-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
It had been quite the long day for Izuku. He found out a super mode of his own, 'Mega Power', his school got attacked... and saved by a mysterious red figure according to Strong Arms...
He took a quick glance at the sunset, as he slowly opened the door to his home.
"IZUKU!!" As soon as he entered his home, he was greeted by a very worried mother. Izuku watched as she ran up to him, pulling him in a hug, her eyes full of tears
"Izuku... I'm so glad nothing happened to you!" Inko said between her sobs
"Mom, don't worry. I'm fine now..." Izuku spoke, shedding a tear after seeing the look on his mom's face.
"I... I was so scared... since that incident when you almost got killed... trying to save Kacchan..." She said as she slowly let go of her son.
"I-It's fine, now, mom." Izuku assured as he removed his school shoes.
"Deku...?"
Izuku peeked from beside Inko, to see Ochaco walk up to him.
"Uraraka...?"
She was wearing the same outfit from the other day.
"I... I heard what happened at your school..." Ochaco replied woth a worried look on her face.
"You've made such a nice friend, Izuku. She was a bit worried about you, and so decided to visit. We've been having small talk about your friendship, and her life in general."
"Uraraka..." Izuku mumbled
"I-I-It's n-not what you th-think it is..." Ochaco responded as she turned her head sround to hide the blush on her face.
"It was another one of them..." Izuku mumbled as he made a subtle gesture with his hands at Ochaco as his expression grew serious, unknown to Inko.
"Mom, I... might sound like a jerk to you, but... can you prepare tea for the two of us? We need to discuss..." Izuku asked, being as reserved as he could, to hide the sudden serious atmosphere between the two teenagers.
"...Inter-school Quiz competition..." Ochaco mumbled, with a nervous tone
"Of course, Izuku, I'll be back soon" Inko said with a smile, as she swiftly went to the kitchen.
"Let's... talk at my room..." Izuku spoke nervously as he lead her to the door to his room after receiving a nod.
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Once they finally arrived before his room, Izuku finally remembered the condition of his room.
"Wait a moment outside..." Izuku said nervously as he slipped in through the door closing it behind him.
Ochaco pondered what was he possibly doing inside, as she heard sounds of moving... and shifting...
A few moments later, finally noticing the large All Might sticker at his door, she let out a small giggle, now having a very good idea of what was happening inside.
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Izuku and Ochaco sat in front of one another.
There were also two cups of tea, each lying on the small table in front of the two, probably already cold, but for another reason entirely
Both were looking at each other with an unreadable expression on each of their faces.
'I-I didn't r-really think about i-it in the heat of the moment...'
'But this is the first time a girl came to my room!!!'
'Calm down, Izuku... She's just a friend, okay?' Izuku brought both his hands up, and gently patted himself on both his cheeks to calm himself down
Meanwhile...
'I-I-I didn't r-really think about i-it in the heat of the moment...'
'But this is my first time in a boy's room!!!'
'Calm down, Ochaco... He's just a friend, okay?' Ochaco took a deep breath as she brought her hands up, and tapped them both on both her cheeks to calm herself down.
[So, who was it this time?] Leviathan asked
'Leviathan... Thank you...' The two teens thanked the blue reploid mentally
[Blizzack Staggroff, of your Deep Sea Squadron...]
[Oh...] Blizzack had been one her greatest subordinates.
[Anyway, I have something else important to tell to you, and the rest of the Ex-Guardians.]
"Is it about the data chips we gathered?" Izuku asked, a grim expression on his face.
[Yes.] Was all they needed to hear.
[Meet up at the Dagobah Municipal Beach] Zero reminded as Ochaco nodded, leaving Izuku's room.
[We should get ready as well.] Zero reminded once she left, as he saw Izuku quickly put on a blue tracksuit.
['And I still can't believe Phantom would be here as well'] Zero thought as Izuku left his room.
Meanwhile, Inko was watching the television, or rather, the news of the incident of Aldera High, the school Izuku attended.
[Today, at 12:46 in the afternoon, there have been reports of a humanoid figure appearing in the middle of the Aldera high campus.]
[Strong Arms, the pro hero working part-time at Aldera High, witnessed a mysterious red armored figure hold the villain at bay as the students of the school evacuated.]
