Using my pocketknife in my vest pocket, I created a gash on my elbow, so I'd be able to form my Hecate at any given moment.

    "Careful," the Detective warned. "There's things flying in the air, and they kinda look like... that Nomu."

    My lips curled upwards into a smirk. "But that's what makes this fun."

    As to not be spotted by any pros, I stuck to the back alleys. There was a large burst of fire earlier, which led me to assume that Endeavor was in town. His agency and the others can deal with the Nomu. If the Detective is right, then Stain will be weaving through these back alleys amidst the chaos.

    It felt like I ran down every single alley, each being empty. Not even a drop of blood dirtied the pavement. Stain likes to leave a display of his victims, so I'm definitely looking in the wrong place.

My phone vibrated. I'd rather not get in trouble for ignoring the Chairwoman again. Wait... It's Izuku? The green haired boy sent his location in our class group chat, which was a few blocks away. I thought that he was in some rural area. Maybe Gran Torino took him here to experience a real battle... Oh no. Did he find Stain?!

Quickly, I changed into my UA hero costume. Izuku would know who I am the second that he hears my voice. Throwing my vigilante costume into my bag, I dashed for the location that I was sent. He better not die on me!

***

I was right. There stood the infamous killer in front of Iida, Izuku, and another hero, followed by the strong scent of blood. Stain inched towards Iida, holding the blade near his face. Throwing my backpack to the side, I sprang into action.

After I had nicked the tip of my finger on my tooth, I released some blood, creating a rope and wrapping it around the villain's hand that held his weapon. "I really don't appreciate you picking on my classmates, Hero Killer."

"(Y/n)!" Izuku smiled. "Wait, I thought that the Nighteye Agency was in another town?"

"Damn kids!" Stain muttered, before using another knife to cut my blood thread.

The blood that I had used disconnected, as it splattered on the ground. "Damnit!"

Just as the sword was about to collide with Iida's vitals, a large fire blasted down the alley, causing the man to jump back.

"Midoriya." Todoroki held up his phone. "You need to give more details in times like this. I was almost too late to stop this guy."

"You guys too?" Iida tiredly groaned from the ground. "Tsutsumi. Todoroki."

"How'd you get here?" Izuku gasped. "Hold on, you're using your left side?"

"How'd I get here?" The half and half boy frowned. "Good question. Your message took me a while to figure out. Next time, try to send more than just your specific location. But you're not really one to send cryptic messages without a reason, are you?" Todoroki created an ice path, causing Stain to create distance, as well as sliding the rest of us away from the fight. "So, I figured you were in trouble and asking for help. Everything's okay. The pro heroes will be here any minute!"

I kneeled down next to my boyfriend, as Todoroki covered us. He was laying down on the pavement, seemingly not able to move. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, just a scratch," he answered. "I know you can regenerate, but don't let him taste your blood."

"Got it."

"Tsutsumi, protect them," Todoroki ordered. "I'll take care of this guy."

I wanted to argue, but he was right. All of my attacks use my own blood. I'm lucky that he didn't lick my blood rope instead of chopping it. He could even paralyze me now if he licks my blood off of the floor. My best option is to remain as back up. I don't have a hero license, so I shouldn't even be in this situation without a pro present. Mirai is going to kill me.
