It was a cold and stormy night on the outskirts of the city with sounds of rain pouring, water dropping on the metal roofs as cars drove past each other, lights pathing away the dark and everything seemed peaceful, of course, a blond-haired man in black hooded cloak comes along walking towards a small coffee shop near an alleyway.

'So this is Elly & Alex's coffee shop I've been hearing about?' The black-cloaked man thought. The man walks inside the shop and all he finds is a Japanese-like restaurant with chairs lined up in a row it looks like a palace with art from 100,000 years past, chandeliers that glow bright, and a menu where you can order anything. The cloaked man sees another man who is in his 40s and looks like a bodybuilder with black hair cleaning the main desk and walks towards him.

"Welcome to Elly & Alex's Coffee shop sir, my name's Fred, how can I help you?" The Bodybuilder introduced himself, walking up to the blonde, who quietly sat down and looked at the newspaper, taking off his hooded cloak as well.

"I can have a Latte, please?" The blonde said. Fred nodded in response and walked towards the coffee machine. "So, you reading the latest newspaper about Vendetta?" He said, pressing one of the buttons on the coffee machine.

The blonde gives a confused look to the bodybuilder. "Who?" Fred's eyes widen as he quickly stops himself and turns around. "You're telling me you don't know the vigilante?!"

The blonde could tell he was taking this topic like the world was about to end. "...Alright," the blonde sighed, thinking this gonna take a while and got comfortable in his seat. "Tell me what you know about this vigilante."

Fred's face turns serious as he goes under the counter and quickly brings out stacks of newspapers about Vendetta. "This is all I have about him, incredibly useful when going around the City of Fafnir, especially if you're a criminal..."

The way he elaborated the word "criminal." This man makes the vigilante sound like a completely dangerous individual as if he ripped a man's arm off and used it as a weapon.

"What species is he? Saiyan? Devil?" The blonde grabbed one of the newspapers and begun reading. His face, showing boredom, slowly turns into horror as he continues reading. "...What the hell?"

[BANK ROBBERS MASSACRED?!]

'Around 12:50 p.m., a group of bank robbers was brutally killed by Vendetta, a vigilante who identified himself as-'

"WHAT?!" The blonde slammed his fist in fury as he was about to finish the last sentence. "You're telling me... Those bank robbers were killed by a human with a quirk?!"

Fred was unfazed by his outburst, he was like that when he first found out about it. "Trust me, those newspapers about Vendetta never lie, no matter what."

"Tch!" The blonde continues reading the newspaper, completely silent.

'-a human, there were 10 bank robbers and 3 survived, but had PTSD now. It is said Vedette ripped the first robber in half and shoved the first into another robber mouth, the other two bank robber organs and limbs were ripped off and scattered throughout the bank, he also must have used them as weapons as confirmed by a detective, Fuhito Kirigiri.'

"Oh my god..." The blonde stopped for a minute, Fred could tell he was completely silent before he saw me reading again.

'The six could have survived if the final 3 hadn't taken the hostage, a girl named Kyoka Jiro, a 14 year old girl, her quirk is Earphone Jack. The rest was spared, due to him prioritizing the kidnapped girl, the girl was saved but the 3 robbers were killed by an explosion. The rest of the hostages were knocked out by a sleep gas, they were carried to safety and treated.'
