And thus he attacked the soldiers. But problem was, he was outnumbered against trained soldiers and not careless thugs. Sure he knew some martial art mixed with street fighting skills that he picked up on the street. But these people knew what they were doing. Coupling with G being hesistant to use his Quirk, plus one of the soldiers hitting a previous wound that did not fully heal. "Not as tough as you thought, are ya, punk?" "Cocky shit!" "Let’s teach this guy a lesson about messing the corps!" Their trash talk just made him angrier and made him want to use his Quirk on them. To rip them to shreds "I'll turn you into a corpse" he thought to himself as he tried to defend their attack and use his Quirk
But before he activated it and summoned his Spirit Animal, a female voice interrupted him "Leave him... ALONE!" and as if she was possessed she flung herself infront of him with her Quirk fully activated and slugged the one that called him a 'punk' in the face. G took a moment to put a hand over his rib as it was still hurting from this sudden punch. It wasnt fully healed since the last time. And this attack literally old opened wounds. "I hope I aint bleedin" he thought to himself But before he got the time to process what was going on. The Bunny Princess told him that they should get out of here. Wrapped her arms around him, told him to hold tight and dashed away with him "Why... why again? Arent you UA? You shouldn't have used your Quirk on them" G thought to himself, worried about her future. He was the one who was supposed to fight "I hope this doesnt become a trend, where women save me. Sheesh. I need to do something manly or else I'll lose all my masculinity" he thought to himself as this was the 2nd time a girl saved him. He didnt like the idea of being weak. He wasnt a damsel in distress, he was a dumbass in distress. It was a bit humiliating. Letting a student risk their future for a failiure like him

Akane Satsuki "Normal service has been resumed~" Crimson Hare “Haaa… Haaaaa…” The long white ears she possessed whilst using her quirk receding as her flesh lost its white layer of downy fur and turned to a pinkish tone, Miss Satsuki wheezed desperately to get air into her lungs that felt like they were burning as her legs throbbed with discomfort, having gone all out for as long as she could. Riding that high of adrenaline that the fight or flight reaction had sent surging through her system to the degree that she had barely registered anything in her body until finally it gave out, the gasping girl with green eyes noticed the short term fatigue she had built up and a slight feeling of cramping, but also something that stood out even more than that.
G’s head… On my breast. Feeling an oddly uncomfortable object jabbing into the side of one of her soft, sports bra compacted mound as her condition fully registered to her and looking down to see what the source of it was, to a bewildered and blinking response the girl realized that the way she had hooked the torso of the man in her rescue and held so tightly to make sure he kept up meant that right now the face of her friend was planted squarely in her delicate teenage bust. Sufficed to say, this did not lead to a calm reaction.
“EHHHHHHHHHHHH?!?!?!?!!” The mouth Akane widening as her eyes bulged as she saw the way she was smothering the man with her chest, a scream of pure mortification exploded from her mouth with a volume the girl almost never showed, echoing through the tunnels they had entered and only abating because of the breathlessness she felt. “I-I-I-I-I’m s-s-so s-s-sorry!” Horribly embarrassed by the turn of events and knowing it was her own fault, even though the encroachment to those heavenly hills was something that created deep discomfort both physically and psychologically, the redhead knew that it hadn’t been the intention of the man and reasoned it as her own mistake.
“I didn’t, it was!” The arms she was holding him with slackening and the now scarlet-faced student hopping backward and bouncing off a wall behind her, she pulled her hands up to cover her face and then sank down into a crouching position, practically curling up into a ball and wishing she could disappear entirely right now. What must he think of me? Pushing his face into my chest like some kind of… What did mother call them? ‘Two dollar harlot’? Thoroughly ashamed by what she had done and feeling dirtier by the moment for the deed, Miss Satsuki began to quake as she rested her rear and lower back against the wall for support and absolutely could not move any part of herself even an inch.
Am I some kind of deviant? Eying Chise and Yumi those times and now grabbing a man and shoving his head into my… What’s wrong with me?! Frozen in place by the horror she felt at the deed she had committed, the redhead tucked her head deep into her hands and arms as if she could hide from the man in her company if she just curled up tightly enough, mentally reviewing the incident and how it added to a worrying trend she saw emerging. Running around like some sort of beast, maybe I should be locked up? Really this wholly an accident and her response quite the overreaction, in regard to the others a reasonable and understanding soul would write them off as the curiosity of a teen who was trying to find her sexual identity with little premeditated perversion behind them, but Akane was always her own worst critic and somehow had developed an internal system to ensure she would constantly chip away at her own self confidence. Probably because no one had ever told her that the urges she felt on occasion were normal, even for a girl.
