失う - Ushinau - lose

❤|❦|❤





You couldn't move. Your hands were quivering but your feet were firmly set to the ground. You couldn't move, you shaking but not even a finger made a major movement to retreat. Your eyes were fixated at his.

Those turquoise hues were entrancing, alluring to the point that it felt as if his gaze pierced through your heart. Your mind was screaming at you, there were several red flags telling you to run away but you couldn't. You wanted to just snap at yourself and run away quickly, even attack, but you somehow couldn't bear to. The man gave off an aura that felt severely recognizable.

The man was dazed as well, the only difference was that he snapped out of it sooner than you did with a chuckle. "Like what you see dollface?" he taunted, yet hesitation was hidden in his tone.

You also snapped out of it once he spoke. You gritted your teeth and knelt down to the ground on one knee to activate your quirk. The ground around you and the men quickly cracked, but it wasn't enough. 'Damnit, I used too much of my energy in the poisonous fog'

"Still so weak I see" the man chuckled menacingly."Poor little Y/n, still struggling with the burdens in her life, that her quirk is almost as dead as her thoughts" He looked back at you with his piercing gaze, eyes wide open and pupils dilated with insanity. Your mouth went slightly agape as your eyes widened as well. 'Who does he think he is?'

"Feel free to be relieved, I'll cremate that useless self of yours" He said as his hand stretched up to face you. 'Shit!' You reacted quickly and moved to the side but when you looked at him, flames had not come to the area you were in, nor was it even released. You looked behind you and saw the same man behind you, azure flames coming out of his hands, directly coming your way in a span of time that you couldn't dodge. You activated your quick on your body and the flames finally ceased.

"I'm not as weak as you think I am" you snickered standing up. "I'm afraid you underestimated our class far too much" You ran forward to go and attack.

The man's eyes went wide but he cracked a grin as you charged for him. Once you were about to land a hit at him, he ignited a flame on his hand, reaching to the ground. You involuntarily activated your quirk on your leg area to prevent the flames hitting you but your feet sunk into the ground as it turned into dust.

When you fell in, an arm swooped in and went around your upper body. A smirk crawled up his face as you fell limp on his arms. His free hand began to spark with a small dancing blue flame that was merely inches away from your face. Your heart thumped and beat quickly, several thoughts on how to get out and what to do rushed through your mind.

When the flame was about to reach your face, your hand, with your quirk activated, slapped his flame filled hand away from your face. You watched as his hand turned into a slimy substance. Your eyes widened. His arm, face, and body began to dissolve into dust, causing you to fall on the ground with a thump.

You winced but stood back up. You knew full well that it surely wasn't your quirk that had done that. A realization quickly dawned to you. If the guy didn't shoot the fire from the area earlier, how could he have been behind you before even having time to run? And where was the other guy?

You ran back to where you first saw the man, to check if he was there again but it was no good.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

You looked up, whee the sound of the yelling had come from. You spotted a figure against the sky. "Shoji..? Izuku and Todoroki?" You mumbled, seeing them soaring towards the left. You decided to run towards where they were landing.

You ran as quickly as you could, even if their figures had disappeared out of your sight.

You ran faster and saw a clearing in the forest. You stumbled in, attempting not to fall. You saw as the same two men from earlier had gone into your sight, along with a blonde, dual bunned girl, and a masked man. Your eyes trailed over to the closest thing you were seeing. The man from earlier was attacking Todoroki but he was about to protect himself with his fire.

You decided to help by using your quirk on the ground to swallow the man up as Todoroki hit him. Todoroki eyes widened. "L/n, are you alright?" he questioned and you nodded. "I'm fine. What's happening? Where's Bakugou?" you asked back as you neared him.

Todoroki's gaze drifted off to the masked man, "With him" You looked where he was looking and saw him with the guy earlier. 'I knew it, the one back there was a decoy'

When you and Todoroki were about to go to the two men, you and Todoroki stopped at a voice. "'Dollface' huh? You can't seem to get your hands off Dabi, can't you? Bitch, you disgust me" The same voice from earlier had come out from behind you. "Watch out!" Todoroki said and shot the man with Ice.

"Time to run!" Shoji yelled, catching your attention. "That!... Now, now I'm certain, I'm not sure what your quirk is but from the way you were showing off before, these things from your right pocket... are Tokoyami and Bakugou"  Shoji continued as he held his fist out.

"Shoji!" Izuku cried out from joy.

"Great, we're done here," Todoroki said and ran from where you two were, you follow suited.

Suddenly, a swirl of black began to take form in front of you. All of you stopped your tracks. "The warp guy from the USJ" Izuku said.

Warp holes began to appear around the area, retrieving each of the villains one by one, except for the man from earlier, you presumed to be Dabi, by the words of the black and white guy, and the masked man. "Hold on, the target's still..." Dabi trailed off, resenting from entering the black warp hole.

"Yes.. As you appear so pleased with yourselves as to want to come and run. Let me give you a little reward" Mr. Compress said smugly while heading to the black warp hole, holding his top hat and mask. "It's a bad habit of mine. One of the tenets of magic states that flaunting a particular object" he paused to remove his mask. He stuck his tongue out, to reveal two turquoise orbs, causing you all to stare at him in shock. "Is inevitably part of the trick" He said before placing his top hat and mask back on.

He explained how he had prepared decoys for Shoji to be fooled and get them during Todoroki's ice attack while going into the black warp hole. You all attempted to go and catch him, until luckily, a beam of sparkling blue had popped out of the bushes and hit his stomach, making him spit it out.

'Now's our chance!' You thought and jumped to help get Bakugou and Tokoyami, however you fell to the ground, your body unable to do anything anymore from all the energy used up.

You quivered while getting up with a wince. Your eyes widened as you saw Dabi with Bakugou's neck on his hand. You tried to get back up but you stumbled, only for the villains to successfully escape with Bakugou with them.

Your mouth was agape. How? How could that have happened?

At the night of the Beast Forest ambush; the villains had won.
