The MoonLight Artist

*~Chapter 4~*

"What the actual fuck!"

Akaguro exclaimed in shock as the office block was just a pile of rubble, he leapt from rooftops to get a closer view to see if he could spot a villain or hero, there was no caution tape around the area so it must have been the work of a villain he thought to himself. He looked around until he saw that the only thing left standing was the doorframe "I'm surprised a hero hasn't turned up yet" he said but right on cue pro hero Kamui Woods appeared along with an army defence car, two firetrucks and a policeman with a detective.

"Shit this is bad"

Akaguro got to his feet and made a run as far as he could from the area. Something caught his eye from ground level and it was a symbol on the doorframe...

"Heh they got a pro in, I mean come on it wasn't that bad"

I saw that Kamui was there to act as emotional support for the people mostly because when a pro is close everyone calms down, they rely too much on them for everything. Although Kamui was nice, one of the reasons I cause these issues is to try and get the public to open their eyes that a hero can't always solve stuff. I glanced at my symbol which was placed neatly on the untouched doorframe so people know I did it without knowing I did it. Of course a good hero/villain/vigilante has a way of showing off their stuff otherwise what's the point. I debated in my head whether I should stay and watch the show or leave and find out more later. I decided that I'll head off and listen to the news that night. I put all of my things in my bag and leapt off the building.

When I was on the ground I looked at my wrist and smiled at the tattoo of my symbol with the words Moonlight Artist underneath. I walked off and felt satisfied with my work and was ready to head home and have a well earned break of drawing. I walked for a while but I got a bit bored so I used my knowledge of gymnastics and scaled a nearby building and ran across rooftops for 15 minutes until I mistook my calculations of my next jump causing me to fall into the alley below. When I hit the ground I let out a silent "what the hell" thankfully I landed on my feet and I dusted myself off, it was around 2:00 pm so I decided to walk home which was one and a half hours away from north end but I can make it in 1 hour. I chose to walk for a bit so I can recover from the previous fall. As I continued along I bumped into someone and fell over, I got up and apologized right away without looking at the person.

Akaguro had found a quiet street to walk through and as he was walking he wondered to himself why there was Tsuki's symbol on the doorframe, before he left he took a moment to check the switchblade she gave him and compare the signature image and they were identical. Was she the cause of the incident he pondered, no she couldn't have she is in east end why would she go to north end to- He felt someone bump into him and saw the small person fall, they got up but he couldn't make out who it was until he saw the persons short lilac hair and pale skin...

"Tsuki, is that you"

he said gruffly

"oh sorry... wait who are y- you're the guy from last night arent you?"

the girl questioned.

"Yes it's me, are you ok?" he asked with a hint of concern.

"I'm fine, what are you doing here?"

the girl was clearly surprised and worried why he was there.

Why was the man from last night in north end? I questioned in my head, my mind was dazed probably because I fell twice in the same minute, or so it felt like.

"I was patrolling, What're you doing in north kid?"

he looked dumbfounded at the whole situation that occurred today.

"Well you see I wanted to test how far I could go with my quirk..."

I explained what my reasoning was for being in this part of town and came to the conclusion

"who are you and why are you?"

I asked the man before me in a child-like voice.

"You know what I should tell you a bit about me"

he rolled his eyes and motioned for me to walk beside him "my name is Chizome Akaguro and you could say I am an anti-hero and like you I am solo but I have a job on the sidelines as a hero"

he continued off but changed suddenly before he got too deep and said

"so you're telling me that you had demolished a building just using your quirk alone?"

"uh-huh I sure did"

I smile in an unnerving fashion at the man beside me.

Was Tsuki hiding something? Akaguro asked himself as he and the girl walked side by side. She paused

"A-Akaguro? Do you have a home?"

the girl asked with concern.

"Yes in fact I do, I live in an apartment block in east end next to the train station"

he told her his address in an honest to god tone.

"I sure am happy to hear that" she said

"do you live alone?" she asked

"yes I do, why?"

he was getting concerned at this point not for himself but for the girl.

"No reason"

Tsuki replied. They continued along side by side

"can you jump from buildings, Akaguro?" Tsuki asked.

"Yes I can"

the man answered...

"well what are we waiting for"

the girl exclaimed with joy. So the two had started challenging each other to who can do it better.

Half an hour later I forgot about my concern as this man called Akaguro and I had messed around leaping from rooftops. We were a puffed out, laughing mess when we came to a stop. I knew that after that I could trust this man with my life. I checked the time and it was past 3:00 and we were in east end before we knew it. "We should head home now," I stated.

"That's most likely a good idea, it is getting late"

he agreed

"I'll see you soon then Akaguro, stay safe"

I waved goodbye and set off for home!
