Chapter 3: A new Origin. Part. 3
Last Time
Bakugou growled turned tail and stomped away! Bakugou's two cronies then looked at the group wondering if they should aveng their leader. They soon decided to hightail it when Hikari turned to them and said in a dangerous voice, "Oh don't worry boys, you'll be joining him real soon.", and that's when they dashed for the exit calling for Bakugou to wait for them!
Now
After school the three friends were walking on the street next to one another, not riding Hikari back to their homes just walking seeing Izuku's expression, as Izuku walked with them at a slow pace he looked down at his fish nibbled, soaking wet, burnt hero notebook.
Hikari tried to help and asked, "Why the long face Izu-poney? Is it you're notebook? Don't worry I'll fix it up in a jiffy!"
He then grabbed the notebook and was about to shake it dry when Ko snagged it from him while scolding him firmly, "Are you crazy?! You'll reduce it to wet tissue paper you loon! Sometimes in life you need to take things slowly."
"What is slow?", the electric green teen asked?
Ko sweat dropped and replied, "Why am I not surprised that word isn't in your vocabulary."
"No.", Izuku said softly. This was enough to get his friends attention as they looked at him questionly, "It's fine, you can do that. It's practically nothing but tissue paper at this point."
This made the other two boys falter and unable to speak at what their normally opernistic friend just said! Ko was the only one able to speak as he stammered, "No no no Izuku, we can fix this! It'll just take a little time is all!"
But Izuku didn't reply he didn't make any sign of reaction, he simply kept on walking. Ko and Hikari were already bummed out by how their friend was acting, seeing him like this almost made them feel defeated. They truly thought that after humiliating Bakugou for the umteeth time he would be alright for the most part, though they never knew their friend would be so deeply affected by his words. True they always tried their best to help him through it, but even after being away from Bakugou for the whole summer break they thought it would help Izuku heal, even a little bit. Instead it just kept those feelings dulled until Bakugou sharpened them again.
Hikari, being a fast think due to his quirk, came up with an idea and zoomed in front of Izuku's path. The smaller green haired teen looked up at his tall friend who suggested with a bright smile on his face, "Hey I know what we can do to cheer you up! How about we go to that pizzeria not too far from here, or maybe for some ice cream, or even to that new America place that just opened.", with every he suggested his mouth watered even more.
Ko punched the speedy teen in the ribs causing him to snap out of his food fantasy and cough a very audible AHEM! Hikari sweat dropped knowing that he should suggest things Izuku likes and not him.
He then tried to save himself by suggesting, "O-O-Or how about w-we go to the museum, Yeah! I heard they have an All Might exhibit."
"No thanks.", Izuku replied in a deadpanned tone while walking around the tall teen.
"Izuku.", he called out in a light tone though couldn't bring himself to say anything else.
Hikari sighed and turning to Ko said, "Not even for All Might?", he questioned it like it was completely crazy, "Seeing him so bummed out his making me bummed out. I don't even feel like running."
"Now that's a lot coming from you.", Ko said with all sincerity and no sarcasm.
"You've known him longer then me and you're always lucky! Maybe you can cheer him up?", Hikari asked hopefully.
Ko look at Izuku then his coin which landed on tails. He looked back at Izuku and speaking to Hikari said, "I don't think I'll be any more help. I think today my luck has just run out. Not so lucky lucky me.", he stated with self disappointment.
Hikari sighed sadly and said, "I was afraid you were gonna say that."
"Sorry.", Ko replied softly. "The best we can do for him right now is just to be their for him.", Hikari nodded and the two boys caught up with their friend.
The three teens walked along the street in uttar suffocating silence through the usual path they always took, though usually it was when they were riding on Hikari. They then walked under the same bridge they passed under a hundred times before. Only this time it was different, as the three teens heard a very distinctive rumbling noise coming from around them.
Ko turned to Hikari with a look of aggravation and distanin as he exclaimed, "Dude if you're that hungry then go get something to eat and meet up with us later."
Hikari looked around rapidly then turned back to the golden eyed teen and replied puzzled, "That wasn't me."
Before Ko could even say 'what' the manhole cover suddenly exploded from the ground and out exploded a giant pile of dark green slim with a mouth and eyes that cried in elived joy at Izuku, "Finally, a new meat sack!"
The slime thing then launched itself at Izuku with blinding speed and enveloped the other two teen pushing them away from their green haired friend! Ko felt himself get pushed against the wall with such a great force it nearly knocked him out! Ko was now pushed against the wall by his back by the same thing yet not enveloped, his head was free so he could still somewhat see and breath. However he soon wishes he wasn't able to see his surroundings as he witnessed the horrifying scene first hand of the slim thing forcing itself down Izukus throat! Ko was so shocked and horrified at the same time he couldn't call out to Izuku in desperation, until he heard Hikaris voice calling out to him!
"Ko! Are you their?! Can you hear me!?", Hikari cried out!
Ko snapped out of his trance and thinking fast called out to Hikari, "I'm fine I'm just pressed up against the wall, so don't worry about me! Worry about Izuku, this slime thing is trying to go into his body and use him like a meat puppet! Vibrate you're partial and get him out of here, I'll be fine!", he instructed.
The sound of Hikari struggling was heard very clearly for a few moments until Hikari called out in panic, "I can't! I can only vibrate my paraticals through solid objects, and this thing is a pseudo liquid!"
Ko looked at the pain and fear filled expression of his friend! It was the only thing that he could he couldn't move, Hikari could move, the only thing he could do was watch on in horror and calling out to him in desperation!
"Izuku!", Ko cried!
"Izu-kun!", Hikari cried!
"Hahahahaha!", the slime thing laughed cynically! "Now just relax and this will be all over before you know it.", it instructed him.
Izuku couldnt breath, he felt cold, weak, stiff, helpless. He could move as tears pricked his eyes he saw his entire life flash before his eyes in all the things he had done and all the thing he wished could have done. 'Is this it? Is this how this all end for me? It hurts,I feel cold, I want it to end. No no I can't let it end like this, I don't want to! Mom, Ko, Hikari, I have to live for them! I want to live for them! I want to be a hero! I want to be the number one hero!'
