Narrators POV

The call from Ellie.

He expected it to happen sometime soon, but not this soon, not after this eventful night. Especially this late at night, seriously what could she be calling about?

Izuku: yes?

Ellie: u-um is this Arkham Knight!

Izuku: it is... but what the hell is up with the yelling?

The clack of fast foot steps became eminent over the phone call, striking a sound of urgency for Izuku's mind.

Izuku: hello? What's happening?

The sounds of her breath echoed through the call, it was most concerning to Izuku.

Ellie: get away!

The sound of slapping against skin and a slow struggle for power heard.

Izuku: what the hell is happening? Ellie? ELLIE!

The sound over the phone descended to silence, only the static of the calling ringing. At this point, Izuku was running out from the sewer, finding a manhole to crawl out of and sprint around the area to see if he could find Ellie.

Ellie: huff... huff... hello...?

The vigilante turned back to his phone.

Izuku: Ellie? Is that you!

Ellie: y-yeah...

Izuku: where are you?!

It took a moment for her to respond, her breaths of air becoming louder and louder until she calmed down.

Ellie: I'm by Takoba Municipal Beach... come quickly, I think people trying to kidnap me...

Izuku: okay, I'll get there as fast as I can!

Using Fire Flare and Agility Boost, Izuku glided in the air, dashing past the night sky in a hurry to save Ellie. It didn't matter if he wanted it to end, he gave a promise to help that girl when she needed it, he would be a bastard if he went back on it.

Izuku: I won't let her get hurt!

Blissful speed, in 20 minutes, Izuku flashed through the city skyline and landed at a building across from the beach, searching for Ellie. At first he couldn't find, that was until he spotted a bush of long black green tinted hair attempting to mask themselves behind the stairs that led down the beach. Izuku wanted to fly down there and give comfort to the girl, yet there was pressing matter, he didn't have a mask to shield his face.

Izuku: to reveal my identity so soon... oh to hell with it! I couldn't give a shit for this moment!

Dashing across the air with a blast of fire behind his palms, he gently landed on side walk. On the other side was Ellie, hiding behind the stairs, struck with fear, terrified to her core, he was attacked, an attempted kidnapping on her soul. She may have been biologically 18, but she was no better then a 5 year old, she was only a child and her only wish was to act like one, not to be put through over a dozen years of aging and education in a mere couple of years. Imagine that? Imagine all the mental battles she had to fight every day, the right to be a normal child was taken away from her, forcibly stripped by something she couldn't control.
