AN: Hey everyone we are back with another chapter! Thank you all so much for the support on the last chapter, it really means a lot to me to see you all enjoying this story. As some of you may have seen, I haven't updated my other stories in a while, there is a reason for this and will be addressed tomorrow in each story and won't affect this one, hopefully. But without further adieu let's just jump into it!
Dish Best Served Cold
A few days had gone by since that fateful night, and in that time Izuku was told to return to UA. But Izuku refused, he instead went home, not with Bakugo, but his original home. Aizawa and All Might found out about this and went to check on him but Izuku wouldn't even come to the door. After several failed attempts, Aizawa went and got a key and opened the door.
Only to find it empty and Izuku nowhere in sight. As Aizawa walked into the apartment he noticed a note on a small stand. Grabbing it Aizawa began to read it, once done he sighed, "I should have known. He's gone again."
"Any idea where he would be?" Asked All Might. "Or maybe Hatsume knows."
"Hatsume told us to check their place down by the beach but he's not there. We won't find him unless he wants to be found." Explained Aizawa. "Come on, let's go back to UA. Midoriya will be at the funeral, maybe we can talk to him then."
As the two heroes left, All Might couldn't help but wonder. "Hey Aizawa, I have to ask. And I hope this doesn't come off as rude or disrespectful but, why do you care about Midoriya so much? You usually work alone. I get he's your student and all but what you're doing is far beyond the responsibilities of a teacher."
Aizawa kept walking down the halls of the building, "You're right, what I'm doing is a bit strange for a teacher. But I'm not doing this because I'm his teacher, I'm doing this because I care about Midoriya. He helped me get closure with Shirakumo, helping him now is the least I can do."
With Mei, UA
Mei was currently sitting across from Nezu who was in deep thought. "Are you sure about this Hatsume? He may never forgive you if you go through with it."
Mei nodded, "I know, but he'll be alive to hate me for it. Besides, his father told me to make sure Izuku doesn't do anything he'll regret. And that's what I intend on doing."
"I hope it doesn't come to that, but with Midoriya acting on his own now. I fear he is capable of anything." Explained Nezu.
"I know, he wants to kill Stain. I understand that he's angry right now but killing Stain won't bring back his father." Said Mei, with sadness in her voice.
"If he does manage to do it, Midoriya will be branded a villain. That's something no one wants to happen." Said Nezu. "Try talking to him first, if that doesn't work then you can enact your plan." But Mei knew that talking wouldn't work. Izuku was dead serious about killing Stain, if she couldn't talk him out of it then she'd use other methods.
One Week Since That Day
Throughout the week leading up to Hisashi's funeral reports were coming in that low level villains were being beaten down by someone, leaving them with multiple fractures and some even in a comatose state.
No evidence was found linking someone to the crimes but reports say that in a blink of any eye a green streak appeared before disappearing. This was most certainly Izuku, he was going around beating people up.
But none of that mattered right now, for today was the day they buried Hisashi. At the funeral service family and friends came to see off Hisashi one final time. Bakugo and Mei were there and even some heroes, but much to everyone's surprise Izuku wasn't. "Is he really not going to show up?" Asked Bakugo. "It's his own father's funeral!"
Mei clenched her hands together, "I-I don't know…. we'll just have to wait and see."
Once the service was over it was now time to take Hisashi to the graveyard. With still no sign of Izuku things went on as usual. The spot chosen to bury Hisashi was right next to Inko.
Placing the headstone down it read, "Here lies Hisashi Midoriya, a loving husband, father, and an innocent man. May he be with his wife who's waiting for him."
The ceremony was now over and everyone began to leave. Bakugo and Mei stayed behind and hoped that Izuku would show up but he never did. Bakugo left first, and it was now down to Mei.
Looking at both tombs, Mei felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. "I'm sorry Hisashi, it should have been me. If only Izuku wasn't worrying about me, he could have saved you. I couldn't do anything for you then, but I can for Izuku. I'll make sure he doesn't do anything he'll regret. I promise you."
