Chapter 82:
Zach lay back on his bed with the biggest grin on his face that it almost hurt. He had his hands interlocked behind his head and was not even laying down in Nightmare form because he could not think about villains or Kurogiri or anything related to them at the moment. Zach let out a long breath and then closed his mouth again, and he pressed his lips into each other imagining a feeling on them, and he closed his eyes again while thinking back on that. He let out another enamored sigh while thinking about pulling away from the girl who had never looked more beautiful to him than in that moment. Zach shot his eyes open and then threw both of his arms from behind his head up in the air over his flat body. He had his fists clenched and pumped them up in the air a few more times before dropping them to his sides and letting out a deep breath to try and calm down.
There's class tomorrow! I have to, I have to at least try and get some sleep. Sleep? How am I supposed to sleep right now?! Zach started smiling again and he lifted his left hand to his lips, then he pulled it away fast instead of brushing them with his fingers which he was afraid might ruin the feeling. Oh man. That was amazing! That was- I really- The most amazing and beautiful and smartest girl in our class, and I kissed her! No, we kissed. We kissed! Yes! Haha, hahaha! Zach started laughing aloud and he tried holding it back since he knew he would look weird just laying there laughing to himself. His mood was just, the best though.
Knock Knock
Zach lifted up fast, his eyes widening and his thoughts getting shaken as he had been in his own world. Is it late? I wish I had stayed in there longer, but I didn't want to push anything- her, or, Zach shook his head and swung his legs off his bed. He was not tired or anything so he picked up his phone and checked the time while walking over towards the door. Could it be, Momo? Coming to my room this late so, so we- Zach's face brightened red and he pursed his lips together again while his heart pounded a thousand times a minute. "Yeah?" Zach asked, trying to keep his voice cool and collected, hiding his excitement and hesitating behind the door so he could steady his expression.
"Hey Zach," a voice said on the other side of the door that filled Zach with disappointment.
"Oh," Zach muttered, and the boy on the other side of the door opened his eyes wide. Zach opened up the door and did not have the same look on his face that he had when making that disappointed 'oh.' "Hey Midoriya," Zach greeted, and he moved to the side to let his friend inside his room that had the lights on now. "Want to come in?"
"Um," Midoriya started. A bead of sweat dripped down the side of his face as he felt like he had just done something wrong, for some reason. "Yeah, if it's no trouble. I had something-"
"Yeah it's fine," Zach cut off, realizing that Midoriya probably noticed his disappointment. He shook his head around and reminded himself the reason he had left Yaoyorozu's room in the first place. Slow. I, that would have been bad actually. Yeah, bad, Zach thought, though he was not really convincing himself with his half-hearted relief.
Zach walked over and sat on his bed and motioned for his chair since Midoriya seemed like he might just stay standing otherwise. Midoriya had a really serious look on his face all of a sudden, but he got some more sweat on his face as Zach saw that look and still just nodded at his chair again for Midoriya to sit. Talking with you always winds up getting so serious. Kaminari's a lot easier to talk to, because things are usually just not as dark. But lay it on me. What's wrong tonight?
"Zach," Midoriya began while still on his feet, and Zach tried making his expression look serious too. He had been feeling so good though, that he could not get into a serious mood and was just feeling excited and bouncy as he gave Midoriya his best intense look. Then Zach's look became a lot more intense as Midoriya whispered, "Two nights ago, I talked with All For One."
"What?" Zach whispered, his eyes shooting wide before narrowing in his intense expression. "You found him-"
"No," Midoriya shook his head. He hesitated, but he could see Zach was really focused now so he stepped closer they could have their talk in quieter voices. Midoriya had not known if he should come up here and have the conversation, but he had already had it with All Might. He did not ask All Might whether or not he should tell Zach either, even though he had considered doing so. I was the one who told Zach about All For One, and One For All. If I'm going to tell you these things, and if I'm going to help you… And I know you will talk to me about this whereas Bakugo would just tell me to shut up, or something. Midoriya took a deep breath and then started to his only friend in the building with whom he could talk about this.
Two Nights Ago…
"Midoriya, Izuku," a voice said behind Midoriya that made him freeze with sweat covering his entire body.
