Work Text:
A blurry figure rushed through the air, swinging through empty streets on dark tendrils of green energy. The person swung freely, wading through the empty air between dilapidated buildings in a mesmerizing fashion.
“Hm… Danger Sense isn’t pinging, so maybe All for One stopped with the assassins today?” A gruff but still young voice hummed in intrigue, before shaking their masked head. “You know Ninth, you could always find somewhere and take a break… Please?” A motherly voice talked to the swinging figure, earning a muffled click of their teeth at the worried tone in the woman’s voice.
They ignored the misplaced worry and landed on a taller buildings roof, lifting up their dirtied mask to see the ruined cityscape before them clearer. Midoriya Izuku sat perched on the roof of a rundown building and scanned his surroundings through his dim and weary eyes.
Izuku’s green hair was matted down and covered in grime making it look blacker, but that didn’t deter him from running his gloved hand through it.
“The last one was a step up from before, but nothing too dangerous… His quirk was a problem, however. I need to figure out how to use Fa Jin before I run into another one or I might be in real trouble.” The teen mumbled to himself, closing his eyes for a moment to arrange his thoughts.
“Ninth… will you listen to me this once? Your body will-“ The woman’s voice was cut off as Izuku’s hand blurred through the air and released a tendril of Black Whip to capture the person creeping up behind the boy.
“Ah-!” A high-pitch voice screamed out as they were dragged out of the shadows in front of Izuku. “Who are you?” He questioned fiercely, his tone dark.
The dark-haired girl in his grasp struggled against the bindings of Black Whip that held her in place, shutting her eyes in a strained effort. “L-let me go!” She yelled as Izuku held her in place and studied the girl.
Trapped in front of him was a short, petite girl with horse ears and a tail the same color as her hair. Her pink eyes sparkled in the moonlight, and flashed with emotions he couldn’t quite place. The girls’ outfit looked like something straight out of a fairytale story, further enhanced by the beautiful blue roses on her hat and on the neck of her dress.
Izuku mentally filed away his thoughts on her quirk, and instead moved to remove any weapons she might have had on her person.
“I’ll only ask one more time, who are you? Where you sent here by All for One, or are you here for another reason?” He interrogated, pausing for a moment to look into the girls eyes after throwing the daggers she had to the side.
She looked like she wanted to say something, only to snap her mouth shut and look up at the taller teen in defiance. “I… I don’t have to say anything to you, Villain!” Izuku, who was getting ready to leave after not receiving an answer, stopped in his tracks and looked at her in surprise.
“Vil- Villain?” He asked aloud, hoping to get some form of clarification for his sudden mischaracterization. Izuku filtered out the voices of the vestiges in favor of learning more about the girl in front of him.
“Yeah, villain! I-I heard about how you treated all of those people earlier and now I’m here to stop you once and for all! I’ll make sure you can’t hurt anyone else!” A burst of blue energy erupted from the girl and pushed the hero in training back to the edge of the roof.
He dismissed Black Whip in favor of activating One for All at 15%, rushing through the wave of energy to tackle the girl who was now a clear threat. In an instant, Izuku cut a path through and braced his shoulder in preparation, only to be met with air leaving him tumbling through the sky.
Activating Float, the teen kicked the air behind him and hung in the air in anticipation.
A stab of Danger Sense alerted him to a strike coming towards his neck. Acting on instinct, Izuku transitioned horizontally in the air, flicking out with his left leg to deflect it. The air cracked at the impact, blasting both of the fighters limbs back.
Using the momentum, Izuku spun around mid-air a full 360° and held his arm in position to deliver a finger flick. Pushing the power of One for All to his current maximum the moment before his finger left contact with his thumb, he released a devastatingly powerful burst of air pressure that turned the roof to rubble on contact and had the added effect of pushing him further into the sky.
Izuku waited in the air, watching for any sign of his opponent, and stretched his senses as far as they could go.
His eyes, enhanced by the power of One for All, picked up a sign of movement and latched onto it, following behind the object Izuku floated along slowly careful not to make a sound. The teen waited until all signs of movement ceased, and dropped down on top of it. “Hah!” He yelled out as he shifted his weight to hold it in an arm lock.
“Where do you think you’re going!?” Izuku harshly asked, his eyes narrowing when he didn’t receive an answer. Letting the adrenaline drain out of his system, he sighed in annoyance as he realized he was tricked with a fake person.
