Finally! This was a one parter and it was too late to change that,. Read this in bits if you need to. I was able to get this done and I am relatively satisfied with it. This was by far this biggest pain in the ass to write. I rewrote the ending like four times and added things in and took them out. I wanted this to be as exciting and realistic as possible, and it was a FUCKING PAIN! I swear to god when we get to heroes rising i'm not following the movie so closely and that it will be much more simpler. Please like and be satisfied with this, I know it could be much simpler I just didn't feel like rewriting it again and just wanted to get back to the main story. Ok I'm done rambling, enjoy.


Chapter 21 Two Heroes

Izuku and Taku were playing cards on a table in the back of the plane. They would be arriving at I-Island in about forty minutes. The flight has been very enjoyable for Izuku. Taku's been out for most of it but it's been fun, looking out the window and seeing the pacific ocean and the islands below was truly beautiful. After two movies, some reading, listening to music and a little nap he woke to see that Taku had finally woken up. After some talking the two had been playing cards ever since. They were playing heads up poker, they had played several hands and were on their final one, they've pretty much gone back and forth taking each others money. The flight attendant was acting as their dealer and there was $230 in the pot right now. There was a four of diamonds, a ten of diamonds, a queen of spades as the flop, a four of clubs as the turn, then she put down a seven of diamonds as the river. Both boys looked at the hand they each had, neither revealing a poker face.

Izuku was confident in his hand as he added five more dollars to the pot. Taku seemed to be confident in his as he added fifteen to it as well. "Getting confident Taku?"

"You know how I play bro, go big or go home." He kept a neutral expression before smirking and revealing an ace and king of diamonds. "Flush."

Taku smirked at his friend confidently while Izuku looked at his hand unsurely. He brought a hand to his head, "Aw maaaan!" He groaned sadly, dramatically as he revealed his hand before grinning, "Full House." He said in a funny voice as he showed a four of hearts and a queen of clubs.

Taku's eyes went wide seeing this, "You WHORE!" He exclaimed, not really mad.

Izuku grinned as he collected his money, "What can I say, every hand's a winner and a loser. Look at it like this, by us not playing for serious money, as your friend I'm slowly helping you beat your gambling addiction." He joked.

"I DON'T have an addiction." He shot back defensively.

"That's what they all say little buddy." He said jokingly. "In the meantime I'll use this to buy us some food with this when we get there." Taku, still holding on to the addiction comment just stared at him with an annoyed expression. "Come on, you know I'm just messing around.
Izuku said, smiling.

Taku then smirked, "Yeah yeah." He said, walking past Izuku and flicking him in the forehead.

"Ow." Izuku said jokingly, not hurting from that at all.

Taku went and sat down on the couch at the front of the plane, he stretched out as he looked out the window as they soared through the blue sky. The flight attendant had collected the cards and put them away, Izuku went and sat on the end of the couch with Taku. "Yo Izu?"

Izuku turned to him, "Yeah?"

"Rhetorical question but I'm going to ask it anyway. Ever heard of a scientist named David Shield?"

Izuku smirked as his hero nerd side came to the surface, "That is a rhetorical question, of course I've heard of him. He's the man who designed all of All Might's hero costumes. He worked with All Might during his time in America after he saved him from a fire. He's one of the top scientists in the world in regards to "support" Items and quirk research, not just helping heroes but improving quality of life for people. He's even a Nobel quirk prize winner for his work." He said excitedly.

"Exactly. Long story short I met him when I first came to I-Island with grandpa a few years back. I learned a lot from him, he and grandpa have a relationship and he has a daughter who's only a few years older than us. We became friends and we talk on the phone and video chat every now and then. The point is she knows we're coming. She's a cool, smart girl and I think you'd like her."

"You're kinda talking like this girl is a potential girlfriend or something Taku."

"I'd be lying if I said I didn't find her attractive. A beautiful, smart, blonde, blue eyed, well built, well endowed, curvy american girl whose fluent in japanese sounds like a good fuck!.. But I'm getting ahead of myself. The reason I think you'll like her is that she's brilliant in a way similar to you." He said with a smirk.

Izuku was slightly confused at his words, being cryptic like this isn't out of character for Taku. He wasn't in the mood to entertain it for now so he just rolled with it. He was now eager to meet these two, "So we'll be able to meet up with them when we get there."

"Melissa knows we're coming, so that IS the plan." He said smirking while resting his hands behind his head.

Izuku looked out the window, "This would definitely be a fun trip." He thought to himself.

After some time it was alerted by the captain that the plane was now descending onto I-Island, Izuku looked out the window and could see the city on the water that seemed to come straight out of a sci-fi novel. He grew with excitement seeing the floating island that can travel anywhere in the world. A big smile stretched across his face as they got closer to the ground, eventually sliding along the runway and docking with the ther private planes. He and Taku thanked the crew for the flight, grabbed their stuff and took off into the island. As they made their way through customs, Taku decided to drop a little pop quiz on Izuku. "Yo Izu, a little trivia. Do you know why this island was invented?"

His hero nerd switch flipped on immediately, "Yep. It was created so the world's greatest minds could study quirks and invent new hero support items. The place is able to move around in order to protect the scientists from villains or any other nefarious people. The security system here is on par with the one at Tartarus prison which is why basically no one has ever committed a crime here. But it still doesn't compare to YOURS right?" He asked, smirking at Taku.

Taku smirked back, "Full marks, and Duu-hoi! You're speaking to the grandson of the man who MADE the Tartarus security system. Hell when I was thirteen grandpa challenged me to hack into Tartarus and not get caught. It took them a month to catch onto what I was doing, but it was just a scheme by gramps to convince them to pay him to upgrade it." He answered casually.

"You Fujis are SO EXTRA." Izuku said, playfully.

"Suck it Midoriya!" Taku jokingly shot back.

The two exit the airport and Izuku couldn't contain his excitement as he ran to the edge of the stairs and observed the festivities going on around him, there were attractions and demonstrations all while a voice spoke over an intercom on all that was happening on the island. "It's crazy how many people are here before the expo is open. The pictures of this place don't do it justice!" He exclaimed excitedly.

"In case you didn't know, people are allowed to use their quirks here. You know, as long as you're not hurting anyone." Taku said, finally reaching the stairs. I'm gonna text Melissa we're here, let's drop off our stuff at the hotel then swing over to see her."

"Arlight, I'm gonna text Momo we're here too, maybe all of us can get together later." He said as he pulled out his phone and texted his girl. She and her friends we're relaxing at their hotel but she'd let him know when they were going out.

"Is that All Might?" Izuku heard a feminen voice say. Looking in the direction of the voice he suddenly saw a crowd of people swarm All Might. He was surprised to see the number one hero had come out here, the talk they had yesterday was still fresh in his mind. Izuku just sweatdropped as he looked at the scene, "The price of fame." He thought to himself as they descended the stairs.

Izuku and Taku exit their hotel after dropping off their bags in the room, the sounds of the festivities were getting Izuku more excited by the moment, "Yo Izu, catch?" He said as he tossed a tiny disk at him which he caught.

Looking at what his friend just gave him, a smile spread across his face. "A Jet Board?"

Taku pressed the button on the one in his hand and a white light flashed as the tiny disk expanded into a larger one. It had a bit of an oval shape with a sharp design, the outline was golden yellow while the center for standing was black with a large button in the center. The bottom was glowing blue with a circular fan design. Putting it on the ground and allowing it to hover in place about eight inches off the ground. "As if I could come to a place like this and NOT bring my own stuff!" He exclaimed before hopping on his Jet Board and taking off, Izuku hopped on his and chased after him. The two rode across the streets to their destination, the boards have omnidirectional and zero gravity functions. They grinded on rails, rode on walls, did flips and tricks all the while avoiding hitting anyone.

They made it to a set of stairs close to a building, they got off their boards as this is where they were supposed to be meeting Melissa. Izuku could hear a bouncing spring noise coming from just beyond the stairs, he looked up just as a flash of blonde hair disappeared. After hearing the bounce again, this time the figure of a girl jumping on some kind of super pogo stick came into view. She looked to be a little older than the two of them, she landed and got off of her pogo stick and came towards them with a smile on her face, "Kon'nichiwa! It's been too long, Fujiwara!" She exclaimed, smiling as she hugged Taku.

"Melissa! How's my favorite American girl been these days?!" Taku asked as he reciprocated the hug.

"I've been really good lately, how have YOU been?" She asked with a smile.

Taku smirked at her, "You know me. Always inventing, pushing the bounds, and just enjoying the madness of science."

"She IS a crazy mistress. She said before turning to Izuku, "You must be the friend he mentioned? I'm Melissa Shield, it's nice to meet you." She extended a hand.

Izuku smiled as he shook her hand, "Izuku Midoriya, it's nice to meet you as well Melissa."

"So YOU'RE the Midoriya I've heard so much about. Fujiwara's mentioned you in our video chats."

"I'm almost hesitant to ask what he said about me." Izuku smirked looking at Taku.

"It wasn't anything bad. It mainly just boils down to you being a GOOD guy." She answered looking at Taku.

"Heeey, I appreciate that man." Izuku said as he slung an arm around Taku.

Getting Izuku off of him he tried to change the subject, "Oh look I just remembered Melissa, didn't you say you had someone else to meet up with?"

"I did actually, come on you two." She gestured to them to follow her. After a few minutes of walking a hulking figure came into view. He was tall, blonde, muscular and was wearing his latest hero costume. To the shock of both boys it was All Might, Melissa suddenly took off heading for the blue clad hero, "Uncle Might!" She exclaimed as she jumped into All Might's arms. The hero smiled as he held her up.

