Chapter 4: Boss - Overhaul (Yakuza Base ACT 2)

(Minor Blood)

Silver threw the wall with as much power as he could muster. It flew with deadly speed, until it came to a halt in front of the man with the plague mask. The wall was broken into pieces, which were reformed into spears.

"Interesting. So that's what this little trinket can do."

"This will make purifying this disgusting world simpler." The spears went flying back to Silver, who put up a shield and blocked the incoming rocks. He tore two more pieces of the wall off, and sent them underground. He pulled out a third from the floor, and lobbed it to Overhaul. The villain stopped the rock again.

"The same move again? I expected more from you, he- Hrrgh!" Silver brought rocks back, and they slammed into Overhaul's side. Now that he was off balance, Silver took a hold of him, and threw as hard as he could, straight through multiple walls. The white hedgehog followed suit, and was almost clipped by sharp axes made of the walls.

He flew past multiple sharp rocks and medieval weapons, grabbing a few and sending them back to Overhaul. With a flick of a finger, they were destroyed, rebuilt, and sent back.

Damn it, this is getting us nowhere! I'll tire out before I can land another hit! He sent another few walls underground, and dragged them upwards. Before they could land, Overhaul elevated the ground below him, and remade the walls into giant axe blades. "Checkmate, child."

With deadly accuracy, the axes were flung toward Silver, who barely managed to put up a shield of psychic energy. The blades shattered, and Silver turned the shield into a blade, and sent it to Overhaul. The villain extended an arm, but nothing happened. Panicking, he made a half-baked shield of rock, easily sliced through and making a direct hit. Overhaul fell off his platform, but made another.

"It looks like you can only manipulate matter, not energy. Well, that's great news for me, but not for you!" Silver flung himself at Overhaul and slammed his fist in the villain's gut. He sputtered, and was sent flying. Propelling himself, Silver landed more blows, flew away and punched again and again and again and again.

"It also looks like you can't use your Quirk on living things. I would be dead otherwise!" Silver said, landing one more blow to the face. Silver flew back, and moved as fast as he could with his powers. It's not as fast as Sonic or Shadow, but it could definitely compete with them.

Overhaul let out a roar of defiance, and the cyan Emerald glowed brighter, as if reacting to his bloodlust. The wall turned into a plethora of concrete tentacles that raced towards Silver. Silver created a shield that surrounded him, and crashed into the tentacles, annihilating them completely. He crashed into Overhaul, sending them through another 5 five walls.

Pause

Silver floated gently as Overhaul tumbled on the floor, until he was laying on his back, defeated. The hedgehog took a deep breath, and steeled himself. He didn't know if he was playing dead. The Emerald was also hidden, but it was definitely on him. He could sense it. Gently, Silver picked up Overhaul and shook his body, trying to get the Emerald loose. When it started falling from his pocket, Silver tried to grab it with his powers…

Resume

Until Overhaul used Chaos Control to warp behind Silver. His hand grazed the golden bracelet on his wrist, and it exploded, the shrapnel making small cuts running across his front quills. Overhaul lunged again, missed and warped behind Silver continuously. "Face it kid, there's nothing in this world that can beat me. You're as good as dead!" Overhaul's hand gripped Silver's arm.

"Then it's a good thing I'm not from this world!" In a rage, Overhaul shouted and activated his Quirk, but nothing happened. Silver's lips curved into a sly smile. Examining the hedgehog closely, he realized he wasn't actually touching him; he was touching a shield of psychic energy. And his Quirk doesn't work on energy.

Silver infused his fist with psychic energy, and punched Overhaul in the mask, breaking it. The resulting shockwave caused the villain to fly into yet another wall. Having had enough, Overhaul roared at the top of his lungs, causing the Emerald to shine even brighter at a darker hue. The entire building cracked, and the surrounding stone formed into one massive spike, and was sent straight to Silver, breaking the sound barrier.

Silver, with all of his mental fortitude, stopped the spike inches away from his face.

"It's no use!"

Raising his hands, any debris left over from the fight floated straight to the spike, until it became a giant ball of rocks 25 meters [82 feet] wide, only held together by Silver's psychokinesis. Overhaul eyes widened in every emotion imaginable, from fear all the way to awe. "What the FUCK are you!?" The psychic hedgehog just smiled.

"TAKE THIS! METEOR SMASH!"

In desperation, Overhaul outstretched his hands to try to break the meteor apart. Unfortunately for him, it was moving too fast, and even worse, he couldn't pull it apart in time, even with the Emerald's power.

End Music

The meteor imploded, and Overhaul was covered in more than three tons of solid rock. Silver touched down on the ground, panting. He had the worst headache ever. Luckily, he managed to get this win before it set in comlpetely. Cheering slightly, he started pushing rocks aside as he started digging for Overhaul. Hopefully the rocks hadn't done too much damage, but if he made out with some minor (Major, please say it's major-No, bad Silver! Wishing pain on others is bad! But… he's objectively the worst person known to mankind, so it's fine! Probably) injuries, he wouldn't mind.

Once Silver uncovered Overhaul's face, he quickly removed the rest of the rumble from body. His hands were mangled badly, pieces of bone and flesh and rocks were sticking out his hands, while the rest of body was covered in scars, bruises, his own blood, and pebbles.

Looking at the wounds carefully, Overhaul needed to get his arms amputated, and even if they did recover, he probably wouldn't be able to use them ever again. So, all's well that ends well? A person like him is not, and will never be, worthy of the power he has.

