I decided to head over there a figure out what was going on. I went outside and activated Mode Two, I jumped into the air and flew towards where everyone else was at. There was a separate, smaller island located next to Nabu. Why exactly were they there?
"Hey, what's going on over there? Was there an accident?" I asked Momo telepathically.
She responded and I immediately knew something was wrong!
"V-Villain..." She told me.
I darted in her direction; I saw some guy attacking everyone! Right as he used some type of shock-wave move at Momo, I flew in and grabbed her!
(I.R.P.: Listen to "Sirius" by Eir Aoi)
"Oh? Someone else has decided to join the party?" He announced.
I looked down at Momo, "Hey, are you alright?"
"I-I'm... okay..." She slightly smiled before she lost consciousness.
I set her on the ground, and I turned towards that guy. His Heat Energy... It felt very similar to All For One's and Shigaraki's!
"Alyx!" I heard Jiro yell.
Where was Deku and Bakugo? I swore I felt their Heat Energy here as well. I looked over at that man and stared him down.
"Hmph... You remind me of someone..." The guy muttered.
"Oh? Is that so? Let me assure you that whoever you're thinking of, I'm probably ten notches above them." I smirked.
I got into my fighting stance and waited for him to make a move.
"Yes... Unfortunately." He responded.
I darted towards him, but he just stood there. Was he planning some sort of attack? What was he doing?
"Overdrive Fist!" I shouted.
I hit some sort of force shield! He had multiple layers up, and I broke through 3 of them before the 4th one set me flying back! So, it's gonna be like that, huh? I rebounded after rolling on the ground.
"Geez! This guy has some wicked moves!" I thought to myself.
"How interesting, the two from earlier couldn't get through my shields. Looks like I won't have to hold back against you then, shall I?" He remarked.
This guy had a strangely calm demeanor, it was almost intimidating! All of the sudden, his eyes turned from gray to yellow!
"Alyx Leonidus, Age 16, Quirk: Overdrive. Correct?" He questioned.
H-how did he? What did he do? I hadn't even mentioned my first name, not to mention my Quirk! It's almost as if he read me like a book!
"How did you...?" I wondered.
He just stared at me, then raised one of his hands. He shot out these purple colored beams out of his fingertips, almost like my Stardust Shoot! I darted out of the way, and they exploded on the ground where I was!
I put both of my hands out, "Stardust Shoot: 10 Fingers!"
I shot them at him, but he put up his barrier before my move could reach them! He was about to attack, but he stopped. He looked over, and noticed something. There, behind a rock, were two kids! He started to walk over to them, they ran away, but he somehow got right behind the girl and grabbed her by the neck!
"Mahoro!" I heard the boy shout.
In a flash, I was in front of him, I hit him at full power with my Overdrive Fist, and I grabbed the girl. It sent him flying into a nearby stone structure!
"You okay?" I asked the girl.
She nodded and held onto me tightly. This guy must've been after these kids, but why?
"L-Look!" The boy yelled.
I looked up and an explosion of purple and red light came from where that guy was.
"Get behind me!" I yelled to the kids.
"Alyx!" I heard Deku yell.
I turned back to see him and Bakugo! They looked beat up!
"Who in the hell is this guy?!" I shouted.
The sky turned dark, and the island started to become engulfed in flames!
"Nine! That's his name apparently!" Deku told me.
He floated down to us, visibly enraged. He screamed in anger, as he unleashed these dragon looking attacks from his back! Deku and Bakugo grabbed the kids, and we ran! Those attacks, they were almost like homing missiles! I noticed one was almost to Izuku and the boy.
"Deku!" I shouted.
I pushed him out of the way and took the attack head on! The dragon attack somehow opened its mouth and slammed me into the ground! I struggled to break free from its mouth.
"BOOST FIRE TIMES 40!" I shouted and broke free from the attack.
I rushed over to Nine, and he fired off those purple beams at me. I dodged some, but a couple grazed me. I charged him straight into the ground. He blasted me back with his force shield, those shields were starting to piss me off!
"DIAMOND BUSTER: TIMES TEN!" I shouted as I fired off a larger variant of my Diamond Buster.
