to the ground groaning in pain with smoke coming from there outfits.

I hear the leader groaning out loud holding his face still.

I hear a voice from up high.

"Young alliance retreat now!!"

I look up seeing a woman figure up high looking down at the heroes.

I look back feeling my heart sink seeing the whole group of heroes gone.

I grit my teeth looking around for a way out for myself.

I see the leader look around furious with rage.

His face... Is so fucked up damn..I know my camera was heavy and all. I guess my throw as a little too hard. Whatever he's lucky I didn't find a crowbar.

I quickly leaned against the wall hiding seeing him looking around. He bent down picking up my camera. He grit his teeth looking around.

"The journalist... MEN!! WHEN YOU FIND THAT JOURNALIST I WANT YOU TO TEAR HER INTO PIECES...SHE DID THIS.. SHE'S OUT HERE SOMEWHERE FIND HER!!! KILL HER!!"

My heart sank as I slowly back up feeling my whole body tremble in fear.

I see him look my way. My eyes widen as I stopped moving. I felt instant tears fall off my face.

'I'm going to die..'

I see him walk my way.

"You better hope that's not you little girl!" he growled balling his fists.

I panicked turning around running in the shadows.

Out of nowhere I stopped moving feeling a force stopping me forcing me to the ground hard.

I hear footsteps coming closer to me.

I held back tears.

I was flipped by force.

I see the guy look down at me.

"KILLER CROC... DINNER IS READY!!"

My body shaking in denial.

'No please no..'

I hear heavy footsteps coming toward me.

I cried out closing my eyes.

"Your cries fuel my power insect!!!"

My eyes shot open when I choked out feeling a lot of force on my neck.

I felt my eyes roll back trying to breath.

"Can I dig in!?"

"Go ahead... I'll be sure to watch."

I arch my back trying to breath as the smallest noises came out of my mouth trying to breath.

Suddenly hear something crash nearby. At that moment the pressure in my neck went away.

I breathed in with everything I could. I felt the tickle in my throat causing me to cough harshly holding my neck.

"THE HEROES ARE BACK!!"

"Damn it!!!! Kill them!!!"

"Croc... Kill her..."

"With pleasure."

I see the guy leave.

I feel my heart ache in pain as I look up seeing the monster look at me licking his lips. I quickly crawl back in fear. He grabbed my ankle pulling me to him harshly. I screamed out as he grabbed my arms about to bite my face. I closed my eyes waiting for death. That's when I hear him scream out loud.

When he looked back I see a deep red burn on his back.

Before I knew it I felt myself being lifted.

I almost screamed but a part of me knew it wasn't an enemy... I felt..safe in these pair of arms.

Suddenly I was on a roof. My heart sank looking down I grabbed whatever was holding me.

"Oh my god.. What happened?!?!" I hear on the street.

"CROC WHERE IS SHE?!"

I look down seeing the villains fighting nothing as if they were hallucinating.

"Are you Okay?" I hear above me.

My heart sank as I slowly look up.

I see the hero from a while back.

"Y-yeah..."

"Did you get hurt?"

"I... I'm fine.."

He slowly set me down.

I look up at him.

"T-thank you.. For saving me.."

"I think... Your mistaken.."

I was taken back by his comment.

"We should all thank you.. Your the reason why we are all alive right now."

I tensed.

"I.... Am?"

He nodded. "You know...we could use someone like you on our team."

I tensed up.

"I... Am not a hero though."

"You don't need powers to be a hero."

My eyes widen.

"Am I capable?"

"You saved my life twice now.. If that doesn't earn my respect for you to be a hero then I don't know what else you'd have to do."

I felt a smile crawl on my face.

"I just want to help."

"You have helped so much.."

I looked down.

"I... Feel useless though I'm not like you all with these abilities.."

"Your not useless in our eyes, you don't need abilities to be helpful. We will do anything to protect you. You have our word."

I hear his watch go off in an alarm.

He looked at it holding his arm out. Then looked up at me.

"I... Have to go."

He was about to hit his button.

"Wait..."

I grabbed his hand.

He looked at me shocked.

"Will I... See you again?"

He tensed.

"Let's... Hope it doesn't come to that."

I look down and nod.

I felt his hand on my shoulder.

I look up.

"When your in danger..I'll be there."

I gave a small smile.

He hit his button.

"One more thing hero.. What's your name?"

I see him smile.

"Human Kite."

With that... He disappeared.

That was the last time I saw the heroes for awhile.

*present day*

Chaos struck the little mountain town known as South Park.

