Darkside

29.Charge Forward

Aizawa Looked around their surroundings. With him was Night Eye, Fat Gum, Amajiki, Kirishima, Rock Lock, the chief of police and 5 more officers. The room they were dropped in was small and unfurnished, but as he looked around he noticed three figures. Thanks to the files that were handed out before the operation he was able to instantly identify them as three of the eight precepts of death.

Amajiki stepped forward. “They are just trying to buy time so Chisaki can escape with Eri. Mirio and Midoriya may have gone ahead already but they are going to need our help so we can’t afford to split up our forces. I can handle these guys myself.”

“What are you talking about,” Kirishima shouted. “We have to work together!”

“Yeah, you heard him,” one of the villains said. “Work together, I'll make quick work of you.” He stepped forward with a katana in his hands but Amajiki manifested a giant clam shell on his hand and knocked it away before grabbing the three with tentacles. 

“Larceny Setsuno. Crystallization Hojo. Meal Tabe. I’ll be your opponent. I ate my fill of takoyaki at Fat’s office, so my octopus proficiency levels are at their peak. I’m also extremely wary of weapons like these since I’ve been shot once.” Amajiki took the weapons with more tentacles before transforming them into a giant crab claw and crushing the weapons. “It’s pointless to waste our time taking these guys on. We’ve got plenty of pro heroes on the premises. This situation, it’s exactly what we wished for.”

“But Amajiki,” Kirishima started but Fat Gum put a hand on his shoulder and shook his head.

“Trust me, he can handle this. Let’s get a move on, through that door.” With the large hero leading the way the group left Amajiki behind while continuing their progress towards Chisaki.

“Fat, you’re seriously leaving Amajiki behind like that? Are you crazy?”

“He’s one of yours so I left it up to you but are you sure it was such a good idea to leave him behind like that,” Lock Rock asked. “Will he be okay?”

“In terms of ability he surpasses everyone here. But his heart is weak, he feels like he’s under pressure to do everything perfectly and he lets himself be crushed by that pressure. But even in that state he managed to climb his way to becoming one of the big three at UA. Right now he is determined and even told us that he would stop them himself, trust me when I say we can leave it to him. A real man would trust in his allies.”

Kirishima being the type of person he is instantly brightened up. “Yeah you’re right, he’s going to be absolutely fine.”
“Well that was really fast,” Lock Rock thought.

They ran on, when once again Irinaka caused problems. A pillar shot out of the wall and was aimed at Aizawa, but before it could hit him Fat Gum pushed him out of the way and was sent thro the wall instead. In order to completely separate them Irinaka closed the wall back off, sealing Fat Gum from the others inside of a dark room that was empty like the last one. Fat Gum got to his feet and as he did so he noticed that Kirishima was underneath him. “Hey, what are you doing here red?”

Kirishima rubbed his head sheepishly. “Well you see, I also jumped and pushed Eraserhead out of the way but I ended up getting sucked into your fat.” Kirishima suddenly noticed a fist come flying out of the darkness and used his newest move, red riot unbreakable, to defend both himself and Fat Gum. But he was quickly overwhelmed and slammed into the wall, the wall starting to crack and a small crater forming. When the punches finally stopped flying, both the attacker and Fat Gum could see that the young student was barely standing with blood streaming down his arms.

Fat Gum threw a punch at the villain but was blocked by a force field as another villain stepped out of the shadows. “Fat Gum… and a boy that can harden his body. Hmm… The two of you have quirks that excel at defense. Rappa, it’s a shame isn’t it?”