It broke through his shields and sent him burrowing through the ground. Nine exploded and sent more of those dragon attacks at me! It took everything out of me to try and dodge those things, right as I dodged the last one, I heard the kids cry out, "Mr. Deku! Mr. Bakugo!" I looked over and saw that they were ensnared by those dragon attacks! Before I could move towards them, Nine appeared in front of me, and hit me in the stomach. He grabbed my neck, and tossed me into a tree.
As I tried to get back up, he shot my right shoulder with his beam attack.
"GRAAH...! Hngh..." I yelled out in pain.
There was a small hole in my arm!
"You should't have gotten in my way, my path will NOT be obstructed, got that?" Nine fumed.
"Y-You can... Fuck right off... Asshole..." I panted.
I slowly got back up, and I charged after him. He used his shield to knock me back. I hit the ground hard, and I felt like my body was being weighed down! I looked back and saw those kids cowering in fear, I can't give up here, not until those two are safe! I struggled to stand back up; my entire body was in shambles.
"Here I thought you'd be more of a challenge. It seems you heroes are nothing more than fodder," Nine said, "Hand over the children, now."
I looked up at him, the kids ran behind me, and tried to help me up.
(I.R.P.: Listen to "Stop Them With All Your Power!" From My Hero Academia)
"O-Over... My d-dead... Body..." I scowled.
"Very well. I have no reason to hold back anymore... Perish." He smirked.
He unleashed another huge blast that looked like a dragon! I heard the children scream, I put up a shield and the blast connected.
"I-I... W-WON'T... LET YOU... HURT THEM!" I shouted at Nine.
I felt his attack start to break through my shield, I kept putting more and more layers on it. I looked behind me, The kids were frozen and crying out of fear.
"R-RUN!" I shouted at the kids.
They nodded and ran as fast as they could.
"It's a shame, I didn't think I'd have to kill anyone today!" Nine shouted.
I felt myself getting pushed back, I looked back behind me and noticed the cliff-side had crumbled. I tried pushing forward, but the force of his attack was too much! This was it; no one was here to save me. Everyone was either unconscious or too far away. I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. I still needed to make time for those kids to escape, no matter what! I just needed to break through my limits and save myself!
I opened my eyes and looked at Nine, "BOOST FIRE! TIMES 100!"
My rose-gold aura rose higher into the sky and I started to push him back! I planted my foot down and took very slow steps forward.
"Why must you resist?! There isn't a point! Just die!" He shouted.
"I won't quit... Not until my heart isn't beating, I'll do whatever it takes to take you down!" I yelled.
Then, I heard a loud boom! I looked up and noticed there was a sun spot in the sky, almost as if someone opened up the clouds!
Nine turned around, "W-what? No..."
I looked over and my eyes widened, Deku and Bakugo!
"You've saved us once before-" Bakugo shouted.
"-Now it's our turn to save you! With Double... One For All!" Deku finished.
They both had One For All at 100% and they smashed right into Nine and sent him flying! They rushed past me after Nine, I stood there with that blank feeling again.
"Izuku... Katsuki... Thank you." I told them telepathically.
I watched as they both were hammering down on Nine! The power of One For All was truly incredible...
Then, I remembered what Annie told me, "I don't think I should tell you this, but that friend of yours, Izuku was it? All Might told me everything... Once he passed down One For All to him, there was only a certain amount of times he could use it. Tonight... Just might be the night he loses One For All."
Izuku... Izuku Midoriya! May One For All still be in your grasps! Dad, Tanjiro, Nezuko, please! Once Nine is defeated, let Izuku keep One For All! For me... Please! I fell to the ground, I couldn't move my body anymore, before I lost consciousness, I saw a bright flash of light in the sky. Everything went black, I couldn't see anything but I was still breathing. I felt myself blink, but I couldn't see anything at all! I heard wings flapping and someone landed down next to me.
"Hey, you alright kid?" He asked me.
"I... I can't... I c-can't... See..." I mustered to say.
As I said this, I felt myself slip out of consciousness again.
