So my classmate Nagisa got blinded by molten anti-matter from our teacher exploding, the same explosion totally destroyed half of my friend Sosuke Suguya's arm, shattered the hip of the class gymnast Hinata Okano, placed the class maternal figure Sumire Hara into a coma she is still in, and the class actress and sweets expert Kaede Kayano was dead. The rest of us were fine, well most of them. You see I was hit with anti-matter was well, but it was as hot as the stuff that hit Nagisa. But it did changed me in some ways, but I'm not that worried. You see it turned my skin bulletproof and made my muscles and bones denser than normal. I'm not sure how but hey am I complaining? Nope. So once we graduated and went our separate ways, I kept what happened that night to myself and kept working at my dad's shop.
Over the next decade I drifted away from the area and found myself in Akihabara and started working at a parts store there, simple and boring for me right after all the excitement all those years ago. SO now I find myself in the Otaku centre of the world, somewhere I knew my former classmate Fuwa would like to be; she was always into that anime stuff. Oh where are my manners you haven't heard my name yet. Its Taisei...Taisei Yoshida and this is one crazy ride. Just lately I've been hearing about vigilantes tearing up my old town. But I'm happy here in Akihabara, where nothing like that is happening
Yoshida was counting the inventory when the door to the shop he worked at chimes its bell
"Excuse me" a voice cried out
"I'll be out in a moment" Yoshida said as he walked to the counter "Oh hey Luna"
"Hey Taisei, we need some parts for the oven again, here's the list" Luna said, she had blonde hair, green eyes and a silver and white maid outfit
"I'll be there in ten minutes okay?" Yoshida asked
"Sure thing, I know Solar's looking forward to it" Luna said walking out. Yoshida smiled; he was quite fond of the two maids at the Solstice Maid cafe, namely because they're like sisters to the former mechanic. He smiled before grabbing the last part, once he did he walked back to the café
"Welcome sir" a girl who looked like Lunar, wearing a gold and orange maid dress only she looked nervous for some reason "Oh Yoshida
"He's the parts you want. What's wrong?" Yoshida asked before a man in a suit holding a sawn off shotgun appeared and grabbed Solar.
"Beat it, cafe's closed" The man said
"I'm just the handyman" Yohsida said
"Oh yeah, well we've got it" the man said shooting Yoshida. Solar closed her eyes and waited for the sound of buckshot on the floor
"That was the fifth shirt this month" Yoshida said before he grabbed the gun and twisted it. The man looked at his gun and back before Yoshida just punched him out.
"How many are left?" Yoshida asked
"Three" Solar said
"Thanks" Yoshida said he walked out the back of the shop to see various maids and costumers on the floor.
"Who are you?" a thug asked
"Just a mechanic" Yoshida said as he threw the thug out of the place. "And you look like a bad K-Pop band member" he muttered before he walked over to another one "Who hired you?" he asked menacingly
"We work for Koh, who in turns works for the Kingpin" the thug said
"And who's the Kingpin?" Yoshida asked
"No one but his top five generals know" the thug said panicked
"And how do I find Koh?" Yoshida asked
"He rarely comes here, he uses a proxy to conduct business in the area. The only time they actually conduct business is when its super important" the thug said
"And is there any important business coming up here soon?" Yoshida asked
"I don't fucking know!" the thug said before he was hit
"Don't curse" Yoshida said
"Okay, okay I don't know when he'll be here next" the thug said
"Now get out of here and don't come back" Yoshida said as he threw the guy out. After that was done he pulled off his ruined shirt and just sighed as he sat in a booth. Soon Lunar walked over with a tray setting it down. Yoshida smiled at the girl
"One Mocha milkshake, one choc-orange cheesecake and a fresh shirt" Lunar said as Yoshida took the shirt and slipped on, "Maybe tonight you and I can have a 'cup of coffee?'" Lunar asked
"Maybe" Yoshida said as he started into his snack. "But I usually don't drink coffee"
That night Yoshida flopped down on the bed he had in the apartment he was living in with the news in the background
"Tonight in Tokyo a nightclub was besieged by the vigilante Moon Knight, it is believed he was there to find out information about a kidnapping victim, who was kidnapped outside the club she was working at last night" The reporter said making Yoshida sigh before he looked up at his ceiling
"Good thing I got out of that area. I just hope they don't step into my turf" he said as he closed his eyes. "Just like I don't step onto their turf" he sighed as he fell asleep thinking of Hara. It was some time later but he woke up when he heard a gunshot outside and scream. Grunting Yoshida went over to his window and looked out to see a mugging, frowning he walked downstairs and outside. Across the street was a couple and a mugger who was holding a smoking gun
"HEY!" Yoshida asked storming across the street and grasping the gun which he ripped out of the mugger's hands and twisted it into a pretzel
"Shit" the mugger said when Yoshida dumped him into a dumpster and made sure he was staying put as he called for emergency services.
