Izuku and the bird villains are staring each other down. He can already tell this one is going to hurt. He tells himself he can take it.
"So before we got started, I'm Ketsuiki." says Izuku.
"I'm Kendo Rappa." says Rappa.
"Tengai." says Tengai.
"Well, I'd say it's nice to meet both of you but you seem like pieces of shit and I want to kick both of your asses." says Izuku.
" It's kinda funny how that works out, 'cuz I wanna kick your ass too." says Rappa.
"Well ain't that just crazy." says Izuku
"And if ya don't mind, I'm gonna start that right now." says Rappa.
"As a matter of fact, I do." says Izuku.
Before Izuku can say anything else Rappa is right in front of him throwing a flurry of punches. Izuku blocks but they still send him flying. He manages to land on his feet and brings his arms back up. He moves back towards Rappa. He makes sure he keeps his distance. If Rappa catches him head on he's in trouble. He looks to Tengai and finds him just standing in the back watching. His musing gets cut short by Rappa throwing another Barrage of punches that he has to jump back from. He dashes back in as fast as he can Rappa throws a barrage of punches but this time Izuku jumps over him and tries to punch him in the head. He feels his fist connect, but not with Rappa. He looks down and sees a translucent barrier blocking his punch. Now he knows what Tengai is doing. As soon as he lands he dashes for Tengai only to find a barrier surrounding him on all sides. He jumps back once more as Rappa puts himself between Izuku and Tengai.
"You really gonna let shield boy protect ya? Ya can't take a hit can ya, pussy?" asks Izuku
"The hell I can't. Tengai, quit makin' shields. I fuckin got this." says Rappa.
"Are you sure?" asks Tengai.
"Hell yes I'm sure. He's fast as hell dodgin' my shit like that. I wanna go with guy." says Rappa excitedly.
Izuku looks back at the seating area he was eating at, runs towards it and grabs a chair. He proceeds to throw said chair at Rappa as hard as he could. Rappa sends his fists towards the chair and sends it flying back.
"So that's it huh? You don't have super strength. You just punch real hard. If you had super strength you've caught the chair." says Izuku.
"You're smart too? You really are something. Ya know that?" asks Rappa.
"I do know that." says Izuku.
Rappa comes back in swinging at Izuku but instead of dodging Izuku grabs both of Rappa's arms. Rappa can only move his arms forwards, he can't break Izuku's grip. Izuku tries to knee Rappa in the stomach but he gets blocked by Tengai's barriers again. He throws Rappa's arms to the side and knocks him off balance while trying to punch him in the chest. When that doesn't work Rappa swings at him and Izuku catches it. This time Izuku decides the best course of action is to spin and throw him. Once Rappa is out of the way he lunges for Tengai he sends a series of scattered punches looking for a hole in his barrier. He has to jump back due to Rappa getting back up. He isn't getting anywhere, he needs to finish it soon. He's still hurt all over from his fight with overhaul, although he'd never admit he's in pain. If he runs he's almost certain he'll run straight into a barrier. He doesn't want to kill either of them but he knows shooting is his only way out either that or talking his way out.
"You two really make an annoying combo." says Izuku.
"Well that's just not my fault. Tengai won't stop with the shields. It's his damn fault. He won't stop." says Rappa.
"You really don't seem like you belong in the Yakuza. What are you even doin' with this guy?" asks Izuku in an effort to buy some time for Dabi, Toga, and Eri to get away.
"I'm only here so I can go toe to toe with overhaul." says Rappa.
"Ya like fighting?" asks Izuku.
"I love it. There is nothing in this world more chivalrous than fighting. I worked my way through fighting rings. If someone can't fight back there is no point in fighting. It's just a slaughter at that point. One on one Death matches are the only way for someone like me to live or die." says Rappa.
"For someone who talks about chivalry in such high regard, you sure are a bitch." says Izuku.
"How's that?" asks Rappa.
"Fighting two on one, like a bitch. Even with Eri. It's an entire fuckin' Yakuza vs. a five maybe six year old girl who just want to live a happy life. You talked about not fighting people who can't fight back, cuz that's exactly what you're doing. You gotta be a real dumb fuck to preach about chivalry while taking the Yakuza's side in that fight." says Izuku.
"To be honest, What Overhaul does to that girl disgusts me." says Rappa.
"Then do something about it. You've got all this power and you just watch that shit happen. Your disgusting." says Izuku.
Rappa actually looks like he's considering what Izuku tells him. Which Izuku wasn't expecting at all. Rappa opened his mouth to speak but was cut off.