He heard a crash in the next room over where Wonderlass was fighting and arresting other villains. Midoriya's injuries from earlier in the week had been healed, and he had gone with Wonderlass to the raid on a small League of Villains hideout she had discovered while he was in the hospital. It was his final night of the internship, and he was panting with his fists still balled as the second-in-command of the small base lay unconscious on the ground in front of him. Midoriya had his green costume on with the mask down bunched up behind his neck, and the boy with curly dark-green hair started turning his head with his eyes huge at how close that voice sounded to him.
"Do not worry," the voice continued, and Midoriya's eyes opened wide as he saw the wall behind him had changed. It had been black and he just now realized it was a giant tv screen, one that was still dark but only because the room on the other side of the screen was dark too. In the room there was a chair close up to the screen, a man sitting back on it with an industrial mask over his face and a black outfit on over his body. "I am not actually there with you, I just wanted to talk." All For One's face was covered completely by the black mask over it, but Midoriya swore he could hear the man smiling.
Sweat covered the boy's face even if he was not in the presence of the man speaking to him. He stared at the screen and his fists shook but he kept them clenched at his sides. "Ohh? That's quite the look," All For One started. "I wouldn't expect anything less from the one All Might chose," All For One chuckled darkly and Midoriya could not help but feel chills down his spine at the sound of that.
"All, For, One," Midoriya finally said. He stared at the villain, the most evil villain he had ever seen before. He gulped but then grit his teeth thinking about the night of Camino Ward. Midoriya's fists shook harder at his sides, and then he said, "Where are you?"
"Why? Would you come running to get me? Even with One For All just barely under your control?" All For One taunted and the boy in front of him grit his teeth even harder at the sound of it.
"In your state-"
"In my state?" All For One cut in, lifting his tone and waiting for Midoriya to finish. He chuckled darkly again and then continued in his low, ominous voice, "There was a man who escaped Tartaros with me." Midoriya got a confused look in his eyes as to what All For One started talking about out of the blue, and then his eyes opened wide and the top half of his face turned blue while All For One continued. "Muscular was very vocal about you after we escaped. He could not wait to kill you, and I believe that young Kota was going to be his way of drawing you out. I am surprised a man like him could think that much through."
Kota-kun! Midoriya's shaking fists clenched tighter and his eyes were full of horror at what All For One was saying. "If he-"
"Muscular also talked about your fight, and it seemed to me that his Quirk was one that could have defeated you had it been in the hands of someone more capable. So I took it," Midoriya froze and his blood ran cold as All For One rose up his right arm, and his muscles ripped out of his skin and through his shirt to show off a Quirk that Midoriya knew well. It was the same Quirk that made his right arm look the way it did covered in scar tissue. There was no doubt now about what All For One was saying, and it chilled the kid who had no idea how to react to hearing this now. "Do not worry. I am not so petty as to kill that child, just to draw you out. You see, I do not hate you like I hated All Might. Hate, All Might," All For One corrected himself. He said it at first like he was over his grudge now that All Might no longer had his power, but he shook his head as saying it aloud told him how much of a lie it was.
"Why, are you telling me this?" Midoriya whispered. "What do you have to gain, from contacting me right now? How did you even know I was-" Midoriya stopped asking the last part, as he did not feel like he wanted to know the answer to that question.
"Because it was about time we met," All For One replied. He took a deep breath and leaned back in his chair more before continuing, "You are the holder of One For All now. The next in a long line to face me. I can't wait to see what this generation's holder has for me." All For One chuckled while Midoriya pulled back from the screen, because the man speaking to him was treating it like it was all one big game. "It's always the same. Killing or crippling the One For All holders one by one. Sooner or later this Quirk I created will die. I wonder," he paused and leaned back forward, then said in a lower voice, "Will you be the final holder, when it's your turn to bite the bullet?"
All For One and Midoriya stared back at each other, and then the villain answered himself, "It will." Midoriya's eyes opened wider, and All For One continued in a low, deep voice, "I'm tired of this back and forth. And, well, One For All may get too powerful if a few more iterations were to pass. So you will die, and it will die with you," All For One stated. He then laughed at the look of fear on Midoriya's face. The boy realized what the laughter was for and tried gritting his teeth in anger instead. All For One started in a more taunting tone, "All Might was the strongest One For All holder, in both mind and body, saving everyone with a smile. Yet you, Midoriya Izuku, let Sazaki get tortured. You let the peaceful world All Might created fall apart in his absence. And you still can't control One For All!"
