"Are you alright?"Asked the boy vigilante as he helped her sit up.

"I-I'm fine. Just a couple of scrapes and bruises. T-thank you so much! I thought no one would come and save me."

"It's no problem miss. Please do call the proper authorities and alert them of the situation. Have a good night."

"W-wait! Please! What's your name?"

He paused, the words of the illegal hero ringing in his mind.

The fallen vigilante had whispered in his ear.

I believe in you. Dekiru.

"Dekiru" he answered. "My name is Dekiru."

"Well thank you Dekiru!"

She called out as he parkoured out of the alley.

The woman shakily pulled out her phone and dialed the police.

He sat there at the top of a building to watch over her until the authorities arrived.

He heard the sounds of sirens and stood up. The woman looked up at him having seen his silhouette move because of the shadows he cast due to the moon light.

He put a finger to where his lips would be if it weren't for the mask and leapt off into the night.

"Hello miss. Can you tell us what happened?" Questioned a police officer.

"This man tried to mug me."

"And how did he manage to get knocked out?"

She just shrugged. "He must have fainted."

Lying to the police was the least that she could do for the man who had saved both her and her husband's lives.

Looking up at the stars she silently thanked her savior once again.

A tingling sensation had erupted in his chest.

'Was this... what pride felt like?'

He who had been told that he would never amount to anything, just saved someone.

He just saved someone. He actually didn't die. Holy sh*t he just did that.

This feeling... it was strange and new and yet it felt really good.

He felt like he was on cloud nine.

And that adrenaline rush! Man he had finally felt something! He had been feeling kinda numb these past couple of weeks.

The only time he was ever really felt alive was when he found something at the beach to help with his costume or if he had finally mastered a technique that his Sensei had taught him. Other than that he was just going through the motions, the emerald windows to his soul empty.

People who met his gaze on the street tended to look away and give him space while he walked past. His eyes were just so... blank.

But at that moment emotion glimmered brightly in his emerald eyes.

'Was this how it felt to save someone? To actually help people and do good?"

With eyes shining as brightly as the stars above, he ran off to go help as many as he could.

*Dekiru means you can do it.
