One archer remaining after Stellar dispatched her own, and the owl he was gunning for was handled swiftly by Helsing instead. Then Playboy's army continued to overwhelm their opposition. It made Vox proud, knowing he was fighting alongside such outstanding individuals. Though a curious eye was drawn to a new combatant in the fray; clad in dark attire and handling the salamanders as well as the best of them. A new hero maybe? He should familiarize himself with the roster again. It was when he took care of the final archer that the battle shifted; fire critters converging into a mighty dragon while the felled avian took on new life as a master of storms. Its winds blew Vox off his perch but with some quick thinking - "[HARDY]!" - he crashed on the ground without much injury, digging his blade through the floor so he wasn't blown back further. "Alright Stellar! Anyone who's ill-equipped to handle this new threat, fall back to her!" Hopefully they'd heed his order. The last thing he wanted was for anyone to bite more than they could chew. The owl was going to be tough to deal with given its range- oh someone was shooting it now! Another new face, he definitely needed to review who was assigned to this raid when he gets back to base. That left the dragon remaining. His brow furrowed, eyeing the molten footprints it created before turning to his fellow sword wielder. "Helsing! If you're staying, get close to me! I have an idea!"
OOC: Ryota takes care of the last of the archers before falling to the same level as the team, applying 'hardy' to himself to minimize his injury. He digs his sword into the floor to root himself in place, telling everyone getting overwhelmed to go to Stellar before calling out to Helsing to execute a plan.

Ryota smiled as the woman walked over and wow, her act was flawless before she even got close to the desk! Was it even an act? Maybe she had a natural showmanship to her which was all the better. She seemed perfect for the agency as far as he knew. But he shouldn't get ahead of himself. The woman needed to be evaluated just like any other applicant. He hummed, pouting at her refusal of the medicine but relented as he tucked the bottle back in the drawer. "Suit yourself! If you ever need it though, don't be afraid to ask."And she had a sense of humour too! Ryota laughed. "Can't have the gin- we save it for celebrations. I love your confidence though!" Heck, he might just share it with her if she passed and became his coworker. His jovial attitude was interrupted when the applicant was having trouble with the pen. Brow furrowing in worry, he dug into a pen cup on his desk. "Ooh, no ink? Not to worry, I'm sure one of these would-" He was cut short when ink was splashed all over his face. His bandana magically evaded the mess, and beyond the red, only the whites of his eyes could be seen. He blinked. "Work."Ah, the smell was strong. There must be a lot. He wiped his face with his sleeve, which would immediately clean it and none of the ink ended up on his clothes. Some... how... Weird. Shaking his head, Ryota's attention returned to the woman, brows rising at the little jar. He smiled as he pointed at it. "Oh you're good. How did you get it so small?" Did she just have those jams on her to pull off a pun? He can admire the dedication. But right, back to the process. "Actually, if your application is finished, I can take you to the testing facility if you're ready to be evaluated today miss...?" Nickelodeon

Many of the archers were dispatched, Vox's quirk carrying him through the motions. Arrow deflected here, an enemy tripped off the wall there, and things were going well enough. His actions towards the actions may have been too harsh but he felt it necessary. Lives were at stake. None of the monsters were backing down. His eyes grew wide as the army of salamanders crawled into the scene, their flaming projectiles readied and launched. He had no answers for them. That was the limit to his power; strong at changing the pace of battle but it couldn't do much against a horde. So it was a relief that Misaki and Rahul came into the scene, supporting Enma as they cleared through the creatures. "Masterfully done, all of you!"Perhaps the students weren't the ones he should worry about however. As an owl descended on an archer and stared him down, Vox felt his movements slow. He hadn't realized his word had gone away until an arrow scratched his arm between the plating, leaving a burn in its wake. Vox groaned before calling out to the others. "Be wary of the owls everyone! One disabled my Quirk!" The masked hero opted to hold his blade one-handed as he worked through the other archers, the bird becoming his main target. "I'm unsure if my Quirk is still aiding you Stellar so keep that in mind!"
OOC: Ryota warns the others about the quirk-nullifying owls as he took an arrow to the knee arm. Working his way towards one of the birds, he warns Stellar as well that she might not have his word anymore.