With that Mei turned and began to walk away, but as she did a strong wind blew. Mei was surprised, it wasn't windy at all, where did this gust of wind come from? That's when she heard something, a sparking sound.
Turning, Mei looked at Hisashi's grave to see someone standing over it. Their clothes were dirty, their hair a mess, and Mei could see something dripping from their hands.
Using her quirk she zoomed in and noticed that it was blood. Quickly running over Mei reached out and grabbed the person by the arm. "Izuku!" Turning the person around Mei was shocked, it was Izuku.
But he looked tired, dead tired. His face lacked color, his eyes dimmed, and his hair was a mess. "Izuku! Where have you been!? We've been worried sick!" Yelled Mei, happy to see Izuku, but also sad to see him in such a state.
Izuku said nothing as he turned to look at her, that's when Mei remembered the blood. Raising his arm Mei found that his knuckles had open cuts and bruises. "How did you…" Mei gritted her teeth. "You're coming with me…"
Mei then began to drag Izuku, at first she felt some resistance but that soon disappeared. After waving down a cab Mei and Izuku got in and went down to the beach.
Once inside the hut Mei put Izuku on the sofa, "Hold on, I'll get the first aid kit." Going over to a workbench, Mei dug through some junk and got the kit.
Walking back, Mei began to clean up Izuku's injured hand. "How did you get these injuries?" She asked, but got no response. "Were you the one taking down those villains?"
Again, no answer, "You know you almost killed them right?" Asked Mei as she wrapped up one of his hands.
As Mei was about to clean the other hand Izuku spoke, "They deserved it."
"They didn't deserve that." Answered Mei. "You beat someone near death."
"They deserved far worse if you ask me." Answered Izuku in a monotone voice. "They were all criminals."
"Yes, but they could have changed. Now they won't get that chance." Answered Mei, feeling her anger grow.
Izuku raised his head, his blank eyes now looking at Mei. "Good, they don't deserve it."
That was the final straw, standing up Mei threw the med kit aside. "What the hell is wrong with you!?"
This was indeed a rare sight, Mei never raised her voice. One she was always loud, and two is that she never got mad. This surprised Izuku, but his surprise soon turned to anger, "Me, nothing. It's this way. The system is broken Mei, the hero system failed to save my mom, the justice system failed my dad when they put an innocent man in prison. I won't let anyone else suffer like I have, not when I have the power to do something about it."
"Are you hearing yourself right now? You sound like a B rank villain. You're sounding like…" That's when Mei put it together. The way Izuku talked, acted, was now eerily similar to Stain's. "You have to stop Izuku, your dad wouldn't have wanted you to do this. Please, if you don't stop, the heroes will force you."
Izuku hung his head, "My dad is dead now Mei, my one reason to keep on going is now gone. And if he's gone, Stain doesn't deserve to live."
"What about me? Aren't I reason enough to keep going?" Asked Mei. "I mean, you saved me first."
Slowly looking up Izuku stared at Mei, with his dead tired eyes. "If it were you that died that night, I know for a fact that my dad would be supporting my actions right now. If you think what I'm doing is wrong, I made the wrong choice that night."
Mei's eyes widened when she heard those words, "Y-You don't mean that, do you?" Izuku stayed silent. "Izuku….every night since it happened I've been thinking why you saved me instead of your dad. I thought it was because you cared, guess I was wrong."
Hanging her head, Mei had tears running down her face. Izuku just said that he'd rather have saved his father over her. At the time Mei thought he would, but hearing that broke her heart, "So there's nothing I can say to make you stop, right?"
Izuku got up, "No, but you can tell the heroes to stay out of my way. I'm sorry Mei, but I have to do this."
Wiping the tears away Mei nodded, "Then I'm sorry too, but I made a promise to your father that I'd look after you and make sure you wouldn't do anything you'd regret."
Reaching into the work area Mei pulled out the ice gun she was working on and fired. The gun glowed blue as it fired an ice beam at Izuku.
