The night felt cold. The city's light brighten around the arrears but it could not reach to the dark corners of the city. Deep in the underground subways are those who seek shelter and warmth. They are the forgotten , the victims whose homes were demolish by the villains and hero attacks. The only warmth they can feel are each other's bodies. Out on the edge a group of young kids gather around the small fire to seek warmth. They used the flames to cook up the food that they scavenged. They've taken off the mould colour off to be more editable.
"Shit, it's getting cold." One of the kids complain. They get closer to the flames to be warm.
"Have you seen the new hero's that came out on the news. They look so cool."
"Pfft, who cares about that. Want to see we can steal the delivery truck of cakes. They're bringing them in to that shop tomorrow morning."
"Hell yeah."
"Are you going to eat that?"
"I'm saving it for Nero. He was supposed to be back from his part time job."
"You haven't heard?"
"What?"
"One of my buddies who lived in Matsudo, a few people went disappearing."
"Aren't the cops looking for them."
"Yeah right! Like anyone care about us. If your not from a high society, they can care less."
"Bush is right. Its us against them! We look out for our own."
The small group agree. News spread of the homeless disappearing. They've complain it to the police but they haven't solve the case. Looking for missing Homeless seem hopeless to them. Most of them have went to rehab, went to other cities to find jobs. Same excuses that the police told them. But there was no proof of it. Out in the street, a young boy who close up a small ramen shop to head home for the night. He look young to be working. He have dark blue hair, he place his hair in a ponytail. The shops around him have all close up for the day. He carry left overs that stay in the shop. He was proud that their would be enough for everyone tonight. He walk in the night breeze to only hear a second footstep behind him. He have his head down, not looking back. Ignoring the person behind him. His only focus is to be around people. He can hear the footsteps getting closer to him. He try not to look back, he pick up the pace to get somewhere safe. He stop by the traffic light. He turn to take a peak but no one was there. Strange, he thought. He walk to the other of the street. He felt a hard pull to the corner of the alleyway. His screams muffled by the hands of his kidnapper.
Hime yawn as she waits for the subway. Fenrir stand beside her, wearing his services dog vest. She can feel the air getting cold at the tip of her pink nose. 'Hmm, the weather is going to change.' Hime look up at the sky. She can feel the shiver up to her arms.
Next stop, Musutafu.
It didn't take long for her to reach her destination. She ran out as soon rush hour hit. She walk around the areas that she's familiar with. She hate passing by the luxury shopping centers, something about them hurt her eyes with too many bright colours. And the people made her in a sour mood. She was finally entering the south side of Musutafu, most people call it the edge town since it was closer to the ocean area. It may not have been pretty like the center of Musutafu but it was home. She can see Fenrir getting excited to see some recognised face. She past by a old burger stand that she first try out with Andrea. She like the food there since she know they made the food fresh there. The shop owner notice her right away.
"Seifuku! It's been a while!" He smile at her.
"Good day Mr.Neji. How are you?"
"Heard you went to some fancy school. The doc keeps bragging about it." He laughs.
"Oh." Hime groan. "I'm sorry about her."
"Ah, don't be! Hell, I'll be bragging too if my good for nothing lazy son went to. But we both know that ain't happing any time soon." He laughs. Hime nervously laughs with him. "Hmm, where's that sphere at? You two are usually together all the time."
"Ah, I left Adam behind this time."
"Is that so." He sound surprise. "Welp, I ain't going to keep you. Tell the doc I said hi."
"Well do Mr.Neji. Enjoy the rest of your day." Hime wave at him.
She kept walking but it seems forever to get there. The people around the neighbourhood notice Hime right away. It was only because of Andrea. She's their only doctor who was affordable for them. The edge, as they call it. Wasn't like most areas that Hime walk past. They still have broken buildings that they never fix, unwanted trash were around. Something that are push to here because of the fights between the hero's and the villains. Broken furniture, broken buildings, what ever that is trash is now what they used for those who lost their homes. They enterprise what they can. Hime can see the light house up ahead. It was the only building that have the largest tower. She can see it from a mile away. Hime smile to herself to see the ocean. It felt like forever to her since she seen the ocean. Even though the town look trashy, the one thing that was still beautiful was the ocean. Her eyes look the bright blue see, waves crash to the rocks. Her sight soon turn dark.
"Guess who?" She heard a gentle happy voice. Hime couldn't stop her grin. She took a sniff to smell a light vanilla scent with a hint a apple.
"Hi Himiko!" Hime call out her name.
"No fair!" He puffs her cheeks. "This time I used Andrea's voice!"
"Hehe, you can hide your appearance love. But not your scent."
Hime told her. The both of them did their handshake together. Pumping their hips together. They finally hug each other.
"Hehe, I miss you!"
"I miss you too! It's boring without you."
"You know I'm the star of your life." Toga told her. The both of them laughs. They walk towards the lighthouse. Rose bushes bloom around the large house. It's the only house that's far off the edge. It look a lot bigger last time she was here. She open the door to only see that it was still quiet. Fenrir right away run in happily to be home.
"We're coming in!" Himiko yelled.
"Wait! WAit! No! Bad boy! Fenrir!" They heard a loud thud. They see tomura on the floor being lick by Fenrir. He try to push him off.
'Bad dog!" He yelled at him. Fenrir pin him down and lick him happily. Toga and Hime try to hold in their laughter. "Help! Get this beast off of me!"
"Heheheh, okay. Come on Fenrir." Hime pull him back. She saw Tomura sat up, wiping the drool off of him.
"Yuck!" He try to wipe it off. Hime held out her hand to help him. She gave him her genital smile.
"Hehe, are you okay?"
"Hmp," he gets up on own."Honestly, control that dog of your's."
Hime try not to smile but she couldn't help it. Even though he said that, he never really mind for Fenrir to jump on him. He look at her, "The Doctor is out in the back." He told her. "I'll go get her."
"ah!" Sora walk in. Her short pixie silver hair look silky and smooth. Her big round silver eyes fix on Hime. She have long, full eyelashes. She almost look like a doll. She hug Hime tightly. "Lady Hime! Welcome home! Have you eaten? If you like, I'll make your favorite! Spicy Seafood stew!"
"That sounds good!" Hime smile. She felt a hand ruffle on her hair. It almost surprised her. She can smell the ash. She look up to see Dabi.
"Welcome home, kid."
Hime smile at him, "I'm home!" She told them cheerfully.
Andrea hold the stick inside her mouth, looking at the inside of Hime's mouth. She wrote something in her notebook. She check her heart rate and blood pressure. She was just doing a normal check up on her.
"Okay, Love. It seems your healthier than a horse. Have you been drinking your vitamins?"
"One in the day and one in the night." Hime lied.
"Good." She look at her notebook. "Have your seizes been coming?"
Hime smile at her, "Nope!" Another lie. She knew that if she told her, she would complain and make her come back to homeschool where she can keep an eye on her. She didn't want that. She wanted to be in school. She wanted to be free from Andrea. She loves her but she smoothers her too much.
"Well that's good. Okay. You can get down now." She told her. Hime got off the stool. She head out to Sora where she was making lunch. Everyone sat down already waiting for the meal.
"Honestly, did you all came because I was going to cook." Sora complain.
"Yes, I'm too lazy to cook."
"Why do I put up with this?' Sora sigh. She place the stew in the middle. It look more like a hot pot. "Hime. Do you have time to eat?"
