"I fucking hate villains. I wish I could just beat them all up to pulp!" Miruko clenched her fists, practicing her punches in the air. Edgeshot shook his head in disbelief.
"Miruko, I know you're pissed that you can't get into action right now but we need to finish investing this place." Edgeshot calmly muttered as he turn to the white Rabbit Hero.
The two heroes were sent to investigate an old storage house founded in the outskirts of Hosu City, where reports of some citizens the lives nearby that there's mafia lurking around the storage house for the past weeks.
Toshinori suggested to investigate the place since you can never be sure what the Mafias are up to. The mafias were unusually quiet these days and it wasn't a good thing. They must've have something up to their sleeves.
And Edgeshot and Miruko are the best Heroes that can sneak into the place without getting caught.
Since The ninja Hero, Edgeshot can manipulate the thinness of his body and stretch his limbs. He is able to transform faster than the speed of sound. Edgeshot can use his Quirk to move around quickly and pierce targets by folding himself, a quirk perfect for sneaking in. His quirks are befitting for the nature of a ninja.
Meanwhile, Rumi- also known as the Rabbit Hero : Miruko, seems to have a Quirk that grants her incredible leg strength, by thumping the ground she easily destroys a large chunk of area. This ability is so powerful that it looks like an explosion occurred. She is the most befitting Hero that can keep a backup to Edgeshot if things gets rough.
Miruko started to hop, doing a boxing footwork as she throw punches in the air. "I hate this!" Miruko complained, She couldn't just stay still and she wanted action that bad. Edgeshot stared at the fellow hero with an deadpan look on his face.
Edgeshot couldn't help but roll his eyes as he opened a wooden door that was found inside the storage room. But his annoyance vanished, and fear replaced it as his eyes adjusted to the disgusting sight he saw. Edgeshot took a step back while his eyes widen.
"M-miruko..." Edgeshot muttered that made the Rabbit Hero look at him and a crestfallen face painted on her face as she saw hundreds of Nomus placed in a crystal container and seemed to be in a deep sleep.
They thought that the nomus completely vanished, knowing that Shigaraki Tomura has already given up on his goal on being a villain. But they were completely wrong.
"Holy shit.." Miruko can't help but feel uneasy after seeing the nomus. "The mafias are connected to the second Overhaul, we need to let Toshinori know about this." the Rabbit Hero added as she hastily took a snap of the nomus using a small camera which she placed on her pockets.
Edgeshot did the same, and he was glad that he and Miruko came in prepared for what could happen and the nomus were totally unexpected.
"Oh so look what do we have here?" an unfamiliar voice took their attention, making the two Heroes look at the direction where the voice came from.
It was an unknown group of men, wearing their formal tuxedos and they were carrying heavy firearms. Edgeshot immediately recognized the insignia that was stitched on the chest pocket of their tuxedos, "Liberation Army."
"Looks like Kei was right. Heroes already had their eyes on us, boss." one of the men affirmed, talking to the boss.
Miruko hid the carry on her pocket, they must get the evidences to the other heroes. She leaned to Edgeshot's ear as she whispered quietly, "Who are they, Shinya?"
"A remaining members of the Liberation Army. They got themselves connected to the mafias." Edgeshot replied but in the lowest tone he could possibly whisper.
Miruko position herself into a boxing stance as she flashed her victorious and proud grin, "Looks like I'm going to enjoy this."
"What do we do, boss?" the man asked to his boss, and their leader just smirked as he pulled out the gun from his slacks, "Of course. We kill the witness."
Miruko just shrugged as she scoffed. Ome thing that Miruko is good at aside from fighting is to provoke her opponents. She started to make her knuckles crack and started to jog as she began to punch the air.
Edgeshot began to count all the enemies inside the storage. They should do this as quick as possible. So that they wont get caught up with more enemies, "Miruko. We need to do this fast." Edgeshot turned to Miruko and the Rabbit Hero just responded with a smirk.
"this is what I've been waiting for, let's have fun with these bastards for a while, shall we?"

Toga sat at the bench beside Yuri, the woman who claims to be responsible for your memory loss. Toga's heart was beating fast and she was afraid of what kind of answers will she receive.
"It was my fault that the Raijin Hero lost her memories." Yuri started, as she fondled her fingers together, Youma gently caressed her grandma's back to comfort her. Toga remained silent, waiting for Yuri to continue.