"Melissa! You sure have grown since the last time I saw you."

"Well I AM seventeen now, much heavier than the last time you saw me." She smiled.

"Oh really!" All Might said playfully as he easily lifted her up and down.

"Good to see you were able to escape your adoring public All Might." Taku perked up.

All Might turned in the direction of the voice to see a greenette and greynette boy approaching them. All Might recognized the green haired boy but not the other one, "Friends of your Melissa?"

Yeah they are. I just met up with them before I came to meet up with you." she answered.

"Hey All Might. I'm Takumi Fujiwara, I assume you're here to ALSO say hi to professor Shield?" Taku asked while extending a hand.

All Might kept his signature smile, "That's right. It's been a while since I've seen my old friend, and I can't turn down an invitation from Melissa."

Taku smiled, turning to the girl as brown eyes met blue, "I know the feeling."

Melissa perked up, "Fujiwara is an inventor too uncle Might, he's really smart and I can only imagine some of the things he's built since I last saw him."

Taku chuckled while rubbing his head, "You give me too much credit Melissa, My quirk just makes it easy to learn a lot of things really fast."

"I know, and you're just like Papa in that regard." She complimented.

"Thanks, your dad sets a pretty high standard." Taku replied smiling.

Izuku who had just been observing the scene, right now he had to thank the acting lessons he had done with Taku's mom. "This entire Island sets a high standard Taku. Hey All Might, I wasn't expecting to see you here. Are you here to see the expo?"

I am. It's been a while since my last visit and I'm looking forward to it!" He exclaimed, still smiling… "Have we met, young man?"

Izuku's expression was nonchalant, "Once.. But it's not worth remembering. " He then smiled, "Still, I'm looking forward to it too. It's actually my first time so I'm really excited about it."

Melissa perked up, "You'll love it Midoriya. The scientists outdo themselves every year, I hear that this year will be on a whole other level."

It will be. Especially since I'll be showing off some of my inventions." Taku said confidently.

Melissa pouted at him, "I'm still a little made you won't tell me what you're presenting."

Taku gave her a sly smirk, "Easy beautiful you'll find out tomorrow. Remember, patience is a virtue."

"That's rich coming from you." Both Izuku and Melissa said in unison.

Melissa simply shrugged as she turned and they followed her to meet her father. As they walked they talked amongst themselves all the way until they made it up a building. They walked the halls until they made it to a door where Melissa asked them to wait outside. When the door opened All Might rushed in, "I AM HERE! Flowing with emotion at our heartfelt reunion!" He exclaimed with joy.

Professor Shield's eyes went wide with surprise, "Tosh- I mean All Might. Is that really you?" He asked, clearly surprised.

All Might rushed him, laughing as he pulled him into a hug, "I came all this way to see you Dave ol buddy!"

Melissa was happy as she watched, "So Papa are you totally surprised?"

David in his shock regained his composure, "Completely astounded."

"We have Melissa to thank for this. MAN, how long has it been?!" All Might asked.

David Smiled at him, "C'mon, It's only been a couple of years. No need to make me feel old, you JERK." He said jokingly as they both shared a laugh together before doing fist bump.

Izuku and Taku stood in the doorway observing the moment between old friends, "It has been a while, huh professor?" Taku asked with a grin at the older man.

David looked past All Might to see a familiar greynette and green haired boy who looked on the verge of nerding out. David smiled upon seeing him, "Fujiwara! It's good to see you."

Taku approached the brown haired scientist, "Likewise sir. You've been doing well I hope?"

"I have. I hear you will be showing some of your inventions at the Expo this year?"

"I will be, and I've got something that I think will blow even YOUR mind…How's the Ariel Sea plane we invented together? I hear you patented it."

"I did. A working model should be on display in one of the exhibits."

"Sweet!" Taku exclaimed. He turned back to Izuku, "Yo Izu, let me introduce you to someone incredible. Professor David Shield."

Izuku's fanboy side suddenly came to the surface, "I know EXACTLY who he is! A top scientist in the world of research who won a nobel quirk prize! He was All Might's partner in America. He's a genius when it comes to costumes! All Might's Young Age, Bronze Age, Silver Age and Golden Age costumes were ALL made by him!" Izuku exclaimed. I never thought I'd actually meet him until now! Hello, I'm Izuku Midoriya, and may I shake your hand sir?"

David smiled as he took his hand, "Of course. It seems I don't have to introduce myself."

Izuku lightly chuckled with a bit of embarrassment, "Sorry about that, I'm a bit of a fanboy."

Al Might who was standing next to them suddenly coughed, Izuku caught the look in David's eyes and it was one of concern. Letting go of Izuku's hand, "Hey Melissa, why don't you show the boys around the island."

"Sure Papa, that sounds like fun." She eagerly agreed.

Izuku looked at All Might who kept his fist to his mouth, it was clear the professor was trying to get them to leave the room. He saw a faint steam start to emanate from All Might and whatever was about to happen he knew he couldn't stay to see it. Turning to Melissa, "That does sound like fun. You really don't mind Melissa?"

"No, it's fine. Let's go." She smiled as she left the room with both boys following her."

They left the building and made it back on the streets, They walked into an area that favored an amusement park, "I still can't get over the fact this place is man-made, it's insane!" Izuku said as he walked between Taku and Melissa.

"There's normal city stuff too. With just about anything you could need. The only downside is that we can't travel. Melissa said.

"It makes sense. The scientists on this island have to keep their work a secret. Any one of them could be working on something that could change the world." Taku said with his arms behind his head as they walked.

They suddenly heard a monstrous roar, they all looked up to see a huge reptilian man wearing a white coat giving them the peace sign as he walked past. "Hey, it's the Monster Hero: Godzillo! Izuku exclaimed as he chucked up his own peace sign at the hero, several people around them commented on how cool his quirk was. They approached a building that seemed to excite Melissa, "Midoriya, you've got to check out this place!" She exclaimed while pointing at the building.

Taku recognized the place, "Oh you're gonna enjoy this!" He said as he nudged his friend.

Izuku looked around and could see several heroes signing autographs before walking into the building. The moment he entered he was amazed, "I've never seen so many hero items in one place in all my life!"

"Cool right? When I first came here I spent most of my time here." Taku said as he enjoyed Izuku's amazement.

Melissa went on to show them a multi purpose vehicle that can fly as well as soar underwater, "They made some of the coloring ocean blue. I would have been a little mad at your dad if they did it otherwise." Taku smirked, admiring an invention he helped create.

She then showed them a suit that allows you to dive 7000 meters, while Izuku and Taku thought it was cool but Izuku can already do that. She then showed them a helmet that gives the wearer 360 degrees of vision using 36 sensors, both thought "So much!"

"Hey Melissa, I never asked before but are you a student at the I-Academy?" Izuku asked.

"I am, I'm a third year. She answered honestly.

"The I-Academy is where everyone who dreams of being a scientist wants to go, you must be a real genius!"

She shrugged off the praise, "Well I've still got a lot of work to do if I want to achieve my goal."

Taku looked at her, a smile on his face, "You will, in time. Before you know it your inventions will be helping heroes and by extent, people, all over."

"YOU seem to be enjoying yourself Izuku." He heard a familiar femine voice say to him from behind.

Turning around he saw Momo giving him a look with Uraraka and Jiro standing next to her. Having nothing to hide and seeing his girl he raised his hands, "Hey my love, I was wondering when I'd bump into you here. Uraraka, Jiro, it's nice to see you too."

Uraraka smiled, "It's been a while hasn't it."

Jiro kept a neutral expression, looking at Izuku while raising her earphone jacks, "I heard everything Midoriya."

"Ok "Spytech" next time just say hi." He gestured to Melissa, "This is Melissa, she's a friend of Taku's and she was showing us around.

Momo kept her expression, "Is that so?

"Yes. It is Yaoyorozu. Taku said, looking at her.

Melissa, who was slightly confused at the tension, asked Izuku what was up. "Midoriya, who are these girls?"

"Oh, the tall one is my girlfriend and the other two are her friends."

After some time goes by they all decide to get some tea at a nearby cafe. The girls all sat at a table while the boys sat at a table by themselves. So you all actually did hero work, like in the field?

"I just helped with evacuations during mine." Jiro said.

"I actually spent most of it training, but I did learn a bit." Momo said, holding her right cheek.

Melissa lit up, "That still sounds amazing. You'll be great heroes one day!"

Momo blushed slightly at her words, "Thank you so much, we'll certainly do our best."

Taku and Izuku sat at their table as they listened to the girls, "They seem to be hitting it off well." Izuku said.

"I'm not surprised. Melissa's good company after all." Taku responded.

"Here's your drink sir." A charismatic male voice came as his blue drink was placed on the table. Turning to his waiter Izuku saw that it was a blonde haired boy around his age with a lightning bolt in his hair. And standing next to him was a familiar purple ball haired midget. "Mineta?" He said looking at the short teen slightly surprised. The saying of his name made the girls turn to Izuku and Taku's table.

Looking up he saw the greenete who called his name, "Hey Midoriya! Been a while huh?!" He smiled trying to look cool.

"Kaminari?" Jiro said in acknowledgment of her classmate.

"Yo." The blonde boy said, saluting his right middle and index fingers at the girls.

"Are these two your classmates?" Melissa asked Momo.

"They are." Momo smiled as she answered truthfully.

Izuku looked at the blonde, "I saw you in the sports festival, Kaminari right?"

"That's me, always nice to meet a fan." He smiled confidently.

"I'm Izuku Midoriya. I helped some of your classmates train for the festival, unfortunately you and I didn't meet back then."