As Izuku cried these words in his mind a small spark ignited inside Izuku's being. A spark that hasn't been lit for man many years. And now that it was sparked it was kindled by Izuku desire to live. It long for more life, just to live just like Izuku! And it burst into a mighty flame that burned hot in Izuku's soul and out through his body!
On the outside world tiny flames ignited and appeared on Izuku's hair tips and shoulders drawing the slime things attention long enough for him to wonder what was going on? It was also more than enough time for the figure looming under the sewer chasing the slime thing. Blue eyes glittered in the dark as huge figure burst from the hole with a booming voice that called out, "THEIR YOU ARE VILLAIN SCUM I FINALLY CAUGHT YOU!"
The slim thing started to profusely sweat and quickly turned around only to let out a scream of pure fright as he screamed in panic, "SHIT! How'd you find me so fast!"
The huge figure related back his arm and cried out in his booming voice, "DETROIT SMASH!"
Suddenly a huge and powerful air current swept through the whole tunnel, it was so powerful that the slime thing was blow apart into jelly and the three teens along with it! In addition it knocked Izuku out the flames on Izuku's body, out of the slim things grip, and knocked out cold in the process! Izuku felt his whole world turn black.
After a while Izuku felt someone gently yet rapidly slapping his face to get him to wake up while saying something he couldn't hear. He cracked his eyes opened and saw a huge figure looming over him. When his eyes adjusted to the light and his ears started working again he heard the figure say, "AH, THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE ALRIGHT. THOUGHT I LOST YOU THERE FOR A BRIEF MOMENT."
Izuku's eyes struggled to adjust and when they did he finally gazed upon the face of his savior, and when he did his body forze in a stiff position and his jaw dropped in awe! Just as Izuku was having a freak out Hikari and Ko finally came to, with Ko just realizing what was going on through his blurred vision and barely audible hearing. Ko sat up and got the duos attention with a very loud and sarcastic 'AHEM!'
"For your information were okay too ya know.", he exclaimed with deep sarcasm. "Nice of you to check up on us Mr.-", but Ko never finish that sentence as he stopped himself seeing who it actually was that saved them! Hikari finally came to and when he saw the person as well he immediately started to scream! "All Might!", Izuku and Ko both exclaimed in unison!
Hikari continued to scream at the sight of their collective idol, however his expression slowly changed from that of shock to pure euphoria! He immediately zoomed over to the number one hero from his sitting position zooming around the huge blond man talking at the speed of sound! All Might was a little overwhelmed by how fast he was speaking and couldn't make heads or tails of he was even speaking remote Japanese at this point.
Ko managed to assess the situation by slowly walking up to the group then helping Izuk to his feet and stopping Hikari by booping him on the nose. Hikari stopped mid motion like a really fast video set on pause, All Might was visibly surprised, impressed, and disturbed at the same time by this and asked, "That actually works?"
Ko waved it off while not taking his eyes off the man as he said, "Yeah yeah, but that's not important. You're here! Actually here in front of us! And you saved us! Thank you,"
"Y-Yes! T-Thank you v-very very much f-f-for saving us!", Izuku stuttered out his thanks with a bow!
Hikari was still standing their but staring at All Might with stars in his eyes and making a sound like unoiled car breaks!
Suddenly Izuku remembered that this could be his one and only chance to get an autograph from All Might in the flesh! Izuku quickly looked for his notebook and found his backpack to the side. He dashed over to it and ripped out! Ko and Hikari saw this and also fumbled around in their bags for any piece of paper or a notebook, in a moment they both found a notebook and we're almost ready to ask All Might sign when the tall man suddenly told them, "While you three were out I figured you'd want an autograph from me so I took the liberty of writing it down in those note books of yours!"
The boys paused for a moment then flipped to the last page and saw All Mights huge signature written in English on two whole pages! Ko tried to convey a thank to All Might, however the usually calm and collectively scaractic teen was now tripping over his words they to make anything other then noises! Hikair was not taking this any more elegantly, in fact he was worse, he was actually hyperventilating rapidly! Izuku was by far the most collective one, sure he let out a loud fanboy scream at the sight of the autograph, but he composed himself and began to bow rapidly!
"Thank you so very very very much Mr. All Might sir! I'll treasure this forever! This will be my families more treasured heirloom!", Izuku thanked and praised the man while bowing!
All Might raised his head and chest high in the air as he laughed wholeheartedly, "HAHAHAHA! YOU'RE VERY WELCOME YOUNG MAN!"
Suddenly something dawned on Ko as he snapped out of his stuttering mess and in a serious tone asked All Might, "Where's the slime thing?"
All Might put their minds at ease as he held up a bottle of soda like he was standing as a spokesperson to commercialize it with the slim thing and its eye floating in the bottle, how he managed to get its huge eyes in said bottle is beyond me. Izuku looked on in awe while Hikari was the only softly said he was going to buy that soda, Ko on the other hand simply walked up to All Might calmly with his hand out open asking to see the bottle. All Might made an inquisitive expression but place the bottle in the teen hands.
Ko then grabbed the bottle with both hand and began to violently shake it while yelling, "You like that, huh!? Huh! This is what you get! This is what you get for trying to kill my friend you bastard!"
All Might tried to deexclouate the situation by trying to calm down the furios teen, however it was Hikari who stopped him when he snatched the bottle from his hand! He waved his finger disapprovingly at his friend while saying, "For shame Ko-go, you should know better!", All Might sighed in relief seeing the boys trying to talk sense into one another, however that notition was soon destroyed as Hikari followed up with, "You have to shake it like this!", and began to violently shake the bottle using his super speed!
"Ya like that!? I hope so because their much more where that came from!", Hikari yelled with a sadistic grin on his face as he put on even more speed!
All Might quickly snatched the bottle from his hands while stating nervously, "I think that's enough of that! First he has to face trial before the punishment."
"Awwwwwwww!", Hikari complained!, "But that's no fun.", this made All Might sweat drop.
"WELL I'M GLAD YOU THREE ARE ALIGHT. NOW IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME I HAVE TO TAKE THIS…...SENTIENT SMOOTHIE TO THE AUTHORITIES.", All Might explained while trying to describe the current state of the slime thing.
Just then Izuku remembered one other thing he wanted to ask All Might and exclaimed, "Wait All Might before you go!"
