In regards to Izuku not growing taller over a few months. A few months is not going to show massive height increase. Maybe an inch or possibly a little more given how he is still a growing teenager but not he won't grow much taller in such a short time.
Yes everyone under AFOs control will not remember a thing, think of it like when you drink too much and blackout.
As for Inkos body not being blown away, honestly that was just me being fucking lazy. I'll fix that later.
Chapter 20
Uraraka yelped as Izukus fist struck her across the cheek. She knew a full on hit from his quirk would render her lifeless. Izuku was shocked when his fist merely struck her and knocked her to the ground.
"No!" Yankee yelled enraged at himself for not getting there in time. He fell to his knees before looking up to see Aizawa using his one eye to erase One For All so all the brunette received was a heavy bruise and a damaged jawbone. While the punch didn't have the quirk behind it, Izuku was still very physically strong without it and hit her as hard as he could.
"Hurry up and restrain him!" Aizawa said. "I can't keep my eye open much longer!" Izuku looked at the girl beneath him who was crying in pain as she held her cheek. She looked up at him with wide eyes full of fear. What was going on? He just hit her! Not only that, he tried to straight up kill her! The way he was looking down at her, it made chills go up her spine..
"DIIIIEEEEEE!" Izuku yelled. His voice not as deep since he was in his in his teenage body now but it still carried the message clearly. He looked around, all he could see was All For One laughing at him and taunting him. Killing him wasn't enough. I Everything had to be destroyed. Iida has quickly ran in and grabbed Uraraka and carried her to safety as Izuku powered up One for All creating a bright aura (ripping off DBZ, I know I know). He appeared as a black silhouette in the aura. His eyes, dear God his eyes were pure evil.
"Dammit this isn't good!" Yankee said preparing himself. He didn't think he could bring himself to hit the kid he had grown fond of. If he could even land a hit that before he got blasted into oblivion. Izuku suddenly flew around indiscriminately destroying everything in his path. People fled for their lives as one villain had been replaced with an even worse one. The pros tried to stop him but he was too fast. Izuku watched as a tall building collapsed to the ground from his power and saw a small group of citizens taking shelter in a corner. Izuku snarled as he flew down and hit the ground with an impact so hard the concrete shattered. The group of people screamed as Izuku walked towards them. They backed up as far as they could practically trying to squeeze into the wall to escape him.
"Everything must be destroyed!" He yelled as he charged at them with murderous intent only to be blocked by Yankee who took the full brunt of the hit. Yankee spat out blood as he felt his midsection nearly collapse on itself. His trauma suit completely failing from the impact. Yankee rushed to catch his breath.
"Stop this kid!" Yankee cried trying to reach him. "It's me Yankee!" Izuku didn't care. He would end everything. "I didn't want to do this! You give no choice!" Yankee roared as he used his quirk to deliver back a punch with the force of Izuku's hit at the crazed boy. The force of the blow sent Izuku flying back quite a distance as Yankee turned to the cornered citizens. "GET OUT OF HERE!" The citizens took no protest to the heroes orders as they sprinted away for dear life.
"What do we do?!" Ashido cried. This was so horrible!
"I don't think there's anything we can do." Shoji said looking down sadly.
"That's our friend up there!" Kirishima yelled. "We can't just sit here!"
"That is no longer Midoriya." Tokoyami said. "That is a monster living in his body."
"HOW COULD YOU EVEN SAY THAT?!" Kirishima yelled appalled.
"Look at him!" Tokoyami yelled. "That isn't Izuku! Would Izuku ever do this?"
"No! But we can't just-" Kirishima yelled smashing the ground out of grief.
"You kids gotta get out of here!" Yankee said limping over. "I can't take another hit like that, one more of those and I'm done for."
"What about Midoriya?!" Todoroki cried.
"He's lost it." Yankee said. "I don't think anyone can stop him, if we do it will be at the cost of our lives" Yankee said. His words truly outlining how bad the situation truly was. He knew that unless Izuku calmed down, there would be death.
"What are you saying?" Yaoyorozu asked.
