MY Hero Academia: Infinity War
Chapter 1: The Girl who Fell to Earth
UA isn't your average high school. Even in a world where 80% of the population have superhuman powers known as "quirks" UA is special. It's where the future greatest heroes in the world are taught.
Class 1-A, the students had been through more together than many would in their whole lives. Tonight they sat in their common room huddled around a glowing tv screen, the only light in the room.
The newsman on the screen continued to drone on but he had mostly been repeating the same information over and over in different words as the station scrambled for information.
"For those of you just joining us, I can confirm that an alien spacecraft crash landed downtown earlier tonight. No one was harmed in the crash and the police quickly cordoned off an area and allowed top ranked hero Endeavor to approach the craft. We currently have no information on the aliens but Endeavor and the government has promised to make an official announcement in just a few moments."
The silence was palpable. In a space shared by 20 super powered teens any kind of quiet was hard to come by but now it hung over them like a shroud. A small voice pierced the veil
"Do you guys think... that they're friendly?" Hagakure asked. The others looked to her as if trying to read the expression on her face, this was impossible as she was completely invisible; her clothes like her question hanging in midair. She felt a reassuring pressure as Ojiro a boy with short blond hair a thick prehensile tail squeezed her hand.
"The news said they crashed. They are probably just scared, landing on a new planet is probably a lot to take in." He responded with a shrug.
Iida, the class president leaned forward stroking his chin, the light bounced off his glasses obscuring his eyes.
"Perhaps, but it's also possible that they crashed because they were in danger, maybe they were being pursued by some kind of alien villain." Iida said. Ojiro glared at him in the dark as he felt his hand being crushed. He opened his mouth to respond but was cut off by a small green haired boy placing his hand on Iida's shoulder.
"Even if that's the case the pro heroes will have it under control. No alien creature is a match for someone like Endeavor." Midoriya, the bright optimistic boy often known as Deku smiled reassuringly at Hagakure. Iida leaned back.
"Well there is no way to actually know that Midoriya. These beings are completely alien to us for all we know they have their own quirks far beyond…"
"Iida!" the shout echoed through the hall, Ochaco Uraraka, the sweet young heroine known as Uravity store daggers at her friend. "You're scaring her, cut it out." Iida's face turned red.
"There's no reason to be scared anyway." Bakugo, his voice rough his hair a messy explosion mirroring his own explosive powers lay splayed across a chair. "These E.T. nerds spent their time building space ships while we spent our time getting stronger. I may not know much about aliens but I know something about humanity: The human race can kick the hell out of anything." Next to Bakugo Kirishima, a boy with fiery red hair and the power to become as hard as stone laughed at his friend's boast. Even by the low light of the TV everyone could see the pair's self-satisfied grins.
Not all the UA students were huddled around a TV screen. Across the city one had been whisked away in a black car and escorted by police to a tall intimidating building. Shoto Todoroki, son of the current number one hero Endeavor walked passed a sea of reporters and passed a wall of police decked out in military style gear. His expression gave away nothing as he crossed the building and rode the elevator to the top floor. His father's office was crawling with people. Important people in suits, dangerous men with guns at their hips and, most shocking to Todaroki several people in colorful outfits. Other top heroes deep in his father's inner sanctum.
He was lead to a private meeting room where his father sat deep in thought. His flaming facial hair lighting up the dimly lit room.
"If you've called me out of school. If you've allowed other heroes to help you. On your first true test as the number one hero at that. I guess that means the news isn't good." Endeavor looked up at his son. He hadn't heard him come in, he had been too lost in though. Half of Shoto's hair was red and half was white a testament to his dual powers, creating ice with one half and flame like his own with the other. His face on his red half bore a terrible burn scar, an unfortunate gift from his mother.
"Shoto." Endeavor said, his voice was almost too quiet to hear. Todoroki felt something in the pit of his stomach.
"What the hell did you find in that spaceship?" Todoroki asked, his eyes widening in shock. He had always known his father the hero Endeavor as a proud warrior, the most effective hero on the planet. Second in his illustrious career to a true living legend, All Might, the symbol of peace whose very presence had kept evil at bay for years. Now, he just looked tired. He held a glowing stone in his palm.
"A warning."
Reporters crammed into the room. At the head several serious looking government officials looked on as did the chief of police. Endeavor towered above them all his flames danced from his face and costume. He gripped the podium and addressed the crowd.
"Earlier this evening a space craft crashed into the city. The occupant warned us that a group of powerful villains from outer space are coming here to attack the earth." The reporters surged questions shouted in an un-matching chorus. This cacophony was silenced by a surge of flame from Endeavor, the heat from which could be felt across the room.
"I swear as the number one hero that we will defeat these invaders as we have defeated every villain that has come against the forces of justice. As a precaution however. The city will be evacuated ahead of the invasion and all available heroes will be brought in to quickly crush this gang."
At UA the students looked on in shock.
"All heroes? Does that mean?"
"We're only provisional but we're still heroes, surely…"
"Hell yeah let's see what these space men are made of."
On the screen Endeavor looked directly into the camera it seemed as though he could see through it sending a message just for them.
"As of right now. Every hero on this planet is at war."
High above the planet two massive metal crafts began their slow decent towards Japan.
Here's the preview: Next time an alien army attacks the city but only class 1-A stands against them. Who is the secret monster attacking the hospital and what is she hoping to find? To find these answers our heroes will have to go beyond, plus ultra!