However All Might had already squatted down readying himself to do one of his famous super jumps. Just before he bounced off he said over his shoulder, "THANKS FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!", and launched off the ground and into the sky in a cloud of dust and pressure!
When the dust cleared the teens were left their in awe of what just happened to them! Ko cough from the dust cloud and said in amazement, "Wow! That was incredible! He's even more mighty in person. This really was a once in a lifetime opportunity.", Hikari was silent but was biting his lower lip while shaking his hands and squealing in happiness! "Right Izuku.", Ko asked Izuku but got no response.
"Izuku?", Ko questioned as he looked to where his friend is standing or rather was standing, as he soon saw that Izuku was gone!
Ko gagged and paled at seeing his adorkable friend suddenly vanish into thin air! Without looking away from the spot he stuttered out a question to Hikari, "H-Hey H-H-Hikari-s-san, y-you don't think t-that Izuku-?", though Ko never got to finish as he got his answer from Hikair who suddenly screamed while pointing in the direction of where All Might bounced off! "I was afraid you'd say that.", Ko paled in panic.
Hikari then made a pose like a cartoon character ready to zoom off screen and exclaimed, "Don't worry Izuku Imma comin!"
As quick as he could Ko raised up his hand to stop the speed teen and shouted, "No wait don't forgot about-!", but it was to late as Hikari suddenly zoomed off leaving a trail of dust and Ko to finish his sentence saying, "Me."
Ko then cracked his knuckles and neck, did a few stretches and said to no one, "Alright lady luck, take the wheel."
Ko then ran to the top of a pile of garbage jumped off and bounced on a trampoline, he got a big enough bounce where he launched into the air and grabbed a rope hanging off a passing helicopter that was going in the same direction All Might bounced off to.
Meanwhile with All Might; as the number one hero was soaring through the air he felt a great weight on his left leg. He looked down and saw the wind pressured face of Izuku clinging to him for dear life! All Might panicked for a moment as the teen shouted as best he could with the current state of his face, "Please wait I have so many things I want to ask you!"
All Might then tried to shake him off while saying, "I ADORE ALL MY DEVOTED FANS BUT NOT TO THIS EXTENT, THIS IS MUCH TOO FAR EVEN FOR ME."
Izuku was starting to lose his grip from All Mights flailing and he shouted at the blond hero, "Wait if I fall from here I'll die!"
"OH, GOOD POINT.", All MIght said quickly realizing the situation and making an emergency landing on a roof!
Once they landed Izuku fell to the ground painting in fear with adrenaline coursing through his body. Once he gained back his breath he looked up to the hero who had a relieved expression on his smile. "WELL THAT WAS ANOTHER CLOSE CALL. THIS HAS BEEN FUN AND ALL YOUNG MAN, BUT I REALLY MUST BE OFF. YOU KNOW, HERO WORK AND SUCH."
Just before he left Izuku cried out wait, "Wait I know you're busy, before you go please let me just ask you one question!"
All Might inwardly sighed and replied, "ALRIGHT MY BOY, ASK AWAY.", though just as he said those words a very familiar sensation came upon All Might.
He began to inwardly freak out as blood trickled out the sides of his mouth and small streams of steam poured from his body! 'NO NO NO! NOT NOW! NOT HERE!', All Might freaked out as steam enveloped his body!
Meanwhile Izuku was blissfully unaware of what was happening in front of him as he was rambling on about his life dreams and desires all while looking at the ground with his eyes closed. When he was done he finally opened his eyes brimming with happiness and confidence at his idol and exclaimed with passion, "That's why I want to be a hero who smiles through it all and give hope to all he meets, just like you!"
Then Izuku's excitement quickly changed into fear and shock at who was standing front of him! Instead of the almighty All Might standing in front of him in all his mightiness, there was a very sickly looking man with messy blond hair, angular feature, sunken blue eyes, andclothing that looked 10 sizes too big for him to wear, enveloped in some kind of weird hot smoke. Izuku was barely able to to register what was going on and he was completely freaking out!
"W-Where's All Might? Where'd he go?", Izuku asked to no one as he looked around for his hero. He then turned his attention back to the skeletal man and asked, "You-You arent All Might?"
The skeletal man sighed a breath and replied, "Yes, for I am-", however he didn't get a chance to finish that thought as blood started to put out of his mouth and choke him in the process.
Izuku screamed at seeing blood pool from this guys mouth and shouted, "NO WAY! Liar, you-you can't be All Might, you're a fake, an imposter, a shapeshifter!"
The skeletal man wiped his face and replied back calmly, "No I really am All Might, and I'll prove it to you.", suddenly the man flexed his arms and in a flash All Might appeared then immediately turned right back into the skeletal man!
Izuku was standing there absolutely stunned, he feel to his knees as he finally accepted this sawing in amazement, "You-You are All Might. But how?"
All Might wiped some more blood from his face and walking over to the stunned teen said, "I'll tell you, but first you need to see this to understand fully.", All Might walked over to the teen slightly lifting his shirt.
However just before he could show him what was under his shirt Hikaru's voice crashed against their ears, "IZUKU!", he screamed! "I'M COMING!", Hikaris green flash was seen zooming across the street and then up the building where he landed perfectly from a large jump! "I AM HERE!", he shouted All Mights catch phrase with full gusto!
He then zoomed over to Izuku where he picked him off the ground and hugged him tightly while saying, "Oh Izuku I was so worried about you, I thought you were a goner! Don't you ever do that again you hear me! And what are you looking at?", Hikari asked Izuku whose eyes still hadn't left All Might.
Hiari then turned in the direction of Izukus gaze and saw skeltal All Might standing their, and not knowing that it really was All Might, upon seeing him Hikari immediately freaked out with a scream! "WHO THE HELL IS THAT!? WHY THE HELL IS HE HERE?! AND WHERE THE HELL IS ALL MIGHT!"
Suddenly Hikari started to paint vage picture of what was going on and went through everything he was seeing right now; Izuku on his knees with a shock and fearful expression, an unsightly man appearing to remove his clothing. Then it hit Hikari and his expression changed to a mixture of shock, fear, and anger! He then grabbed Izuku by the shoulders and looking him straight in the eyes wit a serious expression asked him in firm panic, "Izuku did this man touch you!?"
At hearing this question, Izuku's brain immediately did a skip leaving him with a silent response. Hikari gasped and exclaimed, "Oh My God, he did touch you!"
