Recovery girl stepped out as the mother burst into the room, She didn't see what happened but heard the boy's body slam into a wall so it would appear he was shocked. She made her way to the other recovery room, the one designated for the heroes and teachers that were under her care.
She knocked on the slightly open door and a gruff voice answered.
"Come in." She did so and nodded at the bandaged Aizawa Shota, and he sighed. He got up and followed behind her, waiting as she stopped by her main office to grab some documents, and then they made their way straight to Nedzu's office.
The small bear, mouse, muskrat whatever he was was waiting for them in the hall and opened the door to let them inside before closing it behind him and jumping on his desk.
"What an interesting couple of days we have had." Nedzu murmured and Shota scoffed, holding up his arm that was in a sling. "More than interesting in my opinion."
Nedzu nodded and gestured to the silent recovery girl. "You had something to report?" He asked kindly and she nodded, standing up.
"The boy, as I thought from my first assessment, has more to him than meets the eye," She paused as she shuffled through the papers, clearing her throat loudly as she found the right one. "His body is highly advanced, however critically injured it may be, we knew that, however. The real marvel is what can be changed."
"He is not some sort of experiment my dear doctor." The principal said kindly, though the malice dripping off of him was easily palpable in the air. She shook her head in disgust and continued as Aizawa nodded to the principal's comment.
"That is not what I mean at all. What I mean is that the boy is only half, maybe even less capable than what he could be, and it is possible to make it so he reaches that level." She placed a paper in front of both Aizawa and Nedzu, who looked at in interest and slight revulsion.
"He has been made so that his body is incapable of progress, due to the implants that allow him to live, they are a boon and a hindrance. Most likely made so they could keep him on a leash." She cleared her throat and brought out another paper.
"This, however, is the best part of this," She placed it in front of the principal, "He can be fixed."
"Are you absolutely sure?" The small rat bear asked, and she nodded before Aizawa cleared his throat. They both looked at him and he frowned.
Have we thought of the possible downsides to that?" He asked looking between them and Nedzu looked at the paper again, his small paw scratching under his furry chin.
He continued, "Even though we have only seen him fight villains, that does not mean he is on the side of heroes, from the circumstances he could very well have only been on our side for the sole reason of them having this Mei girl, and we were only bystanders." He clarified and Recovery Girl nodded uncertainly, whilst Nedzu hummed in thought.
"The benefits would be quite substantial, seeing as he was strong enough and fast enough to be able to take on what those villains were calling a-" Nedzu brought up his hands and made quotation marks, "All Might Killer," He said and scoffed.
Aizawa huffed at that remark and gestured at his arm. "Bastard was able to break my arm with a twist of fingers, I'd say that even if he couldn't take the man on, he would at least be able to fight him on even footing." He grumbled and the principal nodded.
"Perhaps I am underestimating, I was not there after all, and I was unable to analyze the creature's skill before this Izuriya fried its brain."
"Speaking of that," Recovery girl cut in, bringing out another paper, "The boy's control of his quirk is absolutely astounding, He was able to down an opponent of All Might's skill level at best and able to sue his quirk in a wide range to alter the area to his advantage." She stopped and looked at both the principal and Aizawa, the latter of which was looking at her incredulously.
"Wide area, what do you mean?" He looked between them before putting a hand to his chin and leaning back. "he was fast and had a type of emitter quirk that seemed close to form of energy kinesis, but nothing widespread from what I could see." He explained and Recovery girl nodded.
"You wouldn't have, no one would have save for maybe him." She murmured and brought out a graph of the area that mapped out quirk based disturbances during the USJ incident. Both the principal and Aizawa gaped at the graph. The entirety of the area with the courtyard, specifically where and when the villains and Izuriya went head to head, was mapped out in red, almost purple.
"He was manipulating the area as to give him a better advantage, maybe he applied his kinesis to everything so he could use it at will, maybe his quirk needs time to be fully utilized." She murmured and Aizawa shook his head. "No that's not right."
He stood up and started pacing, looking at the graph. "He was there the instant the villains entered, which was through a portal. He would have to be ridiculously fast to get there, or knew where they were going to strike." He gestured with one hand wildly. "He was practically berserk at that point, had only one focus, beat them and get the girl."
He looked at both of them and returned to his seat, reclining again. "Plus he was able to evade and strike All Might, for all the good it did him." He gestured to Nedzu, "He hadn't even thought of encountering the man, but was able to manipulate his surroundings and the man as if he had been there to the whole time." He pointed at the graph, studying it, "This is something else."
Nedzu nodded and started pacing himself, albeit only on his desk.
"This is interesting, it could imply he has more than one quirk, maybe a visual one to enhance his senses, or even an empathic one…" He continued mumbling to himself and looked up as recovery girl cleared her throat again, looking sheepish. "Is there more?" He asked, and she nodded.