Gears turned in Vox' mind as he assessed the situation. It was clear they were limited in range. With all three of them being sword wielders the archers would remain uncontested, able to shoot volley after volley without worry. Add in the cheeky effects - he might've snuffed out a flamed arrow with more force than necessary - and they could easily be overwhelmed- and that's without mentioning the knights themselves also being capable of burns and freezing. His answer towards Paragon regarding their attackers' states was grim. "Not anymore unfortunately." He'd heard about it in the debrief. Innocents experimented on, pushed to their limits and losing their humanity as they were transformed into monsters. His brother's Quirk would've been valuable to these people. He was trying not to think about what could've become of him. Relief washed over him when his colleague ran past him; a yellow blur speeding by to protect the students. "Stellar! Excellent of you to drop by!" Her appearance made him take a breath and try to smile. He had to stay positive. Kei wasn't the only one who needed him right now. Vox addressed both students then. "The archers are indeed an issue! Paragon, Helsing, stay grounded and subdue the knights as best as you can! Stellar, we're the best suited to deal with the ranged attackers, especially with this - [REPELLENT]!" The hero wanted the boost so she was going to get with him tagging her back. She'd notice then that the arrows seem to veer to the side as they approached her shield. Not enough to avoid her but she'd have an edge with evading them so long as the word was active. "So let's bring the fight to them!" With that declaration he ran towards the wall before he climbed up it, his armour making it an easy affair. From there he would attempt to overwhelm the archers by rushing them down.
OOC: Ryota confirms to Masao that the nomu are indeed no longer human before instructing her and Enma to fight the knights while he and Stellar deal with the archers. He applies 'repellent' on Stellar so arrows are slightly repelled from her before climbing a wall to engage the archers directly Active Words: Dextrous - Vox Repellent - Stellar Matsu, enma, Masao Ando, Stellar

"Yes! One vote for me!" Ryota did a fist pump for good measure, which was probably a hilarious image given the fact he was dressed as a fictional serial killer. "I knew I could count on you Stellar!" Did he know it was likely favouritism that got him the vote? Yes. Did he care? Absolutely not, not when there were no stakes in the impromptu competition anyway. Which Mai didn't seem to understand. He placed a hand on his chest though, touched by her words. "Aw, thank you Mai. That's so sweet of you to say! And hey- your costume is amazing so no talking it down!" He waggled his finger in admonishment so his response sunk in better, non-the-wiser to her inner turmoil. "Besides, it's not about who's worse, it's about who's better. There's a difference."Upon hearing the familiar name, Ryota turned to the person Mai was addressing and lo and behold, there was the shark girl. He smiled underneath his mask, then raised his arms when he realized she wouldn't see said smile. "Mar! Glad you could make it! I see you too are saddled up for a good time! Why, that's another fun comparison between you and-" Ryota paused. Right, can't have everyone address the man at once. Instead he focused his attention back to the group and kept his voice low. "Guys, I'm worried about Mark. He wants to be alone but I don't think he's in a good headspace for it right now. I feel like we should take turns checking up on him."lonewolf, Stellar, Lawbringer, Iphigenia Pavlina, Shirayuki Mai, Mar

It would be sickening for Vox to admit he wasn't here for the civilians. He was a hero after all. Saving people was supposed to be his job. The thing he's worked all his life to be able to do with utmost confidence, to the point where he's instilled trust in the people he saved. But someone important to him was taken. He was somewhere in here. He had to be, because they were out of leads to follow if he wasn't. Personal motives aside, he still had a job to do. Vox, clad in his usual red armour, turned to his unit with his head held high. "Listen up everyone! I know it is easy to want to defeat your foes, but remember our reason for being here. Several people have been taken hostage or work in this facility against their will. The more time we waste, the more time they have to relocate them all. So stay safe, watch over each other but most of all do not let these obstacles slow you down!"He drew his blade from his side and faced ahead. "Move forward! [DEXTROUS]!" As Vox ran, his sword seem almost drawn towards the arrows, deflecting them away from himself with ease.
OOC: Vox imparts some words to his team before charging ahead, applying 'dextrous' to himself to deflect the oncoming arrows. Active Words: Dextrous - Vox Matsu, enma

