AN:

Wow I have been away for way too long. Sorry about that to all those who are still reading and waiting for next chapters to come out.

So if I had to pick songs for openings for this story, I would have to go with "Dream it out loud" from Devil May Cry 4 X The last judgement. Then for season two maybe "Fighting Breath" from Pachislot Devil May Cry 4 and then for the third season " Mad Qualila" From Devil May Cry 5.

Just something I thought of as I was writting.

Enjoy.

Chapter 14. Hero Killer.

Yesterday late-night Alexander had eliminated the two demons disguised as hero sidekicks, Kejito and Sawanan.
But before he left he was told by a dying Demon Kejito that there was another around.
Another demon.

He told Miss Calhoun of it and two came to the agreement to check the place out some more after the police was done investigating the destroyed dojo gym.

The next morning, Alexander pretend nothing had happened and he had slept through the night just like Jason had.

However, when they came to the Royal Hero agency that morning they saw it was surrounded by police cars and officers.

"What the heck?!" Jason yelled in surprise and ran over. Alexander followed with normal walking speed pace.

On the site was Royal Fang stood talking with a few officers. "No, I don't think so." They heard Royal Fang say as they got closer, quickly stopping as an officer walked in front of them to put up yellow tape to close off the area.

"Sensei Royal, what's going on here?" Jason asked the lion quirk man.

Royal turned to face them." Alexander, Jason. Sorry I didn't see you there. I am afraid something bad has happened."

" I'll say, what happened?" Jason asked.

Alexander stayed quite.

"Well you see when I was out talking with the head of the other hero agency. We may have taken a little too much to drink so I slept in one of their free rooms. That said once I came to work this morning, I found our doors wide open and our dojo inside destroyed." Royal Fang explained.

"WHAT?! THE AGENCY WAS ATTACKED?!...well do you know who did it?" Jason then asked.

"No. Apparently I am told there was a power outage yesterday so all camaras were out. Whoever did this, they seemed to have planned it. Worse still I have been unable to contact Kejito and Sawanan, and I have no idea where they are." Royal Fang said.

"They are missing?" Alexander joined in. It was a way to seem concerned and empathic, and in turn to make him look like he had nothing to do with it. Buuuuut he was the one that did it. Ups. No regrets eliminating the demons though. But he also couldn't tell Royal Fang and Jason he was the reason why.

"It sure seems that way." Royal Fang said and rubbed his face in frustration. He then sighed." I am sorry boys…But with no functional Hero agency and the mess in the dojo…. I am unfortunately forced to end your internship while the investigation goes on." Royal Fang reluctantly said.

"It's alright sir we understand." Jason said, sadden by the news." But do give a call if you find Copperman and Chitin Cut."

"Shame. I actually found our training somewhat fun. Sorry we had to end so early." Alexander said. If he hadn't accepted the invitation and training here he might have never have come up his new Royalguard fighting style.

"So am I. So am I. Best of luck to you both." Royal Fang said and walked away.

Alexander and Jason then walked away from the scene and down the street.

Jason then spoke with his head tilted down." Man, I can't believe this. Everything was so perfect yesterday. And now Copperman and Chitin Cut are missing."

"Yeah, its just the worst." Alexander lied.

Jason sighed." I suppose, I have to back to the hotel and get my stuff and then find a train that can take me back to Musutafu." He turned to Alexander." You coming?"

Alexander had other plans. Demon tracking with Miss Calhoun." I think I am going to stay at the burger-joint for a while before I leave."

"Alright. See back in school?" Jason asked.

" We will." Alexander said.

Jason, as a good gesture, raised a hand for a fist bump.
Alexander shrugged his shoulders and bumped his fist with Jason's.
"Later dude."

"Later." Alexander said goodbye and left for the fast food restaurant while Jason went back to pack.

Many hours later after it became late afternoon, and the sky turned orange. Alexander had been sitting in the fast food restaurant until he spotted Miss Calhoun's car and walked outside to meet her.

Miss Calhoun parked her sliver car at a parking stepped out and got a backpack from the trunk before then walking over to Alexander. " I got word from the others that any traces of you being at the hero agency last night have been removed. And they were also unable to find and other demonic traces."

"That's awfully nice of them." Alexander said." But I take it you and I still have to finish the left over leads. "

"Right. If the demon you spoke with told the truth, then there could another one of them out there somewhere in this town. So that's why I brought these." Miss Calhoun opened the bag to show what it contained.

Demonic detectors.
They kind of work like those remotes that is used for radioactivity by hazard-teams when ever there was a accidental spill at a nuclear power plant.
They didn't have a cool name, their range was only around 170 meters or so and had a habit of being unreliable.

Alexander stood and looked at the small handheld devices." Why did you bring them? I have my amulet you know. Plus, it didn't respond when I walked to agency this morning." He asked.

"Well it was the Board that told me to bring 'em. They are still a little worried about the potential demon hacker and just wanna be cautious." She explained and gave Alexander a demon detector.

Alexander shrugged. "Fair enough I guess." He said and grabbed the small device." You know, this is the first time in a while we are both in the field. Kinda brings back some old memories dosn't it?" Alexander smiled.

Miss Calhoun smiled back." Indeed it does…Now let's get to it, DaVinci. I'll check the public places while you handle the rooftops."

"Got it." Alexander said, then ran over to a building and jumped up to it's roof while Miss Calhoun walked down the street.

Meanwhile at Gran Torino Hero Agency.

"Hope you are ready we are going out to find some villains." Gran Torino he announced, standing outside with Midoriya who was dressed in his hero outfit.

"What?! Just like that?" Midoriya asked.

"If you only fight against me the you'll be in trouble if you come across someone who fight in way that is a complete opposite. The key is to get you some experience in fighting different types of villains and quirks. This is an internship after all." Gran Torino explained.

" I get what you are saying and I am totally agreeing, but…I still think I need more time to train to prepare." Midoriya said, think it was still a bit to early to fight a real fight again.

