Overhaul turned at Mimic's shout and looked to see one of the nurses flying at him with a kick. His eyes widened as he moved to raise his hand, but he knew he wouldn't be able to block in time but then his vision was blocked by a wall of concrete that was then cracked by the force of the kick. "What the hell?" He shouted as on the other side of the wall the nurse back flipped off the wall and landed.

"Damn I missed!" She hissed before standing up and sliding off the Nurses uniform and cap revealing the white and gold costume as well as ears of Rabbit Hero Miruko. Behind her the other four individuals stood up.

"Nice try Miruko it was a good plan. I'm sure it would have worked if not for the unknown member of Overhaul's group." Said Tiger taking off the doctor's coat and scrubs.

"Izuku was right to call us." Mandalay said slipping off her nurse's uniform as well.

"Aww I wish there was a more naughty reason he wanted me to wear a nurses uniform, but I just can't say no to him." Pixiebob said with a swoon.

"Oooh roleplay that might be nice." Ragdoll said before a cough could be heard.

"Enough we have a job to do." Miruko said as she walked up to the wall of stone and raised her leg parallel to her body before bringing it down and smashing the wall in. Miruko dodged to the side narrowly avoiding a white arrow looking to pierce her abdomen. She danced back as the room beyond the wall was revealed. It was warped and misshapen showing no path forward, and yet Overhaul was gone.

"We'll be your opponents heroes." Chrono said as his white hair stretched out and Nemoto raised two guns in his hands.

"We won't let you get in our Boss' way. He's going to change your disgusting hero worshipping world!" Nemoto shouted.

Miruko stood her ground as the Pussycats backed her up. "Grown men forcing a little girl to make their wretched dreams come true. You bastards make me sick!" Tiger said frowning deeply.

Several days ago.

Izuku was waiting outside of the exam room while Eri was being looked over. It had taken a herculean effort to get the little girl to allow the doctors to look her over. Of course given her past it was no surprise she was untrusting of people Izuku's hand clenched as he thought of Overhaul, but then shook his head. "No, this isn't the time to give in to anger. Right now all I need to do is protect Eri. I'm pretty sure Nighteye is going to go ahead with his plan, but he might not be fast enough. I need to have a plan of my own." Izuku thought this all to himself as he cupped his chin.

"The best option is to move Eri, but with the state she's in I don't think that's a good idea. She needs to be settled somewhere, but if I do that then my other course is evacuating the hospital. I don't know if that can be done quickly and what about the patients who can't be moved, and can the other hospitals handle a sudden influx of new patients. It'd be chaos." Izuku ruffled his hair furiously. "Come on think." He said before taking a breath. "I can't protect an entire hospital by myself I'll need help." He said before he pulled his phone out. "Here goes nothing." He said as he hit speed dial.

Mandalay along with the other Pussycats were in their home gym working out. Since Izuku left there had been a serious increase in productivity. Everyone had kicked it into high gear with their training. She smirked as she did crunches. Even Kota had begun practicing with his quirk more often. He'd be gone most of the day and come back drenched in sweat, but with a glowing smile on his face.

They had all followed Kota one day to see just what he'd been up to, and they found him by the lake where Izuku used to train. He was spraying water from the tip of his fingers at a myriad of targets. He was working so hard it was inspiring. As Mandalay was exercising she heard the phone go off. She got up from the floor and went over to answer it as she wiped herself down. Mandalay was wearing a burnt orange sports bra along with matching short shorts. "Hello?" She said only to hear an unexpected voice.

"Mandalay?" Izuku spoke nearly making the woman drop the phone.

"Izuku?" She asked catching the attention of everyone in the room as they crowded around her.

"Did you say Izuku? Let me talk to him!" Pixiebob shouted only to be pushed aside.

"Me first!" Ragdoll said as Mandalay attempted to hold the phone out of reach only to have the phone plucked from her hand by Tiger.

"Hello Izuku what can we do for you?" He asked. Tiger was silent nodding his head at what Izuku was saying not giving any hint at was being said despite being repeatedly asked what was going on by his teammates. "I understand. Good bye." He said before hanging up the phone.

