I shifted on my feet as I stood in front of the club.

"Okay. Anytime now." Hawks said cheekily in my ear.

I rolled my eyes and pressed the device in my left ear, "Shut it. I need to concentrate and your not helping."

I heard Hawks make a sound of protest before he fell silent again. And I was left back with my thoughts, okay walk in. Maybe fight a few thugs look around find the drugs.

Yep. A totally fool proof plan.

I walked into the club and was immediately met with the smell of raw weed, dirty sex, and sweating men. I gagged.

The bright lights were flashing in my eyes as I shoved myself past groups of thugs. I scanned the surrounding area, and bingo.

I saw a shady stand where men with familiar looking bird masks were slumping over handing objects to passing thugs. I tugged my hood around my head more to hide my face. Even though I looked totally different thanks to the beautiful Keon.

I padded over to the stand, hiding behind a few people, and for once I was grateful for my short stature. I couldn't hear anything over the pounding music and I couldn't read their lips because they were wearing masks, but I could tell from body language that they were having a spat.

I slinked closer until I almost fell over a small body.

I started when I looked down and saw a small periwinkle haired girl. She was covered with bandages and looked around in fear.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked bending down and setting my hands gently on her shoulders.

She flinched and backed away a few steps before she ran off into the crowd. I shot up and ran after her, I had my gaze on her until something grabbed my arm.

"Heyyyy look a pretty lady."

I sneered in disgust as a large drunk man was starring at me in lust. "How about you come with me and keep me warm tonighttt?" He slurred.

I smirked at the thought of me keeping someone warm when I was cold skinned.

However the drunk man took my smirk as a positive response and pulled my closer until my body was pressed against his.

"Come on nowww. Keep me warm tonight pretty thing." I scrunched my nose at the smell of his beer filled breath.

"No thanks." I said coldly. I stepped on his foot and jabbed his side with my elbow. When he doubled over I grabbed the back of his head and jammed his face into my knee hearing a satisfying crack!

The drunk man passed out on the floor at my feet and everyone was too distracted or didn't care.

"Hawks. You still there?" I asked.

"Yep. Have to found the quirk enhancers yet?"

"I think so. However I'm getting sidetracked right now." I scoffed.

I turned on my heel and started back the way to the stand, standing in front of it.

"Hello. Who might you be?" The man behind the counter asked.

I froze. I couldn't use my name. I needed to make one up. "Um...I am Asami...Akasuka."

"Asami Akasuka. Never heard of you before, are you new?" He wondered.

I nodded stiffly. "I was just wondering, what are those things you're selling?"

"Oh these?" He laughed as he held up a small packet of round bullet looking objects. "These are something made by my boss. These ones can make a persons quirk get stronger. So strong it's out of their control."