Shameful, Akane! Utterly and unforgivingly shameful! Perhaps another part of the problem of inner turmoil coming from her mother, when Miss Satsuki felt bad about something she had done it was like a seed that had been planted by Ms Kiku Koizumi sprouted and was eager to repeat any rebuke she had ever been given. Telling her that she was terrible and needed to do better constantly, it was why the girl struggled with confidence so much because really it felt like never in her life had she ever felt good enough for anyone…

Sure, he was annoyed and very upset that he was being rescued by a female for a 2nd time. But when he actually snapped out of that and realized the position he was in. He was in pure bliss. Sure, his face was shoved and he couldnt breathe, but dammit this was bliss "Best way to die. 10/10. Smothered by boobs" he thought to himself
But when it seemed they stopped, G tried to back away to gasp for air, but it seems that Akane also realized what she was doing as she screamed and quickly backed away. While she was saying how sorry she was. He just stared into nothing really as his face was as red as her hair. And he touched his cheek, his nose, his lips, basically.... his face and the areas that touched her assets. He was just in pure disbelief and just as red as her hair.
He heard Akane try to stammer and apology or something. He tried to speak to reassure her that all was well. But everytime he tried to speak, he'd stop himself because he knew that he'd blurt out something lewd or inappropriate or just crack a joke. He had a hard time trying to calm her becuase no proper words would come to him
G saw she pulled her hands up to cover her face and then sank down into a crouching position, practically curling up into a ball. She looked so frightened and stressed now that he saw how she felt. Seemingly calming down and seeing her distress, he walked over to her and sat beside her. He put his hand around her shoulder and tried to speak "H-Hey. Dont worry about it. Ok? Im n-not upset if you're worried about that" he said as with one hand he put his hand around her shoulders, but with the other he held his wound. He used this moment to try to speak with her and rest up. She seemed tired and he was in pain. It seemed now was the best time to just talk things out and calm down

Akane Satsuki "Just when you thought things can't get any worse..." Crimson Hare He’s so warm… And safe… Hiding her face from G but flooded with a sense of security as he told her not to worry about the mishap and snaked a hand around her back and shoulders, perhaps because all she wanted to do was disappear the girl felt incredibly tempted to exploit such a gesture in her own way, and ended up giving in to that desire. This is OK? Just for a few seconds, I’m not being a pain, hopefully…? Perhaps coming from a mix of a need for comfort and because her body was feeling the ‘burn’ somewhat from her bout of intense activity, Miss Satsuki slumped toward the man instinctively and balled up his shit in her hands as she hid her face in his neck and shoulder, feeling how much hotter her cheeks were than the body of her friend was. “D-Do you e-ever…” Perhaps her action a little inappropriate given how they barely knew each other at all, for one reason or another there was something that put Akane at ease around this man, and as she basked in the gentle affection that she was shown the girl came close to breaking down. “N-No, never mind. T-There are more important t-thing right now. L-Like, where we are?” Looking toward G with a desperate dizziness in her eyes before the urge ebbed away, for a moment or two the bunny girl had felt tempted to share with him the feelings she had been keeping locked away for so long about her own shortcomings, but retreated away from such an idea. “Heh heh, suppose we’re gonna be doing the maze rather than the water course, a-at least for now?” Realizing how silly it would have made her seem and moreover finding that she was scared that this impressive figure might tell her she was right to feel small and lesser compared to others, she gently slipped out of the grasp of the man and slid back up the wall to a standing position. Attempting to seem tough and peppy in the face of the unfortunate circumstances they found themselves in, partly in an attempt to brush away the way she had nearly broken before, the bunny elected to focus on the problem around them rather than her feelings right now. That was probably the heroic course of action, wasn’t it? “H-Hopefully they w-won’t be able t-to find us in here?” The surroundings dim, lit by lighting that seemed to intentionally be set to limit the range with which one could see, Miss Satsuki moved from one side to the other of the walled walkway they found themselves in and fiddled with her hands as she narrowed her eyes and tried to see if she could hear footsteps or any signs of the soldiers coming close to their position. “I-I have no idea how to get out, but h-hopefully that means they will a-also struggle to follow us?” The path she had taken random and reactive and in all honesty in such a determined rush that the girl did not know how deep into this twisting mess of walkways they had plunged into, the green eyed girl hoped that even if the soldiers had gone after them, the head start and winding paths might detain them. Unfortunately, there was one thing she hadn’t factored into her assessment, and that was the fact that the men were in charge of the situation that she found herself in. UURRRRRUMRUMRUMRUMRUUHHHHH!!!! All of a sudden the sound of something moving, something grinding filling the air and then the floor vibrating violently, with a yelp the redhead found herself stumbling from one side to another as it felt like they were caught in a sudden quake. “KYAH!” Letting out a mix of a gasp and a groan as the violence in the ground was enough to make the still tired legs of the teen give out because of the swaying that her body was sent into by the subterranean motions, Akane winced a little as she landed backward and used her rump to absorb the fall, but had little time to focus on the discomfort this caused her as the space around her morphed. What’s going on? The walls are shifting? Looking around herself and seeing the surface against which she had been leaning against briefly seeming to disappear into the floor as the path either side was overcome with the rising presence of fresh barricades, as the floor continued to groan and rock beneath her behind the green eyed girl guessed that the noise and movement she felt was some sort of action that was designed to shift the maze into new configurations. Are they trying to trap us in here? The brow of the bunny tightening as she guessed that rather than being chased down the soldiers had elected to simply take their revenge by trapping them in this labyrinth as a form of punishment for their misdeed, while Miss Satsuki had been feeling rather disorientated before this new situation only made her directional difficulties intensify even further. Why did I run in here? It’s like playing right into their hands, isn’t it? I’m so stupid. No longer sure which direction might lead them away from the entrance and which might lead to the exit, the schoolgirl looked from one side to the other in confusion and then came upon an even worse realization. Always so stupid. In the mind of this troubled and trapped teen, this was all her fault.

