Dabi and Tomura had been bickering all day, and it was starting to get on Kurogiri's nerves. Despite the friendship building between the members of the league, it didn't stop the quips, and insults passed both ways. Toga did little to help the situation as she just watched and hummed with her normal grinning expression.

"Both of you stop your squabbling." Kurogiri tried to calm them and eyed the time. "It's nearly sundown. Karma should be home from school and we've business to attend to. The new weapons Giran promised have finally arrived, and we have to go over our strategy for the Stain collaboration."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah let's get going then." Tomura grunted, and stood up from the chess table. Knowing Izumi liked the game he and Dabi had both been practicing to give her more of a challenge. "I still say you cheated." Tomura pointed his finger in Dabi's face. Kurogiri's warp opened up.

"It's impossible to cheat at Chess. At any rate we're villains, it's in our code to cheat." Dabi rubbed his ear irritably. At Tomura's narrowed glare he sighed. "Look just give it a rest already. You're giving me a headache."

"I'll give you more than a headache you damn-" He started as they stepped into the warp and came out on the other side in Izumi's apartment.

"DON'T TOUCH ME YOU FILTHY FAKE!!!"

Izumi's rage-filled voice caught all of them off guard. They stood in the living room all shocked as Izumi's quirk whipped around out of control pinning down a large unfamiliar figure. It struggled and thrashed, little sparks of fire leaking out under the mass of her tentacles.

"Queeny's killing someone!" Toga jumped and clapped. "Oh goodie!"

"Not goodie, she's lost control of her quirk!" Dabi quickly ducked a stray tentacle. "She's gonna kill us all unless we stop her!"

"KARMA!" Tomura shouted her name. "STOP IT NOW!" When he was ignored Tomura sneered. "Kurogiri use your warp and get me right behind her."

"Right" He opened one up and both Tomura and Dabi jumped through grabbing Izumi by an arm and trying to subdue her.

"Karma! Karma calm down!" Dabi tried to shake her loose by she jerked against them punching and thrashing. He let out an oof as a stray elbow caught him in the ribs and Tomura grunted when her foot kicked out and caught his thigh.

"IZUMI!" Tomura finally shouted her name and turned her face closing his mouth over hers. The kiss finally broke the rage and Izumi blinked and slumped, her eyes returning to normal and her body going limp.

"T-Tomura?" Izumi held her head, her face deathly pale and her vision blurring from her loss of energy. "What happened?"

"That's what we'd like to know." He pet her head sighing with relief as things went back to normal. Thankfully all the windows and doors were undamaged which meant that no outside forces would be looking to investigate. Still she'd demolished a lot of furniture including the interior decorations and plants. "Just who the hell pissed you off?"

"My guess is this guy." Toga squatted next to Endeavor's limp corpse and she poked him in the cheek to make sure he was dead. "Nice work, Queeny."

"What?" Izumi looked up and her eyes went wide. "Oh shit!" She ran to the corpse and shook him. "Shit! OH SHIT SHIT SHIT!" She slammed her fists on his chest. "FUCKING SHIT!"

"What's wrong, who is..." Dabi came around the broken table and his own eyes went wide as saucers. "Is that... Endeavor!?"

Izumi nodded and she fell back and held her head cursing again.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I just... he got me so angry! He hit me and I..."

"He hit you?" Tomura sneered and kicked the limp body. "Good riddance!"