Kaminari's eyes widened upon hearing his name, "Wait, YOU'RE Midoriya?!" He asked in shock.

"That's me. I'm assuming Momo and some of your classmates mentioned me?"

The electric teen had a sly grin as he slung an arm around Izuku, "Dude you gotta tell me how you scored a solid ten like Yaoyorozu!"

Izuku lightly chuckled, "By being her friend first I guess.. You two got jobs on the island. I assume it's to make some cash during the expo?"

Mineta raised a finger as he smirked, "Your part right. With a free trip to the island we can make some good money on top of being able to check out the expo on our breaks. And the best part is there's a chance to have romantic encounters with some gorgeous beauties." He looked at the girls sitting at the other table one by one when his eyes landed on Melissa, "I THINK I'M IN LOVE!" He exclaimed in a low voice. He huddled up with Izuku and Kaminari, "Midoriya, who's that blonde bombshell? You already have Yaoyorozu, be a pal and introduce us would ya?" He asked, slightly pervy.

"Um, I just met her today. If you want a hook up you should ask him." He said pointing a thumb at Taku who was just observing the scene.

Both boys immediately rushed to Taku, "Hey bro, mind introducing us to your hot friend?" Kaminari asked with a sly smile.

Taku gave a sly smile of his own, "Sure." He answered in a high pitch tone. "But you're a little late to the party boys." He said in a low voice only audible to the four boys. Implying he was first in line.

"WHY ARE YOU TWO SLACKING OFF!" A voice suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone turned in the direction of the voice to see Iida speeding towards them, he blitzed behind Kaminari and Mineta pulling them away from Taku. "You two wanted to make money but you don't want to work for it! This is very unbecoming of future heroes!" He scolded them as he chopped his hands like a robot.

You came here too, Iida?" Uraraka asked.

He turned to face the others, "I come from a long line of heroes, so it's only natural we receive an invitation. But my family was busy, so it's just me."

"I was wondering if you'd be here. I was invited for winning the sports festival, plus my father is a shareholder in several of the sponsorship companies." Momo said.

"Thanks to both those things she had enough tickets for all the girls." Jiro added.

"The others are here too?" Iida asked.

"Yeah, they're checking out the attractions, we'll bump into them eventually." Said Uraraka.

They all suddenly heard a loud explosion in the distance, the sudden sound put Izuku on alert for a moment as he didn't sense it beforehand. "Was that a bomb?" He asked as he looked in the direction of the sound.

Melissa perked up with a smile, "I'm pretty sure I know what that is."

Moments later they were at the villain course attraction. Izuku had run ahead of the others and made it to the seating section overlooking the platform. "33 seconds! He's in eighth place!" The hero announcer yelled out.

Izuku looked at the screens of the course, the dust cleared to reveal the spiky red hair and rock hard body of Kirishima. "Kirishima!" The others had caught up with him and they saw their classmate on the screens as well.

"So I'm guessing he goes to U.A as well?" Melissa asked Uraraka.

"Yep, that's one of our classmates alright."

"Let's welcome our next challenger!" The announcer proclaimed.

Izuku looked down from the railing and was surprised to see a familiar head of spiky ash blonde hair. "Bakugo?"

Taku huffed in annoyance as he looked down and saw him, "Aw damn it. And here I was hoping I'd never have to see him again."

"The villain attack course has been reset. Ready..Go!" The moment these words were uttered Bakugo blasted himself forward with an explosion. He propelled himself forward until he reached his targets and began to destroy them one after another, all the while screaming "DIE!" Much to Izuku's annoyance.

"Incredible! He jumps to first place with a time of 15 seconds!"

Bakugo lands at the start with a confident grin and begins to head towards the exit when Kirishima spoke up, "Hey is that Yaoyorozu? And is that..Midoriya! How have you been, man?!" Kirishima asked excitedly while just seeing the nerd infuriated Bakugo who blasted himself towards the railing.

"What the hell are you doing here DEKU!" He yelled.

"Why are you yelling at me? I can hear you just fine if you ask like a normal person." Izuku said calmly.

Taku's face shifted to an annoyed one, "I see the professional asshole hasn't changed a bit." He said, with arms crossed.

His gaze shifted to the greynette, "Oh hell no why the hell are you here?!" He yelled again.

"I'm presenting some of my inventions at the expo. Genius recognizes genuis dumb-dumb." He said mockingly.

As Bakugo began to argue with Taku, Momo leaned over the rails to speak with Kirishima. "So Kirishima, you two got asked to the expo as well?"

"Don't ask me how but my dad was able to hook me up with two tickets, so I decided to bring Bakugo with me. You guys gonna do this villain course of what?"

Izuku registered his words, "Hm, it does look like fun. I'll give it a shot!" He said excitedly.

Bakugo upon hearing his words broke away from his arguing with Taku, "Don't bother! There's no way a quirkless loser like you will get a better score than I did!"

"Well I won't know anything until I try now will I." He answered calmly which only seemed to infuriate the blonde.

Bakugo's quirkless statement didn't go unnoticed by Melissa who's eyes widened in shock. "Just take you pathetic turn you damned nerd, THEN YOU GET OUT OF HERE!" He roared in Izuku's face, who was completely unbothered by his aggression.

After signing up Izuku made his way to the starting platform, Melissa had her eyes on him as he prepared for his turn. "Fujiwara?"

Taku turned to her, "Yeah."

"Is it really true that he's quirkless?"

Taku smirked as he turned from her to look back at Izuku, "He is.. Don't let what that asshole said bother you. He's not sorry about it at all and that's just who he is. But keep your eyes on Izuku, he's about to surprise you." Melissa took in his words and faced the course.

"We've got a challenger coming in at the last minute, what kind of score will he get?!" Izuku did some light stretching as she spoke, "Ready..Go!" In a flash of speed Izuku took off, moving as a blur across the course. He punched, kicked and sliced robots in half with chops before finishing the final robot with a flying kick. "Unbelievable! With a time of 7 seconds this young man just climbed to the top of the pack!" The announcer exclaimed.

Izuku landed back at the starting point, all eyes were on him as he just beat the best time by more than half. Melissa's eyes were wide with shock, he cleared it so fast she could barely register it. Many thoughts were going through her head as Izuku left the stage, "Such speed, and that destructive power. It's the same as Uncle Might… But if he's quirkless how is that possible?"

"Mind blown yet Melissa?" Taku asked her with a sly grin, snapping her out of her thoughts.

She looked her friend in the eyes, "I'm so confused right now."

"That's a normal reaction." He said with a smile.

Kirishima put a hand behind his head, "Man, I can't believe he beat that twice as fast as Bakugo."

"I can." Momo stated bluntly.

The blonde in question was giving Izuku a look that could kill many times over. Izuku leaped at the railing and used his right hand to vault himself over it, all began to congratulate him, " That was a fine showing Midoriya." Iida said with a chop.

Uraraka had a bubbly grin, "Wow! That was awesome."

"Thanks. I wasn't expecting something like this when I first came out here, I-Island is looking to be more fun than I thought." He said with a grin.

"You were a total blur man! You were so fast it was like I blinked and it was over.. Hey if you don't mind, when we get home can you train with me again?" Kirishima asked.

"I'd like that as well." Iida added.

"Sure, I don't mind." He answered with a genuine smile.

Momo held his arm, her ample breast squishing against him, "I'd expect nothing less my love. I take it you didn't want to push it too hard?" She asked with a smile.

The feeling of Momo's boobs was always heavenly, Izuku managed to keep his composure as he gave her a charming grin. "Nah, it was just a little fun."

"DEKU!" Bakugo roared as he shoved past everyone to get to Izuku. "What the hell are you playing at HUH?!" He growled.

Izuku had a neutral expression, "Pretty sure the game was to destroy the robots as fast as you can. And stop growling, what are you a dog?"

Bakugo became even angrier as he glared at him, "You know what I mean nerd! You can't just come in here and SHOW ME UP!"

"Will you shut up already?" Taku said, standing next to Melissa clearly annoyed with the other blonde.

Izuku simply rolled his eyes, "I was just having some fun. Contrary to how things work in YOUR head, competing with you is the furthest thing from my mind." He said calmly. Bakugo grit his teeth and was about to argue when suddenly they heard a loud noise coming from the course, looking to see that the entire stage was covered in a massive wave of ice.

"And at 14 seconds this young one takes second place!" The announcer said.

Looking at the cameras everyone saw that it was Todoroki. "Todoroki as well?" Iida said in seeing his classmate.

Bakugo was pissed at having been beaten by another person, let alone one of his classmates. He blasts from the stands towards the heterochromatic boy, "ICY-HOT BASTARD!"

Todoroki looked to see him coming, "Bakugo." He said in acknowledgement.

"What the hell are you doing here bastard?!"

"My father received an invitation. He was busy so I'm representing him." He answered calmly. Looking out at the stands he saw a few familiar faces, "I see the others are here."

"Don't ignore me!"

Iida ran out as Bakugo seemed to be more aggressive, telling him to stop or he'll tarnish U.A's name. All cameras were on the ash blonde as he screamed with Kirishima and Iida trying to calm him down. The girls just sighed at the scene while Izuku and Taku just shook their heads, "What, an ASS!" Taku said.

"Some things never change after all." Izuku said with a small smile.

The day went on with most of the group exploring the island together, the sun had begun to set so they all decided it was time to start to get ready for the party tonight. Izuku, Taku, Melissa, Momo, Jiro, Uraraka and Iida all returned to the cafe to see a slumped together Kaminari and Minetta, both clearly exhausted from working. Izuku raised an eyebrow and he smirked at them, "Come on guys. Work couldn't have been THAT bad could it?"