Ryota was in his own apartment when he received the call. It was incredibly vague but he didn't force an explanation, not when the voice was frantic and he could hear several things shatter through the line. She pleaded for his help and he would give it, no questions asked.
When he arrived, the place was a mess. Furniture broken and pieces of glass and ceramic littering the floor. The fight he expected though was nowhere to be seen which he found odd. All that remained was Yaoyao's curled up form and her and Kei's pet yearning for her attention.
And that's the thing. Where was Kei?
Static filled his ears when they explained what happened.
How could this happen again? Happen to his brother, while he was again too far to stop whoever dared to lay a hand on him. Worse yet, he was alone. No class he was with at the wrong time this time. No other reports made in the building. He had to have been targeted. Ryota's palms nearly bled from how deep he dug his nails in them.
But instead he willed himself to breathe. The anger he was feeling- that wouldn't help them. He was the eldest right now. The one who was supposed to be level-headed. The one who should have the assurances that he'll be brought back home, as well as the answers on how to achieve that. The one he had right now- it was a long shot but it was something.
Ryota knelt down in front of the girl so he could look her in the eye. "Yaoyao. I know you're angry. Asking you not to be is the last thing I would do after what happened. I will however request that you use that anger on those who deserve it most." He offered a hand for her to hopefully take. "Come with me to the agency. Anyone you think would want to help ensure his safety, tell them to come too."
"We have a lead on where he could possibly be taken."

It was over. Hati was drained and Ryota frowned, unable to help him further. He wasn't a healer. He couldn't reverse the damage he endured. He could force the man to ignore the pain maybe, but it wouldn't affect his injuries. It'd be a hinderance for the medics if anything. All he could do was listen to his plea as he released the people he trapped. "I will see to it that they be safe. You have my word."So more of his group had been afflicted. Whoever was controlling Hati likely had a hold on his allies as well. It was information he could bring back to his agency. For now though he had to make sure everyone was alright. Ryota didn't want to leave the man alone but his options were limited; his coworkers weren't with him. So with a sigh he stepped away for a moment, running towards the girl who ran into the house he transformed as a blade was nearly brought down on Hati without his knowledge. Had it completed its course he would've sprinted back in a heartbeat. Willing his persona back into gear, he raises a hand in greeting. "Hello there! I am, yes! Are you alright? I apologize about the house, that was my doing!" He placed a hand on his scarf. "[FLOATING]!" The building would regain its sturdiness as the cloth billowed to a non-existent wind. Before he could speak to her further, another more familiar voice rung in his ears. He turned to see his aunt was there, worse for wear but otherwise standing. Smiling under his mask, he gave her a hug. "Oba-san! It's so good to see you're okay!" It didn't change the fact her life was put at risk though. They were going to pay for that. Ryota released her from his hold as she spoke to him about the allies- right, they must've appeared during that conversation. He eyed the lying man warily before returning his gaze to her. "Are you sure you'll be alright? It wouldn't be responsible of me to leave an unconscious criminal in the midst of civilians, regardless of how capable the civilians are." She couldn't see it but he was giving her a critical stare. He hadn't forgotten that talk. But it wouldn't be responsible of him not to check on the other towns on the island either. Who knew what state they would be in? With another sigh he nodded. "Alright, but if any trouble arises call me okay? You have my number." He pointed at Megumi then. "And watch over her please! At least until she's on her way home." Then to the girl. "Unfortunately I have to scout the other villages here, but this nice woman will keep you safe until authorities arrive!"With that he'd make his leave, none-the-wiser to the fate Hati was about to meet.
OOC: Ryota heeds Hati and Tsukiko's words to set out in search of the other gang members, leaving Hati and Megumi in his aunt's "care". Active Words: Large - HouseElastic - HouseExhausted - Hati Floating - Vox' scarf Fanthes, Olivia Liang, Tsukiko Hada

He shouldn't be as elated as he was when Hati soared thanks to the makeshift trampoline, even when it was the least of what he deserved. Vengeance was an ugly feeling after all. Unbecoming of a hero. What would his coworkers think if they knew his opinion on what fate the man should receive? Granted, Hati wasn't the reason he picked up his blade. They'll have to remain in the dark for a while longer. Ryota bent his legs, preparing himself to avoid what he thought was a collision with the hulking vigilante, but he didn't expect the punch. The resulting shockwave knocked him away instead and he landed on the ground hard, rolling in the dirt before he pushed himself to his feet and skidded the rest of the way. A laugh, breathless as it was, escaped him at Hati's first words. "You seem aware of what I can do! Trust me, the number of tricks I have are infinite!" Underneath the bravado, Ryota was deep in thought. The man's strength was immense; he couldn't take more hits like that. He needed to stop him here and now. There had to be a good word for it, he just needed to figure out what it would be. The halt in the man's advance made Ryota pause, blade remaining in its sheath as he listened. The confusion, the resistance- he was being controlled surely? He let go of his blade, hand reaching out fruitlessly as Hati fell to his knees. If the hero was capable of swearing he would've cursed himself. He was so focused on taking the man down that he didn't consider the blank stare in the beginning. How out-of-character he seemed compared to the vigilante who brought criminals right to the authorities' doorstep. He should've known something was wrong. But it also meant he wasn't to blame for his aunt's disappearance. Whoever was responsible- he'd have to search for them too. For now he needed to focus, head raised when the scream came and the tendrils were launched his way. To think his sparring against his brother's girlfriend would be useful for this moment. Ryota crouched. "Stay where you are Hati, I'm coming for you!" With that declaration he ran forward, ducking and weaving from side to side to avoid the lashes. When he was close enough he'd try to reach out and touch the man. "[EXHAUSTED]!" In his mind, the shadows couldn't be controlled when one didn't have the energy to even summon them. If his hunch was wrong, then at worst it would at least weaken him.
OOC: Ryota gets knocked off the tree and rolls on the ground before he stabilized himself. Shifting his focus on saving Hati instead of killing him, he tries to avoid the following shadow lashes and apply 'exhausted' on Hati in an attempt to stop the shadow control.