Izuku was taken by surprise by Mei's sudden attack. Activating his speed Izuku managed to dodge out of the way. The ice beam hit the sofa he was on and froze it on the spot. "How? You don't have an ice quirk." Asked Izuku, surprised that Mei used it considering she was building it to amplify ice quirk users.
"I scrapped that idea and went with something more original. I built a mini cyclotron that hits absolute zero. It doesn't freeze per say but it does eliminate movement." Explained Mei as she fired again.
Dodging out of the way Izuku made sure none of those beams hit him or else it would be over. "You won't be able to hit me Mei and you know that." said Izuku as he dodged another blast.
"I know, but I was just stalling." said Mei, firing rapidly.
Izuku raised an eyebrow, "Stalling, for what?"
Just then the wall to the hut collapsed inward, sending pieces of metal everywhere and kicking up sand.
Raising his arms to shield his eyes, Izuku was stunned to hear a loud boom. That's when from the sand a massive fist came from the sand. Izuku tried to dodge but by the time he saw it the fist was already touching his face.
Another loud boom was heard as the hit connected. The hit was so strong that the sand in the air dispersed and Izuku was sent flying towards the wall. "She was stalling until we arrived." Said All Might.
Izuku groaned in pain as he got up, but before he could stand, cuffs were thrown on his wrists. Looking up Izuku found Mei, All Might, and Aizawa all looking at him, "Looks like the gang's all here. How did you even know I was here?"
"Mei notified us. All she needed to do was make sure you stayed here long enough for us to get here." Explained Aizawa.
Izuku chuckled, "So what now?"
"Now we bring you back to UA. There you will be confined and will be given therapy. Midoriya, you just lost someone important to you, you need help, you need a hero.." Said All Might. "We are heroes, so helping is what we do. We are supposed to give people hope, not fear."
"No. My father needed a hero. I need revenge. And are you really going to pretend that you never shattered my dreams? Failed to give me hope." Asked Izuku. Aizawa and Mei looked at All Might.
All Might's eyes widened, Izuku saw this and smirked, "You still remember, don't you? What you said to me that day."
"I remember, and I regret those words every day." Said All Might, hanging his head.
"Then where is my apology? Even after all this time, I still haven't heard a single sorry from you. While we're at it, where is my apology from that deadbeat cop Naomasa. He's supposed to have a lie detection quirk, he could have helped my dad! But all he kept saying was "I can't tell", "I can't tell!" I didn't want to hear his excuses, I just wanted my dad out of prison!" Izuku stayed silent, before laughing.
"You know it's funny actually. There is one person I should be thanking, and it isn't a hero. I should really be thanking Melissa." Everyone's eyes widened. "The person who killed my mother was the only person who actually made an effort to get my dad out of prison. If it wasn't for her confession, we would have never made it to trial. Imagine that."
Mei suddenly walked over to Izuku and pointed her freeze gun at him. "Shut up! Melissa doesn't deserve to be on your mind, let alone thinking about thanking her! Enough, you're coming with us whether you like it or not."
"You'll have to catch me first." Said Izuku as he suddenly began to vibrate his arms. Mei saw this and pulled the trigger. A blue beam of ice flew through the air, but in that moment Izuku raised his hands and managed to direct the blast at the cuffs.
The cuffs froze over making them brittle and weak. With green lightning jumping off of him Izuku quickly got up and swung his arms, hitting Aizawa across the face and shattering the cuffs.
All Might rushed in but as he raised his arm Izuku appeared and touched his weak spot. "If I remember, it should be right around here."
Activating his speed Izuku managed to shake All Might himself. The number one hero screamed out in pain as he fell to the floor on his knees. "W-What did you do to me?"
"I vibrated your entire molecular structure. Not enough to kill you but just enough to make it hurt, alot." Said Izuku as the hero hit the floor unconscious.
