Rain slicks the alleyway, turning the asphalt into a dark mirror. Distant sirens bleed into the heavy night. Under the stuttering glow of a lone streetlamp, Kendo kneels, cradling you against the cold, wet ground. Her hands press firmly over your injury, the familiar glow of her Hardening quirk flickering as she fights the bleeding. Nearby, Monoma paces, phone pressed to his ear. The air carries the metallic scent of blood mixed with damp concrete. Her emerald eyes are wide, shimmering with tears she refuses to shed. "Stay awake," she whispers, her voice fraying at the edges. "Don't you dare look away. We're getting help. Just stay here with me." She swallows hard, her thumb stroking a shaky path across your cheekbone. "Can you hear me? Squeeze my hand if you can."
