UA's Gremlins

The Demon Duo return home

Izuku leaned against the wall of the alley they had taken a break in. Neither had stopped running since getting over the wall of that damn school. Silence echoed through the cold stone alley, broken only by their heavy breathing. Both teens shared a glance, torn about having run. Maybe Aizawa wasn't going to turn them in? Maybe it was a scare tactic? Both boys turned away from each other after several minutes. Neither said anything as Izuku pulled a hidden transmitter from his belt and hit the button. Seconds later, a warp gate swirled into existence. The boys walked through, ready for a fight if it came to that.

"You're okay," Kurogiri said as he walked up to the two boys as the gate closed behind them in the new hideout. The smokey man pulled both close, holding them tighter than he had their entire life with the league. Izuku returned the hug while Katsuki snorted at the affection but didn't pull away. Dabi raced down the steps, crashing into the two boys as he snatched them out of Kurogiri's arms and into his own.

"Don't you ever fucking let your guard down like that again, you damn little punk!" Dabi snarled as he leaned back to study Izuku. "We all thought you had died."

Izuku smirked. "Takes a lot more than that to kill me."

"Burnt chicken nugget," Katsuki spat.

"Angry Pomeranian," Dabi shot back. "Why the emergency beacon?"

Izuku looked down, face going pale. "I fucked up."

"What do you mean, young master?" Kurogiri asked, yellow eyes narrowing.

"He means that damn rat and the hobo know," Katsuki explained. "Izuku lost control and Aizawa busted him knocking that ego maniac around. He put two and two together when Izuku didn't play possum."

Izuku flinched back, shrinking behind Katsuki. Katsuki stared down the other two men, back straight. Dabi stared at them as Kurogiri sighed. Dabi's cackle broke the silence.

"Please tell me the blond bitch pissed his pants when you unleashed your gremlin!" the dark haired fire user laughed.

Katsuki glanced at Izuku. "Well?"

Izuku looked hesitant, but straightened and blushed. "Yeah..." He started to grin at the memory. "It felt nice to bring that fear into someone again."

Dabi smiled when he saw his insane, adopted younger siblings share a smirk and soft laugh. He nearly burned their hide out down when their "leader" made his presence known.

"What the hell have you done!" Shigaraki screeched as he stomped into the room. "Your little show at that damn school is already all over social media and the news is picking it up."

Izuku ducked back, hiding behind Katsuki. While they all knew Izuku would easily overpower their psychotic brother, he also had a deep fear of Shigaraki's anger that none of them really understood.

The older teen scratched at his neck, eyes blazing with anger. "All of these months of work down the drain for what? To show off? Cause some preschooler pissed in your cheerios?"

"Shut the fuck up," Katsuki snarled. "Don't say shit you have no idea about. Do you know how long we've held back? How long its been since we've gotten to be ourselves? One of us was bound to snap...especially after what you fuckin' caused in that damn power grab you pulled."

"Of course you're bringing that up!" Shigaraki shouted back. "I apologized and let you kill that pathetic woman. What more do you want?"

"Did you know?" Katsuki spat back. Everyone stilled as the blond's response didn't make sense.

"Know what?" Shigaraki snarled.

"Did you know the truth about our mothers?" Katsuki growled, hands heating up and smoking. Behind him, Izuku's hands held tight to his top, a silent warning to calm down and keep back.
