Chapter 35: From Bad To Worse

Yagi's P.O.V

I was getting a scan with David. He was taking notes about my body injuries. He saw something that made him jump. "That injury," he said, "I know you got it from fighting All For One, but I still feel it to be absurd that you would reach these numbers." I got off the table. "So how come your quirk levels are going so low?" he asked me. I quickly made up an excuse. "Well, I guess being a hero starts to take a toll on your body once in a while," I said to him.

"I fear that it will be the end of the symbol of peace at this rate," said David who was clearly concerned, "The main reason why crime rates have gone so low is because of you." I walked over to him. "There's still plenty of good people who are capable of keeping the peace in the world," I said. "But what if a new super strong monster appears? Then what?" "There is another," I said, "Someone has agreed to become my successor." I looked down to Izuku walking with Uraraka.

"If anyone is capable of taking down any more big-time supervillains, then he is," I said, "He's the kind of person I'd be proud to call… my son." David started to smile. "There is still hope for the future," I told him with a grin, "And whenever danger comes, Izuku will give the flaming punch of JUSTICE!" I did a punch and somehow a strong gust of power came from my hand.

I was surprised. "What…" Later we were doing another analysis. "From the looks of it, it seems like your muscle form is the main cause of your quirk level going so low. But everything else seems to be running smoothly," David explained. I was surprised as I thought my other quirks died out. Perhaps I would still be able to fight after all. Someone stepped forward. "While I am glad you two are having fun saving the world, it's also important to help yourselves as well," she said. It was David's wife, Rosalie. She placed some food on the table for David. "Eat something, the world will still be here tomorrow," she said with a smile.

Kirishima's P.O.V

I was with Midoriya and Bakubro getting fitted for suits for the upcoming party tomorrow. I managed to find one in my favorite color, red. Bakugo came out in something that wasn't too shabby. It was a yellow dress shirt with an orange blazer and dark orange dress pants. He also had his hair done well temporarily. "Nice look," I said with a grin. He pointed his finger at me. "Don't start."

I saw Midoriya come out in his suit as well. He had a lime green dress shirt with a dark red blazer and dark green dress pants. "At least I found one in my size," he commented. The doors opened from another room. I saw Uraraka in a really sexy looking outfit. She had a red and orange dress and had her hair done nicely. It made each of our jaws drop down. "Hey boys," she said.

Deku was stammering. "Damn it, Starla, cut it out!" Someone wiped Uraraka away revealing her to be an illusion made by Starla who was laughing her ass off. Deku saw the real Uraraka who was wearing a pink dress. Deku actually got her that dress. "You look really beautiful Uraraka," Deku said. Uraraka chuckled. "Stop Deku, you don't have to flatter me so much," she said. I could tell Bakugo was checking Starla out in her dazzling dress. But I could tell the dress was also an illusion.

We were walking back to the hotel to meet the others. I gave Mina a text letting her know we were on the way back. Midoriya was saying something in Japanese under Uraraka's request making her giggle.

"English nerd," Bakugo said. Someone rushed into Bakugo and bumped into him on purpose making him fall. It was Sanjay. "Best put your hands where I can see 'em," he said, "….Roadkill." That name somehow made him shudder. He quickly got back up. "Um, Roadkill, I was talking to you," Sanjay said, "You should acknowledge someone when they speak to you! I mean that is what people call you isn't it?" "No," Bakugo answered, not looking.

"Well, it was at your middle school," Sanjay said still following us, "Or maybe you prefer your other name, Katsuki Bakugo Jr." He turned to Uraraka. "Hey Round face, did you know, your friend Bakugo's full name is Katsuki Bakugo Jr?" Sanjay asked. "Did you know that I don't care?" Uraraka retorted, not paying any attention. "Well, he told you his dad was famous, right? Or maybe infamous is the real world," Sanjay said acting sly. I could tell Bakugo was getting more and more uncomfortable. "You probably don't get to talk to your old man, but you're still close to him aren't you?" "I don't know what you're talking about!" Bakugo shouted, finally turning around.

"Oh, I think you do Roadkill," Sanjay said grinning, "You know exactly what I'm talking about. In fact… HEY EVERYONE, COME GATHER ROUND AND SEE THE TRUTH REVEALED!"

People were starting to gather making a crowd. "Most of you know Katsuki Bakugo as the hotheaded guy who beat me during the challenge, but he has some pretty big secrets."

"Secrets?" Midoriya asked.

"About his father," Sanjay told us. He took out some notes and began to read them out loud. Melissa and Han were part of the crowd. "Bakugo has told everyone about what a great 'hero' his father was. He admired him for his quirk, and believed he used it for good," he began, "However one day something happened that changed it all."

Bakugo started to have flashbacks to that day.

Flashback

He was walking home when he saw people gathered around. There was a bank robbery in progress. Bakugo saw this as an opportunity to see his father in action. He snuck to the front of the crowd to see all of the action. The doors open, and the next thing he saw, broke his heart. It was his father alongside the other robbers. Tears fell from his eyes.

Sanjay continued reading. "Sanjay that's enough!" Han snapped, getting angry. "Shut up," Sanjay said looking at him. He then started to read more from his notes. "His father was nothing more than a criminal," he said, "And I have no doubt that with a quirk like that, he'll end up exactly like his father."