She slumped toward him and balled up his shit in her hands as she hid her face in his neck and shoulder. Feeling that he just gave her a pat on a rub on the back to try and cheer her up or something "There there, it'll all be ok. Lets just rest up, yeah?" he said as he tried to calm her down and reassure her that things would be fine
She wanted to ask him something then, but she changed her mind and wasnt close to him anymore .... Great....And by great its bad. Now he was curious about it and couldnt stop thinking about the question. Does he ever what? Akane switched to talking about the maze. Which reminded him that he was still hurting...
G sighed when he heard that they wont be doing water stuff, but maze stuff "I question my sense of direction. I dont feel confident in it" G thought to himself Akane stood up, she moved from one side to another, probably trying to figure out what to do. She said she had no idea how to get out up hoped the soldiers would have a hard time finding them "I think tha-" before he could finish a noise was heard
UURRRRRUMRUMRUMRUMRUUHHHHH!!!!
Akane who was on her feet fell down and landed on her petite posterior. Meanwhile G was already sitting down on the ground so he was mostly safe. After the floor vibrations subsided, he finished his previous thoughts ".... t they have a way to control this area" They had to have a system to monitor the maze and maybe even control it. G seeing how troubled she looked just got up and walked up to her. He extended his hand to help her up even tho he was still hurting from that one punch to his 'weak spot'. "You and I seriously need to talk now. I can see you're troubled about something. Speak freely. Let it out. Because if you hold that in. It will just cloud your mind and who knows what bad decisions could happen. We have to try and take a course of action with our clear minds. So please, just finish your question and tell me everything. Whats bugging you?" He was curious about that question, but he also saw that she had a troubled look on her face and whatever it was, it was eating her up. If she were to go around in a maze like this who knows what could happen. Maybe moving walls werent the only threat. What if they were traps. Before they moved. She needed to let it all out

Akane Satsuki "How can you get stronger when all you see is your own weakness?" Crimson Hare “D-Do you… Ever feel like… N-No matter how h-hard you try, you still do e-everything wrong?” Left on the floor and having neither the strength nor will to reach out for G’s hand and stand up, all that Akane could do was look up toward the man in the tunnel with her, looking rather teary eyed as all of a sudden feelings that she usually kept bottled up spilled forward uncontrollably. “T-that… You just end up making mistakes, e-even though you try r-really hard to be good? To be… S-Someone that matters…?” Tears flowing down her cheeks as shepleaded with a person who was a practical stranger, a person whom she had pulled into the maze and caused so much trouble for, as she did so secrets that the student had kept locked up for years tumbled from her lips like the tears as she trembled in the darkness, confessing feelings that her experience at UA had silently worsened.
Am I just kidding myself with this hero thing? Everyone else seems to just handle things so much better… Trying her very best to perform well in classes despite the fact that she had gotten off to a mediocre start at best, even with every stride she took forward those distant souls that surrounded her only seemed to move further away. Usually the type who tended to avoid the spotlight but in her own small way resenting the fact that the more bombastic members of the student body seemed to overshadow her, in some ways Miss Satsuki thought she might actually be doing everything wrong. Maybe she should just do what she wants when she wants? Those who seemed to behave more selfishly also seemed to perform more successfully. Sometimes that was very disheartening.
“S-Sorry, I guess a cool guy like you has b-better things to do than l-listen to the worries of a schoolgirl, haven’t you?” Lingering there and feeling the full weight of her self-loathing and the jealously that she usually kept hidden holding her in place, after a few seconds of sobbing because of her honesty, it suddenly dawned on Akane that she was speaking in a rather heartfelt fashion to someone she barely knew and had told him things she hadn’t shared with anyone else in her life. Even with this, I’m just letting him down aren’t I? I bet a pro like him is really disappointed to see a hopeless UA student like me… Panicking a bit because of this and rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand to try and wipe away the tears, the redhead felt an urge to guard herself suddenly and attempted to retreat, both in physical and figurative terms.