"You have already been in combat with some real villains. You'll be just fine." Gran Torino reassured him." Don't worry we are not going after anyone that big."
He then raised a hand to signal a cab to pick them up.
A taxi pulled over.
"You see because of the small population in this area is small and there for the crime rate is small. But that is also why there are a lot of hero agencies in larger cities, because there is a lot of crime there." He said as they got into the car.
"Now in Sibuya there should be plenty of villains to fight."
Midoriya was surprised to here where they were going." Wait we are going to Tokyo?! Iiiii am not so sure my hero costume is hip enough." He said in embarrassed. But then he remembered something else." Wait hold on…are we going to taking the bullet train towards Shiciku?"

"Yep." Gran Torino responded.

That Midoriya thinking. That would mean their be passing through Hosu city. he wondered how Iida was doing.

At the same time in Hosu.

Iida was out patrolling with Manual the Normal Hero again. "We'll patrol this place today too, sorry if this boring for you." Manual said to Iida.

Iida simply responded." No, this is fine." His thoughts were in another place at the moment.

Manual noticed how passive he sounded as they walked down the street and felt like he had to talk with him. And about what he was probably thinking."…Hey this is kinda hard to ask,but…. You are after the hero killer aren't you?"

Iida stopped dead in his tracks from the question." How did you?"

Manual smile." I couldn't think of any other reason why the brother of Ingenium would come to my agency. Uhugr I don't get me wrong! I am really glad you did. But…you should be perusing personal grudges. We heroes don't have the authority to arrest people or punish them. The only reason we are allowed to use or quirks because of the regulations on them. That why no matter how noble might be…a hero must not use their quirk for themselves."
Iida stood in silence listening to Manual's words.
" If a pro used their quirk like that it'll be seen as selfish and a very serious crime."
Iida proceed the Manual's speech and he could help but feel bad for thinking this kind of stuff. He had also been the guy who wanted to follow the rules simply because they are the rules.
For of course Manual tried his best to be clear in what he was saying." I AM NOT SAYING THE HERO KILLER DOESN'T TOATTLY DESERVE IT OR ANYTHING! YOU JUST SEEM LIKE THE HONEST TYPE YOU KNOW? I HATE FOR TO FOCUS ON A GOAL LIKE THIS AND LOOSE SIGHT OF EVERYTHING!"

Iida could see what he was doing wrong did a small bow." Thank you, I appreciate it."

"Oh it's fine as long you understand what I am saying. We good? Alright let's move." Manual said and the two were on the move again.

However Iida still wasn't satisfied. For past few days all this hate had been building up inside of him and he had nowhere to put it. No, he didn't care for anything Manual said. He couldn't, he had to find Stain and avenge his brother. That was his goal right now.
Find the hero killer.

And make him pay!

Also at the same time in Hosu.

The number two hero Endeavor just stepped onto the streets of Hosu.
"So this is where the elusive Hero Killer is hiding….Shoto, you coming boy?"

Just a few meters behind Endeavor was his son Todoroki, now dressed in his new blue hero outfit. After he had talk with his mother the two wanted to forget all the years since the time she pour hot water on to his face and they just wanted to be a family again. With renewed vigor, Todoroki had now also accepted his father power and now willing to use his flames for attacking. Still nowhere close to forgive the man himself." I am right here." He said, passive aggressively.

Meanwhile back in the town of Ordo.

Alexander was standing up the rooftop over looking a large portion of the town. He spoke into the headset to Miss Calhoun on the other end." Alright, Michelangelo. I am ready on my end."

"Roger DaVinci. We begin the search now." Miss Calhoun said.

"Let's find this third member." Alexander muttered to himself.

And so, the two DARTA agents went on to search the entire town of Ordo. Alexander taking the rooftops and Miss Calhoun taking the public places.

The first place Alexander checked was water tower. Climbing on top of it, he took out the Demon Detector to scan it.

No reading." This is going to take some time." He muttered.

Miss Calhoun meanwhile was at a bus stop and was checking under one of the seats. Her detector didn't pick up anything." Nothing…."

Just then as she got back up, two thugs came over and flirt with her." Hey there lady, you looking for some company?" One of the thugs said.

"We can give a good time if you want to." The other said.

Miss Calhoun didn't take to kindly to be flirted with and soon after felt the two plant their hands on her shoulders.
Her eyes twisted in anger and before they knew it, the two got knocked out and leaned up against a dumpster.

Next Alexander checked the nearby radio tower but found nothing. He also fell off it as the one of the metal beams he stood on couldn't handle his weight and broke. Of course, he didn't die from the fall.

Miss Calhoun then checked the public restrooms. She was very thankful she didn't find anything since the state of public restrooms weren't that clean when she checked in the past.
In both then women's and men's.

Alexander then checked the other hero agency in town, but found no signature. He also almost got caught by the heroes there but managed to leave without getting noticed.

Miss Calhoun then checked the local movie theater. She was checking while people were watching a movie and found her annoying but she could care less.

And it went on like that the whole rest of the day.

They checked the sewers.
Nothing.

They checked the alleys.
Nothing.

They checked the nearby school.
Nothing.

They checked the burger restaurant.
Nothing.

They checked the post office.
Nothing.

They checked some houses.
Nothing.

They checked the burger restaurant, again.
Still nothing.

The shops, the hotel, the mayor's office, the water works, the gas station, the burger restaurant for a third time.
After spending all their time looking all over town they found nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

Alexander was standing back on a rooftop and turned off his Demon Detector. The sky had just turned black and stars dotted it shining brightly. He sighed in disappointment." There is not a single trace of the last demon." He activated his headset." Sorry Micheangelo, I got nothing."

"Me neither. Regroup with me when you can so we can call in and stop the investigation." Miss Calhoun said over the headset.

"Good, I am getting sick of this place." Alexander said and jumped off the roof.

Meanwhile in Hosu. The league of villains had transported the Hero Killer back and he went out to hunt heroes he declared fake. After he left the leader of the secretive group Shigaraki found the Hero Killer annoying and instead unleashed his secret weapon.

Or rather weapons.

Shigaraki told Kurogiri to bring them in.

Out from the purple mist portal came not one, not two, but three Nomu like creatures.

And Shigaraki gave them one order.

Attack.