"Show us some mercy Midoriya." Kaminari complained.

"You don't get it! The struggle is REAL out here!" Minetta exclaimed.

Melissa approached the boys, "Well.. Here's a taste of benevolence." She smiled as she handed them two tickets to the party tonight.

Both boys' eyes went wide, "Wait, are those-" Kaminari began.

"Melissa decided to take pity on you guys." Jiro said with a smirk.

Tears began to well up in the eyes of both boys, "A beautiful angel has gifted us!" Both exclaimed with joy while hugging each other.

Iida faced the group, "Well now that that's been taken care of, I suggest this be the time for all of us to prepare for tonight's party. We'll meet in the lobby at a designated time. I will inform the others and relay this information." With a chop he turned and speeded off.

Izuku chuckled lightly upon seeing Iida take off, "Is he always at full throttle?"

"Pretty much." Uraraka answered.

The group broke off into different directions heading to their respective hotels when Melissa called out to Izuku. "Hey Midoriya, do you have a minute?"

Izuku looked at Taku who knew what she wanted to talk about, and he gave him a nod. "It's fine, I'm going to rest up and get ready for tonight, see you two later.

Izuku and Melissa walked together, they walked and talked until they made it to their destination, the I-Academy. Izuku takes in his surroundings as they go up an elevator. Exiting it they head down a hallway before Melissa stops at a door, "I take it this is your Workshop?"

"That's right." She answered as she opened the door and went in. "Sorry about the mess?" She entered another room and Izuku looked around at her workspace. It may have been a little messy but he was impressed by how professional it looked.

Looking to a section of the room he saw that she had a good handful of trophies on a shelf, "You're pretty talented. You've got a fair bit of trophies here."

"Thanks. But to be honest a while ago I wasn't getting good grades, that's why I studied so hard. I want to be a hero no matter what."

"A hero huh. You mean like a pro?"

"No. I let that dream go early, I'm quirkless after all." She said casually.

Izuku registered her words and what Taku said on the plane immediately clicked in his head. He wasn't expecting for Melissa to be quirkless just like he was. It's 20 percent of the global population so the chances of meeting another quirkless person let alone one around the same age as him was rare. Just like meeting Koga the other day was rare. " That must have been tough.. Not being like everyone else?"

She came back into the room, "I'll admit I was sad at first… When I was five and didn't have a quirk while everyone around me did, it was shocking, even more so when they said I'd never get one."

"Hm, join the club." He said gently, giving her a warm smile.

Melissa gave him a smile, "You know what it's like too don't you?"

"Yeah. I wanted to be a hero the first time I ever watched All Might's debut. Now that I think back on it my doctor was very blunt about it not happening when he diagnosed me." He said, holding a finger to his chin.

Melissa turned to photos on her shelf, "It was rough at times. I'm thankful I had my father. Luckily I had a dream very close to my heart, to be a scientist just like him… He didn't have a quirk that would allow him to be a hero, so through science he's able to help people. Supporting Uncle Might and other heroes to fight for peace. Even if it is indirectly… That's how I want to be a hero." Izuku looked at her and he could see the passion in her eyes, it couldn't help but warm his heart.

"Now I see what Taku meant when he said we'd get along. We're a bit alike Melissa."

"How so?"

Neither of us have quirks but in spite of that we strive to our respective high standard goals."

Melissa took in his words, she remembers seeing him in the villain course and wanted to speak to him about it. "Midoriya, I was surprised when I found out you were quirkless. What you did in the villain course was incredible. How did you do it?"

"That's no big secret, I merely trained." He answered casually.

Melissa was shocked at his answer, "What! You're saying you can move THAT fast and be THAT strong just by training?"

"Yes. as hard as it may be to believe, the human body is capable of incredible things. Many have forgotten that in a world of quirks."

"Are you training to be a hero? I can only imagine how hard you must've worked to become so strong."

"Most of my life being a hero was my only goal.. I didn't want or have a plan B because I knew I could do it.. I've heard it my whole life, "You can't be a hero without a quirk". My peers, teachers and even heroes told me that I should give up and have a realistic goal. I applied to U.A and several other schools who all wouldn't even let me take their entrance exam because I was quirkless." His words made Melissa cringe a bit. "That blatant discrimation tore me apart, but thanks to my masters guidance and years of mental training I was able to let it go and move on. I have new goals to strive for, and by achieving them I'll be able to help a lot of people." He said, hi smile returning.

Meissa could feel the hurt in his words, he's been through a lot, far more than her. "Do you resent them for any of it?" She asked warmly.

"I've accepted their ignorance, but a part of me will never fully forgive it."

She registered his words and nodded her head. The two went on to talk for a while longer, talking about their lives and past experiences, the two really DID have a lot in common. Looking out the window they saw that it was dark outside so Izuku bolted to get ready for the party. Izuku get's back to the hotel to see Taku heading out to the party, he was wearing a black suit with black loafers, a light gray dress shirt and cream colored tie. He told the greenette not to rush and to get himself sharp. Taku makes his way to the party, he arrives and sees Iida wearing a blue suit, Todoroki in a white suit, Mineta and Kaminari wearing their work clothes already there waiting. "Fujiwara, I'm glad to see you made it on time." He said with a chop.

"I like to be on time. It looks like we beat the ladies here, ten bucks says it'll take them a while to get here." He joked.

"I'm just looking to see what awesome dresses the girls will wear when they get here." Kaminari said with an excited grin.

"Knowing Yaoyorozu the way I do, what she's wearing will definitely be enchanting." Taku said.

The boys talked amongst themselves as they waited, Iida was getting frustrated as no one had arrived on time. After a while the girls arrived. It was Momo, Uraraka and Jiro. Momo wore an enchanting light green dress with a gold choker necklace and a hair ornament that made her ponytail stand up. Jiro wore a black jacket over a skirt-dress with a purple top and pink skirt with gray leggings and pink shoes, she also had a pink flower ornament in her hair. Uraraka was wearing a white and pink dress-skirt with black leggings and dark pink shoes.

"JACKPOT!" Kaminari and Minetta yelled out.

"You three look incredible. Very beautiful." Taku said giving his honest opinion with Todoroki nodding in agreement.

Momo apologized for the tardiness as Jiro was feeling a bit shy. She approached Taku, having noticed her boyfriend wasn't here. "Fujiwara, where is Izuku?" She asked curiously.

"When I was heading out he was just coming in. He was hanging out with Melissa and I guess time got away from him. I told him not to rush and get fresh, but you know him, he'll probably burst in here any minute." Momo smiled knowing he was right.

The door opened and in came Melissa. She was wearing a dress skirt with a sleeveless blue top, light blue skirt with a white flower on her waist. Her hair was styled in a ponytail with a blue ribbon. "Sorry I'm late. I kinda forgot about the time, I was afraid I'd missed you guys."

Everyone looked at her, "In this place of beauty in walks cutie, Hellooo! Melissa!" Taka flirted, smirking while gripping his chin.

She blushed slightly at Taku's words, "Stop, you're embarrassing me Fujiwara." She said bashfully. "It's good to see everyone is ready for the party. Wait, I thought you had more friends joining us?" She asked, looking at the girls.

Momo answered, "Unfortunately one of our friends came down with something." Momo said as she closed her eyes and put a hand to her cheek thinking about Hagakure.

"We thought about bailing on the party tonight but she told us to go. Our two other friends stayed with her though. Jiro added.

"I'm sorry to hear that, I hope she feels better." Melissa said sincerely.

"Well it looks like all we're waiting for is for Izuku to arrive, I'm going to head upstairs now. I'll catch up with you guys later." Taku said before heading for the emergency stairs.

Todoroki was surprised, "You're not going to take the elevator?"

"The stairs are always faster than the elevator." He answered before cocking his head back before opening the stairwell, "Save me a dance Melissa?"

The blonde smiled at him, "You bet." She answered honestly.

Taku chuckled lightly, "I'm gonna hold you to that." He enters the stairwell and heads upstairs.

Taku made his way up the stairs, he got out after heading up a few floors and stepped out to see that he was on the upper floor of the reception hall. "Hm, looks like I went too high up." He says casually before walking to the balcony, he looks down to see people below, several heroes, scientists he recognized and many other people dressed in fine clothes. People were eating from the spread of gourmet food prepared and talking amongst each other. He saw All Might standing next to David Shield, they were both talking to people when a man in a suit stepped on a podium and asked All Might to come up and say some words. Taku leaned on the railing as the symbol of peace was basically goated by the clapping crowd to step up and speak. Champagne glass in hand he stood before the crowd, Taku's eyes narrowed as the screen behind him suddenly went red with "EMERGENCY" lit up across it and an alarm began to go off.

At the hotel

Izuku had finished dressing and he was about to head out when The screen of his TV suddenly showed an emergency alert. "What the-"

"This is the I-Island Security system, we have detected a powerful explosive device hidden somewhere on the I-Expo grounds. We are going into an emergency lockdown. Your safety is our top priority so we ask that all residents as well as tourists get to a safe place and wait for further instructions. Anyone on the streets in the next ten minutes will be in violation of the law and treated as violent criminals. .

