Problematic kitten

Chapter 7

Usagi could feel how Eraserhead lift his eyebrow before he spoke again. "Could be called?" She shrug as answer and stand up. "We have villain to catch first, don't we?" She ask challenging instead of an answer. He sigh tiredly. "Almost ready already kid." She turn to look at the villain and see how Elastic wrap her arms around her and knock her out. "Secure, Eraser." She yell cheerfully and he sigh in relief. "What a night." He grumble and she couldn't help little snort that escape from her. He turn to look at her.

Usagi feel how light blush spread to her face under the hood. "So, you are Kitten." "I just learnt that is what they call me." "You didn't give yourself that name, problem child?" She shake her head as answer. "I didn't even think I would need a name." "KITTEN!" Salamander yell before Eraser could answer to her comment. She turn to look at her and immediately dodge her hug. She frown and pout. "We thought you would be dead after last night." She frown confuse and tilt her head.

"I think your name to them is quite fitting." Eraserhead comment and Usagi tilt her head again, then she remember the cat ears top of her hood and shrug. "Not bad in my opinion." Salamander smile widely. "Right? It is so fitting, but seriously. We were worried." "Why?" She ask confuse. She sigh as answer and facepalm. "I brought that knife villain in custody and he told us how you were cut, then we couldn't find you anywhere and there were so much blood." "Oh.... Right.... He didn't cut me that badly." She answer dismissing her concern. "Don't ever disappear like that! We were worried sick!" She yell and try to hug her again.

Again Usagi slip past Salamander easily and take couple jumps backwards. "Well, I am well and alive as you can see. No need to worry about me." She answer cheerfully. "But you shouldn't have fight against that trigger villain." She argue and glare at her. "Trigger?" She ask curious and tilt her head. Eraserhead immediately wrap his capture weapon around Salamander's mouth and glare at her while erasing her quirk. "You can't just blurt that out." He hiss. She seem to realize her mistake and look sheepishly at him. He glare at her for a moment longer before letting her go.

At the time they turn to look at the spot where Usagi was, it is now empty. She has already left the area. Eraserhead sigh and rub his face tiredly. "Slippery problem child." Salamander chuckle. "Well he has been able to run from every scene before any of us got good look at him for almost a month now." He turn to look at her skeptically. "Does even one of you thought that he might be she?" She blink in confusion. "WHAAT?!" He sigh again. "Of course not." "Bu-bu- but Kitten has been able to take down many times stronger opponent and move so fast. How could he be she?" 

Eraserhead groan frustrated. "Exactly. She is clearly athletic, fast and flexible. She hold her body like women, not like men. You and Elastic of all people should have realized that." He educate Salamander like one of his students. Realization hit her like train. "Ooh, you might be right." "Of course I am. I have seen enough how people fight." He grunt as answer and turn back towards where he came. "You can handle rest of this, right?" "Yeah, of course. Thanks for the help Eraser!" He grunt as answer and move back to the streets.

Usagi couldn't believe it. She has met Eraserhead, THE Eraserhead. She couldn't help little delight giggle come out from her lips and rush to familiar alley near home. "Kuro? Kuro! Are you here? I need to tell you something!" She yell and jump on her spot. Then something alarm her senses. She manage to pull out her staff and split it to batons until something wrap around her. "Soo... This is so famous Kitten. I have been waiting for this moment." Cold male voice say and dark haired thug come in her view. She notice that he has thrown some fabric around her and she try to wiggle free. Her batons useless against her sides.

Man chuckle. "No point. My quirk allow me to control any fabric that has my blood on it. I have soaked that scarf in it." "What do you want?" Usagi ask with more courage that she believed she could muster in her voice. Man smirk darkly. "Well, this is just thank you from getting my big brother arrested, that man with knife quirk. He can make knife appear where ever he wanted in his body." "That stupid oaf? Now that you mentioned it, you two look little alike." She answer and smirk. She try to move so she could get the knife out of her belt but it was useless, she couldn't move enough. 

Man chuckle again and his smirk grow wider. "It will be so much fun to squeeze air out of you and then throw you to wolves that are more than happy to tear you apart from the trouble you have caused." She spit to his shoe. Man squeeze his fist and she feel how scarf tighten around her. She try to push against it with the help of her batons without use. Man's smirk grow more when she start to gasp for air.

Then black figure attack man's face with angry growl. Man roar in pain and his hold of scarf stop. Usagi drop on floor while gasping for air. Her ribs heal themselves and she look up. Her eyes widen. Kuro has jumped on man's face and is angrily scratching and biting at it. "What the fuck! Get away from me!" Man roar and manage to push cat away. She immediately move to catch them. "Kuro! You idiot brave cat." She grunt and push them behind her neck, under her hood. 

Kuro immediately move to better position to growl to the man but stay behind Usagi's head. "Payback time." She grunt, swing her batons and jump in attack. Now that man has lost his advantage and she is furious, he didn't have a change. She hit his knees, making him to drop and immediately hit his head strong enough to knock him out. She pant a little while watching at the man on ground. Eventually she hear quiet meow next to her ear.

Usagi turn to look at Kuro who has turned to look at her too. She carefully scratch their head. "That was quite a teamwork, don't you think?" They push their head against her cheek as an answer. "Time to tie this man up and go to home and this time, you are coming with me. You deserve a bed after this too." She promise to the cat and do just that.
