"Going somewhere?" A voice calls out before someone steps from the block. They look to be in the same group as the other villains. A smirk falls across his face as he advances on Hagakure.

She backs up into a nearby store front her breath quickening. If she does have Toga's quirk it's not like it's an attack based one. Hagakure can fight, of course, but being on her ankle all day since her injury occurred has made it harder to get an upper hand. He cracks his knuckles and licks his lips.

"You can pretend you never saw me." Her voice quivers as she clenches her hands into fists.

"That wouldn't be half as fun." His smirk gets wider. He gazes down at her exposed and bruised ankle calling out her obvious injury. Excitement burns behind his bluish green eyes. He has a little hero in training right in his rugged hands. Nothing could be better. Murder would get him in trouble but there's nothing better than a little bruising to satisfy his urges.

His fingers turn into sharp claws as he approaches her. She could try to run the opposite direction but every time she puts weight on it, her entire body tries to reject the action. Can she push down this reflex long enough to get away from this aggressive man? Her brain tells her to run but her ankle screams at her to stay put. Death could be around the corner if she listens to her ankle. She swallows the pain and throbbing sensation as the villain rushes her.

Hagakure dodges the attack by throwing herself to the side.

The slash cuts into the glass of the store front. She manages to get to her feet still a little wobbly. He knicks her sleeve with his claws. A scratch causes blood to stain her shirt. She races down the block despite her ankle screaming at her not to. She trips over some debris but is quick to get right back up.

The villain starts to catch up to her with a quickening pace. Her legs feels like it's on fire now but she can't stop. If she can just make it to the police station. Her worries about the villains being from there start to dissipate.

The man cackles out loud. He scratches her back but she keeps on going. The chase excites him the longer it goes on. In the distance she sees the police station.

Covered in flames.