As Izuku now stood over the defeated heroes a blast of ice managed to graze him on the shoulder. With his shoulder now encased in ice Izuku turned to Mei. In a flash Izuku appeared in front of her and just as she was about to pull the trigger, Izuku slapped the gun out of her hands. "Enough of that."
Mei now stood eye to eye with Izuku, "Are you going to knock me out like you did to them?"
"No, but you have to stay out of my way Mei. I don't want to hurt you." Said Izuku.
"You already have." Mei said glaring at Izuku.
Izuku sighed, but as he was going to respond something suddenly came from the outside. Whatever it was, Izuku caught it and noticed that it was a metal ball, "What is this? Your last resort?"
Turning back to Mei, Izuku noticed a gas mask over her face. "Yes actually."
The metal ball then cracked open and let out a purple gas that Izuku inhaled. One whiff was enough to make Izuku light-headed.
Dropping the ball Izuku stumbled backwards, "W-What is this? What did you do to me?" He asked as he tried to grab onto stuff on the workbench, only to knock everything down.
"Midnight's quirk puts anyone to sleep within seconds. Works even better on men. With a little help from my baby and some muscle from Bakugo you never expected it." Said Mei as Izuku struggled to keep his eyes open.
"B-Bakugo….he's in on this too." Izuku fell to his knees.
Mei then kneaded down with him and touched his face, "This is for your own good Izuku, I won't let you throw away your life so easily."
With that Izuku fell face first onto the floor, completely knocked out.
Several Hours Later
Slowly waking up Izuku could hear voices, "He's waking up. Is everything ready?" One voice asked.
"Yes, all containment procedures are in effect." Another said.
Snapping his eyes open Izuku found himself in a room with a glass pain in front and several devices around his body. "Where am I?"
"You are at UA Midoriya." Said Nezu appearing from the glass door. "We've brought you here to help you, and make sure you don't get in our way."
"In your way? What are you talking about?" Asked Izuku.
"We are taking down Stain." Said All Might appearing behind the glass. "This is a job for the heroes. You're too angry, it's clouding your judgment. Once we deal with Stain we'll let you go."
Izuku narrowed his eyes, "I'm the only one who can even get close to touching him. You fight Stain and you'll all be dead before you could even blink."
"That's where you're wrong." Said Aizawa, walking up to the glass with Hatsume by his side. "We have a plan to stop him."
"Your plan will fail." Explained Izuku. "Who the hell even came up with this plan anyway? Nezu?"
"It was me." Said Mei, much to Izuku's surprise.
"What? There's no way, you couldn't have come up with a plan in such a short amount of time. Unless…." Izuku then realized something. "Unless you already had plans made. But in order to do that…..You, you made plans to stop me?"
Mei hesitated for a second before shaking her head, "No, the plans were originally for Melissa if she ever came back."
Izuku scoffed, "And now you're using the plans on me. But that's not the only reason why you made these plans now is it? Yeah, I know you Mei. You don't make something unless you have 5 or more uses for it. So tell me, what's the other reason?"
"You, you are also the reason why I made those plans. Why? Because you're too fast. After your little time travel incident I calculated that you have a 85% chance of destroying the world. And the worst part is, you'd do it in under 5 minutes." Explained Mei. "So I modified and made plans to stop you if that time ever came."
Izuku was stunned, "How could you, I trusted you Mei. And now you're going to betray me?"
Mei slammed her fist onto the glass, "I'm not betraying you, I'm helping you! I promised your father I'd keep you from doing anything you'll regret. And by all my past babies, I will keep that promise."
"Don't use my dad to justify what you're doing now!" Yelled Izuku. "Killing Stain will be more than justified and you all know it! He's killed so many, not just my dad. I'll be doing everyone a favor."
"No, you wouldn't. If you kill Stain you'll be beyond our help. Please Izuku, we want to help but killing Stain won't help anyone in this situation." Said All Might, pleading with Izuku.
Izuku hung his head, "That's where you're wrong. It would help me."
"Sorry kid, but we won't let you go through with this." Said Aizawa.