He then accusingly pointed his finger at All Might and screamed, "You touched Izuku didn't you! You creatiness, predatorily pervert! How dare you touch this innocent child!"
All Might held up his hands in defense and stammered back, "No no no, you got it all wrong! I know how this may look, but you're just missing some crucial contents!"
Suddenly a helicopter flew over head and Ko jumped off from the rope he was hanging onto right on top of a pile of cardboard boxes to cushion his fall. "Thanks for the ride fellas!", Ko called out to the pilots who each gave him a thumbs up. When they flew off Ko brushed himself off and turning to his friends said, "What's up bitches, I'm here. Hey what with the weird faces?", he asked his friends while turning in their gaze only to see All Might and having a similar reaction as Hikari!
"AND WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?", he cowers away from the sight of All Might in fear!
Hikari pick him up to speed simply explaining, "He touched Izuku!"
Ko did a double take before his brain kicked in and his expression changed from fear to anger while shouting, "YOU TOUCHED IZUKU!"
"No no no, I didn't! Please just let me explain!", All Might tried to reason with the teens yet to no avail.
Ko cracked his knuckles and got into a fighting stance as he stated, "So ya like touching children do ya? Well why don't we just touch you! With our FISTS!"
"And our FEET!", Hikari added while kicking his large muscular legs in the air!
"Please have mercy!", All Might begged while covering his face!
Just before they could beat down on All Might Izuku suddenly scream very very loud!, "STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!"
Ko and Hikari looked to their green haired friend with confused expression on their faces. Izuku was now breathing heavily from the stress he was feeling, and when he finally caught his breath he shouts firmly, "HE'S NOT A STRANGER AND HE DIDN'T TOUCH ME! HE'S ALL MIGHT!"
Ko and Haikari could only stand their starting at their friend for a solid 30 seconds trying to make sense of what he just said. Hikari was the first one to react to this and immediately burst into a fit of uncontrollable laughter as if it were the funniest thing he had heard! And to be honest it really was when you thought about it.
He then immediately stopped laughing and garbed Izuku by his shoulders, he looked him in the eyes and in a very serious tone stated, "Izuku, I know you're going through a very traumatized delsisuion from being touch by this unsightly abomination of humanity, but this is no time to be having a sciniferenic identity crisis."
"Hikari is right Izuku this isn't All Might; All Might is all big, and tough, and muscular, and manly, and smooth, and everything this guy isn't.", Ko agreed.
Izuku grabbed him back and in a serious tone exclaimed, "No I'm serious, this really is All Might and he was just going to show me why and how he looks like this before you came! Show him All Might!", Izuku exclaimed to he hero!
All Might then repeated what he did for Izuku and turned back and forth from his skeletal form to his muscular hero form then right back. This completely shocked both teens and reduced them to stuttering incoherent messes like Izuku was momenents prior. Izuku fell back to his knees from the stress while Ko fell on his butt in surprise, and Hikari fell right on his face in a painful flop! All Might wiped the blood from his mouth again and walked over to the stunned teens on the ground.
"All Might….I can't believe it. How did this happen to you?", Ko asked in a soft voice.
"That's what I was trying to explain to your friend here until you both came here thinking I was a pedophile.", All Might replied.
He then came down on one knee and lifted up his shirt. What the teens saw made them gasp and cringe before the awful sight! Except for Hikari who lifted his brusted face from the ground looking at All Mights body saying with drool rolling down his face, "Hi abbs.", This earned him a slap on the head from Ko.
Under All Mights shirt was an enormous, yet mostly healed, wound that encompassed most of the left side of his abdomen! It was red, veiny like it couldn't heal properly, and seems to make that one side of his body cave in a bit!
"A few years ago I got into a fight with an arch Villain of mine, the fight took a toll on my body leaving me with a collapsed lung, and most of my digestive system removed. As a by product I can only stay in my hero form for about three hours of the day.", he explained.
"That explains some things about you recently. But who could have done this to you?", Ko asked, then turned to Izuku and asked. "Didn't we see something like this on the internet Izuku. Something about All Might getting into a fight some villain called the venomous synth or something?"
"Your right Ko-san, but he was called the Toxic Chainsaw if I remember correctly.", Izuku confirmed.
"Hmm, I see you boys have doe you're rescher. Well you aren't technically wrong, however that was only a cover up story made for the media. No the real villain who did this was a true super villain called ALL FOR ONE.", he explained with a sense of ominous.
"All for One!", Izuku repeated the name.
"All for One?", Ko questioned the name.
"Is he one of the three musketeers?", Hikari asked?
"Yes, yes, and no.", All Might answered in order.
This was a lot for Izuku to take in all at once; All Might could transform, and his other form is nothing like him, he was practically dying, and on top of all that has an arch villain that nearly killed him the last time they meet! This was a lot for one sitting, way too much for one sitting!
"Welp you heard it straight from the horse's mouth kid. Anyway I gotta go now, I hope you three can keep my secret.", All Might stated awkwardly while rubbing his neck while turning to leave.
"NO WAIT!", Izuku shouts at All Might! All Might turned around and gives an inquisitive look at Izuku. Izuku takes a deep breath and says, "Before you go, please just answer one question I have."
All Might sighed and nodded in response. Izuku collected his thoughts and explained, "Every since I was little I always had a dream to become a hero, then I was diagnosed as quirkless at age 4. After that everyone I meet, well almost everyone, told me time and time again that I couldn't become a hero. Yet, no matter what people have done or said to me over the years I still held out always seeing you with a smile on your face saving people. So what I'm trying to say is….is it possible to be a hero even without a quirk?"
Hikari immediately grabbed Kos shoulders and ran to the farther corner of the roof as if to watch it from a far. "What the heck?!", Ko exclaimed outraged until Hikari slapped his hand over his mouth and silently exclaimed, "Keep quiet! This is it, this is the thing we needed! The one thing in the whole world that can give Izuku the confidence boost he needs to keep pushing for his dream!"
Kos eyes immediately widened at this knowledge and pulling Hikaris hand off said in a hushed voice, "You're right, we can't interfere with this. This is Izuku's time, if this doesn't restock the fire then nothing will!"