"Yeah sure. " Hime join them. Dabi threw pieces of bread at Fenrir. He jump around to catch them.
"Please don't feed the dog from the table."
Dabi did it again just to annoy Sora. She sigh at him. The food was pass around and everyone dig in.
"So, Hime. How is Siai Academy?"
Hime almost choke on her food. She took a hard swallow on her unchew food. "Oh, it's going great! My teachers are,..Um, interesting. (One of them sleeps during class time. One is so loud and annoying. The other one wears a sexy inappropriate outfits.) My classmates are super great. (Even though they keep they're distance from me. And they seem to be a bit nervous now they know I drink blood.) And club is doing splendid. (Its so stressful! We need members but no one wants to join in. I don't know what to do.) everything is great!"
"Club? What club?" Sora sound interested.
"Oh its the um support hero club. We um,.. heh, still getting new members."
"EEEH! Why didn't you tell me over our text!" Himiko puff her cheeks.
"Hehe, sorry."
"But this is a good thing. My darling Hime is in top of her class! Hehe, I'm sure your popular in your class."
"Hahahah! Yeah!" (No I am not! Everyone just run away because of my smile.)
Andrea heard a beep on her watch. She click her tongue in frustration.
"Bullocks." She grab her bowl and her drink.
"Huh? Where are you going."
"Sorry my dear. I'm in my time limit. I have work that needs to be research. I'll be downstairs if anyone needs me. Sora, can you have a note prepared for Hime."
"Yes ma'ma."
Andrea took her food and head downstairs to the basement. Hime always wonders what's down there but Andrea made it her one rule for her. Never to go downstairs. Hime didn't ask questions. She just let it be. Once she close the door behind her. Hime sigh.
"I don't know how much longer I can lie to her!" Hime's eyes turn white out of worry.
"Hehehe! It was pretty convincing!" Toga laughs.
"I thought I was going to slip." Hime cry.
"So how is it really. In U.A.?" Mr. Compress ask her. He took a sip to his tea. Hime look at him. She took a deep breath.
"Tiring! My teachers are insane! My classmates don't like me much! I think I'm going to have a panic attack now after what happened the other day."
"What happened?" Sora look worried.
"A fire almost started. Class 2-B from the hero course were part of the accident. Nobody knows what happen. They don't know how those chemicals got replace. Police are still investigating."
"I see. We're you part of that accident?" Sora narrows her eyes at her. Hime turn stiff a little. She look away from her.
"Um,..Noooooo!"
"Hime!"
"I um,..well.. hahaha, funny story!"
"Whaaaaaaaaat!" The house almost shook from them looking at her with mouths wide open. The only one who didn't look fazed by this was Dabi.
"That figures it." He said as he slurps the cold noodles.
"Huh?"
"You and that thing are always together. You even do things together as well. So not seeing him with you is kinda a first."
"Adam is a student in U.A... that's um.." Spinner try to find the right words. "Unexpected."
"Hehe, you think so? It was a shock to me as well but something change him once he took my place while being sick."
"Huh, and this club that your in? What's that about?" Twice ask her.
"Like I said, It's a hero support club. A strange girl ask me to be her lab partner."
"Gasp! Your Cheating on me!" Toga start to cry. "I thought I was your girlfriend!"
"EH!" Hime bug eye at her. "Wait a minute Himiko! It's not like that!" Hime try to calm her down. "Mei is a lab partner! She wanted to make this club so she can enter this contest."
"That sounds like a first name base!"
"Um well, she's the first friend I made in that school so yeah."
"I knew it! You are cheating on me!"
"what's her quirk?" Tomura ask her. He finished his food. Hime look at him with a smile.
"Her quirk is called Zoom. They work like binoculars. But she's really smart when it comes to building things. So far we've made a few weapons for the first years."
Toga grab Hime's cheeks and pull them apart angrily. Hime cry in pain.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Himiko!" Hime complain.
"I'm supposed to be your only friend!" She sound angry.
"Ow! Ow! You are!" She stop pulling her cheeks. "Well, besides Adam. You two are my only friends." Toga pull them again out of anger. Hime complain from the pain. After a few seconds, Toga mope in the corner holding Fenrir for a comfort.
"Fenrir, Your master is dirty womaniser like her idiot cousin."
"Don't compare me to Andrea!" Hime cry. She can still feel cheeks hot red. She rub them together to ease the pain. "Hmm, Mei isn't the only one. There's this boy who also join in. His name is Hitoshi Shinso. He can brainwashed people. Make them do his biting."
"Is that right?"
"Yeah, and surprisingly, His quirk doesn't work on me."
Tomura look interested in this. "Oh? Why is that?"
"I haven't seen his quirk work in action yet. But when I find out I'll let you know."
"So you have two in this club of yours?" Sora look at her.
"Well, Adam and Me are four. We need to get two more to even join the contest. I think its going to be more hard than I thought." Hime frown. "Oh!" Hime forgot to tell them. "There are some boys that knows about me."
They look at her in a bit surprised. More likely shock. They didn't think anyone would know her since they never bother to look for her. Hime smile gently at them as she say their names.
"Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo, we're in the same class together. As it turns out, we used to be childhood friends since I moved to London."
Tomura cover his smile from Hime. Out of all the people that she could be friends with. She somehow knows them, and they knew her. What were the chances? Oh how fate favours him right now.
"But,"
"But?" Tomura listens to her.
"There is this one boy. He kinda gives me the chills. He acts like he knows me and Andrea but he didn't seem to be too happy to see me."
"Heh, what, an old boyfriend that you broke his heart out." Dabi joke. Hime blush at him and thought about it.
"I-I..Don't joke about that."
"Eh! Heh, so I guess you are a little heart breaker."
"I am not!"
Spinner slams his fist at his the table. He look annoyed for some reason.
"The kid is there to learn. She's not there to date. And it's not like they're good enough for her. Besides, she's too busy with club and stuff. "
"Is this an act of parenting. Keep that up and you might grow grey hairs." Hime joke.
"Don't sass me." Spinner stuff the food in his mouth angrily.
"I don't know, I that a lock of grey hairs right there." Hime point at his bang. Spinner look at her with wide eyes. He run up to look at the mirrored look for that grey hair. He can hear Hime giggling. She place her plate in the sink. He look at her with a bit angry look. Hime grin at him.
"Thanks for the meal." She head to her room.
"That brat." Spinner grin a little but try not to show it.
The way to Hime's room is the side of the house. Opening a blue door leads to a brick stairway. The stairway goes in circle as you walk up. It was just about four stories high. From there is a black door with skeletons head and dark flowers painted on the door. Inside Hime's room is all glass. It was a light tower. She have her widows tape with cut up shape stars. She have them on her ceiling. The sun rays down on the tape paper to make stars coming down. She have black shelves that paint were coming off on the other side of her room. There were more animal bones that are place together to show off their body. She even have a few case box that is neatly placed with dead bugs. Even her creepy goth porcelain dolls were in the shelves neatly. Her other shelf carry books that she enjoy reading, horror, fantasy, sc-fi, and sciences books. Her telescope was still there, next to her paintings. She walk towards them and look through them. Some were a work in progress, others have improvement. Her room is much bigger then the living room in the dorm house. She saw her wooden closet dresser and went through it. She found her box of failed projects that she never went back to fix. Even her microscope was there and other test tubes that she used for a science projects that Andrea made her do. She sigh to herself.
