The Return of The Missing

15).

Izuku POV

I, Aki, and Shio went to the black market to check if there was any new information there, when I got there I felt strange because there were no guards at the entrance and I asked Aki and Shio to prepare to fight.

I took out my two pistols and we walked in slowly, it was very quiet inside and this made me even more suspicious that something was wrong here, I looked at the market and saw marks like battles and there were several weapons around the shop there.

I slowly collect the guns just in case I run out of my pistol bullets, I look around us but there is absolutely no one around us, I decide to walk towards the row of slave shops because that place is a good place to hide.

We walked past the shop which was filled with various items but no one was selling it, I took some weapons and goods from the shop for me to keep in the base and I asked Aki and Shio to do the same thing until the bags we brought were full.

"Does this include stealing?" Shio asked.

"No, we just take free items from the thieves" I replied, when we arrived at the slave shop we saw there were still many slaves in the shop and when we approached them they looked scared.

"tell me what's going on here?" I asked a slave.

"e-earlier there was a sound of fighting from the direction of the gun shop at the other end and many people ran away from all their belongings and ran out of the market, I-I don't know what happened," the boy said.

"I will free you but before that, I want to ask, are there any of you who are injured?" I asked and the children looked confused and nodded.

"Yes, he was injured because of the punishment from the shop owner because he was noisy," said one of the children who looked the oldest of the others.

"Is there anything else in the cage beside you? How many?" I ask.

"Yes, they are in brackets at the bottom of the shop, about 6 children aged 5-7 years" replied the oldest.

"Can you show me? I'll take you to my place with other children, do you want?" I ask.

"what do you want to do with us?" the boy asked.

"take care of you like any other child I saved" I replied as I opened their cage.

"Show me the place where the other kids are," I said and they showed me a way down and below where some of the kids locked up apart.

"You five, follow me I will free you," I said and the five children nodded and followed me.

"Aki and Shio go to check another slave shop, if there are children there save them while I will check the origin of the voice that was said earlier," I said and they nodded.

"Sorry to ask for this, can those of you who don't bring anything take all the things you can take from the local shops?" I asked and they nodded.

"Don't take the meat and the organs, we don't need that," I added as I walked to the gun shop that the kid told me about.

when I got to the shop I saw a terrible sight, corpses everywhere and the floor was full of blood and I realized some corpses had wounds like dog bites but bigger, I looked around and found an injection that looked like there was still a little red liquid.

I decided to bring it up for my research and I found a corpse of a man with a wolf animal quirk and he had an injection mark on his neck, it looks like this man went on a rampage but he died of a heart attack or organ failure because he had no injuries and only had injection marks.