He pushed Overhaul aside to reveal the Cyan Emerald. As Silver tenderly picked it up, he realized it was a darker hue than normal, most likely from Overhaul's desire to murder him. No matter, it'll only take a day with Sonic before it'll go back to it's normal color.

"Shadow, I got the Emerald, and probably demolished the entire base in the fight."

"Great. Let's go back then. And for the record, I destroyed more of the compound than you ever could."

"Did you make a giant ball of rocks-"

"FREEZE!" Instantly, Silver made a makeshift cover of rocks and stray pebbles, and immediately regretted it as his brain started pounding against his brain. He made a tiny hole in the rocks, and as he looked out, he saw the night sky. His fight with Overhaul was a lot more destructive than he thought. Or maybe it was Shadow's fault; he did use the Light Speed Dash.

Either way, he saw hundreds of police officers, each equipped with full riot gear. Not to mention the rather large number of heroes present as well. He saw Ryukyu, Gang Orca, Miruku-Ooo, is that Eraserhead?

"Deactivate your quirk and come out with your hands above your head!" A sultry female voice shouted. That was probably Midnight. Silver shuddered.

"Shadow, the cops are here!" Silver whispered, but all he got was static. Shadow was already back home. Oh well, Silver thought, as he nonchalantly used Chaos Control to warp back to their home. He imagined the heroes' look on their faces when they realized how quickly he got away.

Now Playing Reach for the Stars (Recolors) - 2:32

"We're gonna Reach for the Stars, tonight!"

Predictably, when Shadow returned home, Sonic was playing his music as loudly as possible. It was grating. While the music itself wasn't bad (it's actually quite good), Sonic trying to sing along hurts his ears. He had a voice, it just wasn't for singing.

But something was off today. Somebody was singing with him, a girl. He doubted he brought… What was her name? Kendo? Anyway, Shadow doubts he brought her here. Despite his… Well, everything, Sonic was fairly good at keeping secrets. This only left Eri.

Was Eri singing along with him? How? She was barely willing to open up earlier. What happened in the… Shadow checked the clock... Thirty minutes that he and Silver were gone (Thirty minutes, really? All this school was making them sloppy)?

I've got in my sight!

The colors feel so right!

Got my feet off the ground

I'll keep on running!

Oh, I can feel it now!

The colors all around!

Just take my hand

We're gonna Reach for the Stars

Just take a chance

We'll do it right again

(We're gonna Reach for the Stars)

Just take my hand

(Just take my hand)

We'll take a chance tonight!

Reach for the Stars!

Tonight!

Tonight…

Music End

Shadow stepped out of his room to see Eri smiling. It was a large grin, one that went from ear to ear. She looked like those years of abuse had never happened. She's happily munching on one of those strange foods Sonic brought over from Mexico, chilaquiles.

When she found Shadow, her smile got even brighter. "Hi Mr. Shadow! You want some chi-la-qwui-les?" She asked, picking up the plate and handing it to him. "No, but thank you for asking. Also, I might have failed to mention my name earlier, and for that I apologize. My name is Jiyukage Nezumi."

"No it's not, your name's Shadow the Hedgehog, the world's Ultimate Faker. Mr Sonic told me about how you guys are going to save the multiverse from bad guys. You're not going to be mad at him, are you?" God, that face. Shadow sighed. "No, you would have figured it out eventually. Although, how much about our… situation do you know about?"

Eri's smile faltered slightly. "Mr. Sonic told enough to know you need this." She put the plate down, and gave Shadow a hug. "I'm sorry Black Doom and Gerald were such big meanies to you." Shadow didn't know what to do, but it felt nice. On autopilot, he hugged her back.

"Did you get the Emerald yet?" Eri asked, breaking away from the hug. Shadow tried to speak, but voice didn't work for some reason. After clearing it, he said, "Yes, Silver should be here with the Emerald just about… now."

"Hey guys, what did I- Oo, are those chilaquiles?" Silver materialized in front of them. Before he could grab a few, Eri tackled him with a hug almost knocking him over. "I'm sorry Iblis was such a big meanie to you." Silver had the same reaction as Shadow did, but with more emotion. He almost looked like he was starting to tear up.

"Um… thanks, Eri." Silver looked at Shadow. "You wanna join in?" He asked. "No, I'm fine." Despite his protests, Silver dragged Shadow, wincing slightly, and formed a group hug.

*Click*

Shadow blinked, and saw Sonic holding his phone. "Oh man, I am so showing this to everybody when we get back home."

"Get back here FAKER!" Shadow started chasing Sonic around this house, quite literally, as the azure hedgehog cackled maniacally. Silver and Eri also shared a laugh themselves.

"So, how was your afternoon?" Eri smiled. It rivalved the sun in brightness and warmth as she started telling him about the day she had. The Cyan Emerald has already returned to it's normal hue.

Chaos Quirk: Recreate

The evolved form of Overhaul, when Overhaul is exposed to the power of a Chaos Emerald. Recreateallows Overhaul to disassemble and then reassemble any non-living thing within a 3 meter [10 feet] radius without touching the object. It also grants him telekinesis, but it only works on objects that he has used Recreateon, and if falls out his control, he cannot be used on that object until it has been under the effects of this quirk again. Recreatedoes not work on energy, as energy does not have mass. In order to use Recreateon living beings, Overhaul has to come into physical contact with the target. Overhaul is also capable of using the warping variation of Chaos Control only.
