Her entire body is frozen in a kneeling position on a nearby fire escape. Even with a mask over her face, she can’t hide the terror in her wide, green eyes and the tears welling up on her lashes. The covers of her gloves pulled back, her exposed claws twitch and grind into the metal, willing something, anything in her to move.
After reading up on sightings on social media, Copy Cat had been tracking the Hero Killer all night. She knows when she is outmatched in a fight, but she can at least try to get eyes on him until more Heroes and the police showed up. She was too late, though, as the gagging feeling in the back of her throat told her. The alley already reeked of blood and the freelancer is quickly on her way to a direct confrontation.
Inhaling sharply, Copy Cat winks an eye shut to stop her tears and steels herself. She doesn’t dare look away from the Villain. The least she can do is try to hold her ground and her dignity.
“At least, tell me what he did,” she asks flatly, seeming to try more to keep her voice level.
Stain revelled in his reputation. The way people squirmed, feared, and screamed when they saw him.. It was practically intoxicating. So seeing this hero sitting up there, scared out of her mind.. A wicked smile just spread across his mouth as he brought a knife up to his face and licked the still fresh blood off of the blade. It was more a powermove than anything else, as he had no reason to use his Quirk right now.
If she hadn’t come to find the now dead hero, she had come here to find him after some simple searching around either online or through police files on him. Either way, she was here now and there was no way out for her than in a body bag come sunrise.
He stood up when the hero spoke and turned to face her, one knife in his left hand and his sword in his right. A smile remained on his face as he chuckled up at the other.
“ Isn’t it obvious? I’ve cleansed the streets of another false hero! He didn’t even put up a fight, or, at least, one that could extend his life by a minute or so longer. ”
