Chapter Ten

Before either Twinfist or Sight could start finish me off, the sound of engines roaring in the sky made them both look up. I also looked up, wondering if there was a plane flying by or something, but I saw nothing like that. In fact, the skies looked quite clear, which made me wonder where the engine noises were coming from.

“What is that noise?” said Sight, looking around. “Is this one of your tricks, boy?”

I was about to inform Sight that I was just as clueless as he was when something flew across the treetops, over our heads, and then landed opposite us. I twisted my head to the side to be able to see who had just arrived, and when I did, I was both pleased and surprised.

Standing opposite us was none other than Mecha Knight himself. He was in his full metallic powered armor, complete with the sword at his side. From where I was lying, he looked tall and powerful and there was no fear in his body language at all.

“Who are you?” said Twinfist. “And where did you come from?”

Mecha Knight raised his sword. “I am Mecha Knight, a member of the Leadership Council of the Neohero Alliance, and the supervisor of the Young Neos superhero team. I am surprised, however, that neither of you recognize me.”

“Why should we recognize you?” said Twinfist. “Are you famous or something?”

Mecha Knight shook his head. “Not very, but I suppose it doesn’t matter. I must ask you to let Bolt, who is under my supervision, go, or else I will be forced to use violence to save him.”

“Violence?” said Twinfist. He shook his head. “I don’t know how you found this place, but it doesn’t matter. You can’t beat both of us.”

“Or even one of us,” said Sight. He put a hand on Twinfist’s shoulder. “Brother, you stand back and make sure the kid doesn’t get away. I will deal with the armored one.”

“Are you sure?” said Twinfist. “Because there’s something about that guy that just pisses me off.”

“I am sure,” said Sight. He looked over at Mecha Knight again. “I seem to recall reading about him once. He doesn’t actually have any powers; he’s just a man in a fancy suit of armor, probably built in a cave with a box of scraps. He should be easy enough to take down with a few well-placed blows.”

I gulped. Sight was right about that. As far as I knew, Mecha Knight didn’t actually have any powers. He was just an ordinary guy in a suit of armor, like Sight said. Granted, Mecha Knight was supposed to be a good fighter, but considering Sight’s super speed and invisibility, I wondered how Mecha Knight was going to keep up in his heavy armor.

“Then come at me,” said Mecha Knight, holding up a hand and gesturing for Sight to attack. “I’m ready when you are.”

Sight smirked and then vanished into thin air. Instantly, I felt a familiar gust of wind go by me as Sight dashed toward Mecha Knight.
