A/N: I get to introduce Gogo in this chapter, yay~ I'm trying to elaborate more on fight scenes because I suck at them and I need practice. Also I've been listening to a lot of Creature Feature while writing this, which is just wonderful background music for this story.

Thank you again to everyone that favorited/followed/reviewed. I'm happy you guys like it. ^^

Chapter five

Hiro knew aunt Cass suspected Hiro wasn't sick. She wasn't stupid but still Hiro hoped that he could fool her at least a little longer. But he also knew she wouldn't say anything. That was one of the things he loved about his aunt, she wouldn't force him to talk if he didn't want to.

Hiro sighed. He had to go to school eventually. He had to do something eventually but every time he tried to do anything the images…

He slapped a hand to his mouth. 'Not again. Please not again…'

He wanted to be like Wasabi so much…was that what could happen to him too?

Would it happen to Tadashi too…?

A soft knocking brought him out of his thoughts. It was coming from the window.

Hiro poked his head out of his covers to investigate and sure enough there was a figure staring at him from the other side of his bedroom window. He couldn't make out any features but he knew those eyes.

"Honey?!"

Hiro quickly got out of bed and made his way over to the window to pry it open.

"What are you doing here? How did you-"

Hiro stopped his questions as soon as he got a better look at her. She was wearing bright pink and purple armor.

"Honey…you-"

"It's pretty great huh?" She had a huge grin on her face and although Honey was the happiest person Hiro had ever met he swore he had never seen her this happy before.

"Uh yeah…but this is the third floor, how are you-" Hiro stopped once he looked down. Honey was standing on some bright green goop?

'What the…?'

"You gonna invite me in or what?"

"Huh? Oh! Yeah, come in."

Hiro stepped aside to let Honey Lemon into his room and she hopped off of the bright blue goop to land gracefully onto the floor. Hiro was kind of impressed.

"What happened to you?" Hiro was pretty sure he knew the answer and even though he didn't want to ask he had to know for sure.

Honey Lemon didn't answer at first. She walked around the room slowly, taking in all of Hiro's possessions.

"…I did it Hiro."

"Did what?" Hiro said slowly. 'Please no.'

"I made my wish."

Hiro felt like someone splashed cold water on his face.

"You…did what?"

"Don't be angry please. Look, I know what happened to Wasabi-" Hiro flinched when she said his name but Honey chose not to acknowledge it "was hard but I can do this."

Hiro didn't say anything, he couldn't. He felt like he might faint and everything seemed to be swimming.

'Please no. Not her too.'

"Hiro…? Say something Hiro."

Honey Lemon put her hand on his shoulder and the contact brought Hiro out of his thoughts. He looked up at her, his best friend. Her eyes were searching his for answers to what he was thinking.

"I just…I…I don't want what happened to Wasabi to happen to you too."

Hiro was squeezing his eyes tight, hands balled into fists. He didn't want to look at her right now but to his surprise he was being enveloped in a warm hug.

"H-Honey…?"

"It's okay Hiro. I'm not going anywhere, I promise. Nothing will ever happen to me."

She pulled away from him slightly and grasped his face in between her hands.

"I did this to protect you and I intend to keep that. So don't worry all right?"

Hiro wasn't sure he believed her but he nodded anyways. For her benefit.

"Now then, I want to test out these new powers I got. What do you say to getting out of this house with me and going on patrol?"

Hiro debated it for a bit. Was he ready to go out again?

"…Okay."

Honey Lemon smiled, taking his hand in hers and together the two of them set off into the night. Hiro wasn't sure he was ready but if Honey was with him then that gave him strength.

Finding a witch was harder than Wasabi made it look it turned out. And the two friends felt like they had been walking for hours, with Honey Lemon holding her egg (It was a lovely shade of pink) out in front of her.

"Ah! There!" Honey Lemon shouted suddenly startling Hiro. She took off running in the direction of the witch dragging Hiro behind her. And to Hiro's surprise he started to laugh for the first time in a week. Her excitement was infectious and Hiro realized this is exactly what he needed.

Honey Lemon stopped in front of a small building. "I think this is where it is. You ready?"

Hiro nodded but before the two could enter the witches dimension a flying disc came out of nowhere startling both of them.

"Wha-"

"Hey!" A small figure jumped down in front of them. A woman with short black hair and purple streaks dressed in yellow and black armor was glaring at them. "Not so fast. I claimed this region."

"Claimed this-what are you talking about? Claimed this region?" Honey Lemon pushed Hiro behind her as she addressed the woman.

"Exactly what I said. This place used to belong to that Wasabi guy right? Well now I want it. So this witch is mine and it seems like it might drop a grief seed so…you can go now."

"Grief seed…?"

