Bundles of cars and lights flashed from the downtown Masutafu as the life of the city erupted just after midnight. Various clubs blasted party music while midnight runners jogged to the tune of their heavy breathing. Wind flowed through the trees, shaking its leaves softly as various twigs and bulbs shivered gently.
On a building just up in front the nearby villian agency, Eri pushed the hair from her face, relishing the view from the eight story hotel. She kicked her legs freely, untucking her tail coat from beneath her. She fiddled with the ear piece in her ear, a muffled static prevailing just slightly into her ear. Many people below hadn't noticed her, instead preoccupied with this nights partner or with a drunken friend collapsed onto the floor. Eri giggled to herself, pulling out her small notebook from her pocket, silently sketching a diagram of the agency, as well as a few villians leaving it.
She had somewhat attained the habit from Izuku, through watching him during phone calls and meetings.
A loud siren rang out, causing her to jump, almost dropping her notebook. She sighed slipping it into her pocket, clasping her hands into mock binoculars over her eyes to look at the doorway. Heroes surrounded the place, barricading the area with heavy duty shields.
Eri giggled, standing upwards, brushing herself off before turning to the adjacent edge of the building. With a small breath, she sprinted towards the edge, leaping of it to land on the building across. Through various acrobatics, Eri leapt from building to building, eventually arriving on top of the agency. She pulled a black and white mask from her backpack, which she strapped to her face.
Through the intercom of her ear piece, she hear a loud whirring sound, much to her discomfort. Through the static a simple request could be heard.
"Send backup."
Eri looked over the edge of the building, examining the distance down. Noticing a piece sticking out just above the doorway, she smiled, standing back and before leaping of the building gave a singular reply.
"Roger."

The darkness was captivating in a way. The way the shadows twisted and contorted around existing frames and wires as metal beams intertwined with each other in a midnight dance. The abandoned scaffolding radiated loss as the solemn creaks of wood apon rusted metal reverberated across his eardrums.
Izuku leaned on the damaged railing, looking just across the street to a riot of sorts near the hero agency, local to the city. Just across the way, he saw a familiar white haired girl dashing across rooftops, leading a group of beaten and bloodied villians away from the sight. Izuku noticed various heroes attempting to chase the tired lot.
"Well, if ones things for certain, she definitely has some strong capabilities. Though, I didn't exactly expect her to jump of the damn building." Izuku chuckled to himself, strapping his own mask onto his face. "Once again kid, you never fail to surprise me."
Izuku activated One for All in his leg, kicking of the roof in the opposite direction of the villians. The heroes giving chase noticed, whirling around in utter surprise to see an iconic figure dashing across the rooftops. One grabbed a police officers walkie-talkie and with a frantic voice said. "I have my eyes on Genocider, repeat, I have my eyes on Genocider. He's heading Northeast of the hero agency. Requesting immediate back-up."
The hero dropped the walkie-talkie and with a few heroes in hand, began to chase after the masked man. Eri herself whirled around, and smiled to herself noticing the tall individual. "Once again Izuku, you've out done us all. Hey, head back to the base. I'm going to meet up with Izuku!"
Before the group could even protest, Eri jumped away into the direction of Izuku. She grinned as the familiar wind once again blew through her ear as she leapt from railing to railing. She loved the feeling of flying high above the heads of those down below, masked by buildings and unseen by anyone. "I'm...a ninja!" Eri chuckled to herself breathlessly.