"I know your there, Tom-tom." Hime said.
"Heh, nothing can pass through you. Dose it."
She grin at him gently, "I can hear the tap of your shoes while getting up here." She remind him. She found her tools in the box.
"What are you doing up here?"
"Looking for some things that I need for the club."
"Hmm, your serious about it."
"Of course I am. It's.. fun to finally have someone who have the same interests as me."
"Do you like it?"
"I do. You were right. That school is interesting and the classmates are okay."
"Just okay?"
"Okay, so I may have accidentally drank someone's blood."
"That explains the call."
"Heh,... you were right. Trusting people so easily is going to be my biggest mistake."
"SO they fear you?"
"Something like that. But its not that I haven't seen before. People are always afraid of me." Hime can feel his arms wrap around her shoulders. She blush bright red, "T-Tom-Tom!"
"You worried too much of what people think about you. If they fear you then used it against them. Used it as your own weapon."
"Heh, using fear against them? Never! If I do that, then they'll be right about me."
Tomura pull her close to him. Hime blush more. She place her hand on his arms. She close her eyes just a little. Lilies. I never new why he smell like lilies. But its sweet and soft. Gentle and warm. So strange. This scent, I have smell it before, haven't I? But where? Hime's vision became blurry, she can see a boy holding out his hand towards her. She widen her eyes. What was that?
"Something wrong?" He whisper in her ear.
"No, not really."
"Liar. Your not good at lying. Your left ear goes sideways when your hiding."
"When I drank that person's blood. I was... starting to remember something."
"Is your memory coming back?"
"... no. It's like someone cut off a piece of a film. It keeps playing in my head over and over again but never shows the rest. Pieces are missing and I can't seem to place them in the right shape. But, drinking his blood, it,... it reminded me of something. Something that I.... Tomura, have I,... killed someone before?"
His red crimson eyes stare at her golden eyes. He hold her tighter. Hime can feel his heartbeat against her back. It felt calm.
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"How can you be so sure?"
"I just know."
Hime nod to take his word. There were things she wanted to ask him but she wasn't sure if he have all the answers. She wanted to know but she just couldn't ask him. Her time at home must come to an end. She gather her box of things that she could used to detect on a little side project she must do.
"No fair! You just got here!" Toga complain.
"I promise to come back soon. And I'll bring Adam over."
"Hmp!" Toga sound angry. She already puff her cheeks.
"Here you go Lady Hime. I made a doctors note for your school. And a document for your nurse."
"Thank you Sora."
"I also made some snacks for you to share with your classmates."
"You didn't have to go that far." Hime told her.
"Nonsense, it would be rude of you to come back empty handed." She told her.
"Ah, right." Hime agreed.
"I'm going to miss you kiddo, No I won't your a little shit!"
"Language!" Hime scold Twice.
"Sorry, I'll curse whenever I want!"
"Hehe," Hime bow a little. She look at them with a smile. "Please continue to take care of Andrea. I know she can be a headache sometimes and bit annoying. But she means well." Hime head out, she look at them one more time. "I'll be back soon."
"Ah!" Sora sound happy.
"You sound in a better mood." Mr.compress told her.
"It's been a while since I saw her smile like that. It's rather, refreshing." Sora head towards the kitchen. "Ah! Where is Dabi? It's his turn to wash the dishes?"
"Dabi said he went out to buy some drinks."
"I see. Welp!" She push Spinner to the kitchen. "Come along now!"
"Huh! Why me!"
"Because you live here too!"
"But your the maid!"
Sora glare at him. She wrap her metal strings around and drag him to the kitchen.
"That woman is scary sometimes." Mr.Compress whispered.
Fenrir walk by his master's side till he bark happily. Hime look at him to see him jump on Dabi. He look at her with a small smile. He pat Hime's head and carry the box for her.
"Well? You ready or what?"
Hime smile at him with her cheeks blush. "Yeah!"
The two of them walk together, out of the Edges territory. They can see people sitting outside with burning barrels to keep them warm.
"You know you don't have to always walk with me."
"Hmp, I'll never hear the end of it from the Doc."
"Eh!" Hime try to tease him. They can hear someone yelling. The both of them stop to look.
"Grrr, what the hell old man! Is this all you got!"
"Please! That's all I have enough to eat for the next three days!"
"Tch!" The young man was taking his jacket away from him.
"No! Please! It's too cold."
Hime was ready to go but Dabi stop her.
"Come on. This isn't our fight!"
"But I just can't ignore him!"
"Kid!"
"You always told me that sometimes you have fight to make a stand." Hime look at him with her puppy dog eyes. He try to look away but he can still see her eyes begging. He finally gave up and sigh.
"Alright. Just make it quick before the pigs show up!"
Hime smile at him.
"Please!"
"Shut it old man!"
"Oi!" Hime yelled. The young man look at her with a cold glare. "Beating an old man, is a disgraceful act. Have you no shame!"
"Huh?! The hell! Mind your business, bitch!"
"I don't like that word!"
"Bitch!"
"Heh, better run." Dabi lean on the wall. "The kid hates rude people."
The man glare at Dabi but he grin as he look at Hime. He lean over, face to face.
"Bi..."
Hime under cut him, right to his chin. The man teeth slam right to tongue. The man scream in pain. Blood drip from his mouth.
"You stupid Bitch!" He cough. He felt a hard knee kick right to his cheek. He flew sideways and hit the ground hard. The man didn't dare to get back up.
"Kid! I think you knock him out cold!" Dabi told her.
"I know!" She sound irritated. She walk towards the out cold body and dig through his pockets. She found a handful of money that was enough to get meals for a month. She even took his clothes off.
"Not again kid!" Dabi sigh. Hime walk towards the old hungry man. She hand him the money and the clean clothes.
"You should never begg to people like him."
The old man hesitated for a bit but he took the clothes and money. He look at Hime but all he saw was her wicked scary smile. He scream and ran away from them. Hime mope by a light pole to only hear Dabi laughing his head off.
"That's not funny Dabi."
"Oh it's freaking funny!"
"No it's not!" Hime pout.
"Heh, I guess you still don't feel comfortable with people." He pat her head. Hime move her head away from his hand. She look over the man that she knock out. She begin to feel a little guilty. She cover him with his coat at least.
"Your going to show him mercy! Seriously, have we taught you nothing?"
"It's just,... People are still people. And, I would feel bad if he caught a cold."
"Your something else." He told her.
After a while, the both of them were in the station. Hime look at Dabi with a smile. "I'll text you when I'm in the dorms."
"Yeah whatever." He hands her the box. Hime smile at him. He look her as he dig into his pocket. "Close your eyes."
"Huh!? Why?"
"Just do it."
"If your going to put ice cube on me again, I'll be angry." Hime pouts.
"Just close them." He told her. Hime close her eyes. He move her bangs out of her eyes. Hime back a little but he stop her.
"Okay, open."
Hime open her eyes. She touch the hair pin, she can feel the bat shape at the tips of her finger. He blush a little at her. He avoid eye contact with her.
"I.. um.. didn't get you a congratulation gift."
Hime smile at him, she hug him in surprise. Dabi was still not used to this hug thing that Hime gives. He felt a bit anxious of hugging her back. Instead, he pat her head.
"Okay,... enough of this touchy feeling thing. Just, um,.. get on the train or you'll miss it."
"Heheh, I'll text you." Hime told him.
