Fury of the sun chapter 2

It had been a week since the fire. A week since one of the biggest disasters Japan had seen in centuries. The fire burned constantly with all the relief efforts doing nothing. Water, dirt, anything that could hopefully put it out didn't work. Then all of a sudden the fire stopped.

The shape the flames took on left many experts to wonder. Was this natural or the work of a quirk. The most agreed upon answer was the latter. But then the question arose. Who possessed a fire quirk that was powerful to such a scale? Not only that, but what was the animal visage within fire. Was it part of the quirk?

The answer to these questions no one knew. And that made heroes and officials everywhere fearful. Whoever had done this was still out there. And the only person who had information was the flame hero Endeavor since he was at the epicenter. But also Endeavor never shared any information. Whether it be his pride that was burned along with him scarring him for life, or something else.

It had been a week since the fire. Because everything he had was lost, Izuku wandered the streets aimlessly. He had nowhere to go. No one to turn to. He was alone. But in that time alone he discovered something. Walking through back alleys and decrepit parts of the city, he learned. Learned that the system is broken.

One night as he was searching for a place to spend the night he witnessed it. There was a girl in the alley behind a dumpster. Since she was homeless like he was she was naturally dirty. But Izuku noticed that she was pretty. Covered in dirt or not. As he started towards her 4 men came out if the dark opposite of him and made their way towards her.

"Hey there little lady. We noticed you're all alone. How would you like to have some fun with me and my friends."

The girl, noticing the men and their leering smiles replied. "No thank you I'd like to be left alone."

The men not taking no for answer advanced towards her. "Well that's too bad. We were hoping you'd come willingly. Oh well, we'll still have our fun. Buck, hold her down."

At this a hulking man stepped forward. He looked like a bear so Izuku guessed his quirk was related to his appearance. Worrying for the girl, Izuku rushed out of the alley to try and find help. That's when he saw the hero Captain Celebrity. Izuku knew he was one of those who focused on popularity but still hoped he would help.

Rushing up to him Izuku pleaded for his help. "Captain Celebrity. Please you have to come help. There are men in that alley trying to rape a girl. She needs help."

Captain Celebrity regarded Izuku then waved him off. "Beat it kid. I don't have time for your jokes."

Hearing this Izuku tried getting him to come. "I'm not joking! They're really trying to hurt her!" Captain Celebrity looked at him with a stern glare. Then he replied, "I said beat it kid."

Izuku, seeing he wasn't going to get his help rushed back to the alley. Hoping they hadn't already done anything to her. But it was too late. He saw what he guessed was the boss on top of the girl. Thrusting. Grunting. The girl crying for him to stop as tears cascaded from her eyes.

And Izuku felt his rage grow. These sick twisted men were doing to her what Endeavor did to him. Taking and breaking her down. When Izukus anger peaked he shouted at the men.

"Get off of her right now!"

The men turned and looked him over. Then they laughed at him. "Or what little hero? Gonna stop us with your amazing quirk?"

Izuku silently thought about his answer. Then he replied, "No, I won't stop you. I'll kill you. I'll burn you until nothing remains of you."

This got the men's attention. The boss got off the girl and stood up. "You little bastard. You're the one who's gonna get killed!" The men rushed at Izuku.

Since Izuku had lost everything he had learned. Learned how broken the system was. But that's not all he learned. Since his quirk activated he learned about it. And its potential was unlimited.

As the men rushed at him he snapped his fingers. In that instant two flaming figures were formed. They resembled wolves. Wolves with bodies made of green fire and eyes burning red.

As the men rushed at him he muttered one command. "Annihilate." And annihilate they did. The wolves attacked the men. Tore their limbs from their bodies. All the while burning them to a black char.

Izuku learned that the not only did his fire burn hotter than the sun. If he imagined it, his flame took physical form. Solid. So he named his quirk aptly. Living starfire.

The wolves made short work of the men. In less than 10 seconds they were nothing more than burned body parts. He noticed the girl staring at him in fear. He did not care. He tossed her his shirt then told her to leave. And leave she did.

As he was leaving the alley he heard footsteps behind him. "Here to arrest me?" Izuku knew there were heroes nearby so he wouldn't have been surprised. But he wasn't gonnna go to jail. If anyone deserved to be put in jail It would be Endeavor and Captain Celebrity. The voice that replied made Izuku's spine tingle.

"No, I'm not here to arrest you. I'm here to make you an offer." Immediately Izuku knew this was a man he couldn't beat at his current level of skill.

He turned to look at the man and was shocked by what he saw. The man was abnormally tall, and wore a business suit. But the most prominent feature was his face. Or lack thereof. Where his eyes and nose would be was only flesh. Leaving only his mouth as a facial feature.

But even so Izuku got the feeling this man did not mean him harm. With that in mind Izuku answered the man. "What kind of offer?"

The man hearing Izuku's reply, smiled. Then he bowed. "Allow me to introduce myself. You may call me All for One. Or boss if you accept my proposal. You see, I've taken an interest in you since that fire, and have come to extend an invitation of sorts."

Izuku looked at the man and once again asked. "What kind of invitation."

All for One chuckled. "Of course, of course. Well in short my boy the current system is broken. A joke. So me and my successor have set about a plan to change it. I am building an organization. One that will tear down this system and let true freedom reign."

"And why exactly would you choose me for this organization."

"Because not only are you strong, but you have been wronged and discarded by the system. My informants have told me about you. Izuku Midoriya. Presumed quirkless. Ridiculed for this presumption."

Izuku listened to the him in silence.

"Did you know Endeavor is not being punished for what he did. And that Captain Celebrity right now is patrolling the streets. Acting as if a scared little boy hadn't tried to warn him of a rape victim."

"What do you mean Endeavor isn't being punished."

All for One let his smile falter. "You are presumed dead since your body was not recovered. Right now he uses all his connections to keep it that way. The people would not take kindly to a murdering hero now would they."

Izuku contemplated his words. He had no reason to believe him but he felt his words were true. After giving it some thought Izuku spoke.

"What do I stand to gain from this. And what would you have me do."

All for One's smile returned. "First as a welcoming gift we would tear down Endeavor. Second, I only require you help us destroy the broken system. And lastly you would only have to do what I, and on occasion, my successor ask of you. Other than that you are free to come and go as please."

"That's all?"

All for One nodded. "That's all. But before I hear your answer I wish to ask. What would you like to do? In this world where the loved and mighty are barred from hardship and punishment."

It did not take long for Izuku to answer. "I only wish to incinerate everything they've built."

All for One let out a long and hardly laugh. "You will get along fine with Dabi. So I take it you accept my offer, Izuku Midoriya?"

Izuku nodded. The he looked at All for One and spoke. "Izuku Midoriya is presumed dead yes?" All for One nodded. "Then I shall like to be called by another name."

All for One asked, "And what would that be, my dear boy."

Izuku smiled. "My mother had a book. A very old book. One of 17th century poetry, and one has always stuck with me." All for stood there silently. Izuku could tell he was waiting for him to finish his thought process. "Ozymandias. The name of the poem, and it's long gone yet everlasting king."

One for all looked at him with a slight smile. "So you wish to be called after a king?" Izuku chuckled. "It's not because he was a king. It's because he was the king of kings. And his only legacy left behind was the endless sands on the world he conquered."

All for One let out yet another long laugh. "Very well. Ozymandias it is. Welcome to the league of villians." All for one extended his hand for a handshake.

Ozymandias took his hand. " I look forward to working with you."
