My Avenging Heroes

Resurfaced Evil

Kaminari and Jiro walked through the halls of the hospital, hoping to find at least one of the two people they were looking for. At a vending machine, they found Natasha. She was holding something with a silverish shine. They cautiously approached her and just stared into the vending machine when they got to her.

"You kids thinking about getting some candy?" Natasha asked.

"I was going to get some gum," Kamimari said, "but it looks like they ran out."

"How would you feel if I said I took it all?"

"If there wasn't a good reason," Jiro said, "pretty... Fury-ous."

Both Kaminari and Natasha looked at her incredulously.

"Even I wouldn't say something that dumb Ji--" Kaminari was interrupted by a hand slamming into his mouth.

Before Jiro could respond in any way, she also had a hand slapped over her mouth. Natasha dragged them into another room and slammed the door shut.

"Whatever you're really doing here, make your explanations snappy," Natasha said, putting a hand on one of her holstered pistols, "because I'm not going to be that patient with you two."

Kaminari and Jiro were scared at her bluntness. They explained their being attacked and their decision to split from Midoriya and Uraraka. Natasha relaxed a little. She pointed to the room behind her with her thumb as she looked out the room's window and saw Steve approaching wearing civilian clothes.

"You two get changed into less conspicuous clothing," she said, "we'll hunt the truth together."

Kaminari and Jiro went into the other room and began changing out of their hero costumes and placing them into duffle bags. Kaminari was the first done; he just put on jeans, a light blue tee shirt, and a black jacket as well as a baseball cap. He turned around and saw Jiro's back turned to him as she put on a baggy shirt and a navy blue jacket. She also put on a beanie to hide her ears. She turned around and saw a slightly blushing Kaminari. Glaring, she shot one of her earphone jacks out and held it at his throat. He whimpered in fear.

"How long were you watching?" She growled.

"I only saw you put on the shirt, jacket, and hat," Kaminari whimpered out, "I swear!"

She slid the jack back under the beanie. Were Kaminari's eyes deceiving him, or did he see Jiro blushing slightly? Natasha and Steve had wrapped up their conversation. Steve looked into the room and saw the two kids there.

"And they're here because..." he wondered aloud.

"Apparently, they were attacked, too," Natasha said, "they split from their two friends to find us while they looked for another agent in the circle of trust."

"Well, if they're involved, we'll have to make sure they survive."

Steve motioned them to join. They left the hospital and went to a nearby mall. Kaminari and Jiro were a little confused about why they came here. They came to a computer store, and Natasha plugged the drive into one of the computers, saying they had nine minutes. The timer was ticking. Eventually, one of the workers came over to ask if they needed help.

"Oh, no," Natasha said, "my fiance was just helping me find some honeymoon destinations."

The employee's next question was a shocker to everyone.

"These your kids?" He asked.

"Ah, uh, no we're they're li-little siblings!" Kaminari said, "My big bro, and my future sis in-law. Her little sis," he wrapped his arm around Jiro's shoulder and pulled her in close. She started to blush and get a little angry, "is actually my closest friend!"