"Tiger what the hell you hogged the phone!" Pixiebob said only for Tiger to raise his hand.

"Everyone suit up we're moving out. Izuku has asked for our help and we are not going to let him down. Let's head out!" Tiger shouted as the rest of the pussycats jumped to get ready. "It's time we put our training to the test." He said clenching his fist.

Miruko hopped back to dodge a series of bullets before leaping forward with a roundhouse that slammed the guy against a wall before grabbing his gun out of the air and threw it into the next guy's face breaking his nose and stunning him long enough that Miruko could drive her foot into his gut dropping him to the ground. He coughed harshly as he hugged his stomach and fell to his knees. "Nice try you punks. You actually made me sweat." She said cracking her knuckles before walking away as the police began to arrest the criminals. She felt a vibration in her chest and reached between her breasts to pull out her phone and saw the HN symbol on her screen.

Miruko opened up the app and heard Izuku's voice. She smiled involuntarily as she walked away from the scene. "Hey there JForce do you miss me already?" She said teasing him a little. "I know Nighteye's not the greatest guy to get along with, but if you come running back to me so soon you might actually hurt his feelings." She said before Izuku spoke. She listened intently before smiling fiercely. "I'll be right there." She said as she made her way to the hospital.

"That was easier than I thought it would be. Hopefully my luck will hold out with this next one. I'm not sure if Principal Nezu will let this happen, but I could really use his help." Izuku said as he dialed UA's number and asked to be transferred to Principal Nezu.

"Ah Midoriya it's nice to hear your voice I see you've been doing well. You're really making me regret my decision. I never knew you were so spiteful." Nezu said as Izuku waved his hand.

"No it's nothing like that Principal I know you did what you had to do. I don't blame you in fact I was calling to ask you a favor." Izuku said rubbing the back of his head as Nezu leaned back in his chair.

"I see, I see well go ahead I'll help you if I can. I suppose I do owe you that much. You kept UA's pride intact by agreeing with our decision, so what do you need?" He asked as he listened before nodding. "Alright I'll let him know he shouldn't have any problem helping you out."He said as Izuku breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much Principal Nezu." He said before hanging up and clenching his fist. "Everything is coming together." He said before looking through the window into Eri's room. "I promise I'll keep you safe no matter what." Izuku said as he dialed one more phone number.

Izuku looked around the darkened room and took a deep breath. He knew this was coming he was prepared for it. He just needed to stay calm and take things as they came. "Looks like we're under attack." He said looking at the door.

"We can't be sure of that yet JForce. Me and Nejire will go out and investigate the hospital. Froppy, Uravity stay here with Izuku. If we find anything we'll signal you over the comms." Ryukyu said as everyone nodded. Nejire followed after Ryukyu out the door. The two looked at each other as they began their search of the hospital.

Izuku looked at the door for a moment until he felt a gentle tug on his sleeve. He looked down to see Eri. She was trying to put on a brave face, but he could feel her body trembling slightly. On the inside he cursed himself. You can't show her a face like this. You need to always be smiling. Izuku kneeled down Eri's bedside and flashed a warm smile. "I promised I'd protect you right? Do you trust me?" He asked holding out his hand as Eri looked at the proffered palm and gave a small smile before nodding and reached for Izuku's hand. At that moment the floor shot up between Eri and Izuku cutting them off.

Izuku eyes' widened as the floor opened up under him. He made to move only to then have the ceiling drop down on him forcing him down the hole pushing him lower and lower. Izuku clenched his fist as he activated his shadow cloak to create spines to lock him in place. The ceiling slammed into his stopped body trying to push him down the further. Izuku pressed his hands against the ceiling and pushed back against it slowly giving himself more space and then created a Rasengan in each hand that began to pulverize the stone ram coming down onto him.

The space Izuku was in filled with dust and chunks of stone and metal, but no matter how much of it he destroyed it kept coming and pushing against his Rasengan. "I can't stay here. Eri needs me." He growled before looking to the side and formed a plan. "Alright…NOW!" He shouted increasing the size of his Rasengan pulverizing a huge chunk of the ceiling coming down on him giving him a split second to cut a hole in the side of the tunnel he'd been forced into and dodged into the open hallway he'd cut into as the pillar of ceiling that had been atop him flew past.