“Ninth.” The voice of Hikage Shinomori, the 4th user of One for All, sternly called out to him, making the teens face scrunch in light anger. “You need to take a break, otherwise nothing you do will allow you to defeat All For One. It is your decision, but the fact you were caught off guard this easily…” The older vestige of the man let trailed off, letting his words seep into Izuku’s mind.
As he stood there, he thought back to his friends that he left behind. Izuku wondered how they were faring after all they went through. He thought about all the people that died and were permanently crippled, the people that fought tooth and nail to let him an unimportant teen who just had a foolish dream, that brought him to this current moment.
His thoughts went darker, bringing him into places he was sure he left behind. Izuku shook his head, the resolve in his muddled eyes bringing back a light that had disappeared, only, this wasn’t the same as his previous light, this was a light that was bent on justice.
What that justice was… has yet to be seen.
She opened her eyes, the dark filter they had taken once again draining as she gazed upon the room she was in. Surrounding her were blue roses on every wall, and poster filling any place uncovered. Every shelf was filled with books and some trophies sparsely placed.
She flopped onto her massive bed and curled into a ball, thinking about the events that happened prior.
This girl, Rice Shower, let her eyes drift to random places as she thought about the green haired villain that proved too powerful for her current strength. Rice felt disappointed that she couldn’t do more to stop his dastardly plan, but she was reassured that everything would be fine by the boss.
The horse eared girl resolved herself further, jumping off of her bed (An action that she regretted as soon as the fluffy pillow she laid on left her hands.) and leaving the room. This time for sure, she wouldn’t let that villain harm anyone else.
Endeavor, the current Number One Hero of Japan, flew through the inky darkness of night, watching out for any danger that might enter his blazing sight. His quirk, Hellflame, propelled him forward towards an unknown destination.
After flying over the city, he was assigned to patrol he touched down on a building, the flames from his feet lightly melting the roof underneath him. Enji looked outwards to the murky sky and sighed, pulling out his comms device to contact Hawks and All Might about his findings.
“Endeavor to Hawks and All Might, I finished my search but… I couldn’t find any traces of All For One anywhere,” “That’s to be expected Endeavor, I don’t think he wants us to find him.” Came the response of All Might, every person in the comms channel letting out a sigh. “Well, we need to find him before something else happens, especially with all of the prison escapees we rounded up.” The fiery man ground out, his tone turning grave.
“Either way, we need to keep looking. We’ll connect back after Hawks reports in-“ And with the grace of a bird, said hero yelled over whatever it was that Endeavor was going to say in a hurry. “You guys need to get to this location, fast! I didn’t get everything, but I’m pretty sure Deku is fighting my predecessor! From what I can see, you’re the closest one out of the three of us Endeavor, so hurry!”
It took no further words, all three heroes springing into action immediately, before they were off towards the sight of battle.
“Don’t you dare move, if you want to keep your limbs.” Izuku stood completely still, wracking his mind with multiple plans to fight the woman before him.
He had just finished resting for a bit, and had started his patrol again. He still made sure to look out for the horse-eared girl from earlier, but left her off of his radar for the most part since she didn’t pose much of a threat.
Just as Izuku was continuing his search for All For One, he remembered that he needed to warn the other three that were assisting him. Right before he could even speak into it, a magenta and pink bullet pierced through it, knocking it out of his hands.
And that all led to this current situation. “She must be another assassin sent by All For One!” He watched the hired guns actions closely, following as she shaped a bullet from her hair and loaded it into her hand.
Izuku waited patiently, looking out for any signs that she might attack him. A sharp ping from Danger Sense made him somersault forward, landing in a crouch facing his previous position. “What? There’s nothing!?” He questioned in his mind, looking out for any other movement.
“Hey… You moved, didn’t you?” The sniper asked, before Izuku dodged a bullet and swung between the high-rise buildings. “There can’t be anyone else, this must be who Hawks warned me about! The bullet that broke my communicator… She’s the former public safety commission hero, Lady Nagant!”
“It seems like you’ve made your choice, not like you had one anyways… You’re coming with me.” She calmly stated, as if it were fact, before she shot once again.
