"You were wearing those the whole time? How the hell did you manage to sneak those passed me?" Kiyoomi asked, voice low, as he and Atsumu crouched low to the roof.

Atsumu's eyes narrowed with his grin. The metal golden claws on the tips of his fingers glinting in the moonlight.

"I have my ways," Atsumu said ominously.

Kiyoomi rolled his eyes, "Whatever you say," he murmured.

They hid behind an air conditioning fixture on the roof and watched the two guards patrol up and down.

"There's the roof access," Kiyoomi pointed out, motioning to the lone door on the roof.

Atsumu nodded and continued his survey. Kiyoomi managed to catch a glimpse of something that Atsumu missed and he quickly tackled the blonde to the roof floor right as a guard shined a torch over to where they were sitting.

Kiyoomi covered Atsumu's mouth with a gloved hand as he hovered over him. His freehand was placed against the concrete next to Atsumu's face, bracing himself up as to not fall on Atsumu.

When the security guard turned away after not seeing anything, Kiyoomi finally pulled his hand away from Atsumu's mouth and looked down at him. Atsumu's cheeks were glowing red.

Kiyoomi's eyes widened slightly as he realized the position he'd accidentally put them in. He quickly climbed off of Atsumu.

"Sorry. You okay?" Kiyoomi asked shortly.

Atsumu nodded, "Yeah. Let's finish our recon."

After noting where all the security were stationed outside of the building and all possible entrances and exits – just in case something went wrong – Kiyoomi wormholed them back into the car.

Kiyoomi sent Atsumu sly smirk as he started the car, "What do you say about me toying with the Adlers a little?" He asked.

Atsumu snorted, "I'd say fuck it. Go ahead," he said as he buckled his seat belt.

Kiyoomi waited a moment for Atsumu to put on his kitsune mask. Then, he rolled down the driver's-side window and extended his up-turned palm through the threshold. With his eyes flashing with an inversion, a bolt of negative energy blasted from his palm and shot into the sky.

The signature ball of negative energy exploded like a flare – blazing white, tinged with orange – and gave away the exact location of Sakusa Kiyoomi, a traitor, to the Adlers.

The window was just about rolled up and Kiyoomi had just put the car in first gear when they noticed the telltale signs of one of the Adlers' most dangerous metas – Tatsuto Sokolov, a giant with the ability of weather manipulation.

Dusty clouds filled the dark skies and people ran for shelter. Kiyoomi hit the gas pedal and they were off. His eyes remained inverted as he kept his focus on avoiding the lightning bolts that struck the cracked tarred roads around the car.

They heard the tip-tap of rain on the roof of the car and Kiyoomi cursed under his breath. He drifted around a corner and continued to weave between the other cars on the street as acid rain began to pour from the sky.

"Damnit. Out of everyone, they sent him??" Kiyoomi spat, immediately regretting his decision.

Kiyoomi suddenly felt Atsumu place a hand on his bicep, squeezing just enough to be comforting without accidentally cutting Kiyoomi with his metal claws.

"Keep drivin', Omi," he directed, "I've got Hurricane."

Kiyoomi didn't question it and shifted gears to pick up speed. Meanwhile, Atsumu used a metal claw to slice a thin but deep cut across his palm. He did it without hesitation and without flinching at all.
