Woman of the Night. (Hawks x reader)

22: U!

The week of the internships had passed. 

I took in Shinso and he had proven to be an absolute gem when it came to the patrols and fighting crimes in general. I grew very attached to him, even though I didn't want to admit it. Throughout his internship, he was free to try out multiple weapon types, until I introduced him to the captured weapon that I and Aizawa shared. He fell in love with it and decided to master it. Needless to say that Aizawa was also very interested in the boy and was more than willing to teach him the ropes when the week was over.

During that week Me and Hawks signed the documents for merging our agencies together and that was the only time I saw him. He was serious and almost wouldn't look at me. After that, I haven't heard from Hawks and only saw him when we changed for day and night patrol. Every time there was a message from him, his assistant would notify me and pass on the message and it irritated me to the bone.

'What the hell is wrong with him?!' I constantly thought throughout the week and this lack of communication was breaking my heart.

I took on different types of patrolling now and wasn't just during the night shifts. This gave me more time to work with the league and preparing to welcome a new member that only Dabi and Shigaraki knew about for now.

Finally, that day had come when some of us, the higher ranking villains were introduced to the new member of the league.

«Hey there,» I heard Dabi from the door as he leaned on it and stared at me as I was changing. 

'No manners whatsoever.' I thought in frustration, putting my top on and tying the long-sleeved shirt around my waist. 

«I want to warn you. Don't be too hostile to him, I have tested where his loyalty lies and it's not with the Heroes.» Dabi continued

«Why should I care where his loyalties lie?» I coldly asked.

«Well, he is not a low-life hero.» He said as we walked downstairs where Shigaraki and the portal boy was waiting for us. Turns out I was one of the 2 people who were being introduced to this mystery person today. Kurogiri, the portal boy, apparently wasn't aware of who he was as well, which was strange.

«You ready?» Shigaraki dryly asked and I nodded with indifference «Please try not to kill him when you see him.» I rolled my eyes at him. 

'Why do you care? One more person that I have to snitch to the commission.' I thought with annoyance as I walk through the portal.

As I look up to where the figure was standing my heart literally stopped.

I grab onto a knife as rage, anger and frustration suddenly start to boil up inside me. Working solely on instinct that was built into my villainous character, amplified by my real emotions and anger towards that particular person, I dashed towards him with fire in my eyes.

'You!' I yelled in my head 'How could you? What the hell are you doing here?' 

I was so angry.

Just as I dashed forward someone smashed his body into mine, preventing me from coming any closer. 

Dabi.

«Let me go Dabi!» I whisper through my teeth as I looked at the grinning face of the person a few meters away from me.

«I told you to try and not kill him when you see him,» Shigaraki said in a tiered tone. 

After a few seconds of battling against Dabi's strength, I loosened up and he let go of me.

«What the hell were you thinking?» I say through my teeth «Getting involved with the number 3 hero» I said it with such spite in my tone that everyone looked at me in surprise.

«He had proven himself useful to us,» Shigaraki said. 

«Hawks,» he turned to the winged hero who was still grinning and looking from underneath his eyebrows at me. «This is Y/N, The Strangler.» He motioned at me 

«Forgive her, she tends to jump into action at a moments notice.» I stare at Hawks the same way he just moments ago looked at me. 

My eyes were full of despise and anger towards him.

'Is this what he was doing this whole time? The Commission didn't even bother!' I thought 

'They have a whole lot to explain to me!'

3rd POV

Meanwhile, Hawks' expression changed when he heard her name. 

'Y/N?' He thought as he studied the woman before him. 

She was so angry that he could practically feel it in his whole being. But she looked nothing like the one he knows. She has bright hair and doesn't have the normal style or composure of 'Noch'. He studied her a bit more and something really bothered him. 

'Why is she so angry about me, I never even got close to catching her, I pause her no threat. Yet, the way she looks at me kind of feels like she has a personal vendetta against me.'

After that though, a smile shone on his face again and he moved closer to her. She stood like a wall, not even flinching.

«One more step and you will regret this,» she said as something shone in her hand, but that didn't stop him. He took another step towards her and was about an arm's length away from her. Something slashed across his cheek in a second and he felt a burning sensation. The woman in front of him was standing with an extended arm. He felt blood running across his face.

Without lowering her hand with a knife down she moved closer to him and grabbed his shirt by the collar and yanked him closer to her face. The cold knife pressed in his cheek.

Something sweet and fresh hit his face... a very familiar combination of Jasmine and cinnamon... something that brought too many memories in front of his eyes. 

'Five.... I want to see you.' was his thought at that exact moment as he held a smirking face in the eyes of the fearless woman.

«If you make one false move, just one.» Y/n whispered into his ear «I will end you, personally.» And with that, she pushed him away from herself and walked through the portal.

«Forgive her, she is a little bit headstrong,» Shigaraki said with a tiered expression.

Hawks couldn't stop looking in the direction where the woman's figure had disappeared to. He was dumbstruck and just looked at that spot, trying to process what just happened.

'She looked... she was so similar... to HER. 

But it can't be Her. No. 

The Commission would have told me if that was the case.' He was thinking 

'How I miss her. I wish I could be with her but these people... they pause a threat to her and the children, I could never put her into the harm's way.'

 Someone ripped him out of his thoughts and Hawks came back to planet Earth. He stared at Dabi, first blankly and then a sly smile crept onto his face, but Dabi's was sadistically serious.

«She is mine.» He threatened and Hawks just put his hands up in defence and countered.

«Well, I have my own, no lesser than that one.»

At that the introductory meeting has ended and Hawks left to attend to his hero business but before that he thought he would stop by the hero commission, to give back his report. However, weirdly enough the commission couldn't see him today and asked to send them the report and ask any other questions at another time.

«Weird» Hawks thought aloud as he looked up at the dusking sky and a small breeze hit his face. With a heavy sigh, he closed his eyes and looked at his feet.

Instinctively he placed a hand on his skin-tight shirt, right over his heart and suddenly gripped it so hard as if trying to dig out his own heart.

'I want to see her.'

With that thought, he opened his wings and sped to their agency. He didn't care if she was going onto patrol or getting off one, he was going to talk to her none the less.

He couldn't bare the separation any longer.
