A/N: Just for fun, here's Dabi's pov

I strolled down the street without a care in the world. Ignoring all the weird looks people were giving me, I passed by a dark alleyway. It was pretty dark out, the time when all the villains and thugs came out to play. Movement further down the inconspicuous alley drew my attention. Investigating, I went to see what was up. To my surprise, a gaudily dressed hero was strangling a darkly garbed person. I saw stain was lying incapacitated on the ground a few meters away from them.

Anger building within me, I felt my flames burst to life. Going to the despicable hero, I tore him off the asphyxiating person. A blade dropped out of his limp hand and clattered to the ground. Incinerating him without mercy, his ashes fell to the ground.

Looking down, I noticed that the victims form was that of a female. She didn't look like she was dying, so I stepped over her to go to stain. An iron grip latched onto my leg.

Suddenly face-first on the ground, I felt my quirk explode out of me in protest.

The alley was awash in blue flames as I burnt my opponent to a crisp. Confident that the threat was gone for my flames were hotter than a normal human could withstand, I pushed myself up to my knees.

Only to be slammed back to the ground. A knee dig painfully into my back as a blade tested against my jugular.

I froze in a split second of confusion. What just happened? She should be burnt into ashes by now.

The slight pressure in my throat suddenly disappeared. Hearing a body hit the ground behind me, I sat up.

"She's a feisty one, ain't she?" Stain rasped, looking to be in the verge of passing out from blood loss. "If not for a personal matter she would've made a great sidekick," he coughed out blood.

I narrowed my eyes at him. "What are you talking about?"

After a few seconds of silence I got up and sauntered over to stain. Poking him in the forehead, he didn't react. I snorted. He was out cold. His skill spoke measures for itself. He had thrown a knife accurately with this extent of injuries... my respect for the man increased a few notches.

Considering his words, I went back to the girl. I was slightly surprised to find that she was still alive. Stain had thrown his knife so it had impacted her with the handle.

I sighed. This late night walk had turned into such a hassle. "What a pain," I complained, throwing her over my shoulder. Stain apparently hadn't wanted her dead, so I would go along with his wishes for now. Setting her up against the wall near stain, I dialed up a doctor buddy. I waited for him to get here impatiently. Stain would need professional treatment to make a full recovery. While mostly stable now, I cauterized and bandaged the worst of his wounds.

Comparing the other two humans in the alleyway, I couldn't help but feel a little impressed by the girl's abilities.

At first, I had thought that the hero I cremated was the one to rough up stain, but stain's words and actions disproved that.

The doctor finally showed up and carted Stain off. While he had offered to take the girl as well, I didn't trust the thickness of my wallet that much.

Instead, I carried her limp form to my place. It wasn't too far of a walk. I'll see what her deal is when she comes too; whether I should kill her or not.

The girl hogged the bed, leaving me with the couch. She was still sleeping when I woke up, still out while I went about my business

It was about lunch time when she finally woke up. Her reaction was rather amusing, to tell the truth. Usually people are shocked or disgusted by my appearance, but she totally blew it off. That was the first thing that fell in her favor.

As the day wore on, she went farther and farther away from potentially dying. Whether she knew it or not was a mystery. Her snide comments and sense of humor also helped the matter. There weren't many people with a good sense of humor in the league of villains.

After I saw her use her quirk to levitate some knives to her, something clicked.

I took out my phone and sent a quick message to shigaraki. He would probably be interested in this new development. Not only did she defeat stain, but she possesses a powerful quirk. Apparently she thinks along the same line as stain too. Sounds like a done deal, in my opinion.

I left shortly after to go do villain stuff. (Which translates to grocery shopping)

When I came back, she was out like a light.

Sighing, I put away the food and crashed on the couch.

The next day, I got up at my usual time and checked my phone. A new message popped up. Sure enough, shigaraki was interested.

I went to go wake her up. Leaning over her still form, an idea crossed my mind. Holding my face directly above hers, I wondered how long it would take for her to wake up. Not even a second passed when she bolted up and shoved me back. Impressed by her reflexes, I leaned back and smiled. It seemed that she was indeed worthy of joining the league. After fending off her pissed questions, I told her that my boss wanted to see her.

I offhandedly noticed the chairs and knives returning to their normal position on the floor as soon as she calmed down. She didn't seem aware of her actions, interestingly enough.

She looked calculatingly up at me, suspicion lurking in the depths of her blue eyes. I wondered yet again why she had turned to villainy.

She nodded, then went to the bathroom.

She emerged with mask and full gear on.

She seemed to want to keep her face hidden. Well, that's her problem, I don't care

After coming into that fiasco of an escape attempt, we proceeded to interrogate the man. The girl didn't do much except provide support. She did have a great glare game though.

Figuring that was as much as I'd get out of him, I got up to report to shigaraki. He seemed pleased with the results, for we had previously been able to coerce anything out of that guy.

I ended up having to drag the girl back for she was so exhausted. Apparently my instant ramen wasn't good enough. She lagged more and more as we walked. Glancing back, I saw that although she looked half asleep, she was casing out the surrounding area.

Once back at my place, she instantly claimed the bed. I sighed, but took my place on the couch. It smelled slightly of cigarettes, but it couldn't be helped.
