The hero killer arc here we come!
A BUNCH OF NOMUS AND THE HERO KILLER! FIGHTING!
"Gunhead is so cool!" Ochako beamed happily at the girls in Best Jeanist's reception for the night patrol. "He's been teaching me a lot of self defense techniques!"
"I'm glad that you liked it." Izuku replied with a tired smile.
"Are you alright Izuku-chan?" Momo asked as she looked at her sightly tired eyes, Izuku was very good at hiding it but there was no denying it that the corner of her eyes were a little strained.
"I could barely sleep last night." Izuku yawned.
For the past couple of days she's been having weird dreams of the Hero Killer, Tomura, her father and an injured Iida but last night was ever weirder. It was like a warning, also, she's been training with Gran Torino for a while but she was not complaining because he was a very good swordsman and she has learned a lot of things from him.
"Lucky you." Mina chuckled. "I knew that boy wouldn't keep it in his pants for that long."
"It's not like that!" Izuku gave accusatory eyes at Mina who waved it off with a wink. "Gran Torino is a tough teacher...And I'm having weird dreams, I feel like something bad it's going to happen soon." She rolled her shoulders.
"You think?" Ochako gave her a nervous smile. "It's about the Hero Killer, right?" She looked at both sides before whispering. "You're worried about Iida-kun too?"
"Yeah." Izuku pursed her lips.
"Don't worry, I don't think our knight friend would do something reckless, Kero." Tsuyu said.
"Maybe I'm exaggerating so don't give it much of a thought." Izuku gave them a reassuring smile.
"I think we should have our eyes sharp." Momo said with a serious face. "We're dealing with a murderer after all." She said and the girls felt a shiver down their spines in fear.
"HURRY! THE CITY IS IN FLAMES!" A man entered the building ash covering his body before running back outside.
Izuku couldn't believe her eyes, Hosu City was completely in flames, people were running in all directions to get far away from the multiple monsters of different shapes, five to be exact.
They looked exactly like Nomu from the USJ incident, her eyes snapped and took a leap in the sky and roamed her eyes all over the ceilings to find any villain from months ago. She discovered a mist over a building and growled immediately as she made eye contact with Tomura and Kurogiri, she gripped One For All and prepared to attack them until a big Nomu crashed his body against her.
"FUCK! GET OFF ME!" She struggled with the monster as they fell but she managed to be the one above when they crashed into the ground. She rolled away from him and looked up to find him being electrocuted, she whipped her head to find Kaminari touching the water that touched Nomu's feet while giving her the thumbs up. "THANKS KAMINARI!" She nodded and rolled her sword, she jumped and from the corner of her eyes she could see Gran Torino joining the fight. The pair pierced the head with their swords, the body shook a few times until he died and they jumped back.
Was the Nomu even alive in the first place?
"It seems that we got into something crazy!" The little man looked around. " WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE THINGS ANYWAYS?!"
"LANGUAGE!" She mocked her little mentor.
"MIDORIYA, YOU ARE NOT ANY BETTER!" Iida yelled in the distance.
"WHY ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT ME BASTARDS?!" Katsuki shouted annoyed.
"YOU CORRUPTED MY PRINCE!" Ochako yelled.
"I DON'T SEE HER COMPLAINING AT BEING CORRUPTED!" He yelled at Ochako in a somehow sly tone at his last word.
"HOW ABOUT WE TALK ABOUT THAT LATER AND MORE FIGHTING?!" Izuku said to her boyfriend as she killed another Nomu with Gran Torino.
"So, we'll talk about that later?" Katsuki whispered as he pressed his back against hers.
"...Maybe, later." She responded as another Nomu was aiming at her.
Todoroki created a wave of ice that covered the monster and Katsuki made an explosion that destroyed the Nomu covered in ice in million pieces so it couldn't regenerate itself again.
"This Nomu isn't as strong as the Nomu from USJ." Todoroki noted. "They're slower."
"FUCK! IT SEEMS THAT THEY ONLY HAVE EYES ON YOU, DEKU!" Katsuki growled darkly and blasted away another Nomu that was about to jump at her. "WHAT DID YOU DO THIS TIME?!"
