"Gotta give it to you, though. That was pretty epic, especially with everyone talking shit about you and all." Hitoshi says as he, Killua, and Mei sit beside each other amidst the audiences, in the general education department's area. Some of the GenEd students congratulated Killua and reassured him about the whole quirkless situation. It's really nice how the GenEd students are so supportive. They even told Killua about how they should have more faith in themselves like Killua did and all before leaving him alone with his two friends. 

"Uh, thanks, I guess," Killua hummed before Mei all but sparkled. "I'm like, so glad you used the Transcended Holster Two Thousand! Do you need any more new babies? I'll whip them up right away!". "Nah, I think I'm good for now. I'll use that yoyo you made for my next fight, probably," Killua said as he and Hitoshi laughed a little at their friend's typical antics. 

"Aww, okay.. Oh! Next fight will be Hitoshi against... Iida, right?" the pink haired girl asked. "Yeah, after Bakugo and Uraraka's fight," Killua nodded before continuing, "I'll be back in a bit, tell me who won later." the pale haired boy says, standing up and turning to the tunnels leading inside, leaving the match between Yaoyorozu and Tokoyami. 

Why did he up and leave?, some may ask. Well, it would take much more than anyone in this world to catch up on that. Or maybe not, given Killua himself hasn't seen every living human in this world, but the metaphor still stands. 

The truth is, Killua remembered the conversation he overheard the guy in the trench coat say to the cat-man. If he recalls correctly, Killua's sure it's about some villian infiltrating the crowds or something when his subconscious senses went tingling. It wasn't bloodlust, and Killua isn't a mind reader. Rather, it was more of gut instincts. Walking down the hall, Killua stopped in his tracks when he heard large footsteps and a yell. "SHOTO!" 

Killua knew he shouldn't be prying into his half-and-half classmate's home life, but Killua couldn't tell why he got such a bad feeling about this. Killua isn't that ignorant; he watches the news in Aizawa's house every day after helping Hitohsi train for the sports festival, he knows of the number 2 hero 'Endeavor' and the fact that he's classmates with his son, Shoto Todoroki. However, Killua also notices how Endeavor is such a brute, that much is obvious in the pale haired boy's eyes. After all, it resembled his father in a way, though not quite. 

Hiding behind one of the pillars around the corner, Killua decides to listen in to the conversation. After all, it's not that Killua's nosy or anything, it's just that he has an itching bad feeling when it comes to the number 2 hero. It's not like he'll get caught, anyway.

Instead of an answer like Killua would imagine, the dual tone haired teen opted to continue walking down the hall. Thinking the conversation wasn't gonna continue, Killua was about to walk away when the voices continued to ring down the empty hall. "Shoto. I expect you to be first place here," the man says, putting a hand on his son's shoulder, in turn stopping him from moving. "And I expect you to drop this childish act and use your left side as well".

Oh. So that's it, Killua thinks to himself, Shoto must think his left side is from his dad and he's got daddy issues is all. Guess my assumption about Endeavor was true after all. Well, that makes a lot of sense. Killua shuts his thoughts away as his dual tone haired classmate speaks up. "I will never use your side. I will win this festival with my right side. Mom's side," he spits out, venom lacing his words. 

The pale haired boy mused to himself. Well, he got the information he wanted to confirm. What's the point in staying? Continuing his original action to walk away. However, this was yet again interrupted by the flame hero who spoke up once again, "You will get rid of this childish rebellion. You will bring honor to the reason I made you."

"Hey, grab it! Hurry, before they catch us!"

"I'm on it, I'm on it! Give me a hand here, at least!"

"Oh? Get what, now?"

The two villains froze at the foreign voice of the pale haired boy. Slowly turning their heads to face the boy who they couldn't sense the presence of, one of them, a brawny guy with wierd looking hair cracked his knuckles and chuckled, "Well, well. If it isn't an uninvited guest! Listen kid, UA and all, we'll still have to get rid of you."

Killua snorted back, "Heh. Uninvited? Shouldn't you say that for yourself, old man? Anyway, you didn't answer my question. What're you doing?" he asked once more, not giving a damn to the other guy who's hand was literally clutching a piece of paper in a death grip, not paying mind to the poor student list crumbling in his hands. 

"That doesn't matter. You're done for, kid!" the brawny guy lunged at Killua, who stepped aside to dodge the guy, doing his heaven's arena signature neck smack, knowcking the lights out of the guy. On the other hand, the other guy with a death grip on the student list was shaking, his skinny figure frozen in shock with wide eyes, staring at his comrade. 

