Izuku sure did love to run his mouth, sometimes. He hadn't learned his lesson about that, it would seem. Like .. no matter how many times it got him in trouble, he just wouldn't stop. Probably because there was literally no difference at all.
.. Izuku. Well, Izuku may bluff and say that he's expecting an attack, but really? He wasn't. He wasn't expecting a clanmate to turn on him no matter how badly they treated each other. So -- maybe that's why, when Stryker launches, Izuku isn't ready. He could dodge. He could duck out of the way, meet Stryker's attack with one of his own, but he can't. The dragon's ears twitch and his eyes go wide and his talons only manage a meagre spark or two before he's on the ground and shit he didn't think this through.
Claws scrabble over his scales, but they dont give, luckily. They do, however, give under Stryker's teeth. Izuku's scales weren't the strongest things in the world, and even Stryker's vite manages to crunch through. Shit. Shit. Realization comes, and Izuku scrabbles to push his talons into Stryker's pelt, but he's too late. That was -- suspicious. That wasn't a fight. That was one bite. And his head already feels weird by the time Izuku is on his feet, tail aggressively sweeping. Despite it having been injected straight into his neck, it'll take a minute for it affect. He was big enough, now, that it'd take a minute to fully take him down. He just .. hm. His head is woozy. .. Poison? Izuku didn't have time to fetch an antidote. He needed to .. make a big scene, didn't he? Was it even poison? Or he was bleeding out, but Izuku wasn't bleeding terribly heavy, though it was kind of nasty. It wouldn't affect him this quickly, anyways. Izuku knew how his blood worked, after all the times he'd gotten injured, y'know?
"What did you do," He growls, maybe a little hysterically. His head is spinning, but it's only subtle, and he needs to act fast. A big scene, right? Not a screaming fest. Too obvious. Just enough to bring somebody over, right? Uh. Though they might. Get hurt .. too? Hmm. A few minutes .. max? Assuming it was poison. It was probably poison. He'd deal with a venom victim, once, that was pretty bad. Izuku -- takes a deep breath. He's a little too unsteady to rush Stryker, isn't he? "Poison? Or .. venom? Something else entirely?" People liked to monologue when he pushed them, and Izuku manages to raise his voice just enough to be heard. Not that it'd be hard. I mean, Stryker was right there. He hadn't left. He was going to trick them, right? Hm .. if Izuku did pass out in a minute, what would be obvious? .. Electricity was his signature. He could manage that. His legs are trembling and what the fuck is with his head and vision. Not good. Not good. The crackling of electricity takes a few moments to ramp up but then he'd be too obvious and he wants to vomit, but he needs --.
As fast as he can manage, immediately after his claws begin to spark, Izuku clumsily rears up to slam an electrified paw over -- well, whatever he could reach, on Stryker's form. If he fails, he'll just try again. It wasn't meant to be anything big. Did he have the strength for that? Questionable. His intent was really just to do whatever obvious damage he could, just in case he passed out before he could say anything. And, y'know, he probably would. He just had .. what, a minute? Breathing was weird. Hard. But he'd just have to make an obvious enough burn, that was all. He'd gotten into enough fights people could recognize what electric burns looked like? He just needed a second. Just one. Except his movements .. were kind of shaky. Uncoordinated. Honestly, his only saving grace here would be that Stryker probably wasn't expecting him to attack, when he was clearly feeling all kinds of bad and shaky right there. Like a single push would send him to the ground. Or himself. He could probably send himself to the ground pretty fast.
