Chapter 2: Feral Stage
Thanks to Priestess' little breakdown she and Kurogiri didn't notice Thirteen instructing Iida to run and get help.
Kurogiri only noticed too late when Iida was out the door.
"I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster!" she rattled off.
However Kurogiri thanks to having some concern about Priestess finally noticed the missing Iida.
"It doesn't matter!" said Priestess.
"What is this about the monster you unleashed?" demanded Kurogiri.
"No of course not!" said Priestess who seemed to be calming down.
She took out her cellphone, which appeared to be a cheap throwaway thing. It made sense for a villain to have a cheap throw away phone.
"Five bars!" she said, "I don't know if anyone noticed yet, but he was taken down…"
In the mountain Zone, Momo stood over someone that had used an electrical Quirk, the fight was one sided, and he had tried to take her hostage, it didn't work.
Back at the Entrance…
It was clear Thirteen was calling for help.
"Now that I'm calm we can take down the biggest threat in this faculty." Said Priestess.
""That monster you unleashed?" asked Kurogiri.
And then another villain came down from the ceiling, burnt and beaten.
"Friction…" she explained.
"What?" asked Kurogiri.
"He learned how to use friction to set his leg on fire." She explained.
She saw how the students were looking at her.
"I know what you're thinking! That makes no god damn sense! But you know what! His entire world made no god damn sense. They used sailing ship but cyborgs are a thing! Island floating around in the sky! And a Starfish learn how to talk because he thought he was human! But that makes no sense! Because starfishes they don't' have no brain! So I'm guessing it's like the scarecrow!" yelled the Priestess.
"Should we do something?" asked Sato unsure how to respond to the villain who had clearly lost it.
"Just let her rant, it's distracting both of them…" said the student Mina Ashido, a girl with pink skin and hair with horns and strangely black sclera.
"We have to get rid of black leg! And I know his weakness!" said Priestess, "That's the only way we can escape!"
A few minutes earlier in the Shipwreck Zone
Three students were tossed into the water thanks to the warp.
One of them was Izuku Midoriya.
The effects of Priestess' Quirk came in stages.
The first stage was Cationic, during this stage the target is cationic for 30 seconds.
One of her classmate however Tsuyu Asui saw him in the water, thankfully her quirk gave her the powers of a frog.
However before she could grab him with tongue Izuku entered Stage 2: Feral.
It's perhaps better to finally go into detail about the stage.
The target enters an intense fight or flight state of mind made up instincts of their past life. Only 4 percent targets fought however, most run and hide. Out of that 4 percent, ¾ fight to protect the people they love recognizing them as friends however that last part is attacking indiscriminately.
However it was already established that Izuku was not part of that 1 Percent that attacked indiscriminately.
Once he entered the Feral Stage he ran towards the shark like villain that was swimming towards him.
No that wasn't a typo, he really did run towards the villain underwater.
IT was a move he created in his past life to outrun a bunch of cross dressers who wanted to make him one of them.
Trying to explain things and give context will only make things worse with his past life.
Well not all the time, but a lot of the time.
Anyway the point is he could move in the water in ways that most people could only dream of.
He saw another water villain swim towards him and he managed to kick him high into the air causing an explosion due to the force.
Tsuyu blinked and carried her other classmate who was sent with them to the surface of the water.
When they got there the small statured classmate cuddled into her breasts.
"For a frog you so have nice boobs." He said.
That was Minoru Mineta, he was the class pervert.
She of course slammed him into the deck of the ship when she jumped up.
She looked at the water with explosions.
"What's going on?" asked Mineta once he recovered from.
"It's Midoriya ribbit." Said Tsuyu.
That was when Izuku jumped out of the water, his entire leg on fire as he kicked the shark like villain away.
"I didn't know he could do that!" said Mineta.
"Something weird is going on." Said Tsuyu.
"What do you mean?" asked Mineta.