But not far away was the dark figure that had been stalking the Hero Killer spotted the murderer again." Ahhhh…. I see you are back." It muttered out loud." And you brought friends too. This is great, now I get to see more your art work. Too bad my friends were recently removed. I bet they would have loved to see you in action, but…oh well, what can you do. I am truly excited to see what kind of colorful chaos you bring for me today."

Not long after.

Alexander and Miss Calhoun had rejoined and were currently driving back to Masutafu, since they were unable to find any leads and Royal Fang canceled Alexander's internship.

Alexander started a conversation." So, we didn't find anything. You think there is a chance that the demon was lying?"

Miss Calhoun responded." In all my years working for DARTA there is one I do know. It is that combative demons would never play loose with a threat, even in the face of death. Then again, we didn't find anything. I guess it could be possible that maybe it was lying."

Alexander pondered for second." You think it is possible that demon is working from long range. Like another city, region or country?"

Miss Calhoun paused for a moment to think." If that is the case then that's all the more reason to catch find it, if it exists. Like we discussed yesterday if the demons you killed could get their hands-on official info and make fake documents, just who knows what could happen. They could literally infiltrate anything. Maybe even the government. I don't want to think about demons running any country. They could sabotage it and maybe make it easy for other demons to invade."

"What, a demon king is making everyone slaves through debts and a bad econemy? Boy wouldn't that be a sight. And by that I mean that's one of the lamest plans ever devised by a creature from Underworld." Alexander said and put his hands behind his head.

"Say what you want Alexander, but corruption is a thing a demon can easily thrive on. Especially if it is a devious one." Miss Calhoun said. There were a lot of odd demons in the Demon World.

Suddenly Alexander got a message on his phone. He took out his phone to look. It looked like a message from Midoriya, but strangely only a location.
From where? -
His eyes widen when he realized where the location was set.
Hosu city.
"Miss Calhoun, can you please turn on the radio quick."

She raised an eyebrow."Huh? My I ask why?" He never wants to listen to music on the car radio.

"I just got a message from a friend and I just want to be sure." Alexander responded.

Miss Calhoun then turned on the radio, and the first thing they both hear is man yelling." BREAKING NEWS, THE CITY OF HOSU IS UNDER ATTACK! MOMENTS AGO, VILLAINS RESEMBLING THE ONE WHO FOUGHT ALL MIGHT AT THE USJ INCIDENT HAS APPREREAD AND IS CURRENTLY ATTACKING THE CITIZENS OF HOSU! HEROES ARE ON THE SCEENE BUT ARE DESPERATLY OUT MATCHED! - LET'S GET THE HECK OUT OF HERE!"The news broadcast then abruptly stopped.

Miss Calhoun knew they were just outside Hosu, so she looked to her side because it could be seen from the highway they were using to get out of Ordo." Alexander, look!" She yelled.

Alexander looked out the window. He could see clear smoke coming from it. That's when he remembered. Iida was in Hosu for his internship and Midoriya had just sent his location that was in Hosu with no text. Putting two and two together he quickly summarized that his two friends were currently in the city, likely under attack. And possibly were engaged in a fight against Stain at this very moment.
They could die.
God damn it!
"Miss Calhoun." He said to his partner." Please let get me in there. My friends might be in there."
Miss Calhoun was taken back by his request. This was hero work, not their territory. However, Alexander begged with a serious face." Please…"

Miss Calhoun gave it some quick thinking. Technically she couldn't really see if this somehow made it back to DARTA and jeopardize it, soooo….
After a brief moment, Miss Calhoun narrowed her eyes and rammed her foot the speed. Going faster than normally allowed, Miss Calhoun drove towards Hosu city for Alexander to help his classmates.

Arriving in the city, chaos was everywhere. A wave of people were running down the road as they were trying to escape from the monsters and the heroes that were fighting.

"Sorry Alexander, there are too many people for me to get through there." Miss Calhoun said and stopped the car.

"That's alright. I'll just go from here." Alexander said and stepped out of the car.

Miss Calhoun stopped him." Hang on. You need these, just to be on the safe side." She said and gave him his golden pistols Downpour and Heatwave.

"Thanks." He said and holstered them." I'll contact you when I have the time." Alexander left into a passageway and began jumping from wall to wall like he was a character in a video game.

"Just don't make it worse." Miss Calhoun muttered as she watched Alexander disappear from her sight.

Just about two minutes earlier.

Midoriya couldn't move.
He was down on all four and after he just landed a blow on the Hero Killer but for some reason he couldn't move an inch. Was this the Hero Killer's quirk? He looked to his right to see Stain standing there and one of the knives he was holding. It had the tiniest drop of blood on the serrated side.

One simple drop?! THAT'S ALL IT TOOK?!

Midoroya widen his eyes in horror.

He had arrived on the scene finding Iida and another hero called Native, on the ground about to be killed by Stain. Before he engaged Stain, he had sent out a message to everyone in his class of his location in a desperate attempt to get help to deal with the Hero Killer.

But Stain had used his quirk Blood-curdle to make Midoriya stop in his place and unable to move.

"You are not powerful enough. Its not that you predicted my movements, just left my field of vision. I deliberately allowed you to get in close so I could graze you. The world is full of false heroes who are all talk, but I think you are worth keeping alive." He said walking over to Iida who was still alying on the ground unable to move like Midoriya and the other hero that was there, Native." Unlike these two."

Iida was frighten beyond all belief. This is NOT how he imagined finding the Hero Killer, and now it looked like he was about to die. He teeth were gritting but was terrified.
He wish he never thought perusing him, he should have listened to his friends!

Midoriya yelled." NO! DON'T DO IT! STOP IT!"
Stain didn't listen and raised his katana to stab Iida." GET AWAY!" Midoriya shouted.

However just suddenly a blast of flames came towards Stain and he had to jump away to dodge it.

The three were confused, until Iida and Midoriya noticed who had come to their aid.

It was Todoroki! (Shoto)."Midoriya you need to give more details in times like this. I was almost to later to stop this guy." Todoroki said.

"Y-you too Todoroki?!" Iida stammered in surprise to see yet another fellow student and friend.

"Hold on! You are using your left side?!" Midoriya noticed the flames emitting from him.

