A crimson streak of liquid raced down the alley way towards a scared girl who sat there, in a ball crying. The girl's body trembling as if the ground below her was having an isolated earthquake. As the liquid drew closer she frantically tried to move backwards to avoid it, however this would prove to be a useless maneuver as the wall behind her pushed her towards the blood. The girl's eyes traced the trail of the blood several meters to a pile of bodies stacked upon each other, each body... lifeless. Next to the bodies stood "him". A tall silhouette of a man that began to walk closer, which would cause the girl to become even more scared and begin to bang her fists on the wall behind her. She would attempt to scream in hopes that someone would help her escape what seemed like a nightmare, but her screams would not leave her lips as they were silent. It seemed the harder she tried to get away or get help the worse her situation got. The silhouette would stop walking and break out into a sprint before leaping into the air and sprouting wings. This ebony bird began to soar towards her with its Talons aimed right at her. The girl would open her mouth once more to let out a scream but the bird would place it's talons around her mouth before-
"Shit!"
Kuvira awoke. The hero in training would find herself not only covered in sweat, but her bedsheets would be drenched from her body liquids. She would place her hand over her left breast to feel her heart pounding at an unhealthy rate. The room was dark so she could tell that it was about three to five in the morning. Kuvira reached over to her drawer and began to feel around inside for a bottle of pills. Ever since her encounter with the man that called himself "Nike" a few months ago, she would find herself having different variations of this same dream. This time however it was the first time the silhouette turned into a bird of any kind. Maybe she was getting better? She thought to herself. The dream would always stop just before she was captured by whoever her capturer would be that night.
Kuvira found the bottle she was looking for, before dumping the remaining few pills into her hand. She would then turn her head up and toss the pills into her mouth and proceeded to swallow them. A few weeks ago Kuvira decided to Google a cure to stop these recurring dreams or "Nightmares" but could not find anything. She did however find these sleep pills on some website created by some woman named Dr. Moira. Google found no result when she looked this person up. Kuvira did not care much about her origins but found her name to be odd.
Kuvira figured if she did not fall asleep then she would not have to deal with these dreams. Yesterday she figured she would try to get some sleep to see if she had been cured, but she can now see this would not be going away anytime soon. The events of that night in her battle with Nike were haunting her. The thought of those men and women having families and people depending on them made Kuvira want to breakdown and cry, however she refused to do so. If she had then she felt Nike had won.
He got away but this fight, no this war against evil was far from over. Weeks after the deaths of those police officers and thugs, Kuvira reached out to the families and friends of the victims and Promised each of them that she herself would bring the man that called himself Nike to an early grave. She would not kill him herself, however she would do her best to make sure that he gets the death penalty via electric chair.
The only problem, or at least one of the problems is that Kuvira was still a student. She had gotten into serious trouble for attempting to catch the man on her own and would be doing the U.A equivalent of detention after class. This did not bother her however. She felt she deserved worse than detention as she felt the blood of those officers were on her hands.
The second problem is his quirk. How would one contain him? Even if she beat him unconscious, he would simply wake up later. When he awakes he would be well rested and just phase out of whatever bonds constricted him. There were certain people that could temporarily deactivate his quirk but they would not be able to hold him until his death sentence. Kuvira let out a sigh before shaking her head. These were problems for another day.
Kuvira shook the pill bottle before tossing it on the floor out of frustration, towards her roommate's bed. The prince would be sound asleep which Kuvira was thankful for. She feared he or a classmate would eventually start asking questions about why she was acting so weird and she did not plan on speaking about it.
The bottle of pills were expensive and Kuvira needed more if she were going to get through the rest of this semester at U.A. Sadly the last of her money would have been used up already and she had no job as it would take time away from her studies. Kuvira noticed the snoring roommate next to her once more. Apparently he was pretty wealthy being a prince and all but Kuvira was worried that if she asked for money, he might want some "Company" in return for compensation. A "man" was not something that interested Kuvira or at the very least not at this moment in time.