[However, according to the investigation reports, there was no trace of either of these figures, except a minor crater at the track field at the school campus. Who is this mysterious Vigilante, and what connection they had with the other humanoid figure? Find out as our news reporters get to the roots of this incident!]
"Mom! Uraraka forgot her phone, I'll be back soon after returning it!" Izuku called out as he hurriedly opened the door to outside his home.
"Don't be out for too long, okay?" He heard his mom call out before him as he left.
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Meanwhile, a certain blonde with a skeletal build, and unique blue eyes also saw the news as a grim expression appeared on his face.
He knew who the red figure was.
He knew the connection between the two.
He had a good idea of what the red figure would probably plan to do next.
'I should've told him about All for One after all...'
He immediately turned off the television as he decided to go to the one place here he had been training his pupil at.
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Izuku stood before the gigantic pile of trash that used to be the Dagobah Municipal Beach, in his Zero Mk.II suit, as he waited.
"You sure they'll come?" Izuku asked, the one-way visor, and face mask covering his face.
[I have sent out a unique distress signal detectable only by the four Ex-Guardians of Neo-Arcadia. I'm positive they will detect it.]
"Okay, then."
"Deku!"
Not too long after, Izuku turned around to see a certain blue armored maiden run up to him.
[Good to see you again, Miss Uraraka] Zero greeted.
"What happened?" Ochaco asked, her visor and mask covering her face.
[Yeah, what's up with the signal you sent out?] Leviathan asked.
[I'll explain once the rest are here.] Zero replied
[The rest...?] Leviathan asked, confused.
[Yes. The rest of the Ex-Guardians.]
[Also, once the rest are here, me and Leviathan will handle the meeting. No matter what anyone says, do not open your mouth. Is it clear?]
[It appears that I am not the only one who received the signal]
The red and the blue turned to the side to see a familiar green armored fellow standing before the railings.
[Harpuia!] Leviathan spoke, as they saw the green armored figure walk up to them.
[Good evening, Leviathan. What is it that you wanted to speak of, Zero?] Harpuia asked
'He sounds like such a nice guy...' Izuku pondered in his mind as Harpuia faced him.
[I shall begin once Fefnir and Phantom are here as well.] Zero replied.
[Phantom?! He's here, too?] Leviathan exclaimed
[He showed up, along with Fefnir for a moment during the Aldera high incident] Zero said.
[I see] Harpuia concluded.
[Oh hey guys! Long time no see!] The three turned around to see two figures standing on top of a nearby shack.
The one on the left was a light red armored figure, on the right, was the black armored one.
[Looks like everyone's here!] Fefnir commented as the two of them jumped down the shack, and walked up to the rest of the group.
[What business do you have with us, Zero?] Phantom asked.
[Glad to see you two alive, and kicking, Fefnir, and Phantom] Zero replied
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Meanwhile All Might, in his true form, had just gotten at the beach, still away from the (not so) rainbow coloured group.
Suddenly he heard a familiar voice, prompting him to hide himself behind one of the nearby trees.
[Alright, gentlemen. The reason I have gathered you all here...]
'Mr. Zero?' All Might carefully snuck closer, to get a better idea of their meeting.
'And who are these other four people, anyway?'
[... Is because of this.] Zero finished as a blue hologram appeared out of the grey 'Z' symbol on Izuku's hand.
The figure in the hologram turned out to be none other than...
[Weil!?] Harpuia exclaimed
[Greetings, reploids. As you already know, I am Dr. Weil, and thanks to a certain acquaintance of mine named 'All For One', my biggest creation shall be reborn in no time...] The hologram began
'All for One!?' All might gasped, thankfully no one noticed
[The devil reploid who wiped out 60% of humanity... and 90% of the reploid population!]
'90%...' Izuku could only look in shock, not noticing that the other four people inside the body armors might have also agreed to not speak up
[No... It can't be...] Phantom mumbled, in shock...
[Yes! The Ultimate reploid, Omega! And he shall be back, just as powerful, even without the Dark Elf!!] The evil man gloated, resulting in shocked reactions from the four guardians
[You shall pay for what you did, you mere robot puppets!] The hologram ended.