"Yeah, I know. And I'm sorry too, but I can't have you guys stopping me." With that Izuku suddenly began to spark green lightning.
Alarms went off in the room as Izuku shattered the restraints. Landing on his feet Izuku ran at the glass in an effort to break it but all he did was bounce off it like a ball. "What the hell!"
"You like it? It's a titanium alloy that has been weaved into the glass. Making it virtually unbreakable." Explained Mei. "Not even you will be able to break it Izuku."
After touching the glass Izuku smirked, "Not bad, this would have worked if you caught me 3 days ago. Unfortunately for you, all the time I've been gone have been thinking of ways to kill Stain. So I've been working on some new tricks, want to see one?"
Backing up Izuku hit the other end of the room and got into a sprinter's stance. "Is he going to charge the glass?" Asked Nezu.
"If he does he'll break every bone in his face, he could even die.." Said Aizawa, now worrying. "Let him out."
"We can't do that. If we let him out now we may not ever catch him again." Argued All Might. "He stays in there no matter what."
Just then Izuku began to run at the glass, Aizawa flinched when he was just inches from the glass. But much to everyone's surprise, Izuku didn't break it or bounce off it, no, instead he phased right through it.
Mei was stunned, "How!?"
Izuku smirked as he now stood outside the glass, "You like? I picked it while I was training. If I vibrate my entire body at just the right speed I can pass through the space between molecules. Now, it's almost impossible for me to be chained up."
Aizawa jumped at Izuku, but Izuku simply sighed, "When will you ever learn." Rushing in, Izuku grabbed Aizawa's arm and flung him towards a wall.
"Aizawa! Alright, this ends here! You're staying right here Midoriya!" Yelled All Might as he too rushed him. "Detroit Smash!"
All Might's massive fist came flying down, but once again Izuku had a plan. Raising his hand Izuku appeared like he was going to take the hit straight on. "Too easy…" said Izuku as All Might's fist touched his hand, then a bright green light engulfed the area.
As the light disappeared All Might suddenly stopped, it seemed as if he was hit with a paralyzing agent. Falling to the floor, All Might struggled to move, "I can't move…why?" He asked.
"I just stole your kinetic energy. All that momentum you built up just now is gone." Izuku raised his arm to show it sparking lightning. "You're fast, I'll give you that All Might. But compared to me, well, you might as well be standing still. Thanks for the extra boost though, I'll put it to good use."
As Izuku turned to leave he saw a blast of blue energy aimed right at his head. Quickly leaning back, Izuku matrix dodged the blast. Getting up Izuku found Mei, pointing the gun at him and with Nezu standing beside her. "You know, there are about 50 different ways I can take you down in 5 seconds."
"I know," said Mei. "But they all involve hurting me. You may be pissed but I know you'll never hurt me."
Mei blinked and when she opened her eyes Izuku was gone. "Are you sure about that?" He asked, standing right behind her.
Mei turned to fire but by the time she did Izuku was already behind her again. "I found myself doing things I never thought I would have these last few days. I can do just about anything now. But you're right I won't hurt you. So please Mei, if you really want to save me, stay out of my way."
"How are you even going to find Stain? Ever since that night he's been nowhere to be found." Explained Mei.
Izuku's face turned stern, "Don't worry, he'll find me."
In a flash, Izuku was gone from the holding area underneath UA. This place looked familiar, thinking back Izuku remembered this was the place Shirakumo took him when he first arrived in that other timeline.
Making his way outside Izuku ran into the city and was gone without a trace. "What do we do now?" Asked Mei.
"We continue on as planned. You can still track him can't you?" Asked Nezu, to which Mei nodded. "For now keep an eye on him, once Stain and Midoriya meet we move in. For now, let's get these two some help."
The Next Day
Izuku, as to not show up on Mei's radar, wasn't using his speed as he walked up to his parent's tombs. The sky was cloudy and gray, it seemed as if it was going to rain.
