Title: Things are Finally Looking Up

Today sucks so much. 40% of my skin is fucking inflamed, and the fucking #3 hero Todoroki said he would come down and catch the escaped convicts in Yokoyama. Considering I'm pretty sure I'm the only one that got warped here, then what Todoroki really meant was Mineta, I'm salty you beat Momo's fine ass during your escape so now I'm gonna take five minutes of my sweet time to beat your ass and turn you into grape yogurt. Considering I couldn't fight him with both arms and 40 pounds of muscle mass, combat is a fuck no. Now let me give you a simple explanation of my plan.

Survive – my skin is infected, and it's itchy as hell and turning yellow. Soon, it's gonna start leaking pus. My mental and physical health directly affects my quirk. If I get any worse, my quirk will be useless....also, I'll probably die. Now normally I would just rob a drug store, but the problem with a large-scale skin infection is that....you don't want to move much. Also, heroes have been on alert since my "attack." Every couple of minutes, I see them run past my dumpster, so yeah, robbing a store is not gonna work. So I thought of something a little more subtle.

It was around 9:30 PM when I found my targets—a man and a woman coming from the movies, chatting and laughing about whatever show they were watching. Ugh, that now has me thinking about what movies and shows I missed while in jail.. Ugh, so many shows to catch up on. Anyways, I watched the couple walk into the movies earlier in the day and decided to wait under their car till they came out. Off topic a bit, but one of those two has to be making money, cause their car is nice—one of those models you would see in Tokyo Drift. Anyway, when the man opens the door for his lady like a gentleman, I decide it's time to make myself known.

"Don't move," I growl at the man, pointing my pistol at him. The confusion on his face from seeing a man crawl out from under his car is overcome by surprise at the sight of my gun. The one thing I love about guns is no matter how fucking stupid you look crawling out from under a car, no one gonna say shit becuase you have a gun....unless their quirk is better than a gun, but that's still a strech. "Sorry to ruin your night, but I'm gonna need you to Uber me. Don't do anything stupid, and we can split ways peacefully."

Thankfully, he doesn't try anything and unlocks the door. He grunts when I motion for him to open the back door for me. "Hi." I wave my pistol at the girl in the car as a way of greeting. Unsurprisingly, this didn't put her at ease.

"Where to?" the man asks, eyes locked on me from the rear view mirror.

"First, let me see your license. You too, miss." At her glare, I raise an eyebrow and motion with my gun. Once they hand them over, I tell the man to go to the closest supermarket. As the car starts to move, I look over their licenses. Something Jackson taught me was that most countries have some type of quirk marking system on their license so if cops or heros have to arrest someone, they know what they're getting into.

"Clear mind," I muse, looking at Akira Kaito. "This is probably one of the best non-combat quirks I've heard of."

"Yep. I'm a deep sea engineer, so you can imagine the power to never freak out can come in handy."

"Really? Me too! Well, I'm an engineer of all trades. And you have heat sensing?" I look to the woman, whose name was Sakura. Violet eyes glaring back at me are her only response. "Not much of a talker, is she?"

"Might be because you've taken us hostage," Akira offers.

"True, true. So does your quirk just make you calm, or are you panicking in your head but your body remains calm?"