"We will hold him off, we have the strongest pros in the world all here. We might be able to stop him but I can guarantee that not all of us are making it out alive." Yankee said grimly.
"You can't just ask us to leave while you lay down your life!" Hagakure cried.
"Actually I can, cause I'm a hero, this is what we do. You newbies aren't heroes yet, as such you will obey our orders." Yankee scrutinized as a familiar roar was heard. "OH SHI-" he didn't have time to react as Izuku slammed into the pro force. Yankee knew this was a critical hit, he could feel his broken ribs shredding his guts. He looked up and spat out blood as he saw Izuku look right at him. He wanted to reach out and help the boy but found his collapsing lungs wouldn't allow him to formulate words. He slammed into the ground unable to move. He could even raise his fists to deliver a blow back meaning all the energy was now coursing through him. His damaged heart suffering major damage from trying to withstand the force of the attack. (AN: Yankee holding in kinetic force is a lot like when you drink way too much caffeine (or snort a lot of coke, whatever describes you better) and your heart feels like it is about to explode from all the energy coursing through you)
"YANKEEEEE!" Lady Liberty cried in horror as she watched her man go down. Izuku turned to his classmates with a sadistic and twisted look. Class 1A froze, such a look of madness made them lose any motor control they had.
"YOU ALL WANNA FUCK WITH ME?!"He yelled remembering the torture they put him through.
"MIDORIYA YOU MUST STOP!" Iida yelled. "We are your friends! This isn't you!" A wall of ice and fire formed in front of him as Endeavor and Blizzard rushed in to stop him. Eclipse used her quirk to make him blind and deaf as Sand Golem created a sand creature to help restrain him while Snakes shot venom at him to paralyze him. Jaeger jumped in and used his spiders silk to entangle him further in a web. Rio summoned wood to encase him in thick vines. Spartan then came up and entangled him in a headlock. Izuku had been all but immobilized as the pros watched closely for any sign of escape.
"Let's hope that will hold." Jaeger said exhausted. This had been a long day.
"Why didn't Yankee help?" Blizzard asked.
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen him." Eclipse said as they heard Lady Liberty scream. All heads turned to see the redhead desperately trying to heal Yankee.
"Come on Brent please get up!" She cried. Her quirk wasn't working fast enough! His labored breathing combined with massive amounts of bleeding indicated he didn't have long left. "DAMMIT WHY AREN'T YOU GETTING UP?!"
"Uhh uhh uhh." Yankee tried to mutter.
"Oh no." Jaeger said as he sprinted over to the downed hero. The rest stayed put to guard the raging boy. Jaeger made his way to the two Americans and gulped deeply.
"Yankee!" He cried.
"Why isn't mah quirk healing him?!" She cried looking at the German.
"It did." Jaeger said. "He's lost too much blood, your quirk stopped the bleeding but it'll take time for it to replenish. Time he doesn't have!" Jaeger estimated that he had lost nearly 80% of his blood, given Yankees large figure that remaining 20% was going into overdrive trying to deliver oxygen across his body.
"That's not true! Ah've healed plenty of people with blood loss before! I just did to someone who got caught under debris!" She responded.
"How many people have you healed today alone?" Jaeger asked.
"Ah don't know! Hundreds?" She said.
"Your quirk is at its limit." Jaeger said sadly. "You've used it too much today."
"NO! COME ON AH JUST NEED ONE MORE-" She yelled as Spartan landed next to her unconscious. She turned to see Izuku had broken free and was back to his rampage.
"You have got to be shitting me!" Jaeger yelled in shock. This was a fucking nightmare! Izuku couldn't see, yell, or hear but that didn't stop him from blindly destroying everything in his path.
"What the hell!" Endeavor screamed. "I thought you blinded him!"
"I did! He's deaf, blind, and mute but is still going crazy!" Eclipse yelled.
"My paralyzing venom only lasts for a few minutes!" Snakes added.
"Great! Now he's even more dangerous!" Jaeger yelled out. He knew that a rampaging animal was bad enough, one that could suddenly no longer see or hear? That was doomsday for any unfortunate soul that stood in its way…
"What about Yankee?" Lady Liberty yelled.
