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 Pachinko is making a move to go after Naegi, intent on exposing him, but in the process others will be dragged in.
Well then, read on and enjoy!
After that, Naegi took his leave, and is walking back the streets en route to Hope's Peak Academy, and there he is walking beside a female senior citizen and the woman began chatting with Naegi seeing him as a nice boy and Naegi began reciprocating the compliments, until a snatcher came past them and grabbed the woman's purse and ran off, and Naegi is pissed at this and dropped the books to go after the snatcher, and there Pachinko saw this and told the driver to go after Naegi, saying this is the chance to prove that Naegi is the SUPER GUY.
"There he goes! After him!"
"Uh…okay."
"Do we kill him?"
"Not yet! We're going to prove that the kid is the SUPER GUY!"
"Huh?"
"What?"
"You heard me! Drive faster!"
"Uh…okay…"
The other two goons glanced at each other and sweat-dropped seeing that their boss is acting rather obsessive towards Naegi, and they began to make wild guesses, and they begin to wonder if Pachinko developed a fetish towards younger boys and even assume that their boss has become a homosexual which Pachinko heard it and aimed his gun at the two, dismissing the claims and threatening them if they make another wild accusation towards him.
"What was that?"
"EEEKK!"
"WHOA!"
"I'm not gay, you hear?!"
"Y-yes…"
"W-we got it!"
"I'm after that kid because he sent me to jail and I want revenge on him! And I will prove that he's the SUPER GUY! GET IT?!"
"Y-yes, we got it!"
"Ease up with the gun, boss!"
Pachinko then told the driver not to lose sight of Naegi as the chase between Naegi and the snatcher is ongoing and he is sure that Naegi would reveal himself as the SUPER GUY so as to prove to his men that the SUPER GUY is real and then he will get his revenge on the Luckster, then at Kirigiri, so as to get JUSTICE for the humiliation he got six months ago.
"Don't lose sight of that kid!"
"Okay…"
"There…"
"…"
"Keep focusing…"
"Yes, boss…"
"There…stay hidden…"
"…"
The driver sighed as he followed Naegi via the car as he too wondered why his boss is so fixated at Naegi, while the two goons asks Pachinko why is he so insistent in going after Naegi, which Pachinko said that he will prove that Naegi is the SUPER GUY and will prove it to Japan so that the people will believe him and not brand him as a CRAZY GUY, which the two goons said that still don't believe that a plain boy like Naegi would be the SUPER GUY.
"Huh?"
"That kid?"
"A…SUPER GUY…?"
"For real?"
"You must be under the sun, boss…"
"There's no way…"
"Yeah, that's so fake."
"I agree…"
Pachinko sighed and told his men to be patient as he will soon prove his point as the car is secretly following Naegi as the teen boy us still chasing the snatcher, which reached the other side of the street.
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. 106: Rachi
The scene shifts to the street where the snatcher is still running away with Naegi in pursuit, and he is determined to catch him and return the bag to the owner, and there Naegi screamed to the bystanders to stop the guy by shouting that the guy is a snatcher, which worked as the onlookers attempted to stop him but the snatcher managed to evade them and got away further, until Naegi saw a passing motorcycle rider and asks the rider for help.
"Excuse me!"
"Huh?"
"I need your help!"
"Me?"
"I got to catch a snatcher!"
"Okay, hop in!"
"Thanks!"
"…"
With the rider's help, Naegi was able to pin down the snatcher, and soon the owner came along with the police, and the snatcher is arrested, the bag returned, and Naegi left as he heads back to the academy along with the books, and not far behind, Pachinko was dumbfounded at seeing Naegi not changing into his red suit and his goons began questioning if Naegi is a threat to their mafia or not, seeing that Naegi is just an ordinary kid.
"…"
"Boss…"
"Looks like your theory is wrong…"
"…"
"Just ease up, boss…"
"Yeah. Maybe that kid isn't what you think…"
"…"
"Boss…?"
Pachinko reiterated that Naegi is really a threat and that he assured to them that Naegi should be eliminated but wanted to prove to them that he is the SUPER GUY, and once proven, then he will take him down, and for now, he told the driver to move out as he did not want to be seen that would put his parole at risk, and the limousine left as more policemen arrived, and neither the police or Naegi noticed this and as the minutes passed, Naegi is at the gates of Hope's Peak Academy, and the limousine is outside, and Pachinko is watching Naegi's move, and he is hatching a plan on how to expose the teen and then prove to his men that Naegi is the SUPER GUY, which his assistant sweat-dropped at seeing his boss getting obsessed over the Luckster.
"Boss…"
"…"
"You should give it up…"
"…"
"There's no way that the kid is…"
"…"
"Are you listening, boss?"
"…"
Pachinko ignored him as his sight is focused on Naegi, and when Naegi entered the academy, Pachinko was forced to tell the driver to have the limousine leave as they head back to their hideout, as he is hatching a plan to get even at Naegi, feeling restless and anxious to get even at him for the humiliation he got from the boy six months ago.
-x-
Inside the academy, Naegi arrived at the Vice-Principal's office and gave him the items, and the vice-principal noticed Naegi's clothes is quite disshelved and a bit dirty, and he asks him what happened, in which Naegi told him the encounter he had earlier and said that he had to help in stopping the snatcher, and the vice-principal nodded at this and is quite relieved to see that the Luckster is safe and unharmed, and cautions him to be careful.
"I see…"
"And that is all, sir."
"That's good to hear."
"Um…"
"All that matters is that you are safe and sound."
"Yeah."
"You may go now."
