ten.
"Ahh... you know. The rooftop. They have a pretty nice view here ya know" He said slowly trailing his finger onto Emi's finger and arms.
Shota scowled as Ren touched her. "Emi. be careful." he spoke into their earpiece.
Emi smiled at him and slightly tilted her head to the side before replying "Sure."
***************************************************
Emi keeps a safe distance between herself and Ren while walking to the elevator.. But the man rather likes to be touchier and lightly grab her waist.
Do not engage the target. Just yet, Emi. Calm down.
Emi told herself as she kept herself cool and smiled. Let the man touch a small pattern on her exposed back. It is part of the plan anyway. Part of her wanted to look for Shota, just to make sure he is keeping his eyes on her and the target in case anything happened. But no, she can't make obvious moves. She trusted him, of course she does. She decided to trust her partner and maintained her calm demeanor towards the brunette man beside her.
As he presses the elevator button open, he gestures slightly "Ladies first" he said with a teasing smirk. Emi simply gave him a playful giggle stepping in the elevator followed by him. They stand in silence. The sound could be heard as the sound of the elevator moving towards the rooftop. Emi felt a hand grazing her back.
"What's your name, sweetie?" He looked down, catching Emi's eyes. She has never felt so creeped out by a man before. She managed to maintain her calm expression.
"Fumiko." Emi shut her eyes as she smiled. "Fumiko Aizawa."
"Aizawa... I take it, it's your husband.."
"Yes, very much so"
"That doesn't really matter now does it?" He muttered to himself as he straightened his back after the elevator dings. They've reached the building rooftop.
They both stepped out. Emi's slightly loose strands of hair and dress were blown by the wind. Making her shivered. The walls at the edge only reached until above her knee, she noticed. She looked at her surroundings and sensed a few bodyguards nearby behind them, keeping an eye on her like she wouldn't notice before hearing Ren whisper in her ear.
"Mesmerizing isn't it, hm?" Ren got closer to her, reaching out a hand rubbing her arms, guiding her to the edge to get a better view.. He's way too close now.
"It really is. Do you like the city views?" Emi decided to act clueless.
He nodded, and stared at her face. His gaze changed from the sight of her pretty face back to her lips. He licks his lips. "I do, but I think my current view is better" He grinned in an attempt to pull her closer.
Emi hesitated. What will she do now?
Do not engage the target alone.
She swallows nervously. All these years being a hero suddenly her mind went blank, not knowing what and how to act fast now. She had forgotten their plans they made for this mission. This is so stupid. Is this his quirk perhaps? Or maybe she really has gone blank. She can't think anymore.
SHIT, this isn't the time Emi. Think!!
She scolded herself.
The man pulls her closer and grabs her bottom squeezing it, snapping her from her blank state. Making her accidentally squeak and blushed. Making the man grin with a smug look on his face.
Emi hero instinct kicked in. She didn't even care if there were bodyguards keeping an eye on her. She bent her knee and kicked him on his crotch. The man groaned in pain, his grip on her waist loosen as he cupped his damaged crotch. She managed to get out of his grip and pushed him keeping a good distance in between before spinning around swinging her leg aiming to land a side kick at his head.
It was stopped. When the man managed to grab her leg by the side of his head, nearly knocking him out. Emi's eyes widened.
"You... bitch." He groaned in pain. His grip can almost leave a mark.
Emi panicked. What does she do now? She whipped her head towards where the bodyguards were standing in the dark. She's shocked that all of them seem to lay down on the tiles unconscious.
Then she realized.
"Joke, watch out!" She recognized his voice.
"Eraser!" She shouted with a hint of relief and a happy tone.
She saw him running towards them at speed, out of the dark. After successfully knocking out the bodyguards in silence without either her or Ren noticing.
Emi looked back at Ren. She got out his grip and ducked down to punch his abdomen. Eraserhead attempts to wrap him using his binding cloth after, but the man groans in both pain and struggles against it. Shota pulled him slightly away from Emi who's standing in front of him at the edge of the building huffing out of breath.
"That's your husband huh?" He smirked evilly, fighting the hold of the binding cloth stepping closer to Emi. Shota pulled him with all his might.
"Yeah, that is him." Emi said sternly in between breath furrowing her eyebrows.
"Tch, you whore.." He muttered as Shota pulled his cloth further.
"Back off!" He shouted from behind. Motioning him to back off from Emi.
Ren side eyed him at the corners of his eyes and looked back at Emi. She holds herself back against the wall at the edge, keeping herself steady from the pain on her leg, where he had gripped her tightly before.
"Heh," Ren scoffed. Emi and Shota looked at him slightly confused.
Ren raised his long left leg. And kicked Emi, right on her stomach while she was letting her guard down from the pain. Emi gasped, with an utterly terrified expression, her body slowly falling off of the building.
Shota's eyes widened, petrified from the scene he had witnessed.
"JOKE!" He practically screamed. He ran towards Ren and immediately knocked him out by kicking his head as hard and made him hit the floor with a hard thud. Before gripping the edge of the wall and trying to catch her with his binding cloth.
"Fuck, EMI!" He screamed, watching the sight of her falling. His heart is shattering in a million pieces, he clenched his heart. Feeling sick in his stomach. This shouldn't happen. His binding cloth isn't long enough to reach her. He wanted to jump off of the building and catch her himself, wrapping his arms around her to keep her safe. But instead he's watching her. Falling with a terrified face with the sight of her mouth slightly gaped hand reaching out to him as if he could reach her. Even though he couldn't he still leaned in reaching his hands for hers as she's falling.
He could feel his eyes start to water at the corner and trickle down on his face. His mind starts blaming himself. How he didn't act fast enough, his binding cloth is too short. He couldn't help her quick enough. This is all his fault. He did this.
But all of the sudden. As his eyes were stuck at the sight of the greenette in the gold dress. He saw... red.
A lightning fast figure. Aiming towards her. Red.
The red figure had caught her. Just before a few meters she hit the ground. Shota gasped at the sight.
What the hell...
He kept an eye, watching Emi's body being caught by a mysterious figure as the figure flew at a fast speed upwards. It was too fast and Shota couldn't catch what it was when it flew past him. His hair blew by the speed.
Red... feathers?
His eyes widened. In realization.
could it be...
