My Hero Academia: Akio Takeyama

Chapter - 7

3rd Person:

"He's already forced my hand physically I'm not letting that br-Akio force my hand mentally." Yu had already foreseen this reaction. Lia is quite...headstrong as she would say always cutting herself off socially from anyone else.

"Lia...y'know I have not gotten over the fact you hit my child but right now you don't have much of a choice do you and you know that."

…

Yu blows a strand of hair out her face brows furrowing in rage. "Right Lia." She wanted an answer it wasn't up for debate. Making sure her voice was low and powerful enough to get the point across.

"Yes." I took a breath already feeling exhausted.

"Work with me then...stop playing this game of runaround." Lia was pleading...a rare change in the tone of her voice

"Talk to him…" I opened my mouth to interrupt her but shut it considering my decision. "If not in person? Why not through the phone?"

I crossed my arms as I peeked on the picture frame sitting on my desk. I smiled and picked up running my thumb across the face of Akio as a baby. That's when I discovered his quirk the ability to make things grow and shrink. Similar to mines but just with physical objects and materials not the physical body. "F-fine i'll talk to him."

But...still something bothers me. It's been bothering me for quite a while. "Why though?" The question slipped out of her tongue unconsciously.

"Why what?" The response irked Yū somewhat and her rage quickly returned.

"Lia…" Just her name nothing more. It was enough to get the point across which left the tentacle haired women tongue tied. "Don't play dumb."

Lia shoulder drooped and she leaned against the wooden wall behind her. "There's some secrets even I would like to keep Yu. Murder…" Her voice was soft and lowered to a whisper. "Why do people commit murder?"

Why do people commit murder? Lia answered the question with a question of her own. A question that never truly has just one answer. Yu knew this.

"Do they commit murder because they like it? Is it because of the hate in their heart? Or was it because they were scared, was it truly by accident, and was it self defense?" Inhaling and exhaling is a process in which one has a way to catch one's breath. But it didn't seem to help how much Lia was struggling to breath.

Her voice was already hitching in her throat.Yū could do nothing but listen patiently. "Y-you know that my parents are bad people." Yu nodded.

"They're villains." Simple as that. Although her parents have escaped authorities more time then they can count. All the crimes they've done but somehow none of them could be tied to the these crimes they were accused of.

"Y-yeah...but When I was kid I would do anything for my family for my brother especially." Dread absolute dread, hatred, and betrayal flowed into Lia head at once. Too much to bear she slid down the wall of her home cradling her knees to her chest.

"I killed that investigator Yū...oh god." In a pause there was no holding back the flow of tears as she finally confessed her sin. For the hero Mr lady however it was more like being told the cruel truth.

"Your son was right...I am a murderer. Ironic a villain Disguised as a hero to atone for their crimes? I'm so pitiful."

Mt. Lady was frozen. The room around her just started twisting and turning bending reality. The pressure on her body was a lot to bear It was as if gravity on earth had multiplied. She wanted to say something anything but her mind came up blank like a new sheet of paper.

She didn't know what to write and even so how to translate it into spoken words. The women couldn't even comprehend what was happening. Did her training as a hero prepare her mentally for this? If so, she must have not paid attention.

For the hero Tentamaru no matter how tough and foul mouth she was there was no hiding the fact she is human. She feels what others feel. Pain. She wants what others want when they feel that pain. For it to go away. That pain was locked inside of her memories, to get rid of that pain meant to forget those memories.

But even in this worlds of quirks. No quirk could erase that one moment in her life that showed just how cruel the world really was. How unfortunate it felt to be alive when you...she can't finish that thought.

"My brother called me a murderer, Akio called me a murderer, he was so close to finding out the truth. When he said that all I could be reminded of was my brother." She clutched at her head and gritted her teeth. She wanted to pull out every hair at that moment.

"I-I didn't mean to hit him! M-my b-body just moved on it's own I couldn't see clearly! I-I just remembered that moment with my b-brother and then Akio...Akio...everytime I look at him I see my brother." The women had lost it no longer could she speak properly after that. She sobbed into her knees and tears kept coming full force.

At this point it has become to hard for her to think clearly to talk properly, and quite frankly she can't breathe either

"I-I c-can...I-I have -t-to go." The phone cut off a second later cutting the communication between the two. Yū just stared at her phone screen as the ended Mark flashed across her screen and then disappeared indicating that the call was over. The conversation was over. But it left her with a bad feeling in her stomach.

It's over. She ended the call. It took another quick look at the phone screen for her body to finally recognize that she needed to breath again. Yū clutched the cloth at her heart as she could feel it racing, she was breathing heAvily side effects for not breathing for a long amount of time.

Why didn't I say anything? You could've said anything but you say that there in silence and let your friend talk to you in anguish.

"Lia…"

She placed two hands on the top of her blind hair in frustration.

"Akio...what are you doing?"

Akio takeyama P.O.V

What have I done?!

I...didn't get much sleep last night so I unfortunately couldn't help but oversleep today. A look at my phone's time told me I was late for school I groaned as I realized Aizawa was going to penalize me for coming late today.

