"It's a 187 detective...ten victims total. From what forensics can tell they assume some sort of strength enhancement. We're still working on IDing all the bodies, there was one witness statement saying they saw two people leave the alleyway though they looked injured. Right now we're suspecting potential self defence however the brutality would state other wise...this was personal."  An officer stated leading Detective Tsukauchi past the police tape and entering the crime scene. Ten bodies laid in various positions almost all of them were mutilated in some shape or form....one of them had nothing more than paste for a head. Tsukauchi had been a cop for a long time and had seen his fair amount of bad shit....this was among the top. Another corpse basically had half his face smashed right off painting the wall with a disturbing mosaic...it was brutality incarnate, there were obvious signs of a struggle and use of blunt force trauma.

Weaving his way through and around the forensics specialist Tsukauchi noted the lack of foot prints or most bodily evidence more than likely the previous nights rain having washed it away.... It was also noted that so far there were no finger prints found aside from the various bodies. It was very possible these people killed each other but the positioning and witness testimony argued against that...it was both too early for this shit and Tsukauchi can already feel the headache this one's gonna cause. Especially since all cameras that would've had eyes on the area....were mysteriously missing footage of the previous three days.

Mei awoke to the god awful sun like lights of the nurses office, which in its self was a small hospital.....being nearly blinded upon opening her eyes she felt noticeably better than the last time she did. Slowly raising herself to her elbows Mei scanned the room before her eyes locked onto her medical room mate. He was asleep still but the bandages were gone.....She saw the long and ragged scars that adorned what little remain of his face, the mechanical jaw connected and the scars of evident trial and error....each small breath he released was mechanized. Her eyes followed the jaws path seeing the trail of carbon and steel plating. Every so often his breaths would hitch and stop before continuing?

She didn't know what she felt? This kind of thing wasn't something Mei could understand she'd never dealt with something like it! She was never really good at understanding other people that well. So why did seeing his scared face make her feel so horrible? Not disgusted or afraid but genuinely sad? No matter how hard she tried she couldn't force herself to look away. It wasn't a place of romantic feelings, but genuine curiosity and concern. She traced the scars with her eyes inspecting their turns and edges, she theorized their origin what possibly could have done this to muscles?!!! She noticed that his hair had been cut noticeable shorter sporting a medical undercut? There was a small bandage on the side of his head still, from the damage the bat did..
Finally being an investor, she was astonished by the designs. Sure some prosthetics exists ya but not like this! Not even close to this! She could help but stare into the small details fascinated with the design and the effort. But most of all she found it strange that she was worrying about this person? Sure she's not a sadist or anything she wants to help people by making support items it's the whole reason why she does it! So she can still help...but getting a ton of cash was a bonus!! But she never really cared to get close to people, help from a distance kinda thing in her work shop making endless babies (god that's just wrong).

"Ah young love! It warms my dead heart!" Recovery girl said not gaining the attention of the pinkette....

"Wha..cough. What happened to him" Mei asked not breaking her line of sight. Recovery girl only sighed before walking up and grabbing Izuku's hand.

"A lot Dearie...a lot, but that's no one's but his story to tell. I hope you'll pry it out of him." The small woman said with a genuine smile and Harry chuckle, she looked like a grandma or something. Before Mei had a chance to respond Recovery Girl closed the gap and began asking medical questions and then ensuring she was safe to go home. However she also warned that when Izuku is awake they were both to speak to Nezu about what happened. Mei honestly didn't care really she could hardly remember anything that happened except for Muscles showing up and picking her up! Oh and biting some pricks ear off.....In her defence she did warn them!

After getting picked up by her parents Mei couldn't help but stare at UA as they drove away. She couldn't help but be curious about what did happen the previous...two nights Ago? She shrugged, She'd figure it out eventually!
But she couldn't help but set her sights on Izuku Yagi. He was an enigma to her, someone who instead of needing to dumb it down for sped things up. She liked being around him actually, someone who was just as passionate as she was! Someone who wasn't afraid of "rules" and "moral boundaries"! NO! They were visionaries! Both of them! She's decided he'd earned a promotion! From assistant to!

"Acting business associate: Muscles"