"How did I get here? You message took a while to figure out, but you not are the kind of person to give out not details unless something was really wrong." Todoroki said. He then activated his ice power and used to give Iida, Midoriya and the pro hero Native some slight protection and get Midoriya and Native to over to where he was."The pro heroes will be here any minute!" He said and then unleashed another blast of fire at Stain. "Listen Stain. You will not be taking anymore lives." Todoroki declared.

Midoriya warned his friend."Todoroki! Don't let him get close! I think he controls his enemies by swallowing their blood! That's how he got us!"

"So, he swallows blood so his victims can't move? That explains the blades. All I gotta do is keep my distance." Todoroki said. However just as he finished talking, Stain had thrown a knife at Todoroki's face. Luckily he was only grazed his left cheek, but he was shocked that Stain was able to do so quickly. Even more shocked that he was already in front of him, in the air.

" You have good friends, Ingenium." He said refereeing to Iida.

Todoroki managed to block Stain's incoming strike by summoning ice. However, it was then he noticed that Stain had throw his katana, and it was following down right on top of him! Stain further caught him off guard by grabbing a was about to lick his tongue on the small cut he made on Todoroki's cheek.

Todoroki managed to quickly ignite his flames just in time to stop Stain who jumped back to not get burned."He is strong!" Todoroki shouted as he then tried to hit Stain with several ice attacks, but each time Stain dodged like a pro.

Iida was stammering." No… his fight is with me… get out of here!... I inherited my brother's name… I am the one that should stop him!"

Todoroki heard what Iida said and said the following back." So, you are Ingenium now? Strange." Todoroki used a zone ice attack that unfortunately missed Stain." The Ingenium I knew never had that desperate look on his face. You got a dark-side Iida. Guess my family is not the only one."

At the same time Midoriya could suddenly start moving his fingertips.

Stain used his katana to slash the ice in his way." You blocked you own view. Rookie mistake."

"Come at me then!" Todoroki shouted and channeled flames. However, was then hit by throwing knives in the arm.

"You are good kid. Unlike him." Stain said and jumped to attack the downed pro hero Native.

However suddenly from the out the blue came Midoriya using his new ability where he used his quirk at five percent. He called it: Full Cowling! And he had gained a green glowing out line like a power up.
And he used his power to grab ahold of Stain and in flight dragged up against one of the walls as Midoriya went forward.
" I am not sure how, but I can move again!" Midoriya yelled.

"So he has a time limit?" Todoroki muttered holding his with knives in.

"No." He turned to hear the Pro Hero say." The kid got hit last and therefor should be last one to be free." He weakly said.

This kid must be type O! Stain thought. Damn it! Stain then shoulder bumped Midoriya right in the head and he let go and Midoriya fell to the ground.

"Midoriya! Dodge!" Todoroki yelled and sent out an ice attack.

Midoriya dodged, and so did Stain and retreated back to Todoroki and the two still downed.
"I think I got an idea on how I came free first. I think it has something to do with bloodtype!"

"If that is true, then my blood type is B." Native weakly said.

"I-I am type A." Iida stammered.

Stain smiled." So, you figured it out. Bravo, very impressive."

" Midoriya he is too fast. We can't out of here if we have to carry Iida and the other hero." Todoroki said. the situation looked desperate." Our best bet is to hold out until the pros get here."

Midoriya didn't agree with him." No, you have already lost too much blood. I'll distract him while you support me. Sound like a plan?" He said determind to keep fighting.

"You want us to take a pretty big risk….okay….we can protect them." Todoroki said and Midoriya got to his feet.

"Two against one huh?...well then….alright." Stain said.

Meanwhile somewhere else in Hosu.

Alexander was running across the rooftops trying to get to the location Midoriya had sent in a message.

However he suddenly stopped when he heard the sound of battle.

Alexander walked over to the edge of the rooftop to look down below.

He stood for a moment and saw them. The heroes were indeed fighting monster that looked like Nomu.

Maybe be I should-No!... You have to find your friends, Alexander. He reminded himself and then went on his way to find Midoriya and Iida.

However, before he left he recognized one of the heroes below. It was Endeavor." Endeavor? Dose that mean Todoroki his here too?" He muttered. He looked once more but didn't see any trace of him amongst the heroes. He might just be with Midoriya and Iida since there weren't here.

Back with the three fighting Stain.

Stain had completely changed his fighting style, he was now way more vicious.

Midoriya was knocked to the side and Stain ran slalom through one of Todoroki's ice attacks.
Midoriya watch in horror as Stain was just about to make an attack on Todoroki's side." TODOROKI! " Midoriya yelled.

At the same time with Iida, couldn't take it. He couldn't take being weak, being useless. His friends were about to get killed! He had been so consumed with rage, that he had forgotten what really mattered. Memories of his brother traveled through his mind. The best moments he had with him in the past. The reason he wanted to become a hero in the first place!
It was then at his lowest point the timer on Stain's quirk disappear. Instantly he knew what he had to do.
Iida saw that Stain was about to land a hit on Todoroki. Seeing this he charged power into his quirk in his legs.

Unleashing it all at once, Iida dash forward in high speed and kicked away Stain's katana!

But he wasn't done, as he then kicked Stain in the side with his right foot!

The force from the kick sent Stain staggering back a couple of meters.

"Iida!" Midoriya yelled happy when he saw his friend back on his feet.

"So you are free now too? Guess his quirk wasn't as a great as he made it ou to be." Todoroki said.

"Todoroki, Midoriya…please get out of here! I'll handle Stain." He said.

Midoriya frustratingly made a scared look." Not this again!"

In the process Stain's katana was destroyed by Iida's kick and it's upper piece landed on the ground." Changing like this in such as short time isn't possible. Its no use trying to pretend to be a hero. You never be anything more than a fraud who prioritizes his personal goals over others. You are just the kind of trash who has infected the name of hero!" Stain angrily glanced at him.

Iida agreed… he had been selfish." He is completely correct I haven't been acting like a hero at." But that was about to change!" Even so….There is no way I can back down." He clenched his left fist." IF I GIVE UP NOW, THE NAME INGENIUM WILL DIE!"

Meanwhile not far away.