".. Yeah, you're gonna have to go, too." Killua says as he does the same to the poor guy, grabbing some nearby rope to tie them both up. 

___________________________

To say Tsukauchi was shocked is an absolute understatement. What is someone supposed to do when the whole police force is quietly searching the whole building for two villains, only for a student to come waltzing to him with two full grown men slung over his shoulders like sacks of potatoes, saying, "Yo, you're the officer guy, right? Here's the two villains that got through security. They were in the resource room. This one had a student list in a death grip when I came in," while gesturing to the skinnier figure. 

All he could do was talk in the radio communication to tell them the villains have been apprehended.

"So what'd I miss?" the pale haired boy asks as he walks back to his two friends in the GenEd area in the crowd of audiences. "You took a long time," Mei hums, and Hitoshi nods in agreement. "Tokoyami won, Kirishima and Tetsutetsu had a tie, and by the looks of it, Bakugou's winning against Uraraka," the purple haired teen replied. KIllua nodded at his GenEd friend, thanking him silently for the info. "Well, one thing led to another," the pale haired teen answered cryptically, though no one questioned it. 

The fight goes on, including the dramatic change of events when Uraraka decided to make full on rock and debris rain, which surprised everyone, Killua included. Sadly, Bakugou got the win, but everyone was still congratulating Uraraka on how much of a fight she put up. Killua made a mental note to congratulate her later, too. 

"I'm against Iida next, aren't I?" Hitoshi asks no one in particular, though he earned his answer from the nods Mei and Killua were giving him. "Yeah, then I'm against Todoroki right after. Good luck, Hito," Killua says from where he's sitting between Mei and Hitoshi, flashing a small smile. 

"Iida? Oh, he's the one who helped me promote my babies, wasn't he?"

".. I guess we could count that as helping, maybe."

_____________________________

The hallways were empty as Hitoshi walked through them, looking for the waiting room he was assigned to beforehand. The purple haired teen wanted to kill some time thinking about methods he'd use in order to win before his turn for battle after the short break they're getting. 

However, his plan was shattered when he heard hushed voices from the other end of the corridor. The hallways were empty, so even the hushed voices echoed a bit throughout the place. Deciding he was feeling nosy as the hushed whispers were that of disbelief and franticness, Hitoshi neared the corridor wall and peeked at the source of noise. 

It was a guy in a trench coat and police officers. Wait no, Hitoshi recognizes the guy in the tranch coat. Oh, that's Tsukauchi Naomasa, one of the top detectives in Musutafu. Not like detectives are very important to society with villains and all, but let's just say Hitoshi's seen him before when he was looking up jobs that didn't need much use of quirks as people always told him his quirk was villain-like. Not that his parents ever agreed with those people, though.

"What do you mean some kid got the villains before us? The police force have been searching the place since before the 1v1 battles even began!"

"Look, I don't know! Some short kid with white hair came up to me with these two guys slumped over his shoulder and told me these are the villains, told me the details, and just left! I'm not hallucinating, I swear!"

"A kid? maybe he has a strength quirk? after all this guy here looks about as heavy as a truck," another officer replied, looking over to one of the two people tied by rope on the ground by the police officers. 

"Wait, did he have blue eyes?" another police officer asked. He was quite tall and had cat-like features on his head. This question made Hitoshi's mind flash with recognition. White hair, quite short, blue eyes. That totally described his pale haired friend, didn't it?

"Yeah, he did! He's a student here, he was using the uniform."

Silence fell upon them.

"What? Why are you guys so quiet?" Tsukauchi asked, looking rather confused. "Um, Tsukauchi, did you see the tournaments?" the cat headed police officer asked slowly, earning a raised brow from the detective. "What? no! Were you guys seriously watching the tournaments when there was a villain on the loose? No wonder we didn't find them!"

"No, no! We weren't! But we just had to see what happened when all that commotion came up!" another officer interjected. "Oh? There was a commotion? I suppose I was indoors when it happened. What's up?" the detective asked once again, looking quite uneasy about this whole situation. 

"That's Killua. He's a first year hero course student," a different officer opted to answer Tsukauchi's question. But it seems that statement made Tsukauchi all the more confused instead. "Oh, so he's a hero student. So why are you all acting so weird?" the detective furrowed his brows at the police officers who still seemed to be processing everything. 

"He's quirkless."

"..huh?" Tsukauchi asked once again, even more confused. "But how could a student, hero couse or not, stop two villains who were clearly strong and stealthy enough to evade our forces? And he's quirkless?" he asked no one in particular, rather voicing his thoughts aloud.