Izuku kept moving, but kept himself in the air with Float and Black Whip. Danger Sense pinged harder than it had before, and he turned around to see another bullet heading straight for him. “A curved shot!?” The teen held his hands out, enhanced with OFA and enclosed them upon the bullet, the force of which pushed him back through the air.
“No wonder All For One wants you, I thought you would have keeled over after the first shot, but clearly you’re stronger than you look. Or maybe… That quirk of yours is more interesting than I thought.” Lady Nagant fired another bullet, one that Izuku barely managed to dodge.
“Damnit!” Izuku grit his teeth in frustration “Without Danger Sense I would’ve been done in at the start!” He ducked behind some buildings and attempted to formulate a plan while on the move. “I’m at a distance from her, so maybe… If I get close to her, I should be able to cut out her range advantage!” He stuck with this plan, dodging any potshots the fallen hero sent his way.
“I should be close! There’s about a kilometer between us, so if I speed up just a bit-!” The green hero pivoted, planting his feet on a building, and pushed off with the might of One For All.
“That’s the first time anyone dodged more than one bullet… too bad you won’t leave my sight!” Izuku continued forward, moving in a semi-erratic pattern to throw off the snipers aim. “If I keep at this speed, I should reach her in a few seconds. If Lady Nagant can’t move faster than me with One for All, then I should be able to beat her-“ He was interrupted by Danger Sense pinging, making him turn around to deflect the bullet shot at him.
He was going to continue with his momentum, but was stopped when another bullet scraped his inner thigh. “Grkk!” Izuku fell downwards, the pain momentarily overtaking his mind, before catching himself upside down with Float. “How? Did she bring someone else with her?” He wondered, looking toward the location of the last shot.
“Oh, I see what’s happening now. Damn it.” Izuku spat angrily in his head, witnessing the woman jumping through the air as if on invisible platforms. “She was sent by All For One, of course he would have given her another quirk!”
He held his leg to quell the bleeding to no avail, instead repositioning himself in mid-air to regain his balance. “She wants me incapable of fighting back before she captures me, seeing as she didn’t aim to kill me. The curved shot was meant to distract me, while she instinctively lined up the last one. That means she’s shooting me without any calculations, just using the instincts she’s built up! Because of that she decided to close the distance between us.”
Izuku stayed mid-air, crouching down in preparation. “Not even the fourth’s quirk can help me dodge her consecutive shots, so I need to get creative…” He held his arms in front of him, as a massive wave of smoke billowed out of his body, obscuring the entire area around him. “Sixth! Full Blast!”
The teen hurriedly left his position in the air, landing on a building away from it. “Hey Kid! I hope you realize what you’re doing! Your opponent is an agile sniper, you can’t just expect to stay as a sitting duck in my quirk, or you’ll die.” The vestige of En Tayutai, the sixth user of One for All, manifested behind him, lightly lecturing him as the boy sat in strain.
Izuku didn’t answer him, instead opting to repetitively squat in place. “Wait… don’t tell me you’re gonna…” “I know what you’re trying to pull off Ninth, but you said it yourself. Don’t you need to master my quirk first?” Bruce asked in slight intrigue as he manifested. “I know what I said… but I don’t have the time to do that. I need to master this move right here and now!”
Izuku finished his preparation, bending down one final time. He clenched Gran Torino’s cape in his right hand, while his left steadied himself. “Third! Fa Jin!” He yelled out as the red kinetic energy built up in his legs. “Now, Let’s do this!” He used Black Whip, and sent out four tendrils in each direction, on carrying each accessory he had on himself, waiting for the telltale sound of Lady Nagant’s gun firing.
Four shots rang out and hit their marks, but none of them were Izuku. Using the sound to pinpoint her location, the now maskless teen released his hold on the third users quirk. “Using Black Whip to release decoys from different directions, I could finally confirm where she was shooting from… Above! Using that opening I just created, I can catch her!”
The roof under Izuku crumbled, blasting into the building's interior as he rocketed up to Lady Nagant’s position in the sky and firmly grasping her arm. “What the hell did he do in that smokescreen just now!? Not only does he have more than one quirk, but he just got much faster out of nowhere!” The short-haired woman concluded in her mind, staring in shock at the boy who just accomplished such a feat.
