Achille's Heel (DabixReader)

Chapter Forty-One

Remember, I said we're getting into some real sad shit? We're here...grab a blanket, pillow, whatever comfort item of your choosing. Lots of heavy and dark themes in this chapter including death. (MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD, but I changed a LOT. So if you're not sure about something being canon, you can ask.) Deep breaths. I love you. <3

Seemingly oblivious to your presence, the two continued to fight. Hawks zipped down from the sky and swiped his blade at Touya. He lunged out of the way just in time, sliding back a little on the dusty floor. The outer wall of the building was busted open with bricks scattered everywhere. Blue flames blasted from Dabi's hands and scorched the side of one of Keigo's wings.

The winged hero cringed at the pain, gritting his teeth as he pushed himself back up into the air. Dabi sent fireballs into the sky, flinging them as he shrieked and cursed at Hawks.

"He was your friend! I was your friend!" He yelled as he stomped closer to him. A deep growl vibrated his chest and he flung his hands out again, a burst of flames shooting from his palms. "WE TRUSTED YOU!"

Keigo flicked smaller feathers down to the ground. One knicked Dabi's arm, causing him to wince and distracting him from the others that pelted him in the opposite shoulder. He groaned and ripped the feathers from his flesh, lighting them on fire.

"I know," Keigo chuckled darkly with a sinister smirk. "That's what made it so easy to trick you. Two kids in love...you the dastardly villain who I finally won over with my award-worthy charm...Y/N the sweet trusting hero who bought into every word I said. How could a fellow pro hero and her new friend and confidant lie to her?" He placed a hand on his chest and gave a mock offended look. "I would never...right?"

You formed an arrow of light and flung it into the sky, piercing Hawks' already injured wing. He gasped and faltered in the air, trying to keep himself hovering above the ground on his one untouched wing. Touya's gaze snapped to you and his eyes widened.

"Y/N, get out of here! It's not safe," he yelled.

Keigo growled lowly and turned back to your boyfriend. You gasped and screamed out. He sent down a hailstorm of sharpened feathers. Dabi sent out a burst of flames to burn them all up. The feathers sizzled in the heat. Keigo dropped to the ground, his wings barely there at this point. He still held his blade steady in his hand as he marched towards Touya. He lit up his hands with blue flames in each palm.

"Don't worry about your sweet little hero girlfriend," Hawks' sneered. "I've got plans for her, too. After you're dead I'm going to tell the commission all about your little secret love story."

He glanced back at you over his shoulder with a cold, enraged stare. "I fed you all the perfect information and you played right into my hand. I had to be sure that you would betray hero society before I brought you down. And I was right...you're nothing but a traitor." He shook his head and turned his attention back to Touya. "All for him."

Your eyes widened as the two of them lunged for the other. You screamed out and reached for them, taking a few steps in their direction. Small red feathers pinned you back against the wall, piercing through your shoulder and making you wail in pain. You watched in horror as they dodged each other's blows.

"Touya!" You screeched.

His eyes flickered to you and seemed to explode as they filled with wild rage. He rushed Keigo and gripped his shoulders tightly. The winged hero screamed as blue flames trailed across his shoulders and across his back, scorching his wings. His head snapped forward and he grunted. You gasped, helpless to stop what happened next, only able to watch as the entire world seemed to slow down.