"Well that's happening." Izuku said skeptically

Back at the tower

Taku looked down as the elevator to the reception hall opened up and saw multiple men wearing masks and carrying guns burst in. There was one of them who was tall, bulky and wearing a white coat with a mask that looked like wrapped metal. He was clearly the leader of these guys, "In case you haven't caught on, the security system is controlled by us now. There are a lot of heroes here but if you decide to make a scene." He presses a button and the screens around the room show several camera angles of places around the island with people surrounded by security sentries. "I'll make sure the security sentries treat all the civilians in front of them as dangerous criminals. So.. I suggest you play nicely, because everyone on this island is our hostage. Naturally that includes all of you." He put a hand to his ear, clearly touching an ear piece, "Do it." The moment these words were uttered circular dots formed on the floor before each hero, emitting a blue light and shooting out binds made of energy that Wrap around and restrain all of them including All Might.

All Might was shocked by the sudden restraints but wasn't worried at all as he attempted to tear out of them. The boss fired a shot in the air stopping All Might from breaking free, "Don't even think about it. If you take so much as a step I'll kill everyone in this room." He said threateningly as he pointed his gun to the crowd.

"Villain!" All Might stated before he was kicked to the ground, bound in restraints.

"I suggest you all be good and follow All Might's example." He said to the whole room while waving his gun.

Back on the balcony Taku had slipped out of sight, "Damn it. Of course this happens when I don't have any gadgets on me. Definitely gotta rethink those cybernetic modifications I talked about with grampa. But he was like "NOO Takumi you're still growing". He thought in a mocking voice. He picked up his phone and saw that the Wi-Fi and the service for the island had gone down, "Bastards are really serious about this. However." He thought as he switched and connected to his family's server and was back online then called Izuku, hopefully this situation made him suit up.

Back at the hotel Izuku was pondering the alert he just heard that repeated itself several times before stopping. "A bomb on the island.. In the same place as the party tonight, and NOW of all times… Something's not right about this. Still, I can't ignore it, Taku and the others are there." He went to the app on his smart watch and got into his Beta suit. He was about to take off over the balcony when suddenly he got a call on his hero phone, non-surprisingly it was Taku. "Hey man, what's going on?"

Taku in a hiding spot, "Good I was hoping this would make you want to put on your costume, my phone and your hero phone are the only working cells on this whole island. Listen up, we've got ONE of those situations here bro."

"So the bomb threat is real?"

"Bomb? No, that's probably just a ruse. Villains have taken over the security system, they're basically holding everyone on the island hostage. I'm on the floor overlooking the reception, These guys are loaded with guns and even All Might is in a tight spot. It's a full hostage situation here" He said in a low voice.

"Do we know what these guys want?!"

"Not yet, but they just took away Professor Shield and his assistant."

"I'll be there in a flash, Intech."

"The others never came up so they're probably still down stairs. I'll rally with them then go from there."

"Alright, be safe." ONE said before hanging up. He looked at the giant tower and narrowed his eyes, unable to shake the feeling of confusion. "Why would anyone, HOW could anyone do this here?" He thought to himself. He vibrated and became invisible then Jumped from his balcony, he Sky Walked to his destination all while pondering the motive of the villains. He was certain of two things. ONE, this was an inside job. And TWO, they were after something, something only professor Shield can provide.

Taku heads down the stairwell back to the entrance, he sees the others as well as blast shields over the windows. The other saw the look on his face when he came out, "We got trouble." He said in a serious tone that put everyone on edge as they looked at him.

An invisible ONE made it to the tower where the party was being held. On the outside he could see that every window was covered with blast shields with every building looking the same, he could see the security sentries patrolling the area. ONE landed and looked at the scene around him, thoughts going through his head. "To think villains could actually hijack the security system like this… Gotta move fast!" He vibrated his body and phased through the shield covered door. He was surprised as he slowly made it to the other side, looking at the empty entrance where he would have met up with the others he looked back at the entrance, "That metal's weird to phase through, the hell's that made of?" He thought as he turned to the door leading to the stairwell. "Now to find the others."

In the stairwell

Taku had given everyone the details of what was going down. Momo, Jiro and Taku had gone to see for themselves. Momo got All Might's attention and allowed him to read her lips while Jiro listened to his instructions, confirming everything Taku had said and telling them to find somewhere to hide. They returned to the stairwell and regrouped with the others. "We have All Might's instructions. He's our teacher, so we should leave it to the pros." Iida said.

Everyone took in his words with many of them making their own decisions of what they should do. There was a long pause before Todoroki spoke, "Is it really right to leave things like this?" These words caused everyone to look at him, "We're training to be heroes aren't we? Plus we're capable of helping."

"I understand how you feel Todoroki but the fact is we're still students. We can't fight these villains without our hero licenses. "Ururaka said.

Momo listened to what her classmate said and she couldn't help but think "What would ONE do?" If Izuku were here, hell he's probably on the way, he would definitely help All Might without an ounce of hesitation." She thought to herself. "I'm not so sure." Everyone turned to her as she spoke. "Every one of the pro heroes are stuck in a precarious situation, but WE have a chance to DO something. I can't speak for the rest of you, but I'm not comfortable leaving it to chance."

Iida narrowed his eyes, "What are you saying Yaoyorozu? We're not certified to handle this situation!" He lightly exclaimed.

"I hear what you're saying, Iida. But I feel that this is a situation in which if we don't, then WHO will?" She said with conviction.

That's definitely the mindset of a hero." Came a voice out of nowhere that startled everyone.

Both Taku and Momo recognized the voice but it put the others on edge, they all prepared for a fight. It seemed to come from the bottom of the stairs, looking down they could see ONE making his way up. "Hello there." he said calmly as he smiled charmingly when reaching the top and facing the group.

"ONE!" Mineta cried out."

"I had a feeling something wasn't right in the emergency broadcast, seems I was right."

"When did you get here? We should have heard you coming up the stairs." Todoroki rationed.

ONE smirked, "I actually just got here. And It's called Silent Movement, a difficult to learn but useful technique."

Melissa, seeing that everyone was surprised and seemed familiar with this hero, leaned towards Uraraka, "Um, who is he?" she whispered.

"He's a vigilante from back home." The brunette responded.

"A vigilante?" Melissa said, surprised as she observed him. She had heard about all the craziness that had happened in Japan these past few months. From what information she could find it involved a vigilante clad in green, and she was standing before him apparently.

"Why are you even here?! Iida exclaimed.

"Well I THOUGHT I was attending a party in this building tonight. When I suddenly get an alert that there was a bomb on the premisise. When on my way over here I see blast shields covering every building on the island, I got a little curious. So.. It's as bad as I thought… No worries, Because I GOT THIS." He said with confidence as he gave an assuring smile.

There was a silence once these words were uttered. Kaminari looked at him stunned, while Todoroki kept his natural unreadable expression. "ONE, has anyone told you that that's a terrible catchphrase?" Todoroki asked casually.

"Seriously dude." Kaminari added.

"Cut him some slack you two, I think it's cool." Momo said, hiding that she was actually defending her boyfriend. She admittedly thought it was bad at first but it had slowly grown on her.

ONE's smile didn't falter as he chuckled lightly, "I'd be lying if I didn't say SOME people think it's lame, but they're outnumbered by the ones who like and find comfort in it. So I'm OWNING IT! He exclaimed confidently.

ONE was suddenly approached by Iida, "ONE." He said before suddenly bowing his head. "Thank you for saving my brother in Hosu, I can't put it into words how grateful I am."

ONE took in his words, "So you're Ingenium's brother. There's no need for thanks, I was just being a hero. Is he doing well? I heard it looked worse than it was."

Iida raised his head and faced the Illegal hero, "He's in good spirits. Unfortunately he was paralyzed from the waist down, but doctors are confident that with rehabilitation he will walk again. He can never be a hero again so he asked me to take up the mantle of Ingenium as his successor."

ONE smiled, "Hm, that's good to hear… "Now, where are we on the situation here?"

Melissa stepped forward, "The villains have taken over the security system. The heroes are restrained by security measures in the reception hall. If we can get control of that we can free all the heroes and undo the chaos."

"Where's the control room?" He asked the blonde.

"It's on the 200th floor." She answered.

ONE took in her words and thought out loud, "Take back the system and the heroes will take down the villains in an instant… Hm, I'm not against the challenge because I'm sure I could do it, but the security system is on par with the one at Tartarus prison right? I'd rather get THAT back online before taking down the villains."

"What happened to "I GOT THIS"? Plus I heard you had good hacking skills ONE." Taku said slyly.

"I do, and I am. But getting into a system equal to Tartarus may be one level outside my current skill set. Again, I can do it but it would take time. I don't suppose any of you would be more capable?" He asked, acting as if that question wasn't directed at Taku.

"Well if you're gonna twist my arm." Taku said as he stood up. "I can do it." He said confidently.

"Are you sure?" He asked, seeming ignorant.

"Of course. My grandpa built the Tartarus system and I can get in that in no time at all. This'll be cake."

Fine, you're with me. We'll stop these villains and take back the system." ONE said confidently clenching his fist.

"I'm coming with you." Todoroki declared.

"Me as well." Momo added.

The resolve of the others seemed to be strengthened with the two stepping up to join ONE. "I'm coming too, I want to help All Might." Uraraka perked up.

"Guess I'll come along, looks like it's time to be heroes." Kaminari said slyly.

"Jamingway has a point, I'm coming too." Jiro said.

Iida grit his teeth, his instincts were telling him to follow his teachers orders and not get involved, but his classmates were going to do this with or without him. "Fine, I'll join you. But I'm pulling you all out at the first sign of danger.

Jiro raised an eyebrow, "We're facing villains here, danger kinda comes with the territory."

"All the more reason why we shouldn't get involved! C'mon we got ONE here, that's als good as having All Might!" Mineta exclaimed, clearly frightened by the prospect of facing was surprised at hearing his words.

