In a lab area, there were doctors and nurses present. There were tubes of blood and other samples from the alleway. "There's two different blood types at that scene. The victim and someone else." One of the doctors stated. Using his quirk, he could identify the differences between blood through dna. Though he has to be looking closely at the blood for atleast a few seconds.

"Do you think it's possible that there was a struggle between the two, that resulted in the boy losing his life?" One of the nurses questioned.

"It's a possibility..though we don't want to jump the gun too quickly. But we must know who's blood this belongs too. We should start by locating any friends or enemies that he had, and see if their blood matches.." The doctors responded, while staring deeply at the blood sample.

Saito sat down on his bed, staring ahead at the wall. So far, a couple days have passed since the incident with Toga down the alleyway. Ever since that day, Saito couldn't help but think about what happened. So much so that he hasn't been to school since.

He got up from his bed and decided to walk around the house to clear his thoughts. His attempts to clear his thoughts weren't very successful, as he continued thinking about the words Toga said. "Perfect for eachother? How?? You tried to kill me. There's no way we'd be perfect for eachother. What does she mean?" Saito questioned in his head, and it was clear that his frustration was rising.

So, he turned to one of the few people that he knew he could, Saki. "Yo can we talk." He sent that message to Saki through his phone. He was a bit surprised seeing that Saki hasn't messaged him in the past two days, considering he hasn't been going to school.

Not to mention, Saki was the type to message his friends everyday atleast. Saito found it kinda strange that Saki didn't text two days in a row, but decided to shake it off and get on social media.

Meanwhile, a group of kids walked through the hallways of a highschool. In the hallways roamed a bunch of kids with quirks. Stretching abilities, fire abilities, invisibility, the list goes on. One of the girls that were walking looked like a chimp, another one had pink hair and pink eyes, and one of the other ones dressed emo like. "I wonder where Saki and Saito are. It's been two days since they've been to school." The chimp looking girl, Bonbon said to her friends.

"You haven't heard?" The pink haired girl, Minata said, causing all three of the girls to stop moving. "What happened?" The emo looking one, Celsura questioned.

As Bonbon and Celsura watched Minata, A saddened expression appeared across her face.

Saitos eyes widened as he stared at his phone on the living room couch. His entire face fell, but his pulse increased. "No way.." Saito immediately put his phone in his pocket, put his shoes on, and ran outside.

Saito continued running down the sidewalk, trying to get to Sakis house. His face was filled with urgency, causing other civilians to stop and stare at him with confusion. "What's going on?" "What's that kid doing?" "Does he have no manners?" Despite all the noise around Saito, he continued sprinting.

Once he arrived at Sakis house, he banged on the door as hard and fast as he could, hoping someone would answer as quickly as possible.

As Saito waited at the door for what felt like hours, Sakis mom finally opened the door. Plastered on her face were lifeless eyes and a depressive stare. She held open the door only slightly to reveal her face peaking around the corner. "Is it true? Did Sakis..." Saito was beginning to question.

Minata looked at the other girls. "It was Sakis brother...He never came home just a couple days ago so his mom and brother were worried. They contacted the police to search for him, where his body was found in a dumpster." Minata confessed to the two other girls, who gasped in sadness.

"No way..Poor Saki." Celsura stated.

"Where's Saki?" Saito questioned Sakis mother, though she seemed out of it.

"He went for a walk.." Sakis mother confessed, causing Saito to quickly turn around and start running once again.

"Saki!" Saito yelled as he ran and ran. He didn't know what he'd do once he found Saki, but he had to make sure that he would be okay. His heart ran laps, and so did his brain as he thought of every possibility.

He ran through the city. He continued looking around but there were so many places that Saki could be. Suddenly the saw a bunch of the civilians pointing up towards a building with gasps. The building was a good distance away. All the commotion caused Saito to look up towards the building as well. From the distance that he was at, he couldn't get a good look at who it was standing on top of the building, but it looked like a guy.

"What's going on?" "Where are the heroes?" "Is someone gonna save him?" Civilians questioned as everyone watched.

The boy who was on top of the building slowly closed his eyes. A saddened smile accompanied, as he leaned forward and fell from the building. Everyone, including Saito gasped in fear and sadness. Saito wondered if one of the heroes would save him as the boy fell from the building.

"Where are the heroes?" Saito questioned in his head, in what felt like forever that the boy was falling. No heros came. Instead, the boy fell straight into the concrete, causing his brains to splatter out on the pavement. The crowd went silent.

Saito turned around from the area, and began walking away with a spaced out expression in his eyes. "Do they even exist?" Saito questioned in his head. He realized that heros weren't there to save him. They weren't there to save Sakis brother, and now they weren't there to save the boy from committing suicide.

Saito continued walking, as a bunch of heros rushed to the scene for damage control, and controlling the chaos that started back up with the crowd. Except it didn't matter that the heroes were there now, since the boy was already dead.

Not too long after, Saito was back home, sitting down at the table. He laid his head down on the table before checking his phone to see if Saki ever responded. He didn't.

Saito was distraught at what he had just seen. He questioned why all of this is happening in his life. Seeing two deaths upclose, being close to death himself, all of it confused him and made him feel unlucky or cursed. While he was deep in his thoughts, someone suddenly knocked on his door.

Interrupted, Saito got up and walked over to the door. When he opened it, he was greeted by two police officers, once of which looked like a dog. "Um, hello?" Saito greeted as the two police officers hovered over him with serious expressions.

"Saki is your friend isn't he?" The police officer asked.

Saito slowly nodded his head, wondering what this was about. It likely had to do with Sakis brother being murdered by Toga. "I regret to inform you that Saki committed suicide on the Guhija building. His brother was also murdered just a few days ago." The police officer confessed.

Saitos heart dropped as he lowered his head in devastation. He couldn't believe what he was hearing until he thought about the boy that jumped from that building. His eyes grew watery, and his nerves grew as he clenched his fists and teeth. "Where were the heroes?" Saito questioned, before looking back up at the police officers with tears in his eyes.

"The better question is what villain drove him to that point?" The officer said. "Come with us..we have some questions for you." He continued, making Saito even more angered.
