Ch. 28: Damsel in Distress

"Eraser, are you alright?" All Might sat up, helping Shota.

"Yeah. I'm fine, but this won't be easy."

"She needs to be knocked out cold." All Might stated. "I can help with that."

Tigris stood up shaking the building debris off herself. Eraser's rope hung from her snout but no longer held its tight grip. She looked at the two heroes then the blonde one. Mic and the dragon made eye contact. He readied himself. Tigris began to approach him quickly, not flinching or waiting.

Yamada took in a deep breath and held it until she was only feet before him.

"TIGRIS!"

Activating his quirk to this extent took a lot out of him. Tigris shut her eyes tightly and crunched down receiving the blow. Her ears tilted back trying to block out the noise.

He breathed deeply falling to his knees.

Disoriented Tigris staggered about trying to keep her balance. The control device on her neck began to shock her and spark flashes of electricity. The voice control had been overloaded with Mic's quirk.

She let out a roar, a new sound to everyone around her.

Mic, out of breath, didn't pay attention to her next move. She reached down and grabbed the hero by his long hair with her powerful jaws and lifted him up. He reached up and yelled out in pain, holding his hair to ease the pull on his scalp.

Shota saw him and thought fast, "Toshi, throw me!"

All Might was still gathering himself from the impact, "Huh?"

"Throw me at Tigris!"

He saw the blonde hero struggling, "Make sure you grab on!" He picked up Shota over his shoulder and tossed him like a football at Nature.

Eraser grabbed onto her horn, jolting her head slightly. She let out a low growl, keeping a death grip on HIzashi's hair. Shota wrapped his capture weapon around her horn and lowered himself to Hizashi.

"Time for a haircut, Mic." He pulled out his knife from his pocket and cut Mic's hair.

Yamada fell to the ground, hitting the concrete hard.

Tigris began to whip her head around trying to shake off Eraser. He held a death grip on her.

Thankfully, reinforcements came. Heros began to simultaneously attack Tigris with their quirks causing her further irritation. Toshi worried they would actually hurt her to an extreme.

Shota was able to jump down from her, dodging her talons. "Mic!"

Mic laid on the ground, unresponsive. As he approached the hero Tigris placed her claws down between the two, ignoring the attacks from the other heroes. She shook her entire body throwing off all those physically attacking her.

"Watch out!" A hero yelled to others who began to whip away one by one.

Tigris bent down to Hizashi's body taking it in her jaws similar to a crocodile carrying her young. His limbs hung out of the side of her teeth, but her mouth never closed.

"MIC!" Shota yelled.

She stood tall and leaped off the ground into the air.

"She can fucking fly?!"

The white beast became smaller and smaller as she flew away from the battle between villains and heroes.

"Eraser! We can get them later, we're needed elsewhere." All Might placed a hand on his shoulder. "We can only hope for the best."