Dabi watched her get on the train. She wave at him as soon the door close between them. He watched the train slowly leave but hime was still moving, trying to wave him goodbye. He wave back just so she won't bump into a pole. He black his hoodie up to hide his face so more.
"You really have a soft spot for her." Sora stand next to him. He almost jump a little.
"Can you stop doing that!" He groan. "What are you doing here?"
"I was going to whack you with a newspaper since you ditch cleaning my dishes."
"Like i was going to do the dishes." He left her in the station but Sora follow him.
"I figured much. That's why Mr. Iguchi is cleaning them."
"Your an annoying woman."
"Thank you."
"Not a compliment." He told her. The both of them were walking back towards the light house.
Spinner grumble as he wash the dishes, "This sucks!" He complain. "You guys could at least help."
"If we do that, Sora would be in her kill mode again." Toga yelled in the living room as she read the teen magazine that her and Hime used to read together. "I miss Hime!"
"Hmm," Tomura grumble as he look at his chess piece to make a next move. He place his knight down and take mr. Compress pawn. "Check."
"Check mate." He took his knight away. Tomura look at the board. Then look back at him. "Hehe, looks like I win again old friend."
"Fudge!" He flip the chessboard out of spite.
"Two out of three?" Mr. Compress smile under his ski mask.
"I hate you."
"Don't pout boss. You suck at this game!"
"Knock, knock!" Giran came in holding a paper brown bag."The doc here? She wanted me to drop these off for her."
"Red lights on. No one goes in." Toga sigh. "I'm so board without my twin!" Toga complain more. "Maybe I should sneak in to the school and be a student there."
"Don't you dare, Toga." Tomura grumble at her.
"Giran, buddy old pal. You miss the kid! Late as always, asshole!"
"The kid was here? What for?"
"Doc was checking up on her. Normal, routine or whatever." Spinner yelled in the kitchen. " If you have something for the doc, just leave it in the table. I'm sure she'll be out in time."
Down in the basement, the computer red sign kept blinking. Andrea open her eyes to only see the flashing light saying download complete. She sat up from her operating table. She can feel her wires tugging on to her along with the computer. She sigh to herself, feeling charged but yet restless. She can hear the knock on the door.
"Doc! Its Giran. I brought the stuff that you need."
Andrea look at the time. She groan in her restless state. "Okay! I'll be up there." She yelled. Andrea groans as she had no choice but to uncharge herself as she checks on the computer to see how far along she was charged. Even though she was fully charged, she can't be restless at the moment as she goes upstairs to the door.
Hime open the door from the dorm house. She had no idea that it would take this long to get back to the dorms.
"I'm back!" She announce. She can hear running towards her. Her body bump to Mei's.
"Hime!" She sound happy.
"Eh!" She look at her surprised. Then Adam came along and hug her as well with his robot arms.
"Your not going to believe this!" Mei sound excited. She pull Hime to the other room before she could ask her why she's here at the dorms. In the study room there two students, students that Hime already know of. First year student in general studies, Yuie Lee. Next to her is the third year student from department of management, Rei Ito. Hime look at the both of them in confusion. Yuie blush really hard when she look at Hime.
"H-h-hello senpai." Yuie stutter as she look at her.
"Hola! Looks like we'll be seeing each other more for this school year." Ito told her.
"Eh? Why is that?"
Mei laughs, she smile at Hime, "They want to join the club!"
"Eh?....EH?" Hime yelled in surprise.
*Batty?!*
Morning have slowly came to wake everyone. They've gotten up like usual. Hime who was still in bed groan as her alarm ring. She ignore it by covering her head with a pillow.
"The least you could do is shut that thing up!" A soft child like voice told her.
"Ugh, If you don't like it why not turn it off your self." She told them under her pillow. The alarm wouldn't hush up. But Hime woke up with wide eyes. She sat up and shut the alarm. She look around in confused.
"Hello?' Hime look around. But the only ones that were there is Hel.
"Who are you talking to?" Hime look around in her room. She lower her eyes down at her cat who look irritated by waking up. She pick Hel up.
"Did you just talk?" Hime look at her cat. For a second she smile and laugh. "That's insane. Animals don't talk."
"Yeah I know. It would be weird if you can hear." Her cat start to laugh. Hime widen her eyes in shock. Her cat did the same. "Can you here?"
Hime nod her head slowly. Her cat stare at her. She scream, hime did the same. She push her cat away from her.
"Okay! Okay! Calm down," Hel told her.
"Stop talking!" Hime got out of her bed.
"No need to be rude!"
"Stop! Just stop!" Hime told her.
"Look, i know your freaking out. I'm freaking out."
"Shut up!" Hime told her.
Hime heard a knock on her door. "Hey, Hime. Are you okay?"
"Every thing is fine, Ashido." Hime lie.
"Is there someone in there." She sound concern.
"I was um, talking on the phone. I'll be down." Hime look at her cat.
She walk downstairs with Hel next to her. Fenrir look at Iida as he eats eggs and bacon.
"Give me your food. Give me your food. Give me your food. Give me your food." Fenrir drools by the smell of bacon. Hime try to hold in her nervousness of hearing her pets talk.She look at Koda who look worry. Even the girls were a bit concern.
"Come on, Hops. Its your favorite! You love carrots!" Koda sound worry.
"Ha! That's what you think! I hate carrots. Its all you ever give me. Carrots, carrots, carrots! Can you at least give me squash or some lettuce for once. I'm pooping orange over here."
"What's um, going on over there?" Hime ask them.
"Hops not eating. I'm starting to worry. Maybe i should take him to a vet."
"Vet! HAH! Vets won't find anything wrong with me. I just need you to change my diet. The cat and the dog eats better then me. At least their Human give them left overs while I'm stuck with this carrot. And take it easy with the pellets. I'm having a hard time using the bathroom."
"Um, why not change his diet." Hime ask him.
"What?" Koda look at her. Hops look at her surprise.
"Can you hear me?"
"Our human can talk to animals now!" Hel told him.
"Really! Quick tell him to give me lettuce, squash, and tomatoes!" He beg her.
"Um, maybe give hime some squash, lettuce, and tomatoes. Easy up a bit with the pellets."
"OH my God! She can understand me."
"Since when you became a vet?" Bakugo pour a glass orange juice.
"It was a suggestion. I don't give my pets that nasty dry food."
"You should!" Iida scold her. "The more you feed them these type food, the more they refuse to eat dry food."
"Yeah, that's why Fenrir is loving the dry food you got him." Hime pick up his bowl and threw the food away. "Don't feed my pets that garbage. Ever, again." Hime warn him. Koda cut up some vegetables for his bunny. He saw that he was eating it.
"It work!" Koda sound happy. He felt relief to see his pet eating again. "How did you know?"
"Um, ... a guess."
"Hehe, just tell them you can talk to us." Hel told her. Hime ignore her and went to make breakfast for her and left over scrap for her pets. She look at her pets and Koda's bunny getting along but she just wish she can unhear them now.
"Now my brothers and sister!" Hops told them, "It's time for the animal revolution!"
"Oh boy," hime sound worry.
"You okay!" Shinso ask her.
"Yeah, fine. Just super excited about today!" Hime lie. "New club members."
"Oh right."
Everyone was ready to go to class, Hime stood behind for a little to look at the animals.