The dark being that had been watching the Hero Killer, saw how he was faring against the three U.A.
"My, my. You are fighting so hard against those kids my artist. You are probably too proud to admit it, but they have angered you greatly." It said out loud. From where it was, it could clearly see that Stain had become more radical after the kid in the white armor rose just a minute ago.
"Perhaps I should give you some small help as a token of my appreciation of your work."

Just then the dark being noticed someone out up on the rooftops getting closer to where his favorite artist was. The dark being raised his sense to get an idea of who it was. However, when it did it's (metaphorical) muscles tensed.
Kain's energy mixed with human. The one that killed his part-time partners." I see…So you are here too. That certainly raises the stakes." It said out loud to itself.

The dark being moved as a mass of liquid fluid, slime and random pieces of rock blob down the side of a building.
Quickly it found what it was looking for.

A manhole.

The dark mass lifted the cover and the formed a thing that resembled a hand and pointed it down into the sewer. Magical energy soon began to charge with a bright red and yellow glow in the slimy palm.

Back in the ally.

"Get out of my way!" Stain shouted while in the air and threw a knife at Todoroki, but Iida came in and caught the knife but with his own arm so he felt a lot of pain.

" No, Iida!" Midoriya yelled. He was caught by Stain quirk and suffered a slice in his leg as a result. However, he suddenly felt he could move again.

Stain tossed one more knife and Iida fell to the ground in front of Todoroki." Todoroki! Use your ice on my legs!" He yelled to him.

"What?!" Todoroki shouted.

"Just do it!" Iida yelled.

Midoriya rose to his feet. His left leg was no good, but that was fine. He then activated his Full Cowling and was fully intent on using it.

Todoroki used his quirk and iced over Iida's leg so that his engines could work again." It's done!" He said quick and fired of a blast of fire at Stain to keep him at bay.

Iida, determined used his mouth and teeth to pull out the knife currently stuck in his right forearm and then got to his feet.

While Todoroki used his fire against Stain. Midoriya and Iida charged their power and focus.

Iida turned the output his legs to power jump off the ground and so did Midoriya with Full Cowling and also jumped even though his legs were badly hurt.

Before Stain could act they were already just spaces away from getting him.
He was done for by this surprise attack.

"Go guys." Todoroki smiled.

However, things weren't gonna turn out that simple.

The moment both Iida and Midoriya were centimeters away from defeating Stain, time slowed as the massive blob of darkness unleashed it's magical power into the sewer.
When the magic blast was released it was massive and extremely powerful. In what was like the split of a second the magic travelled through the sewer and transformed into a wave fire that spread out all over the sewer system.

Everyone in Hosu suddenly a felt the earth shake beneath their feet.

Todoroki felt it." An earthquake?!"

His father Endeavor felt it." Huh?!"

Gran Torino along with the other heroes felt it." What is this?!"

Before anything could think on it there suddenly was loud explosive sound and nearly everyone were knocked of their feet.

Except one. Alexander heard the underground explosion sound from the rooftops and brazed for it and managed to keep himself on his feet.

Even though they were in mid air Iida, Midoriya and Stain were all somehow knocked off course and so Stain wasn't hit by Iida and Midoriya as instead the two rammed into each other while Stain fell past them onto the ground.

Midoriya and Iida then also fell down feeling really, really sore.

But it wasn't over.

Soon at every manhole in the city large pillars of fire erupted upwards from the sewer. Making it look like the city was one huge campfire with embers dying out.

One helicopter that was out flying managed just not to get hit by a fire pillar.

Also the leaders of the league of villains were on a water tower to overlook Hosu for their Nomu monsters, when their attention was caught by the erupting fire. "Hey hey hey! What in the world? Kurogiri, what the heck is happening?!"

The mist responded, shocked by the sight."I…..I not know. where is all this fire?"

On the rooftops." I don't think Todoroki is doing this…. Either of them. This fire doesn't feel like regular fire too." Alexander calmly surmised out loud and began moving again.

Todoroki had gotten to his feet again and looked upwards to see the large pillars of fire slowly go out and then disappear. He was confused." What the hell just happened? What was that fire just now?" He asked wide eyed and baffled.
However, he then looked ahead to see Midoriya and Iida rise from their fall and their mid-air collision.
But he also saw the Hero Killer rise back up. And even worse? Stain immediately sprinted towards Midoriya and Iida with his broken Katana with bloodlust in his eyes.
Midoriya and Iida however hadn't noticed him, so Todoroki screamed to alert them."BEHIND YOU!"

Midoriya and Iida was confused but they quickly realized what the referred to when the looked over their shoulder. They froze once they saw Stain being right there in front of them.

"DIIIE!" Stain screamed.

The small moment it took for when Stain thrusted his broken katana forth felt like an eternity for Iida and Midoriya. Stain's terrifying killing urge made them unable to move. Not that they could move well with the wounds they had gotten.

Todoroki stood in horror as his friends were about to be cut down.
But then.
He saw something jump down from above.
Someone.

Just as Stain was getting close enough to kill them, Iida and Midoriya felt someone grabbed their shoulder. One on Midoriya's right shoulder and Iida's left. Before they could think they were suddenly thrown backwards all the way back to where Todoroki was standing.

*SWOOSH* It sounded as metal then pierced flesh.

It was silent.

Realizing that he was not dead Midoriya slowly opened his eyes and soon after so did Iida." W-what happened?" Midoriya asked.

"Todoroki…did you save us?!" Iida asked.

Both were very confused. They both thought for a second they were really going to die. But they then noticed their classmate didn't respond they looked at him.

To their surprise they saw Todoroki completely pale in shock with small open mouth, was sweat dropping and eyes wide as tea plates.

The two wondered what made him look so scared.

They soon got their answer as they then followed his gaze to what he was looking at.

They turned.

And they donned the same expression as Todoroki and their hearts sank.

Right over by Stain, there was this figure, a person standing in front of Stain hunched over. Stain's sword going coming out of his back.
They couldn't see his face, but they recognized a familiar grey and red coat and something on his back, a highly detailed gothic dark fantasy sword.

The same sword their Russian friend used for fighting.

"A-a-…Alex?" Midoriya stammered in fear and sadness.

