A Heroic Heart and Tired One Too (Discontinued)

16: Attack On Hosu

---------------------Chapter Start---------------------------------------------
I yawned as Mr. Snatch and I on patrol again. Mr. Snatch got me an energy drink to keep me awake. Quite charitable if you will.
"Thank you Mr. Snatch."
"Eh, enough with the formalities. How about we head back since nothings happened here and we're done helping people?." Snatch offers
"Yeah sure. Though knowing my luck as a Class 1-A student, something is bound to-"
An explosion goes off in the distance.
"happen."
"Well, we better check that out. Cmon kid, it’s hero time!" Snatch says dashing off. I run after him and we end up in Hosu. It was a shitshow let me tell you that. Those Nomu thingys were making a mess. But knowing how I faired against the last one, I'm going to opt to save people first. I helped Snatch save people and in my spare time, I absorb some stuff that may help me. I get a buzz on my phone and it’s from Midoriya. A bunch of numbers. I reach to put it away but something tells me to check out what’s wrong. But people here need me. God, I look back and forth having issues on which to choose.
"Mr. Snatch! One of my friends might be in trouble. When I’m done can I go check up on her?" I ask. Snatch nods, giving me the thumbs up.
"Go on now, kid! I have here under control!" 
"Thanks, Mr. Snatch!"
I zip around and continue moving people until the area is evacuated, I dash off in the air and head to Midoriya's location. I soar through the air and eventually spot her, Iida, and Todoroki walking out of an alley. I began to descent and head their way.
"Midori- I mean Deku, I got your message!" I yelled coming down. Midoriya turned and saw me, smiling up at me. 
"Gisheikyo!" She says. Im a few feet from the ground and right in front of us. When I blur passes in front of me, and one moment she's there and the next she's not. I look to see that one of the Nomu's got her. 
"Hang on!" I said using my quirk to shoot myself onto the side of a building and launched towards the Nomu. Just a bit closer, I said, reaching out a hand towards her. I felt someone jump off my back, and due to the imbalance, it sends me downwards, meaning I have to stabilize myself.
"What the fuck?!"
Who the hell is that guy?! He looks weird and has blood stained on his blade. He also lacks a nose, but that’s not important. Dont tell me that guy is . . . 
"Gisheikyo, stay back! This guy is the Hero Killer!" Todoroki yells as the Hero Killer kills the Nomu, freeing her, before landing on the ground.. I ran out of air so I came crashing to the ground, though I didn't take too much damage.
"Todoroki, can you give me the laydown please?"
"That’s the Hero Killer, Stain. We just finished fighting him, and now he has Midoriya hostage it seems." Todoroki said, getting ready to use his quirk. Damn it, I could have gotten here quicker and helped them out. I could have . . . No, what’s more, important is saving Midoriya, right. That’s what Snatch taught me.
The hero killer starts going on about a true hero, and how the only hero he will let kill him is All Might. I wanted to do something but . . . the pressure he's giving off is insane. I can’t move, and my blood is running cold . . . Is this his quirk? Cmon, stupid, move! She needs you. He continued stepping forward at us and I began to start pressurizing the water I have absorbed so I would be prepared if he attacked. And then he just . . . 
He just stopped.
"He's out cold." one of the heroes said. I began to make my way towards her, much to the protests of Todoroki and Iida. I helped Midoriya up and hugged her.
"Hey, whats-"
"I'm sorry, I couldn't come quicker. I could have stopped or help to stop that . . . I-"
"H-Hey, it's okay now. W-We'll b-be okay. The heroes have it under control now.' Midoriya whispered. 
We pull away as some medics came to tend to Midoriya, Iida Todoroki, and some of the other heroes. I was to leave with Snatch, who at this point had arrived to come to take me back. He quickly waives off the other heroes, scolding me for acting brash.
"The kid did what every hero should do. He acted on instinct and acted to save someone. I feel as though that alone deserves praise from pros like us." Snatch says, ruffling my hair. I went over to Midoriya who was currently receiving some medical attention.
"I have to leave now. take care of yourself okay?" I said, interlocking hands with her,
"I will. Th-Thank you, Gisheikyo." 
I got up and waved good bye as I left with Snatch. It then occurred to me what I just did, leaving me a blushing mess. Why the fuck did I do that?