The woman scoffed. "You kidding me little girl? You don't even know what a grief seed is? Didn't that Wasabi guy teach you anything?"

Honey Lemon bristled. Something about this woman set her teeth on edge. She couldn't place it but she didn't seem…all there. She remembered Wasabi warning her about witch hunters who fought each other for fun and contest. Apparently, witch hunters like Wasabi were rare. The last thing Honey wanted was a fight with a potential ally.

"Look, maybe we could work something out? We could help each other defeat the witch and then you can take this grief seed or whatever."

"Hmph…yeah, like I'd believe that."

"I'm being honest. I don't want to fight so maybe we could-"

"You know you're really starting to piss me off. People like us don't get the opportunity to be goody two shoes in our line of business. That's what got that Wasabi guy killed wasn't it?"

"Don't you talk about Wasabi like that!" Hiro shouted, to the surprise of both Honey Lemon and the woman.

"Hiro…?" He was fuming and it scared Honey. She had never seen Hiro this mad before.

"Ooooh…so the shrimp can speak eh?" The woman's expression was completely uninterested and for some reason this pissed Hiro off even more.

"You. Shut. Up." Hiro was visibly shaking now and he glared at the woman. "Wasabi was much better than you could ever be. So you. Shut. Up."

"Well I kinda doubt that considering he's you know…dead and all."

That did it. Hiro lunged at her but Honey quickly grabbed him around the middle.

"Hiro! Are you insane?"

"She has no right to talk about our friend that way!"

Honey was struggling to hold Hiro back and the woman just laughed at the display in front of her.

"You should keep a better leash on that one." The woman said, that same bored expression playing on her face. "Before I decide to put him down for you."

"I'd like to see you-"

"Hiro, stop."

Hiro immediately stopped struggling in Honey Lemon's arms. Her voice sent a chill down his spine. He had never heard her get angry. Shouting was one thing, shouting Hiro was used to (it came with the territory when you got in as much trouble as he did), but this? This was the quiet anger that chilled you to the bone. The kind he never expected Honey to be capable of.

Even the woman was surprised by it, taking a slight step back.

Honey Lemon released Hiro and stepped closer to the woman. "If it's a fight you want. Then fight me. Right here, right now."

"Heh, interesting…" The woman smirked slightly this time. "Names Gogo by the way, nice to meet ya."

"Honey Lemon."

Hiro realized he should probably get to cover and quickly did so, hiding a ways away behind a tree. Not the best cover but it was something and he could still watch the fight.

Honey Lemon threw a tiny glowing ball at Gogo and she dodged to the side. It exploded in a flash of bright green, covering the area in goop. Gogo charged at Honey and Hiro was shocked, she was fast. Really fast.

Gogo continued her pursuit towards Honey and Honey tried to hit her with another ball but she missed again. It was here that Hiro recognized Honey's disadvantage, her weapon was meant for long range combat and against a fast opponent like Gogo…Honey was just too slow.

Honey Lemon didn't even have time to react before Gogo was in her face, a smile on her lips. She paused for a moment, seeming to relish in the shock on Honey's face before she kicked her in the stomach. Hard.

Honey Lemon was sent flying backwards and Hiro was running towards her.

"No." Honey Lemon said towards Hiro firmly, effectively stopping him in his tracks.

"I'm not down yet."

"Good." Gogo smirked again.

Honey Lemon got to her feet and the fight began again. Gogo once again charged at Honey but this time instead of throwing a ball directly at Gogo Honey aimed towards her feet. It exploded on the ground but this time it was blue. The ground froze and Gogo yelped as her feet slid out from under her. Honey Lemon leaped into the sky, her leg extended to come crashing down on Gogo's face.

Gogo twisted out of the way and Honey landed next to her instead, the ice cracking underneath her heels.

"So that's how you want to play huh? Fight to the death?" Gogo said, breathing heavily. She brought her leg up kicking Honey Lemon in the back sending her forward. Honey Lemon hit her head on the ice and her vision started to blur. She was pretty sure she had at least a mild concussion but before she could respond she was being flipped over onto her back. A knee came down onto her stomach and Honey Lemon started to wheeze. Gogo shoved a disc against her throat.

"This what you wanted huh? No more playing?" Gogo said, malice was in her eyes. Honey looked over towards Hiro who was staring at the two of them, open mouthed and terrified.

'Hiro…I'm sorry. Looks like I won't be able to keep my promise…'

Honey Lemon closed her eyes and braced herself for a death that never came. Confused, she opened them only to see Gogo being lifted into the air and tossed aside like she weighed nothing. A hand was reaching down towards her and Honey blinked through the haze from her previous head injury to see-

"You?!"

It was the man who had tried to kill Kyubei the last time she saw him, the one Hiro said was his brother, the one who she was pretty sure was bad news and he had saved her.