Izuku coughed up some of the dust he created as he wiped it from his face and shook it out of his hair. "Now to get back to Eri." Izuku said before shaking his head. "No I'll have to leave Eri to Tsu and Ochaco. If I can find and beat Overhaul this will all end." He said before ducking to avoid a pair of stone spikes that had been aimed at his head. He heard a yell as the hall closed off around him forming a perfect sphere around him.

"You'll never leave here JForce! The boss will find Eri and punish her for the trouble she's caused, but don't worry you'll be long dead before that happens so you won't have to live with any guilt." Mimic said as Izuku looked around the room.

"You won't stop me!" He shouted as one of his arms turned black and he slammed it into a wall. The whole thing shattered and fell apart revealing…another wall behind it. Izuku grit his teeth as he began to pummel that same spot revealing wall after wall. The entire time he could hear Mimic laughing.

"I can't believe an idiot like you was able to steal Eri from the boss." He mocked, but Izuku hardly paid him any mind. In truth Izuku wasn't just pummeling this wall because he had no other ideas. He was trying to pinpoint Mimic's hiding spot. Izuku assumed that in order for Mimic to use his power he needed to be nearby and judging from the sound of his voice that was the right idea. Izuku focused on Mimic's voice trying to sense him and in a moment a red outline appeared in his mind's eyes. Mimic was in the ceiling behind him and to the left.

Izuku smiled as he charged a punch and shot it forth with enough speed to create a sonic boom shaking the entire room and stunning Mimic. Izuku's fist rocketed to the wall and at the last second bent backwards towards Mimic who didn't have time to escape before Izuku's fist slammed into him shattering his concrete cover and plowing into his gut. Bile rose up Mimic's throat before rocketing from his mouth as the air was knocked from his lungs.

Mimic's eyes rolled into the back of his head as he fell from the ceiling landing face first on the ground. Izuku looked over his shoulder before grabbing hold of a piece of rebar and ripped it out of the wall. He walked over to Mimic before lifting him and wrapping the rebar tightly around his arms and chest. "That should keep you in place for a while." He said walking away to the wall he'd been punching for the last few minutes and placed his palm against the fresh concrete. Izuku set himself on his right leg with cracked the ground before punching the wall and watched as it shattered apart revealing another hallway. "Alright Overhaul it's just you and me." Izuku said dashing down the hallway.

Tsu and Ochaco had been watching Izuku calm Eri and were overcome with the sweetness of the scene. Just as they were about to say 'aww' a wall of stone separated the two. Tsu reacted instantly and wrapped her tongue around Eri bringing her over to them as the room began to warp and twist around the trio of females. They soon found themselves deposited into a hallway. There was only a single path leading forward with no detours or even windows.

Ochaco looked around as she stood up. "Are you ok Tsu, Eri?" She asked as Tsu stood up with a trembling Eri in her arms. The frog girl stroked Eri's long silver hair like she would do to calm one of her younger siblings. It seemed to work as Eri's shaking calmed down to a slight shudder.

"Yeah we're fine. It looks like we were separated from Izuku. Should we try to find him?" Tsu asked as Ochaco shook her head.

"I doubt the villains will let that happen, besides we have to trust Izuku can handle himself. We should be focused on getting Eri out of here." Ochaco said as Tsu nodded.

"Right let's go." Ochaco said as the two began to walk. It was obvious this path had been made for them specifically and wasn't just an oversight by whatever villain had morphed the hospital.

"Where do you think this is leading us?" Tsu asked as Ochaco shrugged.

"I don't know, but we should keep an eye out. If possible I'd like to make a new path, but none of has the power to do that, so we'll just have to take whatever comes head on." She said as in front of them the left wall suddenly exploded inwards. Tsu Jumped back with Eri as Ochaco moved in front of the two and took on a fighting stance. From the cloud of dust emerged Izuku. Ochaco relaxed as the green haired hero appeared before her. "Izuku I'm so glad to see you!" Ochaco said as Izuku turned to her he had a shocked look on his face before smiling.

