BTW, Izuku already has his quirk in this mini arc. So yeah.
Friendly reminder that I'm only updating on Sundays from now on. Unless something changes again. Thank you for understanding.
The villains' arrival was signalled with candy spilling all over the floor.
"That was so much fun!" Toga giggled, happily scooping pieces of candy off of the floor. She skipped her way to her usual barstool, picking up candy as she went.
"I can't believe the best plan you had was to make a freaking haunted house, Shiggy." Dabi hummed, sticking a watermelon-flavored Dum-Dum into his mouth. "All of that for some brat."
"Not just any brat." Shigaraki growled. "It's Sensei's kid."
"Really?" Spinner asked, looking at the child he was holding. Izuku wasn't crying just yet. Spinner carefully wiped away the leftover tears from the house.
Kurogiri nodded beginning to pull out glasses from the bar and make the villains' favorite drinks. "It's true. Boss told us to get his kid back, no matter the cost."
Izuku wriggled around in Spinner's arms. "Down!" he demanded. Spinner looked at Shigaraki for permission, and the childish adult nodded his assent, muttering for Spinner to keep the brat away from him.
"I thought All for One was still in Tartarus?" Dabi asked.
"He is." Kurogiri confirmed. "But our infiltrators have managed to communicate with him undetected."
Izuku toddled around, picking up and inspecting each candy closely, before putting each one back down on the ground. He continued doing this until he picked up a gummy Lifesaver, and taking the candy over to Dabi. He tugged on the adult's coat, getting his attention.
"Open, please?" Izuku asked, holding the candy up to Dabi. Dabi hesitated for a second, then took the candy, removed the wrapper, and handed the candy back to the toddler. Izuku plopped his butt down there, nibbling on the gummy. Dabi set the wrapper on fire (Izuku stared entranced at the blue flames).
Toga "aww"-ed at the scene. "He's so cute!" she squealed. "I want to drink his blood!"
"No." Shigaraki growled. "Sensei would flay us alive if his son is injured."
"Dabi burned him that one time." Twice remembered.
"I'm not afraid of that old man." Dabi snapped. "My own dad is worse. Besides, Shiggy told me to do it."
"Don't call me that!" Shigaraki yelled.
Dabi opened his mouth to yell back, but paused when his phone vibrated. He smiled at it, reading the message on the screen.
Shigaraki scowled. "Don't ignore me, you burnt chicken nugget."
Toga bounced excitedly. "Is that your mystery boyfriend, Dabi?"
Dabi glanced up from his typing, scowling. "I don't have a boyfriend. I'm not gay."
"Oh no, he's in denial." Twice gasped. "He's telling the truth!"
"Tell us who he is, Dabi!" Toga tried to steal the phone from him.
"Uh-uh, no way am I telling you guys." Dabi quickly locked his phone and held it high over Toga's head.
Izuku finished his candy and stood to find another suitable piece. He found another gummy by Kurogiri's feet, and held it up for the man to open. Kurogiri took it and Izuku grabbed onto his pant leg while he waited patiently.
"I expected, I dunno, crying or something," Spinner said as he sat at the bar next to Shirgaraki. "Why is this so easy?"
"Gimme that," Shigaraki said, swiping the candy from Kurogiri. He pressed five fingers to the candy, fully intending to reduce the thing to ashes, but nothing happened, strangely. Shigaraki lifted one finger and reapplied it. No change. His gaze drifted to the little brat.
Kurogiri's pants were disintegrating from where Izuku's hand had been gripping. Izuku's other hand was stretched out toward his candy, and, subsequently, Shigaraki.
"Give me my quirk back, you little brat." Shigaraki snarled.
Izuku jumped at the harsh tone. His hands were not longer holding onto anything, and there was now a rather large hole in Kurogiri's pants.
Izuku's eyes filled with tears and he let out a quiet whine.
Shigaraki snapped and lunged over the bar, reaching for Izuku.
Kurogiri quickly warped Shigaraki to his room. He looked at Spinner with exasperation in his eyes. "Why would you jinx it?"
Izuku let out a tiny wail as he tried to grab onto Kurogiri's bare leg. Kurogiri saw it coming and quickly put a portal in the way, and Izuku's hands harmlessly passed through.
"Child, you would do well not to kill us." Kurogiri said.
Shigaraki's scream from his room could be heard quite clearly in the bar. Izuku made a face and stuck out his tongue, and Shigaraki promptly fell through the roof. Tiny pieces of ash softly fell from the new hole in the ceiling.
Dabi and Toga were cackling from where they were lurking.
"Well, everyone go pack their stuff. We need to leave, the heroes already know where the bar is from rescuing the Bakugou boy." Kurogiri collected their glasses. "I hope you enjoyed your break."
Shigaraki pushed himself off the floor. "I'm the boss, Kurogiri."
Izuku calmly chewed on his gummy candy.
No rescue yet. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter!