The hero Native could only see a tiny bit he gritted his teeth when he saw the hero killer had killed someone." No…"

It was their friend and best fighter in class. Alexander Kowalcyzk had saved their lives… on the expense of his own…

Stain was confused over who this was but could see on the boys faces that knew him." So… he is a friend of yours."
The boys were too shocked for their dead friend to answer.
" I take your silence as a yes. It's kind of a shame…. Someone willing to do a heroic sacrifice to save his friends, is just the kind of person I didn't what to kill. But guess he would still have had to prove himself other way. It's a shame that his sacrifice won't stop me from killing you. Modern day heroes are the ones really who are really the one's responsible. If it weren't for the all the selfish fakes. I would had have to kill this young man. I suppose is a now a martyr for real heroes. But once I am done with you, I WILL MOVE ON TO THE NEXT, UNTIL I FINALLY GET EVERYONE LAST ONE OF THE-!"

Stain was then suddenly punched right in the face and the force sent him up in the air and landed near the start of the ally, where it let out in to the street.

The sudden interuption made the three boys break out of their scared trance and they looked to see who punch Stain. Their eyes somehow became more widen then they already were when the saw noticed it was Alexander standing upright fist raised into the air.

"Alex?!" Iida sounded.

"HE'S ALIVE?!" Midoriya screamed.

"No way…." Todoroki said in a low tone.

Alexander stood still for a moment before he then smiled and lowered his hand." That was a nice nap, but man you are noisy." Alexander joked to the Hero Killer who was recovering from his punch.
Alexander then turned around to his friends like nothing happened." Hey guys, how are you doing? I was in the neighborhood when I got your message, Midoriya." He casually explained.

The three were silent as Alexander had yet to remove Stain's broken katana from his body, so it was still stuck in his stomach and came out the other end while he greeted them.

For about ten seconds it was silence until Midoriya and Iida screamed in fright of the fatal wound that Alexander had. He should be dead for having a sword going straight through him." WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Todoroki was confused yet calm from shock with huge wide eyes. "How are you not dead right now?"

"THTThHhthwhe swswssoorsswowr sosthwhew The swooooord!" Midoriya stammered loudly in fright and pointed on himself to indicate for where Alexander had to look on himself.

"Hm? Oh this? Oh, just hang on a moment" Alexander coolly said and grabbed the sword handle and got ready to pull.

"WHAA! ALEXANDER DON'T PULL IT OUT! IT'l-"Iida was saying, but Alexander didn't listen.

A second later Alexander pulled out the blade in one motion. His blood spilling gorily on the ground, but Alexander didn't seem in the least bit concerned or felt any type of pain." Ohhhhh, that felt good to get out!" He then said after pulling the sword from his stomach.

But that didn't stop Midoriya and Iida from freaking out again from fright." WHAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Even Stain was taken back by the sight of the young man being completely fine after he had just stabbed him.

Alexander's wound closed and he then reassured them by yelling at them." Oh relax you two! This is not the first I have been stabbed." Honestly he regretted that he had to show them he had a regenerative ability, but it was better then letting Midoriya and Iida get killed.
It was then Alexander looked back the Hero Killer. But he had no idea if it was really him or not." So, who is this?" Alexander pointed at Stain.

His friends suddenly remembered that they were engaged in deadly combat with the Hero Killer. They regained their focus and got into fighting poses after seeing their comrade was fine.

"That's the Hero Killer! He tried kill Iida and Native." Todoroki said and got into a fighting pose.

"Who is Native?" Alexander asked.

"Uhmm that's me." Alexander heard a voice coming from behind his classmates. It was a pro hero dressed as a Native American lying on the ground. Alexander could differently see why he was named Native " I am sorry, but I have to ask…. Did you just survive a sword piercing through the stomach?"

"…uhm...Yes?" Alexander said with an unsure expression.

"Oh….That's cool… I am just gonna keep lying here..." He said.

"So… y-you are really fine?" Midoriya asked Alexander nervously.

" I am standing aren't I?" Alex responded.

"But you lost so much blood!" Iida yelled. Pretty sure that loosing that much blood was fatal.

Stain was getting tired of being ignored and talked to regain the attention onto himself." So, you are alive after all. I was sure I killed you. You must have one powerful recovery quirk that allows you to heal. Impressive."

Todoroki picked up on that. He had seen Alexander's quirk in action many times now. It allowed him to jump high, super speed, super strength, telekinesis and ward creation. And now it could suddenly heal?! Was it a quirk or a Swiss army knife?!

Stain continued." I'll make sure to finish the job right, this time. Prepare to die."

"Wait a moment. There is something have to ask." Alexander said.

"Alex, you can't be serious! He is the guy who crippled my brother!" Iida loudly reminded him.

"It'll be quick, I promise." Alexander said and turned his head back to Stain." So, what's you deal? I heard you kill people or something. Why is that?"

Stain was angry but began to talk anyway. " The word hero has lost all meaning. Right now, the world is filled with fakes that are selfishly and greedy. They do it all for money and fame. It is sickening. Therefore, I have dedicated myself to rid the world of false heroes. Wipe the slate clean and return society back to when being a hero meant something! It is why I attack people like you friend and his brother. They are unfit to be real heroes."

Iida gritted his teeth as Stain mention him and his brother.

Alexander now had the full picture."Oh I see. So, you are willing go so far to kill heroes so you think people will be so scared they'll start listing to you?"

"I WILL rid this world of the pretenders!" Stain said.

Alexander walked a few meters closer so he was just half way between Stain and his friends."Well you know what I think?...I agree."

"What?"

"What?

"What?"

"What?"

Alexander's friends said and then Stain.

"I said I agree. I dislike this whole hero vs villain thing the world has going. I hate how so incredible arrogant everyone with quirks have gotten. Always going about like they own the place, especially if they have a strong one too. I think this whole hero school system is kind of a joke. I am not really training to be a hero either. The only reason I ever joined U.A was so that I can become a pro and make some cold hard cash.….. Some of what you are saying does make sense…. However,…. You made one little mistake." Alexander said and pulled his sword, Uprising, from his back and aimed it's tip at Stain." You tried to kill my friends…. And I don't like that kind of thing." He threatened Stain with a narrowed gaze.
Alexander took a moment to look at Stain's broken katana that he held in his other hand. He smirked and then he threw the half-broken sword over to Stain." Here! I refuse to fight a scumbag like you that can't fight back." It landed right at Stain's feet.