All Might signed at the sight of a determined Izuku with hop flickering in his eyes. "Listen kid, I'm glad I was able to be a huge inspiration to you you're whole life and you have a great dream and all.", the light from Izuku's eyes immediately dimmed. "It's great that you want to be a hero, but without a quirk you're more of a liability then a help. You could always go into being a firefighter or a police officer, they maybe under heros though they still do good for society. It not a bad thing to dream big, however you have to think realistically.", Izuku's expression immediately changed from determination to nothing. No emotion or feeling just stiff expression that shown a broken spirit.
'WHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!', Ko and Hikari mentally screamed in their heads!
"So long kid.", All Might said over his shoulder as he walked to the edge of the roof to transform and bounce away.
Though before he could make it to the edge Ko shot his lucky coin at All Might, the coin rolled along the ground and right under All Mights foot as he was taking a step. When he did step on the coin All Mights ankle rolled causing him to spit out blood and cried out in pain! Hikari activated his electric speed boost, with electric green lightning and fully green eyes enveloping him, he dashed over to All Might and in a nanosecond revved up a super kick a that when ready he shouted at the top of his lung, "ULTRA! SPEED! AXE KICK!"
Hikair hit All Mights back with such an intense force that it propelled the Hero right off the roof and into the distance where he disappeared from sight! Hikari stood their with his leg still extended breathing heavily after starting and stopping that move so suddenly, a grim and furious scowl pinned to his face. Ko stood there with hand raised outward clutching his luck coin tight in his grip, so tight his hand started to bleed from the coins jagged edges, a grim and furious scowl pinned to his face as well. They were so angry, so furious with how All Might spoke to Izuku that for the first time in a long time they allowed their emotions to get the better of them and act on them!
The two teens stood like that for a while, angry and breathless. When they calmed down enough they very quickly realized what they did, who they did it to, and in front of who! The two of them slowly dropped their raised limbs and slowly cocked their heads towards Izuku, who was now supporting a shocked expression! Izuku was unmoving in both body, expression, and breath! Hikari and Ko began to get worried when he showed no signs of life or anything!
Before any of them could approach Izuku he finally let out a noise that told them he was still alive, and it sounded a little something like this, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"
Hikari and Ko were so throwback by Izuku's sudden outburst of screaming that the two of them were immediately knocked to their butts Hikari was the first to get back to his feet and zoomed over to Izuku gripping his shoulders and shaking him back to reality!
"Izuku snap out of it!", he shouted!
Ko immediately ripped Hikari from Izuku while shouting, "You idiot, don't shake him around when he's panicking!"
Izuku continue to scream until he finally turned to his friends and yelled, "What did you do!?"
Hikari and Ko immediately shut up and shrunk back at their friends outburst!
Hikari again the the first one to speak as he exclaimed, "Now Izuku just calm down! To be fair we both had a hand in this!"
Ko looked at Hikari like he just said something stupid, again, and shot back, "What this 'we' stuff?! I didn't kick him off a roof!"
"You still tripped him with you're coin!", Hikari shot back!
"You guys just kicked the number one hero off a roof!", Izuku shouted!
"Calm down Izuku this is All Might we're talking about here. I'm sure he gets kicked like that every other day, besides that I'm sure he landed safely like he always does.", Ko tried to reassure him nervously.
"In or out of his hero form?", Izuku asked back? This time Kos slice tougher failed him and he was at a loss for words.
Hikari quickly stepped in saying, "And besides you have to admit he totally deserved it. I mean who does he think he is telling someone they can't follow their dream?!"
"The number one hero.", Izuku replied in a early audible tone.
This cause Hikari to slurp his own words and profusely sweat.
"If it comes straight from him then who's to say that I should keep continuing on this path.", he said in a low and broken voice.
Izuku began to walk away towards the roof door as Hikari and Ko tried to reach out to him to make him feel better. They both grabbed their friend's shoulder and expected him to turn and face them, but he didn't instead he just stood their unmoving and silent waiting for them to speak or he was so dazed he didn't realize they were their. The two teen looked at each other nervously trying to think of something to say to their friend! Though the words fail them each and every time they opened their mouths, so they just stood there in silences trying to mouth out even a single phrase.
Eventually Izuku simple walked out from their combined grasp without any resistance on the other side. The two teens watch in silence as their friend with such a grave and grimly broken spirit walked away from them. That was their friend, their inspiration, their hope! Everything that Izuku had loved and longed to desire had rubbed off onto them and they desired the same thing as well! But now seeing him like this broke the light within the two teens spirits as it did Izuku's. The two of them slumped their heads down in defeat and walked with a solemn pace next to Izuku, almost as a ghost among the living.
Meanwhile with All Might
In a pile of trash in a back alley way a huge figure suddenly bruts worth from the filth! It was All Might covered in trash, muck, and blood from spitting it up. He pulled himself from the pile and brushed himself off best as he could.
Now I bet you're wondering how All Might survived after rolling his ankle on a coin and getting super kicked off an 8 story building into the horizon. Well as he was sailing through the air, while spitting blood like a blonde decrepit rocket, he managed to change into his hero foarm last minute and direct himself to fall or really crash into a pile of trash. Not the best place to land, but anything is better than concrete!
After making sure he was alright he tried to figure out what exactly happen to him? First he was talking to the scrawny yet polite green haired kid and his two weird friends, next he was walking away and then…...oh yeah, the kids weird friends kicked him off the roof. And he was pretty sure it was the really tall electric green one with really big thighs. Though why did they do that, sure they were obviously protective of him but why? Just before they were practically having a fangasm overing seeing the number one hero in Japan.
Oh yeah, All Might remember what might have caused them to do that. He told the quirkless green haired boy he couldn't be a hero. Couldn't be a hero. Couldn't be a hero. Couldn't be a hero.
Damit! All Might hit himself as those words echoed in his head! What in the world was he even thinking?! Telling that kid he's practically useless and even cushing his dreams! Who was he kidding, he remembered that kids expression after he finished that sentence, he DID crush his dreams! He's supposed to be the number one hero for god sake! Not a...
Then it dawned on All Might, he panicked and began to search his body for the item in question he was looking for! When he couldnt find it he began to panic, the soda bottle holding the slime thing was gone!
