GHOST - Dabi x OC

Pt 12

I stood outside the motel Toga was staying at she was taking a while and we were going to be late. I was going to have to follow close behind so I could make it inside Kai's underground "Lair" and if she didn't hurry up then they're gonna not let us in at this point. She finally walked out in her schoolgirl outfit. It made me a bit sad I never got to wear something like that.

"Morning Yumma-san" she skipped over to my bike.

"Morning. Here" I handed her my other helmet.

"Ouu you can drive this thing cool" she smiled putting on her helmet.

"Get on we gotta go" I got on my bike and patted the back telling her to sit. She walked over and got comfortable. All right let's go. I drove off. the cold morning air left nice against my skin. I drive until I made it to a few blocks away from where she was supposed to meet Overbauls underling. Twice was waiting for us in the alleyway.

"Twice!" she jumped off the motorcycle as I parked it. they began a conversation and I interrupted them.

"Alright let's go through the game plan. I'm gonna follow behind you guys and if I need to you cover me and hide me while I take a deep breath. I don't think you'll need to though. As long as we go in right away I should be fine. Once we go inside I'm on my own don't worry about me."

"Sounds good!" Twice put up a thumbs up. They began walking to the meeting place I followed close behind them making sure to keep my distance. I saw one of Overhaul's little minions he pointed down an alleyway and they followed. I ran and caught up to them. Before I turned the corner I took a deep breath. I followed close behind. The guy opened the door and lead Twice and Toga in. I slipped in slowly before he closed the door. I stayed still and waited for them to leave. They turned a corner and I let out a breath. I waited a few minutes before turning the corner and finding a staircase that lead down.

I walked down and when I reached the bottom I noticed it was a dead end. A concrete wall. I knocked on it. It was thin. I pushed on it and it moved out of place. I moved it to the side and slid my way in position the wall back in its original position.

Shigaraki had explained the layout to me so I knew they were probably headed straight down and had taken a right at the first corner. Shigaraki said not to go down there. I made it to the first corner and passed it. I saw a door and opened it. I held my breath as it opened. Nothing on the other side but a couch and a desk. Still might as well search. I walked over to the desk and pulled the drawer. A few papers but nothing important I skimmed through until something caught my eye. It was a file with my father's picture and the amount he donated. It was a lot. More than I could imagine. Where the hell did he get that money from it made no sense.

I looked at his file but no contact information seemed to be on it. I took a picture of the file and put it back in its place. I looked at the other files. Another benefactor also from the states my father's name is mentioned in the references. There was a number on it and an address for a town. I took a picture. This is the only lead I got. I began putting all the papers back in the drawer and closing it.

Before I had time to move from my spot the door opened slowly. I held my breath and crouched down hiding under the table. I let out my breath quietly and held my breath again this time a big one so I could hold it for a while. I heard the door close as footsteps approached I looked at the side of the desk waiting for someone's legs to pop up. Instead, a child stood in front of me. She crawled under the desk unbeknownst to the fact that I was sitting right next to her. I slowly stood up out of the desk and moved out of sight and let out my breath. I didn't want to scare her. I walked over now making noise to let her know I was in the room. I neared her and noticed her eyes were closed. I kneeled down and spoke softly

"I'm not gonna hurt you don't worry" she opened her eyes slowly to meet mine she stopped shaking "What's your name?" she didn't answer. I understood. "It's okay you don't have to tell me." I smiled and sat down. she leaned forward and spoke up.

"They're going to hurt you if they find you here" she pleaded.

"Don't worry I won't get caught" I smiled. "watch" I held my breath. she looked around scared. I let out my breath and she jumped a little "See. I'm okay. But you on the other hand why are you hiding." she stayed quiet again. She held her bandaged arms. "Did the man hurt you?" she nodded her head. I was angry I wanted to go over and stab Kai right now. "I want to help you. But it might be a bit difficult. I need to get something so let's go and we'll leave right after. If we can't get out today don't worry I saw two heroes with you the other day. I'm going to send them information to help find you. They can get you out of here if I can't. Until then you have to stay strong. Here I want you to have this" I reached into my pocket and pulled out a bullet with a needle. It had a tranquilizer inside "If you find a moment to escape use this and it'll make them freeze and you can run." I stood up and she did too.

"Who are you?" she looked at me endearingly.

"Just a girl" I smiled "I'm not letting the bad man keep doing this to you I promise." I didn't want to leave her here but there was no way for me to take her with me. I went on my knees again and slowly reached for her hands"Please stay strong for me okay? You're going to make it out of here I promise. Let's go" she nodded. Suddenly the door slammed opened and I held my breath. I looked over to see a yakuza member.

"Eri what are you doing here come on let's go back to your room" she walked over and listened to him. She looked back one last time and smiled. The door closed again and I heard their footsteps fade. I slammed my hand against the table. Fuck. I missed my chance to get her out, we would've gotten caught if I decided to take her right now. I was royally pissed for Kai to go as far as taking this child's body apart to produce a god damn bullet was disgusting. No wonder he didn't care what my father had done he was one in the same if not worse. He was going to pay for it, he was going to suffer I was going to make sure of that. I began walking toward the door and opened it holding my breath and peeking out the door. The hallway was empty. I began walking down the hall again. I walked for a bit when I saw another door. I looked at the top it was labeled lab. I opened the door and held my breath once more. To my luck, it was empty inside.

I walked in and closed the door behind me. There was a chair with restraints on it. I didn't like that. I walked over to the counter and saw a black suitcase. I opened it and inside lay about 40 bullets. The same one Shigaraki showed me. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the one Shigaraki had given me along with the replicas I had managed to make last night. They were just tranquilizers. I replaced about 5 of the bullets and put the rest in my casing in my pocket. I looked around and saw a fat notebook sitting on the counter. I opened it and inside designed for the bullet. I pulled out my phone and took pictures of every page I could. I needed to get out of here before I get caught. I closed the notebook and began to walk toward the door. I heard talking outside and listened closely.

"You think they're actually here to help"

"I don't know they seemed genuine and they didn't lie so probably"

"I don't trust them"

"Neither do I but we've gotta put up with them I guess" the voices got closer and they opened the door and walked in. I held my breath and walked out into the hallway. They closed the door and stayed in the room. I looked around and let out my breath. I ran down the hallway and made it back to the exit. I was getting exhausted just this last thing and I get to go home. I pushed my hand against the concrete and slowly started to go through. I finally reached the other side and sat on the ground to gain my strength. God, why was that so draining? I stood up and began making my way out of the building and out of the alleyway. I reached the open and it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Fuck that little girl probably had this feeling too and then it was ripped away. I needed to do something. I pulled out my phone and looked at the time it was early they probably were just about starting for the day.
