Hero X Villain. Drabble 1
Villain had just gotten home, dropping their keys on the counter and undoing part of their suit top and dropping their gloves on the counter. They hummed softly to themself, frowning a little when their phone buzzed, grabbing it and seeing what had been sent to him at this time of night.
It was a message from hero, which was just a pinged location. Now wasn't really the time for that, sidekick almost caught them yesterday, but normally hero didn't ping a location unless they couldn't text it to them. They sighed and grabbed their gloves again, heading out.
They were a little frustrated that hero had picked somewhere across the city to meet, normally they picked somewhere in between the two's homes so it was easy for both of them to meet up.
They walked for well over 45 minutes before their dot on the map was near Hero's. "Hero? Where are you? And don't make this some dumb surprise." They warned, looking around.
They frowned when they got no response. "Hero..?" They called, huffing. "If this is some prank it's not funny." They said, looking around for where Hero may be hiding. There were some alleyways, and rooftops, but Hero didn't like meeting on rooftops because how easy it was to be spotted, so they decided to check the alleyways first.
The first two alleys were empty, aside from trashbins and trash of course. The second one looked to have someone at the end, slumped against the wall. They rolled their eyes at that, figuring it was a homeless person. The last alley was empty as well.
They huffed. Maybe Hero hadn't meant to send that text, it would have been a waste of their time but they probably should've checked that Hero had meant to send that back at their house.
>Did you send that on purpose?<
They really didn't have anything else to do tonight, so they could wait a few more minutes to see if Hero meant that. They hummed softly as they watched the message send, frowning when they heard a ring tone go off in the alley with the person.
They sighed and walked over. "Hey." They stood back from the person, not wanting to catch anything they may have. They squinted their eyes to try and see the person better, tilting their head at a symbol that seemed familiar on the person's shirt sleeve.
Their eyes went wide after a moment and they rushed forwards when they realized why they recognized it. It was Hero's agency emblem. "Hero?" They turned the flashlight on on their phone, dread filling their stomach as they saw the state Hero was in.
Hero's body was all sorts of bruised, their forearm twisted at an odd angle. Blood was soaking through several spots on the heros suit, and was plastering some of their hair to their forehead.
Villain pressed a hand to Heros forehead, biting their lip at the heat they felt. "Fuck. Okay, Hero I don't know if you can hear me, but I'm getting you out of here." They said, scooping the unconscious hero up and holding them bridal style against them.
They had to take Hero to the hospital, they couldn't deal with that much damage on their own, but that also meant they couldn't stay there with them or even be seen dropping them off. They would have to get someone's attention to deal with Hero and come back later when they were in civilian clothes.
Once at the hospital they carefully laid Hero down on a bench, grabbing a rock off the ground and throwing it through one of the ER windows. Yes that was a stupid idea, but at the same time, it was the best they could do for now. They fled once they heard someone yell, hiding out in the shadows and watching to make sure Hero made it inside.
They let out a small sigh of relief when they saw a security guard yell for a doctor while kneeling next to Hero. They pulled back even more and slipped away to get home so they could get washed up and changed so they could come back and check on Hero later. They'd also have to find out who did this and make sure they paid.