This seemed like a freaking test, but...What for?!
"I DON'T KNOW, THAT'S WHAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW!" Izuku argued as she ran and jumped in front of another Nomu, she hit his chin with her knee with the power of One For All and the monster fell on his back while she pierced her sword of his head. She whipped her head around as she stood over Nomu's dead body to find her classmates helping the citizens while the rest of the heroes took care of the other monsters.
"HELP!" Someone cried and Izuku jumped off the creature while the two princes followed her.
"IS THAT ALL YOU'VE GOT?!" Denki shouted at the last Nomu on the floor until a mist appeared in the middle of them and more nomus passed through the portal, probably more than 10.
"You had to ask." Jirou cried.
"KIRISHIMA!/INNA!" Katsuki and Izuku yelled at the same time.
"YOU GOT IT BRO!" Kirishima yelled back before transforming into a big red dragon, he flew up in the sky with Katsuki over his back and took a few Nomus in his mouth.
"CAN'T LET YOU HAVING ALL THE FUN!" Inna said to Kirishima as he appeared from a big portal above Izuku's head.
"MY MAN!"
The two dragons took most of the monsters making it easier for the other heroes to take down the rest.
"Burp!" Inna rubbed his belly.
"Solid." Kirishima said to the other dragon.
"Thanks." Inna hit his tail softly against Kirishima's tail.
"That was a bonding moment man." The red dragon cheered. "So manly!"
"Hey! So that means...that... they ate them?" Sero asked with a disgusted face. "I am disgusted but intrigued."
"What a disturbing fact." Ochako said.
"Yeah, that we didn't know we needed." Momo said. "I'm actually sickened but curious."
"That can't be tasty...Kero." Tsuyu said.
"That boy better brush his teeth before kissing me." Mina warned. "I ain't having kisses that taste like Nomu."
"Tenya? WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!" A hero named Manual yelled as he saw the young knight running towards a dark alley.
Izuku and Todoroki perked up at that, they made eye contact while they fought back some Nomus.
"I'm sure he will come back." Izuku waved it off as she saw where Iida took off.
"...Maybe we should check, just in case." Todoroki suggested after an awkward silence.
"Good idea." She said before the pair ran towards the dark alley, when they were around the corner a Nomu jumped in front of them and Todoroki blocked him.
"MIDORIYA GO!" Todoroki yelled and she ran.
"The Hero...Killer." Izuku muttered in horror as she saw Iida all over the floor looking at the killer with an unconscious body next to him. The man was wrapped in many bandages, a lot of knives on his body and holding two swords on each hand.
There was no mistake, it was just like her dream from days ago but this time she was no friend.
"No matter what you say...YOU'RE JUST THE CRIMINAL WHO HURT MY BROTHER!" Iida yelled darkly.
"Die."
Izuku widened her eyes as Stain lowered his sword over her friend and she jumped incredibly fast, the villain could only see green and red lightning lunging at him until a fist collided hard against his cheek.
"SMAAAASH!" Izuku landed protectively with a strong stance in front of lida and swung One For All in front of her. "I came to save you, Iida-kun!" She said as her eyes were trained on her opponent that she pushed many meters away.
"I know you." Stain said as he incorporated himself but still rubbing his cheek and smirked, his jaw was broken. He recalled hours ago how Tomura said really bad things about All Might and this girl. "That kid Tomura said a lot of things about you, not pretty things." He added.
"I'll take that as a compliment." Izuku gave a shit eating grin at him. "We don't get along pretty well, not the best buddies there." She snickered.
"Well, we have something in common there." He clicked his tongue. "Sick bastards."
"Couldn't agree more, Hero Killer." She gripped One For All harder and her eyes flashed a dangerous green.
"I can't move...my body since he sliced me." Iida groaned and Izuku noticed the big injury on his shoulder.
"So getting a cut on his victims must activate his power." She said to herself.
"Midoriya get away from here! This has nothing to do with you!" He cried behind her.
"What are… you saying?" She asked in shock.