"I've got to find a job"
Kuvira reached over to her drawer and grabbed her Uphone 7 plus. The phone was bigger than her hand and was painted gold. The protective case however would be the color green, Kuvira's favorite. She would place her thumb on the circle in the center of the screen and unlock it. The wallpaper that would be covered by several apps that Kuvira downloaded would be a picture of her and Suyin. She remembered this day as it was the day U.A sent her the costume that she wears. The picture reminded her of a time when she thought being a hero was a little bit easier than it actually is.
Kuvira went to a multipurpose website called "Bobslist". Here you could search for jobs, events, items, and even someone to fuck. The jobs were the only thing she was interested in at the moment.
As she scrolled what seemed like a never ending webpage, she came across a security job. Apparently some musician was going to be holding a concert in NY and they needed a little extra muscle. Interviews would be held at 8 am.
Kuvira looked at the top right of the phone screen and it read 5 am. Kuvira would begin the get ready, before heading out. She wanted to arrive early and make a great impression on her soon to be employer. Also the bus ride out there would be about an hour and thirty minutes. It would take her an hour to get ready.
Exactly two hours and thirty minutes minutes later, Kuvira had arrived at the location via bus. She carried with her a bag, and in her bag was her phone, charger, and any other items she felt she would need. Of course her suit would be underneath her current clothing.
The location appeared to be someone's house. Kuvira cautiously approached the door while looking around. Before Kuvira could knock on the door, it opened. She would be greeted by a towering African American man wearing a pair of timberland boots. The man had a swirl from his hairline going towards the top of his head. It was a nice design. Kuvira would think that he was some kind of thug if it were not for the expensive looking suit that he was wearing, and the shiny piece of gold on his wrist that nearly blinded Kuvira when she gazed upon it.
"you lost little lady?"
"I'm here for the security position."
Kuvira would hold up her phone that she got from her bag as he spoke, to show the ad. The man chuckled.
I'm afraid you ain't what we looking for. We need people that can fight, not cheer.
Kuvira looked the man up and down before dropping her bag. She would then walk backwards away from the door into the yard.
Come over here and let me show you what I can do.
I don't hit girls
Pussy
This enraged the man. He would walk towards Kuvira and without hesitation he would begin to launch a wild haymaker. Kuvira thought it was odd that he would be launching a punch before he even got near her but before she even noticed the man was right in her face; his speed was blinding. Kuvira would put her arm up to the side of her head in attempt to block the swing as fast as she could, but the force behind it would send kuvira almost flying across the yard before falling to the ground. He was clearly superior to Kuvira in strength due to his large stature, however he had the speed of someone in the feather weight division which was odd for a big man. That speed was unnatural for a human being and this made Kuvira believe he has some kind of enhancement quirk. Kuvira would place her hands face down on the ground to get up, while she did this she simultaneously coated her body in earth in preparation to deal with this man's attacks.
That's enough. Come on inside so we can talk about your pay.
Kuvira let out a audible "Huh?" In response to the man's words.
If you can take one of my punches then you should be alright. Also I saw the U.A logo on your Bag. Then your quirk appears to be at least earth manipulation. If you can manipulate just any material that would even better for us. You pass.
Kuvira would scratch her head before following the giant. She looked around as she walked, seeing if anyone was around to witness what has just occurred.
When she entered the house a pungent smell of marijuana danced under her nose. Another man walked out of a room in the back with a joint in his mouth. He placed a mini speaker down on the table before blasting music through it from his Uphone 8 plus. Kuvira wanted the newer model but it was too expensive for her.
Sup lil mama. Wanna take a hit?
I believe I'm alright. Mr. uhh I'm sorry I didn't catch your name.
Call me Sterling. The man you see getting stoned is your client. His name is Jaylen but tonight you'll be calling him by his stage name. Jcold.