“I-I’m just being silly…” Shuffling backward on her tiptoes and fingers in a sort of reverse crawl before hugging her knees, the teenager slumped back onto her rear and stared at the ground in front of her, feeling rather dejected all of a sudden. “I-I’m sorry I g-got you into this mess…” Slumping forward and letting her head hang limply over the knees she had pulled up in front of her, Miss Satsuki let out a low and long sigh before cuddling her thighs even tighter, firmly rooted to the ground and in need of something to get her moving…

She finished her question. And it was a relatable one. Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you still do everything wrong? That you just end up making mistakes, even though you try really hard to be good? To be someone that matters. God. Every. Fucking. Day.
Before she gave him a chance to answer she started apologizing for no reason and chalked it up to being silly. He sighed and crouched so he can be eye to eye level with her, even though she looked down at the ground. "Always. Every day. Every moment. No matter how hard I try to do something good, I always do something wrong and mess up. I mean, come on. You were the one who saved me. I wanted to stop those people from harassing you and I couldnt do that. And thats just one example" he said as he wiped the remaining tears off her with his thumb
"Listen. I know this isnt the time or the place to tell you this. But at the same time it is. So, I kind of have to give you the cliffnotes version. What you're feeling is normal. Being a Hero is not an easy choice. True Heroes always have this feeling like they messed up, did something wrong, couldnt save everyone, have various fears and doubts, think they're doing something wrong since they're not in the spotlight. A lotta things. What you're going through is a school every Hero goes through. And that's not UA. Its the school of life. Real Heroes go through this. And if people tell you they dont, then they either; lie, do not give you the full picture or they're not a true hero, but a fake one. Real Heroes are the unsung ones, who every day risk their lives to save people and live with a huge weight on their shoulders. The same weight you have. That feeling like you're messing up and doing wrong. Thats just one of the things heroes carry. Real Heroes always try to be strong and smile to the public, to reassure them that all will be well even though they know a dozen things could get messed up. Those Pro Hero loudmouths you see on the TV? They're pampered fakers who dunno what they're talking about. They're a pretty face who only wants cash. You are a Hero in making. Hell, you're already better then me. So dont worry. We can talk about this in more detail when we're outta here so. Now.... " He grabs her, hugs her and puts her face in his chest and mirrored what she did to him
"Shut up and take comfort in my masculine arms" he said completely jokingly and he hugged her for a moment or two while putting her face in his chest as a form of 'vengence'. After that he let her go and got up and once again offered his hand to help her up "So. How 'bout it? You ready to get outta here?"
He tried to give her a short speech, a short version that those fears she has are normal. He tried to elaborate it correctly and shortly. After all. He was a fuckup himself. There wasnt a single day that passed where he didnt think he was a useless waste of skin. He hoped this what he said would lift her spirits so they could get out of here. And he hoped she was truthful with him with her problems and that his little joking gesture would also help.... Well, when they get out, he could always ask her more. But still, even though he tried to be all motivating. He couldnt help but worry and think that he didnt fuck her up more

Akane Satsuki "Hugs are the best." Crimson Hare I’m sure he’s just saying that… Glancing toward the man who was nearby as he said that he made mistakes all the time, just like she did, for some reason at that moment Akane couldn’t believe that a guy like this was anything like her. G seemed so brave, so loyal and so strong. It felt impossible that a person like that could feel as useless as she did a lot of the time, so the scarlet haired student for a few seconds thought he was just blowing smoke in order to make her feel better. However, he was far from done with his performance.
Unable to think or speak as the tall man seemed to lean forward and brush away what was left of her tears with his thumb, Miss Satsuki froze and felt the way that her cheeks seemed to explode with heat, but that was not all. The gesture so very affectionate and sweet, along with the way that such an act brought him close, all of this combined to inspire an odd feeling of longing in the heart of the schoolgirl. Never treated this way by anyone and the gentle and small act seeming huge and making her heart beat hard and fast, the emerald eyes of the teen grew dizzy and she felt almost as if she wanted to cry even more so that he would do it again, so he would comfort her more. It was a revolutionary feeling for the girl really, and made her more susceptible to the words he said next.
“T-They do?” Blinking in surprise as her resistance to the notions that G was offering waned, partly because of his gesture and also because it made her feel a little bit better about herself, the sincerity with which the man spoke also helped to assure the teen of how genuine he was being and she so badly wanted to believe him. After all he was a hero wasn’t he, so he must know what he was talking about, right?