"I forgot a more interesting part of him, one I came across but barely thought of at the time." She pulled out a final page and handed it to Nedzu who cocked an eyebrow. "Really?" He asked and she nodded.
"Yes, the boy is only fifteen." Aizawa sat up, sputtering. "He could take on the symbol of peace, and was almost as tall as me, how is the boy fifteen?" He asked incredulously and Recovery girl shrugged while sighing.
"Both he and Mei are currently and mentally fifteen, but their bodies are eighteen. Perhaps whoever had them had a quirk that aged them to a certain specific so as to meet their goals." She muttered and Aizawa cursed.
"Damn villains, what ELSE did they do to him?" He asked and Recovery girl gave a dry and soured chuckle. "That is it actually from what I could tell, though the multiple quirk theory may change that." She said humorlessly.
They sat in silence for a moment and Aizawa spoke again, this time in a rather quieter tone.
"All that's left to know is if we fix his body or not." He mumbled, Recovery Girl already glaring at him. Before she could berate him the Principals phone rang and he went to pick it up, the phone almost the size of him as he spoke into it.
"Yes?" He paused and his trademark smile appeared on his face. "Oh this is fantastic, send him to me immediately. This will help me with a decision I'm making." He paused again and nodded as if the person he was speaking to could see him. "Yes yes, I promise you, ma'am, we will make the accommodations no need to worry, we will take care of it all."
He listened for a second and thanked the caller again before setting the phone down and smiling at both Recovery girl and Eraserhead. "I think we have found our answer."
"How many did you beat?"
"I don't know, I wasn't keeping count. Quite a few."
The older Todoroki growled in irritation at the obvious blow off and on the inside, Shoto smirked, on the outside, he rolled his eyes and walked past his father.
"What about that Izuriya boy?"
Shoto turned, looking confused. "He was powerful, didn't watch much of his fight though."
The man grumbled again and pointed at his son. "You need to become more observant, what if he surpasses you on your way to beating All Might?" He asked in irritation and Shoto scoffed, throwing himself and his old man off at his boldness.
"That izuriya was able to take a solid strike from All Might and still stand, something you cannot even do." He stared at his father before turning away. "That guy surpassed me before I even started."
Enji Todoroki didn't know what to say to that. And he despised it.
Shinsou shot up out of his bed, his dreams crawling with that black creature with the beak, beating down Aizawa and then…
He shuddered. He recalled the relief he had at seeing his teacher alive at the edge of the water, granted he was horrified at the scale of his injuries but at least the man was alive, and as he saw, as gruff as always.
He chuckled at that thought and felt his blanket, realizing it was wet, and then touched his cheeks. He had been crying.
He shook his head and switched his thoughts to the strange fighter, the one with sickly yellow eyes and a bright red smile.
He shuddered again at the sight of him beating down the beaked villain. The man-made fighting a creature able to snap limbs like straws look like playing with an angry child.
He was glad the man seemed to be on their side.
"Giran is looking."
The hulking reptilian sat on the roof, his legs crossed as all three studied the school of UA.
"Wwwhhhhhyyy, Maayyyy I AaAsSSK, DiIIiiiD we, BOTHER IiiiiNN Asssking HIM?"
The creature to Hades' right spoke in its many voices, its mixed color of ashen grey and pitch black mixing like its many tongues. It's double jointed arms folded under it as it laid like a dog, its canine-like head covered in a mask that hid its mouth quite well while leaving its snake-like eyes to twist and turn in its skull like a chameleon. The only other bit of clothing was a pair of torn blue pants, the remnants barely covering his waistline and below, where it dragged shreds all the way to its ankles where the tattered bottom of the jeans loosely jangled like loose chains around its malformed joints, the legs like a dog, and the feet like those of a prehistoric Utahraptor.
"Because… Jonah." the third walked up to Hades' left, the reptilian beast glancing at him before looking back at the school.
"Each… Piece of this… puzzle… has a part to… play."
His pauses seemed to match his stitches, the way they cut off and repaired different parts, the person themselves both man and woman, stitched together like the monster he was crafted after. She chuckled darkly before stretching their hand, the female fingers gripping out as if to snatch away the school itself.
She shrugged and let her hand down, and the voice changed to that of a male, and the stitches shifted, the hand changing to female, the chest bursting out like a woman's, the waist splitting and dividing at the bone to form a male pelvis, while his feet turned to painted nails that resembled a woman's trained touch and experience. His hair grew out and changed to a dirty blonde, and one eye changed shape to a more slanted one, while the other sunk and the pupil darkened.
"I am merely a… pawn." He chuckled again, his voice growing gravelly and masculine with each word.
"And soon… I… Stein…"
He glanced at the building again, a cruel smile split by stitches running diagonally crossing his face as it again shifted to a more feminine one, his body undergoing another change.
"Will be the… Queen."
They along with Hades and Jonah turned a portal opening and swallowing them whole.
