Blood had splattered the alley way just like it had before. The smell of iron filled the air. It was all slow motion when an explosion filled the air. There was more shouting and screaming. Maybe Stain had taken advantage of the chaos nearby.
A few sidekicks was laying dead on the ground and a few others Izuku didn't recognize. Shouto was panting on the side with frosty breath coming from his mouth. Katsuki was on the side with his gloves smoking and he was panting as well. It was almost surreal.
"You."
The two young heroes turned around to see their boyfriend standing there.
"Why did you kill them?!"
Anger started to bubble up inside of him.
"Fake heroes."
Izuku growled.
"That's not up to you to decide."
"Says the fake that walked by victims-
"I didn't have to look to know you used your quirk or they're dead. I can't help them."
Stain stared at him.
"I know you…." He growled.
Izuku stayed quiet.
"Leave! We have him!" Shouto said as his hand lit up.
"Fucking go! We don't need you to melt down-
"Flamethrower's child. Come to exact your revenge? That's not very hero like."
"No. My friends are in trouble. I'm here to take down a villain to keep our city safe. Back down now or you will have to fight me too!"
"I'll take the fight. "
One for All welled up in his legs and forced him forward at incredible speed. Stain almost didn't have time to react. He swung his leg and it connected with the villain's side. Bakuguo and Shouto were yelling at him as soon as the villain pulled out the knife.
Stain didn't get his chance to cut the green haired boy though.
Izuku swung a hand and touched the blade out of his hand. Stain apparently found it useless to fight someone who could match his speed. His first target was Shouto who shot ice all over the alley way. It didn't stop the killer from busting through it, slicing his skin in places. Blood dripped from the sky onto Katsuki and Izuku.
"You fucking idiot!"
Izuku launched himself upward. The green haired boy covered his boyfriend. Shouto growled in frustration as Stain cut Izuku instead. The dual user blasted out ice as Stain licked the blade paralyzing the boy.
"Are you OK?!" Shouto asked as they crashed into some trash.
"F-fine. I have idea," he managed to say.
"I'm listening."
Stain pulled himself out of ice as Katsuki let off a few blasts trying not damage the buildings they were between. His two boyfriends landed close by. The blonde retreated backward and landed by them both.
"He has an idea. I have to leave you both here. Make sure you heat up the area for him."
Katsuki shot them a dirty look.
"You're fucking kidding me."
"No and his plan is solid. Be right back."
Katsuki held Izuku in his arms as Shouto disappeared from the darkness of the alley. Izuku still couldn't move for whatever time it would be for him. It was going to be hard for Katsuki to move around with the extra weight on him.
Fuck this all. How did we get into this? Especially Izuku.
He glanced down to see the helpless expression on his boyfriend's face but his emerald eyes sparkled with determination.
"The both of you are going to be the end of me."

"Shit!"
"How could you lose him so fast?!" Present Mic yelled at All Might.
Aizawa scratched his chin.
"I'm not surprised he would run into danger. We're already on patrol duty today. You took him to the hospital- he could be anywhere."
Toshinori looked around. People were screaming and scattered everywhere but a lot of them had cleared out. The only problem was there was bodies in some places. Sidekicks and heroes everywhere but their priority was the students.
"There's rumors of the Hero Killer around town."
Shouta glanced to his side to see Shinsou standing there with Ochako.
"I haven't see Todoroki, Bakuguo or Deku. As soon as things started catching fire…." Ochako trailed off.
The three heroes said nothing.
"It's blue fire like at the school…."
Those people are back, Aizawa thought, They were after Midoriya at one time before… Who's to say they wouldn't try to flush him out to take him.
"I want you two to stay together and find your classmates. Make everyone leave for the school. If you run into the intruders from the school or the Hero Killer, you are to run away and not engage."
"But-
"The answer is no," Hizashi said looking worried, "Hitoshi hasn't told you but the Hero Killer murdered Midoriya's parents. Who knows if the villain is after him or if he would go after him…."
"He's not that stupid," Shinsou said, "He's never expressed revenge before and I don't think he would. If Hero Killer attacked someone then he may try to protect them."
I don't know what is worse, All Might thought.
"We'll do our best," she said taking Shinsou's hand.
"I want an update every ten minutes."
The two students nodded and disappeared.
The three teachers stood there sharing the same grim look. The future of UA was in their hands- they had to collect their students and get them out with only scratches. Izuku Midoriya was the biggest priority at the moment including his two boyfriends. What would happen if those three decides to switch to villains? None of the three would go without a fight but….
Then the whole world was in trouble.