"Okay, listen up." She look at them. "I'm keeping this a secret. Nobody needs to know and they well never know about me talking to you guys. Got that!"
"What did she say!" Fenrir look confused.
"As long you don't tell them about my animal revolution." Hops warn him.
"Want me to tell Koda to give you carrots for now on."
"have a good day at school." Hops told her cheerfully.
"Come back home so we can play!" Hel told her.
"Seifuku, come on!" Shinso's told her. He look at her confused, "What are you doing?"
"Um, nothing." Hime follow him to head out to class. Hime follow her classmates to head out to class. The day grew more weird then before. Shinso, Hime and Adam look at Aizaw and shock. It was just the three of them to be in extra class to catch up.
"Right, so. Seifuku, Present Mic will be teaching you with your screech. Shinso, your with me. Adam, you'll be with Nezu."
"Since the three of you are far behind!" Nezu pop out of Aizaw's scarf. "We have been watching what you young students have been lacking. By that, you'll be with the teachers and work on what your lacking."
"I see, in other words, you pair us up with teachers who have similar traits as our quirks, in order for us to get better with physical strength." Hime hold her chin.
"That is correct. Not only did you three enter the hero course at a late stage, we want to prepare you for out of class training session that you'll be doing along side with your teachers."
"Eh?" They look at the three confused.
"We're taking you three in as sidekicks as part your grades. Not only that, it'll help gain experience on what you three miss out on last years training sessions. Since everyone, among your class already have their licences. They have already gain some experience outside of training session." Aizaw explain.
Adam: 🧐 🤔🏫?
"He wants to know about school sessions! Well this interrupt our studies?" Hime ask them.
"Not at all ladies and gents!" Mic took the floor. "We'll be giving you kids a after school tutorial to help you guys catch up. No need to worry."
"But we do need to have you two come up with a hero outfit and hero names." Aizawa told them tiredly as he yawn. "Mic and Midnight well discussed that with you." He was already in his sleeping bag taking a nap.
"Where does he place that thing at?" Hime ask her friends in confusion. Midnight came in walking with her hips back and forth.
"Let's start off with some hero names for you kids." She hand them markers and boards. "Your hero name have to be catchy, appropriate, and friendly." She winks at them. The bell rang before they could even start. "You can hand me your hero names in three days. But hey, no pressure."
"That's all for now!" Mic raise up his voice to make it sound like he was singing.
Hime stare at the board blankly, thinking of what hero name can she used. Batgirl? No, too original. White bat? Nah, too plain. Banshee? Would be cool if I can used my screech without getting seizures.Hime stare at the board blankly, thinking of what hero name can she used. Batgirl? No, too original. White bat? Nah too plain. Banshee? Would be cool if I can used my screech without getting seizures.
Hime stare at the board hard with her eyes. She couldn't think of a name that she likes. Mie place her tray down, sitting across from Hime.
"Hey lab partner!" She smile at her.
"Hmm."
Shinso sits down as well, placing his tray on the table.Adam cubbles up to him like a cat.
Adam: ✌️👯
Shinso raises an eyebrow at this but say nothing as he looks down his tray.
Mei looks at the two with a bit frustration. "You guys!" She puff her cheeks.
"Eh?" Hime looks up at her. "Did you say something?"
"What now?" Shinso looks up.
"we need to think about our new baby that are we're going to make! Now that we have all six members in our group and a third year to take the lead. We need to plan ahead!" Mei told them as she stuff a salad in her mouth.
"Mei's right." Hime sip her blood red tea. "We need to think about the competition too."
"But also keep the school's budget." Ito came to sit with them. It was still hard to believe that he's a third year student and a boy.
"Hmmm." Shinso takes a bite out of his lunch as he noticed the hard board Hime has.
"what!" Mei complain. "But we need to make it big! Something that says pick us for first place!" Mei sounds happy, visualize of the invention she wants to make.
"You clearly don't see how dangerous it could be." Ito took out a calculator. "If we make this big and fancy, it'll cost a fortune. Plus due the amount of testing, repairs, and possibly your mess up explosions that could lead us all to death. The school is putting this on a short budget."
"Eeeeeeh!" Mei was now sad.
Hime however didn't pay much attention to them. She can hear them arguing about it but she was now more concern of hero name. She haven't thought of a hero name. She didn't think she would make it this far.
"Your thinking about it too, hm?" Shinso says to Hime.
"yeah. To be honest, I didn't think I was going to make it this far." Hime look at the board.
Mei buts in, "Thinking about what? Making a new baby!?"
"Our hero names." Shinso says as he takes another bite out of his food.
"Why do you have to word things out like that?" Hime blush.
"Oh!" Mei sound bored. "That's not interesting at all."
"Heh," Hime chuckle a little but she look at the board. "Still though. I haven't thought of one. I didn't think I need one so soon."
"Hmph. Well, it was coming sooner or later." Shinso sits back in his chair and looks at her.
"yeah I guess." Hime sigh. She can feel a head but by Adam. "Aaah! Adam!" Hime looks at him.
Adam:🤨👉🦇 💪👩🎓👩🔬👩🔧😊
"Heh, thank you. But have you two thought of hero names?"
Shinso shrugs and said nothing.
"Adam?"
Adam moves everyone's tray out of the way. He start to play something in his small radio.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please place your hands together" drums were rolling. "Anx!"
Once again, Shinso raises an eyebrow, "Interesting"
"like from the car stereo?" Ito raise his eyebrows up.
"Why Anx?" Mei questions. Adam look at them. He run up to Hime to comfort him.
"Aw, adam. They don't hate it. Right?"
"Seems fine to me. Anything can be meaning to it or what not. It's the hero name he wants." Shinso says as he looks over at Adam slightly.
Adam: 😲😭🙂
Adam runs up to Shinso for some cuddles as a thank you. He rub his metal head up against his. Hime cover her smile to hide her laughter. Mei smiles and Ito chuckles.
Shinso sighs as he lets Adam do what he wants.
"huh, really unusual for a machine to act Human." Ito sips his drinks. "let alone that it's a student of all things."
"He!" Hime sound annoyed.
"Huh?" Ito looks at her.
Mei grabs Ito by the collar, "Yeah, one other thing. Hime doesn't like it when you insult Adam like that! So call him by his name or a he."
"Huh, why?"
"Because he's more than just a 'machine'. He's Adam, not a toy." Shinso says as he glared at Ito for a minute.
Hime have a goofy smile on her. It was almost cat like.
"Ugh! Move it freak!" One of the third year girls slap Lee's tray out of her hand. The other girl "pump" into her, hiding it from a push.
"I-i-i um.. s-s-.."
"S-s-... Learn to talk right." The third year told her.
"Looks like they're at it again."one of the students told his friend.
"I feel bad for that first year. Looks like she's the new target for them."
Lee stand there and take the insults without any compliment. Hime gets up out of frustration. She grab someone's cup of juice. She tap the third years shoulder.
"What!" She growl at her. Hime pour down the purple drink right down on her. The third year gasp in surprise. "Aaaah! My hair!" She walk away to clean herself up the other two girls rush with her out of the cafeteria.
"Y-y-you d-d-d-idn't h-have t-t-to do that!" Lee shyly push her glasses up.
"I have no idea what you mean!" Hime grab her hand and pull her to the table. "I was simply taking taking the trash out." Lee look at her in surprise. She sat her down at the table she was sitting. Hime slide her lunch box towards Lee. She look at her as Hime sips her tea.
