When the news of Hawks planning to pull you out of work got to you, your shift had already ended. Around 7 in the evening is when Yukiko finally stuck a needle in your neck to wake you up.

Now, here you sit with a signed non disclosure in your lap hardly able to comprehend what you are being told by your black and blue haired co worker as you sit upright underneath the white sheets of your medical bed.

"I don't understand, why does a pro hero want to pull me out of work?"

A pro hero named Hawks of all people. He did say he might make you his personal healer but this isn't exactly what you had in mind.

"He probably just wants to get into your pants if you ask me." Yukiko crosses her arms leaning against a clean bed next to you.

Get into my pants, yeah right. Hawks has access to a multitude of girls, gays, and theys. Like hell he'd choose me out of the bunch right off the bat.

Bandage vocalizes for the first time since you woke, "Or! He sees potential in you to become a pro hero yourself."

Oh hell no! I'm not going out during the day!

"I am a pro hero...well, sort of. I go on night patrols with my mentor Status. We stay in the shadows to avoid the press. Locals know about me and that's it. I like it that way."

It's true, going out in the daylight where the news can bring attention to you makes you nervous. You don't want to be seen, you just want to be a faceless healer. Someone who gets the job done incognito.

"Well then you should tell him that. Keep in mind, if you do, that means you turned down the number 3 hero along with a huge opportunity."

Yeah, a huge opportunity to offer myself up to the chopping block by every Hawks fan in existence! No thanks! I'm good!

"I'm a female! If fangirls see me with him they'll assume we're together, together. I'll never forget the outrage his fans had the day he was spotted with a female intern." You shiver at the memory of hateful comments you read full of threats to kill the poor intern, she was only doing her job.

The room is silent for a moment as you, Yukiko, and Bandage try to decode Hawks' intentions. Guys are simple, right? He might just want me as his healer. Plain and simple.

Yukiko blows her gum into a bubble and pops it, collecting the sugar elastic in her mouth while lost in thought. After a few silent chews she shakes her head, "He wants you for some sort of personal benefit–"

Bandage jolts up his pointer finger, cutting off Yukiko. You both look at him, ready to listen. "He might want to recruit you for special missions in the future so he needs to prepare you beforehand."

Missions? Prepare? The idea makes your butt squeeze and your guts churn. This is all too much, why did you even get this job? Maybe you should just go back to your day hobbies and night patrols. Life was so much easier that way, boring, but in a good way....Then again, you kind of like how life is here.

Ever since you started working at the agency it almost feels like your life has so much more meaning. Almost as if you're meant to do something, like you have a purpose. If you walk away now...

"Will you guys be fine when I'm gone?" You can't help but feel concerned for your co workers if you leave for several hours or even days at a time.