Shouto did his best to ignore the blasts coming from the alley way. He could feel the heat rising in their area. Building a giant ice dome was no easy task and he felt himself getting cold even with his added hero gear. His teeth were already chattering and his hand was starting to frost up.
He had to trust them to make it through. He had to trust Izuku to be ok and that Katsuki was strong enough to protect him. His eyes started to water. What if everything went badly?
The building could collapse behind him. The Hero Killer could kill them both. What if Izuku's plan didn't work? It wasn't a waste of time but…
He was starting to feel himself panic. The scenarios were filling up in his head way to quickly. The ice stopped and his flames started to leak out.
"No…"
He rubbed his temples and the flames died down. He took a few deep breaths. He had to hope…. He had to hope that Katsuki could handle it. He had to hope Izuku wasn't overestimating himself. He had to trust them. Those two were his everything now...
His family.
Shouto felt his mind clear and he took in a shaky breath. No one could've told him this was going to happen. He was glad to see Izuku show up.
A small smile tugged at his lips.
He's definitely a hero. It's a shame he didn't show up sooner.
He looked behind him. Blasts showed up here and there. All he had to do was whistle when he was done.

"He's slowing down."
Izuku said stretching. He had come out of his paralysis five minutes ago but his body still felt locked up in some way.
"How can you tell?" Bakugou snapped.
Izuku smiled.
"He's tired. He wasn't expecting to take on three of us. He has to be careful now."
"How is this plan going to work…. Icyhot isn't even here."
The green haired boy smiled.
I just trust him. I give that to Shouto.
"He didn't doubt me."
Katsuki raised his eyebrows.
"You think I doubt you?"
"You're doing it now."
The blonde boy grumbled something but he couldn't hear or make out what he said.
"When the moment comes, you blast him out of the alley…. I can do the rest."
"You look red…. Are you ok?" he whispered.
"I'm collecting for the finale."
"This isn't a game."
"No it's not but we are finishing this tonight."
A worried grin graced Katsuki's lips.
"I wasn't aware you were after revenge for your parents."
Izuku glanced over at him.
"Revenge isn't what I'm after. He hurt people. Killed heroes. He attacked you and Shouto."
For a moment, his eyes flashed red, sending shivers down Katsuki's spine. That sweet, happy boy looked so dangerous.
"Oh."
The two of them did their best to avoid Stain's blade. No one was making any wasted moves. It was as if they were playing chess and it was intense. No one spoke a word and it was starting to get to Katsuki. The suspense was killing him.
"Arghhh!"
Izuku glanced at him.
Remember…. Any idiot can possess great power and use it to blow up the town but real power is control.
Izuku grinded his teeth.
Why am I thinking about that now? Why am I thinking about what he told me? He ruined my life.
You must finesse. Fine tuned control. Wild power can kill a man but you want to be hero right?
He chewed on his lip.
The moment you kill someone- it defines you. Good or bad…. That fire power you have, would be a great asset one day. I can show you. Would you like to stay- all you have to do is say yes.
A high pitched whistle broke through his thoughts. Katsuki's head whipped around towards the exit of the alley. Stain ignored this and took his chance- blade swinging through the air at the explosive blonde. Bakugou barely had time to move as Izuku pushed him put of the way.
Stain slammed the green haired boy into the brick building behind him. Stain stabbed him in the shoulder making a scream rip from Izuku's throat. He bared his teeth like a wild animal. He growled at the killer with smoke leaking from his mouth.
Stain grinned as he pulled the blade from his body. The boy shuddered as his head swim with pain and it almost felt like he was going to vomit. His tongue fell out of his mouth inches from the blood of Flamethrower's son but it never happened.
"NO!"
A blast filled the alley knocking Stain into the main street. Everything happened so fast without warning-
Shouto barely had time to encase himself in a small dome of ice to protect himself. Izuku sucked in a deep breath then released the heat he had been holding back. Katsuki shielded his face as the heat tore through the air. He was drenched in sweat like he had been running in the afternoon, summer sun.
Stain slammed into a melting ice wall, knocking him out. His body slid down and crumpled at the ground like a wadded up paper ball. Shouto kicked the ice around him away with ease. He emerged just in time to see Izuku drop to his knees.
"DEKU!"
Shouto turned to see Katsuki running through the slush, ice and water. He didn't see anything that had happened since he had shielded himself.
"What happened?"
"He passed out!"

All Might came upon a giant ice dome that lit up briefly with orange flames. It seemed in just seconds it started collapsing upon itself. The ice started falling into the road and sidewalks but it just turned to slush.
What the hell happened here?
He walked closer to see Izuku was out of it. His lips looked blistered and his face looked pale. Shouto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugou was by his side trying to wake him up.
"Izuku!" Toshinori called as he ran closer.
The two boys looked up to see their favorite hero running for them.
Rinnnnngggg
Rinnnggggg
All Might grabbed his phone and answered it. The voice on the other side was trembling.
"All M-might?"
"Uraraka?"
"The man with the blue flames is here…. With the scary guy with a mask. They destroyed the train station."