"Exactly! Remember the aim of the assignment future hero!" Fighting the bad guy was good and all, but bad guys still needed to be brought to justice. That couldn't exactly be done if the bad guy got away. This was the lesson to be instilled in the students today. Boy was Kenta fast though! Not only did he dodge the lid by the way the collision sounded - it was less scream of pain and more clang on pavement - but he also caught up with him in no time at all, unleashing his makeshift net on the target. Ryota didn't notice it until it was too late, and before he knew it he crashed on the ground, gel stuck all over his clothes. He got stronger with his Quirk sure but it wasn't like it'd help him get rid of the mess. Which meant he wasn't freeing himself any time soon. Seeing his involvement finished, the pretend villain dropped his act to congratulate his captor. "Excellent execution Dynogel! You caught me!" He craned his head to the more explosive battle, manifested beam sword swinging about to take down the opposition. "Now I believe your friends need you. Go on then, give it your all! Plus Ultra!"

His eyes glanced at the woman's blade - right, so both this stranger and his aunt were armed, alright then - and he raised a hand placating. The last thing he wanted to do was antagonize her in addition to Hati. It wasn't like he could do much else, she was already- wait, where was she going? "Careful, that stuff is dangerous!" Ryota could only watch on as she hovered over the mass of shadows to take on the man on her own, only to dive into the depths herself. That's- no- Then another voice. He turned his head as Tsukiko sent him a salute. They'll talk later? How could they when she- "Oba-san, wait!" His hand reached out fruitlessly as she sunk too. Now that was two people he could've saved but didn't. One of them was family. He- he was actually here this time and he still couldn't- Someone called his name. Highlighted his armour. His adversary was still here. His hand balled into a fist. This just got personal. Ryota lowered his hand as he turned to Hati. "Indeed, I am the Madlib Hero, Vox! Your next opponent." He stared him down, whispering to himself. "And your last."He crouched down to steady himself as his surroundings shook and Hati grew in size, like he was absorbing the shadows' power. Under his mask, Ryota furrowed his brow. He could take a beating but not a swing from arms that large. He took a breath. It's like any other fight. Adapt as always. As the hulking behemoth jumped up, Ryota slapped the roof for a second time. "[ELASTIC]!" The shingles would dip under his weight, and he dug his feet in to then leap out and onto the tree still standing next to the house. Gripping the branch with one hand to hold the hilt of his blade in the other, he watched as Hati came down. Let's see how he tackles that.
OOC: Seeing both Tsukiko and Olivia go under and assuming them to have perished, Ryota vows to take Hati down. He makes the house elastic with his Quirk and uses it to bounce to a tree, readying his hand on his blade as he watches how Hati handles the newly conjured bouncy castle.