Yuri looked up to sky, "The only thing I remembered was (y/n) Bakugou was in the same bus stop as me and we were both waiting for a bus." yuri started to reminisce about the past.
"She seemed to be troubled, that's why I approached her. She talked about how she wanted to forget something and her eyes were really pained." Toga immediately felt her chest pang. It was her fault after all.
Yuri glanced at the blonde female, "I told her that I could help her with that. Because in the past, I worked in an hospital that deals with the patient's mind and memories. I thought if I could help her, she wouldn't remember what caused her too much pain and to feel hatred towards someone or something." she explained.
"I was more than willing to help her, but she hesitated. There was something that was stopping her." Yuri smiled at Toga which made her confused, "Love and hate are two sides of the same coin. Maybe the thing that she hated the most is also the thing she loved so dearly."
Toga sat there, unable to sink Yuri's words into her head. She felt the tears forming in her eyes.
"(y/n) hated Bakugou... And that was my fault. I was the one who put her through all of this. I'm nothing more than a scum. I hate myself."
"then, there was an accident. She protected me from a villain. The villain pushed her and I accidentally activated my quirk. I was so scared that time, realizing what have I done. But I was glad Endeavor was there to help her... But after that, I haven't heard a word from him or (y/n)." said by the old woman.
Youma held her grandma's hands, "You know that it wasn't your fault, Grandma." youma pleaded but Yuri shook her head. She felt that it was also her fault why you lost your memories.
"Is there any way to return her memories, Yuri?" Toga asked, she was already panicking. She'll admit that she was a part of the league of villains, but she's a new person now. She wants to save you, if kneeling in front of the old woman and beg would let her return your memories, she would do that.
Yuri turned to Toga with a weak smile on her lips, "My quirk... My quirk works solely to erase someone's memory..." Toga felt her heart shattering.
"Just like amnesia, the effect of my quirk depends on the person who was hit by my quirk. The more the person hates something or a certain person, the more impossible for her to remember... The stronger her hatred is, the more that she won't remember anything... I'm sorry..." Yuri explained. Toga sat there, and all of a sudden her hopes began to shatter.
She kept her hopes up, and this is what she gets. Toga knew that she wasn't supposed to, but she genuinely want to bring the old (y/n) back, the old you.
"It's up to (y/n) to remember, Miss Himiko. We're very sorry." Youma lowered her head, bowing at the blonde female as she apologized.
"But know that my quirk is the same as amnesia, there is a chance that she will regain her memories, let's hope that something or someone can trigger it and her memories might return." Yuri tried to explain again, she was right.
Yuri's quirk was a hit or miss. Your memories can possibly return but there is a chance also that it wont.
Toga smiled at them weakly as she stood up from the bench, "Thank you so much for helping me. But it seems like I have to go." her voice was raspy but she still managed to say her thanks and bowed at them, "You're a good friend, Himiko. Thank you for helping (y/n)." Yuri thanked Toga but Toga just smiled at her.
"I'm not as good as you thought, Yuri-san." Toga admitted, Yuri immediately saw the pain in her eyes, makingbthe old woman sympathize the younger female.
After that, she turned away to start walking again. She couldn't help but feel upset. Toga was upset to the point where she regretted on knowing about Yuri's quirk and the tendencies of your memories to return.
"Miss Toga!" Youma called, making the blonde female turn her head at her again.
"I know that she'll regain her memories! I know it!" Youma tried to comfort Toga. But Toga just flashed her a weak and disappointed smile.
She felt like a part of her was crashing down. She felt like she wanted to cry and she never felt like that for a long time now. Suddenly, all kinds of emotions was sinking in her.
And now that she found out the answers, she feels more scared to even talk to you. Her conscience won't let her. She felt ashamed of herself. She doesn't have the courage anymore.
And right now, all she hoped was for you to regain your memories. She hoped that one day, you can forgive her. She will pay for the damage she had caused you and she'll be more willing to do that.
Toga Himiko, a former villain. She only had a few reasons to live, but she was given a chance to change her life. But she threw her chances away. She cannot atone for the sins that she had made. And all she can do was pray.
Pray that one day when you regain your memories, you'll be able to forgive and she'll be able to look at you in the eye and say her apologies.
But all she can do now is wait...
"I hope so."
