As the group of five walked or was carried down the street in Butters and Bubbles cases, the Togata began to speak to the group.

"So what's with the cat and fish? They part of your quirks or just pets you two keep?"

"I ain't some filthy pet ya damned wanker! I'm my lass's familiar!" Bubbles shouted in annoyance for the blond to start laughing.

"That's some awesome ventriloquism you've got! If heroism doesn't work out for you, that's always a door you can go through. It almost sounded like the fish actually talked!"

"That's because he actually talked."

There was a silence before Togata laughed again. "HAHAHAHA! That's hilarious how dedicated you two are to your-"

"The fish/I talked!" All four shouted for Togata's face to go from hysterically laughing to that of stunned surprise.

"So the fish...."

"Talked? Yes. And I can talk too." Butters getting annoyed at trying to point out this is possible explained this as actually a possibility.

"Ah....wha....How?"

"It's a long story. All you need to know though is thanks to some 'special' assistance from us, these two can talk as well as transform into other members of their species family category."

"Does that include extinct and mythical?"

"I've been half wondering that too." Ochako asked not completely certain herself if this was possible.

"Extinct as long as it resides in the family classification of the creature, they can transform into the species. Mythical not so much since the species has to exist in the first place. Ironic since none of this is any means normal to begin with, but some laws of nature do have to be followed."

"Ok I think diving deeper into that isn't important. Anyway, what are we getting exactly?"

Izuku looked down the list he wrote before stopping at the entrance to a below ground shop. "We should be able to get a good amount of what we need here. Ochako, can you help find this stuff with Togata? A few of these things aren't exactly stuff you'd like to show somebody that doesn't know of the world we live in."

"Fair enough." Ochako was given a list for them to walk two different directions when entering the store.

As they looked, Togata started asking about the items. "Hair of a rat, bones of a crow, sea urchin poison? What exactly do you do with these things?"

"Make potions. Some you drink, some you pour on yourself, others you pour on others or get them to ingest."

"Like the arse Bakugou." Bubbles started laughing for Togata to start looking around.

'So I'm in a shop with a bunch of people that use some kind of voodoo tricks. Tamaki and Nejire will never believe this.' He turns a corner before seeing a jar of eyeballs to spook him a bit. "Jeez this place gives me the creeps." The eyes start moving to all stare at the blond to send a shiver down his spine. "Hey Midoriya. Uraraka. You mind if I wait outside until the two of you are done?"

"Sure. We can handle this ourselves." Ochako waves her hand in a way to state Togata could go ahead with him practically running out the door with the set of eyes keeping their line of sight on him until they couldn't anymore.

A half an hour passes before the two exit the shop to see the blond not exactly fond of his interaction inside the shop. "You got everything?"

Izuku held up a bag with almost everything checked off the list. "All we need are a few things we can get at a grocery store. Since there won't be creepy eyes staring at you, you can go in and get those." Togata laughed a bit before asking.

"You Uh.....you saw that, didn't you?"

"Definitely a fun thing to behold."

The group went towards a local convenience store where they would get salt, iodine, rubbing alcohol and a few over the counter painkillers to the request. As they left, Togata was curious what all the stuff was for to only get that they were for a potion that would make someone's bodily functions slow down as well as a few to help reaction time and fill out a few orders Izuku had. This was a bit of a surprise since Togata didn't know people actually requested for some potions. While walking past an alley, a small girl came running out of the alley to bump into Izuku.

"Are you alright my dear? You really took a tumble." Izuku and Ochako looked at the child to see she had white hair and red eyes. The more unique thing about her though was a small horn on the side of her head growing out. When Izuku tried to pick her up, the small child flinched to make the group start to wonder about her. "It's ok. I won't hurt you."

"You should be more careful Eri. Wouldn't wanna cause trouble for others now would we?" A man with a plague mask and a green jacket came out of the alley to scare the child called Eri to violently shake in Izuku's arms. Izuku and Ochako knew this man as Overhaul.

'This is not normal.'

"I'm sorry. My daughter was throwing a tantrum before to force me to scold her before running off. I hope she didn't cause you any troubles."

"None at all sir. An honest accident. Nothing you should worry about." Izuku took the lead with Ochako going over to try and talk to the girl before Togata kept his hand out to keep her.

"Wait a second. If I remember correctly, you're part of the Hassaikai group. You're quite famous around here." The blond tried to find some way to ease up the man's guard for it to not work. No matter what he said, Overhaul never stopped being on edge. However, Izuku used this time to speak quietly with Eri.

"I know you're in danger. Please just let me help you. I can't take you away from him now, but I can use my powers to find you later with more people. But I can't do anything unless you trust me. Can you do that for me Sweetheart?" Eri looked up at Izuku who tried to keep a calm facade while speaking to not draw any unwanted attention for her to nod.

"Anyway, let's start heading back Eri." Eri held onto Izuku tightly afraid to walk away before the man spoke up again. "Eri. Let's go." She was shaking in fear before letting go of Izuku and walking back to stand by Overhaul's side. "Sorry to get you involved in our little family drama."