Back with the Boys
The three teens were now somely walking down the street not aware of where they were going or for how long. Their heads hung low and the expression grim or void of anything. Occasionally one of them would let out the occasional sigh of sadness, though that was it as not even a peep escaped from any of them. They continued to walk in a haze of unawareness for what seemed like hour to moments.
Eventually something shook the teens out of their trance when they heard the sound of explosions coming not to far off in the distance. Izuku was the first to poke his head up from the disturbance and looked around.
"Hey when did I get here?", he stated not noticing his friends trailing him.
He looked over the buildings and saw smoke with the odd exposition here and there. From what Izuku could gather their was some kind of Villain attack going on. Seeing that he had nothing better to do and he was already here he may as well watch other hero's be well….hero's. Maybe he could see a new quirk and write it down…..oh wait he can't. Izuku sighed and thought that watching from the sidelines was just as good.
Ko and Hikari saw their friend perk up slightly and mozzy onto the all the commotion so they followed him to see what all the racket was about! When they got their, like always, their were tons of people trying to get a peak of the action. Heroes and police were on the scene trying to keep the situation and crowds under control.
Izuku turned to one of the other bystanders and asked, "What's going on?"
"Some kid got caught by a villain and now the hero's are trying to free him while he's sending off his quirk all over the place. It's a real mess.", the man replied.
The teens managed to get into a spot where they could watch the action and saw several heros on the screen; Kamui Woods, Death Arms, Back Draft, and Mt. Lady. All of them were either trying to evacuate civilians, put out fires, and trying to subdue the villain. When they actually looked at the Villain it turned out to be the slime thing from before! And the person he caught was actually….BAKUGOU! The teens looked on in shock of seeing the explosive teen being enveloped by the slime thing while sending off huge blasts all over the place; destroying property and preventing the hero's from getting to close. The villain seems to be using Bakugou as some sort of living gun and shield.
Izuku's mouth dropped straight open and his eyes widened at the sight of his not-so-friend captured by a villain and struggling for his life! Even if he was farther away he could tell Bakugou was panicking and crying as he struggled to fight for his life calling out in a muted voice for help while sending his quirk all over the place! He realized at this moment that thi was his fault, if he hadn't grabbed onto All Mights leg then the bottle holding it wouldn't have slipped out and the slime thing wouldn't have gotten Bakugou!
"Kachan.", Izuku said in a glazed voice.
"Katsuki!", Hikari stated in surprise!
"Shit Head?", Ko said in more of a question. A smile then formed on his face as he let out a few soft giggles. "I can't believe it. I mean I Really can't believe it!", Ko exclaimed! And in truth it really does take a whole lot to make Ko impressed with anything. "Him, Katsuki Bakugou, the biggest dick was to ever poison the earth with his presents has finally gotten what he's wanted in the best way possible! To blow shit up and fight villains to gain fame and fortune, and now here he is in the perfect opportunity to do just that. Now in this real situation he is crying like a bitch, sparticousslly let his quirk go off, all while being held hostage by a real villain! Ha! Serves him right for all the rotten things he's done, right Izuku. Izuku?", Ko turned his gaze towards where is friend should be standing as he waiting for a response, however he wasn't!
Ko wiped his head around to looking for his friend then caught him pushing through the crowd to the front!
"IZUKU!", Ko shouted!
Izuku didn't stop and he only continue to push forward until he broke through the crowd and ran right into the firing line with officers and heros alike calling out to hi to stop! But he didn't, he couldn't hear them now that his mind was completely set on saving Bakugou!
Hair then took a funny stance before he ran to catch up with Izuku until Ko stope him exclaiming, "Were not really gonna do this are we?!"
"Its Izuku, and what he does we have to do by extent!", Hikari quickly replied as he zoomed through the crowds!
"OH I hate that unnamed rule about our friendship!", Ko complained as he ran through the crowds to catch up!
"KACHAN!", Izuku cries as he runs up to his friend and the villain!
Bakugou frees his mouth just long enough to say in a confused and slightly angry voice, "Deku?"
"Well if it ain't my previous skin suit. I already have this one, but what the heck two for one deal am I right!", The slime thing stated as he tried to grab Izuku.
Suddenly a loud whistle stopped him in place then a loud voice cried out, "Hey Fucker!". This got the slimes attention and he turned around only to see Hikari with his back turned and furiously twerking his butt insultingly while saying, "Remember me?"
The slime things eyes narrowed and it mouth twisted in a frown as it spat, "Yeah I remember you! You and the golden one shook me up while I was in that bottle!"
"If anything I'd say it actually did you some good. All that shaking appears to have solidified you. Which means this is payback time.", Hikari stated while cracking his knuckles.
The slime thing tried to strike at Hikari yet he was already gone and standing in a new spot! "What the!?", the slime thing questioned.
"Too slow!", Hikari vexed.
The slime thing growled in frustration and tried to strike him again yet he missed with Hikaris speed! This continued for a while as the slime tried to smash Hikari and he would simply zoom out of the way while vexing him saying things like, "Missed me! Missed me again! Still too slow! Oh you almost got me! Come on step it up! You're too slow!", and more.
Izuku took the opportunity to jump on the slime thing and try to dig Bakugou out with his bear hands. This got the slime things attention again as he exclaimed, "Hey what do you think you're doing?!"
The slime thing tried to grab him but Izuku quickly ripped his backpack off and threw it right in the slime things eye!
The slime thing related back from the pain and cured out a shrill scream! This made him loosen his grip on Bakugou and gave Izuku more lead way to dig him out!
As he was digging Bakugou, whose mouth was free, shouted, "What the hell are you doing Deku?!"
Izuku couldn't really think of anything since his mind was in overdrive trying to rescue him, though he didn't managed to blurt out something with awkwardly lack luster to it, "You looked like you needed help!"
Izuku reaches into the slim and with all his scrawny might pulled Bakugou free! The slime thing was still rubbing its eye from the pain and complained, "OWWWW! My eye, my eye!"
When it managed to get his vision back from the blinding tears he immediately noticed his skin sacks breaking free! He went to envelop them both, but Hikari came right in the nick of time and sent a flurry of punches right into the slimes other eye! The slime related back again and in a shrill scream yelled, "MY EYE! MY OTHER EYE!"
