MHA: Draigon
I've returned with the thirteenth chapter of MHA: Draigon. Last time we left off, the students were scattered, Aizawa and Thirteen were injured, Iida's running for help, and Nemo's about to fight the Nomu. Let's see where this goes.
"You can erase people's powers, that's irritating but nothing special. When faced with true power you may as well be a Quirkless little child." Said the hand man. Aizawa glared at him and activated his Quirk, right before the monster crushed his left arm, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Hands off!" Roared Nemo as he came flying in and punched the monster in the jaw.
"D-Draigon!?" Exclaimed Aizawa.
"I've told you," Said Nemo as he then ignited his leg and kicked the monster and sprinted off of it, "to call me Nemo."
"Tomura Shigaraki." Said the mist villain as he appeared.
"Kurogiri." Replied the hand villain. "Have you managed to kill Thirteen?"
"The rescue hero is out of commission, but there were students that I were unable to disperse and one of them got outside of the facility." Replied Kurogiri.
"Huh?" Asked Shigaraki as he turned to look at his fellow villain. He stood there for a moment before bringing a hand up to scratch his neck. Soon he was frantically scratching his neck like a psycho. "Kurogiri… you fool…" He growled. "If you weren't our warp gate, I'd tear apart every last atom in your body." Then he stopped. "There's no way we can win if dozens of pros show up to stop us, it's game over, back to the title screen, and I was so looking forward to finishing this today. Dammit, let's go home."
"Wssamatter? Scared of a few pros?" Said Nemo with his arms crossed.
"Oh, before we leave, let's make sure the symbol of peace is broken." Said Shigaraki as he turned and looked in a different direction. Nemo turned and followed his gaze, his eyes landing on Izuku, Mineta, and Tsuyu. "Let's wreck his pride!" Suddenly he was in front of the trio. "Let's make this hurt!" He then reached towards Asui.
Suddenly Nemo was next to him. "Hands off freak show!" He roared as he swung a flaming fist at Shigaraki. Next thing he knew a purple portal appeared in front of him and the force of his attack caused him to fall through, straight into the fist of that monster. Nemo tasted blood as he was sent flying backwards. As he hit the ground he looked over at his friends. Shigaraki's fingers were on Tsuyu's face, but nothing was happening.
"Shigaraki just sat there for a moment, then he turned and said, "You really are so cool." He was talking to Aizawa who'd managed to life his head up enough to use his Quirk. "Eraserhead." The monster then lifted his arm before slamming the teachers face back into the ground.
"Mr Aizawa!" Shouted Nemo.
Mashirao was not a fan of his current situation. He was separated from the rest of his classmates and was facing a group of villains all on his own. All while inside of a burning building. His years of martial arts training were the only reason he wasn't dead yet. He quickly batted away another William with his tail. "Got you now you brat!" Shouted another villain who suddenly appeared behind him. Ojiro's eyes widened in shock. No time to dodge! No time to counterattack! This was it!
"Iron Dragon Club!" Suddenly a rod made of metal came out of nowhere and bashed the villain in the side of the head, then another villain appeared.
"Sky Dragon Wing Attack! Two bursts of wind came flying through and sent the villain flying. Then in came… two Nemos!?
"Mashirao, we're here to help." Said the first.
"Did I… miss something?" Asked Ojiro.
"The original copied Naruto and his Shadow Clone Jutsu, he sent us to find and help out classmates while he fights the remaining villains. Aizawa's out of commission, but we need to focus on keeping you safe." Said the second.
"What about you?" Asked Mashirao.
"If we quote-unquote die, we'll just surf into smoke and anything we saw or learned will get sent to the original." Explained the first.
"Now quit dawdling and help us fight." Said the second as he blasted another villain with wind.
"Alright." Said Ojiro. With that the three charged the remaining villains.