Kuvira's eyes widened as she heard the name. Thee Jcold? He was an artist that her roommate Arthur listened to ALOT. At one point Arthur said he would "Dick ride thy dick". Jcold is the only artist to go double platinum with no features. His album " Tree Mountain Road" charted number one for weeks and was played everywhere. Not only was he a great artist, but a speaker against the mistreatment of Quirkless individuals. Kuvira lucked up getting someone so successful since she was low on money.
You ain't gotta worry about money as long as I *Cough cough* come home alive.
Wait? Come home alive? Kuvira expected to be holding back a few crazed fans and at most having to deal with some drunk girl trying to climb on stage and risk it all. The situation was worse than she initially thought.
Jaylen pissed off quite a few people during his last interview. He called out several large businesses for their mistreatment of Quirkless individuals which caused them to lose quite a bit of money. While I don't believe they gonna try and kill him we just wanna make sure. You with us?
Kuvira nodded and agreed to do the job despite the potential risks.
Since we're working together we should tell each other about our quirks. I have earth manipulation as you deduced earlier. Yours is?
You've already seen mine. I'll let you figure it out.
It's gotta be an enhancement quirk. You're quite fast for a big fella.
Sterling laughed before nodded his head. He would then stand up and walk to Jcold before taking the blunt from his hand that was held out towards him. He inhaled deeply causing the blaze at the end of the joint to rapidly race up the blunt, creating a ton of ash in its wake. As he exhaled a sea of smoke filled the room.
Sterling would remove the blunt and offer it to Kuvira. She would shake her head and nudge his hand away. She could not afford to mess this job up. Kuvira spoke with Sterling and Jaylen for the rest of the day about the plans for the concert.
[/br]
A long, black, shiny...limo would arrive in front of the house hours later. The sun would have went to sleep by now and the stars would be littered across the sky. Kuvira, now dressed in a professional matte black suit, would open the back door and allow Jaylen and Sterling to get in; her costume underneath. Several other security guards arrived during this time skip and they would be following, as well as leading the limo to the concert stage. Kuvira would get in the car at the very end, following the limo, with another woman in the driver's seat. Her skin was purple and she smelled of lavender. Kuvira got a good look at her face and could see she was quite gorgeous as well.
As the car got closer a loud roar could be heard from the crowd that gathered to see Jcold. The stage would be lit up and had a gigantic sign with Jaylen's On stage nickname written across it. The cars would park out back and Jaylen would leave his car after the other guards got out first. Kuvira, the purple skinned woman, and several other guards were not going to be stage side. Instead they were to go to the buildings surrounding the stage and set up on top of them.
Sterling approached Kuvira and extended his hand outwards to offer her a black metallic object. Kuvira immediately pushed his hand away.
I refuse to use a gun Mr. Sterling
Haha calm down, It's a walkie. If y'all gonna be set up on that building we all gonna need some sort of communication.
Kuvira grabbed the walkie talkie from Mr. Sterling and head towards the building, with the others. Once atop the building they would each send a message via walke to Mr. Sterling telling him they were in place and the concert could begin. Before Kuvira went on top of the building she would make sure to bring some earth with her by once more wearing her Earth armor, then shedding it once on top to have it on standby. The concert would begin.
The sounds of fans cheering and singing would echo throughout the city block. The crowd would sing along with each and every line as Jcold rhymed.
Ain’t a way around it no more, I am the greatest
A lotta niggas sat on the throne, I am the latest
I am the bravest, go toe to toe with the giants
I ain’t afraid of you niggas, I’ll end up fading you niggas
Kuvira listened as even the white fans in the crowd repeated these lines word for word.
As Kuvira looked around she noticed the other guards each had some sort of weapon. Each one carrying a melee weapon of some sort. Everyone except the purple woman. She carried what seemed to be some of rifle. It was quite large as she held it with both of her hands. With her standing Kuvira could get a really good look at the woman's body. Not that she wanted to look but more so just something she could see. The woman was taller than Kuvira and had a little extra junk in the trunk. She would be positioned on the other side of the building from Kuvira, and had she not Kuvira would have made sure to introduce herself properly. This positioning had to be maintained because if the walkies got too close to each other a loud screeching noise would erupt from their collective speakers.
