Sharp cries of terror and pain echoed through the alleyway in the 11th ward. [Name] winced as she watched the young man being ripped apart by her superior.

"Kirishima-san, you don't have to be so brutal. He was an easy catch."

The boy scoffed, glaring at her. His dark eyes glinting in the moonlight. He turned back to his meal, throwing an arm at the girl.

"It's been a few weeks since you've eaten, I don't need you dying on me." Ayato growled before digging his sharp incisors into the other arm.

"Thank you." She murmured, picking up the arm. "I need to go turn in some reports to Eto-san. Goodbye, I hope you enjoy your meal."

Ayato watched her go as he felt a pang of pain hit his heart. If only he could tell the (h/c) girl how he felt.

…

Maybe he really was a tsundere like Nico had said.

~M~M~M~M~

[Name] whimpered in pain, clutching her head.

"You kick hard Kirishima-san." She rubbed the side of her head, one eye closed as she felt for a bump.

"Tch, you're just slow. Pay attention instead of zoning out like you always do." Ayato hissed, annoyed with how weak her attacks had been.

[Name] laughed, shaking her head.

"You're really strong Kirishima-san. Never in a million years would I be able to beat you." She said, gulping down some water.

"That's because you're weak. You need to toughen up more. Get up the ranks so you'll finally do something useful in this god foresaken organization." He replied, scoffing at her.

"Yeah... I wish I could be more useful to everyone else Kirishima-san."

Then maybe... I'd finally be something to you.

~M~M~M~M~

Deep, ragged breaths came out from her parted lips. Her (e/c) eyes were clouded, blood splattered across her face. A familiar pair of dark blue eyes stared down at her, arms circled around her body.

"Dammit [Name]. What did I tell you about showing weakness? Shit, you're covered in blood." Ayato hissed, clutching the dying girl tighter. [Name] gave a soft whine, wiggling around to adjust herself to a more comfortable position.

"Sorry Kirishima-san, I-I was still useless in the e-end." She murmured, whimpering when she felt his nails dig in.

"Shut up idiot. Save your breath, you're going to need the energy. Come on, I'll get you-"

"I r-really liked you Kirishi... Ayato-kun."

The boy froze, looking down at the (h/c) girl.

"I know you p-probably don't return my feelings, but… I've always a-admired you… Ayato-kun. How strong you were, something I could n-never be."

[Name] heard his breath hitch as he looked down at her. She gave a small smile, whispering her final words as her eyes fluttered shut.

"I'm sorry, that in the end... I couldn't be anything to you."

Author's Note:

I finally fixed the technical difficulties I was having so that's why I'm reposting this. Anyway, I'm new here and everything is complicated to a point I'm staring at my screen like wtf for about 10 minutes. Gomen gomen.
