His intern Tokoyami brings to Hawks' attention a mysterious message Tokoyami received from his classmate with the message being coordinates to nearby alleyway. Fearing that Tokoyami's classmate may be hurt or been attacked by a Noumu, Hawks and Tokoyami head to the message's coordinates.

Hawks comes across three of Tokoyami's classmates fighting for their lives against Stain and trying to defend a downed pro-hero. When Hawks gives much needed aid and attacks Stain, never had he expected how much future events would change things.