"Your friend came to save you, that's a good line isn't it?" Stain interrupted and Izuku tensed at his tone. "But, I have a duty to kill him...if you step in then, of course." He made eye contact with her and she flinched in fear as she recognized the murdering gaze. "If we clash, the weaker will perish...Now, what will you do?"
This is different from USJ, Izuku had to find a way to get some time, she shouldn't have come alone. She moved the wrist that had the magical device behind over her back and switched it so one of her fingers could touch the bracelet to send her location to all her contacts hoping for Todoroki to take the hint.
Todoroki-kun, hurry the hell up!
"I told you didn't I? THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!" He yelled desperately.
"You...BIG IDIOT!" She snapped, making the two men widen their eyes at her. "BUTTING IN WHEN YOU DON'T NEED TO, THAT'S THE ESSENCE OF BEING A HERO!" She shouted and Stain lowered his arms in shock, she used those seconds to attack him.
"MIDORIYA! DON'T GET SLICED!" Iida cried.
I KNOW I KNOOOOOW!
Izuku went low to aim at his stomach but changed trajectory when he read her movements and slided between his legs leaving a trail of lightning behind. She had to be faster or she'd get cut.
Stain turned around and aimed at her but his sword hit the floor. "She disappeared?!"He thought as he looked up, panicked.
She jumped faster and aimed at the side of his head with the handle of her sword hard enough. "DETROIT SMASH!" She landed behind him but froze as he saw him licking his knife, she widened her eyes as she looked around to find a little cut in her arm. "My body...Did he graze me?" She asked herself. "Such a small cut can…?" She muttered as she discovered that it was not getting cut but the blood, he licked the blood and she got paralyzed.
"Your thinking is good little girl, for a moment you had me there...You're worth keeping around." He gave her a sinister smile before approaching her friend and the unconscious hero called Native. "But those two aren't." He added as he lifted his sword at Iida once again.
"Stop it." She cried as she looked at him and the killer stopped, he trembled as he struggled to move.
"You…" Stain whipped his head at her.
"So, your power only affects the body, huh…" Izuku figured before Stain let out a maniac laugh making the young heroes gulp loudly.
"Good." He struggled to move inch by inch as she felt a strong headache, fighting those nomus drained her telekinesis but she was not giving up. "This is getting interesting!"
Shit, he was getting excited.
Maybe too excited.
It was a battle of who would surpass who.
"STOP IT!" She shouted until a strong wave of fire separated the killer from the two boys and Izuku smiled relieved as she saw a familiar figure in front of them.
"Sorry, I'm late." Todoroki was standing with his left side aflame, he made eye contact with Izuku then turned to the Hero Killer. "That Nomu was very big...luckily my father was around so..."
"One after another." Stain whined and jumped away from the flames. "There are a lot of people stepping into my purging tonight."
Todoroki used his right leg to send a wave of ice down the alley and Izuku felt being lifted by it. "Help is coming this way!" He warned as he set aflame his left arm and shot fire towards Stain.
"Hot!" Izuku whined as the incredible heat that came from that blow melted the side of the ice that protected her and her comrades. They slipped with the water over the floor that was ice moments ago and hit their heads with a wall of ice at the end. "Not again!" She cried as she remembered how slippery Todoriki's ice is. "Todoroki-kun don't let him get a taste of your blood or you'll get paralyzed!" She warned.
"Someone's coming this way, huh?" Stain gritted his teeth as he jumped back from the blow.
"Like you said, I won't let you kill them, Hero Killer." Todoroki said darkly with an intimidating flame embracing his left side.
"You have good friends, Ingenium!" Stain grinned as he swung a sword over Todoroki's right side but it was blocked by a wall of ice.
"A knife?!" Todoroki asked himself as he saw the weapon rolling in the air and wondered if the killer threw it the moment it collided with the ice. He widened his eyes as the killer grabbed the front of his shirt to pull him against him so he could lick the little cut over his left cheek. He set his face on fire before the disgusting and incredibly long tongue of the killer could lick it. "THAT WAS CLOSE!" He gritted his teeth as he sended a bigger wave of ice towards the killer.
"Why you two…?" Iida groaned as we watched the fight. "That guy is mine...please stop it, I inherited my brother's name, I have to do it…!"