He would probably say something along the lines of "If you're going to come late don't come at all." I sighed and ran a hand through my messy blonde hair. As much as I hate it...there's no point in staying here.

I need to take a bath before I leave today.

At school

I cursed as I got off the train and jogged all the way to school. Transportation is sometimes unreliable and unbearable. As I walked up to the entrance I found myself raising an eyebrow in curiosity. I've arrived but seemingly today has started off a little odd because the front entrance of the school has a hole busted through the front.

My investigation was interrupted by the approaching sounds of police sirens. "What the-?" I turned swiftly as police cars rode up. I turned back and powered walk through the gates and in front of the school to find news reporters. All of them were the reason this commotion is going on? Now I understand why the police were called they broke in.

All of them were still asking questions and pressuring Aizawa and President Mic. I scratched my head and smiled.

Maybe I can create a wall and push them all back to the entrance.

That's risky though...Aizawa may scold me for that. Plus i don't want my name to be dragged through the dirt because of my actions. "Hey!" All of the news reporters and their Crewmen turned to me. I pointed to the entrance where the police were waiting outside.

"All might has arrived! He's right out there." They all started running trying their best to get an interview with the symbol of peace. Instead it was the police who met them and I started snickering watching as they were forced to put down their equipment and leave the school grounds more disappointed than ever.

A hand grasped my shoulder and I turned around to face them. It was Aizawa. I bowed. "Good mourning." I greeted him.

"You're late." Aizawa said with a slight glare. I chuckled and rubbed the back of my head sheepishly. "Sorry." His features relaxed and he smiled.

"Although i'll let it slide since you did get them off our backs." President Mic ran up and laughed. "Yeah kid for that you rock!" He gave me a thumbs up and I shrugged my shoulders.

"I did nothing much."

I pointed a thumb behind me. "Still I have to ask who put that hole there?" President Mic smile faded and it turned to one of a more serious face. Aizawa and president mic locked eyes before giving a nod to each other. Like they already knew what the other was saying.

"C'mon don't worry about that you got a class to get to." Aizawa said turning and walking into the school. I saw President Mic walk off in another direction as I followed Aizawa to class.

Aizawa got into his sleeping bag as usual when he gave us task that didn't require him. Although this time was different. Momo plus Midoriya stood in front of the class. I turned to Todoroki. "What did I miss?" He looked at me and shook his head.

"We were to appoint a class representative Izuku got picked." He scratched his head. "Then the panicking with the level 3 security breach occurred. From what I heard Lida was able to calm everyone down." I nodded and turned to the sound of a chair scratching against the floor. Lida stood tall and proud his hand raised. It was as if he was taking a pledge.

"I humbly accept! I pledge to carry out the responsibilities of class rep to my fullest abilities!" I was spot on about the pledge thing but I clapped anyway.

"Woooo go class rep Lida." I said unenthusiastically I mean I don't really care much for this. But Lida still turned to me and bowed in thanks.

"Yeah, emergency exit Lida don't let us down man!" I'm missing the joke their aren't I? I leaned back in my chair as Aizawa finally decided it was best he get out of his sleeping bag as everything was finally taken care of.

"Finally...that took longer than it had to be. If everyone is listening, I have important news to share with everyone. Today's class will be split into three instructions, All Might, me and one other person." Aizawa explained to the class. We all perked up at the mention of this.

So we're getting split up into groups? That last time that ever happened to me was in middle school when we were playing sports or going on trips that required this.

"Excuse me! What will we be doing?" Sero asked the question on everyone's mind.

Aizawa held up a card that said rescue. Of course that is the very basic thing every hero should be able to do right? To save people during disasters sinking ships, car crashes, and bombings it's all the same.

"Man my arms are ready to rumble!" Everyone expressed their excitement for the following training exercise. "This'll be fun." I said a little happy.

"Im not done talking yet." The whole class went silent again their attention back on Aizawa.

"You decide if you want to wear your costume or not. I know your excited about these costumes but keep in mind you may not be used to them yet and they may limit your abilities." With the press of a remote our costumes came sliding out the wall.

"That's all get ready." Like that Aizawa exited the classroom. Everyone got up to retrieve their costumes. I stretched and sighed.

More work for today huh?

Some planes were flying in the distance. People most likely traveling from one place to another. Whatever the reason being vacation, a chance at a new life, or work they have a reason to leave. I wonder if my mother hated living here at one point. I think when i become a hero i'm going to travel.

I smile, Yeah i think that would be good.

I wonder what Tsuyu would want to do? Would she want to stay here where it's close to her family or travel and explore the world.

If it's not the latter maybe I suggest she travel with me when we become independent heroes or something?

…

I turn and look at Tsuyu. We both at the exact time catch each other's eyes. She smiles at me making my mind melt. She looks so cute. Wait...what did i just say? I turn around quickly.

…

I put a hand on my head feeling my face heat up. What am I thinking!? I start to panic to once I realize i didn't smile back at Tsuyu. Knowing her she's definitely coming over here to check on me. I'm already starting to sweat.

"Akio." I looked to my left finding Momo approaching. "Hey what's up?" She smiles.

"I wanted to ask if you're okay? You seem to be sweating a lot." Momo asked waiting patiently as i thought of what to say. I just nodded trying to wipe the sweat from my face.

