The majority of Musutafu's citizens are sound asleep in a deep slumber at one in the morning. Children and teens snug in their beds after another stressful day at school, mom and dad snoring away in a competition of loudness, and the family dog drooling on the living room rug were the ones that had the nights cushy. For others though, night time was a fight for societal control.
It would be no surprise to even an alien that a superhuman race of people with multitudes of different "quirks" ranging from healing to destruction based would cause a hectic time for the authorities. Though with this chaos came leverage, and that was the creation of pro heroes.
Just like the ones in a comic book, professional heroes rescue citizens from danger and throw the baddies behind bars almost daily. Of course now you can't enjoy ice cream if you dont eat your broccoli first. Preparing individuals to hold this godly title of hero, the governments around the world passed laws to make it illegal to use quirks without a license. Now a person could obtain one of these licenses if they passed an entrance exam to a hero school, went through years of education in the academy passing their normal and hero classes, and last but not least, graduating to be picked up by a hero agency that would pay them a working salary. It's easy to say being a hero is a high honor in society.
Naomasa Tsukauchi sipped on his fourth cup of coffee that night. "I don't understand Toshinori. What are these bastards planning?" he asked in a tired voice. "Also isn't caffeine supposed to keep you awake? I'm feeling way to sleepy. Naomasa proceeded to take off his light brown coat before taking a seat on his office couch next to his best friend Toshinori Yagi.
The man had a tissue in his hand which he used to wipe blood away from his teeth. In this skinny skeleton form with untidy hair and sleep deprivated eyes, Toshinori would have probably been mistaken for a crackhead. On the other hand in his buff form he was All Might! The Symbol of Peace and number one hero. "How can we be sure its not just dumb luck?"
Naomasa rested the back of his head against the top of the couch allowing him to stair directly at the ceiling. "Crime just doesn't naturally drop four percent in fifteen days. For a city of this size, that's way to colossal of a change to happen in such a minimal time span." There is only one explanation for this. Someone or some group is recruiting low life scum to do... I got nothing."
Toshinori chucked his tissue in the trash then looked at Naomasa. "I know for a fact that last part of your rant isn't true. You always have some sort of idea to every mystery."
"That's the problem. They could literally be hitting anything. City hall, one of the malls, a corporate building, hell maybe their poisoning our water supply as we speak." Naomassa went on.
"Guess you're right pal." Toshinori replied while looking at the clock on the detective's wall.
1:23 a.m.
"You know, most normal people would call it a day now." Toshinori said seeing if his best friend could take a hint.
"Were not normal people. I find the bad guys, you punch them, and we repeat that cycle until death." the detective yawned. "Anyway it wouldn't feel right going to sleep not knowing where these criminals vanished off to."
The skinny blonde smiled, "You and young Midoriya are one of the same when it comes to not knowing when to quit."
"Speaking of which, how is that kid doing? When should I start contacting him instead for help?" Naomasa joked.
"He broke his arm again in a hero training practice today. Thank goodness Recovery Girl works at the school. Without her that boy would be in a lot more trouble. Midoriya and his partner still won but at what cost? Sometimes I fear that by giving him my power that I'm endangering his life." Yagi said looking down.
"I'm not a pro hero or anything but to be number one doesn't it take blood, sweat, tears, and broken limbs? Plus, I'm positive you broke a few ribs while in school. the detective said exhausted.
"Hahaha! Yeah you're right. This one time Master told me not to-"
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ" Naomasa snored.
"I think it's time to say goodnight." as the friend threw his trench coat on him and exited his office.Toshinori got out of the police station onto the street and started walking home thinking about what Detective Tsukauchi said about the crime statistics. "Whatever this cities villains have planned I'll stop it easy. I hope at least." doubting his weakened abilities.
After walking a few blocks Toshinori noticed a disturbing sight ahead of him. Some woman held her hands up while a man in all black held a large knife blade inches from her chest.
"The purse or your life lady?" said the mugger.
The woman reluctantly gave up the purse with a gloom expression on her face.
"I'm not all that bad." the mugger snickered as he threw her drivers license at her feet. "They'll save you a few hours out of your day tomorrow. Anyway, see you later sucker!" he yelled as he ran off.
