so that's when bacon strips took his chance, i was infuriated at how easily sero had dropped his guard, what happened to 'i'll distract the enemy'? he lunged forward towards sero, emerging from the abyss as a blazing blue fire arose from his palms. the dork in front of him was too slow to even see what was going on so i had to step in.

why do i have to do the tough work? now, i was definitely going to ask for a week's supply of ice cream when we got home from this, it angered me how quickly this guy was able to dodge my attacks even at a base especially designed for my quirk type. "awh fuck this!"

i threw my hands in the air as he, yet again, disappeared into thin air. "you're a pussy! hiding when i'm just about to land a hit on you, what are we scared of now? a bunch of high schoolers?"

i activated my quirk and brought one of the poles that was mounted on a table to my hands, i'd have to hit him just as he would come out of the portal. sero and i stood back to back, i whispered to him, taking the chance, "i'll smack him and you use your tape to tie him up, good?"

i saw him stretching his arms as i turned my head towards him, a grin on his face. "got it boss..."

and so we stood there for a few seconds, waiting for him to make his move. i tried to slow my breathing but as each second without his attack passed by, the more anxious i got about the situation. this was his turf, we had no idea how to navigate around a quirk like this. "don't drop your guard dumbass-"

i was in the middle of finishing my sentence when i felt as immense burn on my arm, in the blink of an eye, sero was in front of me, tape wrapping around the man who's hand was still latched onto my arm, i trudged backwards onto a table when he finally let go. "____, do the thing now, hit him! quickly."

i went for the pole on the floor but i was just simply not able to grab onto it, he had left my arm completely senseless. "i can't! my arm!" the man ripped through sero's tape, a blazing blue fire emerging from his hands yet again as he started throwing punches. i cursed myself for being such a hypocrite and dropping my guard that easily, this could cost us our lives.

sero was dodging his hits by mere milliseconds, drawing him away from me after every punch. a distraction! i looked at my swollen arm and then to my other, if i couldn't use my dominant hand i'd have to make-do with what i had. so i ran towards the man with my fingers clenched into a fist, my knuckles ready to collide with the back of his head.

just before i could land the hit, the abyss appeared yet again and suddenly he disappeared, i completely forgot about the other guy, now they were both gone yet again. well, for what i knew they were playing coy, not wanting to get injured and stay safe, that's how i knew our other person wasn't physically strong. they chose to play tactically and with strategy instead of skill and brute force. that's how i also knew that they were smart. we were facing pros here...

as i was deep in thought, i didn't realize that sero ran over to me, he put his hands on my shoulders and telling me to snap out of it, "this is dangerous... i know you're mad at me but please, we need to get out of here!"

i made out enough words in the vast ocean of my thoughts, i wouldn't sit with what was 'good enough', i would excel. "of course darling."

i snapped my head up at him, as if a light bulb had lit up in my brain, i still find it strange that this is how i motivate myself, feeling the challenge of a smart opponent. "you don't need to worry your pretty face one bit, i'll crack both of their skulls and use them as cones for the ice-cream you're gonna buy me..."

cracking my knuckles and stretching my legs, i was confident in the plan b i had just made, waiting for the opportunity to rise where i could use it. the plan b, in question, was something that i had been trying out for a while and had only properly shown katsuki, he told me it was a shitty idea but that's usually what he says.

i was used to using my hands for my quirk, but with my arm in the state that it was, i couldn't even move a pebble. thankfully, i still had both feet. there was rubble and debris all around us: on the walls, the floor, the tables, everywhere... this would take a bit of practice to master in a few minutes, but i could do it...

"come out and face me like a real man, pussy!"