"I could make you a towel if you want?" She suggested.

"No I'm perfectly fi-"

"Akio?" I jump up from my seat and spin around with a nervous chuckle.

"Uh...what's up?" I put a hand behind my head trying to avoid eye contact with Tsuyu. I could hear Momo hum in thought then suddenly looking up as if realizing something she put a fist into the palm of her open hand.

"Did something happen between you two?" Huh? What did she just say? I turn to Yaoyorozu shaking my head and my hands to quickly dismiss the idea.

"N-no nothing like that!" I quickly say and Momo starts pondering. "Then what else could it be if she's making you so uncomfortable that you're not looking at her?" Yaoyorozu pushes as i find myself against a wall mentally.

Oh no. I panic as Tsuyu leans into my eyesight. "Akio... Is that true?" There silence I try my hardest to not falter but the way Tsuyu sight is unwavering makes me do so.

"I didn't want to look at you because you look really beautiful today." As I said that there was silence. I could feel myself blush as a faint pink appeared on Tsuyu cheeks.

We looked away from each other as I rubbed my arm from the awkwardness. "Oh...I see my mistake." I looked at Mono who eyes flickered from both of us as she covered her mouth.

Just then I turned my head swiftly to the sound of Lida voice. I thanked silently for getting me out of that situation. It was time for departure.

Lida took his job seriously and wanted us to enter the bus in an organized way but it was all for not as the bus had plenty of space to occupy every student.

I took my seat. I leaned back and crossed my arms as the bus started up and we road off.

I took a seat in the back of the bus next to todoroki. It looks like he dozed off...my eyes couldn't help but wander to examine his face. White and red hair. The burn mark all over his left eye. I wonder how he got it? Was it an accident that happened in his past or s-Todoroki eyes opened up a little and we made eye contact.

I froze.

…

"Sorry…" I said quickly. He shook his head and his eyes went to look out the window. After some time of not looking at each other I heard him call me.

"Yes?"

He shifted in his seat. "You...remind me of someone." I raised an eyebrow.

"Is that so?" I chuckled and with a smile asked. "who do I look like?"

"You look like…" There was a pause. "Yū Takeyama the hero mt. Lady." I swiftly turned to face him. We stared right at each other todoroki was sitting straight and wasn't breaking eye contact.

There is no possible way he knows. Does he?

I gulped and i felt as if I didn't say anything he might suspect something. "Tha-" I jolt from the commotion up front as I see Bakugo jump up.

"What did you say!? I'll kill you!"

What the heck just happened? Although I'm actually happy for the interruption just now. I heard what Denki said and chuckled.

"It's true you know." Bakugo turned around brows furrowed in rage. "You want some too!?"

"Aww the whittle baby is hiding behind a shell of anger to hide his true emotions of embarrassment." I was just adding fuel to the fire at this point.

Kirishima and Denki started crying in laughter at what I said.

"That's it! I'm going to ki-" Lida then jumped up interrupting the fun with his we should be 'encouraging each other' speech.

"Stop messing around. We're here." Aizawa voice was the only one that made us shut up in the end.

As soon as we walked out we were greeted with the sight of our other instructor. Thirteen the rescue hero. I wasn't really paying attention because the moment we walked in I was met with this enormous facility called USJ. It made my jaw drop in astonishment.

"All of you must know about my quirk black hole. It can suck up anything and turn it into dust." That is the definition of a black hole isn't it? A black hole is something that has a gravitational field so intense that no matter or radiation can escape. In simpler terms anyone who enters is gone without a trace.

"Well yes but the thing about thirteens quirk is that for example someone is falling from a crumbling building. You would think...hey thirteen will just use her quirk to suck up the falling debris and save the person. A black hole has a gravitational pull so strong that the moment thirteen activates their quirk the person and the falling debris will be turned into dust." My words seem to click in everyone head as they looked to thirteen and then to themselves.

"It's a quirk that can easily kill too huh?" Kaminari states looking down.

"Yes and for some of you it's true of your quirks too right?" Then thirteen continued on with what she wanted to get across.

What she said...made me think about my mother's quirk. Her ability to obviously grow to such a large size is obviously a blessing and a curse in itself. Easy for her to dispatch bigger villains, but it's just as easy for her to kill and hurt civilians at the same time.

"I hope that you leave here with the understanding that your powers are used to help someone." Thirteen finished causing the class to applause her on her short lecture.

I joined in on the applause as Thirteen bowed. I see now how hard it is to be a hero with quirks like that. It shows how much care and precision heroes must to make sure that nothing goes wrong.

But then sometimes you have to realize in this line of work events and scenarios similar to that are unavoidable.

I was elbowed in the side. It was Denki...oh How careless of me I wasn't even listening to anything else. "Bro...this doesn't look good." His voice dripped with concern and I raised an eyebrow as I moved to the front.

"Stay back!" Aizawa puts a hand out to stop me and I soon understand why. Villains and a whole lot of them.

I put my scarf over my mouth and conjured an ice shuriken. This is not a drill and based on that hard look Aizawa has this is going to get ugly.

Real quick.