Ahh what the hell. Sterling said himself nothing would happen. I'll leave my Walkie here and go talk to her and in the event that something goes wrong I can hear about it from her walkie.
Kuvira Sat her walkie down next to the earth she brought up. Noticing the earth she decided to take some over to the purple skinned goddess in order to show off her quirk. Kuvira grabbed two handful and shoved them in each of her jacket pockets. The Earthbender would then walk over to her and speak once she got close enough.
Hey there uhh...purple lady? I didn't quite catch your name on the ride here. Our car ride was pretty silent. My name is Kuvira.
The woman turned quickly to face Kuvira, her gun aimed in the same direction, pointing at the bender. She was clearly surprised to see Kuvira. The sound of the crowd would rise even more as Jcold got more energized.
Woah Woah! I didn't mean to startle you.
You should be standing over there...w-where is your walkie?
I-I left it over there...
I got her moaning J. Cold, they used to say Jaylen
I never change, I’m like a corpse in a coffin, six feet shit’s deep
The woman looked at the watch on her wrist as if she were late to some kind of appointment. The gun would be slightly lowered however still held by both hands. Kuvira also noticed the woman's accent was that of the French. Kuvira became even more intrigued by the woman.
Look I've kinda been looking at you posted over here for a bit and thought you could use a little...company. I'm also pretty interested in your look...by that I mean your lovely purple skin. What kind of Quirk do you possess?
My inhibition’s fighting my intuition
Premature premonition, showing me the demolition!
Of these phony niggas, so ahead of my time!
Even when I rhyme about the future I be reminiscing
You want the truth well come and listen!
My name is not important to our mission. Now go back to your walkie before I tell the big one.
By "Big One" Kuvira assumed that she meant Sterling. Seeing as she could not afford to lose this job Kuvira turned around and began to head back.
SHIT!
The the sound of what sounded like a timer began to ring behind Kuvira. It was coming from the woman. Kuvira turned around and looked at her holding her wrist trying to adjust the watch. Out of the corner of Kuvira's eye she would see sparks of electricity for a brief moment, followed by each security guard dropping to the ground. Were they attacked by some electricity quirk? She could tell they were still alive as their hearts kept beating, only incapacitated. Kuvira quickly turned back to the woman.
All you had to do was stand at your post and you couldn't even do that right.
Her gun would now be raised to Kuvira's face. Looking around she quickly figured out what was going on. The walkies! This woman had no walkie at her side. The timer was for the walkies to be set off with whatever electric attack just happened.
My name is Widowmaker and I'm here because I've been hired to take out the one they call "Cold". Had you stayed at your post you might have lived to read about it on your " Tweeters".
This woman clearly did not use Social Media at all.
I'm afraid I can't let you do that. And here I was trying to shoot my shot. I figured me and you would end up wrestling tonight but now I see it won't be the fun kinda match.
Widow dropped the gun and slowly put her hands up. Kuvira walked forward and grabbed her by the left arm in an attempt to restrain her. Suddenly a sharp pain could be felt in Kuvira's side, the woman had some kind of claws and used them to penetrate Kuvira.
That hurt! Now I'm gonna haf ta takebhduebso...
Kuvira would begin to slur her words as her vision also begun to the blur. Her legs would buckle before dropping to her knees, her right arm reaching up at widow trying to cling to her. She could feel her heart begin to slow down and could feel each beat clearly.
What...did...you...do...to me?
You asked to see my quirk earlier, no? Widowmaker is more than just a code name little one.
Widow picked up her rifle once more and placed the stock over her shoulder. She would slide the handle forward and the iron sight would raise forth as well as the barrel of the gun. A long pipe would come from within the gun and below the iron sight was a scope. The gun had turned into some kind of sniper hybrid and she immediately set her sights, and scope, down at Jcold. She would walk towards the edge and aim.