ONE Looked around at the conviction of everyone around him. These future heroes are ready to step up and save the island, it would be a great experience… Some other time. "Hey everyone, as much as I love your enthusiasm, time is a bit of a factor here. Having too many people would only slow things down, I can get to the top in no time, so I can't bring more people than needed." He said with sincerity, sorry to keep those who want to fight out of the mix.

Most of them sighed in acceptance, knowing he was right. Melissa, who had just been observing, clenched her fist and stepped up. "I want to come with you."

"Who are you, miss?" He asked, sounding ignorant of who she was.

"I'm Melissa Shield. I may not be much of a fighter but I know the building and can help Fujiwara get the system back on. The villains took my father, I want to help in any way I can to rescue him."

The look in her eyes said all ONE needed to know, "Fine, we'll need you when the time comes so stay close to me. We'll save your father and everyone else. I promise." He smiled as he faced the others, "Lets GO!"

All Might layed on the floor bound in restraints, steam emitted from him as the frustration of this situation built within him. He couldn't possibly break out of these fast enough before one of the gunmen around the room killed someone, they had taken Dave and his assistant away for whatever reason and this situation was just bad. Even if he could take down the villains, they had control of the security system, effectively threatening every person on the island. He told his students to hide and his brain was firing on all cylinders with no reliable ideas of how to get out of this. He was the symbol of peace, HE WAS HERE, he should be able to stop these villains. Glancing upwards his eyes widen in shock at who he ses, "ONE!" He thought to himself in disbelief. The vigilante smiled an assuring smile that things would be ok. His mouth formed words before he turned and left, a sense of relief washed over All Might after having read the vigilante's lips. "I. GOT. THIS."

All Might's signature smile formed on his lips as he continued to maintain his muscle form, "I guess I can rest easy a bit. It's only a matter of time before this villainy is undone.. ONE.. Be the hero and save us… I know you can do it." He thought to himself, knowing he would succeed.

Using Melissa's knowledge of the building, she along with ONE, Taku and Momo headed up the emergency stairs. ONE carried Taku on his back while Momo carried Melissa. Momo had trouble keeping up with ONE while carrying the blonde who apologized, but Momo shrugged it off as not a problem. They made it to the 80th floor in no time at all, as ONE rounded the corner to jump up another flight of stairs he saw the stairway was blocked off, he let Taku off his back just as Momo and Melissa arrived. "The villains put up a barrier?" Momo said in surprise after seeing it.

"It looks that way." Taku said nonchalantly.

"Do you think they know we're in here?" Melissa asked.

"I doubt it. This just looks like a precaution, in case any heroes they missed made it up to block them off." He looks to the door to exit the stairs, "Or.. Maybe they want us to leave the stairwell." He thought to himself before turning to Melissa. "Melissa, what exactly is on this floor?" ONE asked.

"The plant factory. The scientists research the effect quirks have on different types of fauna."

Taku perked up, "Oh yeah I've been in there. It's basically a big green house surrounded by a research facility with an elevator in the center."

"I assume for authorized use only?" ONE speculated.

"That's right." She answered, saddened.

"So even if we could get to it we can't use it." Momo said, slightly annoyed.

"It doesn't matter. I don't think they know we're in here but let's try to keep the element of surprise as much as we can. Melissa, Fujiwara, hold on to me?" He asked as he extended both his hands.

Taku knew what he was thinking as he grabbed his right arm with both hands with Melissa following his lead. ONE began to vibrate his body causing them both to feel strange as he walked up the stairs towards the wall blocking the stairs. Taku played surprised while Melissa was ACTUALLY surprised when ONE's body phased through the wall with him still holding onto her and Fujiwara. They held onto him and kept walking until they too began to phase through the wall as if they were ghosts, making it to the other side they let go of ONE and the vibrating feeling stopped. Melissa looked at her hands, in utter disbelief at what had just happened, ONE, what exactly IS your quirk?"

"Not important." He answered casually before phasing back through the wall.

"Fujiwara. Seriously, who is he?"

"A hero." He answered casually.

A moment later ONE came back through the wall with Momo holding his hand. "Let's keep moving."

"I'm sorry. But ONE, who are you?" Melissa asked.

"I'm a hero. I would have thought that was obvious Melissa." He said with a smile.

"I mean about you being a vigilante. Minetta said you're as good as All Might, and I know about the things happening in Japan recently. You're the hero in green right?"

"That's me."

"Melissa, you seem to be making something out of nothing. Whether he has a license or not it doesn't change the fact that THIS guy is indisputably one of the most effective heroes in Japan right now. And between you and me, I'd take him over All Might."

"Melissa, my status may be complicated. But I assure you, I'm just a guy who wants to use his abilities to help people. Just like I'm trying to do now… Any questions you have I'll answer them later, but for now we have to keep going. ONE said before putting Fujiwara on his back and heading up the stairs with Momo and Melissa following. "Hey Melissa I'm curious, what exactly are these blast shields made of? I had a slightly harder time phasing through them than most things."

"They're meant to be reliable, so they're made from a metallic alloy specifically made by the scientists here."

"Talk about enginuity!" Taku jokes.

They made it to the 130th floor, it was the top of the stairs so they had to get out. Not wanting to alert the villains or trigger an alarm ONE phased everyone through the door leading to some kind of laboratory. "This floor is relatively straight, if we cut across to the other side we can take the next stair up higher. Melissa stated as they crossed.

An alarm suddenly went off and security sentry's filled the area,"Looks like they're onto us." ONE said as he let Taku off his back and took his stance. In a flash of speed ONE appeared behind the army of robots who all exploded into a bunch of scrap metal, astounding the blonde haired girl.

They continued on their way and made it to the 138th floor where they had to pass through the server room, as they were passing the door at the end of the hall opened up revealing another army of security sentries. "Looks like we're doing this again. Taku stated.

Momo stepped up, "You all go on ahead. Find a different route. This is most likely a ploy to stall for time and they'll just keep sending them our way. I'll hold them off here, draw their attention and catch up later." she said as she created a katana from her hand.

Momo, are you sure?" Melissa asked, concerned."

Momo looked at the blonde and smiled, "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."

ONE smiled, "Don't worry Melissa, I can see she's got this. Yaoyorozu, don't take too long." He said as he took off in the opposite direction.

"Ok. Just remember NOT to damage these servers, it could affect the security system." Melissa told the creation teen as she followed ONE and Fujiwara.

"Understood." Momo said as she rushed the robots and began slicing them to pieces one after another as they left. They headed up a few more floors and exited the stairs to a rooftop with a large building on the other side, all around them there were fans. "Now where are we? ONE asked.

"The wind power generator. There are surely other robots on the floors waiting for us, but if we get to the top from here we can avoid them." She pointed upward, "There's an emergency entrance right there."

Both males looked in the direction of where she pointed and could see the door at the end of the bridge that connected the two buildings. "That's pretty high up." Taku stated.

"Not too high for me to reach."

"Wait what? Melissa asked as ONE scooped up both teens in his arms and leaped into the air before landing in front of the door.

In the control room the villains are monitoring what's going on in the building. Everyone is still trapped in the reception hall, two boys seemed to be lost just wandering the halls. They weren't a threat so they ignored them. Had it not been for them they may not have noticed the hero and the kids, but they were already so far up and left one to deal with the security sentries, who to their shock was cutting them to pieces like paper. They had called the boss and told him what was up, they still controlled the system so everything was going according to plan. He decided to leave the reception hall and come up.

One villain was sitting at the control panel while another stood over his shoulder, "The boss is on his way up. You having any luck finding that hero?"

"The girl in the server room is still cutting down robots and it looks like they slipped in here from somewhere else. They're almost up here, we have to go deal with them." The villain said sternly.

"Tch, damn it all… Let's go!" The other villain exclaimed as they both left the control room.

The three headed up the stairs with ONE leading the way, he wasn't carrying either of them and they were struggling to keep up with him. They came in on the 195 floor, they made it up three floors. As ONE rounded the corner he saw a flash of metal coming at him, he used his left hand to parry the attack which was a villain thrusting his bladed right arm at him. "You picked the wrong place to try and be a hero!" The villain exclaimed threateningly.

"A hero never choses when and where they fight. Tell me why you criminals are doing this?!"

"Go to hell!" The villain roared as he tried to slice him with his left hand, ONE shifted right dodging the attack and decking him with a right hook to the jaw, knocking him out. He kept moving and was met with machine gun fire as he rounded the corner to the 200th floor. Swiftly dodging the bullets he grabbed two in mid-air and flicked them into the barrels of the guns, jamming them and making them explode breaking several fingers of the two villains that held them. Before they could fully register the pain ONE crashed into one of them villains, sinking his fist into his stomach and cracking the wall behind him and knocking him out. He then quickly spun and blasted the other with a side kick that knocked him out.

They made it to the 200th floor, it was a dark corridor. They moved in silence as they scurried along, "Melissa, where is the control room located?" ONE asked.

"It should be just up ahead, in front of the central elevator." She answered.

ONE spread his senses to find if any more villains were waiting for them. His eyes widened as a particular scent hit his nose, "I smell blood. He said suddenly before bolting in the direction of the smell. He entered the storage room and found Professor Shield assistant Sam bleeding on the floor with a bullet wound in his shoulder and tears streaming down his face. Sir! Sir what happened to you? Where are the villains?" He asked as he gently held him up.

Melissa and Taku entered the room, blonde's eyes went wide in recognizing the man on the floor, "Sam!" She yelled with concern as she and the other teen made it to his side.

Sam had guilt written all over his face in seeing Melissa, "Miss. You're here." He closed his eyes in shame, "I'm so sorry!"

