◆35◆ Song of Flower Arc - Bouquet of destruction

Kirishima kept hold of Michiyo's hand, making sure to not let her go this time. He was so happy to be able to guide her to safety and holding her hand. He missed so many opportunities to do so and now he could finally do it. He wished he could have held her hand earlier and take her out of danger, but it was better late than never. 

"This time, I'll make sure you live! I will have you living!" 

"Kirishima," Michiyo smiled, "Even if I am not her, you still wish to protect me..."

"Because is in a way, you are her. To me, you will always be a part of her. If I can rescue you, it's like saving her in a way, right?" 

Bakugou was blowing up debris to help clear a path for them. He wasn't about to let anything get in their way. Truth to be told, this was none of his business at all; he doesn't have any of the memories Kirishima have, he only trusted the other by words only. If you talk to Bakugou about it, even he thought Kirishima was dropped on the head or he's making a rather far-fetched fanfiction...but he trusted Kirishima because of how serious and dedicated Kirishima was when it came to protecting Michiyo. Also, he believed in Kirishima a little given he was actually a little hurt when he saw Michiyo cry; there was a part of Bakugou who wanted to tell her not to cry and wanting to protect her. 

'I wonder if half-and-half is the same...' Bakugou thought to himself. 

They were about to run past a television shop, but Michiyo paused because there was a live footage of Dabi fighting someone. "Dabi...!" 

Dabi was not one to fight with honor, he's the type who will fight when he's got the advantages. He was happy to know Endeavor was injured prior to the fight, it made things a lot easier since the other's movement became sluggish. "What's the matter, Endeavor? Aren't you going to set me on fire? I thought you enjoyed playing with fire?" 

"You...!" Endeavor dodged each of the flared punches, but Dabi was much quicker and he was attacked from the side again and again. "Kuh...!" Endeavor fell to one knee, but he let out a powerful burst of fire again just to make Dabi back off. 

Dabi did back off, but when he saw a woman crawling out of the debris far in the background, he smirked and he directed his palm to the direction of the civilian. 

Endeavor saw that and he quickly got in the way of the blue blaze. He used his own fire to block out Dabi's. "Leave now!" Endeavor called out to the woman, "I can't rescue you, you need to get out of here by yourself!" 

"Endeavor-san...!" The civilian was very scared because she could see the current No.1 Hero was burning up. 

"Hurry up and leave!" 

The woman scrambled, but she was blocked off by the blue wall of fire that was starting to go down before. 

"Oops, it almost went down. I can't have you escaping." 

"Endeavor-san...!" 

"You bastard!" Endeavor was very angry, but he pushed himself even further despite the rising temperature. He managed to overpower Dabi's power, an explosion was ignited, blowing the civilian out of the wall of fire. He managed to save the civilian, but it made him feel dizzy due to the scorching temperature on his own body. 

"You should have just let the dumb woman die. I would have done that." Dabi popped a pill into his mouth. Giran said it was a drug that instantly cools down the body's temperature, it was a perfect drug for those who controlled fire-based Quirks. However, the drug was still in its testing stage, it's not official as of yet. Dabi felt very cold, but he didn't show that to Endeavor because he just used his own fire to re-balance his own temperature. Why was this drug important? So he could use his fire to purge the whole city.