One shot...One kill
NO!
Kuvira thrusted her arm forward preforming a punch. Although she could not reach her with the punch, the earth that Kuvira had in her pocket responded to her will. Widows arm would be knocked the the left just as she fired her shot. The shot would miss wildly but now alert all below to her presence. This would cause the guards below to immediately run to Cold and shield him before taking him back stage. Kuvira would fall back to the ground on her back.
Damn it girl I ought to to kill you.
Widow pressed her hands to her head and pressed what seemed to be an ear piece.
The target got away. Some girl decided to play hero and mess up my shot. What do you mean go after him? I only had the one shot so I'm all out of ammo. I'll meet you at the spot we agreed upon reaper. Be there to pick me up.
Widow walked over to Kuvira as she lay on the ground. She placed a foot onto Kuvira chest before tossing her gun over her shoulder, pointing it towards the sky. She would say something to Kuvira that she could not understand. Whatever this poison was was affecting her senses and now her hearing was gone for the moment. The woman would then walk away. Kuvira's eyes closed as she finally passed out.

A crimson streak of liquid raced down the alley way towards a scared girl who sat there, in a ball crying. The girl's body trembling as if the ground below her was having an isolated earthquake. As the liquid drew closer she frantically tried to move backwards to avoid it, however this would prove to be a useless maneuver as the wall behind her pushed her towards the blood. The girl's eyes traced the trail of the blood several meters to a pile of bodies stacked upon each other, each body... lifeless. Next to the bodies stood "him". A tall silhouette of a man that began to walk closer, which would cause the girl to become even more scared and begin to bang her fists on the wall behind her. She would attempt to scream in hopes that someone would help her escape what seemed like a nightmare, but her screams would not leave her lips as they were silent. It seemed the harder she tried to get away or get help the worse her situation got. The silhouette would stop walking and break out into a sprint before leaping into the air and sprouting wings. This ebony bird began to soar towards her with its Talons aimed right at her. The girl would open her mouth once more to let out a scream but the bird would place it's talons around her mouth before...stopping and flying away.

As Kuvira woke she would find herself in a familiar room. The school hospital. The bright ceiling lights were nearly blinding and this caused Kuvira to to squint her eyes before sitting up. Beside her bed would be some orange juice and a cookie, something recovery girl would leave everyone she treated once they woke up. Next to the tray was her Uphone. Kuvira unlocked it and immediately checked her balance to see that the money would indeed be placed in her her account. There were also two messages for her, one being from Mr. Sterling saying that they got Jcold out of there without a scratch and that the other guards were alright too. The other however was from an unknown number that read "We plan on meeting you ourselves. -Sombra".
4,239 words. Preformed a rescue! Gimme da Exp.
"Shit!"
Kuvira awoke. The hero in training would find herself not only covered in sweat, but her bedsheets would be drenched from her body liquids. She would place her hand over her left breast to feel her heart pounding at an unhealthy rate. The room was dark so she could tell that it was about three to five in the morning. Kuvira reached over to her drawer and began to feel around inside for a bottle of pills. Ever since her encounter with the man that called himself "Nike" a few months ago, she would find herself having different variations of this same dream. This time however it was the first time the silhouette turned into a bird of any kind. Maybe she was getting better? She thought to herself.

"I've got to find a job"
Kuvira reached over to her drawer and grabbed her Uphone 7 plus. The phone was bigger than her hand and was painted gold. The protective case however would be the color green, Kuvira's favorite. She would place her thumb on the circle in the center of the screen and unlock it. The wallpaper that would be covered by several apps that Kuvira downloaded would be a picture of her and Suyin. She remembered this day as it was the day U.A sent her the costume that she wears. The picture reminded her of a time when she thought being a hero was a little bit easier than it actually is.

Sterling approached Kuvira and extended his hand outwards to offer her a black metallic object. Kuvira immediately pushed his hand away.
