Chapter 5 || Shattering the peace

Once you three were ready to leave, you threw away your rubbish but instead of heading out the door you decided to ascend the floors to check out the famed Yakitori restaurant. The elevators were in use so you took the stairs since there weren't too many floors above you and according to Misaki, Kirara needed the exercise. After climbing up a few floors a violent and sudden crashing noise forced us to stop. What accompanied next were terrified screaming and more scary banging and crashing noises. 

"What the hell's going on?" Kirara demanded, suddenly alert.

"AH! What was that?!!" Misaki squealed.

"It came from above! Are villains attacking?!" you cried, starting to panic.

Just as you said that there was an even louder thundering noise of shattering glass and crumbling concrete. This one made that whole building shake, Kirara lost her balance on one of the steps and would've fallen down had you not caught her. Misaki hung onto you and Kirara and you all huddled in a corner of the stairway as the building fell apart around you.

Kirara looked at the door up and said, "We can't stay here, if we do, we'll risk being crushed. Let's go in there so at least then we'll have more space to work with."

"But if all the commotion is above us, doesn't it make sense to go down?!" you frantically reasoned.

"No, we're too high up! We'll never make it to the bottom before getting trapped or worse!" Misaki yelled, starting to get up, "The heroes must be rushing over here right now, if we can get to a window, they'll spot us and will be able to rescue us. Over here through that door!" she ordered before rushing over to it, dragging me and Kirara with her and throwing it open.

"But...but...there must be hundreds of people in this building! We can't bank on the heroes rescuing us, especially if there's a threat out there causing all of this!" you said close to tears. Your entire body was shaking from fear, you felt like there was a weight on your chest, making it hard for you to breathe.

Mikasa saw you hyperventilating and came over as Kirara looked through one of the massive windows in search of help. She took your hands and said passionately, "We know that the top two heroes in the country are here right now, it'll be ok. Endeavour is really strong and Hawks is unrivalled when it comes to evacuating civilians- they've got this."

"Ok," you said quietly, trying to slow your breathing, "Thanks, I feel a little better."

"Are you just saying that or...?"

"Guys," Kirara interjected, fumbling for her glasses, "I think I see something flying around out there, but I can't quite make it out."

"That must be Hawks!" Misaki said excitedly and she sprinted over to the window to take a look.

Just as she did, there was another awful crashing sound from above and mere seconds later the ceiling began to collapse in on you. Kirara acted swiftly. She seized Misaki's wrist and pulled her under a table, yelling at you to do the same and you managed to find cover just as everything from above crashed down on the three of you. Debris and rubble buried the room, leaving it essentially destroyed and pitch black 

---

Somehow, you survived. 

It seemed like only pieces of the floor above fell down, that being said the damage it caused was immense. The power went out, all the windows were blocked by rubble and the room was made smaller due to the amount of debris cluttering it. You coughed a bit due to the dust now hanging around the air and activated your quirk. Instantly the room became perfectly visible again and you looked around as you crawled out of your little shelter. Just as you did, you heard Kirara's voice.
