"Sorry, villain. I'm gonna have to ask you to stop messing up my town."

Kiyoharu starts to slowly walk towards the villain, full of courage. 'This villain seems to be like any other, a young person going crazy with their quirk for attention... I better stop them quickly.' Kiyoharu thinks.

The villain's repulsive tentacle-like arms form back into his normal arms. Slowly, he turns his around to look at Kiyoharu.

"...Who..?" he whispers. The villain's voice sounds like old, decrepit doors creaking or nails on a chalkboard.

Kiyoharu scoffs, "I'm Depliate, the hero who's gonna put you behind bars,"

The villain turns around fully to face Kiyoharu head on. He starts walking towards the villain at a faster pace and clenches his fists.

"...Please, don't step any closer..." mutters the villain.

Kiyoharu smiles widely, "Don't step any closer, eh?" In an instant, he starts charging towards the villain, "Well, then you'll have to stop m-!" He got cut off by the villain's disgusting black tentacle arm wrapping around his waist. It came at him so fast that he had no time to even see it. Then, like he weighed nothing, the villain throws him into one of the shops on the street. He smashes through the window and the collision causes a huge dust cloud to form. After the crash, the villain reforms his arm back to normal.

"...I beg of you, don't take this personally..." the villain pleads, "...Everything I do...is for my Sensei..." Kiyoharu quickly jumps back up and runs into the street once more.

"Your 'Sensei', huh? You should introduce me sometime!" Kiyoharu swiftly reaches out his right hand in the direction of the villain, "But, not right now. I need to take care of you first!" He clenches his fist and a green mist starts to leave the villains body. The mist flows towards Kiyoharu and fades into his body.

"...What..?" the villain questions, "...What is this..?" He falls down to one knee like a heavy weight was just placed on his back. "...I'm losing strength..."

Kiyoharu puts his arm down and smiles, "That's right."

Kiyoharu Kato. Quirk, Stamina Sapper. He can steal other human's stamina and store it in himself for his own personal use. He can't steal all of a person's stamina in one go, however. He must steal it over time.

"Now I have your stamina! Don't even try to run anymore, villain. Because you won't be able to." Kiyoharu declares as he starts walking towards the villain again. The villain falls to the ground like a rock and starts shaking.

"...I don't need stamina..." he whispers.

Kiyoharu stops in his tracks, "Huh?" The villain puts his palms on the cold pavement of the street and lifts himself up by transforming his arms into the tentacles and elongating them.

"...Stamina isn't a requirement for strength..." he remarks. His right arm turns back to normal while his left is still holding himself up. Shakily, he lifts his right arm and points it at Kiyoharu. "...Now, please stay out of my way..." Again, the villain transforms his arm into the grotesque black tentacle and shoots it towards Kiyoharu, but this time it has a sharp tip. Kiyoharu slides to the side just in time to dodge, but it grazes his cheek, cutting it.

'Damn, why is the end so sharp...?!' Kiyoharu thinks. The second that he's finished dodging, the tentacle does a U-turn. 'It's coming back!' He turns around to see that it's too close to dodge. 'Shit! I can't dodge this one! I need to block it..!' he thinks. He quickly moves his hands in front of his head and puts them on top of each other with their palms facing the tentacle. It pierces through his left hand fully, but his right is able to stop its momentum.

"Aggh!" groans Kiyoharu as the point enters his palm. The villain watches as this occurs.

"...Hmmm..." the villain thinks, "...He's too strong for me at the moment..." Quickly, he turns his left arm back to normal and then flips his hair up off of his ear to reveal an earpiece. He promptly presses the button to activate his microphone. "...I'm sorry, Sensei, I'll have to complete my introduction another time... Please forgive me..."

"Do not worry, Yumio. These things take time. Return back quickly and we will discuss what you'll do next," says a deep voice from the earpiece.

"Yes, sensei." says the villain. He retracts his tentacle arm that was attacking Kiyoharu and transforms it back to normal. Once the point leaves Kiyoharu's palm he quickly turns around to see that the villain has gotten away.

"Goddammit..." he mutters while holding his bleeding left hand.

Later that night...

After the villain incident, he was taken to a nearby doctor's office and was given stitches. But, now he has to wear a cast for a few weeks while his hand is healing.

"I'm home," Kiyoharu says as he enters the apartment. He walks down the hallway past the living room and sees Akira still sleeping and snoring on the couch. "If you didn't do those push-ups you'll be in big trouble, young man." Suddenly a door from down the hall opens up and Hikari walks out. She gasps and runs over to Kiyoharu when she sees his cast.

"W-what happened?!" she stammers. Kiyoharu scratches the back of his head and chuckles.

"I just had a scuffle with a villain, that's all," he answers.

Hikari pouts, "Well, obviously! I mean, what happened to your arm?!" Kiyoharu slowly looks down at his cast and sighs.

"Here, let's not wake up Akira. I'll tell you in the room," he whispers.

At the same time, in an old abandoned warehouse...

"...I'm back, Sensei..." says the villain that fought Kiyoharu earlier.

"Welcome back, Yumio. Did you learn any valuable information or any good lessons while you were out?" says a figure with a deep voice, sitting behind a desk.

"...Nothing valuable..." says Yumio. "...But, I did learn of a hero who I want out of my way..."

"Oh? And who's that?" questions the figure.

"...Depliate..." Yumio growls.

"Well, you know that I give you full reign to destroy anyone you want, as long as it won't affect me," explains the figure, "You're allowed to kill him if you so please. Just don't bring me into your own personal grudges, Yumio."

"...Yes, thank you Sensei..." Yumio replies.