"This guy has no idea what's coming to him." Toshinori grinned. No one else was out on the street tonight and with the lady watching her attacker run the opposite way as him, Yagi was able to change into his hero form All Might.
The mugger turned the corner and kept running happy about his success tonight. "Maybe If i hurry I can order a few drinks at the bar before she cancels her cards." He said to himself.
"Isn't it a little late to go on a nighttime jog? "A thundering deep voice questioned.
All Might was running alongside to the left of the mugger keeping pace with him easily.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" the crook freaked out swinging his fist at All Might attempting to almost swat him away. The muggers quirk made his fist turn to bronze before scoring a direct it on All Might's stomach. Sadly for the mugger he was fighting the worlds greatest hero.
"You call that a hit? Let a professional show you how its done." All Might then lifted his hand and flicked the mugger on the head with his index finger and thumb. The force from the simple yet effective flick sent the man flying into a parking meter head first instantly knocking him out.
The woman from earlier came running towards All Might with an officer behind her.
"Thank you so very much All Might! How can I ever repay you?!" She screamed while hugging the Symbol of Peace.
"There is no need to repay me kind citizen. I'm just doing the job I love." replied the hero.
"I don't know what Japan would do without you." said the officer handcuffing the perp. "I can take it from here. I'm sure you have more important things to do."
"In all honesty I could use a good nap right now but I'll let you take this criminal downtown. You two have a nice night." And with that All Might leaped into the air and glided the rest of the way to his home thinking about the future.
"One day Midoriya I want you to not only take my place, but surpass the limits I set. Make this world safer for those who can not fight the evils that quirks bring along with them."
Later on the sunrise brought upon a new day for the city. Most people Would be getting prepared for work and school, but for a few, their day would bring new conflicts and experiences.

"Tshh tshh" sounded off a few broken wires sparking the air around them.
Anakin slowly opened his eyes feeling a sharp pounding on his head. Discovering himself laying on top of the ship's control panel, he carefully rolled off falling to the floor with a thud.
"Hello." he said weakly out loud. "Are you guys okay?"
"Anakin are you blind? I'm right beside you. his master commented.
Anakin looked to his left, "Glad to see you too Obi-Wan. R2 and Kix, are you two ok?"
"Someone get him off of me. He's got my left arm trapped. " Kix squealed on the other side of the cockpit.
As Obi-Wan and Anakin got up, they could see the astromech lying on top of the clone medics body.
"What's the magic word?" Anakin asked laughing at the sight.
"Please." Kix said not sounding very entertained.
Using the force, Anakin lifted R2 upright allowing Kix to wiggle free and stand up. Everyone looked around the cockpit assessing the damage that had been done. Pipes were loose, levers were broken off from their respective spots, and the windows were cracked. But the strangest and most confusing part is what was going on outside of the ship. Green bushes and tall trees that towered over them indicated they were in some type of forest. But how? They sure didn't remember landing here.
"Hate to be the bearer of bad news but I thinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnk..." Obi-Wan stopped talking and was immediately at full attention to his surroundings. Everyone in the room had gotten wide eyed. Even R2 seemed to be in complete shock. In the last minute they had not been speaking their usual language of galactic basic, but sometype of tounge they have never heard before. The reason they just now noticed was because they had not been attentive after their horrific experience until now.
"Alright, I'm now about ninety-nine percent sure we died to that black hole and this is the official language of the after life." Kix stated. In all honesty, it didn't seem to crazy to assume.
"No one freak out! Let's at least attempt to speak galactic basic before we assume we met our end."
Anakin was the first to test this theory. "Hello people nice weather were having."
"Yes definitely." said Kenobi back.
"Couldn't say it better myself." piped in Kix.
Glad they could speak in both tounges, there was only one last question to ask about this language switch.
"R2 you can understand us right?" asked Anakin.
"Beep boop beep." the astromech responded.
"Good. Wouldn't want to keep you out of any loops." Anakin said.
"Alright let's break up this party and check on the others. Kix be prepared to use the bandages out of your backpack." Obi-Wan ordered.
"Yes sir." Kix said as they all ran towards the back.
"Is everyone okay." Anakin hollered towards the passengers. The crew seemed pretty shaken up about the experience with people either lying down or rubbing their eyes.