Loudmouth heroes… That sounds familiar. Looking down toward the ground and feeling that little bit more assurance as a man she respected showed similar degrees of dislike for those who loved to spout off and treat their role like some kind of right, to Akane the position of a hero was never about money or popularity but rather responsibility. The redhead had the skills to help people, maybe, so it was her duty to do so, wasn’t it? That was how she felt and it stung to see others who seemed to not take things seriously, but not half as much as when those same figures seemed to get away with raising hell. However, as the white haired man told her that she had the right approach and they didn’t, it helped the green eyed girl a little.
“N-No, you’re brave and kind… T-There’s no way I’m even close to being as good as you are, Genzu san?” Still not completely won over by everything that she was told however and speaking up to protest against the notion that she was somehow better than the man who was giving her this little pep talk, not only did she know how much it hurt to diminish one’s own confidence but Miss Satsuki also honestly believed that G was a much better person than he apparently did. “I w-was scared, and those men treated me a-awfully… But you s-saved me, and I couldn’t even m-move until you n-needed help. I-I only acted because y-you um, s-showed me how to be brave?” Admitting the fact that in that situation only a few minutes before she had felt like she had been welded into place, it was the example that she had been set by her protector and a desire to emulate him that had motivated the girl to move. Always reluctant to act and seeming to need nudges like this, honestly the girl with the green gaze worried she was too soft and shy to be a hero and in her own way envied the over the top classmates she had for their brazen behaviour and unstoppable willpower.
They’re so strong… And safe. I… Wish he’d hold onto me forever, so I’d always feel this way. Blinking in surprise as she found her form being embraced by her impromptu life coach and almost instantly relaxing because of it, though her innate shyness and sense of politeness made the way she returned the gesture seem a little reluctant, in truth this helped Akane as much if not more than what she had been told. Gently snaking her arms around the back of the big tough figure who had fought in her corner and her grip tightening with time, more out of instinct than design the floored femme twisted her head and offered up an impulsive gesture of her appreciation in the form of a little kiss she placed on the cheek of her protector.
“T-Thank you, G…” An unusual act for Miss Satsuki but one that she remembered giving to her daddy whenever he cheered her up, though doing so made her blush more than ever, the teen didn’t regret the action and even wore a white smile afterward that contrasted the hue of her face. The affection that she felt for the man whom she hugged escalating with every second, privately the bunny was also proud of herself for being brave enough to do such a thing since she usually felt so reticent around others. Here though, in this situation, it just felt right.
“Y-Yes um, w-we should get moving, shouldn’t we?” Nodding at the suggestion of the man that they should continue onward and slipping from his grasp with no small degree of hesitance, Akane let out a long sigh and then stood up, finding that her legs felt quite a bit stronger after that short break which was a nice surprise. “I-I suppose all we can do is keep moving, even if it takes a while to f-find the exit?” Turning her head from one side to the other and then deciding that with no idea of which way they should be heading the only option was through trial and error, without much real thought and really based on random decision the redhead began to walk toward the path to her left, hoping it would be the right one…

It seemed at first that she didnt believe him, that point only being furthere by the fact when she talked how awesome he was, how brave and kind he was. Sure that was stroking his ego. But he knew deep down, that wasnt really the truth. He was a mess of a man. But it seemed that his words didnt cheer her up or motivate her. Of all the things, it was his lighthearted and joking hug. It was something to lighten the mood and for his so called 'vengence' by boob suffocation. Truth be told he didnt expect a hug, let alone a kiss on the cheek. That made him blush a bit "She's so cute~" he thought to himself and considered giving her one as well. But, didnt want to risk it. Not yet. Perhaps after they exit the maze, she could get a lil vicory kiss as a reward
Nevertheless he took the victory, as it seemed to make her feel better. After he helped her up, he had to think of a way outta here. And he had an idea how to do it. Follow the smart girls lead "I was never good for strategies and directions. Im sure she knows how to do it. I'll just motivate her. Lord knows, she needs a lil confidence boost. And if all else fails, we'll just smash our way out" G thought
"Ok Akane! Where do you think we should go? Now now. Dont be shy. Consider this as your chance to show everyone, or in this case just me, that you can be a Hero. Like a mini test, maybe? Dont be scared, ok? I'll assist you if you need help. Ok?" G said
He just wasnt a strategist. He was the brawn and someone else would always be the brains. Toma or Susumu or whoever. But now, he had Akane. He just needed to try and boost her confidence so she could take the leading role

Akane Satsuki "...Are you sure you want to let someone like me lead you?" Crimson Hare He wants me to be in charge? Setting off a moment or two before her buddy so that she led the way really simply by virtue of a simple single second head start, as G told her this was her chance to take control of their path and show everyone and probably herself that she was more competent than she seemed, Miss Satsuki couldn’t help but panic a little at the sudden pressure that was placed squarely upon her shoulders. Reluctant to really dive head first into such a plan, while the redhead had needed to take the lead in an exercise or two back at UA, it seemed a whole different kettle of fish knowing she would be being assessed by a person she thought was a pro.
