Chapter 15

Mirko and I were riding on the train on the way to Hosu, I looked out the window and sighed, the sun was setting, I bit my lip.

"Hey don't worry things will be just fine." Mirko assured me, I rubbed my arm and took out my phone to text Iida again.

I bit my lip, no response.

"Mirko… If things go sideways, can you trust me?" I asked looking at her, the rabbit hero raised a brow, "What's that supposed to mean?" I sighed. "Please." I begged.

Mirko's expression softened, the first time I've ever seen in anime or manga. "... fine." She reluctantly agreed and the rest of the train ride was quiet.

Soon it was night, we were close to Hosu, I put my visor on and waited, if things went the same way then-

CRASH!

Right on cue, the Nomu crashed into the train car, "What the hell?!" Mirko leaped off and kicked the Nomu away.

"Nomu, I thought there was only one." I told Mirko who growled, "The thing from your USJ attack? Well apparently we ran into its ugly brother." She chased after it, I looked around, everyone was safe.

I turned up FC and jumped after my teacher.

I jumped from roof to roof and found myself on the street, there were cars on fire, as were some buildings. I saw Mirko fighting a Nomu, there were two more wreaking havoc.

"Iida where are you?!" I turned to see the hero Iida was interning with. "Has anyone seen him?" He asked, I growled and ran towards Mirko who kicked the Nomu away.

"Mirko!" I called, "Kid! Get the civilians out of-" But I cut her off. "Iida isn't here, the hero he's interning with is here but Iida is missing. I think he went after Stain." Her eyes widened in shock, we turned to see the Nomu getting up.

"Mirko, please give me permission to use my quirk to fight." I demanded. "What?!" She turned to me, "Please trust me!" I begged.

Mirko looked at the Nomu and then at me, she growled and turned back to the Nomu. "Fine, I, Mirko, give you permission to use your quirk to fight." I smiled. "Thank you."

She looked at me from the corner of her eyes. "Don't make me regret this kid. I'll come running once I'm done!" She leaped into battle.

I ran into the alleys, I used black whip to swing around, I hopped onto the roof and ran across the rooftop and looked down to find Iida.

As I ran, I took out my phone and sent an SOS through the Class 1-A Group Chat.

"Come on, come on!" I then saw Stain standing over Iida. I jumped down and aimed my gauntlets at Stain.

"AIR FORCE!" Two shots of compressed air hit Stain in the chest sending him back.

I got in front of Iida and expanded my shield, "I knew you were thinking of going after him, but actually doing it was another thing entirely." I looked at him, my mask receding showing my scowl.

"Midoriya what are you doing here?!" Iida asked, "Saving your life." I retorted as Stain got back up.

"Can you move?" I asked him, "No, he paralyzed me." Iida answered. I looked back at Stain.

My mask snapped back into place as I glared at him through my visor.

"More fakes." Stain growled. I looked at Native, I can't carry him and Tenya out of here on my own, I already sent out my location so Shoto should be here soon.

"I'm not gonna let you hurt him anymore Stain." I called. I could feel the killing intent coming off of the Hero Killer, I was scared but now wasn't the time to freeze.

"Move, if you value your life then move aside, all fakes must be purged." Stain pointed his sword at me. "Not gonna happen." I retorted.

"A hero's job is to protect people and now I'm protecting my friend." I moved forward so that I was next to Native.

Stain smirked, "Is that so, then show me your resolve 'Hero'." He brandished his blades and charged at me.

I aimed and shot 3 air bullets at him, he dodged them all and tried to slice me, I raised my shield and parried, I charged 10% into my fist and punched him in the gut sending him back again, I needed to keep him far.

"GET OUT OF HERE MIDORIYA! THIS IS MY FIGHT, THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!" Iida yelled at me, I growled in annoyance and collapsed my shield taking aim at the charging hero killer.

"This has everything to do with me! You come here for revenge for your brother but you don't even think about what he would want for you." I scolded as I shot more air bullets at Stain in rapid succession.

"You were blinded by your anger, I get it!" I clapped my hands hard sending a gust of wind blowing him back. "But it's my job, not as your classmate or even your class president, but as your friend to keep you from doing something stupid!" I turned to face Iida.

"Big mistake!" Stain said as he got close, but a blast of fire sent him back. I smirked, "Took you long enough Frostflame." I commented as Todoroki in his blue hero costume, walked up next to me, "Next time, be more specific in your message Dekiru." Shoto replied pocketing his phone.

Stain landed as Shoto used his ice to bring Native closer to us, "We can't run, he'll try and chase after us if we do." Shoto deduced. I put a hand on Shoto's shoulder, "Let me try and talk him down." I whispered, Shoto looked at me surprised, "Trust me." I pleaded.

Shoto slowly nodded. "If he gets close, roast him." I commanded as I walked forward.