His sudden decision instantly alerted his friends.

"Alex no!" Iida yelled.

"Huh? What?" Alexander questioned while he his front faced Stain.

"It's the blood! He freezes people in place by consuming their blood!" Midoriya explained.

"And you just gave half a blade with you blood all over it!" Todoroki said.

Stain quickly crouched down and picked up his broken Katana." I was wrong about you. I assumed you were worthy of being a hero when you jumped in and took a hit meant for you friend. Now I see you are nothing more than a renegade." He said and then licked Alexander's blood on the broken blade.

Instantly Stain's quirk was working and Alexander suddenly felt he was unable to move. Not his legs, not his arms and could not even turn his head around." Well this is unexpected and annoying at the same time. You know, you guys could have said something before I decided to fight him, right?." He said, perhaps not sounding as concered as he should to friends.

Todoroki said to Iida and Midoriya. "Guess our fight is not over yet! Iida? Midoriya? Are you ready for another round?"

Midoriya pain looked at his cut leg." I am really not, I but I have to be."

"My arms are damaged, but my legs are still good." Iida said.

Alexander could only narrow his eyes at Stain when he heard how badly hurt Iida and Midoriya was.

Stain saw Alexander's vexed expression and spoke." Don't worry. I'll make sure to only harm the one in white, leaving the green and split haired one alive." He then began to cough." *Cough* You just sit and watch while*Cough* *Cough* I dispose of you friend and….*Cough* *Cough* *Cough* …Then I'll …take." In a surprising turn of events the Hero Killer suddenly began coughing uncontrollably, so much that he was forced to kneel down.
The four young U.A students and the Pro Hero Native were dumbfounded by seeing the Hero Killer abruptly took a turn for the worse from out of nowhere.

"Wait what?! what's wrong with him?" Todoroki asked confused.

"Is he…sick or something?" Midoriya commented equally confused.

"Does his quirk have more limits?" Iida guessed.

Stain then began vomiting out all the blood that he gathered throughout the fight, which the heroes found very repulsive. Stain, then with wide eyes, fixed his gaze on Alexander." You!...YOU! *cough* *cough* YOUR BLOOD! WHAT THE HELL IS IN YOUR BLOOD!?" He shouted franticly confused.

Now Alexander knew what was going on with him, or at least had an idea. His demon blood. Could it be that Stain's quirk unintentionally had an allergic reaction to his supernatural blood? Another thing to thank father for.
Seeing the Hero Killer was preoccipied with coughing Alexander realized that Stain was also left completly exposed to an attack.
And his friends just standing still and not making a move...
"Hey guys? I don't think he'll defend himself like that...so are you going to attack or what?" He asked the others.

Realizing Alexander was right Todoroki knew they couldn't afford to let the opportunity slip past!
"Get him guys! " Todoroki said and fired of two ice attacks from his hands onto the ground. The waves of ice shoot around Alexander and then joined together once they got on the other side of him and traveled right towards the Hero Killer.

Unable to move due to his poisioned body that was weakened by Alexander demon blood, Todoroki's attack came and Stain's lower body was then incased in Ice making him more unable to move.

Getting their act together, Midoriya and Iida used their quirks to dash forward past Alexander and at the Hero Killer.

Alexander quickly noticed that Midoriya was glowing with a green like aura and he wasn't hurt from his quirk. The heck?

Midoriya in his five percent Full Cowl threw a punch." DETROIT SMASH!"

Iida with his engine quirk came in with a kick." RECIPRO BURST!"

The two connected their attacks on Stain and the force from their attacks sent out gusts of wind that traveled upwards out the ally and hurling into the night's sky.

The dark mass who had been carefully watching the Hero Killer for a while was disappointed. His favorite human had been defeated with a little help from the accursed hybrid and his classmates.
Mere children.
"Perhaps now is the time for an entry." It said and began to move.

The dust settled after Stain was hit by Midoriya and Iida, and Stain was firmly cracked into the ground.

Midorya and Iida were currently sitting on the ground catching their breathes while looking at the unmoving Hero Killer. But he was not dead.

Further back Alexander suddenly felt he was able to move again. Guess it was because of his demon blood, again.
Alexander then placed his sword back on his back.

The pro hero Native staggered to his feet and walked up to Todoroki who was also looking at the defeated villain." Holy crap…. You kids defeated the Hero Killer!…." Native said. If it weren't them he would have done for!

Iida was processing had just occurred. He did it… He beat Stain and avenged his brother. He did it. All thanks to his friends that came to his aid.
Friends he put in danger to begin with...

Midoriya and Iida broke their gaze when Alexander came walking over offered both of them a hand." Come up you two." He said.

They accepted his hands and were pulled to their feet. Midoriya glance back on Stain." He's gotta be knocked out after all of that…. right?"

"I…I think he his…" Iida said in a low tone.

"Well then, you guys did it. The Hero Killer is out of the park!" Alexander coolly congratulated them, not too sensitive to the tension there was moments ago.

Todoroki and Native came walking up to them." He maybe be out cold, but the job is not done until the police brings him in. We should find something to tie him up with." Todoroki said.

Midoriya agreed." Yeah we should also gather his weapons." That was also when the green haired boy remembered that his neighbor was also stabbed a moment ago."AH! ALEX I NEARLY FORGOT! ARE YOU OKAY?! STAIN STABBED RIGHT THROUGH YOU!"

The secret Devil Hunter assured his friend's concern." Oh yeah I am fine. Look" he said and pulled up his T-shirt inside his trench coat to show where he was stabbed on his bare skin.
Only to see there were absolutely no wound or scar what so ever.

The three students and pro hero raised their collective eyebrows." How in the world? … I have never seen anyone heal as quick as you have! Is this also your Master Rogue quirk at work?!" Midoriya said. Not ever had he seen that kind of quirk on anyone. Not his other classmates, not the teachers, not the other hundreds of pro heroes he could name at the top of his head. Hell, not even All Might! The world's number one hero could not heal like this! And Midoriya knew that for a fact! Wait, there was the Nomu from the USJ attack. But Alexander wasn't a Nomu. At least he was ninty percent sure he wasn't.

