Help

Two

Tamaki screamed as loud as he could.

He felt a hand over his mouth, muffling the scream, and an arm around his neck.

Mirio's arms seemed to disintegrate.

"Shhh, hey. Come on, be quiet. It's a shame you called the damn pro, he and the other teachers will be here soon. Oh well, I'll make do with the time I have."

Before the copycat could do anything, Tamaki elbowed them in the stomach and ran to the door, unlocking it and running to Nejire's dorm.

He pounded on the door, and Mirio eventually opened it.

"Tamaki? What are you doing here?" Mirio asked.

"Someone is in the dorms. They disguised themselves as you, and I ran up here." Tamaki panted.

"Holy hell, do the pros know?" Mirio asked, pulling Tamaki inside and locking it behind them.

"Aizawa said he and other pros were on their way, but all he knows is that there might be someone in the building." Tamaki said, sitting down to catch his breath.

He reached into his pocket to call the pro, when he realised it was gone.

"Shit."

"What is it?" Mirio asked, instantly concerned. Tamaki didn't cuss often.

"I think I left my phone with the copycat."

At that very second, Mirio got a text.

"What is it?"

" 'Mirio, be careful. There's a copycat in the building. Don't let anyone into your room'. How do I know you're the real Tamaki?"

Nejire had woken up at that point, and was thoroughly confused.

"I'll prove it. Ask me anything, and I'll answer."

"Why is your hero name Suneater?"

"Because I believe you shine like the sun, but you believe I'm brighter. That's where the name Suneater comes from, because you think I'm the one who will shine so bright, I'll eat the light of the sun."

Mirio stared for a second.

"Gah- Sorry! That was really over the top wasn't it? Oh my god, I'm so annoying and you probably find me suspicious now and-"

"Tamaki, calm down. I believe you. I'll call EraserHead, and let him know about the updated situation."

"Listen, whoever this is. I'm busy."

"Eraser, it's Mirio. Tamaki is with me. Someone is definitely in the dorms, they were disguised as me in my room." Mirio said.

"What? Damn it, how did the league of villains get into the dorms?"

"It wasn't the League. At least, not any members we know of. When the person dropped the disguise, their arm disintegrated and turned back to normal. It wasn't the same as Himiko Toga's Quirk." Tamaki said.

"That's somehow worse. We have no clue on how the hell this person's Quirk works now." Aizawa groaned.

There was a knock at the door.

"Amajiki? Are you in there?" Aizawa's voice asked from outside the door.

"Sensei, are you outside Nejire's dorm?" Mirio asked in a whisper.

"No. Do not open the door." Aizawa said sternly.

"Come out, there's nobody here."

The three third years sat in silence, trying to silence their breathing.

"Guess he isn't here. Shame, I wanted to get that Tamaki kid. He'd be helpful." A different voice sighed.

They heard footsteps walking away, but they remained silent.

"Shit, that trick usually works. Guess he really isn't in there. Damn, where is he? Would he 'ave gone to his room? Hm..."

Aizawa hung up the call and was now messaging Mirio.

The other two looked over his shoulder to read the messages.

'Stay wherever you are, don't say a word and don't let anyone into the room. Keep Amajiki safe, this person is after him'

'Yes, sir'

The three sat in silence. Tamaki began to cry silently, and all the other two could do to comfort him was be near him.

Nejire rubbed his back soothingly and the boy fell asleep.

Mirio looked at the bags under Tamaki's eyes and frowned.

'Is it just me or does Tamaki look like he hasn't slept in a while?'

Nejire looked at the message and frowned, too.

'i was just thinking that, you think he's been staying up late or something?'

'Maybe, I dunno.'

"Togata? Are you in there?"

Mirio opened his messages to Aizawa.

'Please tell me you're outside Nejire's door'

'Yes, I am. I take it you are in there with Amajiki?'

'Yes'

There was a clicking noise and the door swung open. Mirio stood up to protect his friends, but saw the UA faculty and relaxed slightly.

The sound of shattering glass came from behind him, and there was a thud.

The blonde span around, and saw Nejire unconscious on the ground and Tamaki missing.