Hikari then zoomed over to the freed teens, grabbed them by their belts, and covered some distance between them. Ko was on standby waiting for the right chance to strike and seal the deal, and when it did he flicked his coin off his thumb with prediction aim. It flew through the air and up to a building with a loose supporting beam. The coin hit the beam and with a mighty creak it broke free and landed right on top of the slime thing causing it to cry out even louder! When the beam fell it landed right between the boys the the main part of the slime which is where the actual brain was.
Hikari zoomed over to Ko, who had his coin back, and placed the two other teens at his feet. All four of them were breathless from the fear and stress, the audience was silent from the shock and suspense. Then the whole audience broke out into a huge chear! The boys were still breathing heavily while the crowd cheered, though that didn't stop Bakugou from barking his two cents.
"What the fuck was that for!? I didn't need you're dam help, I had him right we're I wanted him!", he yelled at the other three teens, mostly at Izuku.
Izuku studdard back trying to say something in response, Hikari rolled his eyes, and Ko was the only one to speak. "Yeah sure you did. Getting captured while exploding everything at random while crying like a little bitch totally meant you had him."
"The hell you say Golden Pants!", Bakugou yelled at him!
Ko rolled his eyes in response.
Suddenly the metal beam suddenly sank into the slime with its very angry face forming over it! "You little brats! Ill smother you all!", it yelled as it turned into a tidal wave of slime!
"AH!", Izuku screamed!
"Fuck!", Bakugou shouts!
"Shit!", Hikari crusses!
"Oh I forgot you're a liquid.", Ko stated in surprize.
Then the slime tidal wave covers the boys! A few seconds latter the boys head pop up with their mouths being covered by the slime thing as it tried to suffocate them! Bakugou's hands were enveloped inside the smile so he couldn't produce exploitation! Izuku was struggling and wiggling around as much as he could to free himself! Hikari was only a little bit better, the slime didn't take in account for his height and only had him enveloped up to his shoulders. Hikari too and deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to vibrate. He vibrates faster and faster until his whole body looked blurry, the vibatestion also caused the slime around him to super heat up and began to sizzle and bubble.
"YOUCH! Stop that, it hurts!", the slime thing cried out!
Hikari kept vibrating and burning the slime around him, he then started to move around the slime and over to the two other teens. He burned the slime around them and allowing them to breathe again. He quickly garbed them bothe by their shirt collars and began to work his way out of the slime.
Meanwhile Ko, who managed to escape, was on the outlines trying to dig away at the slime to free his friends! When suddenly he saw a very familiar head of electric green hair slowly move towards him, he quickly plunged his arms into the slime and grabbed hold of Hikaris shirt! With all his might he began to pull his friends free, but the slime wasn't about to give up yet! It tired to envelope the three teen again despite the amount of pain it was in from its own body being boiled!
"I! WON'T! LET! YOU! LIVE!", it roared at the top of its non-existence lungs!
Izuku and Bakugou struggled as hard as they could, Hikari vibrated and pulled as hard as he could, Ko pulled with all his might! Just when they thought they were going nowhere they felt something help pull the boys free! The four teens were pulled free roughly and fell to the pavement, they looked up only to see a very familiar smile and blond hair on top of a bodybuilders body!
"All Might?", Izuku questioned the tall hero?
"I'm sorry young man, I really should start applying what I preach.", said the hero with a serious look on his smiling face! All Might then revved his arm back and cried, "MISSOURI!"
The slime thing was paralyzed with fear as he cried out, "NO NOT AGAIN!"
"SMASH!", All Might cired and punched the slime thing dead on!
What happened next was so fast and so amazing that if you blinked you'd miss it! The slime thing immediately splattered all over the place like a bucket of paint, along with every fire being put out by the wind pressure, even the weather completely changed as it went from cloudy to completely clear in a matter of seconds! Even the slime left on the boys blew away along with their hair in crazy directions just from being so close!
Bakugou was silent. Hikari was silent. The not easily impressed Ko and easily impressed Izuku could only say in a low voice, "wow."
The crowd went wild and All Might gave his signature smile to the before dashing off! The officers and heros were on the screen cleaning up the mess along with the foure teens. Once they four of them came to their senses, Bakugou did what he normally does and stormed off away from the other three teens in a huff! Hikari saw Izuku's things scattered across the ground and getting to his feet he zoomed over and regained the contents of his bag then dropped it in his lap.
When Izuku regained his sense and got to his feet he was immediately approached by Kamui Woods. Izuku was very nervous as the man had a very displeased look on his face. Izuku immediately pushed the thought of asking him for an autograph. Good thing too since he immediately began to chew Izuku out for his dangerous, reckless, and stupid behavior! Making the nervous green haired teen shrink away from the man. Ko was standing not too far getting the same treatment by another hero, though he was ignoring him as he slapped his hand over his mouth by force, watching Izuku get chewed out for doing the right thing! While glaring dangerously at Kamui Wood making the hero next to him very very nervous!
However there was one who would not stand for how Izuku was being talked to, especially by someone whose job it was to help people and wasn't doing said job while the caterterphe was happening! Kamui received a grim garb on his shoulders by said person, however the hero told the person to leave and pushed his hand away. Unfortunately this lead to Kamui Woods hand getting rough crushed by the persons bigger hand. Kamui Woods shuddered at the pain of his crushing hand and immediately turned around to see who was doing this disrespect to him.
Though instead of seeing a person he saw a person's chest, a male one to be exact, in a school uniform. He started to sweat knowing if the first thing he saw was a person's chest then they were no doubt very big! His eyes slowly climbed up to see the persons face and saw the angry scowl of Hikari looking down at Kamui Woods like a displeased parent. For Kamui Woods mere 5' 6'' stature he was basically dwarfed by all of Hikari's giant 6' 4'' stature!
Normally he wouldn't be so freigentend by anyone so large as he worked with larger people all the time, but seeing this person was a student made a cold chill run up his spine! Kamui Woods gulped silently and composed himself before speaking. He told Hikari to fist let go of him and to say out of this as this was heros work and he was also a comparator in this.
Hikari increased his grip on Kamuis hand and replied, "Oh really? I didn't know that doing nothing when things get sticky was part of a hero's job?"
Kamui Woods eyes widened at his statement and was in utter silence of it! He was so stunned at first he don't know how to respond, if his face was covered by his mask Hikari would've seen Kamui Woods gaping mouth! The hero then quickly composed himself and firmly stated back as an authoritative figure, "How dare you take that tone with me young man! Do you know who I am and what I do! I'm a professional and your friend has interfered in professional work that nearly costed his life along with yours and the victims."