A few moments of silence followed, as the reploids (Except Zero:He's an original) took in the words of Weil.
[Weil's back...] Fefnir spoke
[... And so will be that crazy weapon of mass destruction...] Leviathan added.
[I found this message after piecing it together from the data I found within the elemental data chips, which I recovered from earlier reploid attacks.] Zero concluded.
[Now, I am sure that you guys inside the body armors are full of questions.] Zero continued
"And so am I!" The five turned turned around to see All Might, now in his buff form.
"I would like to hear the full story as well!" All Might spoke as he walked up to the five M.E.G.A men.
[Mr. All Might, this is a heavily classified matter.] Zero replied.
It didn't take too long for them to figure out that All Might heard the whole thing.
"That Dr. Weil said something about his acquaintance, 'All for One', he is an old enemy of mine." All Might replied.
[All for One...?] The five exchanged confused looks with one another.
"He is one of the strongest villains that I have fought, out there. He might as well be the Symbol of War if he wanted... Believe me, his existence in the underworld is just as much a classified matter to the public as I think yours is." All Might concluded.
[Very well, then.]
[Zero, are you sure about this?] Leviathan asked.
[Omega is too much of a threat even if we were at full power. We can surely use the help of the No.1 Hero.] Zero replied
[I agree.] Was Harpuia's response.
[I agree as well.] Phantom replied
[Same.] Fefnir responded
[All right, gentlemen. Now, I shall tell you the tale of Mega City... where it all started.]
[In the year of 20XX, thanks to the two of the world's greatest scientists in the field of robotics, Dr. Thomas Light, and Dr. Albert Wily, there were self-thinking robots helping out humans in this peaceful world, but for some reason, Dr. Light's success overshadowed Dr. Wily...]
Zero received a few nods.
[Let's find somwhere to sit down. This story is a long one.]
Eventually, they all decided to sit at one of the benches at the outskirts of the beach.
Zero then proceeded to tell the story of his world, the 'Robot Wars' with Mega Man against Dr. Wily... The 'Maverick Wars' with Mega Man X against Sigma, Zero's origin... The 'Elf Wars' with X, Zero against Omega... The war against Neo Arcadia, and the resistance... And his final battle against Weil.
[... And it all started with one scientist trying to overtake the successs of the other...]
Everyone was taken aback by this sad story of a seemingly endless war taking place in Zero's homeland...
[Now, I hope that answered most of your questions... And keep an eye out for Weil. This concludes our meeting.] Zero dismissed the rest.
[Send out a signal like mine if you find anything related.] Zero added as the other reploids said their goodbye's to each other.
[Roger] Leviathan spoke as she left
[Of course.] Harpuia spoke as he left as well.
Fefnir, and Phantom left as well, saying similar responses
Once everyone had left except Izuku, and All Might,
"Well, this surprise turn of events is even more of a reason to train harder, Young Midoriya." All Might declared, finally deflating into his true form.
"Yes..." Izuku mumbled, still not having recovered from the grim story of Zero's world.
He never really got to meet the other three guardians, and the people within.
[Mrs. Inko said we should get back home as soon as we can, remember?] Zero reminded
"Well then, kid. See you tomorrow morning" All Might said as he left.
"Okay, All Might!" Izuku called out as he, too, left for his home.
'I couldn't tell him about 'All For One' due to the other four, though I'm sure I'll get another chance, when the time is right...' All Might thought to himself, as he went into his muscle form, and leapt off.
-z-z-z--Z--z-z-z-
Author's Notes:
And so continued the training of Izuku under All Might. With only 7 months remaining, will he be able to take out all the trash? Find out... in the next chapter... of Mega Man Deku.
Sorry for the delayed upload of this chapter, like I said in earlier chapters, things are starting to get busier for me.
Anyway, the reason Zero knows about the events of the Classic Mega Man series... I'll just blame it on Charity. Charity did it.
By the way, from the lack of reviews... I'm really starting to get worried about this fic. Does anyone even read this? Is this fic so bad that you guys already lost hope on it? Or are you guys still being lazy with reviews?
I have no freaking idea.
Zero: Pretty sure it's the second reason