“This fight is over Lady Nagant! Please, just tell me where All For One is!” Izuku yelled as he gripped her arm, slowly tightening his hold. Instead of receiving an answer, something that was really starting to annoy him, he was met the woman’s sniper barrel impacting his sternum. “You haven’t won this fight yet, so why would I tell you anything!?” She responded, throwing the stunned Izuku away from her.
He recovered from his mid-air tumbling, and began to swing with Black Whip once again. “Why… Why are you doing this, weren’t you a hero!?” Izuku screamed out, hoping he would get some kind of answer, instead receiving a bullet that scraped his back, and tore his medical pouch open. “She’s behind me!”
He stayed in the air, looking for some kind of opening. “If you really want to know that badly, then I’ll tell you; I got tired of it.” The fact he actually got someone to tell him something made Izuku pause, leading to him getting shot by another bullet. “What?” He questioned as he held his stomach in pain.
“I’ve had to do so much… to preserve peace in society.” While Lady Nagant spoke, Izuku was busy dodging the shots she sent his way. “I’ve killed so many people, whether they be heroes, villains or even normal people. I needed to maintain a façade while I killed those who may or may not have deserved it.
“You might not believe me, but some heroes worked with villains for wealth and fame. All of those people, the Commission ordered to have them silenced.” Izuku swung around the buildings, surprised as he took in all of this information, before he gasped in shock as he remembered a detail he almost forgot. “You killed the President of the Commission?” He asked, his eyes wide as he dodged another bullet.
Izuku continued to dodge all of the bullets the sniper shot at him, listening intently to the details she was telling. “I bet you didn’t know, but they wouldn’t let anyone see the disputes or any rebellious actions. So, tell me hero… What’s the good in restoring this illusion? Because nothing is more transparent than this reality!”
Lady Nagant fired another shot, and this time Izuku had all of the information he needed on her location. “Over there!” “Fifth! Pinpoint Strengthening!” The Ninth wielder fired a condensed tendril at Lady Nagant, forcing her to narrowly dodge it. “He predicted where I’d move based on the trajectory of that shot!”
The tendril stuck to the building behind the fallen hero, pulling Izuku towards her at high speeds. “The fact that you, deep down still worked for the commission because you wanted to save people, and all of the things going on in this day and age showing what happens when good people are forced into hard circumstances… Shows that there is more than black and white in this world. The entire world is gray. Distrust and frustration are everywhere.
“But I’ve slowly come to understand, that that is all the more reason we must reach out to them.”
Lady Nagant grit her teeth, grunting in dissatisfaction, as she aimed her arm at a building in the distance. “In that case, let’s see just how much you can process!” When he looked to where she was aiming, Izuku saw a familiar figure yelling something illegible with terror in his eyes. “Chisaki!”
With a manic look, Nagant forced her arm to bulge up, her arm gaining more mass, and seemingly more power. “Maybe you’ll understand little hero, when you see someone get killed because of your own mistake!” At that moment, a single bullet was fired.
Izuku, using the centrifugal force he built while swinging, along with the energy he had stored with Fa Jin, blasted toward the fired shot with speeds unseeable to the human eye. “Everyone has seen it, the footage that most would find unbelievable. Because of whom did it, however, and the fact it was recorded, it lives vividly inside of everyone’s mind. By using all of the centrifugal force I built up while swinging, along with the extra stores of Fa Jin I saved-! Using only 45% of One for All, I can match All Might’s 100%!” Every person alive knows that there is only one man known to be able to out speed a bullet shot out of a high caliber sniper bullet that can match the speed of light, but now, although only known to two others, there is another who has accomplished this.
“One for All Faux 100%!” “Impossible! He caught up to the bullets speed!? This kid… He didn’t hesitate once. He chose to save Chisaki despite knowing he’s an enemy.”
Izuku used his current momentum after saving the armless man, using Black Whip and the leftover stores of Fa Jin to move toward Lady Nagant so fast he created afterimages. “Faux 100%... Manchester Smash!” When his outstretched leg impacted, it looked as if nothing had happened due to Nagant dodging out of the way, however as soon as she was out of Izuku’s perceived path the barrel of her gun bent and twisted in different directions. “Yes! I broke the barrel!”
“Since when… were kids this strong?” As she fell from the sky, accepting her fate to die, she was surprised when her bloodied arm was firmly grasped. “Lady Nagant! You still have… A hero’s heart!” Her eyes widened, as she looked into the green-haired hero’s own. “The trajectory was off when you shot at Chisaki. You know the darkness of people all too well, so why don’t you join us and fight… To see the light in others as well!?”
