"Vigilante гнев: Who is he really? With the recent broadcast that somehow took over our own Hero News Network systems, he has raised dozens of questions, little of which were actually answered in this...manifesto speech of his. Along with threatening all of Japan, more specifically the heroes and police....it's a bold statement to say the least. Here we have Tokyo Police Chief Tsurugamae, here to speak on the investigation, as well as the claims from гнев." The head reporter for the HNN says as Izuku idly listens to the speech as he sits at a table, on his lunch break.
"Of course, woof. Thank you for having me on here. First things first, I want to assure every single person in Japan that the police force is dedicating it's every resource to finding гнев. This dangerous villain has been designated priority 2. As it rests, he will be pursued until he's brought to justice, woof" Izuku scoffs lightly as he sips on his coffee, sharply breathing out as he tastes the hot, still bitter black coffee, even with the sharp burn of vodka on the back end of it. Ikkaku's 'Miska special'. Why the old man drank his black coffee with two shots of Beluga Vodka, he would never understand. But shit did help settle nerves at least.
"Is there any news about any hero deaths he's caused?" The reporter asks, and Izuku groans lightly, standing up slowly as he packs up his trash, throwing it away
"No, he's been quiet in terms of that. He has been spotted no less than a dozen times in the week since, and while he has killed multiple villains and thugs, no hero incidents have been reported yet. However, we are more than certain that he will continue to fight back and attack heroes. If anyone has nay information, please, relay it to the police force." Tsurugamae says, and Izuku snorts as Julia mimes picking up a phone.
"So...you got busy, hm?" Ikkaku asks, and Izuku shrugs.
"I mean, yes and no. Nothing too special, really. Just working on my next speech, kinda. This one will be a lot of fun." Izuku says, picking up a pen and twirling it around his fingers
"Oh? How so?"
"Other than spilling some secrets? Just.......making a splash, I suppose. More....concrete calls to action." Izuku shrugs, smiling lightly
"...Are you going to incite a revolution?" Ikkaku hisses, and Izuku snorts
"I don't have the time, resources, or patience for that. I just want to....ah....make it tough for the heroes for a minute or two." He replies, as the door 'dings' and a few familiar faces to Izuku walk in
It's some of the UA students from before. Sato, Kaminari, Hagakure (who seems a little too on edge) and Mina, a bubbly smile on the latters face.
I feel the scar tissue on my face stretch as I give a small smile and wave to the four hero students, who recognize me quickly, and wave me over
"Hey, Alex!" Mina says, a bright smile on her face. I don't bother correcting her. It's close enough to my cover
"Hey. I heard about the business in Hosu. You guys all end up all right?" The lie tastes bitter
"I mean, most of us weren't there....Tooru was..." Mina trails off, and I wince.
"Stain was....terrifying...but гнев was just...terrifying. He was so...just good. I don't even know how else to describe it. but he saved me and Joke, so..."
"Well, wait, didn't you almost capture him?" I raise an eyebrow at Denki's question
"Well...I mean..yeah, but like...not really. I got handcuffs around him, but he just managed to break them. I think he used a knife. Endeavor was so pissed he got away." Hagakure admits
"You managed to cuff him? Isn't he like...super deadly and stuff?" Kaminari asks
"Well, yeah. He racked up like....what was it, 80 kills or something?" Sato questions, and I have to physically hold back my smile.
