My Hero Academia: Blood and Fire
Precepts: Start of the Raid
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAfter learning of when they were going to raid Chisaki's base of operations, and that the sisters and their brother would be taking part in it, Celestia made sure that Eri would be safe and sound in UA while they were gone, since she would be staying here the entire time. To do that she found that the Principle was willing to watch after Eri while they were dealing with the Precepts, though at the same time she also found a good dragon plush that the little girl liked, as it seemed like Eri liked her dragon form and this helped calm her down. That was a good thing in her mind, as she didn't want the girl to worry while they were gone, especially since she liked her, Selene, and Izuku, though she also placed her trust in those that Celestia trusted, hence why she trusted Nezu. This would also prevent the Precepts from even thinking about launching an attack to get her back, because the Precepts had no warpers, like Kurogiri, and with the raid they would be able to make them focus on them and no one else, but Eri had heroes around her in case something unexpected happened.
When the morning of the raid arrived, however, the girls rose early so they could get ready for Sir Nighteye's raid, though at the same time Eri woke up as well and still seemed nervous about the entire thing, or at least that seemed to be what was on her mind right now.
"Are you... going to teach him a lesson?" Eri asked, hugging her new dragon plush as she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, as the siblings were getting started early so they could join the raid at the appropriate time, so Sir Nighteye could launch their attack on Chisaski before he even realized what was going on, hopefully to trap him and his entire gang.
"That's right, we're going to beat Chisaki and his gang up, so they can't hurt you or anyone else again." Celestia replied, but she did lower herself for a moment so she could smile and look Eri in the eyes, while also rubbing her head, something that seemed to make the little girl happy since she loved how confident and caring Celestia was, "So go get some sleep, while my siblings and I go make sure they're put behind bars. When we get back you won't have to worry about him ever again."
This was one of those moments that Selene totally agreed with Celestia, she had no reason to believe that Chisaki, even with his Overhaul Quirk, could match her or her sister, or even Izuku for that matter since their brother had improved quite a lot since he moved into his new style. The Precepts were going down, she knew that was going to happen no matter what, and it made her eager to see whatever happened when the raid finally started, since some of the other members, those they knew about, had a few interesting Quirks. She was looking to clash with them and potentially score enough blood to copy a few of their powers, but her main focus was on bringing the Precepts down so they wouldn't be able to hurt anyone else, especially after hearing what Chisaki did to Eri before she was able to flee from his base. Once Eri knew that she could trust them, and knew they would do everything in their power to bring down Chisaki and his entire gang, plus whoever happened to be in league with them, she let herself be taken back to bed for a time, allowing the siblings to leave.
Following that they headed out to Sir Nighteye's offices, where they took their cases to the changing rooms and got ready to face the Eight Precepts of Death, though as they did so Selene slipped Nightfell onto her back as Celestia made sure Solarion was in place as well, causing them to regroup with Izuku and the others.
"How are you feeling?" Ryukyu asked, as she and her interns were already in the office, and with the arrival of Celestia and Selene, specifically those two since Sir Nighteye was still on the fence about Izuku, they started to get moving to meet up with the officers that would be joining them to arrest the Precepts, and her reason for asking was because many of them knew Celestia had been angry when she looked over the information on what Chisaki did to Eri.
"I'm good... as long as I don't think about it, I won't explode." Celestia replied, because she knew that the others were slightly worried about her mental well-being, especially with how she and Eri had bonded since she rescued the little girl, though at the same time she knew that if she didn't think about the information her emotions would remain stable.
Selene had another reason to worry about Celestia exploding in an emotional manner, it seemed to be damaging the magic that had sealed her princess persona and memories inside her, so with a cracked seal she was worried that any additional damage might break it completely. Of course there was something she hadn't considered and only learned while getting ready for this day, the cracked seal was slowly leaking magic, allowing Selene to actually start regaining some of her magic, so she theorized that if Celestia's seal was fully broken she would regain her full magic at the same time. If that happened she had no idea what it might mean for her, because while Selene had been part of Luna, once upon a time, she really had no clue as to what sort of magic she might have access to, which both excited and terrified her. Instead of worrying about all of that, however, she focused on the task at hand as she and the others regrouped with the police outside a Japanese style house, the lair of the Precepts and Chisaki, and based on what she was seeing it looked like most people were already out to work and school.
Sure enough they didn't have to wait very long for things to go sideways, as the moment the head police officer started to ring the doorbell a large person, wearing the mask of someone belonging to the Precepts, smashed through the fence and attacked, and while Izuku and Aizawa saved those knocked into the air Ryukyu transformed into her dragon form to stop the figure's next attack.