"Now then, should we discuss about our design of our um.." Hime blush, "Baby."
Mei smile goofy at her. "I was thinking of building a cool battle armor! Something that can shoot guns
No! A ray! No, Nets! No, explosions!" Mei was writing down ideas.
"I told you Ms. Hatsume, we need to watch out our budget! Not only that, we have to buy our own products. We're not allowed to used anything from our school nor ask teachers for help." Ito told her with a small scolding.
"Ooh! How about a huge body tank that can crush everything in its path."
"Are you,.. can you talk some sense into her?" He look at Shinso and Hime. Shinso shrug, he didn't pay no mind into this. Hime was grinning but it was awkward, almost as if she was trying to grin but it look more cat like. Ito sigh in disbelief.
"The big question is, where are we going to the material and how much it's going to cost?" Hime ask them.
"Oh, good question." Mei thought it through. "Hmmm, I could ask Powerloader."
"I um,..." Lee shyly blush. "Kn-kn-know a p-place."
"You do!" Mei sound excited.
Lee blush bright red, She shyly nod her head. "W-w-we can go t-today."
"I'm free." Ito told them.
"I suppose I can take some time of studying." Hime told them.
"I'm free!"
"Call me when you guys get the stuff." Shinso was ready to leave but Adam wrap his metal arms around him like rope, "What the!"
"We have a deal Shinso!" Hime still have her weird grin. "You agree to help us while I help you train."
"... why did I agree to this." Shinso sound disappointment. He can feel his back shiver to see the sinister eyes from Hime and Mei. "I'm not going to like this. Am I?"
"Nope!" The girls smile.
"Great! Now that's settled. I'll ask the teachers for permission to leave the premises."
Once school was over, the club have permission to leave the school. Everyone was waiting for Hime to meet them in the school gate. Lee have ask them to meet them at her house. Hime ran to call them with Bakugo and Midoriya by her side. Fenrir was also tagging along with his service pet vest on. Everyone seem to wear their casual clothes. Hime wore her black hooded sweatshirt that said horror chick with a bloody knife that hold the sign and dark jean shorts. She even place her hair in a ponytail with black bat wings holding her hair. But it look wet, as if she got out of the shower.
"Sorry I'm late!" Hime told them, "I ask these two for some help."
"The hell long ears you said this was important!" Bakugo growl.
"It is! We need help carrying some stuff for our club."
"I don't think we need his help, Seifuku." Shinso told her.
"Puffy hair is right!"
"My hair is not puffy."
"Whatever, I'm not gonna stick around with a bunch of extras!"
"Kaachan! We can help!"
" oh I should have known." Him sigh in disappointment.
"What!" Bakugo look at her.
"You can't carry anything heavy, huh? That explains those fake muscles. They're just fat!" Hime turn to her club members with a wink. Midoryia felt nervous where this is going.
"What did you say?" Bakugo sound angry.
"I mean, there is no shame of it. It's okay. I'm sure you can't carry anything heavy besides your ego."
"Me-me. We don't want to die today!"
"Are you saying I'm weak!"
"What! Nooo. I'm saying you don't want to feel embarrassed about picking up anything heavy because you have no physical strength. Which is fine. We're not all like Sato, Shoji, or Kirishima. "
"You think I don't have what it takes."
"Maybe we should ask Uraraka. At least her quirk is more useful."
"ROUND CHEEKS!" Bakugo yelled.
"Oh boy." Midoriya already felt nervous.
"Sure why not."
"Okay, Okay!" Bakugo feels frustrated. "I'm going to carry way more junk then all of you! I'm going to make you eat those words long ears!" Bakugo rush ahead of them out anger and frustration. Hime grin at herself. Shinso look at her with a please look.
"You used reverse psychology on him."
"Works every time." Hime walk ahead of them with a happy grin that look creepy. She lightly tug on Fenrir's leash to let him know that she was moving.
Lee can hear her father screaming at her. She try to ignore him by placing her earphones on. She can see her mother arguing with her father. She try to ignore it, she look at the time to know that her club members we'll be here anytime soon.
"Yuie!" Her father yelled at her. "Don't you walk away from me!"
"Just let her be!" Her mother argue.
"I'm not letting them walk out of this house looking like that!" He scream at his wife.
"C-c-can I g-go now!"Yuie look at her mother.
"Be back around 10 at least." Her mother told her.
"Your going to let them leave, dress like that!"
"Just leave her alone! She feels comfortable wearing that!"
"Don't do that!"
"Do what!"
"That! You keep calling Yuie a ..."
Yuie slam the door behind her. She sign to herself. She wanted to leave but she had to wait. She felt a cold metal surface touch her forehead. She look up to see Adam.
Adam:🙃
She look over to see everyone waiting for her by the gate. She smile at them happily. Yuie walk down the steps to be with her new friends. Everyone follow Yuie to where she was talking about. Turns out it's a old junkyard that she used to go to with her brother. She knows the owner pretty well so they'll be able to get a discount on the materials they'll need.
"Four-eyes!" Bakugo sound board as they sat in the train.
"Eh!" Yuie look at him nervously.
"Aren't you going to have a hard time moving around in that long ass skirt?"
"I...um.." Yuie blush bright red.
"Bakugo, Don't be rude!" Hime scold him. "If Yuie wants to be cute let her be cute. Woman shouldn't be discriminated based on what they wear. They should let their inner beauty take over and give them the confidence they need."
"I wasn't disc.... I just thought she'll have a hard time if she trips over looking for what ever the heck you nerds are looking for!"
"Um.. I.. um.." Yuie choke on her words. "I.. GOT REALLY EXCITED THAT I WAS GOING TO HANGOUT WITH PEOPLE!" She scream. She look shock in herself. Her face turn bright red. She cover her face to hide her embarrassment.
"Heheh, she's kinda funny!" Hatsume laughs.
"Hmmm! Please don't look at me!" Yuie ask them.
Adam: 😖😤😖😤 "take deep breathes. Let all your inner negativity let go from the mind."
"Eh?" Yuie look up at Adam.
Adam:😉 "Just. Be. Yourself."
"Adam's right, Lee!" Hime told her. She look over at Hime who have a gentle smile. She was shock to see her smile like this. "All you have to do is be yourself. If no one can accept it, they are not worth of your friendship. Besides, I am more surprised that you join the club."
"Eh!"
"What made you wanted to join?"
"I um,..eeeeeh!" Yuie turn red again.
Adam:🤖👈👉👱♀️ 🤝
"You make friends easily, don't you Adam?" Hime sound irritated.
Adam:😏✌️
"Eh, aren't they your friends?" Yuie ask shyly. Home look at everyone who was sitting in front of them. Home hold her chin up to think.
"THE HELL AREN'T YOU SAYING ANYTHING!?"
"Right now Hatsume is probably the Only friend I have ever made. Hito, I'm working my way with him. Bakugo is someone I like to talk to once in a while when we're alone. Midoryia, hmmmm."
"Eh! Are we not friends at all!" Izuku sound hurt.
"Yes, I wonder?" Hime hold her chin and begin to wonder.
"Eeeeh!" Izuku burst into tears. "That's a bit cruel Me-me!"
Hime look at him with a chuckle. The announcement on the train mention the next stop. Yuie gets up from her seat, "Th-th-this is us!"