Kaina Tsutsumi let the words of the boy holding her up sink into every crevice of her mind, and permeate her very essence “This mission was lost before it even began. Is there truly nothing that can stop you… from saving others?” The woman let a smile, a real genuine smile, overtake her features.
“You really are…” Was the last thing Izuku heard… before his vision turned white.
Rice was… conflicted. She was able to overhear the conversation the boy villain had with Lady Nagant, but she didn’t know how to feel.
On one hand, her target was the reason why Japan, and presumably the rest of the world, was in tatters and abandoned by its people. But on the other, gentler, hand… He didn’t seem evil, let alone like a villain.
Rice shook her head in a vain attempt to dismiss her thoughts, but they always stayed at the forefront of her mind.
Instead of running back to her home, she just walked. She took her time to analyze and take in the city that was once bustling with life. She passed by old shops she remembered when she was younger, and thought of every memory she had of them.
As she turned sown one unforgettable street, the one where everything started for her, Rice stopped and stood in the middle of it.
Rice Shower, a student at the local Junior High School, was walking to her home, but stopped when she heard familiar voices. Thinking quickly, Rice ducked into an alleyway to hide away from the approaching voices.
“Please, you can’t seriously believe that Mr. Yamada has a secret daughter, right?” A tired sounding voice questioned in disbelief. “W-well… yeah. B-but it’s not like you’re any better, talking with that mutant every day!”
Though no one's name in particular was said, Rice could feel the slight being directed at her. “Come on, Yuki, you know I only hang out with that wannabe hero because she’s too stupid to understand that nobody likes her.” The tired voice defended sharply, the venom dripping from their tone enough to make Rice’s throat tighten in sadness.
The girl spent most of her life knowing that she was mocked for her dream of being a hero, even with her mediocre quirk, but she could never give up on that dream… It was the only one she had left after all.
“Speaking of that, why the hell do you think she wants to be a hero in the first place? I mean, compared to even that invisible chick, she’s literally useless. Isn’t her shitty mutation supposed to make her into a horse? Like, horses are strong, but Rice would just keel over and die if someone looked at her the wrong way.”
Said girl attempted to leave, or do anything but her feet locked her there in a cruel act of interest.
“Yeah, I feel the same, but even the thought of her becoming a hero would probably do her in.” The voices of her two schoolmates blended together, preventing her from placing who said what.
This already made the esteem of the horse tailed girl plumet to the core of the earth, making her let out choked sobs while big globs of tears dripped down her features agonizingly slowly. What was said next, however, burned even the ashes of her destroyed confidence away.
“Ha! Honestly who does she think she is? She’s not a hero, not even close, Rice is more of a Heel!”
Heel.
That’s all they thought of her as, a heel that others better than her could ignore.
All she was, and would ever amount to…
Would be an insignificant HEEL…
The tremors in her hand forced Rice out of the horrid memory, reminding herself that none of that would ever be true… She is not a heel; she would be and is a hero!Were the lies she kept telling herself doing anything? Was she not proving them right by doing exactly what they said she would?The feeling in her chest, the anger, returned and overtook every other rational thought.
Rice moved in a direction, one she did not know, and walked with a dangerous look in her eyes. She tried to force her way back into her mind, but nothing would stop her from here on out. The girl was left hopeless, unable to act of her own will and instead forced to watch as her body moved with slow, strained steps toward the only thing in the city to attack.
Despite how powerful Rice knew he was, she prayed that someone could stop her. “I… Please, someone help me…”
Izuku was swinging towards the location of another Tartarus escapee, still trying to wrap the events that happened hours earlier.
The teen felt bad about the words he said to his Idol and mentor, All Might, but he knew that if he didn’t hurry and find All For One soon, then more people would get hurt by his actions.
Reaching his destination, Izuku released Black Whip and fell to the ground with the aid of Float. He looked around the area he landed in, recognizing the landmark. In the middle of the open zone, was a massive memorial to All Might though, it was desecrated with graffiti and signs hanging off of its protrusions.
Izuku walked towards the statue and stared for a moment, memories of the time before all of the secrets, before One for All and before everything was so complicated. He remembered a quote from a book he read, the words resonating with his soul. “At times when you want to go back, to a time before… Just remember that only you can shape your future.”