Ahsoka spoke first in a spooked tone. "What language are we speaking and how can I underst-"
"Focus on what's important Ahsoka, is anyone hurt?" Anakin blurted back.
He was right. As long as she can understand her master, getting everyone proper treatment was the essential focus. "Tup isn't moving right now, he's face down on the floor right there."
"Crap his leg is broken." Kix confirmed after flipping him over. The medic then put his head near Tup's chest. "His hearts still beating. Probably just in shock after breaking the limb.
Everyone else on the ship seemed to be bruised at the most. Anakin still ask Padme multiple times if she was feeling alright.
"Don't worry Ani, I'll live." Padme smiled.
"All I wanted to here." the jedi smiled back.
"Okay so what is up with this language were speaking? Are we in the afterlife?" Echo said
"Beats me." Dogma said dusting off his armor.
"Lets have a look outside shall we." Jesse said opening the sparking and barely functioning side doors.
Outside the ship it was dark indicating night time. Birds flew by and green grass like on Naboo carpeted the forest. The cruiser was absolutely dismantled having much of its outer shell torn off with the left turbo cannon missing. The interesting thing about the crash sight was that there were no skid marks or broken trees on the ground and nothing was on fire. The ship almost looked like it had been placed in the forest by a giant hand.
Over the next few minutes the crew sat in a circle on the grass and went over events trying to piece together what exactly had happened. Their com links were working but when they tried to use their holographic communicators to contact someone offworld, nothing happened.
"Okay from what we've gathered let me have a go at reviewing what we think." Obi-wan cleared his throat. We went through the black hole only to be spit out somewhere else in the galaxy because of the wormhole theory. The language we are now able to speak and the half broken hologram communicators is an effect of the wormhole or the planet we're on."
"So what language should we speak with?" said Ahsoka.
"Right now I suggest this new one. Maybe this planets wants us to." Obi-wan proposed. Everyone agreed. After all, what hard could it do?
Tup at that moment woke up from his nap only to see his leg in makeshift wooden brace Kix had put together from the sticks around them. Everyone stared back at him. "What did I miss?" he said.
Realizing he wasn't speaking galactic basic now confirmed his question that he had indeed missed a lot.
After Obi-Wan gave the explanation and theories again, he asked Tup how he ended up breaking his left leg.
"I didn't get a good grip on my seat when we jumped again. All I recall is flying across the room and slamming into something firm." the soldier with a hair bun explained.
"Well with that question out of the way we should get down to business." Obi-wan said getting ready to command in the new language."R2, fix anything that can help us send a distress signal or pull up a map to tell us where we are. Padme, If you packed anything more suitable for the environment were in, please wear it now."
"Don't worry Master Kenobi, I prepare my suitcases for everything." she smirked.
"Anakin and Rex will come with me to help find civilization. The rest of you excluding Tup need to set up tents and make camp with anything found in the ship. Tup, rest for now, we don't need you injuring your leg even more."
"Master are you sure you don't need me to tag along?" Ahsoka pleaded to her master.
"We need to keep our numbers small so avoiding danger can be easier. Plus I'm not going to allow you to get into unnecessary peril on a planet we know virtually zero about. You still have much to learn in your training." answered Skywalker cross armed.
"Yes master." she said unhappy. Ahsoka wanted to be in the action almost more than Hardcase did, but she still had to abide by her master and obey the orders.
Now that all twelve people and one droid knew what they needed to do, Obi-wan and his party headed into the unknown.
(X)
"Nothing to report so far Snips, but I'll contact you when we find something." Anakin said into his com link.
"Copy that master." the young padawan said back.
"She's definitely an eager one to learn and fight." Obi-Wan remarked.
"Oh you have no idea." Anakin said with Rex nodding in agreement.
The three had been walking for half an hour with no luck in finding anyone or anything. In the woods were birds flying and bugs of all the sorts crawling on the forest floor. The sun was now coming up over the horizon letting the travelers see and hike more efficiently.
"This planet is way to plentiful in resources to not have intelligent life." Rex said breaking the silence. "If we keep walking our luck's bound to change."
"Vrooom"
"You guys here that?" Anakin said.
"Vrooom"
"It's that way." Obi-Wan pointed causing the men to run towards the mysterious sound.