"If he was able to do this before why hasn't he used it? Ribbit" asked Tsuyu.
Mineta's eyes widened.
"Wait! Wasn't he hit that weird quirk?" asked Mineta.
"He was." Said Tsuyu.
Izuku landed nearby, as if looking for more of the villains.
"Midoriya?" asked Mineta.
He turned to the two.
And looked at them, both of them froze unsure what he was going to do.
Then his eyes erupted in pink hearts and he danced in a weird way.
"Okay… he is really acting strangely." Said Mineta with sweat drop.
"Ribbit…" said Tsuyu nodding.
However one of the villains in the water tired to use his quirk on the boat, thankfully Izuku sensed it and went in for the attack before it could be done.
They watched as his leg was once again set on fire and launched the water villain in the air, of course this was the guy that was landed a second time.
"He's not attacking us, so that's good." Said Mineta.
"We have to find out what that quirk did." Said Tsuyu.
"Do we have to?" asked Mineta watching him beat down the villains.
"Maybe later. Ribbit." Sighed Tsuyu admitting that maybe waiting until after all the villains were gone if he was kicking that much ass.
Soon enough all of the villains were taken care of.
Izuku looked around the facility. He jumped of the boat, however as he did another warp appeared in in front of him.
The warp sent in to the entrance.
"Are you sure it's wise." Said Kurogiri.
"Yes." Said Priestess, "Once I was able to regain myself I remember his weakness…"
Izuku turned to Priestess.
He was ready to kick her, however he stopped.
She smiled and grabbed his leg and slammed into the ground.
"He's a monster." Said Priestess seemingly going back to how she was before her freak out, "But as I said he's a monster with scruples."
She saw on him and knees him in the back forcing him to the ground.
"Priestess!" yelled Kurogiri.
"His adoptive father made sure he would never hurt a frail woman… this almost got him killed multiple times! I should have realized that before!" said Priestess.
"Priestess!" said Kurogiri.
"I just have to hold him down and run out the clock." Said Priestess.
That was when she was wrapped up with tape.
"What!" she yelled.
Kurogiri grumbled, he knew that Priestess often had a one-track mind and she had completely forgotten that the other students were there.
That was when she was dragged over to the students and Sato punched her hard.
Izuku got up and glared at Sato. It wasn't a "You're my enemy" glare. But rather "When this is all over I'm kicking your ass" glare.
"Why is he looking at me like that?" asked Sato with a sweat drop.
"Something tells me I do want to know. Said Sero with a sweat drop.
That was when Izuku turned towards Kurogiri.
He flew towards the amorphous cloud.
As he did his leg turned black.
The kicked actually launched the amorphous black cloud into the wall.
"Of course Haki worked on him!" laughed Priestess as she got up it was clear she had snapped again, "I've unleashed a monster! He can hurt Kurogiri! I've unleashed a monster! He'll teach other heroes Haki. I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster!"
Kurogiri managed to get up. He looked at Izuku but knew that it wasn't a good time to do anything to him, not while he was in the feral stat at least.
He warped to Priestess then warped both of them away.
That was when they all heard a terrible scream coming from the central plaza.
"Oh no!" said Mina.
"Aizawa!" said a student with strange tentacles coming out of his arms named Mezo Shoji.
"Before we do anything we have to…" said Thirteen.
But however before space themed hero could finish their sentence, Izuku had already ran towards where the scream came from. Not only that but he was running in air.
"Hey!" called out Mineta.
Both he and Tsuyu showed up.
"You two are all right! That's good." Said Mina.
They noticed the taped up Ochaco, struggling looking like she was going to help their teacher as well.
"Do you have any idea what's going on with them, ribbit?" asked Tsuyu.
"I do… that villain is known as Priestess." Said Thirteen. "And she can force her victims to relive their past lives."
In the central plaza the strange bird like monster was beating up Aizawa… though beating up was a something of a misnomer.
He was crushing Aizawa.