Midoriya's face pulled back and he unclenched his jaw with his eyes huge at what the villain just said to him. The things that haunted him the most, All For One knew them all and threw them in his face in the worst taunt he could think of. Zach, All Might, why? Why do I keep failing?! "Where are you?!" Midoriya shouted. I'll stop him! I'll- I have to!
"Don't worry, I'll find ack- ka-," All For One started coughing and the screen shut off. Midoriya blinked a few times in confusion, as the man was about to end on something really menacing only to be cut off like that. Then the screen he was looking at that just turned black got cracks all over it, and a villain smashed through the wall behind it with Wonderlass' fist imbedded in his chest…
Present
"…All For One is evil, the worst evil in the world," Midoriya hesitated and balled his fists at his sides where he stood in front of Zach. "But," he continued, feeling the same way he had in that room now as he faced the boy All For One had taunted him with. "But he wasn't wrong-"
"Yes he was," Zach said. He kept sitting on his bed while Midoriya shot his clenched eyes back open. He could not continue and start an apology that he had mustered up the strength to get to after his regret had hit the tipping point. "It's not your fault. None of that-"
"That's not true," Midoriya said, shaking his head at the black-haired boy on the bed in front of him. "I have All Might's power. I, I'm supposed to be the one-"
"You might think you're the chosen one, Midoriya," Zach said. Midoriya's eyes started opening wide and he got a bead of sweat on the side of his face at how calmly Zach was taking this. As shocking as this was to hear though, to Zach it seemed like Midoriya was using it to try and apologize to him again for something he had already apologized for a hundred times. Zach continued in a relaxed way, "But it's not up to you alone. We all bear the burden of stopping All For One, and getting the world back to the peaceful place it was at with All Might. And how many times do I have to tell you not to blame yourself for what happened to me? That's on me, and it's on the villains who did those things to me. Mainly them," Zach added, to show Midoriya that he was not even mostly blaming himself (though that was to help calm his friend down).
"But I still haven't-"
"One For All gets stronger with each generation, right?" Zach asked. Midoriya gave his friend a confused look while Zach just smiled back at him. He held up his left palm and continued like it was obvious, "Then of course this time around it's going to be harder for the One For All holder to get used to the power. After all the power All Might must have added to your Quirk that he didn't have to get used to himself back when he got it. Think about it, there was no way you'd be able to get used to that power in a year. Even what you have right now, is stronger than pretty much anyone, and you're still only a fraction of the way through that power."
Midoriya started breathing faster and he looked down at his right hand that he rose in front of his stomach. Zach smiled as he saw how wide-eyed his friend was, though lacking the soul-crushing regret in those plate-sized eyes that he saw before. "All Might picked you for a reason. All For One is good at messing with people though. You just, can't let what he said get to you." Like I sometimes still do. "…I have brought your associates back as well. Even this boy… And this, thing." The only time All For One ever acknowledged him, when the man had turned to him and called him a "thing" in Camino Ward, it still haunted him sometimes.
It was worse considering what he heard only a few days later at his court case. "How could I bring that thing into my house?" How his aunt had worded what she said on the stand before calling him a monster, it was worse than when she had actually said the word 'monster.' Calling him a 'thing' after All For One had made him question his own existence already, it had cemented what the villain said as something more than just to mess with his head. Zach shook his head around as he thought about this, and he muttered to himself, "Take your own advice." Zach lifted his gaze up to Midoriya and smiled again, "As long as we keep training, we'll be able to stop him. It sounds like he's still not at his strongest, so we have time."
And if you can't do it Midoriya. If he gets too strong again and returns… I'm killing him. Taking the glove off and killing the one man who deserves it more than anyone. And, I think I could do it without hurting my own soul. For someone like him, or Chemist, Shigaraki… They're the types, I could kill. Zach kept smiling at Midoriya who started replying with a smile on his face too and then apologized once more. This time his apology was for showing up and being all depressed though, saying that Zach was right and he should be better than that. Zach decided not to tell him to stop apologizing this time and just accepted it before telling Midoriya to go get some sleep so they could be well rested for class tomorrow.
As Midoriya left Zach's room, Zach let out a yawn and smiled as that conversation had actually tired him out. He thought about the reason he had been unable to get tired though, and he stopped feeling that exhaustion which made him switch topics in his head to get back to something that would let him sleep. That helped Midoriya out. Which means it'll help stop All For One if Midoriya's the one fated to fight him, if I don't get the chance to kill him first. It also means it'll help a lot of people though, not just if Midoriya beats All For One, but just because anything I can do to help him will help thousands, probably millions. Billions? Who knows? I'm glad, someone like you takes my advice sometimes. We're pretty important, I think. The world is relying on us. I'll do things my way. You do them yours. And whenever we can, let's help each other out. Zach was still smiling, but thoughts of Midoriya and him working together were not enough to keep him awake, and he slipped into a deep sleep.
