The White Fang were easy enough to defeat. They were just grunts after all. The deer faunus was putting up a fight though. I smirked. It appeared that I had saved the best for last. The girl was quite skilled and smart with her weapons. If I stayed away she was able to keep up a constant stream of bullets, and when I closed, whoo, that was a doozy. Her skill with a knife was quite scary, and she always seemed to aim below the belt. I liked her. I decided to call her 'Dear', which was funny because it was overly familiar and she was a deer faunus.

But even so she wasn't good enough. I dashed forward and hooked my cane around her leg. In a flash I sent her tumbling to the ground. "Well done!" I clapped lazily. "Now, I should mention that any of you who want to back out should do so now."

No one moved.

"Alright! It's good to see that you're properly trained! Now, I should mention that my semblance allows me to monitor your every move, so if you do betray me I'll know." I did my best most irritating smirk, which was quite honestly very annoying. I wanted to provoke them, at least one. I was hoping it would be one of the female ones. Hopefully a cute one, who was I kidding, anyone with aura was bound to be a looker.

The Dear was the first to take the bait. "How so?" she asked. She looked torn between not wanting to know and wanting to be certain.

I obliged her. "My semblance lets me see anyone I've touched it takes a bit of focus but-"

"Pervert," the Dear hissed. Her face was bright red. Her knife was in her hand and she was dangerously close to me.

"Woah there Dear-" Oops, I hadn't meant to say that out loud.

Dear froze. Everyone was silent. You could hear a pin drop.

"You… You…" Dear was blushing in anger, and maybe a bit in embarrassment, but anger was definitely at the forefront of her mind.

"Let's not be hasty here. If you try to hurt me I'll be forced to punish you." I hoped she would, honestly.

With a angry yell Dear threw herself at me. I just focused my semblance. Dear froze as her clothing was torn away and she was left in nothing but her undergarments and mask. Dear screamed and fell to the ground, her arms flying to cover her body.

Dear was wearing a set of brown underwear covered with small white polka dots. She was quite modest, wearing a sports bra that made it clear that she was rather small breasted and a pair of tight boyshorts that wrapped around her firm apple bottom.

I walked towards her. "Did I forget to mention? My semblance lets me destroy your clothes as well."

Dear glared at me. "-ate," she mumbled.

"What was that?" I asked.

"I… I hate you!" Dear shouted. She sniffled as she glared up at me. Sniffled… I looked closer. And she was crying. Damn it, I didn't want this, I liked embarrassing women, but this was like kicking a puppy, and I wasn't a monster.

"Hey, hey…" I placed my coat over the girl, covering her. "I promise not to use my semblance to spy on you for anything perverted."

The girl looked up at me. Damn it, doe eyes. Why'd she have to be a deer? Why not something that no one would like? Like a chameleon? "Promise?" she asked.

"On my honor as Vale's most dashing criminal." I had my fingers crossed of course. While I didn't intend on spying on this girl it was better to leave my options open. "Let's work together?" I asked.

Dear smiled weakly. "Alright."

"Now, excuse me while I go spy on people. I need to feel evil again," I said, "You lot get this place turned into a proper evil hideout. Dear is in command so listen to her. I'll send you orders when I figure out what I should do with you."

"My name isn't 'Dear'!" Dear shouted.

"Talk back and you'll be naked!" I called as I walked away.