"Ochaco thank goodness I could find you." He said running up to her and hugging her tightly. This made Ochaco blush as she felt Izuku squeeze her so tightly.

"Umm Izuku what should we do? Ryukyu and Nejire are still somewhere in the hospital." Izuku gave her a confused look again, but it left just as suddenly as it appeared so she paid it no mind.

"Oh don't worry I'm sure they have a plan for this. You just need to get Eri out of here as soon as possible. The path behind me will lead you out of the hospital." Izuku said before starting to jog down the hallway. "Don't worry about anything except keeping Eri safe alright. I'm counting on you two!" He shouted as he rounded the corner. Ochaco held her hand out to stop him, but he was already gone. She looked at Tsu and Eri before both nodding. This wasn't the time to question things there one and only priority was getting Eri to safety.

As they ran down the path Izuku had opened up Eri looked down the hall Izuku had run down and for a split second she saw a pair of golden eyes and a wide grin as someone waved at her. The image sent a chill through her body so much so she squeezed tightly around Tsu.

"Don't worry Eri Izuku will be fine and come back to us. Just trust him ok." Tsu said mistaking Eri's actions for worry about Izuku as Eri remained silent.

From around the corner Toga smiled as her quirk ran out the Izuku disguise slipping off her naked body. She licked her lips as she giggled. "Wow that was close any longer and they would have seen me in my birthday suit! It's so fun to be the person you love too bad it had to end early. Guess that's what only a lick of blood will do for you." When Toga had had snuck into Izuku's room she'd found a bloody stain on his pillow apparently he'd gotten somewhat injured on patrol. To be honest Toga hadn't even thought tasting the stained cloth would work, but to her surprise it had. Shame she had to waste that blood on a moment like this, but sacrifices must be made she supposed. She thought to herself as she then heard footsteps announcing Twice's arrival.

"Wow that was close Toga. Those girls nearly saw my clone of that Rappa guy. Good thing he was strong enough to break down that wall." Twice said handing Toga her clothes. Toga took them gratefully as she slipped on her oversized sweater.

"Guess we should deal with these Ryukyu and Nejire people. I mean it would be nice for all the heroes to just dogpile on Overhaul, but I think watching Izuku pound his face in will make me really happy." Toga said with a blush. Twice nodded.

"Hmm I guess so, alright let's find them." He said as the two of them began to skip down the hall.

"Overhaul's gonna die, Overhaul's going to die!" The two sang as they made their way down the hall.

Overhaul looked back at the solid wall behind him. After Mimic had blocked that nurses' attack he'd created a path for Overhaul to leave through and then shut off the way he'd went while Chrono and Nemoto held off those damn heroes back there. "Looks like I underestimated you JForce you knew I'd come here and had a contingency for it. I won't make the same mistake twice." Overhaul stated as he walked down the hall. He looked around to see that Mimic had done his job. He'd told Overhaul that he separated Izuku from Eri and that she plus two young heroes were trapped on a path straight towards him.

"As always Mimic you accomplish your tasks expertly." He said as he began walking down the path set before him. Overhaul looked through the hallway and noticed that there was no one around. That struck him as odd. "He couldn't have possibly evacuated the entire hospital in a few days." Overhaul said as he continued to walk. That seemed to be the case though having an entire hospital overturned and warped would have patients screaming and panicked, but he didn't hear a single sound.

"This isn't right." Overhaul said as he stepped up to the door of a room and reached for the handle. It was only by the barest hints that Overhaul was able to get out of the way of the spray of bullets that had been about to pierce him from behind. He looked back to see the opposite room door had been opened and police officers had opened fire on him. His eye twitched as he pressed his hand to the ground and spikes sprang from the floor spearing each officer through the head. They hung there limply as their guns clattered to the floor.

"Heroes and police lying in wait for me. You really are quite the strategist JForce, but now that I know I'll be sure to kill each of them as I make my way to Eri." Overhaul said hearing more doors open and pounding feet as a barricade of police stood in front of him.

"Hands up Yakuza get on your knees!" A detective shouted, but Overhaul just shook his head.

"Your filthy voice is making my ears itch." He said scratching his ear as he rushed forward.