"The Ryukyu Group will deal with this one. Everyone else, move forward." Ryukyu stated, slamming the tall figure into the ground while making sure he was pulled away from the building, where she found that Selene was already moving, a pair of serpents wrapping around the brute's arms to restrain him.
Celestia nodded as she and the others moved into the front yard and invaded the domain of the Precepts, Sir Nighteye at the front as he followed the memories he had spied on previously, to help them find the hidden passage into the true base of the Precepts, but she was focused on finding Chisaki and bringing him to justice at long last.
"It looks like you have some invaders." a voice said, where Chisaki was already in the underground area of his base, which just so happened to be where he resided most of the time, be it to work on the Quirk Erasing Bullet, or QEB as some in his circle called it, or to continue dismantling and reassembling Eri, the latter being interrupted thanks to her capture, though at the moment he was in a private office, "Shall I eliminate them for you?"
Chisaki glanced at the figure for a moment, as they were wearing a dark robe over their entire body, it looked like the robes from that one organization from the Kingdom Hearts game one of his underlings played on their spare time, and only on his spare time, yet he couldn't see their face. What he knew about the figure was that she, it was definitely a she based on the voice, seemed to be a warper, she had the power to warp into and out of places with far too much ease, it was why no one had been able to find Tomura when All For One was destroyed. The interesting thing was that the mysterious woman had a digitigrade stance, in fact she had paws like a wolf or something, he was sure she had a wolf's tail, and the top of her hood had added points for wolf ears to reside in while still hiding what she was. What he guessed was that she was a mutant, one he had never encountered before, and yet, at the same time, she had come to him with information regarding the attack, an hour before the attack started, to which he had been able to get his top brass into the basement long before the heroes started their assault.
The other thing about her that was strange was that she held a hand out and a glaive, a weapon with a long curved head and a long handle, seemed to appear out of thin air, almost like the figure was armed and at the ready, to which he simply held his gaze for a moment before making his decision.
"No need, I have the Cleansing Salvo to take care of them. They're under orders to go on a rampage, as if I was never here to begin with, and secure this place for my return." Chisaki replied, though at the same time he knew he wouldn't return, in fact if anyone returned to this place it would be to collect the old head of their Yakuza and collect anyone that ended up surviving this attack, since he would be moving to the secondary base that no one outside his immediate circle knew about.
"Oh, you're no fun." the figure replied, dismissing the weapon with a wave of her hand, something that made Chisaki take a moment to wonder about her Quirk since she was displaying different powers than most with a warp Quirk, like she had a portal Quirk or some sort of storage Quirk, he honestly wasn't too sure about her right now, "A shame that you have to move your operation, though, since it looks like you put a lot of effort into this place... you must have something grand in mind, to require all of this."
"Yes, I'm planning on bringing down this rotten society that's so focused on Quirks... if only we still had Eri, I would have been able to perfect the formula for my special bullets." Chisaki stated, which was the truth, without the girl he had been unable to make progress in making his bullets, she was the keystone of the entire operation and since her disappearance they had been unable to do anything, which was why he kept trying to find her on her own, to take her back, which was hard to do since she was surrounded by UA's staff.
"Oh, you mean this little one?" the figure inquired, where she reached behind the pillar that was near her and Chisaki and his second watched as she pulled Eri out of thin air like it was nothing, something that surprised the girl since she clearly wasn't expecting such a thing to happen, and he found that she was dressed like a normal girl and had a dragon plush that she was tightly holding, like it was helping her keep calm right now.
"Wait... you could have snatched her whenever you wanted? Why didn't you do so previously?" Chisaki asked, though as he said that his second, Chronostasis, collected Eri, where they found that she seemed far more defiant than before, which told him that once they were out of here he would have to break her again, physically and mentally, to make her submissive so he could continue making his bullets, and that meant getting rid of her pathetic toy as well.
"You never asked, my dear. Think of this as a last favor on my part, for now... if you get out of here, I'll be more than happy to assist your organization some more." the figure said, though Chisaki could tell that she was eager to see what would happen to him, the Precepts, and his plans, not to mention what might happen to the heroes that were invading his domain, where she turned as if she was going to leave the area, "Oh, have fun fleeing... it's only a matter of time until they realize that Eri has been stolen, and when they do all Hell is going to break loose."
Chisaki had no idea what the figure's game was, she acted like none of them really mattered in the grand scheme of things, like she was pretending to be a goddess or something of that level, that much he could tell, and she vanished without even leaving a trace of her existence, causing Chisaki and Chronostasis to resume fleeing, all while he was focusing on the work he would be doing on Eri in the very near future.