The men ran until they reached an opening leading to some sort of paved street. Looking at all directions they could see houses, apartments, signs, and strange looking motorized vehicles. Most importantly though was that they found people. They were mostly human except for a few exceptions. One guy driving seemed to have four eyes on the back of his head or an old lady sitting on her porch being completely purple.
"Generals, can you both understand that?" Rex said while pointing towards a square green sign.
Now entering Musutafu city limits
"Certainly." they both said
"Seems like that black hole helped us learn to read the new language too." Obi-Wan suggested.
"Ahsoka we found a city to explore. We're going to try and find a place to get a signal to The Jedi Temple." Anakin said through his com link.
"Good to know Skyguy." she replied.
"By the way, how's Padme doing." ask Anakin curiously.
"She changed into that outfit with the red jacket and brown pants. Right now she's helping Kix look after Tup." the padawan answered.
"Good to know. I'll contact you later." Skywalker assured her.
With the sun fully above the horizon, the trio walked into the morning city.
This city was far stranger to them than anywhere else they had fought the war. The locals were definitely lacking in terms of technology by several thousand years. There were still tall buildings and trains taking people from point A to B but the vehicles still moved on the ground.
"Weird, planets usually have primitive people or their infrastructure is on par with us, never in between." Anakin stated.
"Some of these signs and billboards don't ring a bell either. What the heck is Universal Studios? added Rex.
They were certainly eye catchers to the people around them. The long robes the jedi wore and the armor worn by the clone stood out by comparison.
"Those guys look strange." said a six-armed boy with a mask and uniform on.
"Must be new heroes in town." a bird headed kid wearing the same uniform responded with an uninterested voice.
"Would it kill you to get excited or be curious about something Tokoyami?" asked the masked boy sarcastically.
"No but I'm pretty sure Mr. Aizawa would if were late. Let's hurry up Shoji." Tokoyami said. And with that the heroes in training walked off.
"Look a map. Maybe we can finally stop wandering around aimlessly. Obi-Wan said .
As they studied the map plastered on a wall, an alarm rang out.
Two men ran out of a bank with a backpack full of cash being carried by one of them. The pair hoped into a getaway car and it sped away in the direction of the jedi and clone.
"Would you like to take the vehicle out Rex?" Anakin asked.
"Gladly." the captain said whipping out his dual pistols.
When the car neared, Rex shot the front right tire and both back ones as the crooks zoomed by. Loosing control, the driver spun off the rode into a fire hydrant knocking himself out. The two other crooks opened their car doors and rolled out tumbling to the ground.
"Did you not know stealing is a crime everywhere in the galaxy." Obi-Wan said as he and Anakin approached.
The bank robbers quickly stood up and drew their pistols.
"Stay back you two or we'll put one right between each of your eyes." one of them said.
"Try to incapacitate them. There just bank robbers." Obi-Wan whispered to Anakin.
"Didn't you two wizard looking idiots here my friend? Back off!" The other thug yelled.
"Guys they have guns and you both don't look bulletproof. Wait for a better suited hero to get here!" a bystander screamed.
The two jedi stopped only ten paces separating them from the hesitant bank robbers.
"Please drop your weapons." Obi-Wan said with a wave of his hand.
"Huh?" one of them said in a confused tone. Did this guy really expect him to lay down his weapon? That's ridiculous.
"You heard him. Lay down your weapons." Anakin said doing the same hand motion.
For some unknown reason the thugs dropped their pistols as if they were dogs obeying their master. The crowd that had formed around the scene gasped in shock. Who knew asking criminals to stop being criminals would work.
"Do it now Rex." said the jedi knight turning towards his captain.
The clone shot the two with stun blasts sending a circle of blue energy, overloading their nervous systems, and knocking them unconscious.
The crowd roared with glee. "What an uncanny fight! Did you see what that one guy with the helmet did to that car?!" Someone said.
"Come on lets get an interview." said a news lady to her cameraman.
Soon a police car showed up to take care of the three aspiring back robbers to handcuff them. The getaway driver was able to walk on his own power but the other pair refused to wake up.
"Hey buddy. What did you do to these two clowns?" asked one cop chewing a piece of gum.
"They'll be fine. Just give them a few minutes to recover." Rex assured them.
"Hello." the female reporter said to the trio.
"Hello madam. Is there something we can help you with?" Obi-Wan responded.
