"I'll take Chronos out of commission, protect Eri!" I leapt into action, wrapping my arm in thorns and swinging down on his head.

Mirio took off with Eri, dodging Overhaul's attacks.

I quickly exchanged blows with Chronos, avoiding his clock hand hair. Dealing a final blow to side of his head, knocking him face first on to the ground.

"Roxanne!" Mirio yelled.

I jerked, attempting to dodge the spikes shooting out of the ground. One stuck my left ankle, causing me to scream out in pain. I fell to the ground and slammed my head, my vision start to blur.

Dammit! Dammit! I've train with the best Villains for months and I'm going down to head injury. This can't be it.

The sound of the wall breaking brought me back to my senses after a while. I looked up to see Izuku, Mr. Aizawa, and some other hero I didn't really recognize. Aizawa moved Izuku out of the way of Chronos' attack, falling to the ground. Izuku attacked Overhaul and started screaming.

"Roxanne, are you alright?!" Mirio yelled from across the room.

"Gucci my dude." I pulled myself up off the floor and towards him.

"Aren't you with the League?" The tall man with green hair asked, stepping between me and Mirio.

"I'm a human over everything, what he's doing to this girl is wrong. I'm on the side of non-worldly collapse so if you could step aside and let me help Mirio the best I can."

The man sighed, taking off to support Izuku.

“Do you think you can get Eri out of here in your condition?” I quickly wrapped Mirio’s torso, trying to stop the bleeding.

“I have to, it’s what heroes do.” Mirio cracked a smile. “I knew you were still a hero.”

“Just get the kid outta here huh?” I grumbled.

"Go support Mirio. I don't trust her."

“Doll, this is dangerous! You should go with them and…”

I cut Izuku off. “And leave you guys down here alone? This guy fucked with The League, there’s no way I’m leaving without repentance for what my team lost.”

Izuku just stared before muttering something before coming to my side.

“I can handle it.” Mirio strained.

“Let’s get moving Deku.” I grabbed his arm.

I turned to the man from before, to see him stabbed through the chest.

Mirio and Izuku started yelling.

We quickly sprung into action, attacking him from either side. I wrapped a thick thorny vine around him, attempting to stop him in his tracks but he kept moving. It was like everything we could throw at him wasn’t affecting him.

“It was Lilac right? ROXANNE!” As Chisaki spoke I was impaled in my lower back. “Your mother almost blew me to pieces a while back, I think I’ll return the favor.”

I felt a sharp stone plunge into my left wrist and thigh, I screamed out in pain.

“Roxanne!” Izuku yelled from the left of me.

“Don’t stop fighting Deku! As long as Eri and Mirio get out of here, you’ve still won.” I stumbled, my knees betraying me.

“Someone else is about to die because of you! Is that what you want?! Eri!” Chisaki shouted.

I gripped my side and started screaming. “You bastard!” I stumbled a few steps so I would be in Eri’s path back to Chisaki. “You’re going to stand there and blame a little girl for your actions! You hurt people because you enjoy it! You keep guilt tripping her into making herself suffer! She’s not coming back to you! I won’t let her!”

I grabbed her hand as she walked past. 

“I’m sorry, I have to go back.” She pulled away from me.

I ripped my sleeve off my arm to expose the scars from the cigarette bruns. “Eri! Look at me! I don’t know exactly what he’s been doing to you baby girl but you can get out!” Tears started streaming down my face. “Please, let them save you! I promise you if you go back with them they can protect you! You can control your power so you can help people! If you go back with him, he’s going to use you to hurt more people!”

“How touching, Eri get over here!” Chisaki yelled.

“Eri. I know he’s probably the only thing you’ve ever known but you’ve got to trust that these heroes can make things better. I know for a fact that there are other heroes on the way, we just need to keep him here until we can put him away. If you stay with Mirio we can…” Blood started running out of my mouth.

“I think I’ve heard enough of your heroics.” 

I started to choke on my own blood.

“Lilac!” Izuku shouted.

I spit blood out before straining to speak. “I’m sorry, I probably look super scary right now. You’re so strong Eri, please get back to Mirio.” I fell on my face and passed out.