"Oh please, the 'victim' deserved that and more.", Hikari said out of the side of his mouth.
"What?", Kamui questioned.
"I said, and what were you doing mr. professional?", Hikari asked sarcastically? Kamui went to reply but Hikari cut him off immediately saying, "That's right you weren't doing anything. You, big meaty claws, fire hose dick, and Mt. Titties were all sitting on the side lines with your thumbs up you're asses!", he yelled at the hero's face! "Izuku was the only one to step up to the plate, doing your job, while you all stood back for such and such reason!"
Kamui really couldn't believe that of all the things that have happened in his life he would never believe that he would scolded by a student, for his own job performance! He shook himself out of his trance and trying to put this back into his favor as the pro he said, "You are a student, you don't know anything about hero work or what we have to do! So don't you dare think for even a moment that you know what it's like to put your life on the line every single day, and sometimes without even a civil thank you!"
Hikairs expression turned even more grim as he loomed over the hero who was now starting to sweat bullets! Hikaris expression then turned into a curl looking smile which made Kamui go on edge! He step close to the hero, causing him to tense up, and leaned his face right on the tip of Kamiu Woods mask.
In a voice that sounded like it came from the gullet of a hole he stated, "You know what? You're absolutely right, sir. And I'm sorry for my behavior.", Kamui was getting some serious mixed signals. "So let me show my appreciation for all your hard work and give you proper….", Hikari trailed off as his eyes turned green and eclectic green lightning zipped all over his body. Kamui was so stunned to see what happened to the kid he didn't even notice when he roughly grabbed the calor of his outfit and lifted up on his tiptoes till it was too late! "Compensation.", Hikari finished his sentence with his wicked grin still adorning his face!
Kamui knew he was in trouble now, though it was too late to call for help or fight back, he suddenly felt a great force push against his back that made him feel like he was squeezed through a pipe at high velocity! It was so powerful that it nearly knocked the air out of Kamui Woods lungs and pass out! The feeling of the force pushing had against his back suddenly stopped just as quick as it came on and he let himself fall to the ground! Kamui open his eyes with a great feeling of nausea and dizziness hit him like a truck, he lifted himself into a sitting position only to see Hikari looming over him with green electricity coursing all over his body.
"Hope you enjoy your vacation, hero.", Hikari spat the last part before completely disappearing from sight in a flash of light and dust!
Kamui Woods finally looked around himself only to quickly realize he was no longer in Japan. The buildings were different, the streets were different, the people were different, and the signs were written in a completely different language. However, Kamui Woods was in luck since one of the signs was written in Japanese under the main language. It read 'Welcome to Beijing.'
Wait a minute, Kamui question?! Beijing! In China! On the other side of the world!
Kamui Woods eyes began to twitch violently before he let out a deep gutter scream of angst that sailed across the ocean!
Meanwhile Back at Japan
Izuku was standing in shock of what he just saw; first the pro hero Kamui Woods was going to chew him out, then Hikari stepped in intimated the pro and chewed him out, then Kamui tried to turn it around until Hikari graves the hero activating his speed pulse and vanishing with the pro!
Ko was standing on the sidelines watched a lower class hero praise Katsuki for his 'amazing quirk' 'bravery' and 'heroism', even asking him to become a sidekick of his in the future. Bakugou only told him to piss off. Ko growler internally at this scene; Izuku was the hero not Bakugou! All the blond did was cry and blast anything within a radius of his arms! He had to teach this ass a lesson, the only question was how? He couldn't just go up and wallop a hero in broad daylight and in public no less. He had to be smart and creative with his approach.
Though those weren't his strong suits so he ultimately decided to let luck take the wheel. He took out his lucky coin and smily let it roll off his thumb. The coin continued to roll along the ground and toward the unsuspecting hero and Bakugou. The hero was still trying to talk to the blonde yet still not getting so much as an inch. He went to take a step closer and Kos lucky coin found itself right under his foot causing the hero to roll his ankle! The hero cried out in pain and froze in place from the pain screaming in agony!
Then the coin shot out from under the hero's boot and flew like a bullet from the pressure and right into a billboard! The coin perfectly hit a weak point on the damaged billboard and the whole thing came crashing down right on top of the frozen hero! Lucky for the hero the billboard was already missing quite a bit of itself already so he wasn't crushed to death! More of smushed very hard. And speaking of which, even though most of the billboard was already destroyed, along with whatever it was advertising, one part of it remained which spelt out the word 'LAME'.
The coin flew back into Kos hand as the billboard fell on the hero, Ko placed the coin back in his pocket and made a fake gasp at the sight of the billboard on top of the hero.
"Oh my word! What an unfortunately (and befitting) tragic end to this hero! Rest in spaghetti never forgetti.", Ko stated sarcastically while playing the worlds smallest violin on his pointer finger and thumb.
Just then Hikari showed up again with a satisfied expression on his face as he brushed his hands off. He then ran over and collected both Izuku and Ko before any other hero's or law officials could chew them out. Then in a flash of green the three teens disappeared from sight in an instant!
The other heroes on the scene could only stand by and watch in shock and awe as one of their compatriots was dispatched by a student, A STUDENT! Then another hero met a cruel fate by a billboard that may or may not have been the doing of another student. Then the first student that took Kamui Woods appeared out of nowhere and garbed the other two teens and disappeared again!
"That. Is one fast kid.", Death Arms stated in shock with wide eyes while his short hair blew from the air current from Hikaris speed.
"Uh guys. I'm just as surprised as all of you are at….whatever just happened, but aren't we forgetting something or rather someone?", stated while turning back to normal size.
Suddenly a vibrating noise was heard from somewhere on Mt. Ladies body. The blonde woman then deposited a phone from….somewhere and looking at the caller ID her eyes widened in shock! "Oh my god, its Kamui!", she exclaimed while answering the call! "Kamui! We were starting to get worried about you! We saw you with that really tall green kid one minute, disciplining him, and then the next you two vanished into thin air! Are you okay?"
Kamui then answered oh so very humbly, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"
Mt. Lady then quickly declined the call and stated quickly, "He doesnt sound okay."
