Melted Snow and Clipped Wings

2: Number One Hero

3rd person pov:

Twelve years later.

Hawks fly over the city with a grocery bag in one hand and a phone in his other hand.

Haw:"Hey babe, I got what you asked for....... Yes, even the wine....... Don't worry. I was careful to pick out your favorite....... I love you too."

As Hawks hangs up the call. A shadow looms over him. So when he looks up. That's when a huge set of wings wrap around his entire body wings and all except his hand that holds the groceries. Causing Hawks to drop them on the streets below.

A civilian sees the bottle crash in front of them. When they look up. They see Hawks pulling to break free. So they start filming. At the moment, the video starts. Hawks is pulled back in, and it uses a second set of wings to take off with him.

Inside Hawks is trying to use his feathers and strength to pry the wings open. Only for the wings to constrict him.

Hawks:"Damnit."^ I can't get enough space to move, and this thing is getting tighter by the minute. At this rate.^

Hawks growls in his last attempt to break free. Only for it to squeeze more. That's when hawks is compressed to the point that breathing is shallow. Causing him to pass out.

Meanwhile a white haired male is cooking when he gers a call.

Touya:"What's up, dad?...... No, I haven't seen the news."

He puts the call on speaker phone. Only to see the news article.

<Winged pro hero # 3 Hawks has been kidnapped by villians>

The fire of the stove turns blue with rage.

Touya:"Got anyone tracking them?"

Enji:"I've got one of my sidekicks tailing them."

Tou:"Give me the address when they land. I'm heading out."

The stove is turned off as touya gets in his hero suit. A dark blue version of his father's hero suit, but flue flames go down lines of his arms, legs, and map out his abs.

As he puts on the suit. Tiny silver lines can be seen going up Touya's arms like implants just under the skin. They also go down his legs and up his spine to a tiny box on the back of his neck.

Just as touya is about to zip up the neck of his suit. He puts in a  hearing aid sized battery into the box before zipping over it.

After he puts on his shoes and light blue eye shield like Hawks has. He steps out and uses his quirk to take to the sky.

Meanwhile, Hawks wakes up  and finds himself tied up. Arms bound wrist to elbow  and a strap over his upper arms to prevent him from pulling free. His legs bound at the ankles, below the knees, and upper thighs. A piece a tape is over his mouth and eyes. Hawks wings are constricted in heavy metallic like fabric bags.

Leaving Hawks laying on the floor.

As Hawks moves to wiggle free. A villain chuckles.

"Well, well, well. Look who finally woke up."

Four other villians chuckle at Hawks pitiful attempts to get free.

Boss:"You're not going anywhere hero. Not until we use you to get what we want thar is."

The boss squats down.

Boss:"Roomor has it that the number one hero Enferno and you are dating. So we need you to behave and be good bait."

Hawks curls up in a ball. Causing the other's to laugh.

Grunt A:" Aww, poor hero. Not so tough when you're powerless huh?"

The boss grabs a handful of hawks hair to lift his head. That's when hawks kicks the boss. Causing him to fall on his ass.

Since the contact was feet to face. The boss's nose is bleeding. So he wipes the blood off before punching Hawks on the face twice. Once the boss stands up. He kicks him in the stomach four times. Causing Hawks to cough and grown in pain.

Hawks ears listen to the group once they leave him alone.

Grunt B:"Boss, let's pass the time with a game. Who can make the hero cry out in pain first. Winner gets to kill Enferno."

The boss holds Hawks up first for his men to get the first hits in.

Haw:^There are five in total. One is huge like the one that brought me here. Three seem average is size, and then their boss. Heavy steps and a big build makes this tough, but not impossible to escape. I just need an opening.-^"GHUH!"

Hawks muffled whimper from a hit to the face, making the next one hit harder.

With every hit. Hawks growls out in pain until he feels dizzy. Hawks head goes down and his body gets limp as every breath is slow and heavy.

Boss:"That's enough. We don't want him dead. At least not until that fire brat gets here. Otherwise, the mission to capture him will fail, and we won't get paid."

Haw:^Who would want touya? Everyone he's faught has been arrested. Maybe an acomplis of one of those past villians? I need more information.^

Hawks forces through the pain and lifts his head back up. Ready for another hit.

Boss:"You got spunk. Try not to black out so quickly, okay?"

The boss let's two grunts hold Hawks up. As he punches Hawks three times to the chest.

Hawks listens once more.

Haw:^The boss is by me, two goons are holding me, and two others watch. The clicks of a camera means one is filming. The big guy is just watching and chewing gum. Wait, there's someone else behind them.^

The boss stops and wipes his brow.

Boss:"Damn, it's hot. Did the AC crap out on us?"

Hawks begins to make a sound like crying. Only for the tape over his mouth to get lose. That's when they realize that he's laughing.

Boss:"What the hell is so funny?"

The boss rips off the tape. While a grunt grabs the roll to reapply new tape.

Haw:"Your time has run out jailbirds. He's-"

Boss:"Shut the fuck up."

Once Hawks is silenced again. The boss punches Hawks so hard. That the grunts drop him because even their hands hurt from holding on during the attack.

Hawks cheek begins to swell and nose bleeds perphewsly.

Then the heat in the room rises. As all the villians laugh at Hawks.

Tou:"Hey shitheads!"

Everyone goes quietly and looks behind the big guy to see touya flaming with anger.

Tou:"No one steals from me and gets away with mistreatment."

Touya cracks his knuckles and neck. Itching for a fight.
