I Loved You First (Dabi X OC X Hawks)

Chapter 67 - Prison break fail

Author's Note

Just giving a bit of a warning, things get a little bloody in this chapter courtesy of Overhaul. Apart from that enjoy!

Kimi's POV

"And then what happened Kimi?" Eri asked, her eyes wide with excitement. I had been telling her story after story about Keigo, Aisawa, Mirko and Fatgum and for the first time I had seen her genuinely laugh.

"Then he took the kittens and said, 'I already have one cat, what's 2 more' and he kept Hikaru and Kaoru and raised them alongside his own cat." I smiled telling her the story of Aisawa adopting two ginger kittens that had been found wandering the school grounds.

"I like Mr Eraser, he's nice!" Eri smiled up at me. Over the past few hours I had wrapped us both up in blankets and rocked her in my lap whilst telling her stories of heroes and although my legs were numb, the happy grin on her face stopped me from getting up.

"Is he the one looking for you?" She asked playing with the curls around my face.

"He might be. But one person I know who is looking for me is the big silly bird!" I said tickling her arms and smiling at the giggles she emitted.

"Alright play time's over you two. Overhaul wants to speak with you newbie!" Snarled a mask covered thug who had unceremoniously burst into the room, causing Eri to flinch and clutch my arm instinctively.

"It's okay Eri, I'll be back soon can you give us a minute?" I asked sweetly placing a hand on his arm. This is gross but it's the only thing I can think of.

"S-sure I'll wait outside." He stuttered looking flustered.

"Okay sweetie when I go out I want you to try the door and if it's open I want you to run out as quietly as you can. The way out seems to be on the right side and up the stairs. Once you're out I want you to run to any store you see and ask the person behind the counter to call the police and you can explain everything that's happening okay? Don't worry about me." I said in a hushed voice once the Yakuza member was out of the room. Eri's eyes widened and a look of apprehension and fear spread across her face.

"But what if they take you somewhere else once I'm gone? What if they punish you?" She asked in the same hushed voice she first used when telling me about Overhaul.

"I'll be fine, don't worry. Just focus on getting out okay?" I said with a tight lipped smile. God, please let this work.
With a stiff nod from Eri I smiled, squeezed her hand and made my way out of the room to the waiting Yakuza member.

"Right this way miss." He smirked, his mask now in his hand revealing a forty-so year old face and and blonde hair slicked back messily. Eww.

The keys were in his right hand so I quickly looped my arm through his and began to walk down the corridor. The overpowering smell of cheap aftershave making me nauseous.

"So what does Overhaul want with little ol' me?" I asked feeling sick but mentally patting myself on the back when he completely forgot to lock the door and happily walked alongside me down the hall.

"I don't really know to be honest, he doesn't tell us everything. Y-you can call me Tai by the way." He smirked bringing up another hand to rub my arm. Creep.

"Nice to meet you Tai. Can I ask why you all wear those masks?" I asked eyeing up the beak in his hand.

"Overhaul has a thing about germs and he likes us all to wear these. Though it is a shame, it hides this handsome face." He said with cockiness,rubbing a callous hand over his oily weather beaten skin.
