Chapter 35: A Stain
When Tenya arrived in Hosu he knew what the plan was… to figure out a way to take his revenge.
He promised Star he wouldn't go alone.
But there was also no guarantee that he would find Stain.
Manual wasn't the strongest hero either,. But he wondered if the time came he would be able to help.
But he knew had had to get his revenge no matter what.
On the night of the third day of the internships that was when the Nomu started to attack.
Manual was called out to fight them and brought along Tenya due to it being all hands on deck.
However… as they ran towards the destruction, Tenya saw something down the alley.
"Manual!" yelled Tenya.
"What is it?" asked Manual.
"I think I see something down that alley way!" said Tenya.
"Are you serious!" said Manual.
"Yes… I would do something on my own but I promised someone I wouldn't investigate things alone." Said Tenya.
Which was something of a lie.
"You shouldn't be leaving my sight either way." Pointed out Manual.
But he looked down the alley way and through the shadows knew that something was going on.
The two of them headed into the alley.
They saw a hero dressed like a native American slumped on a wall while a man stood over him covered in blades.
"It's him…" said Tenya.
Indeed it was true… it was Stain the hero killer.
Unfortunately seeing the man who had no nose standing over the thankfully still alive hero.
He couldn't help it.
He flew into a rage.
"You!" yelled Tenya.
"Tenya wait!" yelled Manual.
"A child?" asked Stain.
Tenya ran over and tried to kick the hero killer.
However he just dodged.
Manual decided to call for help.
However Stain noticed him.
He managed to run towards the hero and cut him before he could do so.
"Manual!" yelled Tenya.
Before Manual could assure him that he was fine Stain licked the blood off his blade and the hero fell to the ground unable to move.
"Tenya… get out of here." Said Manual, "Tell the other heroes."
He however knew it was going to fall on deaf ears. He could tell… Tenya was bent on revenge.
"I refuse… he destroyed my brothers' life! He can't be a hero anymore because of what you did to him." Muttered Tenya, "I refuse to let you! As Ingenium, I will stop you once and for all."
"So you chose the path of revenge." Said Stain.
Tenya gritted his teeth as they started to fight.
However the fight was very one sided.
As Star pointed out. If he was able to maim his brother, what chances did he have in defeating him.
After a hard battle which resulted in Tenya losing his helmet. Stain cut Tenya badly and putting him under his quirk.
Tenya trembled as the Hero Killer deiced to make him the target instead of the hero Native.
Thankfully there was a shout of "Iida" and Izuku showed up to save him.
Izuku was having a productive internship. The hero was Gran Torino, a former teacher of All Might's. And he was among those that knew the truth about his quirk.
Gran Torino helped Izuku greatly.
Thanks to a series of events involving a microwave and taiyaki, he was able to figure out his problem with his quirk.
The problem was that he was training it a like an all or nothing move. The truth was he had to spread all through it his body. And in doing so he was able to control it all though out his body so that he wouldn't break his bones as long he was able keep it at an acceptable level.
But he finally was able to control it
He considered texting Star but decided to wait until the week was over and surprise her at school.
And so he trained with Gran Torino and getting his fighting style down.
So Grand Torino decided to take Izuku to Tokyo to fight some street thugs so he could get better at fighting.
Though taking the bullet train took them through Hosu.
That was when he heard people mentioning a fire, and then the car they were in was attacked by a Nomu.
Gran Torino despite being old still got for a hero and told Izuku to stay on the train which stopped.
However Izuku couldn't help himself and went to join the fight.
When he got top a spot there were a lot of fires.
When he overheard something.
"Where' Manual?" asked one of the heroes.
"I don't know… eh should be here…" said another.
"Manual…" said Izuku remembering that was the hero that interning Tenya.
"I can't get in contact with him or his interne!" said the hero.
Izuku's eyes widened and he got a bad feeling.
A feeling about what was really going on.
Of course knew about the Hero Killer and heard stuff about him.
He should have known.
Thankfully he sped there and attacked Stain stopping him from killing Tenya.
He also managed to send out the text to all of his classmates hoping someone would either come looking for him somehow or call for help.
"Iida!" said Izuku.