"Thank you, sir."
Naegi nodded and bowed as he left the office and heads back to the classroom and when he arrived, it was break time, and there his classmates greeted him and they commented at the appearance he has, seeing that Naegi appeared to have gotten into a scuffle and asks him what happened, and there he told his classmates what happened during his errand, and they were quite impressed at what he did though they told him to be careful next time as he may not get so LUCKY next time.
"You stopped a snatcher?"
"Whoa!"
"That's a real man, Naegi!"
"Are you sure you are not hurt?"
"Didn't you get a warning?"
"What else happened?"
"Did you get a reward?"
"…"
After a few minutes, a teacher arrived and classes resumed, and Naegi took his seat and classes commenced, and after a few more hours classes has ended and it was dismissal time, and everyone left the academy, and Naegi and Maizono were seen walking together and they began to chat as they are holding hands, which the two are smiling, not noticing that several Paparazzi photographers are passing by and saw the two teens, and they felt that they found a scoop to post on their tabloid newspapers believing that a popular idol is going out with a plain boy.
"Look!"
"That's Maizono the idol!"
"And she's holding hands with a plain boy!"
"What a scoop!"
"And that means more gossip!"
"Get the cameras ready!"
"Oh boy!"
"Yee-hah!"

Meanwhile, the scene shifts to an area within Tokyo, where Kirigiri is standing outside a one-story establishment as her investigation led her here, and she had a feeling that Pachinko is there doing some illegal activities and she sneaked inside, and upon entering, her eyes narrowed seeing that there is an activity going on, but not what she expected, seeing that inside there is a worshipping program happening, and saw Pachinko doing a ministry program, "preaching" to the visitors inside, and Kirigiri is still suspicious at this until a female visitor passed by and asks if she is here to attend the program, which she politely decline.
"Yes, miss?"
"Huh?"
"Are you here to attend a worshipping activity?"
"No."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"I see. You know, Mr. Pachinko is really an evangelical person."
"…"
Kirigiri then left as she is not convinced that Pachinko is a changed man and she is sure that this is merely a cover for his illegal activities and intend to keep an eye on him just to be sure, as she is certain that Pachinko is planning something just to get even at her and Naegi, and as she left, some of Pachinko's men saw her, and they are unsure whether to follow her or not, but decided to let her go for now as trailing her might blow Pachinko's cover.
"Are you sure?"
"Yep."
"But what if she…?"
"I doubt it. Besides, if we go after her the boss' cover will be blown."
"…"
"So let's just leave her."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
-x-
Later that night, Pachinko is told about what his men saw, and told his men they did the right thing in letting Kirigiri go for now, and there he told his men that tomorrow they have an assignment, in which he instructed them to find the SUPER GUY and bring him here at the hideout, and told them that the SUPER GUY is a teenager and said that he must be captured no matter what, which the goons nodded confidently, seeing that this is an easy task.
"Sure!"
"Leave it to us!"
"It'll be easy."
"A piece of cake."
"We'll get the job done!"
"And we mean it!"
"So don't worry!"
"It'll be over."
"As in soon."
"Ditto!"
By then the group retired for the night as they have an assignment to carry out tomorrow, and there they went to sleep as Pachinko is looking forward to face Naegi and make him pay for what he did to him six months ago, as well as to expose Naegi as the SUPER GUY so he has something to prove to his men and that they'll be convinced that he is not crazy.

The next day, the scene shifts at a bookstore in downtown Tokyo, where you can see the Yamada siblings are there, and Fujiko is telling her embarrassed sibling that it is okay as he is just promoting her manga, as Yamada is dressed as CAPTAIN CHAOS, which he is wearing a white racing tracksuit, boots, a 1940 pilot cap and goggles, along with a red cloak, and he asks Fujiko why she has to get him to be the mascot, in which she said that this would entice manga fans to buy her manga, as the manga is slowly becoming a hit commodity for readers and fans.
"Good, good…"
"Nee-san…"
"What?"
"Do I have to?"
"Yes."
"But…"
"The manga is hitting off…and I need someone to entice the readers…and you fit the bill."
"Eh…?"
Fujiko then told her brother to relax as she went inside to talk to the owner, and Yamada reluctantly began to sell the manga copies, and to his surprise, manga fans, mostly elementary students, began flocking and lined up just to buy the manga. Not far, the goons are there and saw Yamada wearing the Captain Chaos outfit, and they appeared to misunderstood what Pachinko instructed them to do, as they believed that he is the one they are told to bring to their boss.
"Look…"
"Is that…?"
"Must be him."
"That's the SUPER GUY…?"
"Could be."
"A suit…a belt…a cape…fits the description."
"So then…"
"Let's roll."
The goons then went to work as the limousine began moving slowly and approached Yamada, as he had just sold the manga copies and went inside to give to his sister the money he collected, and in turn, she gives him more copies to sell, and when Yamada stepped out, the goons approached him, aimed their guns at him and stealthily held him at gunpoint and dragged him inside the car, dropping the manga copies and the limousine speeds away, and a terrified Yamada asks what is going on and what do they want with him.
"Wh-what…?"
"Not a move."
"We want you. And our boss wants you."
"But…but…"
"Shut up."
"We mean it."
"We'll impress our boss that we got the SUPER GUY."
"And he'll be proud of us."
To Be Continued... .
Hope you liked this chapter, as Pachinko is totally obsessed with Naegi, wanting to expose him as the one with the red suit, but so far had little success.
And his men appeared to be inept as they mistook Yamada as the SUPER GUY. Looks like trouble is up ahead.
