Light Human In MHA

The first thing I did after waking up was taking a quick shower, I needed to grab my costume from Maijima, I also needed to grab my actual licence from Nezu. After that, I would still need to work for a bit at UA. I'll be free to go outside in the evening.

Well, I'll have Mirko tagging along. From what I remember she's pretty fast, I might not be able to cover the entire city, but at least half of it will be possible.

I don't have much to do in UA right now, it's not like the hero course has training sessions every day. Although most students decide to train after hours, at least going by Mirio's word.

After doing everything that was required for me at school I was prepared to go out. Nezu said I'd have to call a police dispatcher and inform him if I wanted to go out. Although they would know from the tracking ankle bracelet they put on me.

I called the number Nezu gave me and they told me to wait in front of the gates at UA. They were probably going to send Rumi to pick me up and start the patrol.

I waited there for a while, dressed in my costume, I should've expected her to be late, it's not like she loves the idea of having to supervise me. It technically meant that she now had a teammate, a concept she always detested.

After a while I managed to see her, it's been an hour since the dispatcher told me to wait here. She looked rightfully pissed off, she didn't even bother greeting me or anything. She just started grumbling.

"I can't believe they made me babysit you-" Her anger was directed at me, even though this wasn't really my fault.

"Well, nice to meet you. Or not." I wasn't going to be kind to her for no reason.

"Let's go! Don't get in my way and don't slow me down!" Her comment ticked me off.

"I should be the one saying that... Just by being late here you already slowed me down." I wasn't going to be bossed around by her. I was a trained fighter and I had experience dealing with villains, probably as much as her if not more.

At this point, she shouldn't have been a hero for more than 2 years. She should be 24 now, assuming she went to college, she most likely became a hero at 21 or 22 the latest. Meaning I was technically her senior in this.

She was really pissed off about my comment, I just ignored her reaction and started the patrol. It quickly turned into a race however. She simply didn't want me to run in front of her, she kept speeding up until she passed me, which in turn made me speed up more, thinking we could patrol the streets faster.

With my perception I could feel quite a bit of villain activity in the district, I decided to put a stop to as many as possible. I completely ignored Mirko's presence, dealing with the villains smoothly. She genuinely took this patrol as a challenge, trying to take down as many villains as possible.

I contacted the dispatcher and told them to send all the heroes in the nearby districts somewhere else, I could take care of things here just fine, having more manpower in other districts would be better.

They didn't want to listen to me at first, but then I reminded them that I had cleared much more than this by myself in the past.

I hadn't seen this many villains around since my first patrols as a vigilante. It was a bit concerning for me, the second I take a break, villain start running rampant as if I don't exist anymore. Why are there so many of them? Do they respawn or something?

My first patrol as a hero was eventful. I still needed to contact the dispatcher for every caught villain, I can't wait for that stupid camera to come. It's honestly as much of a bother as I remembered it to be.

During this whole time, I didn't exchange a word with my temporary partner. She also didn't try to strike up any conversation. We didn't get a good first impression of each other, before meeting her I still thought she would be agreeable, but now I think of her as an annoyance.

I don't know her opinion on me, but form the few glances she gave my way it's probably the same. From time to time I could sense her smile, I don't really know her reason for smiling but she certainly didn't want me to see it.

Regardless, by the end of our patrol, Mirko was exhausted, keeping up with my speed while fighting that many villains was a heavy task, I don't think many would be capable of that, maybe All Might could if he was still in his prime. Other than him, I remember Hawks having a lot of mobility, I don't think he has as much stamina as Mirko though.

I think this was a productive night, there won't be as many villains on the streets next time. The media already picked up on my return, they were bound to make a few articles.

Right now, I called my dispatcher and told them I was returning to UA, I didn't bother saying my goodbyes to Mirko. She just looked my way, still very tired.

I was already on my way till something ticked. I took a pause, looking back at the Rabbit Hero... she couldn't even stand up anymore.

She fainted there, in her effort to keep up with me she completely disregarded her own well-being.

I couldn't just leave her here, I decided to take her to a hospital, Recovery Lady wouldn't be able to help, I doubt Mirko had any stamina left.

Running with her on my back wasn't that hard, I created a few light ropes to hold her in place. I couldn't use my fastest speed, but I still reached the hospital in less than a minute. Entering the hospital I called to the front desk for help and they brought a stretcher.

I needed to call my dispatcher again. He probably noticed I had taken a different route to UA, I didn't need him to panic about me trying to run off.

I didn't return to UA that night, I was a bit concerned at the state of my temporary partner. I didn't like her, but knowing her current state was my fault made me feel a bit guilty. I talked to the hospital staff and they agreed to let me spend more time there.

I spent that night on a hospital chair near her bed.

__________POV Rumi Usagiyama__________

I remember thinking this was going to be boring, I had only heard about this person in the past, he's supposed to be some big shot vigilante, but he is just a 15-year-old brat. So what if he's a bit taller than other kids his age?

I thought the police was joking around when telling me to be cautious. Now I know why they were so serious, he extremely fast, keeping up with him is very hard. But I don't want to show any weakness.

He angered me really badly when saying I was holding him back. But, no matter how much I tried I always ended up behind him.

It didn't make me feel discouraged, It only made me want to work harder. Every time I sped up a bit he would become even faster. As if he was scaling his level to my own. The very notion of me holding him back made me rage, it made me go even faster.

The pace at which he defeated villains was impossible for me to replicate, even when trying my best I couldn't even reach half of his number. Most villains didn't even have time to blink, he only showcased his true speed when taking them down.

Subconsciously, a smile made its way to my lips.

I didn't let him see it, if I saw him even beginning to turn I suppressed it. I couldn't let him see I was enjoying this. I could feel myself get stronger, every time he sped up I felt motivated to break through my limits.

By the end, I couldn't even move a muscle. I could feel my heart beating out of my chest. Even with my heightened tolerance, I could feel every muscle in my body burning in pain. Before I could utter any word I fell to the ground.

I saw was him going back towards UA, I think he didn't notice me falling to the ground. I knew this was serious, I was clinging with all of my willpower just to stay conscious. If I fainted I was afraid I wouldn't wake up. But in my state, I couldn't even scream for help, let alone press my emergency signal.

I saw him rushing back here, probably noticing something wrong. He acted quickly, strapping my unmoving body to his back and rushing me to a hospital.

The second I hit the stretcher I knew I was going to be fine, his face was the last thing on my mind. It was filled with concern, something I didn't think I would see from anyone besides my family. It gave me a warm feeling.

With these happy thoughts, I drifted away.
