Izuku's phone buzzed and woke him from his slumber, he sleepily slammed his hand down on his desk searching for his phone while still keeping his face down in his pillow. He opened his phone, silently groaning at the fact someone was texting him at 4:17 in the fucking morning.
Izuku didn't even recognize the number, the message read: Change of plans, get here by 5:00 sharp or we come for you -Abyss
'I'm gonna ignore the fact that I never even gave her my number' Izuku thought to himself as he began to get ready.
He stealthily walked out into the rest of the house ready to make a beeline towards the door, unfortunately, Yu had other ideas.
"Where are you going?" She asked as he was making his way through the kitchen.
"Y-Yu, I'm just, um, going for a walk" Izuku panicked and said the first thing that came to his mind.
Yu looked at him skeptically "At" She looked at her own phone "4:23 in the morning? And while you're in hiking boots"
Izuku cursed under his breath "Yeah, I'm going for a walk in the woods" he tried his best to sound convincing 'Yeah, great going idiot. Why in the hell would you think she'd buy that'
Yu glared at him for a few seconds before her gaze softened "Okay" she went back to eating her breakfast.
Izuku then quickly walked out of the door, not wanting to risk Rumi or, god forbid, his mother walked out into the kitchen. As soon as Izuku got out of the door he broke into a sprint, practically jumping down the stairs one flight at a time.
Izuku's breath came out in short bursts as he propped himself up on a tall tree, he checked his phone again, 4:57, cutting it very close Izuku began running again.
When he got to the cliff face, the entrance to the cave was blocked off again, non of the women that he had met the previous day were at the designated point either.
Izuku was searching the surrounding area when a buzzing noise distracted him, he whirled around and faced a flat disc like drone with a turret attached to the bottom.
The drone stared at him, before blaring a siren and shooting Izuku in the shoulder, sending him to the ground.
"Shit!" Izuku screamed in pain, there was no puncture wound so Izuku surmised that he was shot his a rubber bullet, but it still hurt like hell.
Almost like the first drone was a watchman who's job was to alert the rest of the hive of danger, a swarm of other drones that looked just like the one that had shot him.
Izuku took off running before he could be shot anymore.
Izuku's feet pounded against the ground once again as he ran from the hostile drones, getting occasionally shot in the legs or the arms.
Izuku was eventually able to hide from the killer flying robots behind a tree. He pulled out his phone and texted the unknown number that had called for his presence in the first place.
WHY AM I BEING CHASED BY A BUNCH OF DRONES? GET DOWN HERE AND HELP ME
Look behind you -Heaven
'Look behind me?' Izuku thought, he slowly turned his body 180 degrees and was promptly charged by a lone drone. Izuku fell to the ground, grabbed a large stick to his left, and swung with all his might, destroying the robot. but not before the robot got another pot shot on his collarbone.
Something snapped inside of Izuku, his arms and legs became coated in the same red substance from yesterday as he rocketed back to the cliff, where the rest of the drones were waiting for him.
A staring contest began, both parties waiting for the other to move. Finally, after 10 minutes, the drones all collectively charged at him, but they didn't even move 2 feet before Izuku clapped and sent a blade like shockwave toward the robots and destroyed them all in a fiery explosion.
Izuku's posture slumped as he rested his nerves, allowing himself to drop his guard. Unfortunately, this lead to him being decked by a large metal fist.
Izuku looked up at his attacker: a robot with dark green armour, about twice his hight, with a singular pulsing red eye. Izuku got to his feet, spitting out a bloody tooth in the process.
The red stuff on his arms morphed into blades as he took what could be considered a fighting stance. "Come at me then" he huffed out to the mechanical menace.
They both charged and clashed, fist clashing with sword. Izuku raised both of his swords as he prepared to slice off both of it's arms, but in doing so he gave the robot a opportunity to punch Izuku in his stomach.
The bot grabbed Izuku by the neck and threw himself into the cliff side, creating a crater in the rock and coming very close to knocking him out.
Izuku's thoughts were bouncing around in his head, he slammed his fists into his skull to get his head straight. He and the robot glared at each other and he kicked off if the cliff, his swords primed and ready to stab.
The machine pulled back a fist and threw it forward to intercept Izuku's body.
But Izuku shifted in midair and successfully shoved his swords through the bot's midsection, he planted his feet to the ground and hauled the robot over his head, slamming it onto the ground and smashing it too pieces.
Izuku screamed to the heavens in victory and he yanked his swords from the mechanical cadaver, before they disappeared into nothingness.
His phone pinged and he saw that the number had sent him an image of a training regimen and another message
You're going come to this area at 5:00 in the morning everyday to train your mind and body, you are going to use our gym and follow this plan to build your muscles, and you are going to be taught how to properly fight, your strikes were sloppy and predictable which can get you killed very easily -Empress
Izuku huffed as he shoved his phone back into his pocket and began his trek back home with bruises a plenty.
'This is gonna be a nightmare to explain to mom and Rumi'