I refuse to use a gun Mr. Sterling
Haha calm down, It's a walkie. If y'all gonna be set up on that building we all gonna need some sort of communication.
Kuvira grabbed the walkie talkie from Mr. Sterling and head towards the building, with the others. Once atop the building they would each send a message via walke to Mr. Sterling telling him they were in place and the concert could begin. Before Kuvira went on top of the building she would make sure to bring some earth with her by once more wearing her Earth armor, then shedding it once on top to have it on standby. The concert would begin.
The sounds of fans cheering and singing would echo throughout the city block. The crowd would sing along with each and every line as Jcold rhymed.
Ain’t a way around it no more, I am the greatest
A lotta niggas sat on the throne, I am the latest
I am the bravest, go toe to toe with the giants
I ain’t afraid of you niggas, I’ll end up fading you niggas
Kuvira listened as even the white fans in the crowd repeated these lines word for word.
As Kuvira looked around she noticed the other guards each had some sort of weapon. Each one carrying a melee weapon of some sort. Everyone except the purple woman. She carried what seemed to be some of rifle. It was quite large as she held it with both of her hands. With her standing Kuvira could get a really good look at the woman's body. Not that she wanted to look but more so just something she could see. The woman was taller than Kuvira and had a little extra junk in the trunk. She would be positioned on the other side of the building from Kuvira, and had she not Kuvira would have made sure to introduce herself properly. This positioning had to be maintained because if the walkies got too close to each other a loud screeching noise would erupt from their collective speakers.
Ahh what the hell. Sterling said himself nothing would happen. I'll leave my Walkie here and go talk to her and in the event that something goes wrong I can hear about it from her walkie.
Kuvira Sat her walkie down next to the earth she brought up. Noticing the earth she decided to take some over to the purple skinned goddess in order to show off her quirk. Kuvira grabbed two handful and shoved them in each of her jacket pockets. The Earthbender would then walk over to her and speak once she got close enough.
Hey there uhh...purple lady? I didn't quite catch your name on the ride here. Our car ride was pretty silent. My name is Kuvira.
The woman turned quickly to face Kuvira, her gun aimed in the same direction, pointing at the bender. She was clearly surprised to see Kuvira. The sound of the crowd would rise even more as Jcold got more energized.
Woah Woah! I didn't mean to startle you.
You should be standing over there...w-where is your walkie?
I-I left it over there...
I got her moaning J. Cold, they used to say Jaylen
I never change, I’m like a corpse in a coffin, six feet shit’s deep
The woman looked at the watch on her wrist as if she were late to some kind of appointment. The gun would be slightly lowered however still held by both hands. Kuvira also noticed the woman's accent was that of the French. Kuvira became even more intrigued by the woman.
Look I've kinda been looking at you posted over here for a bit and thought you could use a little...company. I'm also pretty interested in your look...by that I mean your lovely purple skin. What kind of Quirk do you possess?
My inhibition’s fighting my intuition
Premature premonition, showing me the demolition!
Of these phony niggas, so ahead of my time!
Even when I rhyme about the future I be reminiscing
You want the truth well come and listen!
My name is not important to our mission. Now go back to your walkie before I tell the big one.
By "Big One" Kuvira assumed that she meant Sterling. Seeing as she could not afford to lose this job Kuvira turned around and began to head back.
SHIT!
The the sound of what sounded like a timer began to ring behind Kuvira. It was coming from the woman. Kuvira turned around and looked at her holding her wrist trying to adjust the watch. Out of the corner of Kuvira's eye she would see sparks of electricity for a brief moment, followed by each security guard dropping to the ground. Were they attacked by some electricity quirk? She could tell they were still alive as their hearts kept beating, only incapacitated. Kuvira quickly turned back to the woman.
All you had to do was stand at your post and you couldn't even do that right.
Her gun would now be raised to Kuvira's face. Looking around she quickly figured out what was going on. The walkies! This woman had no walkie at her side. The timer was for the walkies to be set off with whatever electric attack just happened.
