[Name] felt the wind whipping against their face as they emerged from the building, trying to suppress the urge threatening to overtake them to look down. However, today was not the day to discover a fear of heights.

"The wind power generator system," Melissa explained, gesturing towards the massive turbines towering above them.

"Why here, though?" Midoriya inquired, casting a curious glance at the towering structures.

"If we ascend through the tower, the security machines will likely lie in wait to ambush us," Melissa elucidated, her tone grave. "We won't have enough time for [Name] to hack back into the system before we're caught. So, our best bet is to ascend to the top all at once from here." She nodded towards the emergency exit mounted on the generator. "We just need to reach that."

[Name] squinted upwards, following Melissa's gaze to the distant walkway perched high above. "All the way up there?" It was definitely too high for their liking.

Melissa nodded resolutely. "Yes, we just need to find a way up."

Just repeat after me, brat, [Name] blinked as they could hear a masculine voice sounding through their mind and could already tell who it was. "Chuuya?" Another time, but you need a way to get up there. I got the thing to help you. I know we don't talk to you much, but I am sure those bastards won't mind this time. They didn't feel a slight bit of suspicion as it is a rule that their cards cannot hurt them or others unless that is what the owner intends.

"[Name]?" Midoriya's voice cut through their thoughts, filled with concern.

Say it after me-

Without hesitation, [Name] repeated after Chuuya, "Transform, Chuuya Nakahara." In a brilliant flash of light, they were adorned in a black hat with a striking red hatband and a delicate silver chain draped over the brim.

Their outfit consists of a white button-up shirt under a dark red vest, a black choker, a black ribbon bolo tie held together with a small silver buckle, an open black cropped jacket with the sleeves rolled up at the elbows, black slacks, a black belt hanging off their right hip and black low-arch shoes. They are wearing black gloves, a long black coat with light-colored lining, and lapels that they wear around their shoulders like a cape. The undercoat is a light shade of red.

[Name]'s transformation left Melissa murmuring in awe at the sight, her eyes wide with wonder as she took in the details of their new attire.

"Wow," she breathed, her voice filled with admiration.

"Well this is... different," Midoriya mused aloud, his curiosity piqued by the sudden skill he didn't think was possible from them. He admits they are full of surprises.

Meanwhile, [Name] examined their gloved hands, flexing their fingers experimentally. "I didn't know I could do that," they admitted, marveling at their altered appearance as Chuuya grew slient which they assume is from them using his card.

"How did you do that just now?" Melissa inquired, her curiosity getting the better of her.

With a nervous laugh, [Name] opted not to disclose the truth about Chuuya's intervention. "Just a feeling," they offered vaguely, not wanting to delve into the details at the possiblity they might sound crazy for it.

"Well, I hope it's a good one," Midoriya remarked with a smile, trying to lighten the mood.

[Name] nodded, steeling themselves for the task ahead. "I should get us to the top. Let's do this, guys."

The trio gathered at the base of the system, their resolve firm as they prepared to embark on their ascent to the walkway.

"I'll take Melissa. I'm sure you'll be fine getting to the top, right, Midoriya?" [Name] turned to the green-haired teen, their expression determined.