I was in my news van when the camera guy and broadcaster stopped the vehicle.

I grabbed the back of the seats as I was thrown to the front.

My mouth fell seeing the mutated creature known as Killer Croc smashed the front of our van.

We all scream as it was lifted off the ground.

"Everyone get out!!" I yelled.

I quickly unbuckle both of them grabbing them by their arms pulling them.

I kicked the back door open looking back at them.

"Jump now!!"

They jumped before me. I was about to jump but the van was thrown.

"Jess!!!"

I smashed against the side of the van at it crashed into something.

I felt so much pain on my head instant tears were coming. I groaned slowly open my eyes seeing the creature looking at me.

I couldn't move.

I couldn't speak.

I tried so hard to move then...

"There's no need to struggle insect..."

I tensed as I knew that voice I see him walk up looking at me in pure hatred.

I felt tears coming.

"Oh darling... Don't cry... It'll all be over soon... You will be disposed of shortly. Croc? Bring her to the tower."

"With pleasure..."

I see Croc grab me throwing me on his shoulder. I couldn't move or make a noise. I could only feel tears fall off my face.

________

I was taken up high as he was climbed on a building. The view was traumatizing knowing he could drop me at any moment.

When we get to the top he grabbed my camera from my chest.

He laughed out loud aiming the camera as a selfie recording.

"Hello all of South Park!!! Today!!! We have a little show!!!!

I was thrown to the ground harshly.

I yelled out feeling wetness on my face coming from my head all the way to my chin. I looked down at my hands seeing blood dripping from my chin on the ground. I slowly touched my head where I crashed it on the van earlier. I felt my hands shake when I see my hand covered in blood. I was looking up in fear still holding my hand out seeing him with my broadcasting camera.

"We have this little journalist who got herself into trouble.... Now.... We shall see if the little heroes of this town will show up AGAIN.... This is what happens when your trusty heroes are too scared to show their faces."

He walked up to me recording.

I slowly back up looking at him feeling my breath quicken. I cried out feeling my head throbbing in pain with blood dripping move on my face.

He laughed walking up to me.

"Oh this brings back memories hopefully this time I see you splat."

He held his hand out.

I quickly turn to run feeling him pull my hair.

I screamed out holding my hair.

"Oh little girl.... Your screams are music to my ears I cant wait to hear it till you squish like a bug."

I was thrown really close to the ledge. I fell with my face facing the floor seeing more drips of blood on the back of my hand.

"Hmmm seems no heroes have come yet... Ohhh well. It was nice knowing you doll, hope no one catches you this time."

I slowly look up at him with weak eyes feeling myself cold and weak. I see him smile placing his foot on my chest with a lot of brute force he kicked me off the ledge.

My heart was racing so much while my body was in shock. I couldn't scream or do anything. I was so weak from all the blood I had already lost. I look up slowly blinking.

I see him recording me fall laughing loudly.

The closer I got to the ground the more I was giving up.

'Please.. Save me... Please.. Please...'

I closed my eyes waiting for death. My eyes shot open feeling heavy adrenaline kick in.

'NO....I NEED HIM...I NEED..'

"HUMAN KITE SAVE ME!!!" I screamed out to the top of my lungs.

Within a second I feel a strong breeze hit me.

I felt arms around me in an strong embrace then I was in a dark room.

I hear panting above me.

My eyes fell above me then they widen in disbelief.

"H-Human kite?"

He was panting looking down at me.

I felt tears come.

"You came..."

"I told you when your in danger.."

"I haven't seen any heroes in so long I...was so scared."

He slowly set me down slowly touching my face with his thumb. With his other hand I felt him place it on my head. I cried out in pain.

"Shh...it's okay."

My eyes widen when I felt a cooling sensation on my head where I smashed my it.

I breathed out in relief feeling it no longer throbbing.

"I'm sorry we have to be quick and quiet...I... Didn't want him to see me but...."

He looked over at the window.

It was broken.

I look back at him.

"If any heroes want to make it out alive they have to be quiet and stealthy."

I look down sad when he let go of my head and face.

"Human kite this town is in so much danger and chaos...will it ever be the same?"

"I...don't know.."

I hear his watch go off. He looked up at me with sad eyes.

I look up at him with tears coming.

"I... Have to go.."

He looked down holding his arm out hitting his button. He looked back at me.

"We will.. Try our best... But... We are just trying to be careful."

With that he disappeared.

I grit my teeth.

'I want to help them.. I want to help..'