"Rappa don't listen to him. "Says Tengai, "He's saying this because he's scared. He's losing. You are going to beat him."
"I'd rather beat him on my own. Quit with the shields. I really mean it this time. If I see a single barrier, I'm gonna stop fighting." says Rappa.
"Fine, just go beat him." says Tengai.
Rappa and Izuku charge back in. Izuku needs to finish this. He tore his stitches jumping around. Rappa was slowly pushing Izuku back. Izuku took one large step back and felt his foot hit something. It was a barrier. Rappa didn't see it. Izuku was falling. He had less than a second to throw his arms up to block a punch. Without footing he got sent flying. He hit the ground on the other side of the parking lot with a thud. He rose to his feet and stared Rappa down.
" Alright, I'm done." says Rappa.
"What?" asks Izuku.
"You're bleeding." says Rappa.
"Yeah?" says Izuku.
"I didn't hit you hard enough to cut you open. You're fighting hurt aren't you?" asks Rappa.
Izuku doesn't respond. He can keep going, it doesn't hurt.
"I'm done fighting you. I really am sorry by the way." says Rapp.
Izuku smells smoke.
"What for?" asks Izuku.
"We aren't the only group looking for Eri." says Rappa.
"Rappa!" Shouts Tengai.
Izuku turns around to see smoke and blue cinders floating through the air a couple of blocks away.
"Shit." shouts Izuku as he runs towards Dabi's fire.
A barrier pops up to stop him. Izuku whips around and fires of two shots at Tengai, who puts up a barrier to stop the bullets. By this time Izuku had got past the barrier and was on his way towards the fight. One word keeps flashing through Izuku's mind as he runs, that word is fuck. When he turns the corner and looks into the alley he sees Toga on the ground with blood pooling by her head, Dabi shooting fire at a villain who seems to be made of some sort of crystal l and a villain holding a sword, a third villain was coming at Dabi from the side, and Eri was behind Dabi stiff as a board as he fought to keep them back. Izuku dashes toward the villain that is flanking Dabi and slams into him with his shoulder. Dabi looks at Izuku with wide eyes.
"Cover me." says Izuku as he darts towards the villains.
He smashes his fist into the crystal man, slides back to dodge the woman's katana. He recognizes katana girl. He knows he can't use a gun or she'll pull it towards herself. The third villain can bite through just about anything or at least Izuku's pretty sure that's what he can do. So Tabe can bite through anything, Hojo who can coat himself in crystals, and Setsuno who can pull weapons towards herself. Hojo swings at him and he ducks under it and shoves Hojo into Setsuno.
"Stay behind Dabi." says Izuku to Eri.
He didn't check to see if Eri would respond. He slammed his fist into Hojo and sends him staggering back. Izuku jumps into the air and Dabi takes his chance to shoot his fire under Izuku and into the villains. Hojo managed to take the brunt of the attack for his partners but was covered in scorch marks.
"I swear to god, if any of you hurt Eri I'm gonna bite your fucking throats out." shouts Izuku .
Hojo and Izuku rush each other again. Izuku's getting tired. He's been going without a major break for hours. Today and yesterday feel like years for Izuku. So when he finally lands a solid hit directly into Hojo's face, sends him across the alley and knocks him out he feels real damn good about himself. His good feeling gets completely shattered, much like the glass bottle he heard break against Dabi's head. He turns to see Dabi on the ground unconscious and next to him he saw some weird looking fucker with a fuzzy coat and a bird mask. He faintly recognizes the man as sakaki. He notices the beer bottle in his hand he also takes notice of his other hand wrapped around Eri's neck. Izuku takes a step towards Sakaki before feeling disoriented, it was then he remembered Sakaki's quirk,sloshed, it makes his opponent lose their sense of balance as if they were as drunk as he is.
"Trying to make me tipsy won't work. I'm a chronic alcoholic and you can't do a damn thing to me." says Izuku, "On a related note if you hurt her, I'm gonna have to break your ribs and pierce your liver. Good luck drinking then dip shit."
It was at this time Izuku realized that Dabi and Toga were both out. He has two Yakuza members behind him and one in front. The one in front happens to have a hostage whom he is greatly attached to. He really is fucked. Setsuno and Tabe run up at him from behind, Izuku whipped around and clawed at Setsuno's katana and slapped Tabe across the face. He began to dance around Setsuno's sword and Tabe's teeth. He tried to get closer to Sakaki and Eri but he just couldn't. Setsuno's range with the sword was hard to get around. He finally just grabbed Setsuno and bashed his head into her head. Izuku made a mad dash for Sakaki. Right before he got to him he hit a barrier.