“A-Are you sure you d-don’t want to take the lead? I’m s-sure with your experience y-you’d be able to find the correct path m-much more easily? More safely…” Perhaps his intention to see if she was up to the task of taking up an internship or maybe even performing as his sidekick, but even with this potential prize at the end of the task Akane couldn’t help but feel unsure of herself, and raised a small questioning protest against the idea. I’ll probably just lead us into further trouble… The spirits of the green eyes girl lifted up a little by the pep talk and hug she had been given but still feeling somewhat responsible for their current circumstances, the nervy teen feared she would only make the problem ten times worse if left in charge, but it appeared G wasn’t going to change his mind. So with a sense of impending doom and a sense of anxiety the reluctant redhead moved on and accepted her responsibility.
They didn’t really teach us how to deal with mazes in school really… Though I suppose really it’s just like any building? Walls, floors and a ceiling, and eventually maybe a door if we keep going? Dreading the path that lay ahead of her but at the same time finding it focused her mind on what they might run into, while she was the furthest thing from an expert on labyrinths, simple logic seemed to dictate that if they wandered for long enough they would find an exit. How long that would take though was anyone’s guess.
I have no idea how big this maze is though, or what else we might find in it? Are those guys going to keep looking for us in here or have they given up? Furthermore, the facilities on display are supposed to test quirk users, so might there be traps and things? Rather quiet as she began to focus her mind fully on the task at hand, despite the fact that she had never done something like this before in any true capacity Miss Satsuki couldn’t help but feel the scenario had a certain sense of familiarity about it when she thought of her studies in UA. I’m not sure how they’d compare to the kinds of obstacles Cian-sensei has set up for us in the past, but it would be foolish to assume they were any less capable of this than him… Not exactly challenged by this same situation but the circumstances feeling oddly familiar to those rescue classes she had done, the tasks alongside Naoru and Arlynne seemed to have offered an unexpected sense of preparation and because of this the pace of the girl slowed a little to something a little more cautious.
“Genzu-san… I-If what the soldiers have set up is anything like w-what we face at school, we should prepare ourselves for the possibility of um, traps?” The brow of the beauty tightening a little and her words carrying a slightly more serious tone as she turned her head to explain to her mentor for the day why she had eased her pace and began to move with softer steps just in case she tripped something, Akane demonstrated a side to her character that had been built by her training in heroics and rescue. Favouring these scenarios over straight battle training because not only did it feel more useful to develop a wide skillset but also because of her innate desire to avoid conflict, the emerald eyed lass had garnered a little experience that seemed valuable in this circumstance.
“This event is designed to test quirk users, and a-after seeing the way the w-walls shifted, I-I think it’s best to assume there w-will be more ‘surprises’ waiting f-for us?” Nodding at the assertion she had made and feeling as if it was important to keep her companion informed of her thought processes, while Miss Satsuki was also looking a little for confirmation of her theory from the older and more experienced man she also felt a slight desire to impress him. Not really because he might be a professional who’s acquaintance might prove useful to her, but more because she had taken quite a shine to ol’ Genzu-san today…

Obviously, the cutie had doubs about herself once again. Reasonable enough. She thought that he'd be better because he's older and thus 'more experienced'. Just to give her a sense of security, he held her hand and smiled to her, in a way to show her that he believes in her. If he has to, he'll get out of here holding hands with the cute girl. And then he realized what he was thinking "Wait... c-cute girl? I shouldnt... But should I?.... Looking at her now, she does seem like my ideal type. Everything fits, the shyness, the hero aspect, the age, the appearance. Everything. But still... though. I shouldnt really try anything, right? It'd be wrong" he thought to himself even tho he really wanted to try anything to woo her
He noticed after his little gesture that she calmed down and took charge, she analyzed the area and then told him what she thought. She mentioned traps, something he thought about way sooner and she said that they could expect surprises "Yes. Good job. See, I know you can do it" he said and then let go on her hand "I'd love to help you. But this is a perfect situation for you to develop your deduction skills and teammwork skills. You be the brains and I'll be the brawn" G said trying to sound wise and smart even though he was none of that

Akane Satsuki "That was the wrong kind of thing making me weak at the knees..." Crimson Hare Good job? The cheeks of the redhead growing rosier as she found herself being complimented by her companion, in an instinctive act Akane looked down toward the ground in order to try and hide the small smile that she had gained because of it, thinking that if she revealed her joy it might be stolen away or something. Encouraged a little because of the approval that was offered to her, the young rabbit moved forward to take the lead in the operation, letting her hand slip free from that of her mentor as she sought further approval.