"I'm a reporter for HNA. May we ask you all a few questions about your quirks and the moves you pulled on the bank robbers out there? Especially when you asked them to drop their weapons, how did you convince them to do that?" she held the mic to their faces
"Ehhhhhhhhh... quirks?" Obi-Wan said with a confused look. The Jedi were never the type of group to supply the media much attention. In all honesty, nobody had ever given Master Kenobi an interview until now.
"I'm sorry miss but unless you can find us a galactic map with a big red arrow telling us our current position, we must be going." Anakin said to the reporter turning his friends away and down the street.
"Who said you could depart from the crime scene?" a figure in front of them said.
The "man" wore what seemed to be a wooden mask on his face and a blue skintight suit. He also had on a wooden belt and boots to match the mask.
"I am Kamui Woods. You three new heroes to town? What agency do you work for? the wooden man asked.
"Are you getting anything from this general? whispered Rex.
"Not a word." Anakin answered.
"We don't work for anyone here. Our allegiance is to The Jedi Order and The Republic." Obi-Wan said.
"Okay... wait where are you guys from?" Two of you sound british but that brown robed one sounds american." said the wooden man.
"Listen, we stopped a robbery and now we must leave." Anakin said.
Woods wasn't done yet with the secretive three. They were speaking all sorts of nonsense and he needed to be sure of at least one detail.
"One last question?" Kamui asked.
"What?" responded a particularly annoyed Anakin.
"Do you all have hero licenses? Woods said.
"A license to be a hero? Man what a day I'm having, this guy is insane." thought Anakin. "No pal, but I recommend staying away from the bars. Drinking is a negative on your health." he said to him.
"Than I have no choice to bring you in for breaking a federal law." Kamui said getting into attack position. "Make this simple and surrender to authority."
"I think you pissed him off general." Rex said grabbing his blasters.
"Federal law? We stopped a robbery for goodness sake. We're not going anywhere with you! Obi-Wan shouted.
"Don't say I didn't worn you." the hero said whipping his branches out towards his targets.
Anakin and Obi-Wan shocked The bystanders and Kamui by leaping fifteen yards into the air and landing back on their feet. Rex meanwhile, took the far less impressive route of barrel rolling under the branch and taking cover behind a car.
The hero took another swing at the two jedi when they whipped out their lightsabers and slash the wood in half. Kamui was astonished by what he witnessed. "Their swords just cut through my wood! Damn I underestimated them." he thought to himself.
While Obi-Wan and Anakin distracted the hero by doing flips and slides, Rex was in a shootout with officers who had arrived on the scene. Their were eight in total firing at the clone who was crouched behind a car. He peaked up over the hood and fired a few stun shots electrifying one cop with a blast. "Yeah just seven to go." the captain said to himself sarcastically.
"Why don't we sit down and have a civilized discussion?" asked Obi-Wan causally as he fliped over and slashed another wood trunk.
"We're way past that!" wailed an angered and exhausted Kamui. The two mysterious villians were wearing him down extremely rapidly. Woods knew his energy regrow for his quirk couldn't last much longer so he made a call. "I need you to come to my location now. Its an emergency!"
The HNA reporter couldn't be more delighted to see the fight waging in front of her. "I hope your getting a good angle cause this will be on the seven o'clock news." she squealed.
Rex was still under a substantial amount of fire. He had taken out two more officers leaving him with five more to face. Grabbing his backpack he reached in and grabbed three smoke grenades. "This worked last time... on clankers."
The captain threw the smoke bombs over to the police crouched behind their vehicles. The bombs burst creating a thick cloud of gas. "Now's my chance."
"Bastard! I can't se-"
"What the he-"
"He's in the smoke conce-"
Just like that three were knocked out of the fight in seconds. With the smoke clearing, Rex acted fast and grabbed an officer by the neck and proceeded to squeeze his windpipe. The last standing officer saw what was happening to her partner and charged with a taser ready. The problem with that move was that Rex is an ARC trooper, meaning that success is mandatory. The clone gripped the womans right arm and shoved her body into one of the police car doors knocking her down. "Sorry for the trouble." Rex said before shooting the stuns at his last two opponents.
"How can this happen?! I'm suppose to be the number seven hero!" Kamui internally shrieked.