"I have been thinking about that for a while. Also, I find it odd when he shallowed your blood it had a different reaction then the rest of us. What was up with that?" Todoroki commented. Was there a blood type Stain couldn't handle? The Hero Killer looked really shocked after he consumed the blood and started coughing for seemingly no reason.

Alexander pulled down his shirt again and tried as best as he could to casually cast away the subject." It's just some abilities I got, no big deal. Come on, we need to find something to tie this guy down with. We could check the dumpst-"

Just then.

It happened.

Without warning an intense bright blinding green light shoot out from his family amulet and took all the heroes by surprise.

"HUH?! Alexander your amulet!" Iida yelled as he and the others held up their arms to not be blinded.

"Why is it glowing?!" Todoroki asked baffled.

Alexander quickly processed what was going on. His amulet glowed green, that meant a demon. And he was still with his friends. They were about be visited by a real nightmare!
" Oh crap…" He muttered low.
When the light from the amulet glowed dimed down, Alexander gritted his teeth. He then walked past his friends and pulled his sword from his back. He franticly scanned around the ally." Guys! Get out of here NOW!"

His friends and Native were baffled. His friends more than the pro hero, they had never seen him get this serious all of a sudden.

"What? why? What's wrong?" Todoroki asked.

"Alexander the Hero Killer is down, there is no need to worry." Iida said in an effort to calm his friend down.

Alexander yelled back to him." I'm not talking about Stain! Something far worse than him is about to show itself!"

The heroes couldn't believe what they were hearing.

Something worse than Stain?...

Just then they all began to notice the moonlight slowly get blocked out by a large shadow and they looked to see what as causing it.
The three U.A students Iida, Todoroki and Midoriya watch in disbelief and shock while Alexander narrowed his eyes. At the start of the ally connecting with the street right over where Stain was lying unconscious on the ground a large massive hulking mass of dark liquid, slime and rocky parts in a slug like resemblance stood on two blobby feet and two slime dripping arms with hands stood towering above them with the hands holding on to the edges of the roof on both sides of the ally.
Most horrifying was that it had one large eyeball the size of a bed attached to where the head would be and a collar around the neck made out of violent flames.

It was monster!
It was a Major Demon!

The heroes were too frightened by the sight of the monster to move or say anything.

Shit! Alexander cursed in his mind. DARTA's rules said that no ordinary people outside of DARTA were not supposed to know about demons being real. But it was too late now. It was not like when he killed the one demon before the festival, Alexander actually knew the people here. The best he could do was to get them as far away as possible and then kill this thing.
Man, this was not his day!

The monster's eyeball took it's gaze off the heroes and hunched over to look down on the Hero Killer.
It spoke with a deep voice much to the heroes shock." Tsk tsk tsk… You lost my artist…. oh well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I know you can't hear me, but I have to say I really enjoyed watching you working your profession ever so much. Your victims were like sculptures for you to carve out and display for all the world see. Representations to you ideals and feelings."

"It can talk?!" Native said. It didn't appear to have a mouth or anything so how was it talking?!

The monster looked up again and it spotted one of the kids wearing armor to one he had seen before." So, you must the brother of that other hero. Ingenium was it not?"
Iida froze. The thing referred to him!
"Funny…. the younger avenged his elder… How very classic, if I do say so… Forgive me, but there is another at the moment that deserves my attention more." The monster broke off Iida and glared directly at Alexander." I felt the moment when you eliminated my associates, Traitor's Son. But I didn't think I would get to meet you this soon."

Alexander decided to play it cool like he always does." From that tone I take you are the third boss guy they talked about. Have to say you are bigger than I anticipated, and a lot smellier too." Alexander joked and waved his hand in front of his nose as a rude gesture.
This was the demon hacker? It didn't look like a hacker, but hey some demons are just weird. The very Underworld was a place of pure chaos afterall.

The heroes looked at Alex. Did this thing and Alexander know about each other? What was this about associates and Traitor's Son?

"I guess you are also one who gave them the false information. Were you surpposed to get something in return? Oh, and also those huge pillars lava fire. That was your handiwork, right?" Alexander asked.

The monster snickered." I have learned many things after decades of spending time in this world. Finding assistance was hard and unfortunately they were the only ones who accepted my offer. Until you took them out of the picture that is. They were meant to be at my beckoned call. And yes, it was me that flooded the sewer with hellish flames." It explained. It had no reason to lie.

Wait, this world? Todoroki thought.

A small weight was lifted off Alexander's shoulders. If the demon said was true, that meant there weren't any others hiding he would need to take care of." Great! That means once you are gone, this long day can finally stop."

The heroes who had been quite standing still throughout Alexander's and the monster's conversation finally tried to bud in.

" Alex!" Midoriya loudly whispered to his neighbor." Who or what is this guy...monster-thing?!"

Alexander ignored his question and then whispered back the same way." Nevermind that! You all just run when I give the signal!"

Monster heard them and chuckled wickedly." Hehehe, oh sorry, but do you think me deaf? No, I am afraid none of you will be leaving. You are to see my gallery before you all become apart of it. For I am an artist at heart, I AM RUDRICKER!" It shouted.

Alexander had a bad feeling the demon was about to attack and shouted to the others." RUUUN!"

The heroes heard him and were about to run, but then monster quickly melted down and traveled as a slime mass across the ground, avoiding Stain, and captured the heroes at their feet with its slimly dark substance and splatted up on their arms too.

"WHAT THE?! OH NO! WE ARE TRAPPED!" Midoriya shouted.

"I CAN'T USE MY ICE OR FIRE!" Todoroki shouted while shruggling to get free.

God damn it! Alexander thought as he also struggled to get the slime off

Then from both sides two mouth like pieces dashed forward that then bit together and trapped them all within.

For a brief moment all our heroes suddenly didn't feel the dark substance on them anymore. Strangely enough reason they could all see each other despite being completely surround by a blinding darkness.
Just then the solid floor they stood on disappeared without warning.

They screamed at the tops of their lungs, except for Alexander." AHHHHHHH!".
As they all fell into the black abyss below…