It’s dark in here, that will make it harder to spot tripwires and other triggers… The eyes of Miss Satsuki narrowing a little as she surveyed the scene that lay ahead of her, compared to the bright office block in which she had performed a hero rescue alongside another white haired young man this environment was like walking through pitch black darkness. The walkways lit by dim lighting which was probably intentional and served a training purpose, compared to the windowed and well illuminated office block she had practice in the student felt like she was fumbling in the dark and decided that she might need more than just her green gaze in order to react to problems.
“W-Whoa!” It not taking many minutes of travel before that theory would be proven true, as Akane walked through the winding series of paths she found that even the footing underneath them was no so sure as a section of the ground began to give out beneath her. Move! The sharp reflexes of the redhead kicking in as she felt a sensation like one of her legs giving out underneath her and rolling forward with the sudden downward motion, with the foot that seemed to be on something steadier the young woman kicked off the ground more by instinct than design and rolled over her shoulder in much the same fashion as the soldiers had probably been trained. Hitting a sudden slope that had been created as one side of the floor gave out into a pitfall and using fingers that had been trained in her recent free running endeavours to provide herself with a bit more traction the rabbit scrambled onward until she found something that felt like stable ground and paused for a second, looking back toward her partner.
“T-That was close…” Glad for the fact that her reactions had been honed by intensive training in the areas of martial arts and the French discipline known as parkour, it was lucky for the scarlet haired student that the trap that had tried to claim her only seemed a couple of meters or so in length. Looks like I managed to avoid that one… Tripping the mechanism and making the false floor swing downward underneath the modest weight of her body, once she had crossed it the panel lifted back up behind Akane to resume its deceptive appearance rather sneakily, the young woman let out a sigh of relief as her heart continued to pound more from surprise than fear. I knew there’d be something… And I doubt this will be the last either? A shocking turn of events even if she had been half-expecting something like this, it almost felt like encountering a trap in this maze broke the tension somewhat and also did not hurt her sense of esteem too much given how she had been anticipating such a turn.
“Are you going to be OK crossing that, Genzu-san?” Standing back up and looking toward her companion now that the sneaky little section of ground had been highlighted both to her eyes and those of the man that was with her, though she had avoided the pitfall because of her UA training Miss Satsuki had no idea how well G might cope with such a problem. “I can give you a hand if you’re worried about the jump?” Only having witnessed his fighting skills that her comrade could demonstrate and this worried a little about his ability in pure athletics, the leading lady offered out her hands in order to grab the large man if he couldn’t quite muster enough jump length in order to proceed on his own, heroically happy to catch him if her seemed he was going to fall…

As Akane let go of his hand, she proceeded to check out the area, she seemed to struggle with the darkness. G on the other hand was much more used to walking in the dark with little to no light. He was an insomniac and a Vigilante, after all. He'd usually prowl and hunt for his villanous prey in the dark of the night. Its safe to say that his tired eyes just grew used to the darkness "Looks like she's having a hard time. I guess I should help her. But I cant hold her hands and be like a tutorial for her forever. She gotta do things alone" he thought
Then as soon as she took a few steps, something happened. Some trap was activated "For FUCKS SAKE!!! Now what?!?!" he thought as he looked around to see what kind of trap was sprung. Feeling that the floor below them was not safe, he quickly moved back before the floor beneath him gave out. Once it did though, he just sighed depressed since lately he wasnt his 100%. Ever since Susumu crippled him, he just wasnt on his A-game. Even his wounds from that havent fully healed and one of these soldiers just probably opened one of the wounds. His rib was still in pain. Seeing Akane actually already had passed the trap with the use of hardcore parkour, he gave her a thumbs up and smiled. But interally dreaded every moment of this. He sighed and just yolo'd. He rushed ahead and had a running start. He felt the floor beneath him give out. He ran until he had to jump. When the timing was right, he jumped as hard as he can. Luckily Akane had offered her hands. He begrudgingly grabbed them as he didnt want to possibly pull her down with him.

Akane Satsuki "Sometimes a persons greatest weapon can be their words..." Crimson Hare “It’s OK, I’ve got you~” Not sure if G would need her help but in and odd little way glad that he did given how indebted she felt to the man, Akane seized the hand of her mentor eagerly as he seemed to be struggling and gave it the old heave to tug him close to her, which left her off balance a little. “W-Whoa!” The large and strong man a good foot taller than she was and likely much heavier, while her honed and athletic physique meant she did not struggle much to tow the man toward her, when the balance shifted the redhead found herself stumbling backward and nearly ended up with his physique sprawled across hers.
