The team was worried about the people they were expected to meet just a few days later, because of how Izanami was portrayed, they expected all of them to look insane and super dangerous, but what they actually got looked more like an RPG party. Azur was an adult male with tanned healthy skin with brown eyes and jet black hair. He wore full heavy armor but demonstrated with stretches that it did not affect him as much as one would expect. On his back was a giant two handed sword that looked more like a carpenter's saw than a blade should. He stayed silent and held his helm in his arm. He looked around the room and inched over a little towards a girl in skin tight yellow clothes and a stereotypical witch hat. "What do you think Amber?"

"They are bunched up, so that will be easy, and the heroes tend to charge right in, making it more cramped so this is going to be more of a slaughter than the Feast."

"They are allies, and our targets are the Faust members."

"I'm going to be fine, but what about you and Crim. You both love your...jobs."

"I'll try,, they won't need their limbs to live right?" A person in regular street clothes but a mask that completely covered his face. "So this is the building we are going to hit?" He looked at the images on the screen. "Doesn't seem like that much," he sat down and began messing with the angles of the camera. "I think Izanami only sent us because of you Ashor."

"Why just me?"

"You did something no one else who asks a favor ever does, you came thinks it may be your shadow so she wants to find out. I think our boss likes you." Amber smiled mischievously.

"Well, hopefully nothing bad happens with the shadow." Ashor scratched his neck. "It still itches from the last time."

"That's what you get from someone called Izanami, and also someone known as the Japanese vampire."

"True, but she does good work so why go elsewhere?" Ashor shrugged.

"Maybe to not get bit every time you need something."

"Wait…" Ayaka turned and glared at Faust. "She bites you."

"It is how her quirk works. She does you a favor and she takes a bit of knowledge from you, but she needs your blood."

"Oh…"

"Thought Ashor was into biting?" Joseph joked and Aoi slapped his shoulder. "Oh I'm sorry, was that you." Aoi screamed and sent Joseph over the table and onto the floor. "Ow. Okay, I'll behave."

"No you won't, but it was nice to say." Aoi smiled. "Sorry, it still; makes me feel weird when people do that."

"Noted." Joseph rose to his feet.

"If you two are done. I'd rather get this going." AIzawa replied. "Powerloader is already making holes to block off any way of them escaping, other heroes are on site as well. Everyone ready to go?"

"Yeah." Ashor replied. "I know what I said about not wanting them dead, but if the alternative is people dying, just stop them however you can."

"You sure kid?" Azur asked, "We can always restrain them, Lady Izanami's orders are absolute. We have no plans on killing them."

"We would prefer not to make it a slaughter."

"Too bad, they sent us, they don't send one of us, let alone three, when they aren't expecting a blood bathe." Crim replied.

"We are heroes, we are not trying to kill people."

"Yet you expect people who permanently have Trigger through their veins are going to sit back and let you destroy their way of life?" Crim yawned. "Can we get going? I'm bored."

"While you are not under our orders, you working a legitimate job."

"Actually, you can't touch them." Ashor replied. "They work in the Forbidden Zone, so as long as they can get there, they are immune to the law. Too many government officials visited."

"Wait there is an area in Japan that can exist separate of the government?"

"Well Devil's Pacts being what they are." Azur replied. "So what about this area, why are the defenses so thin here?"

"Endeavor is covering that area, the map you see is only for where we are placing people. I can get you a full one later."

"So why are we here again?" Denchi yawned. "And where are the bigshots?"

"Well because of what these three are," Nezu sighed into his coffee. "You are working with them. Thankfully Kamui and Edgeshot have no problems with them coming with so the formation is the same."

"I mean we have nothing to do with this, we don't have the experience, and this is how so many people got injured last year, right?"

"Indeed, but Diemia is more than likely to go on that murderous spree and she wants Ashor's whole team, and since you signed the paper, you are now involved. We don't want to risk innocent people."

"But you will risk students."

"So...this Diemia."

"You can kill her." Ashor replied with no hesitation.

"Call!"

"Dammit!" Azur and Crim slammed their hands. "We get the next one."

"Did they just…" Joseph started

Ashor stopped him. "It is best to not try to make sense of them." Ashor sighed. "Izanami doesn't them half the time."

"Are we certain we should be listening to someone named after the goddess of the Underworld."

"Technically Susano is in charge of the netherworld in the shinto lore but that isn't important. What is important is that Ashor here needed her quirk for something, and we can't collect payment until this is done. SO we are helping so that we can get the payment and then leave."

"So when you help Izanami, do you get a favor as payment?" Aoi asked and all three laughed. "Hey! I honestly don't know…" Aoi whimpered.

"Sorry, no this is our job. We get to live in the shrine so we pay rent this way. 'Favors' are not something we want to be desperate enough to do."

"And the constantly killing things?"

