(KiriBakuDeku) And They Will Come

Chapter Seventeen

Katsuki turned himself into a small snake underneath the rumble and slithered unnoticed passed the cloaked King. He hissed at the white-haired Alpha but didn't stop to bother with him. Izuku wanted the blonde to find their friends, and find them he would. Without shifting out of his snake form he stuck out his tongue to scent the air, barely catching the scent of Kaminari.

The smell of herbs and spices led him away from the mess, he passed the place that was once the weapons shop and found a piece of Kaminari's robe stuck under a rock. The wizard was close, and the redhead was bound to be with him.

The orange snake slithered farther, he blinked his eyes to clear out the dust before sticking out his tongue again.

Where are they?

He hissed when the rotten stench touched his tongue, but found the Vodka Lemonade in the underlying scent. Katsuki quickly slithered around what was once the large flower heart that kids had played by. Katsuki then heard a whimper coming from a house that had fallen from the crack in the ground.

Fucking idiots! He thought as he slithered over, The whimpering was getting louder and sounded all too familiar. Kaminari was pinned underneath, his leg was stuck under a piece of wood as it twisted in an ugly way. The orange snake opened his mouth to show off his fangs, the blonde wizard noticed him almost immediately and gave a weak smile.

"Katsuki? Please let that be you," he begged and the snake just hissed out of annoyance before shifting back into human form. He crossed his arms as he stood over the injured Beta, his nose scrunched up at the scent of blood.

"You're damn right it's me! Now be quiet or he'll hear you," he snarled before digging around the blonde's leg. Rocks and twigs were easy to move but as the dragon dug around his leg he found a more severe problem. Not only was Kaminari's leg broken but the piece of wood had impaled the Beta's leg, blood pooled around him and Katsuki feared the worst.

"Is it bad? Why did you stop?" Kaminari asked, he clutched his bag trying to prepare himself. Katsuki just sniffed as he shook his head.

"Shut up Dunce," he whispered gently before wrapping his teeth around the branch impaling the wizard's leg. He snapped in easily before dragging the blonde out of the rumble and back out into the fresh air. He covered his mouth, silently telling him to stay quiet as he scented the air. The rotten scent was getting fainter, Shigaraki was moving and the dragon knew exactly who he was after.

"Dunce you need to listen, we need to stay very quiet. The Omega is in trouble and moving very fast, Where is the redheaded bastard?" He asked he moved his hand as the Beta let out a faint squeak as he held his leg. He attempted to sit up but couldn't bear the pain shooting threw his leg.

"He went to find help, he couldn't move the rocks so he covered me so no one would find me. My staff broke, otherwise, I would've just done it myself," he explained. The blonde Alpha nodded, taking in Kirishima's scent, and noticed the zig-zag pattern, as if he was running from something. The dragon growled at the thought of the redhead in distress but tried to keep his head clear.

"Okay Kam, up you go," he grumbled as he picked up the Beta, wrapped his legs around his waist, and carried him on his back. The blonde clenched his teeth as he held the dragon-shifters neck but attempted to crack a smile.

"I think that's the first time you haven't called me Dunce Face," he chuckled before gasping at the pain shooting threw him.

"Don't get yourself worked up!" The Alpha snapped but the Beta just smiled in response.

"You're changing my friend," he clutched the dragon's shoulders as the Alpha started tracking a scent. Katsuki just ignored the Beta as he followed that bittersweet scent of his Alpha, hoping that no harm had come to the redhead. His scent led them closer to the cloaked King but Katsuki made sure to stick to the sidelines. What concerned him was that he couldn't sense the greenette anymore and his heart tripped in his chest.