Tokoyami was doing hi best to protect his silent classmate from the onslaught of villains. Unfortunately, Koda's, as he'd learned was the name of his classmate at an early time, Quirk, was called Anivoice, which let him communicate with and essentially tell animals what to do. Whether he controlled them or just convinced them to lend assistance, he was unsure, but either way, his Quirk wasn't going to do much in the hurricane area, where any animals would have longed vacated the vicinity long ago. Fortunately it was incredibly dark so that made Dark Shadow stronger, though Fumikage was concerned about letting his Quirk run wild. Suddenly they were charged by multiple villains. He didn't have time to protect himself and Koda!
"White Dragon…" Came a familiar voice.
"Shadow Dragon…" Came a similar one.
"Roar/Slash!" The two voices shouted. Suddenly a beam of white energy blasted some villains while blades of shadows slashed away others. Two more clones of Nemo came flying in. They were quick to explain what was happening and with that, the three attacked the remaining villains.
Kyoka and Momo stared at the villain holding their brain dead friend hostage. One wrong move, and Kaminari was a dead man, and they'd soon follow him. "You know what? I think I'm gonna kill your friend now." Said the villain as he prepared to use his Quirk.
"No do-" started Jirou, then there was a sound of thunder as lightning suddenly surrounded the body of the villain, causing him to jerk in pain and drop Denki. Suddenly Nemo appeared in front of them.
"Hope I'm not too late to the party, Kyoka was it?" He asked.
"That's right." She said.
Suddenly another villain attacked. "Poison Dragon Sharp Horn!" Shouted a voice, suddenly a second Nemo came in and punched the villain, then releases a burst of a dark purple substance at point-blank range, which caused poison damage and burn on the villain, sending him flying backwards. The two clones quickly filled the girls in, then while they protected Denki, the Nemo's attacked the remaining villains.
Izuku leapt into the air as he charged One for All through his arm, and swung his fist at Shigaraki. "You! Let her go! Now!" He shouted as the villain turned to look at him. "Smaaaaaash!" As his fist made contact there was a huge burst of wind and the nearby water was blown back, as well as most of the remaining villains. The wind was so strong it destroyed the nearby lights. Nemo covered his face with his arms as he stood his ground against the wind. Once it stopped. He uncovered his face to see the scene in front of him. There was smoke where Izuku and Shigaraki had been. When it cleared, Nemo noticed three things. The first being that Deku's arm hadn't been damaged by his attack, the second was the fact that the monster had been the one to get hit, and third was that Izuku's attack hadn't hurt him. The look of relief of not hurting himself quickly gave way to the look of despair at the sight of the unharmed villain.
"You're pretty powerful. This 'smash' of yours, are you one of All Might's disciples? Doesn't matter, I'm done with you now." Said Shigaraki. The monster then reached down and grabbed Izuku's arm.
"Fire Dragon Talon!" Shouted Nemo as he suddenly appeared between Izuku and the monster before delivering a flaming kick to the monster's jaw. Nemo then grabbed Midoriya's other arm as he prepared to pull his friend free, but not before his eyes landed on Shigaraki, as he reached for Asui and Mineta, the latter of which had tears in his eyes from fear. "There's no time, my friends are gonna die, and I can't do anything to save them." Thought Nemo.
Suddenly there was a loud bang, causing everyone to stop what they were doing, they turned and saw the now open doors of the U.S.J, which now has smoke coming from it. Nemo's Quirk let him hear it loud and clearly. The thudding of dress shoes and the sounds of happiness coming from his classmates at the entrance to the facility. "Have no fear students." Said All Might. "I am here!"
"All Might." Said Nemo.
"We're saved!" Said Mineta.
"Ribbit." Said Asui.
"He's here." Said Izuku, who was now away from the villain along with Nemo. "All Might."
"Ah. Looks like our game's getting a continue." Said Shigaraki.
"I can't believe he's here." Said one of the remaining villains.
"I've never seen him in real life, he's even bigger than I thought." Said another.
"This isn't the time you idiots." Said a third. "If we strike all at once, we can still kill hi-" Suddenly the pro vanished and all the low level villains were blasted away. Then All Might was in front of Nemo and co. with the I hired Aizawa under his arm.