"The Ingenium I saw before didn't have that look on his eyes." Todoroki said as he kept the villain at bay with his fire combining it with its ice and lightning started to embrace Izuku's body. "I know that there's a lot of things going on but I won't pry for now."
"TODOROKI-KUN!" Izuku cried as she saw two knives being stabbed in the prince's left arm, she slowly started to feel the control of her own body again and got quickly on her feet as she jumped before she swung One For All.
"Above you!" Iida yelled as Stain went for the head of the unconscious hero but was blocked by a strong wind that blew him away and collided with a building.
"SMAAASH!" Izuku landed hard against the ground as she saw how the face of the criminal got creepier.
"MIDORIYA, FALL BACK!" Todoroki warned her before sending a wall of ice to protect her from Stain, she rolled to the side and ran to Todoroki's side. "What's the plan?" He asked as he sended another blast of fire.
"For starters, not dying." She said as she blasted away the killer who was jumping from side to side like some mad man.
"I like that plan!"
"I think it has to do with the blood, either the more targets he has, the weaker the effect or depending the blood type." She explained and Stain smiled even madder. "Must be the blood type since Iida can't move and I was sliced just moments ago."
"BINGO! GOOD JOB LITTLE GIRL!" Stain leaped at them but Izuku's eyes gleamed red and green and he was pushed away harder this time against another wall surprising the rest.
"FUCK!" Izuku gripped her head in pain. "I guess my sword will do, we have to protect them!"
"I think our best option is to avoid close combat until a professional comes here." Todoroki said as he gripped his injured arm.
"I'll distract him, so watch my back!" She said as her eyes glowed and jumped to attack Stain.
"Guys...Stop it." Iida shouted desperate.
"IF YOU WANT US TO STOP, THEN STAND UP!" Todoroki shouted as he shot with fire to protect Izuku from a slice behind her and Iida widened his eyes in shock. "LOOK PROPERLY AT WHAT YOU WANT TO BE!" He added as his flames got more powerful.
"What kind of hero am I?!" The young knight asked himself as he shed angry tears when the image of his older brother came to his mind. He wanted to use his brother's hero name to give him a lesson.
Tenya, you want to be a hero, too?
Because you're fakes.
Iida moved slightly his fingers before slowly getting on his feet and felt the power in his legs go back to life.
Izuku clashed her sword against the swords of Stain and he got pushed back but managed to slice her ankles so she got paralyzed again. She rolled into the wall and could see that the killer changed his target and ran in Todoroki's direction.
"TODOROKI-KUN!" She stopped Stain mere seconds with her telekinesis before he could slice the prince's middle and she gave enough time for the young knight to break the sword with a kick before kicking with his other leg the villain away from his friend.
"He's fast!" Stain marked to himself.
"Iida-kun!" Izuku smiled.
"Todoroki, Midoriya, this has nothing to do with you and I apologize." Iida's gaze was glued to the floor.
"It's no use trying to be reformed for appearance's sake." Stain straightened up and looked at Iida. "You'll never be anything but fake who prioritizes his own selfish desires."
"Iida, don't listen to a murderer's logic." Todoroki watched his friend who tensed up at the killer's remark.
"He's right." Iida said quietly and Stain jumped to attack him but Todoroki pushed him away and blasted him away with his fire. "WATCH OUT!" He yelled and blocked with his arm a knife that was shot in the prince's direction.
"IIDA!" Todoroki shouted.
Stain released another knife towards the same arm but it got blocked by a strange force, he snapped his head to look at Izuku to find her smirking at him as she got on her feet and spit some blood that ran down her nose. "Oho!"
"IIDA-KUN! TODOROKI-KUN!" Izuku shouted and they nodded as they got the same idea, they had to attack at the same time if they wanted to defeat him."NOW!"
The young knight impulsed himself from the ground to jump at the same time Izuku levitated herself and swung her sword at the killer as Iida lifted his leg to kick him.
I'll throw away my arm! Recipro...Extend!
One For All...Full cowling!
If I just...
Have my leg…
...Have my arm.
That's all I need right now!