His attacks had kept getting dodged by the athletic men in various ways. Flipping, rolling, and cutting his attacks with their lazor swords had proved to much. Their was not much Woods could do from the very beginning. Using real punches and kicks would have done nothing considering they were moving way to fast for him to get a hit in. Ranged attacks, his only option, had failed him leading to his downfall. Now slumped taking a knee he could do nothing but wait for the calvary to arrive.
"Nothing personal Kamui." Anakin awkwardly said. The chosen one took his metal fist back and punched the man in the face putting him to sleep. "That just didn't feel right at all." Anakin said placing his lightsaber back into its place.
"He was only attempting to do good in his own eyes, but right now we must vacate this scene." Obi-Wan said.
"Not so fast." boomed a womanly voice.
Turning the corner a gigantic lady several stories high bounded towards them. She wore a tan and purple suit with orange stripes in certain areas. The mask with horns she had on covered part of her face but flowing blonde hair could be seen coming off the back.
"Fight or flight sir." Rex asked.
"I don't think we can run considering she's taller than a rancor." Anakin answered.
"I am Mt. Lady, and I'm here to finish what my teamate started." she said charging at them making the ground quake.
The hero was planning on grabbing the three with her hands and shaking the crooks until the g-force made them pass out, but a wild card of a result came from her move.
When Mt. Lady lowered her hand to squeeze the trio, an invisible force pushed against her.
"Now Rex!" Obi-Wan ordered while simultaneously helping Anakin push away the hand using the force.
The clone at that moment threw an impact grenade at the giants palm stunning her. Mt lady stepped back in pain grasping her hand. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Rex ran a few blocks down the street.
"If anyone can here me, the criminals are running in the direction of U.A.!" Mt Lady shouted into her earpiece.
"Don't worry darling." a seducing voice answered back. "No man can resist my scent."
(X)
"Think I have enough time to contact Ahsoka?" said Anakin.
"When we find a place to hide." Obi-Wan responded as they ran.
After a few blocks, the trio ran by several buildings in the shape of an H. Outside the gate of the complex in the middle of the street stood another pro hero blocking their path to escape. Like the last one, she was also female but had a skintight white, black, and purple suit with special accessories around the body.
"How come you boys are in such a rush?" she said. "I need volunteers to test my new perfume."
With those words a pink gaseous substance oozed from her forearms and surrounded the two jedi and clone. The gas closed in and the two force users fell. Rex, was of course not affected do to his helmet being a deterrent to the substance.
"Guess I'll have to fight you using whips and kicks." the provocatively dressed woman commented. "Just tell the doctor Midnight sent you crawling to the infirmary. He'll understand."
Rex went for his blasters but was immediately denied when her flog whip nicked his hands sending the dualpistols flying away.
"Kick his blue ass Midnight! Also marry me!" a person from the crowd shouted.
"Lady you don't know what your doing. We are apart of the Galatic Republic and will gladly sit down to discuss your planetary laws." Rex pleaded.
"Wise guy huh? I would be lying if I said that accent doesn't get me off." she licked her lips. "Let's see how you feel after this strike." she said launching her whip foward.
To the suprise of Midnight and the crowd, Rex caught the whip with his right hand. The clone than pulled on the whip bringing the hero next to him. Midnight gave a kick to the enemie's face but missed putting her in a bad situation. Having the advantage, Rex seized the womans leg, threw her chest first on the pavement, and tied Midnight's arms up behind her back with the whip.
"I didn't want to do that." the clone said the clone.
"Usually I'm the one doing the dominating during foreplay, but I'll make an exception for you sweety." she smiled.
Thankfully Rex was wearing a helmet because his cheeks started blushing tremendously. "This lady is definitely coo coo." he thought
Suddenly much like Midnight, Rex found himself wrapped up. Some sort of silk had maneuvered itself around him without giving anytime to react. Looking up he spied a drowsy eyed man with long unkempt hair wearing a black sweater and pants. What was tangled around Rex could be traced back to the man's scarf.
"We are definitely done here." he said with a dirty look.
Hello reader thank you for getting through two chapters of my story! The reason I started this was because no one else on this website has crossed over these two universes before. I will try to post a chapter at least once every 14 days so wish me luck in that department. Also leave comments if you want to suggest anything or give me criticism.