Bakugo had tears coming down his face. Sanjay then pushed Bakugo away and got in front of Starla. "And as of today, you're my lady," he said as he quickly took hold of her hand bringing her close to him, "It's better to be with someone superior like me than that pile of hot-headed villainy."

"Hey, let me go!" Starla shouted as she struggled to break free of Sanjay's grip. Sanjay smirked.

That struck a nerve in Bakugo. Sanjay telling Bakugo's girlfriend that she belongs to him?! Nobody has the right to do that! "What do you think you're doing?!" Melissa bellowed. "What does it look like blondie? I'm taking holo-girl as MY girlfriend away from this psychopath explosion boy!" Sanjay answered. Starla struggled to get away from Sanjay but his grip was strong. Bakugo got back up. "S-stop it….." Bakugo stammered already ridiculed enough, "You bastard!"

"We'll see who's a bastard once you see what I do next," Sanjay said with a smirk. He brought Starla close and then clamped his lips on hers. Starla tried to pull back from the kiss, but Sanjay wouldn't let her. "You're my lady, so don't resist!" Sanjay said pulling her closer and kissed her again. Bakugo couldn't take it anymore. He got up and ran away from us.

That was the last straw. I hardened my hand and punched Sanjay hard. "WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!" I shouted, "Ridiculing my friend like that and making him look like a fool, on top of that, trying to steal his girlfriend?! You're such a fucking jackass!" Sanjay got back up.

"Yeah," he said, "But at least I'm not a big fat liar like him. Besides, you should be thanking me. I exposed him for being the son of a villain."

"That Son of a villain is my pal, and anyone who as beef with him, has beef with me," I said. "Whatever," Sanjay said as he walked over to Starla, "Now come over here and give me some sugar. I'll show you a real time, and you'll see what it's like to date someone who's superior." Starla started to walk over to him.

Midoriya and I were concerned for a minute. Starla stopped when she got close enough to Sanjay. However as soon as he puckered his lips and closed his eyes, Starla punched him, in the groin. She then grabbed him by the arm and threw him on the ground, wrestler style, before finishing it off with a punch to the face. I know she's a girl, but that was super manly! "You hurt my boyfriend like that again, and I'll SHOW you 'Superior'." she said.

She looked to the others. "And as for the rest of you, this jackass doesn't have a damn clue what he's talking about!" she said, "That boy's name's not Roadkill, it's Bakugo, and he's not a psychopath, and he's not a villain. Not only that, he's strong, supportive, and on rare occasions he's nice." Everyone was listening to her rant.

"You all must be crazy to listen to Sanjay, and you might think I'm crazy for hanging around somebody like him, but why the fuck should I care what you think?" she continued, "All that matters is what I think, and what I think is I LOVE BAKUGO! And if anybody has a problem with that, I'll pound them!" Everyone was shocked at first.

After a few seconds of silence, they started cheering. Sanjay was not amused. "Oh come ON! I exposed Bakugo for fraud and you still take his side?!" He snapped, "Honestly I had to go through his student records to find all that juicy information, and find out about his dad. Is nobody in this island interested in hearing the truth?!" Midoriya stepped forward. "Those who hide from the truth cannot call themselves a true hero," he said. "Yes, an excellent All Might quote, I figured you were a fan of his!" Sanjay said smiling.

"So since Bakugo isn't here to tell his truth, how about you Sanjay?" Midoriya said smirking, "What makes you think it's ok to look at someone's student records?"

Kaminari and Mineta stepped forward. "Yeah man, what's that about?" Mineta asked, "I may be a perv but I'd never stoop so low." Sanjay was starting to get embarrassed. "Wait a second, I was just… I looked that… you all deserved to…"

"Hey, how about we put all this craziness behind us and move on with our day," Han said, "Does that sound cool? 'Wonderful, ReCoil,' said the crowd."

Everyone started to leave. I gave Midoriya a fist bump. "Nice job man." Sanjay's coach approached him. "I'm gonna be a cool coach right now," he said, "You gotta stop doing that, alright? Not only is that weird, but its a violation of privacy and it could get you thrown in jail." Sanjay looked down, feeling embarrassed. "No more looking up someone's private records, students, or teachers," the coach said, "Kay?" He took him back to the gym.

3rd person P.O.V

Some men in Kabuki masks were lined up with weapons, each one of them containing aura in various colors. "My men, the time has come," said someone, walking up. It was the Aura Phantom. He had 5 rings on him. "Thanks to your efforts, we have managed to find 5 out of the 6 aura rings, each granting a various ability." His shadow substance was glowing red, allowing him to manipulate some kind of fire.

"Soon the time will come, where we shall put an end to All Might. Only this time, he will stay dead," he continued. He removed his mask. His face had a huge scar on the left and had some minor burns. "Once All Might is out of the picture, the world will know the true meaning of terror, and our armies will triumph and destroy those who are beneath us!" His men cheered.

"And I will take my place as the successor to All For One. I have one man to thank for all of this." Someone stepped forward. It was David. "David Shield, because of your hard work on these weapons, we can sell them to the next bidder, and build our army ten fold. Your debt will be paid in time…" David remembered agreeing to work with the Aura Phantom, in exchange for research on One For All, and the promise that his wife and daughter would not be harmed. Deep down he was ashamed of what he had done, and could only pray that All Might would forgive him.
