The Pawn: Able to move two squares forward at the start of the match but only one after. Can't go backwards, only forward. Can become a Rook, Bishop, Knight, or Queen if it reaches the other side of the board. Can only capture diagonally. The Rook: Able to move any number of free squares forward, backwards, and to the sides. The Knight: Able to jump allies and move in any combination of one and two forwards and backwards, can only capture on it's last square. (Example: One forward, two to the left or right. Two forward, one to the left or right. One backwards, two to the left or right, etc.) The Bishop: Moves any number of free spaces diagonally. The Queen: Moves any number of free spaces in any direction. Known as the most powerful and threatening piece on the board. The King: Moves one space in any direction. Protect your king no matter what. If your king is captured, you lose the game. ------------------------ "Checkmate." A green haired male said while smirking. Using his Queen and capturing the king on the other side of the chess board. "Farewell All Might." He chuckled in amusement as the white king clattered onto the board with a loud echoing thud. "How many bodies have piled at the foot of your throne?" A male voice asked. The other male smirked picking up his pile of captured pieces. "Do you count how many bugs you step on? Do you count your kills, Karma?" He asked. Karma shrugged. A chuckle rung through the hideout, a blond haired female with silver eyes stepping out of the shadows. "I count my kills." She declared proudly. "I like knowing how much blood is on my hands." She said with a smirk, sitting across from the green haired male. "I have no doubt about that Elara." The male muttered. "Care for a game? Or is this seat saved for your 'Queen'?" Elara asked, using air quotes. Karma snickers and the green haired male cracks a smile. "Promise not to use your Quirk and a game sounds lovely." He responded. "Deal." Elara agreed.

Scribe has spent her entire life in shame after a single incident during her exchange year at UA resulted in her expulsion from the school. She's dreamed of schoolmate Shota Aizawa ever since, hoping he will forgive her and come for her. Then the USJ incident unexpectedly drags her back into the midst of Japanese hero work from her American bookstore. Except Aizawa isn't the man who comes for her afterward. EXCERPT: "Can I help you?" His face was hidden by the hoodie, but she had an odd feeling he wasn't as old as she'd thought. She could see his mouth. It was wide and generous, but the lips were oddly scarred and chapped looking. "You're the one they call Scribe, aren't you?" He grinned lazily. "I've heard of you." "Really?" She sat up straighter. Her work with heroes was not well known, even though All Might had paid her a visit or two here at the bookstore. For the most part, she was just hero support, and only on very rare occasions. She peered at the hooded figure curiously. "From who?" "We have mutual friends. In Japan." He cocked his head thoughtfully. "I could swear I've met you before. You're very familiar." She had an odd feeling he was right. Though she couldn't quite place him...maybe if he took off his hoodie, though... "You weren't by chance in Japan recently, were you?" He reached across the desk, taking her hand in his as if it were the most natural thing in the world. And I'm letting him. Scribe felt a strange tingle where he touched her skin. It was not an unpleasant sensation. "I... No. I wasn't in Japan." "Really?" He tilted his head to one side and with his free hand, he pushed back the hoodie, revealing a blue-white shock of hair and red eyes. "I could swear I saw you...but maybe sensed is a more appropriate word. Yes, I could swear I sensed you at the USJ when I was taking care of business with All Might and Eraserhead." She gasped, trying to stand, but he laughed. "Don't move too much, pretty. I don't want to hurt you."