"Oh no sir. You don't have to worry. Take care Eri. I hope to meet you again under better circumstances."

When they left, Ochako tried to head into the alley with Izuku holding her arm. "Why are you stopping me?"

"Because it won't end well."

"And how do you know that!?" Izuku shushed Ochako before explaining.

"Things need to play out certain ways. If we were to pick a fight with Overhaul now, then all we're working towards is in danger. You and I both already know of the raid and that it will involve Eri. However, I can't guarantee she won't be put back in that hell hole if things succeed or fail for us. We know that Eri will be secured during the raid that will happen, but nothing else is set in stone. She will be inside the facility I will be in and going after her now won't change that part. All we can do is allow them to peacefully leave without causing more trouble for Eri or ourselves. I don't like it as much as you, but this is the best we can do right now."

Ochako held her head down in agitation knowing she let a girl that needed help go back to a tormentor. "I hate this."

"I do too. But would you rather there be an opportunity where we can definitely succeed, or one where we may but still put the child back in the arms of the tormentor? She needs help. That I'm not going to lie and say isn't true. But doing it now won't work. It'll only cause more problems for us in the end."

"The issue unfortunately is that we can't guarantee we'll be able to for a while."

"Not necessarily Togata." Izuku snapped his fingers for a few shadows to move around and show the faces of people. "You see, I gave Eri a friend to help. This 'friend' will tell me everything we need to know as well as give any information we need to put evidence enough to give a warrant and to find the Hassaikai. The best part of this is, this friend shall hide in the one spot they can't be seen. Inside Eri's shadow.

"Oh somethin tells me we're gonna have blood in the water." Bubbles laughed at this before lighting a cigar.

"In due time Bubbles. In due time." The group began walking back to the agency with Ochako's mind still worried for Eri.

At the Hassaikai base

Eri was put inside her room and locked inside while Overhaul and his men worked. Due to her little 'adventure', the villain wanted to make sure his key component to his plan as he said to her would never leave again. Sitting on the psych ward hospital looking bed, Eri curled up with a pillow scared of the moment the door opened again. However, a small light was shined in the room with the image of a shadow presenting itself to her.

She panicked and hid before feeling a hand on her head. Looking up, the shadow tried to give the calmest look it could while changing it's head to resemble Izuku's.

"Y-you're that nice person's p-power?" The shadow nodded before hearing Eri's stomach growl. "S-sorry."

The shadow thought for a moment before holding a finger up to mean 'one moment' and slid under the crack of the door to the room they were in. A few moments later, the shadow came back with a small ham and cheese sandwich, an apple, and some milk in a bottle to wash it down.

"T-thank you." She started eating it before having tears fall down her face. The shadow tried to make sure she was ok before getting a reply. "I-I'm ok. I-it's just that....you're so nice....*hic* Nobody's been this nice to me." The shadow patted her head while feeling as much sympathy as it could before hearing Overhaul and someone talk about their plans. It tried to explain it would be back before going under and hiding in the villain's shadow to hear of his plans to flood illegal drugs into the country before giving a final product that was made of Eri's blood. The shadow listened carefully while pulling out a tape recorder Izuku gave it before attaching itself onto Eri. It had a job to do, and that job was to make things as easy as possible to open up a hole for Eri to escape from as to Izuku's request.

Back at Nighteye's agency

Izuku and Ochako began making a few potions to handle the dangers. "Alright Ochako. Time for some of the final ingredients." Izuku pulled out a pocket watch and some fossilised amber to place inside. As they did this, Nighteye, Bubble Girl and Togata watched from behind, curious to what they were doing.

"So what are they making?"

"I'm not fully sure."

The potion started to bubble up before making a large explosion that nearly set off the smoke detectors. When it cleared, Izuku pulled the pocket watch out for Bubble Girl to walk up. "Ok. So what did you do?"

"Made a time stopping watch. It will only work for twelve hours, but that's more than enough time to do what I planned to happen."

"Which is?"

Izuku smirked while answering. "Lowering the casualties of the attack on Hosu and the raid that will happen on the Hassaikai."

"Now I think you're pulling our leg." Togata couldn't believe something like this would happen before Izuku held the watch up.

"Want proof?" He pressed the button for everyone to think that nothing happened.

"I think you've lost your mind man."

"Perhaps a little, but I didn't lose my belt." Izuku held up in his supposedly empty hand three belts that were used by the onlookers. Nighteye's pants dropped to show a pair of shorts, Togata's showed stripe boxers, and Bubble Girl showed a T-string that was sky blue.

"AHH!" The blue woman immediately covered herself before being tossed her belt again along with the other two. "THAT WASN'T FUNNY!"

Both Ochako and Izuku started laughing a bit before answering. "It's kinda funny."

"Anyway, now we should be able to hold off most of what will come our way. Look out Stain. We're coming for you next."

And that finishes this chapter. See how Izuku and Ochako manage Hosu next time. Hope you all enjoyed and thanks for reading.
