Noma

Chapter 1

     Underground hero Eraserhead just finished his nightly patrols of his given sector. Since he isn't an "on call" hero he has been assigned certain places to watch over for villain activity. Which he is completely fine with considering heroes like that don't get a lot of news coverage. EraserHead was walking home enjoying the night air when a hand and cloth covered his mouth and nose. Eraser struggled against the villain almost gaining an upper hand on him when another came and punched him in the gut. Eraser was stilled long enough for the chloroform on the cloth to finally kick in. After the hero was unconscious the two villains drug his body to their car before speeding off to their hideout.

When Eraser woke he was chained to the wall and laying in an awkward position. He blinked his eyes a couple of times to clear the blurriness and looked around. He was chained in a call that seemed to be underground.Most of the other cells were empty except the one next to him and the one four cells down on the other side of the pathway. The next to him has a small child whom doesn't seem to be in any restraints. "Hey kid." Eraser whispers. She turns her head, "Yes?" She quietly whispers back. Eraser slowly takes in her features. She has long black hair, soft facial features and torn clothes. But what really seemed to catch Erasers eyes were hers, they had the same onyx eyes. "What's your name?" Eraser asks trying to move closer. She looks up, thinking. "They call me Noma but my tag says 461." She looks back down, at him. "How long have you been here?" Eraser says, wanting to hear her voice but also gathering information. "Nine years, they give me some cake and a present every birthday." Her lip twitches almost as if she where going to smile.

They continue to talk for awhile, Eraser asking questions and Noma answering them. After she told him that she was there for nine years he started asking questions about the place they where in. He didn't want to hear anymore about her, it would only make him more anxious for his final question. "Do you want to leave?" Noma asks softly, seeing Eraser try to find a way to unchain himself while they were talking. "I do, do you?" Noma thought, she had never even thought about leaving before. There was a distant life she often dreamt about but this was all she knew. "I don't know." She replies softly. "I can help you get out though. You said you wanted to leave, right?" Eraser smiled. "You would have to come with me." Noma thought about it. Leaving with the strange man, who oddly looked like her. "Okay." She gets up and uses one of her quirks to grab the keys hanging by the only solid door. Eraser watches as she unlocks her own door before coming out to unlock his. A ghost of a smile graced her lips and she unlocks the chains binding his hands. "There, all done." She says walking back out of his cell. Eraser didn't even have time to get up before the solid door slammed open to a very angry villain.

"What the hell do you think you are doing 461!" The villain yells at Noma before throwing a projectile stun at her. She falls to the ground in pain, not letting a sound come out. Eraser still in pain from the punch to the gut, now known to have been backed up by some sort of strength quirk, tries to run to the girls aid. The villain starts to aim toward the hero when Noma grabs his arm and breaks it easily. The villain, angered, uses his other hand to shoot a more forceful blast of electricity at her. Noma, now on the ground in serious pain, shoots a little blue blast at Eraser. Once it hits him he feels completely fine. Even his exhaustion is gone. He ran right past the villain and grabbed his capture weapon. Soon after the villain was locked in one of the cells. Eraser picked up Noma and crept out the door, with the tiny girl weakly pointing at the direction that he should go to avoid being spotted. Once they were out of the building Eraser used his capture weapon to sling himself and Noma through the city, straight for the hospital.
