Roommates. Dabi- Love story.

"I'm so proud of her, Creamy! Now they'll finally take her seriously as she deserves! My Toga! I'm looking forward to her first day at the clinic!" Jin's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm and too much alcohol. He and Cremorah sat in her room talking about the events of the last day. Everyone had already left, and those who were too drunk were sleeping on the couches and the floor in the living room. Toga was also already asleep, and only the two of them weren't sleepy yet. Twice gesticulated vividly, telling her what a wonderful future awaited them. Alcohol let his tongue completely loose and the man didn't even try to hide that he was in love. He painted before Cremorah's eyes pictures of his bright future with Toga, and suddenly...

At first, she was blinded by the bright light and then deafened by a rumble. The force of the bang broke the wall and the terrified girl saw in slow motion how the bricks were shattering into smaller pieces, and several of them hit her friend's head. Twice fell unconscious to the floor. He was covered with dust and a fragment of the wall that must have broken his leg, as evidenced by the awful sound of breaking bones. Cremorah leapt to the farthest corner of the room and frantically tried to figure out what was going on. She had no idea why or who but someone attacked them. The wall crumbled to pieces, so the calibre of the bullet had to be large. Why? She didn't have time to think because an attacker had burst into her room. He was wearing a bulletproof black suit, reinforced on the chest and thighs. There was a black mask on his face. He expected resistance. It couldn't be an ordinary thief. He was prepared.

He spotted her almost immediately, and Cremorah instantly blinded him. The man tried to blindly shoot her but didn't expect that the petite teen would attack. Without thinking too much, the girl jumped toward him, trying to yank his weapon away. She succeeded but didn't predict that there were more attackers. While falling, she was hit by a side shot. The bullet pierced her body under the rib, fortunately, it didn't damage any organs. Cremorah fell to the ground with a thud. The man immediately informed his companions about her quirk. The pain was excruciating, but in a life-threatening situation, it was the least of her worries. Desperate once more, she looked at Jin lying motionless. Invisible claws tightened around her heart. *Stay with me!* She thought and grasped the weapon more confidently.

Hidden behind a barely standing fragment of the wall, she raised her hand once more to blind the man who had burst into her room. Just in case he would regain his eyesight. No matter how many there were now, they thought she was dead. The slight advantage gave the girl courage to look through the fragment of the glass that a moment ago was her window. *One in the room, two on the left... They gave each other signals, so there must be someone else on the right...* She had to think quickly. If she manages to blind the two she noticed on the left, even if they realize she's alive, they won't be able to hurt her… She raised her hand and heard one of the attackers scream.
"I can't see anything! That bitch is still alive!" Shots rang out and several bullets passed Cremorah by a few inches. The man inside felt his way toward her but stumbled midstep.

She had no choice. The gun seemed to gain more weight in her hands as she unsteadily raised it. She held her breath and pulled the trigger... The man fell to the ground, motionless. Right in the temple. *So this is what it is like to take someone's life?* Time slowed down and everything sounded muffled like from behind a wall. She had just killed someone… She didn't notice the rescue until Toga fell to her knees at motionless Jin. Cremorah watched the sobbing girl try to remove all the bricks from the man and assess the depth of the wounds. Finally, she shook off her shock and ran to them. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a blue flame consuming someone else's body behind her. She was about to get up, but Toga stopped her.
"It's ok. It's Dabi..." the blonde sobbed
"Jin, wake up! Don't do this to me! Jin, I need you!" Her crying was heartbreaking.

Cremorah leaned over Twice and pressed her ear to his chest. She froze for a moment, terrified, but then felt a weak but steady heartbeat. She cupped Toga's face, forcing her to look into her eyes.
"Everything's gonna be alright, Toga! Do you understand? Everything's gonna be alright! Jin needs to go to the hospital, but he'll get out of this!" Then the girl burst into tears even more, but shakily grabbed the phone and dialled the number. Help was on its way.
"There were at least three more, Toga." Cremorah tried to calm herself and focus on the danger.
"Shiggy... and Dabi took care of that..." She sobbed, and a scream of relief escaped her chest. Twice coughed weakly and opened his eyes.