"He'll have to pull through!" Jaeger yelled back. There was no way they could do a blood transfusion right now. Even if they could, there were likely no one who had his blood type. His best bet was to be as rested as possible to ease the strain on his heart while his body replenished his blood supply. "Dammit! He's at deaths door and the last thing I ever said to him…." Jaeger thought full of guilt. If Yankee did die here, Jaeger would never get the chance to apologize.
"Quick someone knock him out!" Eraserhead yelled activating his quirk to keep Izuku grounded. The effects of Eclipses quirk slowly wore off as his senses returned to him. Izuku ran around completely ignorant to the fact his quirk was rendered useless. Uraraka was a wreck, the pain of her broken cheek had nothing on her emotional torment of seeing Izuku like this. She had to do something! She slapped her thighs in frustration and felt a bump on her thigh. She reached into her pocket and found her phone. She was shocked to see it was still intact. An idea formed in her head, it would be risky but it just might work!
"Dammit!" Aizawa cried as Izuku fired up his quirk again. Having only one eye affected his ability to erase quirks. This was bad, Yankee was on the verge of death and the destruction to the city had been unfathomable. If this kept up, they would have no choice but to put Midoriya down. His eye opened wide as he saw Uraraka running towards the crazed boy.
"STOP!" He yelled. Was she out of her fucking mind?!
"Mmmm!" She tried to yell. Her broken jaw made it too painful to talk as she held up her phone to Izukus face. He turned and growled and prepared to lunge till he heard a familiar voice.
"Look he's got more!" A man yelled as a booming and happy laugh echoed.
"Fear not citizens! Hope has arrived! BECAUSE I AM HERE!"
Izuku froze as he stared at the clip. The warm and deep voice of All Might touched the innocent boy he was once that was buried under a mountain of grief. His eyes slowly returned to normal as he turned off his quirk. He looked at the video he had watched countless times as a child play before his eyes. The world's greatest hero, the hero who chose him to be worthy of his power. The power he had just leveled the city with..
My God what had he done?
"I-I!" He said quivering as he looked around. The destruction was unbelievable. So many homes and businesses destroyed because of him. He saw All For Ones corpse still with blood spurting from the headless body.
"AHHHHHHHH!" He yelled as fell down crying. Seeing the destruction he caused him to break down. Uraraka and Aizawa slowly approached, relieved that the ordeal was done with.
"Midoriya, it's over." Aizawa said trying to comfort the boy. Aizawa was one of the few present who hadn't been a drone and was a friendly face.
"K-kill me." Izuku begged. "I-I-I don't want to live anymore! Please just end it!" Aizawa was horrified at what he was hearing. A kid, fifteen years old, barely begun to experience life, was asking, no, begging to be euthanized.
"No, you're gonna be fine." Aizawa said. "Just take a deep breath." Pro heroes were often called to rescue people who were suicidal but very few had the qualifications or training to talk to those people.
"I can't!" Izuku cried. "I'm a murderer! I destroyed the city! I tried to kill Uraraka! I'm a monster! I'm a villain!"
"Calm down Izuku." Aizawa said delicately knowing he was treading on thin ice here. "None of this is your fault. You killed him in self defense, the damage was done by him, not you."
"No! It's wrong to kill no matter what!" Izuku yelled. "I-I can't do this!" Uraraka heard his cry but was in too much pain to talk. Izuku saw a piece of broken glass on the ground. He immediately lunged for it without hesitation and immediately brought it to his neck.
"DONT!" Aizawa cried. This was every heroes worst nightmare. Izuku thrust it into his neck, he didn't want to live anymore. All this pain and trauma, he would never be happy again, he was in a pit of despair and darkness that was closing in around him. He was suffocating, he couldn't breathe, his mind seared in pain as it fractured to keep him sane. All instincts to preserve is life were gone, so far had he fallen into the pit of hopelessness that he would never escape. The knife entered his neck and drew blood and before he knew it he slowly lost consciousness. The last thing he heard was the screams of those around him.
Man I feel BAD for putting poor, sweet Deku through all this.