My name is Widowmaker and I'm here because I've been hired to take out the one they call "Cold". Had you stayed at your post you might have lived to read about it on your " Tweeters".
This woman clearly did not use Social Media at all.
I'm afraid I can't let you do that. And here I was trying to shoot my shot. I figured me and you would end up wrestling tonight but now I see it won't be the fun kinda match.
Widow dropped the gun and slowly put her hands up. Kuvira walked forward and grabbed her by the left arm in an attempt to restrain her. Suddenly a sharp pain could be felt in Kuvira's side, the woman had some kind of claws and used them to penetrate Kuvira.
That hurt! Now I'm gonna haf ta takebhduebso...
Kuvira would begin to slur her words as her vision also begun to the blur. Her legs would buckle before dropping to her knees, her right arm reaching up at widow trying to cling to her. She could feel her heart begin to slow down and could feel each beat clearly.
What...did...you...do...to me?
You asked to see my quirk earlier, no? Widowmaker is more than just a code name little one.
Widow picked up her rifle once more and placed the stock over her shoulder. She would slide the handle forward and the iron sight would raise forth as well as the barrel of the gun. A long pipe would come from within the gun and below the iron sight was a scope. The gun had turned into some kind of sniper hybrid and she immediately set her sights, and scope, down at Jcold. She would walk towards the edge and aim.
One shot...One kill
NO!
Kuvira thrusted her arm forward preforming a punch. Although she could not reach her with the punch, the earth that Kuvira had in her pocket responded to her will. Widows arm would be knocked the the left just as she fired her shot. The shot would miss wildly but now alert all below to her presence. This would cause the guards below to immediately run to Cold and shield him before taking him back stage. Kuvira would fall back to the ground on her back.
Damn it girl I ought to to kill you.
Widow pressed her hands to her head and pressed what seemed to be an ear piece.
The target got away. Some girl decided to play hero and mess up my shot. What do you mean go after him? I only had the one shot so I'm all out of ammo. I'll meet you at the spot we agreed upon reaper. Be there to pick me up.
Widow walked over to Kuvira as she lay on the ground. She placed a foot onto Kuvira chest before tossing her gun over her shoulder, pointing it towards the sky. She would say something to Kuvira that she could not understand. Whatever this poison was was affecting her senses and now her hearing was gone for the moment. The woman would then walk away. Kuvira's eyes closed as she finally passed out.

A crimson streak of liquid raced down the alley way towards a scared girl who sat there, in a ball crying. The girl's body trembling as if the ground below her was having an isolated earthquake. As the liquid drew closer she frantically tried to move backwards to avoid it, however this would prove to be a useless maneuver as the wall behind her pushed her towards the blood. The girl's eyes traced the trail of the blood several meters to a pile of bodies stacked upon each other, each body... lifeless. Next to the bodies stood "him". A tall silhouette of a man that began to walk closer, which would cause the girl to become even more scared and begin to bang her fists on the wall behind her. She would attempt to scream in hopes that someone would help her escape what seemed like a nightmare, but her screams would not leave her lips as they were silent. It seemed the harder she tried to get away or get help the worse her situation got. The silhouette would stop walking and break out into a sprint before leaping into the air and sprouting wings. This ebony bird began to soar towards her with its Talons aimed right at her. The girl would open her mouth once more to let out a scream but the bird would place it's talons around her mouth before...stopping and flying away.

As Kuvira woke she would find herself in a familiar room. The school hospital. The bright ceiling lights were nearly blinding and this caused Kuvira to to squint her eyes before sitting up. Beside her bed would be some orange juice and a cookie, something recovery girl would leave everyone she treated once they woke up. Next to the tray was her Uphone. Kuvira unlocked it and immediately checked her balance to see that the money would indeed be placed in her her account. There were also two messages for her, one being from Mr. Sterling saying that they got Jcold out of there without a scratch and that the other guards were alright too. The other however was from an unknown number that read "We plan on meeting you ourselves. -Sombra".