'Fucking god damnit' thinks Izuku.
He sees Tengai standing at the end of the alley. He whips around and catches Tabe right before he clamps his teeth down on Izuku's head. It was then he noticed that Hojo was back up and Setsuno was gone. He throws Tabe at Hojo and tries to claw his way through the barrier. His hands are moving a mile a minute. If All Might himself were here he would have been impressed at how fast his hands were moving. The shield began to crack. He was doing it. He was gonna get Eri back home, remove the tracker and give her the life she deserves. As he was working his way through the barrier her heard an engine behind him. He turns to see a large black van with Setsuno driving and Rappa in the passenger seat. The car hit him head on and sent him flying through the shield. They slammed on the brakes and all the villains and Eri piled into the car as Izuku struggled to get up. When he got to his feet he saw the van reversing out of the alley. He got up to chase them. They drove and he ran. He was catching up. They couldn't go fast enough to lose him with the turns they had to take. His legs are on fire. His ribs are killing him. He doesn't feel like he could throw a solid punch but he kept running after them. He finally got close enough to grab the back bumper mid intersection. It was at that point he realized they were running a red light and he was about to get hit by a car. He tried to brace himself but the impact made him lose his grip and sent him flying. He managed to get up again to see the villains pull onto the freeway. He lost them. He lost her, and he would be damned if he wouldn't get her back.
Authors Note
This really is not Izuku's week at all. It will get better for him, maybe. Dabi,Toga,Ruby, and Giran will be there for him. They'll help him get her back. But before they can do that Izuku needs to actually sit down and heal. I really feel bad for doing all this to Izuku and Eri. At the same time I feel very excited for the next couple of chapters. They were both so close only to get robbed right after they succeed. Also I'm really sorry for taking so long to write this. I was moving into a new house and was really busy. When I did have time to write I was just exhausted and sore. For the next chapter Izuku is gonna gather information on the shie hassaikai and put together a crew to save Eri. Although saving fighting the whole Yakuza will probably take a couple of chapters, four chapters at the most.
also here is the discord like I think I forgot to put it in the last chapter, that is my bad.

Rice cake playz: Eri being in the story isn't gonna change Izuku too much. He'll be protective but he's still gonna go out nightly and tear himself along with whomever he's fighting. I'm gonna try to balance home life with Vigilantism.
Dear Death Father Dearest: I'm super glad that you like the story. Responding to comments like this makes writing a lot more fun than it would be without talking to anybody. Thank you for your continued support.
Cynder 3601: I'm super glad you thought that was funny. I think the whole situation was hilarious. Like imagine the most famous man on Earth and your personal hero has been dating your mom behind your back for over a year. What do you do? What do you say? How do you explain that to somebody?
Lightning blade 49: If they can get Eri back removing her tracker is going to be one of the first things that they do. Although I feel that Eri would feel uncomfortable with them opening her up to take it out. The whole ordeal would just be painful for everybody involved and leave a bad taste in their mouths. But it would still be for the best to get Eri away from Overhaul and the Shie Hassaikai.
Otaku 6023: I'm glad you like the dialogue between Izuku and stain. I really enjoyed writing it. I thought it was funny the way Izuku handled the whole situation. I also really like the fight after their conversation.
Atomic Dragon 59: Big oof indeed my brother. It really just keeps getting worse for this guy. Izuku can take it though, he's tough. There were some upsides to the situation at the start of the chapter. There are no upsides to the end of this chapter. It was a terrible loss any way you look at it. Izuku did not really get a good chance to drink any body's blood but if he did things might have turned out better. If the fight took place in the pie shop Izuku would have pied on Rappa and Tengai. Maybe it shouldn't have been in the parking lot. Yeah, it would have been way better if it took place in the middle of the shop. Pies would have been flung along with Izuku's blood. I don't think Izuku could have done as well as he did against Rappa indoors, just because he doesn't have enough room to move and with Tengai's barriers there would be no chance. Also the pie guy is a Ketsuiki fan and would never ban him from his shop. Also I don't think Izuku would kill unless he was really backed into a corner. I think when everybody got to the alley and they had Eri, Izuku might have gone for the kill if he had the chance. If Izuku didn't get hit by the van he probably would have killed Tengai and Sasaki. I don't think Izuku would ever completely drain somebody. Once they lose enough blood they would black out. Once they black out and are unable to fight back Izuku would stop just because he doesn't believe in hurting someone who can't fight back.