"He's just a kid, please." I begged. "He can still be a hero!" I looked at the hero killer. "He came at me with the intent of vengeance, that's not a trait of a hero." The Hero Killer said. "People like him need to be culled."

"He's like this because you crippled his brother!" I replied, "A loving brother who was a hero because he wanted to make his younger brother proud! You made him how he was today because of your twisted ideals!" I tried to reason

"My ideals are true." Stain said as he dashed at me trying to get past me but I was able to grab his scarf and throw him back. "This world has forgotten the true meaning of hero!" He glared at me, I gritted my teeth. "And what is a hero to you?" I asked.

"Midoriya what are you-" Iida was trying to ask but I cut him off. "Shut up Iida, I'm still pissed at you!" I snapped at him making him close his mouth. Shoto looked shocked at my tone.

Stain raised an eyebrow. "A hero is supposed to save people, without rewards, without the fame, without the fortune, to do it out of the kindness of their hearts." Stain said, glaring at me.

"People today want to be a hero because of fame, wealth and recognition." Stain growled. "They aren't true heroes."

"Then what, you're gonna kill all the people who want to be heroes because of their goals?" I asked, keeping my hands trained on him in case he tried to move.

"Yes, I will do what needs to be done to create a better society." Stain said brandishing his blades once again. My scowl was hidden behind my mask

"You're wrong." I said. Stain narrowed his eyes at me. "People become heroes for different reasons, you say that they only want fame and fortune because of selfish reasons but your vision is narrow!" That was the last straw for him as he charged at me with his blades.

I flicked two of my fingers at the same time to create a stronger air bullet. 'Air Force: Buck Shot!' I named my new long range attack, the shot hit his hand, his blade went flying.

"Everyone has different motivations, becoming a hero to honor their legacy!" I said, Iida looked shocked, I ran up to Stain and grabbed his wrist to keep him from swinging his sword. "To make money to provide for their family!" The image of Ochako came into my mind.

Stain unsheathed a knife and I grabbed his other wrist before he could try and swipe at me. "WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?!" Stain screamed at my face, I looked into his eyes, I could see the determination and drive in them.

"I'm trying to get you to stop your hunt." I said, his eyes widening. "To change your mind before you hurt more people directly and indirectly." I held his wrists, using 15% of OFA to keep him from breaking free.

Stain gave me a stare. "You truly are a hero, Dekiru." Stain said as he stopped struggling. "But you are naive. I chose this path and I must see it through the end." I felt his spiked boot in my gut kicking me back.

Stain dashed at Native and Iida, throwing knives at Shoto who created a wall of ice to protect the three.

I held my stomach and looked at Stain as he ran up the ice wall. "No!" I shot black whip at him and pulled him back when it wrapped around his torso.

Stain changed his positioning and attempted to get a slice at me but I expanded my shield and the blade scratched the shield, I sidestepped before he swung his sword at me.

"You won't stop me from my mission!" He screamed, his eyes growing more crazed. I growled, "And you won't stop me from my mission." I returned as I raised my shield.

"Your drive is strong kid… but it won't be enough."

Stain rushed me but Iida jumped in and kicked him away. "Iida?" I looked at him, "You were right, I wasn't acting like a hero my brother wanted me to be." He said, "I will make it up to you by helping you here and now!" I blinked, wow he changed fast.

"Well then, Ingenium." I called him using his hero name, making him flinch. "If you want to be a hero then we need to keep Stain here until backup arrives."

Stain looked murderous. "Just because you changed your tone doesn't make you any less fake!" He screamed.

"Don't listen to Stain." I told Iida, "His vision is too narrow to look at all the good in the world." I charged up FC once again. "Frost, keep Native safe!" I dashed towards the hero killer and met him head on.

Mirko kicked off the nomu and watched as he recovered from the attack, "Not doing anything." She gritted her teeth.

Just then a torrent of flames enveloped the nomu. Mirko looked to the side to see Endeavour. "Fancy seeing you here, number 2." She narrowed her eyes. Endeavour raised an eyebrow at her.

"Surprised to see you having trouble with one enemy." He retorted. "The bastard's regeneration is quick. What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Looking for the Hero Killer." He responded, Mirko frowned. "Well right now I think your fire is the only thing that can keep the nomu from regenerating." She looked at the charred body of the monster.

"I need to go look for my intern." She turned around.

"Fine." Endeavour grunted and Mirko ran off as a nomu tackled Endeavour.

"So you want to fight too huh?" He smirked and increased his fire power.

Mirko ran faster, "You better be alive kid." She muttered to herself.

"STAY STILL!" Stain screamed as he tried to slice me into pieces

"NO WAY!" I screamed back jumping away, I had to avoid being cut, he couldn't use his blood curdle if he didn't have any blood. Iida took the opportunity to drive a kick into Stain's ribs, "GAH!" He turned to swipe at Iida but he was interrupted by an air bullet to the back.

