Roman made it to her room before collapsing, she didn't care as her body hit the ground and she didn't mind the throbbing pain she had in her head and horns. Sam carried her to the bathroom and she let her forms drop all the way back to her scarred body. "Sammie did you see what hit me?" Roman said pulling off her shirt and bra to examine the cuts on her body. She needed stitched and proper bandages.

"I didn't see anything, i would have protected you if i did. Everything happened so fast." Sam said his eyes darkened, "there's a spirit that lingers around that asshole, they look like the guardian type." Sam said his eyes turning Red and Roman got back up. Night had just fallen and she hoped Aizawa would be on patrol.

"It's not your fault, i need your help though." Roman said grabbing his icy hands. "When i go into your realm you need to get me outside- fast." Roman said slipping on her bra and her shirt. She changed into a different hoodie and slipped on her bracelet.

"I'll do what i can, Cerberus can watch our six." Sam said and on que he appeared barking worriedly.

Roman took a breath and steadied herself. She walked out of the room and quickly to the balcony, no one was around so she threw herself over. She went into the Shadow Realm and Sam was there to catch her, he ran full speed towards the gate making sure she got around the corner safely.

She dropped out of the Shadow Realm and coughed up the last thing she wanted, blood; a crimson layer of it glistening in the moonlight. Roman looked to Sam for help and he lifted her up gently causing her to groan. She slipped her bracelet off and with the help of Sam made her way to the busy city. The poltergeists had never attacked her this badly before, normally it was just scratches and bruises. Roman coughed again wanting nothing more than to curl into a ball and hide.

"Well you look like shit." Aizawa said from behind her and she turned around to see his face. "That's saying something considering its me saying that to you." Realizing something was wrong his face scrunched together trying to find out what was wrong with her. "What happened? What's wrong."

"Help me." Roman said her knees buckling and her weight falling forward. The last thing she heard was the whine and panicked voices of Aizawa and Sam.

Shōta Aizawa:
Aizawa watched Liberation fall before his feet. From the moment he first saw her he knew something was wrong, she never looked this bad. He didn't know it was something worse, when she fell he instinctively went to flight mode. He grabbed Liberation and took her back to school with him, he would face the consequences later but she was in bad shape. He only touched her jacket and his hand was covered in blood, scrapes on her face and bruises on her arms. It was like she was radiating cold energy.

He scooped her into his arms and called the only person he really trusted. "Hizashi i need your help." He said struggling to carry Roman, he shifted her weight and it was like someone froze his hands in water, though Roman did become lighter and easier to carry.

"What happened?" Hizashi (Present Mic) asked worriedly, "Shōta are you okay?" He asked and Aizawa could hear bed sheets rustling and him nearly falling out of bed.

"Hizashi I'm fine, your not going to like this but the girl i've been hanging around recently is Liberation." Aizawa waited to hear the disapproving grumbles but was only met by the sound of Hizashi putting clothes on.

"Shōta I'm not even going to say anything against that." Hizashi said with a disapproving sigh, "what happened?"

"I'm not quite sure myself, i saw her stumbling around the streets and as soon as i got close enough to grab her she collapsed into my arms." Aizawa said entering the school with Liberation in his hands. "She's bleeding a lot and i haven't checked the wounds, she burning up and i think its infected." Aizawa said seeing Hizashi at the doorway. He hung up and Hizashi jogged to where he was.