"Thank you" the woman said as she kept pressure on the gunshot wound as they heard sirens
"Who are you?" the man asked coughing
"Just a guy trying to get some sleep" Yohsida said
The morning came too quickly for Yoshida's liking. And he got up and turned on the TV before going about his day. Soon a knock sounded on the door making Yoshida sigh
"Come in" he said pouring some milk into his cereal
"You had to smash up Solstice didn't you?" a man asked walking into Yoshida's apartment
"Good morning Takebayashi, how are you, would you like a drink?" Yoshida asked
"No I'm fine thanks" Takebayashi said
"Good, now I had to" Yoshida said
"How come?" Takebayashi said
"This Kingpin character that's been hiding in the shadows. Apparently an old pain in our ass is back and working for him" Yoshida said
"Who?" Takebayashi asked performing a check-up on Yoshida to make sure he wasn't in any danger because of his unbreakable skin
"Kohyama" Yoshida said
"That ugly mug, what's he doing in Akihabara?"
"HE isn't, he's using lieutenants to do his dirty work and only shows up when its important. Apparently that's how the Kingpin appartently works" Yoshida said
"So what are you going to do with this information?" Takebayashi said
"Just keep an eye on things here and pound the weasel when he shows up" Yoshida said
"And maybe" Yoshida said "Plus I think Lunar wants' to have coffee with me, but I told her I don't drink coffee"
"Good grief" Takebayashi said
"What?" Yoshida asked confused
"Not that kind of coffee," Takebayashi said
"What do you mean?" Yoshida asked
"She wants to sleep with you" Takebayashi said
"Really?" Yoshida asked
"I've seen how she looks at you" Takebayashi said smirking as he started to pack up.
"Thanks man" Yoshida said as he place his bowl in the sink.
Yoshida went back to the parts store he was employed in when he saw Lunar then smiling with a bento for him. Yoshida shook his head and accepted the box before opening up
"You spoil me too much" Yoshida said as he booted up the store's computer "Now why are you here
"To pay you" Lunar said
"For what?" Yoshida asked
"The parts, and for saving us again" Lunar said
"No you're not" Yoshida said
"Celeste's orders" Lunar said as Yoshida took the money, put half in the till and handed the other half back.
"You paid double the amounts of the part's original cost" Yoshida said
"Thanks" she said taking her change, bowing and left.
"She's a sweet kid" Yoshida said
"You said you were beaten by some lunkhead?" a man in a suit asked a thug
"No quite, it was him. The guy who's been jumping to everyone's peril. Incredibly strong" the thug said
"Taisei Yoshida; I thought he was missing. But turns out he's been here all the time" the man in the suit said "This could cause a problem for my boss"
"I know sir" the thug said
"Which is bad considering he's club the Red Dragon Lotus club was hit by Moon Knight this could be problematic for him if any more interfere with his business practices" the man said as he dismissed the thug. Taking a sip of champagne he picked up a cigar and inhaled. "Especially since they have those two interfering with his Okinawa operations" he said
"So we best make sure that this hero doesn't mess up with you at all" a guard said
"No, of course not; make sure that this hero is out of the picture by tomorrow night otherwise. You're going BASE jumping off of the Radio Kaikan building" the man said
"You got it Koh" the guard said walking out as Koh took a sip of more champagne
Yoshida was on break so he headed for the nearest beef bowl place, one that he was recommended to by Muramatsu, he had eaten the bento Lunar gave him, but was still hungry. One of the minor side effects to his ability, he had to eat double the amount he normally did, it was one of the side effects he could live with. Once he finished his lunch Yoshida went outside to see the same group of thugs from yesterday across the street, walking over there Yoshida just looked at them and the scampered off back to where ever they came from. He gave a chuckled and continued on back to the parts shop he worked at. What he was unaware of was the suited man aka Koh who was looking at him
"So that's the great hero, shit" Koh said "Looks like the rivalry's about to be reignited" he chuckled as he ordered his driver to get him out of there while Yoshida was still nearby.
When he got back to his job, he quite enjoyed it coming from a mechanical place. But every now and then he would peek outside to see how the world was going and what he saw was not cool
"What are you doing here?" He asked as Terasaka walked in his shop
"Can't a guy catch up?" Terasaka asked
"You could have but then you sold yourself out and became a member of the Hand" Yoshida said
"And the offer for you join us is still there" Terasaka said
"And I'll tell you what I told you then, piss off" Yoshida snarled.
"Well, can't say I tried" Terasaka said "I'll Hazam that you said hi" Terasaka said
"Yeah you do that" Yoshida said as he looked upwards. Outside was Koh who saw Hand Commander Terasaka leaving
"The Hand's here as well. Great that's all we need" He muttered as he drove off with his driver once again.