"I heard my father was taken with you, WHERE is he?! She asked, desperately.

Sam spoke through teary eyes, "We just wanted to get back what was stolen!" He cried out. "We both agreed to this. But in my greed for fortune and fame I betrayed the professor." He said saddened.

Melissa looked at the man with worry, "What did you do?"

"He's saying that this entire incident was an inside job, perpetrated by the two of them." ONE elaborated.

"Obviously." Taku agreed.

"How is that obvious?!" She cried out.

"Think Melissa. Villains being able to take over the security system here of all places means this HAD to be an inside job. Also in a room full of scientist's to act as hostages they specifically chose Professor Shield AND his assistant. This tells me they need something only HE can get. The remaining question is.. What?"

Sam's face was full of shame and disappointment, as this hero had them pegged. "I wanted to get our research back. We invented a device that could amplify a person's quirk."

Everyone was surprised at his words, Taku feeling angry and ONE taking it in in disbelief and Melissa bringing her hand to her mouth knowing where this was going.

Flashback a while prior

David Shield was hitting keys on a control panel trying to override it and find a specific item somewhere in these archives. He smiled as he finally found it, "I've unlocked it, locked 1147."

"Wonderful!" Sam called out as he ran up the stairs to the open locker. He had a big smile on his face as he pulled out a briefcase, opening it he revealed a claw like device and several other pieces. "It's all here professor, you've done it everything's perfect."

"Finally." David said as he lowered his head and clenched his fists. "I've gotten it back… All My research, and they just took my device from me." He said in a low angry tone. "Thank you. I couldn't have done any of this without your help Sam."

"It's all gone just like we planned. And it looks like the villains are still holding things down." Sam said from the top of the stairs.

"You two done in here? Asked the boss villain as he came in with an underling.

"Yes. We've taken back the device. Everything is going smoothly, you've all played your parts wonderfully. David said to the boss.

Wolfram smirked in his metal mask, "Good to know… Let's go Sam." He beconded the assistant.

"R-right." He stuttered as he snatched the briefcase from David and bolted down the stairs.

David looked at his long time assistant in disbelief, "Sam! You would betray me?!"

Sam stopped tightly clenching the briefcase, "You're the one who betrayed me professor! He shot back defensively. "I've been your assistant for all these years, and you let them take our research. We could've had fortune and fame!" He said through gritted teeth. "I deserve to be rewarded! Otherwise my career would have been a complete waste of time!" He said, sorrowful.

"You're right.. And here's your reward." He said as he pointed his gun at Sam and pulled the trigger, shooting him in the shoulder.

Sam drops the briefcase, falls back and clutches his now bloody shoulder, looking at his former accomplice in disbelief and fear. "What-. What are you doing?! Wait, this wasn't part of the plan! A fearful Sam asked Wolfrom.

He looked down on him with a sinister smirk, "Strange, because it was always a part of MY plan." He used his quirk to bring the briefcase to his hand and fired another shot at Sam. To his surprise Professor Shield quickly jumped in front of the bullet, taking it in the back of his right shoulder. Sam looked in disbelief at the man he just betrayed being so willing to take a bullet for him. The villain just sneered, "What is this now, trying to be the hero after all this? Whether we were real villains or not you've dirtied your hands and committed an actual crime here. You're the same as us, you can never go back to being a respected scientist again."

David grunted in pain on the floor, the villain's words stinging. "C'mon, we're going on a trip." He said as he lifted the professor off the ground and left the room. Sam was left on the ground, clutching his arm as his blood poured from his wound. Tears welled in his eyes as the professor disappeared, there was no fixing this, his greed and selfishness allowed villains to take the professor and their work. Dread washed over him as he thought of those long hours they spent on this project, It being taken away and he was now regretting ever making it.

Flashback ends

"Please! I don't care what happens to me anymore, just save the professor!"

Both ONE and Taku glanced at each other, they both seemed on the same page. "I got this, you handle the technical stuff" were the unspoken words between the two.

"Fucking idiots! Taku exclaimed as he bolted from the room, heading for the control center.

ONE turned to Sam, "try to relax ok, this may sting a little." He said as he vibrates his hand and reached into his shoulder. Sam grunted from the feeling and a moment later he removed the bullet. He tossed it to the side, reached into one of his pockets on his utility belt, pulled out his first aid kit and began treating him.

"Please, don't waste time on me, you have to save the professor!"

"Don't worry I will. But you've been shot so you come first. The villains won't get away I promise you, so just relax. Because I GOT THIS!" He said with an assuring smile.

Melisssa looked at him and registered his words, she couldn't help feel a sense of familiarity. It was a lot like Uncle Might but different. She took the hand of Sam as ONE treated him, "It's going to be alright Sam." The man looked into her blue eyes and tears continued to fall.

"I'm so sorry, Melissa."

In the control room

"Alright let's get this baby back on our side. Taku said as he began pressing keys. His eyes narrowed as he worked and was surprised at how difficult it was to get the system back online. He was wondering what the villains could have done because even if this is an upgraded version of the Tartarus system, hacking into this shouldn't be hard. His eyes narrowed as he found the cause of the problem, "Sons of BITCHES!" He said with venom. "Fuckers were never in control of the system they installed a virus that gave control to someone else that's who knows where! Gotta kill this thing fast!" He thought as he rapidly pressed keys

On the roof

"Just kill me." Professor Shield painfully grunted as he was thrown into a helicopter.

Don't worry.. I'll add a few more sins to your list first. Then I'll grant your wish." He said smugly as he got in the helicopter and they took off.

The helicopter took off into the sky, Wolfram pleased at the success of such an easy score. He looked at the briefcase holding the quirk amplifier, he grinned sinisterly at the many things he could do with the device. He was going to make the professor show him how to make them and sell them on black markets across the world. And that was just the tip of the iceberg. Still, when he got that call before the operation he may have been a little shocked but it all went without a hitch. This was quick and easy, and the best part is All Might posed no problem to them at all.

Suddenly the sound of multiple, powerful sonic booms were heard, startling everyone. The shocked villains looked up to see a hero clad in green in the air above the chopper. He had a big smile on his face, "You didn't really think you'd get away with this did you villains?! I'll be taking back the professor! Why? Because I GOT THIS! He declared confidently. In an instant he kicked off the air, rocketing himself forward. He tore through the chopper and grabbed the professor, leaving a hole in it before it exploded in a fiery blaze.

ONE held the professor in his arms as he landed on the ground, just as the burning chopped crashed on the roof in a burst of flames behind them. He gently laid the older man down, "Professor Shield, are you alright?" He asked warmly with a smile.

David was shocked by his sudden rescue by this hero. He had mentally resigned himself to whatever terrible fate they had in store for him, though when he heard the sonic booms he was sure it was All Might. Hope came back to him as in an instant he was saved, but to his shock his hero wasn't his old friend, it was someone else. He looked at this hero clad in a green suit and black cowl who had a smile and an aura about him he's only ever seen in All Might. He registered his question, "I'm fine now. Wh- Who are you?"

The hero's smile continued to shine, "I'm ONE… I spoke with your assistant, it's going to be alright."

David lowered his head, a mix of joy and shame written on his face, "I just wanted to help my friend." He said solemnly.

"Papa!" He heard Melissa's voice call out. Turning he could see her and Momo heading their way.

"Melissa." He said as his daughter came and hugged him.

ONE turned to Momo, "I'm assuming Fujiwara succeeded?"

"He did. All Might should be on his way up here shortly." She answered.

He suddenly heard the sound of bending metal, sensed strong malice and an attack, he turned in time to see a giant pillar of metal flying at him. "Heads up!" He called out. Cocking back his left fist, he met the attack head on and threw a punch that destroyed the pillar. David laid next to him as it crumbled away. Looking before him he could see the boss villain surrounded by metal and he was manipulating all of it around him. He was also wearing the quirk amplifier on his head, and his eyes were glowing purple. "Damn this feels great!" The villain bellowed with a sinister smile as fire burned behind him.

"He's wearing the device!" Momo exclaimed.

ONE looked at the chaos forming around him, narrowing his eyes behind his cowl. "Damn it all.. So THAT'S the quirk amplifier they made. I was hoping it would have been destroyed in the explosion.. And that's how my optimism bites me in the ass." He thought to himself. Metal cables came up and tried to grab David with ONE quickly scooping the man up and getting he and Melissa out of danger. "Professor, what the HELL did you Make!" ONE exclaimed with the scientist in question looking in horror at what was happening.

"I had no idea he created something so powerful." Melissa commented at the chaos before her.

Wolfram stared him down with a murderous gaze, "What's the matter hero?! Aren't you going to try and stop me?!"

ONE stood firm, ready to face the villain. We don't have to do this. You can take that off and go quietly while you still can?"

Wolfram sneered, "Are you an Idiot?! David Shield genuis lives up to its reputation. I can tell my quirk's gotten stronger! I'm NEVER taking this off!" He exclaimed as the floor glowed for a moment before all the metal on the roof that surrounded the building began to rise up and join with the giant mass of metal he was creating. The entire building shook and crumbled as the metal was drawn towards the roof.

"Yaoyorozu, protect these two." ONE asked as he got into his stance before rushing towards the villain at high speed. The villain waved his hand and a wall of metal rose before ONE, he punched it hard but to his surprise he didn't break all the way through. "He's collecting all the metal on the building to fuel his attacks. Gonna have to hit harder here." He thought.