Stopping in front of his parent's graves, Izuku placed down some flowers. He took a moment and just stood there in silence before sighing, "All my life I've never had a goal. At one point it was getting dad out of prison. But now, now is different. I have only one goal right now, and that is to kill Stain. I swear, I will kill the man who killed you dad. And no one will get in my way."
Walking out of the cemetery Izuku stopped on the side of the road and raised his arm. With sparks jumping off his arm Izuku caused the ring on his finger to pop, causing the suit to spring out.
Rushing towards the suit Izuku put it on, "Let's go kill this bastard." He said to himself as he charged up his lightning.
But instead of running Izuku directed all that extra lightning into the air causing a massive bolt of green to light up the sky.
The bolt of lightning was seen for several hundred miles away and caught the attention of everyone who saw it.
UA saw it and began to mobilize their heroes, Mei saw it and clenched her fist, and last but not least, Stain saw it.
"And there it is. He's finally ready to face me." Stain then laughed. "Well, this is going to end up like the last time so might as well get it over with." With sparks of yellow lightning jumping off of his body, Stain made his way towards Izuku.
Within seconds Stain arrived in front of the cemetery to find Izuku. "Izuku, it's been a while. How are you?" Asked Stain. Izuku said nothing, "I see you're at a cemetery, visiting your father?"
Again no response, "You know, you should be thanking me." Izuku flinched. "I did you a favor by killing your dad. You can see it now too right? This world's flaws, what's right and wrong, what defines heroics and villainy. Yeah you see it, you did beat those guys nearly to death. Key word being nearly. You still didn't kill, why?" Asked Stain.
"I'm only going to kill one person, and that's you." Said Izuku.
"Oh I see, you still haven't truly suffered yet have you?" Asked Stain. "Don't worry about that, I can help with that. Unfortunately your dad is already dead, and so is your mom. Guess I won't get the chance of killing them. Wait, I know, there is still one, no two, people you care about."
Izuku flinched when Stain said that, "I don't care about anyone but you right now. I will kill you today."
Stain smiled underneath his mask, "Flattering, but sorry you won't. Now that you know what true loss is I will be the one to kill you. Once I do, I will fix this world and make it a better place."
Sparks of green lightning began to jump off Izuku, "The world will be a better place, when you're dead."
"That's more like it!" yelled Stain as he too had yellow sparks of lightning jumping off of him. "But you forget Izuku, you are far too slow!"
Stain then charged right at Izuku, appearing in front of him Stain pulled his fist back. But as he swung Izuku leaned back and dodged the punch. Surprised by this Stain smirked, "Impressive, but that was just dumb luck…"
Turning his head, Stain's eyes widened when Izuku already had his fist in front of his face. Looking at Izuku, Stain could see nothing but pure unadulterated rage in his eyes. 'Just like the one in my world. History repeats itself, even in another world. Even so, he's not as fast as the other one.'
Stain moved his head back and was confident that Izuku would miss. But as he moved back, Stain was surprised to see Izuku's fist moving faster. Then it hit, Izuku landed a blow to Stain's mask.
The punch knocked Stain several feet back, sliding to a stop the hero killer looked up. As he did, cracks began to show around his mask. "Get up," ordered Izuku. "We aren't done yet."
Stain stood up straight, "You've gotten faster, and in such a short amount of time. This isn't the result of training. No, this is the rage of a boy, a sad, alone, arrogant boy! Tell me, how does it feel?"
But instead of answering him with words Izuku instead answered him with his actions. Vibrating his fist at just the right speed Izuku launched his fist forward and created a blast of wind.
Stain dodged but as the blast went by it hit a building completely piercing through it and continuing through several more. Most of the buildings hit began to fall, sending innocent people running for their lives. "Now that's new." Said Stain as he watched the buildings fall.
Izuku repeated this attack over and over again, but Stain in turn began to run around him which in turn caused more damage to the city and hurt several people. Fed up, Izuku stopped his attack and ran towards Stain.
