~~~{Suraki's POV}~~~

I don't know when it happened, but I ended up falling asleep. For sure I knew it was sometime after Nosido had. I woke up to the sound of the door slowly creaking open. Who was here? Visiting hours were over by now right? I soon raised my head, looking towards the door. I saw some stranger standing in the doorway. The desk lamp was shining enough light to allow me to see who the stranger was.

It was a taller man, wearing a dark grey hoodie, his hair had black roots and as it went further down his hair turned red. I stood up, my chair screeching behind me slightly since I pushed it back a bit from the way I stood up.

"There wasn't supposed to be anyone in the room... Oh well.. Collateral damage never hurt.." He shut the door behind him, breaking the door knob off and tossing it to the side.

"Who are you? Were you the one who did this to Nosido?"

"So that's his name? Then I picked the right person based off looks alone... Back off, kid, and I'll make sure you will get out of here unharmed.."

"You aren't going to do anything more to him. Not on my watch.." I stared at the stranger, getting ready for his next move. The stranger soon shook his head, chuckling softly.

"Such a stupid child... If only you knew what I could do." I saw him pull a knife out from his hoodie pocket, then he charged forward. Before he got too close I activated my Quirk, quickly I swiped my arm upwards and around the bed. In an instant a large wall of ice formed, loud cracking being heard of the air freezing as the ice formed. Quickly I turned to Heraki, unplugging him from the IV and Heartbeat monitor, which made him jolt awake from the sharp pain of the IV being pulled out.

"O-OW! Suraki what's going on!" I didn't have time to answer him, quickly I picked him up, activating my quirk again as I smashed the window with a ball of ice, the wind blowing into the room once the window was broken. I could hear the attacker breaking through the ice wall behind us. Nosido stared wide eyed over my shoulder. "S-Suraki! Suraki go!"

I swiftly jumped out the window, holding Nosido tightly in my arms to not drop him, I formed a slope of Ice underneath us as we began to slide down the ramp to the street below. I broke the ice behind us so the attacker couldn't follow, and my feet hit the road with a loud clack of my shoes colliding with the pavement. I looked up to see the stranger standing at the window. Watching us from above. I turned and ran, still having Nosido in my arms.

I didn't stop running, not until we were a good few blocks away from the hospital as I finally set Nosido down, and sat beside him. Taking a moment to catch my breath.

"S-Suraki... That was the guy who... ran into me before my heart attack." That confirmed my suspicions. Whoever that was, was the one who did this to Nosido. I looked over, placing my hand on Heraki's shoulder and speaking calmly.

"Can you walk, Nosido?"

"I-I think so... We need to get back to UA." I simply nodded in agreement. I stood up and helped him to his feet before walking with him in the direction of the UA campus. I kept a vigilant eye around us to make sure that we weren't being followed or snuck up on. The walk back to UA was quiet, which helped me relax. I'm sure that our visitor won't be coming back... Not tonight at least...

My mind was racing with thoughts, did that really happen? No, it can't have. This is all just a dream, yeah. A dream... But I knew that it wasn't, I was only trying to calm myself down. My heart was beating fast, I was terrified. Why would someone try to kill me? What reason could I have given to warrant my attempted murder? I must have had a pretty terrified expression on my face, because I felt Suraki's hand on my shoulder. He had stopped walking and was looking down at me.