When he first read it, a few years ago at least, Izuku thought nothing of it, glossing over the books words as though they were the same as others. And while they might just be words, the meaning behind them had finally clicked at that moment.
Before he had more time to ponder that, however, he was forced to dodge a punch aimed at his nape. Quickly moving his body to the left, he spun on his right leg and kicked out with his left. At the moment of impact, he upped the percentage of OFA in his foot from the reactionary 5% he was at, to 15%.
The hit struck true, the air pressure from his movement blasting the attacker back with a grunt. Izuku turned around to face his attacker, He saw the same girl who attacked him a few days before. Although it was the same person, something about her, namely the blue flames surrounding her only visible eye, made her much more menacing.
Still exhausted from working non-stop for the past few days, Izuku was almost at the limit of his endurance, but he knew he needed to hold out. “I need to finish this fight quick, or else I’ll never be good enough to finish off All For One…” He took a deep breath through his respirator and bolted forward, tapping his foot on the ground with every step to build up Fa Jin.
When Izuku reached his surprisingly stationary target, he readied his fist for a punch, only to abandon the action and skid underneath the high kick fixed at his chin. Flipping forward off the ground, Izuku braced his arm to block the straight punch that rocketed towards his liver.
“I… I’m not a…” The girl mumbled, as she relentlessly threw attack after attack no matter how reckless. Spotting an opening in her assault, Izuku swept her feet off the ground and made some distance with a point blank- “Delaware Smash!”
He stared down his opponent as she shakily stood from the blow, and noticed that something about her was off. Rice stomped the ground under her feet and let out an inhuman roar that shook the air surrounding her.
“I… I’m not a heel!” With a yell she crossed the distance between herself and the villain in an instant and hit his forearm with a powerful dropkick. The attack splintered the concrete underfoot in every direction, causing the green-haired teens footing to slip, forcing him to disengage backwards.
Rice’s body tried to move forward, but suddenly dropped to the ground, signaling extreme exhaustion. All of the anger the girl had built up released in an instant, causing the air to leave her lungs. She laid on the ground and let out strained sobs while her lungs tried to greedily suck in any available air.
Izuku watched the girl who had attacked him not 10 seconds ago slump to the ground in slight shock, but he had to worry more about himself as his own exhaustion caused him to fall to his knees.
Behind him, the hero heard the sound of clapping approaching along with haughty laughs. “My, my! This went even better than expected! I must thank you dear Rice Shower, if not for All For One’s insistence I would have left you for dead!” The man laughed in amusement as he stared down the girl, Rice Shower, before turning his attention towards Izuku.
“And you, Deku… You naive boy, walking around like you’re contributing to society in any capacity. I almost pity you, fashioned by the false belief that becoming a hero would do anything to counteract the fact that all of you are just a plague.
“Everything you’ve done so far, even your current exhaustion was all a part of All For One’s plan. It was your recklessness and heroic nature that will lead you to your death today, you and that useless girl behind you.” The man paraded around the two teens as he spoke, the smug smirk never leaving his face.
“You both will die today, though, not by my hand. You will die as the people you decided to protect tear your bodies apart limb from limb.” At that moment, a crowd of civilians flooded the plaza, sweeping up the two teens before pushing them back-to-back.
Hearing the labored breathing of Rice, Izuku attempted to move his body, but found himself unable to do anything due to the combination of exhaustion and civilians holding him down. The people all around them wailed in terror as they harmed the two, screaming about how they didn’t want to do this. The green hero quickly figured out that they were being controlled, realizing now that the man doing this was a villain that goes by the name ‘Dictator’ and his quirk, ‘Despot’, allowed him to control others to do his bidding.
Realizing that there was nothing he could do that wouldn’t cause harm to innocent people, Izuku decided to give up fighting back, using the last remnants of his strength to shield the girl pushed against him.
The Dictator, who is laughing maniacally as his two targets give in to their fatigue, continues to taunt them. He was getting ready to speak once more, but was cut off by the sound of explosions approaching. Looking towards the air, he had no time to react as a glob of exploding nitroglycerin wrapped around his face and blew up in a shower of sparks.
In the final moments of consciousness, Rice watched the glowing eyes of the boy she called a villain stare with defiance while protecting her.
To Be Continued…?
