First off, many thanks to those who reviewed this fic, I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the current story arc picks up where the last chapter left, in which Naegi and Kirigiri got into troubke as tbey were picked on by a rival biker gang which once had ties to Mondo Ohwada, and Kirigiri took he brunt and now they are entering a town just to get medical assistance, and soon they would learn that their troubles are just starting, and Naegi is forced to go into action. The action starts here so read on and enjoy!
At his house, Fuhito Kirigiri is sitting on his couch reading a newspaper, and he is glancing at the news to see if there is a case which he could lend his services to solve one, but hen he gets an uncomfortable feeling, and wondered wbat that feeling is just now, and felt that something may have happened to his granddaughter, and is considering calling her through cellphone, but decided not to as he might think that she would tell him not to worry, so he decided to resume what he is doing, hoping that his granddaughter would be okay, unaware that something bad DID happened to her.
"Kyoko...please be careful..."

At Hope's Peak Acadeny, Jin Kirigiri at his office working on some documents, and he too sensed an uncomfortable feeling as he felt that something has happened, and there he glanced at a picture frame where the picture shows him carrting a young and smiling Kirigiri at a family affair, and wondered if this is the cause of the uncomfortable feeling, and is considering calling her but then the assistant principal came and brought with him several documents that Jin requested to bring.
"Principal Kirigiri..."
"Yes...?"
"Here are the documents..."
"Thanks..."
"We have a board meeting..."
"I see..."
"Let's go..."
"Okay..."
Jin and the assistant principal then leaves the office and attend a board meeting and Jin hoped that the feeling he felt is just a speculation, not knowing that his daughter had already encountered danger at Mt. Fuji, and the trouble is only beginning for her and Naegi.
Believe It Or Not by Joey Scarbury
(Opening Song from The Greatest American Hero)
Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself;
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
Should've been somebody else.
Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.
Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true.
Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.
Ch. 66: Hitojichi ni Tora Remasu
At the highway of Mt. Fuji, the scene shows that the car is cruising in a cautious way as Naeginis driving the car and is being coached by Kirigiri, and since Naegi never had a driving lesson before, it was difficult for him to control the car in a highway and had to navigate himself and his friend while looking for a nearby town to find a clinic where there would be a doctor that could check on Kirigiri's condition after their encounter with the Psycho Sapphire Gang, and Kirigiri is fighting the pain on her ribcage while checking the map, which is quite difficult for her and he asks her if she is okay.
"Are you okay...?"
"..."
"Kirigiri-san...?"
"I'm...okay..."
"But..."
"Focus on...driving..."
"But..."
"Please..."
By then a passing tow truck happened to be at the scene where two men, an elderly one and the other in his 40's, and they saw the two teens and sensed that something is wrong so they tried to talk to them and asks if they need some assistance, in which Naegi took the chance to ask for their help seeing that they might know where a nearby clinic is. The two men are identified as Mater and Filmore, and there the two men are surprised to see that they encountered underaged teens.
"Wow...teenagers..."
"Need help, kids?"
"Yeah...do you know a nearby clinic...my friend is hurt a d we were mugged by biker gangsters and..."
"Whoa...she looked hurt...Mater..."
"Got this one...Filmore...you drive...I will lead the way..."
"Gotcha...kid...I'll do the driving...you assist the lady...
"Thanks..."
"No problem..."
Filmore then boarded the car and serve as the driver so Naegi can assist the injured Kirigiri, while Mater leads the car towards a town where there is a clinic, and Filmore asks what happened, in which Naegi answered him and Filmore said that he and Mater happened to know someone who can help her and said that right now its best that the two teens would stay out of the road for now as he had a feeling that the biker gang that the two teens encountered may be the same ones that they feared. After several minutes, they arrived at a clinic and the two adults assisted in taking Kirigiri inside, and once there, they are greeted by an elderly doctor who is running the clinic, and Mater told him how he and Filmore found the two teens.
"Seriously?"
"Yeah..."
"Those bastards are back...and they even attacked those kids..."
"Lucky we passed by and saw them..."
"You did the right thing...I'll take over from here...yountwo should get going..."
"You sure, doc?"
"Yes."
"Okay..."
The doctor of the clinic is identified only as Doc Hudson, and there he called his assistant nurse and told her to take Kirgiri inside and told Naegi to wait here which Naegi did, and by then Mater and Filmore left and after several minutes Doc Hudson came out and spoke to Naegi, telling him that Kirigiri's injuries aren't serious and her ribcage is only bruised and said that she shouldn't strain herself and offered the two teens to stay over for the day, and Naegi told him about their encounter with the biker gang, and Doc Hudson became seriously concerned.