"You dated him?!" Ryota knew she had a few partners - less than the actual number of course, what with him being too young to be involved in conversations about her relationships - but talk about a small world. "I would love an explanation on this when we're done here!"He blinked as the man uttered his hero name, turning to him. "And you recognize me?" A silly question all things considered. He'd been on the scene for a few years and made no attempt at hiding his exploits; his armour alone was enough to turn heads. Hati though, he'd been around long before he made his debut. He was almost flattered by the acknowledgement. But that shouldn't matter right now. Ryota shook his head. "Hold on- what grand scheme are you talking about? What impending disaster?" It couldn't be worse than what was currently happening could it? But he thought back to the environmental crises. The time when the majority of the city fell to a sudden sleep. He didn't want to imagine what could be worse than that. He took a breath. "Hati. If you stop what you're doing, I can take you to my agency. You could explain what it is you and the others are preparing for. If a disaster is coming, we want to help prevent it." Protecting the people was always the goal. He didn't take issue with those who simply wanted to do the same. But the offer didn't work. The hulking man was readying himself for something, but before Ryota could react, he was pushed away. He stumbled back but caught himself before he fell. "Oba-san? What are you-" His eyes widened at the shadows spreading. "Alright then, running!"His aunt seemed strangely skilled with her makeshift chain, something he was thankful for as she readied herself to move to higher ground but he would definitely ask later. For now he made his way to the house the other party perched herself on, climbing up the wall to meet her on the roof. "Greetings! This house is growing unstable but I can buy us some time. Make use of it the best way you see fit!"With that as his only warning, Ryota slammed his hands down on the tile. "[LARGE]!" The house would grow then, providing more space between the two and the shadows climbing upward.
OOC: Ryota's confused on what disaster may strike Japan and makes an offer to let Hati explain to his agency. When that fails, he's surprised by Tsukiko's push but follows her order to get away from the shadows, climbing up Olivia's house and making it large to buy them time for their next move.

"Experienced students playing as the villains! Now that's smart- they could keep their Quirks under wraps. As you were aware, someone was keeping distance from me during the other exercise." Such was the drawback of being a front-facing hero: their information was public so anyone could glean their powers and act accordingly. "That being said, I can be the bad guy again! I just have to take a different approach with my Quirk." Him? Using it in secret? Now that would be devastating. The students were going to learn so much. Ryota then snorted at the conspiring. "A drive is an event hosted in order to raise money for something, like a bake sale or a gala. As for what we could be running..." He tapped the straw against his mask in thought before- lightbulb! "It could be a marathon! Simple premise of completing a course to raise money for charity."A laugh escaped him as he shook his head. "And you did decide to stand at the bar when the drinks are free. But not to worry-" The masked man patted Mark on the shoulder. "I got this."With that he left the cowboy to his devices and quickly made his way to the rest of the group. "Evening everyone, good to see you all again!" He pointed at Not-Sadako and laughed. "Iphigenia! I thought you were the resident counsellor for a second, nicely done!" Then there was The New Guy TM. Ryota gasped as directed his finger to him Spiderman-style. "And you! Samesies on the costume! Well, more similarsies but you get the idea- I don't have quite as much of that going on." He gestured at the man's muscle, bulky compared to his own toned but small frame. He stood next to him as he called out to the frog. "Penny! Anonymous voting is no fun, I want to judge all your choices! Some of us have a fun comparison anyhow!" Ryota pointed between himself and Max. "For example- ladies, who wore it better? Me or him?"

Well this got complicated. The day started off normal enough. Ryota and Stellar were pulled from their patrol routes to instead investigate the islands off the coast of Japan, due to the nationwide announcement that a wealth of research and treasures resided there. It screamed trap to him but it was too late; interests had been piqued, so the least he could do now was ensure the safety of the explorers who decided to go. So began their own boat journey with Ryota in his full armour. Yaoyao accompanied them as well on his request; she needed credits for her hero course so he was all too happy to offer his aid by letting her tag along. It had been smooth sailing so far- fingers crossed that it was going to be a quiet day and his sister-in-law brother's partner wouldn't need to see a fight so closely after everything she'd gone through. But then he got the text. He seemed to be the only one in their group to have received it. Deeming it too dangerous for Yaoyao to join, Ryota had her stay on the ship with Stellar while he took the jet ski and set out on his own towards the message's coordinates. When he arrived, shadows blotted out the sun. The place was unnaturally dark and empty despite the number of houses in it. It was a ghost town, save for a couple civilians who were drawn to the location in the same way he was. Complication one: one of them was his aunt. Arguments ensued. The town wasn't safe to be in so he wanted her to evacuate, while she refused to do so due to needing to bring something back for her superior. They only ceased when a large man approached the three, with Ryota instantly on high alert due to the shadows emanating from his body. Were they the same ones that darkened the place? Was he responsible for the whole thing? Such questions couldn't be answered in the moment due to complication two: the large man was on the attack. He was glad the other civilian got away, but it meant he and Tsukiko remained. Luckily had the same idea as his aunt and ducked under the whip, his flexibility easily carrying him through the motion. He stared and pointed at her sword once he stood again. "I thought you said that was a prop! And you know this man?" Ryota only recognized him from the rumours, but from her question it was as if they've met personally before. Regardless of her answer, the hero turned to Hati. "If your plan resulted in this town's current state, I'm afraid it has to be stopped." Ryota raised his hands and took a fighting stance, palms open. "Surrender now or I will have to make you do so!"
