Yuna had started living in this city only a few weeks ago, it had been an idea from HQ. Their hero had been murdered together with their reigning villain by a new face on the scene.

A city needed a hero to defend itself, so they were relocated from their home to this city. It was of the utmost importance they found the new villain as fast as possible. They were clearly dangerous after all.

That was how they found themselves wandering around the shopping center. Looking out for any abnormalities, while staying under the radar. Their civilian persona needed to be cultivated too, a tight smile and baggy clothes blending in with the crowd.

So it was no surprise that someone bumped into them, making them fall against a wall. They were just a random person on the street after all. 

"Oh, sorry. I didn't see you there."

Yuna brushed the dust of their clothes and was ready to move on, when the stranger took a step closer. Crowding them against the wall in complete disregard for personal space.

"You know, your face reminds me of someone I saw on a picture before."

That seemed highly unlikely as Yuna made sure to never be identifiable photographed by the press.

"The person that showed me that, told me some interesting things about you."

He stepped even closer, making their faces only centimeters apart from each other. It was at that moment, that Yuna noticed they weren't that among as many people as previously thought.

This was the beginning of a robbery.

"I was told to deliver a message to you."

Maybe not a robbery, but certainly a crime.

"Tonight you will be hit on."

The man was gone in the next heartbeat leaving Yuna with more questions than answers.

Of course they were going to be hit on tonight, they were fighting criminals. Though why this shady individual felt the need to tell them that, was yet unclear.

-

"Whoa, you almost had me there, Shower."

The villain was dancing around them in circles.

"You know, that mask of yours really brings out your eyes."

Yuna had found the villain they had been looking for early in their patrol. In the subsequent flight and chase the villain had been running their mouth non stop.

"And that cape of yours..." He made a turn that should not be possible for an untrained human. "It waves in the wind, and you use it really well to distract your opponent."

To conclude, the villain they were chasing, trying to capture, had been flirting with them the entire time.

"Will you talk to me again? Your voice gives me goosebumps, the good kind."

It was rather disconcerning.

"Where did you even get that voice changer? I might need one too, now that I ventured out into the light of the day."

Yuna had tried to keep their mouth shut to not encourage the villain, but the words flowed out of their mouth without their permission.

"Shut up."

The villain merely smiled at that and faded away into the shadows.
