<br/>
Togame's head hurt immensely. She heard the voice, but it was as if it came from underwater, and it was impossible to decipher the words. She tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids were so heavy it felt like they were made out of iron, weighing down and disrupting her sight. Slowly, the white-haired woman took a deep breath and something in her chest hurt, but the pain stopped as quickly as it came. And second after second, with the pain in her chest gone, Togame's senses started coming back to her. When the nausea subsides, the hero finally opened her eyes and gathered her bearings. A man, clad in police uniform, was kneeling next to her, his hand on her shoulder as he shook her gently, but continuously. "I'm.. I'm awake", she said, her voice hoarse and dry.<br/>
<br/>
She got up on her elbows first, and then sat up properly. Her head responded with pain and she brought her fingertips to her temple, noticing the blood as it was left on her skin. She looked around and noticed another policeman laying motionless nearby. "Is he-", Togame started, her stomach dropping. "No. He's fine. Unconscious.. I will help him right away, Droplet. But the villain..", the policeman who woke her up shook his head. Togame groaned and got up. The world was a bit blurry, but nothing she couldn't handle.<br/>
<br/>
"I'll take care of it." She murmured. Before she could even do anything, though, another explosion made everything rattle. For a second, she thought she could hear Rasputin's booming voice... With the walls ruined and everything in disarray, she had even less idea about her whereabouts, so distant as it was, the villain's voice was the only lead she had. Not wanting to waste another second, she sprinted towards where she'd heard the voice, careful not to fall over as she made her way through the rubble.<br/>
<br/>
She knew she was close when the sounds of fighting become louder. Surprisingly, however, they didn't sound like explosions.. Not anymore. Togame sped up and came running into the room - or what was left of it - to see the complete and utter destruction, with Smoke Bomb and Rasputin right in the middle, exchanging blows.. Or rather, laying them down hard when it came to the female, and receiving them when it came to the man. The hero took a step towards them and hesitated. Smoke Bomb, in her rage, turned her head towards the hero for a second and snarled, but she refused to pay full attention to the new person. Her seething rage could be felt for miles, and Togame shuddered feeling the nasty anger crawl on her skin.<br/>
<br/>
What prompted her to act was the fact Smoke Bomb somehow managed to get a hold of a knife. She didn't waste time raising it above her head for a spectacular attack. Togame's breathing slowed. She closed her eyes for a second - that's all she needed - and took a deep breath, feeling the flow of water around her... Rasputin.. Herself.. Smoke Bomb. Her eyes flew open and at that very moment, the female villain froze. Only her eyes were moving, bloody and shooting furious glares as she began to slowly get up and move off of Rasputin, a disgusting growl stewing in her throat. The whole process looked ridiculous, as if she was a marionette with its strings pulled, yet fighting every second.<br/>
<br/>
Togame felt more blood gush through the wound on her temple. "Don't you dare move", she snarled at Rasputin, her eyes not leaving Smoke Bomb's frame. She took a few steps towards the two, lightheaded, and ripped her sleeve off. The villain was now on her knees, back bent and her arms bent back, wrists ready to be bound. Togame felt nauseous, the bile creeping up her throat. She could barely focus. Slowly, like in a haze, she bound the villain's wrists, the woman still trying to thrash and jerk about.<br/>
<br/>
"Don't you dar-" Togame repeated, but was cut off when Smoke Bomb's foot sprung back and hit her in the stomach. The female villain got up on her feet and snarled at Togame, but the latter had enough. She lunged towards the other female and brought her fist right into the other's mouth, earning a moment of shock from Smoke Bomb. And that was enough. She brought her hand to the villain's face and growled, causing the blood to leave her face just enough so she'd be rendered unconscious. It was far from flashy... But Togame didn't care for it now.<br/>
<br/>
As Smoke Bomb slid onto the ground, motionless, the hero turned to Rasputin. She opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, she fell face first next to the female villain, blood seeping from her temple onto the floor.​</div>
