"Let's just get this over with."

LaToya sighed and cracked her knuckles. "I might end up in trouble with Edgeshot, but what matters now is that we take this poser out."

"So this guy uses people's blood to paralyze his victims?" Shouto asked stanced in combat.

"Yeah. That's right." Toya answered.

"All we have to do is keep our distance and---" Without warning a dagger quickly scarred Shouto's left cheek, bleeding out a small streak of blood.

A few more aimed at Kunoichi but she dodged every single one with her shadow katana. The Hero Killer then pounced towards the two, first trying to lay a sharp knee kick to Nyx only to dodge. Stain looked up and the two followed also. A blade belonging to Stain was quickly falling back to the floor towards either Stain or Todoroki. But that was a distraction to attempt to lick Todoroki's cheek wound.

"Oh no, you don't!" Kunoichi quickly summoned a large battle mallet from the shadows and made a heavy baseball swing at the Hero Killer. Bashing him back into the nearest wall. Todoroki came through with a wave of ice headed towards the Hero killer, LaToya then ambled towards the injured Iida.

"Damn, he got you a bit too hard. Pause," Toya looked at his shoulder wound. "Don't get involved in this, Kunoichi. This is my fight and mine alone."

"What are you talking about?" Toya narrowed her eyes.

"I inherited my brother's name, so I'm the one that's supposed to stop him! The Hero Killer is mine!" Iida exclaimed, yet he still struggled to move even without the paralysis on him.

Toya's eyes dulled and gave him a look of pure disgust. "So you're Ingenium now? That's pathetic."

Iida lightly gasped, he couldn't look up at Tpya but he felt a cold energy reverberating around her. "Heh. The Ingenium I've heard of never had that pathetic look of defeat on his face. You've hit rock bottom, even for you."

"Kunoichi is right, you've grown a dark side," Shouto verbalized. Just as Todoroki tried to block off the murderous villain with his flames and ice.

Toya internally noted that he wasn't the only one with a dark side. "And it certainly doesn't fit you."

"You've blocked your field of vision from an opponent that's faster than you," Stain rose from the broken ice and pounced toward Todoroki. "Rookie mistake!"

"Come and get me then!" Shouto shouted in defense but then received stabs on his left arm.

"Todoroki!" Toya flinched at incoming blades towards her; only to deflect them back with her katana. She zoomed after the Hero Killer with her ninja-like speed, using her Katana to attack skillfully. But then received a knee kick to her elbow, and the spiky kneepad pierced her arm. "Dammit!"

"Your fighting style and speed are far too professional for a child, almost somewhat to my level. You have such potential. Looks like you have been trained well," Stain booted her to the ground, and she landed flat near the Pro Hero Native.
