Shinsou X Neko Reader

Part 14-Confession?

By now, the sun was halfway up in the sky. The light hurt your eyes, and you slit your pupils. You were getting hungry, but you did not want to seem too needy, so you said nothing.

Aizawa yawned. "Well, nothing much has happened since that spider person this morning. And I doubt anything much will happen soon. You guys hungry? We should get lunch." Both you and Hitoshi said yes over-enthusiastically at the same time. You laughed. So you had all been thinking it. Your group started walking towards the local food stalls.

Aizawa had paid for the food, and he had even gotten you your favorite dish, allowing you to choose out of the many vendors. Hitoshi leaned over to you. "Want some of my boba?" he asked. He had already drank about a third of it. You were afraid Aizawa was going to call him out for being inappropriate, but he said nothing. He was either busy or did not care. "Actually, I'd love to, but you already knew I'm lactose intolerant." He appeared surprised, and whether it was genuine or not, you couldn't tell. 

"How would I have known that? I don't stalk you or anything," he replied. 

"I'm surprised you still haven't figured out my quirk yet. After all, you've known me for a long time." He just shrugged, but you saw his brow furrow, and he focused on his phone, looking something up while sipping on his boba.

After eating, you walked around the city. Nothing much interesting happened. There were no other villains. You ate supper, and the sun started going down. You had expected to do more during the day, but the only interesting thing that had happened was when the day started. "Don't be too bummed out. Sometimes hero work is as chill as this. You should be great full for the brief reprises you get." Aizawa said to you out of nowhere. "Yes, sensei," you replied. 

"(Y/N), go over and check out that alleyway. And do it stealthily." Aizawa said suddenly, as if knowing something was off. 

"Yes sir." The alley was long and dark, and there were some strange noises coming from back there. It seems like most crime really happened in scary dark alleyways, reminded of Iida's recent encounter of events with Hero Killer Stain. Aizawa had obviously meant for you to turn into a cat. You had hoped to show off your quirk to Shinsou, but this was not really what you had in mind, nor the time. In a few seconds, your clothes had transformed into a rippling fur coat, and you were once again a tiny little kitty. 

"Oh my gosh, you were in my room! Why would you-" Hitoshi sounded shocked, coughing and choking on his drink. Aizawa thumped his back to help him out. 

"Oops. Guess so." You started padding down the alley. It was a scary world for a little cat like yourself. Thankfully, you were more than a cat, and you had backup waiting in case anything went wrong. You neared the noises; human voices. A loud male said, "Listen up lady, if you don't get us our money in two days, your husband is dead. Your son is dead. Your baby is dead. I will personally strangle them myself. Your type of people is not welcome around here, and if you don't give us some cash, you're all in for it." The woman was dark skinned, wearing a sort of head covering. A religious dispute? You had heard enough. You scampered back to the other end of the alleyway. "There's a woman in trouble with someone threatening her family. Follow me," you said. Aizawa and Shinsou were figuratively on your tail, running after you. 

The man in the alley turned towards you with a malicious smile. "Heroes? You seriously had heroes waiting here for me? You're really a dead woman! My men will kill your family! You don't belong here!" He took out a dagger. You turned into a giant cat like you had done during the sports festival, and pounced on him, pinning him down on the ground before he could act, ypur massive paw straight against his wrist, knocking the dagger out of his hand. You growled at him, a low, menacing sound. Hitoshi used his capture scarf to move the dagger out of the man's reach.