"Looks like you ran into some bad luck, kid..."
"Why?"
"You just ran into some bad gangsters..."
"Really..."
"Yes...you two are lucky you managed to get here...those bikerr gang normally leave their victims onntje road to die..."
"No way..."
"Yes...thise biker gang is the worst svum on the country..."
"..."
Doc Hudson told Naegi that the biker gang they encountered are the Psycho Sapphire Gang, and they were the biggest headache of Route 2016, in which they harassed many motorists and the townsfolk of this town, and the town's sheriff narrowly chased the biker gang away several months ago, but now that they are here, they are going to cause more trouble and now he will have to contact the sheriff to inform him that the Psycho Sapphire Gang are back and he would call an emergency meeting to have the townsfolk ready to defend themselves while calling the highway patrol team.
As Doc Hudson leaves the clinic and told the two teens to stay here, Naegi went to the recovery room where Kirigiri is sitting on the bed, slowly putting on her blouse and Naegi saw her ribs taped and bandaged and asks her if she is okay, but Kirigiri said she overheard what the doctor said and told Naegi that if what Doc Hudson said is true, then the highway patrol team would be too late to arrive deducing that the Psycho Sapphire woild get a head start in hiding, and once the highway patrol team leaves town, the biker gang would return and assault the town and may harm more people there she told Naegi to get ready and leave Mt. Fuji and get help.
"...that is what you should do now, Naegi-kun..."
"Eh? I can't leave you here!"
"I'll be fine..."
"You stay here...I will go find those bikers..."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah...I'm going yo use IT."
"Naegi-kun..."
"You're hurt...please rest...leave this to me..."
Naegi made up his mind, and she sighed seeing that she couldn't persuade himmto get help and Naegi went outside to get the red suit and changed outfit while inside the car, then left the clinic and Kirigiri sneaked her way out of the clinic and boarded the car and drives off and went back to the scene where she arrived at the spot where she and Naegi first encountered the biker gang. About 20 minutes later, Naegi arrived, and he is dismayed to see her here but she told him to keep his radio open as she will look around to find clues, and there she saw motorcycle tire tracks and skid marks on the road, and they followed it until they saw the side of the freeway where the tire tracks are seen, and she guessed that the biker gang can be anywhere and she stopped the car and parked, where she is formulating a plan on where to find the biker gang's location and spring a surprise attack and disable them.
"But Kirigiri-san..."
"It is fine..."
"But..."
"Leave it to me..."
"Seriously..."
"Never underestimate a detective..."
"..."

While the two teens are planning ahead, the scene shifts to a nearby barn where the Psycho Sapphire Gang are there, having overtaken the place and made it their base, and there Daiya is still recalling on how Kirigiri stood up to him and couldn't get over the fact that a girl had the guts to face him, and he felt his manhood insulted, but then he had another reason why he is so riled up, and that is due to the sheriff managing to chase him and his gang out of Route 2016, and he swore revenge against the sheriff for the humiliation he got, and Wingo and DJ tried to console him and assured that they will get the last laugh against the sheriff.
"Don't feel bad, boss..."
"Yeah..."
"We'll get that stinking sheriff..."
"And we will help you!"
"That's right!"
"Just say the word!"
"And we will do it!"
"Yeah!"
Daiya is pleased by his men's words and his morale raised, but then noticed that Snot Rod is nowhere here, in which the others think that he strayed out on his own or maybe doing some recconaisance, and they are sure that he would be back with good news.
Back at the other scene, Snot Rod happened to pass by and saw the two teens, though he is eyeing Naegi seeing him wearing the red suit and cape, and he took out his I-Phone and began recording the scene as he believe that this would be a good source of info, but the next minute Snot Rod gasped as he saw Naegi running then jumped into the air and flew until he is out of sight, and this spooked him and hurriedly leaves the scene and minutes later he went back to the barn and showed to Daiya the footage he recorded, and Daiya is in a state of disbelief at what he saw.
"What the hell? How did that..."
"It's no joke, boss! I saw the kid fly like a bird!"
"You got to be kidding me..."
"I swear...it's no special effect that I saw..."
"Damn..."
"What are we going to do, boss...?"
"..."
"..."