That night Yoshida went to a bar and sat down at a stool.
"Well howdy stranger what can I get for you tonight?" the barmaid asked who was dressed like a cowgirl
"Just a beer Ayame" Yoshida said as a beer was placed in front of him
"Ya'll alright there Tai. You seem wearier than usual when you come into mah bar" Ayane said
"An old friend came to see me today"
"And what was wrong with this old friend?" Ayame asked
"He joined up with a bad crowd" Yoshida sighed taking a swig of his drink
"I see" Ayame said as Takebayashi came by and got a ginger beer
"Well we all can't be the best" the doctor said "I mean looked at Taiga"
"What about him?" Yoshida asked
"He's a professional journalist and we thought he would do something else" Takebayashi explained
"Yeah I hear you man" Yoshida said
"So you boys want to watch the game?" Ayame said
"You get gridiron here?"
"Sure do" Ayame said turning the game on before getting her own beer and kicking back as the patrons of her beer started to take interesting in the game on the screen.
The next morning Yoshida went out early for a jog. He didn't know why but the air felt different and that meant he wanted to jog to see what was up with the situation around here. And finally he found the problem: a crime scene approaching it he was stopped
"Whoa there big guy" an officer said holding out his hand to stop Yoshida
"Sorry Akira, got distracted there for a moment" Yoshida said "What happened?"
"Just what it looks like. kidnapping gone wrong, father's dead, wife's in hospital not sure if she's going to make it and the daughter's been kidnapped
"Let me guess, this mysterious Koh" Yoshida said
"Looks like it" Akira said walking off. Yoshida looked off to the side and saw somebody who was sketchy, he walked in that direction before grabbing him and dragging him into an ally and lifted him up
"Where are she?" Yoshida asked glaring at the guy
"Here, this is where she being held" the guy said holding out a piece of paper which Yoshida grabbed while dropping the guy. Walking off the guy got back up and shouted at Yoshida "They're waiting for you, you know. That this is one big trap; you've become famous you knwo and the boss knows"
"Who cares" Yoshida said
What Yoshida got to the abandoned building the girl was being held he noticed a guard out front, he walked up calmly to the guard
"Hey" Yoshida said before punching the guard out and kicking the door in making everyone inside scamper around trying to grab their guns and once they did, quickly opened fire on Yoshida only to have the bullets bounce off of him and hit them as he calmly walked through the hallway; stopping every now and again to punch out a thug who tried to attack him, he quickly made it into the room where the girl was being kept. Yoshida coolly walked up to her and ripped the chains holding her in half like they were nothing but paper
"BEHIND YOU!" the girl screamed as a man with a fire axe attacked him, only for the axe-head to break.
"That seriously did not just happen" Yoshida said as he looked at the thug who was now holding a broken axe
"Whatever man, I mean I'm only doing this because I need the money man; life's a bitch to live at the moment" the thug said
"What's your name?" Yoshida asked
"Koushiro" the axe holder said
"Well Koushiro, in one hour you head to a shop with a large green sign saying All-Access Parts and you can make some money that way, alright" Yoshida said
"Yeah sure man" Koushiro said
"Oh and Koushiro, one more thing man" Yoshida said
"Yeah man" Koushiro said
"Quit the cursing" Yoshida said
An hour later, Koushiro showed up at where Yoshida told him to be looking more presentable. The hoodie and ragged jeans had been replaced by neater looking clothes and his vivid red hair had been tamed. He walked into the shop seeing Yoshida smiling
"So you're a manager or something?"
"I'm the owner, and before now the only worker"
"Wow, that's cool man" koushiro said
"Come on in and I'll show you around, this is the main area where we man the counter and deal with the customers, that green list is our regulars, blue clipboard are the order forms, and that jar over there is the swear jar, you swear, you pay" Yoshida said
"Sweet, so when do I begin?"
"You started when you step through that door" Yoshida said before hearing some yen hit the jar
"Bitching" Koushiro smirked manning the front counter.
"I think this could work" Yoshida said smiling
G'day Guys Grizz here with something new: Taisei Yoshida, an Assassination Classroom Dark Heroic side story, which is a first for many things, the first time I've written a fic without Nagisa being the main character, the first proper fanfic with Yoshida as the star and the first side story for ACDH! Now it will kind of bridge the gap between ACDH Vol 1. and Vol 2, which I've started writing, so you'll get a character in Vol 2 appearing here.
Now this fic is inspired by the Marvel Super Hero who punched Netflix out: Luke Cage! which I've only seen one episode which I liked, just not as much as the others you know Daredevil and Jessica Jones, but it was only one episode so I may like it more; I wanted to do something with Yoshida and when Luke Cage appeared so did an idea for him which I hope works
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
