Inko Fights Back, More Realistic Outcome

She'd instead turned to look at the room, noting absently that only half the lights were on. But then...

"Inko, my dear, it's been too long."

That voice.

It couldn't be. Her eyes snapped to the back of the room where she thought the voice had come from. It was dark... actually it wasn't that dark. The lights in the front were aimed at her, so she couldn't see.

"Nothing to say?"

The taunt followed up after a few seconds.

Inko stared and then shivered. She wanted to yell. She wanted to scream. She wanted... She wanted to hurt him! Except... Her eyes glanced around the room. There were papers on the table. There were chairs around the table. She could lift them but... They were not behind him.

"I know how your quirk works, my dear," he said mockingly, knowing what she was thinking.

There was something she could pull though. "Do you?" Inko asked, reaching out with her quirk. Hisashi didn't know her quirk as well as she did. It was simple enough to grasp her target with her quirk. After all, she'd seen them before. She tugged.

"What are you doing?" Hisashi asked. She heard him move.

"Oh, nothing," Inko replied and tugged harder.

He actually groaned rather than admit to pain. "Stop that!"

A blanket came over her mind and Inko obeyed, but even under the blanket, she knew, at least in a little way, she'd won. And perhaps that was all she could ask for.

Hold on to the slight feeling of victory... it's probably all you can hope for, Inko. Alas.

My discord is on this code: ZX2R5h2cEm You should be able to figure that out.