"Midoriya what are you doing here?" asked Tenya.
Izuku saw that both Manual and Native were on the ground.
"Can any of you move?" asked Izuku.
"Get out of here"! said Tenya.
"So you're his friend… and jading by such an entrance you're also training to be hero…" said Stain.
Izuku looked at the three of them.
"If it was just Iida I could him out of here but with three of them…" thought Izuku.
But before anything else could be said thankfully a portal opened up.
Izuku breathed a sigh of relief.
However he noticed the panicked looked on Tenya's face.
"Why would Iida be upset?" thought Izuku.
That was when Star arrived.
"All right Izuku… I'm here to fight those monsters…" said Star.
However she saw what was really going on.
Her eyes winded.
She saw Tenya on the ground with Manual nearby… both of them still being unable to move.
She pointed her wand at Stain.
"You're the Hero Killer aren't you?" asked Star.
"I am… and you're the princess playing hero…" said Stain having her heard about Star.
Star stared to cry.
"Tenya… how could you!" yelled Star, "You promised me… you promised me…"
That was when she remembered his exact promise that he wouldn't go alone.
"Tenya!" yelled Star.
She created a shield in-between her and Stain and walked over to Tenya.
She picked him up which was quite impressive considering he was much taller than Star.
Started to shake him.
"Star he's injured stop that!" yelled Izuku.
"NO!" yelled Star, "He made a bad promise!"
"Star you shouldn't be shaking him!" cried Izuku.
Star stopped him unceremoniously onto the ground.
"You made it seem like you wouldn't go after him! You got injured and I'm sure if Izuku didn't rescue you would have died! That's exactly why I didn't want you to do that!" yelled Star.
"Star?" asked Izuku.
"Why did you make a stupid promise like that!" yelled Star, "You knew why I didn't want you to do it! Did you really think bringing someone with you would really help?"
"I'm sorry…" said Tenya.
"I don't want to hear it…" muttered Star.
Tenya winced, not because of the drop… but because of the fact he knew he betrayed her trust…
"I'm going to help you get out of this mess, but I'm really angry with you right now…" said Star.
Tenya winced.
"You shouldn't be here… this is my fight…" said Tenya.
"Well you should have thought that when you brought that hero in!" scolded Star.
Tenya winced.
Izuku looked at Star and sighed knowing it was something they would have to talk about once this was over.
Stain on the other hand was just watching the drama unsure how to react.
HE deiced that it went on for long enough and he tried to attack the shield but it was much harder than he thought it would.
"What is this!" he demanded.
"It's magic!" said Star, "It's going to take a lot of work to get passed it."
"She's really angry…" thought Izuku.
"Izuku!" yelled Star, "Do you think you can back me up as much as you can?" asked Star.
"About that." Said Izuku.
However before he could say more…
A large piece of ice headed towards Stain.
However Stain saw it coming and cut it in half.
"Another hero?" asked Stain.
"I should have known it would be something like this… you're not one to leave cryptic messages." Said the person who sent the ice.
It was Shoto.
He had decided to intern with his father. The reason was thanks to his conversation with Izuku during the sports festival and the fact he went to finally visit his mother after so many years he was finally going to properly use his fire. But unfortunately his father was the best hero to teach him how to properly use his fire side. Endeavor had decided that week they would head to Hosu to try to catch Stain. Which was why he was in Hosu.
"Star you're here too… did you come here to go after him too?" asked Shoto.
"Nope! I have my scissors on me… but it sounds like that's what happened with you." said Star.
Shoto looked at Star and saw Izuku's face as if saying "She'll explain later…"
Izuku then had strange glowing lines all over his body as he began to spark with green power.
Star looked at her friend.
"That's new." She said.
"You don't have to worry about me breaking my bones any more…" said Izuku.
"I doubt that…" said Star, "But I get the feeling that it's going to be harder…"
Izuku nodded.
Stain looked at the three teen looking at him all ready for a fight.
None of them knew how the fight was going to go… but it was going to be a very interesting fight for sure…
Next Time: The Fight with Stain really begins. What is Stain's quirk and even with Star's magic will he be able to beat the three heroes in training? find out next time!