It didn't take long for everyone to see the junkyard. Yuie shyly walk up to a small blue cabin house. A woman who look a bit hulky with mucles glare at them. She look a bit old in her mid 30's. She have shoulder length gray hair. Her eyes are brown. Her right arm his cover in tattoos. She even have two tattoos on her fingers that look like rings. She wore baggy overall pants with a white tank top shirt. She look at Yuie with a shock, happy smile. She pick her up and circle around.
"Yu-chan!"
Yu-chan!
Oh! That's one handsome lady!
"Um, h-h-hi M-maka-sama!"
"Hmm, my. You brought guest over?" Maka look at the club in surprised.
"W-w-we wanted to um.."
"We came to buy some babies!" Mei sound happy.
"Eh?"
"Ha-Hatsume!" Yuie blush.
"We were hoping to buy some parts here in a cheap price for our school project!" Ito sigh.
Maka blink at them in surprised. She let them in to check around the back. Hime fly above to have a look around. Mei and Adam search through cars and electronic supplies to used as parts. Maka sat on her rocking chair petting Fenrir calmly.
"So, what are we looking for exactly?" Shinso ask Mei.
"Something that isn't broken and is still useful." Mei zoom her goggles to take a closer look at a small radio.
"Um, Hatsume, is this useful?" Midorya pull out a robot arm.
"Yeah! Place it in the box." Mei yelled out. Midoryia hand the arm to Yuie who place a few things in the box that look rather helpful.
"Hey long ears! Mind giving us a hand!" Bakugo yelled at Hime who was flying in circles. She flew off in a different direction. Bakugo grew angry at her. He wave his hand in the air and yelled. "YOU LAZY FLYING RODENT! GET DOWN HERE AND HELP!"
"She is helping!" Mei told him as she pull out a chip from on of the computers. "She's looking for something that might be useful to us." They heard a loud scream. Everyone ran towards the scream to see Hime running towards them.
"What!" Bakugo can see the shock expression. She look speechless and excited. She stomp her feet and point at something. She pull Mei towards a pile of junk that have a cover over it. She pull the cover happily.
"It's a Peacemaker!" She yelled.
"A what?"
"AAAAAH!" Mei yelled happily. She look at the old design. It's in good shape. Everything was still intact. It have a few dents and rusted parts but the thing still look good.
"Oh. My. Gosh! I only saw these in history books!"
"Isn't beautiful!" Hime squeal. "We have to take it."
"The hell is that thing?" Shinso look lost.
Ito took a look at it to see a military symbol on its metal chest. "Peacemakers. They were built back in 1930's. Around world war 2. The same time that quirks appear."
"Actually quirks have always appeared in the human history back in the dark ages where they call people witches and demons. That were highly the only explanation for them to understand. science was mistaken as witchcraft. Salem witch trials, unexplained disappearance, demonic possessions and you guys are looking at me." HIme close her mouth right away.
"Anyway, back in the 1930's they made these to kill off the state enemy ." Ito explain. "It would have lead them to victory."
"Hmm," Hime look at him with a unsettling expression.
"Do you have something to add."
"Yes, but no. Your the senpai." Hime try to close her mouth but she wanted to correct him.
"Are you saying my history is wrong?"
"They really design these back in the 1900's but they didn't used them till the 1930's. But it wasn't in war time. It was a time that people have shown genetic mutations. They used them to sight quirk users."
"Why?" Midoryia look at her.
"To kill them." Mei told them. "It was how they can take control over society. That's when the human rights program put a stop to these. It was then they destroy these machines. Can't believe we found one in good shape too."
"I know right! Let's take it undone!" Hime sound excited.
"Wait a minute, " Mei stop her. "Let's think this through."
"But we can used the parts." Hime suggested.
"We can, but have you forgotten something?" Mei lean towards her and mover her head to face Adam who was looking through the junk till a lamp shade drop in his head. "We could redesign it and make Adam's new hero body like we plan."
"Brilliant Mei!" Hime sound excited. She grin cat like at her.
"Hold up!"Shinso sound concern. "You want to used that thing that used to hunt down and kill people who have quirks and transform it to a hero body weapon."
The girls look at each other and grin at him, "Yes."
"Fuck it, lets take it." Bakugo pull the legs but the chest pop open with a raccoon running away from them. Mei nearly jump screaming at it.
"Kill it! Kill it!" She hold on to Yuie.
'Dam noisy kids. Can this old geezer sleep in peace! It was so dam quiet when that human left.' The raccoon hiss at them.
"Sorry!" Hime yelled at the raccoon.
"Phew, that is quiet the haul you kids got there!" Maka told them.
"Hehe, we found some really good stuff!" Mei sound happy.
"Thank you Maka-sama. How much is that going to be?"
"For you kids, i won't go lower then 65 dollars."
"Wow! Seriously!" Ito sound shock.
"But that peace of junk you got there." She pointed out the peacemaker that Shinso, Midoryia, and Bakugo were holding.
"55,000 dollars."
"What!" They complain.
" Why so much?" Ito complain.
"Because, that thing is illegal. I'm not supposed to have that thing here. Let alone, let you kids have it. If I'm gonna go down, I'll make it worth may time."
"So your selling an illegal stuff to a bunch of kids that you have no idea what they are going to used it for?" Ito raise his brow at her.
"Look, I don't want to go to jail for you kids. No offense Yu-Chan. But I'm not letting it go down."
Adam:🤔 "Because, that thing is illegal. I'm not supposed to have that thing here. Let alone, let you kids have it. If I'm gonna go down, I'll make it worth may time." Adam replay the quote to her again till she knows that he record her voice.
"Hmm," Ito grin with a sinister look, "The police wouldn't like that. Especially knowing that you made an offer. Adam, replay the price please."
Adam:🤑 "But that piece of junk you got there, 55,000 dollars."
"How would they react to know that you have this highly military weapon in your possession. Hmmm?"
"Ito-senpai what are you doing?" Midoriya whisper at him.
"Are you Black mailing me?" Maka glare at him.
"You say blackmailing, I say, it was a pleasure doing business with you, Señora." He grin at her.
"And If I say no?' She cross her arms at them.
Ito grin at her, he start to walk in the middle of her backyard. He inhale his breathe, "AAAH Dios mio! HELP! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! AAAAH! OW! OW! OH GOD, PLEASE!"
Maka look at him with wide eyes. She run up to Ito to cover his mouth, "Are you trying to get me in trouble.
"You would have a hard time to explain your parole officer."
"Excuse me?" Maka didn't like his smart remark.
"Your tattoos!" Ito pointed out. "I noticed a few of of them. The diamond ring tattoo, shows that you were hostile towards the law. The cross means you gain leadership at prison. And your five dots. Heh, must I say more."
"So what! You got no proof."
"Oh but my fair lady I do. If I pull up your pants. Would there be a house arrest bracelet attached?"
Maka glare at him and let's him go. She grumble at herself walking back at her porch, " you got one hell of a annoying friend there, Yu-Chan." Ito fix his collar and smile happily. She look at them and grumble, "fine! Get that thing out of my sight! But you don't tell anyone where you got that from. Got it!" She yelled at them.
"Yahoo!" Mei sound so happy. "We didn't have to pay so much! We got it for free!" She sing her words happily and did a small dance. " we got some stuff! We're going to make some things! We gonna win!"
"Ms. Hatsume, instead of playing around you could at least help us with some of these boxes!" Ito sound irritated. He and the boys have to carry the Peacemaker that Maka wrap in a box. The machine's extremely heavy. All four of them have a hard time picking it up.
