I Get To Be With You

Chapter 22. Implicit Signals

We were dodging his attacks, which alternated between fire and cold, when I realized that the flames were never high enough to reach the ceiling. What was he avoiding?

"Cover me! "I yelled at my boyfriend, who wasted no time in directing one of his volleys at our main attacker.

By better detailing the roof, I was able to see the fire system. Considering the idiosyncrasies of his quirk, I now understand why he had no intention of having the place fill with water.

"Not so fast! "Trying to attack me, but I managed to hang with my capture weapon to one of the pipes above my head.

"Attack them! "Waiting for this to work

"Don't give me order!" Got him! I wasn't sure the adjustments I made matched his voice, but it seemed enough to convince his ally that it was him. Instantly, the guy lost control of himself

"What a day?!" And now it was both of them. My heart was pounding against my chest, and it was until then that I could feel the chaos at our feet.

I landed right in the middle of both of them, focusing my attention on the taller one. It was now or never.

"What are your intentions? "My boyfriend's eyes almost pop out of their sockets

"Strengthen our lines of attack..."

"What are they doing to get it? "Telling him to look around while he interrogated him

"We are in the recruitment process "his responses were increasingly slow

"When do you plan to attack?

"Soon ..." Besides that, I had a hard time maintaining control.

Perhaps this was not the time for a moral discourse, but perhaps finding out his ulterior motives could eventually lead to the root of his intentions; his motivations and those of all the villains involved with him.

"Why are they doing all this? "I could feel Kaminari's gaze on me

"The system is corrupt. This society reveres the wrong ones and hides those who hinder them. They discard them once they realize they are useless... "Who is it? Why was he speaking in the plural?

From mind control, she couldn't assume his tone of voice or any other gesture, but it was clear that his words held resentment.

"What is your true identity? "Perhaps his identity would reveal more about his relationship with the LOV

"I am To–

The echo of the name 'Ochaco' rumbled metallically, interrupting his response, and shortly afterwards a flash of phosphorescent green light made its way between them. The hole in the ground that separated us from the antisocials almost made us succumb to the debris that began to fall.

The event caused me to lose my concentration, but I managed to hold on to Kaminari, whose heartbeats collided in the palm that supported his back while we were suspended in the air.

Of course, when they came to their senses, both antisocials were more than angry but the fire system had been activated and they quickly began to take cover, while they were soaked. Not only that, the song that started playing in the background was now starting to stun me.

Suddenly, red feathers began to come and go in all directions and that was the gap we needed to disappear without major setbacks, allowing us to flee the place.

We arrived in the vicinity of the academy more than exhausted, feeling how the remaining adrenaline left our bodies as we gave in on the floor of my room with full breath, hoping not to be discovered.
