Chapter 78 - Chapter 78 Two Worlds Collide

Shigaraki: "You want to share your power with us?"

*He asked Dabi, feeling unexpectedly touched by the fact that Dabi had considered them in his thoughts.*

Chrono: "W-What that?"

*He pointed at something that in the sky*

*Dabi, Shigaraki, and the others looked up simultaneously as a mysterious portal suddenly appeared in the sky without warning. The sudden appearance of he portal caught everyone off guard, their eyes widening with a mix of curiosity and caution as they stared up at the unknown phenomenon above them.*

*A portal suddenly appears in the sky. Dabi and Overhaul as they clash fiercely against each other, their powerful Quirks colliding with devastating force. As they plummet towards the ground, the intense battle continues amidst the swirling vortex of energy surrounding them.*

First Link Overhaul: "It's your fault!"

*He shouted angrily, his voice barely audible over the rushing wind and the explosive impacts of their Quirks colliding mid-air.*

*Without a word, Dabi unleashed a powerful blast of his signature blue flames, sending Overhaul hurtling through the air like a meteor. The force was so great that Overhaul disappeared from sight, leaving only a trailing streak of flame and smoke in his wake.*

*Dabi landed with a thunderous crash, using his blue flames to cushion the impact and protect himself from the full force of the fall. As the flames subsided, he found himself standing before an abandoned building, its windows shattered and doors hanging off their hinges.*

*He groaned softly, his body aching from the brutal fall despite his flames' protection. He looked around cautiously, taking in his surroundings and the unexpected company - until his gaze landed on someone familiar. Too familiar.*

First Connection Dabi: "Why do you look like me?"

*He demanded, his voice sharp with suspicion as he stared at the other Dabi standing next to Shigaraki. His eyes narrowed as he tried to process the unsettling sight before him.*

Dabi: "I was going to ask you the same thing. But the person you were fighting was it Overhaul?"

*He asked, his expression mirroring Dabi's confusion.*

First Connection Dabi: "Yes, it was Overhaul. We were mid-battle when this weird portal thing suddenly appeared."

Shigaraki: "Overhaul is here?"

*He asked the second Dabi.*

First Connection Dabi: "Overhaul is indeed here."

*He confirmed, his gaze never leaving the original Dabi.*

First Connection Dabi: "He crashed nearby, injured but alive. Probably sulking somewhere, blaming himself for losing to me."

*Shigaraki smirked at the thought, clearly enjoying the idea of Overhaul's frustration.*

Dabi: "Hey everyone, focus. That Overhaul could be a possible link."

*He says loudly to grab everyone's attention.*

First Connection Dabi: "I know he's a link, bro. Random told me he's the first link."

*He says.*

Dabi: "So he's the first link. We have to find him immediately. I know we're supposed to be searching for the clones, but the first link being here is extremely dangerous."

*He says firmly, his brow furrowed with concern.*

Dabi: "We must prioritize finding Overhaul before anything else."

First Connection Dabi: "Nah, he'll come find us himself... mostly me."

He says with a hint of unease.

First Connection Dabi: "He hates me for stopping him from killing Eri. He'll be seeking revenge, and that makes me or you his primary target."

(At the other side of the abandoned building).

First Link Overhaul: "That piece of shit."

*He got up from the rubble, healing himself from his injuries. His body mended itself, bones snapping back into place, bruises fading. He stood up, his form perfect again, not a single mark on him.*

First Link Overhaul: "Where did he go?"

*He focused, using the Book's power to sense Dabi's location. The book glowed faintly in his mind as he concentrated. Suddenly, a mental map formed in his mind, showing Dabi's exact position a few blocks away.*

First Link Overhaul: "Found him."

Orgullo: "Hold on, First Link!"

*Suddenly, a cult member emerged from the shadows, his robes stained with blood. *

*First Link Overhaul stared at him, confusion etched on his face.*

First Link Overhaul: "Who the fuck are you supposed to be and why are you trying to stop me?"

*His glare intensified, his patience wearing thin. The cult member stumbled back, clearly intimidated by Overhaul's presence and tone.*

Orgullo: "How did you even get here?"

*The cult member straightened his robes, his eyes gleaming with a strange fervor.*

First Link Overhaul: "A portal brought you here?"

*His attention was only half on the cult member. His gaze flicked to the side, noticing something far more sinister than a goat cult member- a shadow demon materializing right beside them. Its eyes glowed red as it observed the scene silently.*

Orgullo: "Do whatever you want, First Link."

*The cult member shrugged and shuffled back into the shadows, seemingly unconcerned with Overhaul's disinterest. But the shadow demon remained, its form wavering slightly as it turned its attention fully to Overhaul. A low growl rumbled in its chest.*

Shadow Demon: "So you're the first link..."

*it spoke, voice like gravel.*

First Link Overhaul: "..."

*He started to walk away, dismissing the shadow demon as some weird side effect of this strange world. But the demon followed him silently, its footsteps echoing ominously behind him. Overhaul could feel its gaze.*

(At the Abandoned Building).

Shigaraki: "So we have two Dabis. This isn't weird at all."

*He muttered, his voice dripping with sarcasm. He shook his head, trying to wrap his mind around the absurdity of the situation. Two versions of Dabi?*

First Connection Dabi: "Believe me, it's strange to be here in this world."

*He said, his voice carrying a similar tone of disbelief. He looked around, taking in the unfamiliar scenery.*

Dabi: "I guess we'll just keep looking for the clones since First Link Overhaul will find us."

*Everyone nodded in agreement, though his expression was troubled. He knew that Overhaul was extremely powerful and dangerous. If he caught up to them, it could mean serious trouble.*

First Connection Dabi: "He's coming. I sense he found my location."

*He suddenly tensed up, his senses picking up on a heavy and ominous energy approaching rapidly.*

*The Original Dabi immediately turned alert, flames flickering nervously at his fingertips.*

Dabi: "Shit... how did he locate us so fast?"

Shigaraki: "Wait for real? He's coming here right now!?"

*He exclaimed, his eyes widening in shock and fear. The ground began to tremble slightly as the heavy footsteps grew louder. Suddenly, a dark figure burst through the trees, his presence overwhelming.*

Dabi: "Overhaul... The First Link..."

First Link Overhaul: "You piece of shit!"

*He growled, his eyes widening slightly in confusion. He saw two Dabis standing there - identical in every way. His brows furrowed deeply.*

First Link Overhaul: "How the actual fuck..."

*He murmured, trying to make sense of the situation. He knew there was only one Dabi initially.*

First Connection Dabi: "You want me."

*He stepped forward confidently, his voice low and challenging. Overhaul's confusion was replaced with a fierce glare as he locked eyes with the second Dabi. A dark smirk spread across Overhaul's face.*

First Link Overhaul: "Oh? Is that so? You think I want YOU?"

First Connection Dabi: "Well, yeah, dumbass. I did stop you from killing Eri."

*He sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. He knew exactly how to push Overhaul's buttons. The Original Dabi watched silently, knowing that this confrontation was inevitable.*

First Link Overhaul: "So it's YOU!"

*He roared, his quirk activating instantly. The ground beneath them erupted into sharp spikes that shot towards both Dabis simultaneously.*

Dabi: "..."

(In his mind).

"Why is the first link Overhaul here with the other me? Is it because they're gathering all of us in one place, or is the book planning to kill me along with the other Dabi?"

*He uses his blue flames to shoot up in the air and dodge the spikes.*

"We all have to work together to stop him."

(Out of his mind).

This will continue in the next chapter.