Wingo, however, came up with a good idea, saying that perhaps the suit that Naegi is wearing is what made Naegi do those feats and suggested that they steal it, which Daiya finds it enticing and wondered how to pull it off, and Snot Rod said that they can use Kirigiri as a hostage and told him where she is, and Daiya hatches a plan on what to do next.
-x-
Back at the highway, Naegi landed at another side of the road and so far he hasn't found any sign of the Psycho Sapphire Gang, and moves to another location by jumping and flying, and after a minute he landed and still hasn't found anything and he then contacted Kirigiri through the radio and told her that he hasn't found any traces of the biker gang, and she offered some suggestions, in which he would tell her that it may not work for now.
"Sorry...I still have no control over the suit yet..."
"You should have used your free time to..."
"You know I can't...not in public or in front of my parents and neighbors...!"
"Then try concentrating..."
"If only if there is an object I could find..."
"Seriously...?"
"Yes..."
"Okay...let's try...UUUNNNFFFF!"
Naegi told Kirgiri that he still hasn't gotten control over the holographic image and he can only get a VIBE if he is holding an object connected to the biker gang, but then the scene shiws that some of the members of the Psycho Sapphire Gang grabbed Kirgiri and Daiya took the radio and called Naegi, telling him to show up, in which Naegi is alarmed and concerned and shouted to Daiya not to lay a finger on her which Daiya mocked the teen.
"Want to save the bitch? Then come to papa..."
"Damn you!"
"Come on...I'm waiting..."
"If you hurt her again..."
"And what if I do...?"
"..."
"Better hurry up...I don't have time to waste..."
"..."
Naegi began to run towards the scene using the red suit's super speed, running through hill after hill, all he could think about is Kirigiri's safety and wondered how the biker gang know where Kirigiri is and he started to regret leaving her alone, and in a matter of minutes Naegi arrived, where the car is gone and Daiya and some of his men are there, and they are waiting for Naegi to arrive, and there he demanded to Daiya where Kirigiri is, which he mocked him and ordered his men to grab the teen, but Naegi slowly overpowered the goons and Wingo noticed that the suit is giving Naegi strength, which made Daiya attracted to such a power, and made his next move, in which he told his men to stop and told Naegi that he surrender, in which he refused.
"I won't!"
"You won't...?"
"Where is Kirigiri-san?!"
"Look here, pipsqueak...I'm in charge here...so I make the order here..."
"Let...her...go..."
"So...looks like I'll have to do this the hard way...
"What...?"
"Wingo..."
Seeing that Naegi is defiant, he radioed Wingo and told him to torture Kirigiri, and the scene shifts to another area where Kirigiri is handcuffed and Snot Rod, who is quite the muscle of the gang, trapped her in a bearhug and squeezes her, particularly on her injured ribcage, and she screamed in pain, and there Naegi told Daiya to stop, and Daiya said he would if Naegi agree to his term, and Naegi is now trapped as he is forced to do the Psycho Saphhire Gang's bidding, and the Psycho Diamond Gang cheered in triumph as they now have a secret weapon in their hands as Daiya smirked wickedly as he has plans laid out for him and his biker gang.

At a warehouse somewhere in Tokyo, the scene shifts inside where it is shown that the warehouse is housing a lot of weapons, mostly bladed weapons, and they appeared to br stored, stocked and ready to be sold to any client who are willing to match the price, and the scene shifts further inside, where a young man, who appeared to be in his early 20's, and he appeared to be the one running the syndicate, and he is seen as a person a man with a tall, lean build. He has pale blonde hair, sharp brown eyes, pale skin and a serious expression. He wears a red trench coat, and is identified as Sonosuke Izayoi, and the scene shows that Sonosuke wears dark red finger-less gloves, baggy black pants and dark brown boots. It's also stated there is a multitude of weapons hidden in his coat. It is slowly revealed that Sonosuke used to be a student at Hope's Peak Academy a few years ago until an unspecified incident led to his expulsion, and now he has nothing else to do except use his talents to make a living, and now he uses his talents to run an illegal weapons sale.
By then one of his henchmen came and told him that there is a potential buyer who is interested in buying his weapons, which Sonosuke nodded and told his goon to have the prospect see him at once so that he can show him his items and secure a transaction so that he can sell his weapons.
"Bring him to me..."
"Anything else?"
"See if he is alone...and let me know if he's an undercover cop or not..."
"What if he is?"
"Leave it to me..."
"Okay..."
"Now hurry up..."
"You got it, boss..."