"So fast. I barely kept up with him." Thought Nemo.
"I'm sorry Aizawa, I should've been here." Said All Might to his colleague. Then he vanished again. Nemo didn't have time to react as his teacher grabbed him and his friends and pulled them away from the villains.
"What the heck?" Asked Mineta when he realized that their location had changed.
"Everybody get back to the entrance, and take Aizawa with you." Said All Might as he stood to face the villains. "He doesn't have much time."
"Yessir!" Said Mineta as he and Tsuyu ran to grab Aizawa.
"Ribbit!" Croaked Asui.
"You saved us sir." Said Izuku.
"Yeah, thanks." Said Nemo. Then the three of them looked at the villains.
Shigaraki was covering his face with his hands, the one that had been on his face had fallen off when All Might pulled them away. "No, no, no! It wasn't supposed to go this way. He's still fast father." He fell to his knees as he lifted up the fallen hand. Then he put the hand on his face. "Somehow he managed to hit me. Of course the government hero relies on violence. I wasn't prepared, I couldn't even see him when he moved, but he's not as fast as I thought he'd be. Not as fast as he used to be. I guess it's true after all," he had a crazed look on in his eye as he looked at them, "All Might is getting weaker."
Izuku grunted as he life's Aizawa onto his shoulders, while Mineta grabbed his legs. "All Might, you can't." Said Izuku, catching the attention of his allies. "That brain villain took One fo- u-uh I smashed him and I didn't break my arm this time, but he wasn't fazed at all. He's too strong!"
"Young Midoriya!" Said All Might as he extended a hand at his student. "I've got this!" He gave his students a peace sign. Izuku looked at him for a moment before turning and walking away with Aizawa.
The four students walked away, with Izuku constantly looking over his shoulder at the clashing hero and villain, with All Might being unable to hurt the monster. "Well, What are you waiting for?" Asked Nemo.
"Huh?" Asked Izuku in confusion as he looked back at Nemo.
"You're going to help him the moment you get the chance to leave, and quite frankly so am I. So let's just get a move on." Said Nemo. They then heard a loud explosion as a big cloud of smoke began to rise from where All Might and the villain were fighting. "And it looks like we need to get going, otherwise this fight'll end even sooner than I think it will."
Izuku looked at his friend in a shocked silence for a moment. "What are you saying Nemo? If we try to help we'll only get in the way, besides, All Might is unstoppable." Said Asui. Nemo scoffed at that. Suddenly his eyes widened.
"Crud!" He said loudly as his head whipped around and looked at where the fight was happening.
"What is it Nechan?" Asked Deku.
"All Might's in trouble, the brain guy has All Might trapped halfway through one of that warp guy's portals, and they're about to rip him in half!" Said Nemo.
Izuku's expression became one of horror. "Asui?" Asked Midoriya.
"Yeah? What is it Midoriya?" Asked Tsuyu.
"Can you hold Mr. Aizawa for me?" He asked.
"Sure, but what're you gonna do?" She asked as she took the unconscious teacher from him. Izuku didn't respond as he and Nemo walked past them, then took off running to help the number one pro hero.
"Are you crazy!?" Shouted Mineta.
"We aren't gonna let it end here. Izuku needs you if he's gonna master One for All!" Thought Nemo.
"We're coming!" Shouted Nemo and Deku.
Then Izuku leapt forwards. "Let him go!" He shouted.
"How foolish." Said Kurogiri as he appeared in front of them.
Suddenly there was an explosion from directly above them that blew Kurogiri back. "Keep your misty hands to yourself you freak!" Shouted Kacchan. Nemo heard a strange crackling sound, he turned and saw ice moving across the ground before covering the right half of the monster's body.
"Ice?" Thought Nemo, then his head whipped around and saw Todoroki.
"One of your poorly trained thugs told me you're here so you can kill All Might." Said the half frozen hero. Using the half frozen villain to his advantage, All Might loosened the villains grip and freed himself, then staggered and grabbed his bleeding left side. Where he'd been injured all those years ago and where the villain had hurt him now.