"Grrr, put your back into you dam Deku!"
"I am!" Izuku yelled at him.
"Why don't we just leave the thing! It's not like we really need it!" Shinso complain.
"Um, m-maybe w-we should help them!" Yuie offer a hand.
"It's fine, Yu-Chan! The boys can handle it!" Mei call her by her nickname. She wrap her arms around with hers and start dragging her. "Now, off to the hardware store!"
"For what!" Bakugo complain. "You got everything you need!"
"We need tools." Hime remind them. She carry two boxes of whatever junk they could find. Adam hovers around, playing with Fenrir.
"Can't you just used the tools at schools?" Midoryia sound out of breath.
"We could but Powerloader made a rule where Mei can't used them unattended." Hime told them.
"Hey Guys! Let get a slushy!" Mei sound happy.
"A what?" Hime tilt her head.
"A slushy! Don't tell me you never had one?"
"I.." Hime blush a little, "I don't recall of ever drinking one before."
"Heheheh, I know a place we're we can get Slushy and tools. Come one!" Mei pulls on Hime and Yuie to follow her. This was the first time Hime have ever been out with anyone that isn't with Andrea or her companions. It's always them that we're with her all the time. Hime can feel her head going buzzy. She can see a small group of kids around her age, running in the street laughing. Hime snap out of it, what was that?
"Come on! You guys are falling back behind!" Mei yelled.
"YOU COULD AT LEAST HELP US WEIRD EYES!" Bakugo yelled.
Mei slurps on her blue slushy while carrying a small box. The boys wanted to take a break but they can see the girls walking ahead of them. Ito whose carrying the box from the bottom.
"Can't you perhaps help us?" Ito sound out of breathe. He couldn't hold it any longer with his small tiny hands.
"I am helping!" Mei said as she slurps in her red slushy.
"He meant, help us with this thing!" Bakugo groans.
"Um, maybe we can..Aah!" Mei wrap her shoulders on Yuie.
"Nah! The boys can take it!" She smile at them.
"Damit dreadlocks! Come help us!" Bakugo yelled at her.
"Can we at least rest!" Izuku complain.
Adam try to help them but even he couldn't pick up the weight. Adam:😨😱😵
Hime couldn't stand it anymore. She hand Yuie her box and pick up the box for the boys. They look at her with wide eyes in shock.
"That thing weights more than 300 pounds!" Shinso told her.
"Oh! Um,.. hahahah. You guys must be bent out of shape!" Hime laughs nervously. That was a lie. Earlier at the dorm, she end up breaking her bathroom sink by accident. Hime didn't think she would have such strength. Not without drinking blood to help her build up stamina. But this was different. She lift up the box without a problem. It felt weightless to her. She should have been more careful about this. She still have no idea why she was able to do any of this. "Well? We have to hurry before curfew, right?" Hime ask them.
"Um yeah!" Izuku look at her in surprise. Yuie look at her in surprise as well. She couldn't help but look at Hime with her cheeks blush. She was too busy in a daze to notice her bag was snatched.
"Hey!" She yelled at a small girl who was running away from them.
"Hey! Get back here!" Bakugo used his quirk to catch the small thief in the crowd
"Kaachan! We're not allowed to used our quirk in public!" Izuku ran after him.
"Hold up you two!" Shinso and the rest of the gang went after them. Hime took the air for the chase. The little girl was a bit happy to get something for once. She look back to see Bakugo chasing after her. The girl look scared to him using his quirk. She gave him a slip up as she slides between two woman. Bakugo fall back. The girl grin from her slick escape. She ran forward but fell back, she saw Hime slam a big box in front of her to stop her. The girl look scared . She can see Hime's scary golden eyes. They look intimidating and deadly. The young girl froze by the look in Hime's eyes.
"Huff, great,,... huff.. job.. huff, hah!" Mei sound out of breath. "Huh! I'm really out of shape!"
Hime glare at the little girl and snatched the stuff back from her.
"Hey! Give me that! That's mine!" The girl yelled at her.
"Shitty little brat!" Bakugo yelled at her, he was ready to pound her but Hime slap her on her cheek. That surprise everyone.
"Me-me!" Izuku yelled at her. "You can't just slap her!" The girl look at Hime in shock. She grew angry and slap Hime back. Izuku bug his eye out. Hime slap her back but harder.
"What is wrong with you!" The girl told her. She felt another hard slap from Hime.
"Me-me!" Izuku yelled at her. The girl look at Hime with a angry frown. She begin to cry and run up to Izuku.
"A child like you shouldn't be stealing! Now go apologize to Yu-Chan!" Hime scold her.
"Me-me! You shouldn't have hit her."
"Then she shouldn't be stealing! Especially for someone her age!" Hime told him.
"That's no excuse for slapping her!" Izuku try to calm her down. "There, there! Me-me didn't mean it!"
The girl kept crying. Even Yuie try to calm her down.
"Hey! It's okay! Look, I'm not mad! Just don't do that again."
"Did you had to slap her?" Shinso ask her.
"I do not regret my decision of punishment!" Hime told him with her hands behind her back. "A young lady should never steal or beg. She should never lower her pride down for something so meaningless."
"Heh, I guess but you shouldn't slap her."
"Say what you must. She should be happy that I'm not taking her to the police."
A young man with a leather jacket was waiting for Stacy by a nearby corner. She was supposed to meat him here once she was done with her job. But he saw a small group in a way. He can also see Stacy crying in some boy's arm. He have to go over there and make a rescue escape for her. He place his black shades on to hide his face. He comb his black slick hair hair back.
"Hey! What the hell are you doing with my sister?"
"This shitty brat is yours!" Bakugo glare at him.
"What you did to my lil sis punk!" He lightly push him off.
"Did you place your hand on me!" Bakugo was now irritated.
"What if I did!" He push him back.
"That's it! He's dead!" Bakugo growl at him.
Adam try to hold him back. But the boy in the leather jacket didn't make it better. He was starting his mess with Bakugo.
"Kaachan! Stop!" Izuku try to hold him back.
"Oh that's cute, need your boyfriend to help you!"
"Graaah!" Bakugo was ready to used his quirk at him. The boy made things worst. Hime pull both of their ears to stop.
"Aaaaah! Dam it long ears!" Backugo yelled.
"What the fuck!"
"Language!" Home yelled at them. "Using quirks, fighting in public streets! Bakugo! Your a U.A student! Act like you have manners! And you! Control your stinger! She's taking things that don't belong to her!"
Home lets the both of them go.
"The fuck Hime! Did you have to pull my ear! I'm not a fucken child!"
"Then stop acting like one!"
"Grrraaaah!"
"Only child scream like that!" Hide scold him. Bakugo wants to yelled at her but he hold in his anger. The boy in his leather Jacket look at Hime in shock. He took off his glasses to show off his brown eyes at her. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Hime turn to him with her eyebrows raise.
"Hime?"
"Yes?"
"Hime!" He place his hands on her shoulder. She look surprised.
"Yes!"
"Hume! Hime! Hime Seifuku!"
"Yes! Who are you?" Hume now sound scared. The boy place his hand on her cheek. Hume look at him in surprise. But she was even more shock to feel his lips on hers. Everyone look at the two in shock. Bakugo drop his mouth down. The boy pull away and blush.
"Batty!"