That was when Kurogiri and Priestess appeared in the central plaza.
"So have to taken out Thirteen and the next generation?" Shigaraki.
"There was a problem." Said Kurogiri.
"Oh really? What?" asked Shigaraki.
"I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster! I've unleashed a monster!" said Priestess.
Kurogiri faltered, still reeling from the kick.
"What happened!" he demanded.
"Well I scared up royally! I've discovered a brand new power level when it comes to reincarnation." Said Priestess twitching all over, "And he is seriously OP, you know what I'm saying!"
"Please don't speak video lingo." Said Shigaraki
"Yeah… you can pull it off, but I can't." muttered Priestess.
"How OP is he?" asked Shigaraki, "I mean if you're saying that."
That was when suddenly Izuku practically came from the sky and delivered an extremely harsh kick that sent the strange bird like creature reeling and freeing Aizawa.
"His kicks are extremely strong, he can use friction to set his leg on fire giving him more fire power, harness will power into an armor for his legs which not only give them yet another power boost but can harm Kurogiri and also use the same power to predict movement and sense people… Oh he can run in the air and water…" said Priestess with her eye twitching.
"What else has gone wrong?" asked Shigaraki.
"They have gotten in contact with the outside world." Said Kurogiri.
Shigaraki began to starch at his neck.
"It's game over, soon we will be swarmed by Pro-Heroes." Muttered Shigaraki, "We're back at the star screen."
Neither Priestess or Kurogiri said anything else.
"There is no way this can possibly get worse!" yelled Shigaraki.
That was when Momo suddenly showed up and chopped off the strange bird like thing's arm off.
"You have got to be kidding me!" yelled Priestess, "She has a freakin' sword! Why does she have a sword!"
The bird like creature grew another arm and knocked the sword out of Momo's hands.
However she just created another weapon, this time a battle-axe.
"Oh and her quirk makes up for lack of magic!" said Priestess, "Great!"
Izuku looked at Momo and started dancing like earlier, then Momo gave him a look and he stopped.
The two looked at the strange thing.
"So do you think those two can stop Nomu?" asked Shigaraki.
"I don't know… I know nothing about Nomu, so I don't know if I should under estimate or over estimate it." Said Priestess.
"How long do they have?" asked Kurogiri.
"I haven't been keeping track." Said Priestess.
"You know we should see if we can get rid of these two pests before the Pros get here." Said Shigaraki.
"Life is precious." She muttered, "But those two… I've just created two that if they live will be among the strongest heroes in history…"
In the Landslide Zone, Todoroki got the information that he needed and started to leave the Landslide zone.
As he did he discovered a plate of cupcakes in his hands.
"Where did these come from!" he thought.
Meanwhile in the Fire Zone, Ojiro was trying to find his way out, but he couldn't. It was as if he as lost.
Meanwhile with Iida he continued to run, however he stopped when he saw someone on the way there.
Back at the USJ entrance, Thirteen finished their explanation about the Quirk.
"That Quirk is really weird." Said Mina.
"So all five of them remember their last past lives." Said Shoji.
"Yes, and unfortunately, most hit with that Quirk, quit being heroes." Explained Thirteen.
"What!" yelled all of the students in shock.
They all looked at Ochaco.
"However there is a rule of thumb when it comes to her Quirk." Explained Thirteen, "If any hero fights back without hurting their allies, then they will remain a hero."
The students looked hopeful.
"However that was with adults." Sighed Thirteen, "We don't know how it would be like with teenagers."
This caused all of them look uncertain.
Back in the central plaza, Izuku and Momo looked at the creature known as Nomu. Ready to fight.
However unfortunately they were unaware that the feral stage was only temporary as Stage 3: Unconsciousness would soon hit.
And hopefully time would be on their side.
Next Time: Izuku and Momo fight Nomu, however time is not on their side as, will the Pros make it in time to save them once they fall unconscious? Find out next time!
