It was that week's free day. Like any other free day, I was wandering about with the gang, in disguises of course. Our wanted posters were extremely accurate. Yes, I was in a gang. A dangerous one. My role wasn't of a fighter though, despite how much I pleaded to be involved. I had a Healing Quirk, because of which, I was never allowed near any raids. I couldn't really argue with them, it's hard to be a rebellious teenager when your life and the lives of your only friends are at stake. Anyway, it was free day. A day when everyone put on their disguises and went out for fun and not violence, the only two reasons anyone else left the basement. I left to get groceries once a week as my additional daylight. While walking around, our boss, Runocyu, we called him Runo, led us into an alleyway for a short cut to downtown. Two other people were walking our way. As usual, I avoided eye contact and tried not to act tense. Every time we walked by people I always tensed up, like anyone would recognize us at any moment. Sometimes I forgot we were wearing disguises. When our groups were parallel, I did something that was forbidden; I paused and caught the girl's eye. We locked gazes for an instant, and in that instant, she knew. I knew too. The girl grabbed the boy walking beside her by the arm and pulled him to a halt. My eyes widened in panic and I slammed my side into the member we called 'The Brute', who was big, but sweet. Counter to what I was hoping for, he stopped moving and turned to look at me strangely.

"Run," was the only thing I had to say, to trigger a scuffle. Brute picked me up and tossed me upward, I landed on one of the buildings above, rolled away from the edge, and stayed still, following procedure. I breathed deeply, my heart was racing. I blocked out the crashes and yells and closed my eyes tightly. Whenever a fight started, I was to stay quiet and out of the way. If I got hurt, I couldn't heal myself. They didn't want to risk not having their healer in commission, I was too valuable. Not many people are healers despite the fact that most people have quirks and share them with others. I have always wanted to fight. There's something about heroes always wanting to protect people and then failing that I enjoyed. A piercing shriek breached my mind. Now it was too enticing not to have a peek. So, carefully I got to my knees, and crawled across the rough building roof, to the edge. I lay down with my head on my arms, able to see into the alley. I frowned a little. It was over. The girl's clothes were ripped and she was on the ground, holding the upper half of the boy on her lap. Both covered in blood. I didn't think I enjoyed what I saw.

"Airyn!" I turned my head lazily to Runo. "We've got some injuries down here, if you don't mind."

I sighed, stood up and lifted my arms. A long, rubbery, flesh colored thing as thick as a rope wrapped around my waist tightly not a moment later. I dropped my arms to my sides when it finished winding around me. I was then slowly lifted from the roof and pulled back down to the ground. The arm slapped back into place next to Shinonoki as my left foot touched the pavement. Quickly as usual, I healed my group. Burns and small cuts made up the majority of the wounds, pretty easy to heal. As my hand grazed over Runo's right arm (he always insisted on being healed last; I thought it was chivalrous, everyone else thought he believes he was stronger than them) my eyes fell onto the girl again. She was crying softly over the boy. I grimace when my eyes fell on him. Shallow breathing and way too much blood loss. Even if an ambulance were to be called now, he wouldn't make it.

"Let's get out of here before the police arrive," Runo said, rubbing his newly healed forearm. There were murmured agreements all around. I couldn't peel my eyes away from the boy and the girl. They both looked around my age. Such a shame for someone so young to die. A real shame. He was awfully handsome too.

"Airyn, come on," Fumuru yelled from what sounded like a far away place. I swiveled my head around. They were all exiting the alley the way we had came.

"One sec!" I yelled back.

"We'll be waiting around the corner,"

"OK!" I waited for her to disappear with the others before I looked back to the kids. I held my breath for a moment, thinking hard about what I was about to do, then I walked forward. The girl's head snapped up as I approached. She glared at me.

"You're with them," She said in a choked voice. I didn't answer her.

"You're the one that healed them," She continued. I kneeled down beside her.

"Be quiet," I whispered harshly, "I'm going to help him."

Gently, I placed a hand on his chest. His wounds began to close and his breathing became normal at my touch. The girl looked up at me teary eyed.

"Thank you," She breathed. I shook my head and pressed bloody finger to my lips.

"Listen, stumble out of the alley in a few minutes and say you've been attacked, please. I'd appreciate it," I said. She started to nod, but then stopped.

"I should call the authorities, you are part of a wanted gang,"

"Please don't," I knew this was a mistake.

The girl was silent for a moment, then she answered, "Fine. I won't tell anyone, but only because you helped,"

I smiled. Then straightened, and ran off after the rest.

(idk how to do the cool line thing that separates stuff so thatll do for now)

This is just something I thought of randomly. I have chapter one finished and I'll post it after a breif polishing, if people like where this is going. I hope you will...
