"Uhh maybe?"

I said innocently. She smiled.

"It was a yes or no question!"

She said giggling. I sighed.

"Okay, yes I was in his room, but only because we were-"

"K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

She sang as she got up from her bed.

"No."

I said sternly.

What is her deal?

I thought as I took out my phone to check the time. It was two in the morning. I had about an hour to get ready. I grabbed my clothes and ran to the bathroom. As I quickly got dressed, I found myself looking in the mirror. I didn't look too much like a villain, so that was good. I decided to take my braid and twist it into a bun to keep my hair out of my face. I looked in the mirror once again.

"Am I really about to do this?"

I whispered to myself. A loud knock on the door interrupted my thoughts.

"Eria hurry up!"

Toga said.

"Sorry! I'm done now!"

I said as I picked up my clothing and opened the door. I saw Toga with her costume. It had a lot of equipment for it. She hurriedly rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door behind her. I threw my clothing into my backpack and packed up everything from the hotel room. I opened my phone to check the time, it was only 2:10. Fifty more minutes. I sighed as I took out my phone to inspect my hair one last time. I hated how the layers in front of my face were still out. I pinned them back tightly so they wouldn't get in my face when we were battling against the villains. I looked at myself through my phone one last time. I thought I looked somewhat decent. I checked the time again. It was 2:22. I sighed. Time was going by so slow. Suddenly I heard the bathroom door bust open.

"Toga?"

I asked as I stood up panicked. She stepped out smiling.

"Oops!"

She said giggling. I looked at her costume. It looked like a schoolgirls uniform but she had a creepy mask on and a utility belt which seemed to have the purpose of holding something.

"What do you need that thing for?"

I asked pointing to her belt. She smiled.

"My quirk of course!"

She said beaming.

"What exactly is it?"

I asked.

"Basically by ingesting someone's blood I can turn into that person and even mimic their voice! The more blood I consume, the longer I can be that person! I also need this to carry blood just in case I need to turn into anyone specific. And this thing."

She said as she pointed to a needle-like object.

"Lets me suck my victims blood!"

She said with a wicked grin on her face. I looked at her wide-eyed.

"So any questions?"

She said cheerfully.

"Um, none."

I said nervously smiling.

"I'm so excited we get to kill people today! So much blood!"

She said as she spun in a circle. She suddenly stopped.

"Is that really your hero costume?"

She said pointing to my outfit.

"Oh no! There was no way I was going to wear my hero costume! This is just an outfit I can fight in that's all."

I said smiling. Toga looked at me confused.

"What does your hero costume look like?"

She asked.

"Oh um, I'll show you on my phone!"

I said as I pulled up a picture. I showed it to her.

"Pretty!" Oh Eria you're so pretty, no wonder why Dabi chose you!"

She said blushing. My cheeks heated up with embarrassment.

"Definitely not. But thanks."

I said smiling. She frowned but suddenly smiled as if an idea popped into her head.

"What if I make you a villain costume when you finally join the League!"

She said grinning.

"Oh there's no need. I won't be joining them anytime soon."

I said.

I have no idea what she would even have in mind for me.

I thought as I continued to look at her.

"Why don't we make it now! Can I make some adjustments to your clothes?"

She said as she pulled out a knife. I looked at her wide-eyed.

"How about no? I like my clothes just the way they are!"

I said smiling. Toga frowned as she put the knife away.

"You're so not fun! But, I'm being serious about that villain costume!"

She said smiling.

"I can't wait!"

I said sarcastically. I pulled out my phone to check the time. It was 2:50. Ten more minutes.

"Can time go by any faster, I wanna kill people!"

Toga whined as she twirled her knife in her hand.

Can time just freeze so I won't have to kill people?

I thought as I checked on the latest news. Nothing new just more Overhaul aftermath. I continued to read the latest articles about it. He was successfully detained and put in the villain prison, which was a relief. The reports stated that both his arms were amputated, meaning he was basically quirkless. Which was a relief, no more of his crazy "no quirk" world. After reading a couple of articles on the incident I read the time. It was 2:55.

"Toga lets go."

I said as I put my phone in my pocket. She smiled.

"Yaay!"

She said as we walked out of the hotel room, I walked out but not before grabbing the room key. We walked along the narrow hallway and entered the lobby to see that Dabi was in the lobby already. He looked up and smiled at us.

"They're on the second floor in room 233. Let's go."

He said as he swiftly turned around. Toga and I followed him as we quietly climbed up the stairs to the second floor. We walked down the dimly lit hallway until we suddenly stopped.

"This is the room."

Dabi whispered. Blue flames appeared in his left hand as he prepared to attack.

"Stay out here Eria, things could get messy."

Dabi said as the flames intensified.

Here we go.

I thought as I stood in the hallway.