“Heh heh, s-sorry…” Just about managing to dig her heel in behind her and stop that possible situation in its tracks, all the same Miss Satsuki found that she was blushing as the body of Genzu rested on hers, instinctively wrapping her arms tightly around his waist to try and support him before realizing they were stable in a standing position and loosened her grasp. Though given how smitten she was becoming with the man, this seemed a little harder than it might have been with most people.
“It um, l-looks like I-I can’t keep my hands off you t-today, d-doesn't it?” Attempting to maintain a more upbeat outlook especially since she didn’t want the big, strong man feeling like he couldn’t do what she could, though comedy wasn’t her strong point and such a cheesy line made it impossible for Akane to hold eye contact with her partner, she still attempted to lighten the mood a little in order to make things a little less awkward as she slipped out of contact and carried on with her path. Although that being said, she couldn’t help but sense that the mood of her companion had soured somewhat.
Did he not like the joke? I suppose I’m not that good at being goofy… Moving along the corridor a little sheepishly as she glanced over her shoulder and saw that the expression G had begun to wear seemed a little less relaxed and happy than the one he had been sporting since trying to cheer her up, while the rabbit heroine didn’t know exactly what was bothering him it still felt like something she should take responsibility for, either because she might have upset him or because he had lifted her spirits earlier on. However, unlike her, he didn’t seem to be crying out desperately for help, not even a hug, so what could she do?
Interpersonal support isn’t my strong suit, maybe I should try to take his mind off what’s bothering him? Sometimes distractions can help people, giving them something other than the problem at hand to focus on. That’s what those articles said, wasn’t it? Once again falling back into her naturally introverted ways as she agonised internally over the condition of her companion, while she was still taking baby steps in terms of social development, Miss Satsuki had been studying articles on how to deal with stressful situations online in order to make her seem like more of a calm and assuring hero in the future. These seeming useful at the moment, the redhead hummed for a moment or two before realizing that there was something she had meant to say to G ever since she first saw him and circumstances had made her forget. Well there was no time like the present, she supposed.
“I-I um… Got the present y-you sent me? T-The shirt?” Still focusing her attention on what else could be waiting for them in the maze as she attempted to create a bit of small talk between them, though her nerves and the fear that it was her that was ticking G off made the young bunny’s stammer return a little as she spoke, Akane hoped that this little thread between them might be enough to tug her comrade away from whatever was troubling him.
“I-It was a really n-nice thing to do, I-I didn’t really expect a gift but… T-That and the note really made my day?” The green gaze of the girl sweeping over her shoulder a small but genuine smile to the man with whom she had been trapped in this maze with, the timid teen remembered the article that had come in the post for her and how, when she had opened it in her room after receiving it she had felt a little less lonely despite the surprise of its arrival. Still struggling for friends and the fact that someone had gone out of their way to do something nice for her meaning the world to Miss Satsuki, it had been one of the reasons earlier on she had been so happy and excited to see G, because secretly it had made her want to meet him again…

Akane managed to grab G and pull him to safety, she stumbled down backwards and he nearly fell on her. Nearly, as G gained his balance and stopped himself from doing that. And thus the two surpassed trap number 1. "Nice work." he said as he gave her a little compliment before getting down to business "Lets go" G said as he proceeded onwards. He appreciated her help, but he hated how he was overly reliant on a student. He was just fooling her into thinking that she needs him. She could do this alone. She has a good quirk, great athletic skills and she has proper training from UA. G on the other hand? His Quirk is crap which doesnt even work now, he has 0 athleticism, some fighting skills that he either developed on the streets or some online videos and he has a poor excuse of a diet. If anyone was a real Hero, it was Akane. "I'm a joke compared to her. If she had my ego, she'd be unstoppable" he thought to himself
He noticed how upbeat Akane was. It made him a bit glad that he got to cheer her up, a pretty girl like her shuldnt be sad. When she spoke to him, he smiled a bit and answered "Heh... yea... what a coincidence. Dont worry, I dont mind it" After he finished talking to her, G turned to face where he was going and his smile turned into an annoyed and irritated frown as soon as he knew Akane couldnt see him "The fuck was that??! A hot school babe tells you she cant keep her hands off you and you reply like a nerd!? WEAK!!" he mentally berated himself
The two went for a while until Akane spoke once more. She thanked him for his gift that he nearly forgot about. He turned to face her and smiled a bit again "I'm glad you like it. I didnt know really what to get. I aimed for something red and s-pretty! I just saw it and imagined you in it. And I imagine that you'd look great in it" G said as he didnt know how to buy women clothes, he went for somethin that looked nice and maybe subconciously sexy as well. "Note... I forgot what the note was" he thought to himself, but didnt pay attention to it. She liked it and that made him happy