Seeing this Stain jumped into the air but as he did Izuku managed to grab his leg and slam him onto the ground. Bouncing off the floor, Stain was then grabbed by the neck, "This is going to hurt!" yelled Izuku as a loud boom echoed throughout all of Japan.
Taking off Izuku ran in a straight line and without regard to anyone or anything in his way, he ran through everything. Buildings, bridges, homes, schools, Stain smashed against them, from space you could see a streak of green light go up and down all of Japan.
Returning to the city, Izuku spun around and threw Stain onto the ground. Rolling to a stop Stain had blood dripping down from underneath his now cracked mask. "Let me ask you, how does it feel?" asked Izuku as he walked towards Stain. "Hurts doesn't it? Well it's nothing compared to what you did to me. This pain, this rage inside me, will never stop."
Groaning in pain Stain got to his knees, "Hurt? Pain? Oh Izuku, you have no idea what pain is." Stain then turned to find green lightning engulfing Izuku, his eyes burning green with power. "Those eyes, those are the same eyes I had when you took everything from me!"
Running in Izuku punched Stain across the face, cracking the mask further, "I don't know who you are, and honestly I don't care."
"Shame really, I'd hope you'd at least remember who I am. Whatever, I'm done playing games." In a flash of yellow Stain got up and ran into Izuku. The two lightning bolts crashed as Izuku was thrown into the air.
Spitting out blood, Izuku could barely see what had happened. Gritting his teeth Izuku landed on his feet and ran, the two speedsters crashed into each other and locked hands. This caused lightning of both colors to strike the area around them destroying it further. "I will kill you!" Yelled Izuku as he pushed against Stain.
"You're the person who's going to die. Just like your father!" Answered Stain leaning back and headbutting Izuku in the face.
Staggering back, Izuku lost his footing, Stain saw this and tried to attack. However it was a ploy by Izuku, as Stain got in close Izuku managed to kick him underneath the chin. The mask on Stain soon had parts starting to fall off revealing small parts of his face.
Civilians ran for their lives as they tried to avoid the carnage of the fight. One family was running down the street when a bolt of green lightning struck the building. An explosion went off causing a large section of the building to fall over them. The family looked up to see it coming but couldn't get out of the way, the two parents hugged their child in an effort to protect them.
But just as the wall was going to crush them another explosion blasted the wall into pieces. The family turned to find Bakugo in his hero costume, "Hey! Get your asses up and go! It isn't safe here!"
The family nodded and quickly ran, "Man they're really going at it." said Bakugo. "At this rate they're going to destroy the city."
Just then the ground beneath Bakugo began to shake, "It won't be just the city." said Mei appearing with a tablet in her hands. "The energy they are giving off is growing. At this rate they could level a large portion of Japan, if not the entire island. We need to stop them now."
All Might then appeared followed by several heroes, "And we will, but first we have to get everyone out of here."
"Right, class 1A listen up." Said Aizawa, turning to the entire class standing behind him. "Your top priority is the evacuation of civilians. Don't let anyone behind, help those you can, if you can't move on to the next person. Remember your training, I know it's still early to send you on missions but we need everyone for this. So move out and above all else, stay alive."
The class all nodded before splitting up into groups with veteran heroes. The only ones to stay were Mei, All Might, Aizawa, Bakugo, and Todoroki. "Hatsume, how sure are you this will work?" Asked Aizawa.
"About 60%, with the time we had, that's the best possible percentage." Explained Mei.
"It will have to do." Said All Might. "Remember your roles and execute them. Do them right and we might just save Midoriya."
Bakugo let out a few explosions in his hands, "Don't worry, one way or another I'll beat some sense into him."
Mei turned towards the battle and watched the bolts of lightning swirl around the two speedsters. "Izuku…."
AN: Dun Dun Dun! This is it! The final showdown between Stain and Izuku. Who will win? Who is Stain really? Is it the same from this world, or someone else? Take a guess and come back when the next chapter is out to find out what happens. FYI, I know who you think it is, it's not… In the meantime please stay safe!
