   Summary

   Sometimes, Hitoshi wished he could disappear.

   No, he wasn't suicidal. Yes, he was satisfied with his circumstances overall. But he would be lying if he claimed that everything was how he wanted it to be.

   Being an Underground hero required sacrifice and a certain ruthlessness to ensure success. He had been beaten, kidnapped, threatened, and hospitalized to protect society.

   While topside heroes smiled for cameras and pedaled merchandise, he was journeying through the Underground always expecting to die. Always watching, always listening, while knowing that any night could be his last.

   It wasn't just that though.

   No, he had made the stupid, absolutely childish and bullheaded mistake of becoming the Number Four Hero's friend with benefits. Dynamight needed a release, Hitoshi needed a distraction.

   Now, he was facing the consequences for it.