"Is that all you got?! The villair roared as two pillars of metal shot through the wall he punched in an attempt to press him. He dodged the attacks and took to the air with Sky Walk. Multiple tendrils or metal flew at him and with skillful aerial maneuvers he was able to dodge all the attacks. Four tendrils of metal tried to skewer him in the air, "Sky Walk: Flash Step!" The tendrils crossed each other ashis body disappeared in a flash and appeared above his enemy. ONE cocked back both his fists, "Waves Of Blaze: Storm!" He called out as his fists ignited as he threw hundreds of punches that bombarded Wolfram with hundreds of large powerful fireballs. The villain and his metal construct were pummeled and engulfed in flames as fire rained down on him. ONE kicked off the air and landed some distance away, he watched as flames engulfed the area.

There is a crash of metal and the flames are extinguished, ONE dodges the tendrils and smashes large chunks of metal, then strongly kicks off the air, flying at the villain like a bullet. "Still don't know when you're beaten huh?!" He skillfully dodges the pillars and in a flash of speed he tears through the villain's metal defenses, ready to nail him with a punch. As he gets close when he's ensnared by metal cables. Wolfram grabs ONE by the throat, his arms enlarge and his skin glows red, ONE isn't hurt at all but is surprised by this sudden change.

"You've underestimated me!" The villain exclaimed as he tightened the hold on the hero's neck.

"Another quirk? This quirk seems to enhance his muscles." He thought to himself as he looked at the sneering villain. At first he thought that these villains were just a bunch of low rank thugs who lucked into a big score. But to face a person who had a second quirk, was beyond unprecedented.

"You know, before all this I got an interesting call from an interesting guy. I asked him why he was so eager to help. Surprisingly he said if All Might's friend was going to engage in something evil, he'd be willing to help out however he can. He was just bummed he couldn't see it for himself." The villain said smugly.

ONE's eyes widened in realization, "NO freaking way… All For One is behind this!" He shockingly exclaimed.

The side of the building broke apart as the wind roared and a hulking figure with a bright smile soared above the roof. They both turned in the direction to see the symbol of peace had arrived. "You've caused a lot of trouble with your villainy.. But it's all over now… Why? Because I AM HERE!" All Might declared before rushing through the air at the villain and crossing his arms, "Carolina… SMASH!" The tower exploded with wind pressure when he hit the villain, in that same moment he freed ONE from his restaurants and got some distance. "Are you alright ONE?"

"I'm perfectly fine. It's about time you showed up."

"Sorry about that. All the villains have been taken care of. I spoke to Melissa and got the basic story." He looked at the villain in a construct of metal, "Dave, what in the world have you made?" He said in disbelief.

"I said the same thing. All tell you the whole thing later but I just found out All For One is pulling their strings." He said seriously.

"What!" All Might turned to him in shock.

"Move!" ONE suddenly ordered as giant pillars of metal came flying at both of them. They both dodged, leaping across the roof as multiple pillars came at them. All Might rushed forward and was met with a pillar, he threw a punch to smash it but couldn't break it and was knocked upwards

"All Might!" ONE cried out as multiple chunks of metal came together, crushing All Might in a giant clutter of metal.

Wolfram sneered, "I heard from Sam, All Might doesn't have the same unstoppable power he once had… I think I just figured out how to raise the price on this thing.. By killing the number one hero! Farewell symbol of peace!" He roared as multiple skewers came from the ground and pierced through the cluster."

"No." David said in a low voice as he looked on in horror. "ALL MIGHT!" He cried out.

"Uncle Might NO!" Melissa cried.

In a flash of speed ONE was in front of the cluster, and with one powerful punch smashed it to pieces. Wind pressure exploded as metal debris flew in all directions, a large chunk landing on Wolfram. All Might was freed and surprisingly still in one piece, steam was emitting from his body and he was coughing up blood. They landed on the ground, All Might was crouched over and ONE caught a chunk of metal that would have fallen on them before tossing it aside. "All Might, are you okay?" He asked with concern.

Though bleeding from the mouth and head, his power declining he looked up at the vigilante. "Thanks, you saved me."

ONE smiled, "It's a hero's duty to save those in need. No matter the cost, right?"

All Might lightly chuckled, "You have a good point there." He smiled as he extended a hand, " I'm in quite a bind without you. Will you lend me your strength ONE?"

The green clad hero took his hand, "Of course."

All Might stood, they both readied themselves to end this, "Let's go!"

"Yes sir!"

They both bolted towards the villain who rose up again, "You'll never beat me! You're insignificant pests who don't know when to lay down and be crushed!" He roared as he launched metal at the two heroes, they both became blurs as they broke off from each other. All Might tore through several pillars before reaching a wall and smashing through it. ONE zigzagged before leaping into a flying kick and smashing through several walls of metal. All Might dodges several pillars before running along one with ONE reuniting with him. They got close to the villain who was gathering metal and forming a giant cube above him, "I'll bring down this entire tower!" He declared

The two heroes speed up, jumping off the pillar and launching themselves off a metal chunk towards the villain, ONE cocking back his right fist and All Might his left. "Overcoming the crisis before you. Never giving up. And saving people no matter what. That's what makes someone.. A HERO!" They both thought as they soared forward. Wolfram threw the cube, "Double… Detroit… SMASH!" They both called out as they punched the cube. It began to crack and spread until it shattered as they tore through it. Wolfram looked in horror as the two heroes got closer and closer, he wraps himself in metal as their attack connects with him, he roars as he's engulfed in an explosion of power. The wind pressure roars as everything the villains done starts to crumble away.

David looked past the dust at everything breaking around him. His eyes widened as he looked up and saw young All Might. Light was shining over him and he was wearing his young age costume. The look in his eyes didn't change as the form of All Might shifted to ONE in the same light. Realization washed over him as a few tears ran down his cheek. "Dave!" Looking to his right he could see All Might. "I came to save you, old friend. Looks like I wasn't needed." He said as steam emitted from him.

"Toshi, I'm so sorry." He said sincerely.

"I spoke to Melissa, it's going to be alright."

ONE stood on top of a pile of scraps, Wolfram and his underlings were knocked out and the device was destroyed. The professor and All Might looked up at the back of the green clad hero. "Toshi, do you know who that is?" David asked as he looked at the back of ONE.

All Might smiled, "He's a hero from Japan."

" A hero." He thought to himself. "I did all this… I was so afraid you'd lose your light I never even considered someone else could shine as brightly as you do."

"He IS incredible.. I'll admit I don't know much about him… But I can say for certain that in him shines the greatest potential I've seen in anyone who's desired to be a hero."

"I can see it too Toshi… Hope… And a light just like yours like yours." David said as ONE turned around, looked down and smiled at the two men.

"ONE!" Momo called out.

He turned to his girlfriend who was followed by Melissa. "You did it." Momo said with a smile.

"No. WE did it. I'm glad everything turned out alright."

"You're incredible, you know that." Melissa said with a few tears as she looked down at her father "He's okay too. Thank you so much."

ONE put a hand on her head, "No need for thanks Melissa. It's just another day in the life of a hero." He said with a smile

Melissa registered his words and nodded, "I'll see you around okay." He said as he walked past the girls to the edge of the roof.

After the incident Professor Shield and his assistant admitted to their involvement in the incident. Takumi Fujiwara was able to get the system back online. The villains were arrested and the Expo, though unconventional given the circumstances of the previous night, was still able proceed as planned. The unknown hero who stopped the villains and saved the island was another story, who exactly was ONE? There was no record of any hero by that name in any country's hero registry. It came to light that he was a vigilante from Japan. The story was all over the news and the media and security tried to find him somewhere on the island, but the only video footage of him was when he entered the tower, his time in it, and that's it. He showed up, saved the island and disappeared.

Izuku yawned as he stood on the steps of the airport overlooking the island, he had only been here three days and so much had happened. Everyone got together for a party at a park after seeing the expo together. Turns out almost all of class 1A was on the island for the festivities, he played ignorant to the crisis in the tower, wishing he could have been there. Everyone made fun of Bakugo and Kirishima for getting lost and not knowing there was a villain attack until it was over. Even as the building was breaking apart they were looking for the reception hall. Taku's been heralded as a hero for getting the system back on. He blew the minds of people at the expo and was able to sell a few items. He and Momo were able to spend some time together, the PDA was in full force. His thoughts shifted to Melissa, things couldn't possibly be the same after this. She would have to leave the island, her father's been shunned and was definitely going to jail for this.

All these thoughts came to a head as he recalled the true mastermind of all this. All Might was in utter shock when he told him AFO was pulling these villains' strings, just so he could aid in Shield doing something villainous. He expected that AFO had connections across the world but for him to have a hand in this was still shocking.

"You're still on vacation here, try not to rack your brain too much." The voice of Taku said coming from behind him

Izuku turned to his smiling friend, "Sorry, been a lot for a three day trip you know."

Taku kept a smile as he closed his eyes and approached, "True.. But we've learned and done more than we otherwise would have had we not come."

"How's Melissa doing?" Izuku asked.

"Not great, obviously. She's probably with her dad at the hospital. The professor's going to be tried after he recovers.. I tried to get Melissa to come with us. My folks will gladly take her in but I have to leave it to All Might." He said with his arms crossed.

"She'll be fine. We're her friends aren't we?" Izuku turned to look at the island one final time, he turned back to Taku, walking past him, "Let's head home.. If I'm not back today Eri will miss me too much." He said with a small smile.

"True enough." Taku began to walk with him, "Oh yeah, doesn't your dad head back to the states soon."

"Pretty sure he leaves tomorrow. But he'll be back soon so it won't be long." He replied.

The two boarded their private jet, and after a while the plane was in the air. Taku relaxed while looking at his phone Momo and the girls left just before they did. As he looked out the window he looked at the amazing, scientific floating island until it was far from view.
