"What did you say? Villains appeared? Don't worry, I can head there right now." Manual turned to his intern, "Stay with me. We're running." The pro took off with the UA student in tow, heading for the street they'd been called to.
Iida quickly followed Manual, the gears in his mind turning.
Couldn't be...this is different. That murderer wouldn't be so flashy.
Iida stopped as Manual kept running, now fixated on something else. His eyes were trained on the dark alleys that lead into a maze behind buildings. Too many perfect areas to slip away into, with dark corners to hide in, perfect for an ambush. Iida's eyes widened as he realized where he was. Face tightening, the hero in training took off down an alley, abandoning his post with Manual.
He's here. I know it! In the back alleys, that's where he attacked the heroes. That's where he attacked Tensei. I'll find you Hero Killer, and I'll make sure you never have the chance to hurt anyone like my brother again!
I'm trusting you. And I don't want to regret it.
Iida's face tensed as his eyes trained on an alley.
I'm sorry senpai.
He rounded the corner, eyes narrowing, he leapt for the Hero Killer.
I can't forgive someone who's hurt someone I care about. Don't you understand?
He readied his first strike.
Weren't you hurt by a villain too?
The Hero Killers blade swung, knocking Iida's helmet off. He crashed to the ground. Fires roared somewhere in the distance, tonight's hell was beginning.

Kija warped herself away from a Nomu's punch—there were NOMU here?!?—and dashed towards a burning building with people trying to clamor down a fire escape. Noir charged for the Nomu behind her, assisting another hero to distract it from Kija.
Whirring her Quirk to life, Kija warped herself up next to the people on the building, two men in suits who must've been staying late to finish work. One of them stopped trying to kick the fire escape ladder open, and instead the two gaped at Kija.
She held out her hand, "I'm with the heroes, are either of you hurt?" She asked, calm and direct.
The two men were shaking, but they shook their heads, "N-no," One stuttered.
Kija eyed the building, her Quirk wasn't picking up anyone else, but just to be safe, "I can teleport you two to the ground, is there anyone else inside?"
They both shook their heads and Kija moved her hand in front of them, palm up. The smoke and fire were on the other side of the building, but she needed to move quickly and not scare these people with her Quirk.
"Okay, there's going to be a flash of black and then you'll be on the street. Ready? Three, two, one—"
They appeared on the street, away from the battle with the Nomu. Kija pointed towards the safer street, "Go! Avoid any streets with fire or villains in them!" The people didn't need to be told twice. They took off running down the street as fast as their work shoes could take them.
"Vortex!"
Kija back bent as a sewer cover flew over her head, she warped it to smash into the ground next to her, stopping it from possibly hitting the two fleeing men. She flipped over and whirred her Quirk to work on the rest of the street and sense for anyone there. Even if she didn't know the person, there'd be a faint something that would tell her a person was there.