"For some a hobby for others, just something we excel at. I can take a massive amount of damage before having to fall back. And despite how the armor looks metallic, it is insulated enough to not hurt me if Amber's lightning hits me and we all know where Crim got his name." Crim shrugged. "YOu know if you don't get whoever we are working with here, now, we are going to do this my way, and that involves killing everyone."

"We are ready to go. But it looked like Azur is still going over the information."

"I'm staring at the screen to try and figure out why you haven't attacked yet. Is there something in there we need to be worried for?"

"Nomu," Aizawa explained, "Multiquirk human experiments, braindead only follow orders."

"So Crim, but with one quirk."

"She's not wrong." Crim shrugged. "Let's get going."

The Complex was somewhere Ashor never wanted to see again. He even had plans to take a station on the other side of Japan, Now he stood staring at a place that he had viewed for the first 15 years of his life as a place of science, now he knew he it was a haven for the insane.

"Ashor?" Ayaka asked nervously, "Before we go in, can you tell us what happened? Why you ran, and why they started messing with Trigger. It has to be more than just curiosity. Curiosity doesn't make you inject drugs into yourself."

"Actually Diemia volunteered, and then her quirk of retaining knowledge became an obsession."

"Retaining knowledge?"

"Her quirk made the knowledge in her head evolve naturally. She learned about electronics and three days later was fixing the electronics in our house. She wanted to do more, to always be able to do whatever was needed, so she volunteered for Trigger. She figured it was going to be fine because of how strong her mind was already. Out of anyone in the family, she was the kindest. She volunteered so we wouldn't test on other humans."

"Animal tests aren't a thing?" Denchi asked

"Besides Nezu, how many animals do you know with quirks?" Ashor replied. "They were going to take humans. She volunteered instead, and the end result is the psychotic girl you fought, Ayaka."

"Hard to believe she was ever nice." Ayaka replied. "So it went learning passively to what?"

"She doesn't know anything about the inside of a human, so she started cutting things and experimenting on them. They are one of the few that keeps Nomu but isn't tied to the league. They don't have multiple quirks, but they are mindless and when we let them go they are told to hurt the nearest living thing besides us, so basically anything that can't be restrained will, sadly, have to be killed."

"And you knew about these experiments?" Ayaka asked, looking nervous.

"They were all volunteers so I didn't care, my job was to prepare the food and drink and check vitals. It wasn't until I was injected that I fled. Turns out the volunteers were told to sign in as volunteers when most of them were small time criminals wanting to be stronger, I don't think we were ever actually helping someone. Then the family went from testing Trigger to making super soldier and now they can kick out single quirk nomus almost by the week."

"Yesh, your family sucks." Ayaka replied and Ashor sighed and nodded. "Well we can see about how many we can save, truthfully, I want to save Diemia at least."

"This isn't the time for looking for more sparring partners. As much as I want them alive, it isn't realistic, most of them you can tell aren't even in there anymore. The closer we get to this, the less I want to do it, I don't want to do this." Ashor said, shutting his eyes. "I never wanted this. How many people are going to die from this?"

"You don't have to go." Crim replied, kneeling in front of Ashor. He hugged him gently. "Fighting your family is a terrible thing, something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. You stay, we can go."

"I'm sitting back while everyone else goes. Staying back is what cause Ayaka to get hurt. It was sheer luck that Ayaka didn't bleed out. I'm not leaving her behind."

"But you don't want to go either." Ayaka said sadly. "It wasn't your fault, Ashor, it was mine."

"Technically it was Diemia's for slicing you, just saying." Azur replied and was smacked on the back of the head by Amber. "Am I wrong?"

"Just because you are being truthful doesn't mean you have to say it." Amber scolded.

The students were ushered outside and loaded into cars, but instead of towards the Compound, they drove towards a large building with armed police outside of it. Standing outside the door was Edgeshot with bladed gauntlets and Kamui woods with Ibara. Ayaka trotted over to them and noticed the look Kamui gave her. Ayaka sighed and admitted that she was terrified, but if Ashor was going to fight, she had no excuse to stay safe. Kamui looked at both at them and then at Edgeshot. "Your call."

"I don't want them in the fight. Whether they want to go or not."

"Very well. I'm sorry you two."

"Edgeshot. I mean all of them. Last time I let them fight, one ended up injured. We can place them near the front, and have them ONLY fight Nomu, but I don't want them in that compound."

"Do we get a say in this?"

"Once you have a license." Edgeshot replied.
"This is a professional mission, so you can fight the nomu, we already set the terms for them. YOu fighting the Nomu is good enough for her. So it works for us. We were given a week. IN that time you need to figure out as much you can about your combat abilities. Because I don't want to test my luck against your sister."

I know this was a significantly shorter chapter, but I got a few projects to do for I'm going to go on haitus for a little, probably only a few weeks but i want to keep yall in the loop