"Are you ok?" Asked Deku.
Suddenly there was a scream as Kirishima came flying in and slashed his hardened hands at Shigaraki, who quickly dodged. Then Eijirou jumped back to the others. "D**m that was going to be cool." He said.
"Guess I found your body that time you smokey b*****d." Said Katsuki as he used Kurogiri's metal collar to pin him.
"The Symbol of Peace will not be defeated by delinquents like you." Said Todoroki.
"Kacchan, everyone." Said Izuku as he looked at their newly arrived classmates. He then wiped away at the tears forming in his eyes before focusing his attention on Shigaraki.
The hand covered villain looked at his companion. "Kurogiri, how could you let this brat get the best of you?" He asked. "You've gotten us into a real jam now."
"Heh, you'd gotten careless you dumb villain. It wasn't hard to figure you out. Only parts of you turn into that smoking warp gate, you use those parts to hide your actual body, thinking that that made you safe, that's why we missed. But if you didn't have a body you wouldn't be wearing this neck armor right? We just need to make sure our attacks are well aimed." Said Bakugou. Kurogiri struggled against him, but a few small explosions were enough to stop him. "Try anything and I'll blow you so far to h**l that they'll be piecing you back together for weeks.
"Woah that doesn't sound very heroic." Joked Kirishima.
"They escaped and captured my two strongest men. Kids these days really are amazing." Said Shigaraki. "They make the league of villains look like amateurs, can't have that." Then he turned to the monster. "Nomu." Suddenly the monster forced itself through the portal, breaking of it's frozen parts in the process, surprising everyone.
"How's that thing still moving? It's almost up." Said Midoriya in shock.
"Stay back everyone!" Shouted All Might.
The remaining ice broke away, suddenly a mass of red appeared from where the ice had been and began to take shape. "S**t!" Thought Nemo as he realized what was happening. He then ignored All Might's orders as he leapt forward and took a deep breath. "Fire Dragon Roar!" Shouted Nemo as he breathed a giant burst of fire at Nomu. The two disappeared into smoke, and when it faded, it showed Nomu with a new right arm and leg, and his whole body covered in now healing scorch marks, as it held the struggling Nemo by his throat and scarf.
"What is this! I thought you said his power was Shock Absorption!?" Said All Might angrily.
"I did, but I never said that that was his only Quirk, he's also got Super Regeneration as well." Said Shigaraki. "Nomu is modified to take you one, even at one hundred percent of your power. He's basically a highly efficient punching bag who hits back, why don't you show them Nomu?"
Nomu then grabbed onto Nemo's left arm with his other hand and yanked. Nemo barely had the time to process it as he felt his skin and muscles rip and tear before his arm was completely torn away at the shoulder. Nemo let out a scream of agony. "Young Nemo!" Exclaimed All Might.
Nemo then grit his teeth and glared through the pain before taking a deep breath. "Fire Dragon-" He shouted.
"Oh no, can't have that now can we?" Said Shigaraki. Then Nomu tightened his grip around Nemo's throat, crushing his windpipe. Nemo gagged and coughed up blood which splattered on the Nomu's face and his own shirt. "Well, I think that enough of that, get rid of him." Said Shigaraki. Nomu then turned and hurled Nemo towards the trees, Nemo flew, hitting the ground multiple times but still going, like a stone skipping over water, his jacket that was hanging from his shoulders falling off along the line, before crashing into the trees. Many of them shattered, and when he finally stopped, he was hanging there with multiple branches sticking through his body, skewering him. Nemo tried to struggle, but he couldn't even breathe, he felt his strength fading. He pushed with his right hand for a moment, before it went limp, then his head sagged forward.
Nemo Draigon.
Was dead.
Izuku felt the entire world around him freeze, he didn't notice the tears in his eyes, as he screamed out one, gut wrenching, heart breaking word. "NECHAN!"
I've… got nothing to say...
