Chapter 55 The Final Battle Part 5: The signs

(At the room).

*Standing in the corner looking at the bloody remains of Lady Nagant as a glimpse of her face appears in his mind which made him so terrified but for some reason deep down he wanted more of the blood and gore that deep feeling of wanting flesh and blood makes him sick to his stomach*

Overhaul: I feel like I'm slowly fading away...

*Tearing up slightly as he leans back against the wall overhearing the battle that's nearby. Possibly be Shigaraki which is clear that they're close by to each other*

Overhaul: Maybe I should find him...

*Stepping closer to the door realizing that he can't even open the door due to his prosthetics arms being taken away. Using his legs to kick the door open but he was hesitant to leave the room but the thought of staying in a room filled with blood and gore*

(In his mind).

"Shigaraki is probably nearby should I go find him or continued to find Boss?"

*Wonders to himself but the thought of the maze could bring more creatures that could be troubling for him. Stepping out of the room and stands in the room but remembers the woman in the hallway but it seems that she just disappeared or unless she somewhere up ahead who knows for sure at this point on*

"I should wait for Shigaraki..."

(Out of his mind).

*Closing his eyes slightly but heard a loud sound coming from right beside him like a wall being destroyed by something with great force. Opening his eyes slightly to see black and red type of lines or short that could've instantly killed him but didn't which deep down he wish it did. Looking over to the hole to see what was going on.*

Overhaul: Shigaraki...

*Mumbles quietly*

Shigaraki: Overhaul I found you!

*Goes through the wall and stands right next to him*

(In his mind).

"I managed to kill all those creatures with my multiple quirks."

*Remembering himself killing all of those creatures with the red and black long nails*

(Out of his mind).

Shigaraki: So I'm assuming you won against Nagant right?

*Looks at him calmly yet wonders on how did he win especially with no quirk or no arms to help him*

Overhaul: We have to save them before it's too late...

*Says it calmly yet wonders how he got that power*

Overhaul: Hold up a second how did you got that power I thought you only used decay?

*Frowns at him but mostly annoyed on why he didn't used it in the first place*

Shigaraki: I didn't want anyone to know about it I was afraid of what everyone would think...

*Looks at him calmly yet noticed his annoyed expression*

Shigaraki: Then how did you win that fight against Nagant?

*Looks at him annoyed right back*

Overhaul: I wasn't myself...

*Mumbles it a bit*

Shigaraki: Huh well anyway we should get going together I'll be the knight and shining armor and you be my princess that I need to protect!

*Looks at him with a smirk since he wanted to spark a reaction from him*

Overhaul: Shut up and also it's Prince not Princess I'm a guy remember and plus I don't need your help on rescuing my boss!

*Turns around and frowns slightly already feeling annoyed with Shigaraki. Even though the thought of fading away still scares him and he can't do anything about it but wait until it happens*

(Meanwhile at the underground tunnels).

*Showing off the half blue and half black flames to the control Midoriya who seems to be unimpressed by the new flames that just appeared.*

Dabi: I have to win this fight!

*Says it out loud as half of his body becomes more demon like that's similar to Random. As the flames grew bigger and hotter that's similar to the sun. Immediately shooting out the flames and spreading throughout the tunnels. The flames hit Midoriya causing him to scream out in pain as he turns into ash.*

Dabi: Sorry Midoriya...

*Still using the flames as the form of Random disappears slowly. Breathing heavily after using the power of Random even though for reason he didn't wanted to use it. It just came out on its own.*

Dabi: Is random trying to take over my body?

*Walking slowly down the path trying to regain his strength to keep fighting in case of another creature or controlled person shows up. Half of his face is slowly turning back to normal but half of his eyes were completely black*

Dabi: I have to find Random and end this nightmare...

*Walking slowly towards to the end of the tunnel and noticed another path forming once again*

Dabi: ...

(In his mind).

"Thinking about facing Random is making feel so much anxiety but why is that exactly? Is it because I'm turning into him?"

(Out of his mind).

*Hearing a echo in the distance a familiar voice to his however the voice seems more demonic*

Random: The Prince of Darkness is coming... I was hoping it will come out later on but it seems you have a decision to make.

*The voice echoes throughout the tunnels that appears to be close.*

Dabi: What decision?

*Says it loud enough to get a response from him*

Random: Whether to seal him away just like I did.

*Says it calmly while changing the tunnels to different directions*

Dabi: I'm not sealing Overhaul away! I know there has to be a better way! Have you ever think about that when you became Random?

*Yells it out loud but hasn't gotten answered back*

Dabi: ...

*Walking slowly towards to the tunnel into the pitch black darkness using his flames to light up the way.*

(Meanwhile at the hallway).

Shigaraki: Wait I forgot those creatures don't attack you so being in the maze is going to be easy.

*Looks at him realizing it*

Overhaul: I kinda forgotten about it...

*Looks at him calmly yet steps back away from him just by a short distance since having a sick twisted thought appears in mind. The thought of killing Shigaraki and eating him especially drinking his blood makes him sick to his stomach but also hungry.*

(In his mind).

"I'm looking at Shigaraki like he's a piece of meat oh this is bad I don't want to think this way..."

(Out of his mind).

*Swallowing his drool that he produced after looking at Shigaraki but tries to remain calm.*

Shigaraki: Oh wait scratch that I didn't mean princess or prince I mean human shield!

*Pushing Overhaul to go in front of him*

Overhaul: You seriously trying to be like Dabi right!?

*Looks at him more annoyed than usual*

Shigaraki: Yeah since those creatures that Random makes are afraid of you so you being the human shield is the only way to beat this maze.

*Looks at him with a smile*

Overhaul: Whatever let's just go...

*Frowns even more as he begins walking slowly down the hallway while Shigaraki follows him from right behind. Hearing a woman singing in the distance a song that's about death and destruction.*

Shigaraki: Come on shield keep going...

*Whispers to him while pushing him further into the hallway however the lights suddenly turned off and the path to go back is blocked off.*

Overhaul: Why am I doing here? Oh right to save my Boss...

*Says it a bit afraid of being in front especially in the darkness with no light*

Shigaraki: Just be quiet we don't want to draw any attention.

*Whispers to him*

Overhaul: Easy for you to say I can't see anything...

*Trembling slightly after feeling the sense of dread up ahead possibly the unknown woman is nearby. As a sign appears right in front of them*

The sign: She's watching your every move try to find the safe room that's mark green. If you choose wrong then a nightmare will come to life.

(At the underground tunnels).

Dabi: ...

*Slowly moving down the path that he picked by a random guess slowly making his way using his flames to light up the way. After a minute in a sound of water could be heard up ahead along with a sign that appeared right in front of him.*

The sign: Time for a nice swim.

Dabi: Is like when I was trying to escape from those creatures...

*Remembering swimming away from those creatures*

(In his mind).

"If I do go into the water then that means my flames will disappear completely... Damn it but I have to in order to find Random."

(Out of his mind).

*The sign changes again*

The sign: How long can you hold your breath?
