Aizawa scouts out a nearby  alleyway under the bright moon. The night was dead silent and suspiciously calm. Not a single villain had caused issues since nightfall.

Aizawa: This is the alley the informant told us to investigate.

He scans the area and drops down. Not a problem in sight.

Near the center of the walkway, there was single steel door that led into a red brick building with a lamp light illuminating it.

He pulls out his phone after the alley was cleared.

Aizawa phones Phoebe.

Aizawa: Hey, the alley is clear.

The female on the other side responds.

Phoebe (On phone): Got it, I'll be there in a moment.

She hangs up.

Clacking heels echo from above.

A few moments later, Phoebe jumps down beside Aizawa.

Phoebe: How long has it been since we've done a mission together? Six... seven years?

Aizawa: I don't know, what I do know is that you need to keep a low profile. This is ment to be a stealth operation.

Phoebe sighs.

Phoebe: So serious. Lighten up a bit.

She looks at the lit up door.

Phoebe: So this is it?

Aizawa: Seems like it. So you sense anything on the other side?

Phoebe focuses on the building for a moment.

Phoebe: No, not a thing. In fact...

She looks confusingly at the building.

Phoebe: No energy, no electricity, nothing.

Aizawa: Odd... it's time to go inside then. Are the police on stand by?

Phoebe: They're parked all around the building. Once we give the word or they hear commotion, they'll bust in.

Aizawa: Then let's go.

He puts on his goggles.

Phoebe: After you, 'Eraserhead'.

She mockingly pronounces his hero name.

He gives her a glare before opening the door.

Aizawa: It's unlocked?

Phoebe: Only slightly disconcerting.

They enter the dingy building.

The area was very dark. Metal shelves were lined up in sloppy rows. Most were empty.

They look up to see a near collapsed roof that was held up by support beams ready to give out.

Aizawa: How welcoming...

He spoke in a hushed voice.

Upon moving further, Phoebe grabs her head in a curious way.

Phoebe: Hey wait a second. Something weird is happening.

Aizawa: What is it? A headache?

Phoebe: No... it's almost like theres static in my head. I-I can't sense a thing. Not even you.

Aizawa: Shit...

Phoebe: Just- Let's just push forward.

The deeper they went, the more discomfort Phoebe felt.