"Ingenium! keep your distance!" I called, "It's very difficult!" He replied and I growled, I looked at Native, "Ingenium, take Native to an ambulance now! he's gonna bleed out." I ordered.

Iida looked at me and then at Stain, "You want to avenge your brother, then save the people his attacker goes after next, make sure it doesn't happen again." Iida looked at Native and back at me before nodding and running to Native's side and picked him up.

As Iida left I heard Stain growl, "You really are a pain." I smirked behind my mask, "Takes one to know one." Todoroki came up to me. "Now what?" He asked.

"Now we need to keep him here, don't interfere, if I'm correct you don't have permission to use your quirk." Todoroki looked at me stunned and gritted his teeth. "Don't be stupid." I then rushed Stain before he could finish.

"Time to end this!" I called and unleashed black whip, Stain tried to cut the whips but it was no use as the tendrils wrapped around him, I jumped high taking him with me, "Ultimate move!" I smirked, I always wanted to do this!

I then pulled myself towards him at high speeds, "This is from my internship with Mirko!" I smirked. "Lunar Impact!" I landed on his stomach knocking the wind out of him, I smirked as he was now unconscious.

I kicked off and wrapped black whips around him, pulling him over me, I landed and caught the unconscious villain.

"Frost, find some rope to tie this guy up." I looked over to Todoroki who nodded and went to find rope.

I looked at Stain, I changed a lot, I hope that it was for the best.

Shoto came back with rope, "Where did you find that?" I asked looking at the perfectly good rope. "In the dumpster, I was surprised too." He explained, I released black whip and Shoto started to tie up Stain, we also disarmed him of all his weapons, I was sure that we got all of it.

"KID!" I heard Mirko call out. I turned around, and Mirko came running with Iida. "Your… Alright…" She stopped as she saw Stain, "Whoa, what happened to him?" She asked.

"You beat him?" Iida looked shocked. I stared at him and then socked him across the cheek hard. "YOU IDIOT, YOU COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED!" I yelled at him.

Mirko crouched next to Stain and looked at her intern. "Kid's right, you could have been killed if he didn't show up." She got up and walked in front of Iida who looked down in guilt. "I'll let the police handle you." Mirko then turned to me.

"And you, I don't know whether to be pissed or fucking proud." She smirked and ruffled my hair. "I'll go with proud for now." She looked at Shoto. "So you're here, last I saw your dad he was taking on Nomu." She said. "I think he has it under control by now."

We took Stain to the street, "I saved Native and came back." Iida told me, "I'm… sorry for my behaviour." I looked at my friend. "You need to be careful with your anger Iida, it can be a strong weapon but if not controlled, people get hurt." I said in a wise tone.

Mirko scoffed. "When did you become so wise." I sighed as back up came, What was I forgetting..

There was a loud screech, "MIDORIYA!" Before I could react, Iida pushed me just in time as a winged Nomu came swooping down and grabbed Iida who started flying away.

I looked up shocked, I thought that guy would have been dealt with! "IIDA!" I screamed and charged up 15% ready to jump but then, Stain moved faster than I could see and stabbed the now paralized nomu.

Everyone, especially me, was shocked, Iida was saved by the hero killer. "Both this shame filled society, and the criminals who wield their power in the name of petty mischief." He started standing up, Iida was frozen in fear.

"Are targets of my purge, all of this for a better society!" He looked at Iida. "I don't want to let you live, but Dekiru's conviction showed me that there are heroes who are good at heart, I will allow you to grow." He turned to the rest of us.

"But there are heroes who need to be culled." Just then Endeavor arrived, damn it!

"Endeavour, the most unworthy of them all." I could feel the air becoming denser. "YOUR ALL FAKES!" I was becoming harder to breathe as everyone stood in fear of Stain's killing intent, NO NOT THIS TIME!

I bit my tongue and let my OFA fill my body. "If I don't fix this broken society." I tried to move, I growled, NO NO NO NO NO!

"Only two people are allowed to kill me!" Stain's presence started to grow, "ALL MIGHT AND DEKIRU!"

I dashed towards him and tackled him off Iida and used black whip to restrain him once again. "The hero society isn't broken, It doesn't require blood to make changes, just people who are brave and strong enough to survive in this harsh world and prove themselves!" I raised my fist. "STAIN You are under arrest!" I knocked him out with a punch.

I panted as I let go sitting on my butt, everyone looked at me in shock and awe. "No more bloodshed…" I caught my breath and got up. "Someone cuff him before he wakes up." I stumbled past them.

Tomorrow was gonna be a rough day, but I didn't care right now, moving with his killing intent flaring like that took a lot out of me.

I just wanted to sleep.
