This is another one-shot that seemed interesting to write. "Deku in wormverse" isn't new, but with the BHNA world being Earth-Alph and Deku having contact with them seemed like a good idea. Still a one-shot, sadly, though anyone could take up the idea and write a full story with it. Now all we need is All Might to show up and show the capes how being a hero is supposed to be.
'It's just a small patrol Taylor.' Taylor thought furiously as she ran across an alleyway, hoping beyond anything that she could lose Lung, who caught sight of her as he was swarmed by the multitude of bugs. 'There's no danger to this at all Now I have a very angry dragon on me!' Taylor turned a corner that led to a street with no streetlights.
Panting, she hid in the shadows once more in order to collect herself. Not a moment later she heard a roar and a crash. Barely a block away was Lung, roaring as his body was still being stung by the many bugs Taylor tried to control. Tried was the key word, as the bugs began dying off before they can get near Lung.
Taylor wanted to cry, but she stayed strong with the thought that things couldn't escalate further.
This thought was proven wrong as Lung grew even bigger and began running in her general direction.
"!" Lung, having gone more draconic, wasn't able to provide any coherent words and only gave roars.
Taylor ran the opposite direction, remembering how she aimed the pepper spray wrong, allowing Lung to gain distance on her and was forced to run away.
'Just how bad is my luck?!' Taylor thought miserably before trampling on a person.
"Ahh!" Two screams were heard as both bodies were tangled on each other. Pushing the other person away from her and standing up, she was about to warn said person about what the hell were they doing out at night before hesitating.
In front of her was a kid (he wasn't that tall from what she can see) dressed in red, white and blue garb with green hair. He rubbed his neck and started spouting what seemed like apologies and was bowing. It took a second before Taylor recognized the language as Japanese. Shaking her head, she began warning the kid.
"Hey! There's a dragon, Lung you know! Right there." Taylor pointed before she felt her stomach falling. Lung had gotten extremely close and was only several meters away. Grabbing the kid's arm she led him away.
"Eh?! Doko wa Aru Maito desuka?! Are wa ryuu desu!" The green haired kid was easily pacing himself with Taylor, and was still able to ask what she believed were questions.
"Can you speak english? Hah, I can't, hah, understand you." Taylor was losing breath as she ran her fastest, ignoring the roars that were getting closer and the heat that accompanied with the dragon.
"Ore-I mean here, I'll help." The green haired kid easily picked up Taylor and started running faster.
"Wh-What?" Taylor looked at the kid in worry before she held on for dear life to him as he jumped onto a roof of a convenience store.
"Okay, this isn't good. Uh, excuse me, would you tell me what's going on?"
The kid was blushing, which would be funny if he didn't easily pick her up and run faster than her.
"That guy is Lung! How do you not know what's going on?!. We have to call the PRT or-or wait..." Taylor became mortified as she saw that the kid had no pockets, so no phone on him. They both couldn't call anyone for help, though she hoped that the destruction was loud enough for at least a civilian to call.
"Lung? I don't know who that is. And PRT? A weird name for the Hero's Association in America, though Americans are a bit weird." The kid started babbling to himself, ignoring the fact that there was a dragon following them!
'RAAAAHG!" Taylor covered her ears, but the roar still came through. She looked away from the kid before looking directly into Lung's draconic eyes. He gave what seemed to be a smile before shooting out a fireball.
Taylor couldn't react, not with the impending doom that she was staring in front of her. She couldn't move, the fear overtaking her body. What could she do-?
"Full Cowl!" Taylor was thrown across the roof, avoiding the fireball entirely. Lifting her head, she saw the kid standing in front of her, his arms up, prepared to fight. He was shaking, but he looked back at her and smiled.
"Do-Don't worry, fo-for I am here!" Looking in front, he yelled as he ran towards Lung, ignoring the fireballs that were being thrown at him.
"AHHHHh!" "RAAAAAGH!"
Deku was in Full Cowl mode, allowing him to easily avoid the fireballs, but the dragon was already angry. It wanted blood.
This villain, it wanted to kill the girl. As Deku avoided the hands that tried to grab him, he had one plan in mind; get rid of the dragon.
All Might wasn't here to save him, he had to save himself this time. To do that, he had to take up the mantle of a hero of peace and justice.
For the girl behind him, he was the hero she needed, a hero that was always there to help!
Jumping, Deku unleashed 100% of One for All into his right arm. Cocking it back, he gave a shout that echoed the street.
"SMASH!" Punching the dragon in the face, the arm broke, but it got the job done.
Blood splattered around the darkened street, the fireballs ceasing to exist, and the panes of every window in the area shattered from the force.
What lay on the street was not a dragon, but a large man who was unconscious.
Deku looked up at the roof of the store and saw the girl he rescued looking at him. Holding his arm in pain, tears threatening to escape his eyes from such a feeling, and smiled at Taylor.
"I, am Deku! Its nice to meet you!" Giving the largest smile he could muster, Deku exclaimed this before falling down in exhaustion.
Taylor blinked, not believing what she just saw. This kid was a hero? Was he from New Wave? And how did he beat Lung in one punch?!
There were many questions, but Taylor only had one thing to say to the kid who rescued her as she stood up, tears starting to form on her eyes.
She got down from the roof and walked up to the kid, who was now named Deku, and sobbed on him.
"Th-thank you!" She was alive, all thanks to him.
Armsmaster pulled up to see the crime lord Lung unconscious on the street and a cape crying on a green haired child.
Buildings and the streets were destroyed, the smell of tar emitting in the area. Armsmaster had one statement that echoed his extreme confusion.
"What the hell happened here?"