On Monday the first day the U.A. hero course students were returning from their week-long internships, the entire school was abuzz with stories and rumors about the situation of Japan. They had been scattered all over the country, and it was the first day that everyone was around to spread information and talk to people outside of their classes about what they had seen. The other courses' students were as interested as the students in hero courses, as all of them were going out into the same world when they graduated. The business and support course kids all needed to know about the scenarios and operations of heroes outside of what they heard on the news too.
Before the first period of the day, enough rumors and stories had reached the ears of the Class 2-A students that their classroom was loud and full of talking students on the hot early-June morning. It was humid outside and the sun coming through the windows was making some of them sweat more than they already were from the intense conversations they were having. "Wait, I thought you and Tetsutetsu were together at your agency?" Mineta asked the red-haired boy in front of him retelling something his friend from Class B had told him earlier.
"Why does everyone think that?" Kirishima asked in annoyance. We're not that similar!
"Hey Zach, Midoriya," Ashido turned to where Kaminari and Sero were standing next to Zach's seat and then behind her to where Uraraka was standing next to Midoriya's seat. "I heard that Kendo was up at the Trigger lab raid you guys went on."
Zach nodded back over to the pink girl who got an even more confused look on her face as she thought it was a rumor and wanted to get it exposed right there. "She did?" Mineta asked in much more surprise. He spun from Kirishima's seat and to Zach and shouted while pointing a finger at him, "She wasn't in any of the press conferences about it!"
"I didn't, actually see her," Midoriya started while lifting a hand and scratching his head with it. His left arm was muscular and his school uniform actually looked tighter on him than usual as he rose a hand and scratched his head. He did not notice as much as Ashido who looked to his arm as Midoriya continued (something Uraraka saw while looking her way). "But I heard that she was there," Midoriya agreed with Zach's nod.
"I saw her," Zach said to confirm it. "She arrived with the reinforcements though, and all of those heroes didn't go up to the press conference."
Ashido nodded as that made sense to her, and then she spun as did most people in the room as Iida ran up to the front. "Everyone get in your seats! Mother Russia sensei will be here momentarily and we must show her respect-" Iida was swinging his right arm out and pulling it up to make right angles with his elbow, but he stopped as everyone ran and got in their seats before he could finish telling them to. What he was saying though got them all in their seats fast, then Iida rushed back to his own as he was the only one left standing now which Sero called up to him.
Zach felt a tap on his shoulder and he tilted his head back to look behind him. Jirou was leaning forward over her seat a bit and she lifted her eyebrows at Zach a couple of times, but as she thought he was going to get a red tint on his face, Zach just bounced his eyebrows back at her with a bigger smirk. Jirou's face turned red and she darted her eyes to Kaminari who spotted the look and immediately turned the other way like he had not been watching at all. Jirou's right earphone jack extended out from her ear and started slithering over towards him, then the door opened and Jirou retracted it fast while sitting up in her seat. You idiot, Jirou thought, though she held off on smacking him for blabbing, for now. Not like I've done a much better job, Jirou thought, a bead of sweat rolling down the side of her face.
Mother Russia came in and talked to them a bit about their work over the internships. She told them they all did well at representing U.A. during their short internships, and she said she heard many of them were going to continue on with as work interns in the coming months, maybe even spending their summer break on a long-term internship with their pro heroes. This got the rest of the class looking around at each other as not many of them had heard about this yet. Shoji looked next to him to see what Tokoyami thought, but then his eyes widened under his silver bangs as Tokoyami nodded with a serious look on his face as one of the people Mother Russia was talking about there.
Todoroki hummed to himself while thinking about the hero he had gone to intern with over the past week. Do I want to continue there? The reason I did not go to Dad's agency was to get more variety, become more spontaneous. Is choosing a single new hero and deciding to follow that path what I want? Then again, learning new things for only a week at a time only to jump to a new one is not a good plan either. Maybe an extension through the summer would be…
Wonderlass didn't want me coming back. I don't know what I did wrong. She said I did well, before kicking me out the other day, Midoriya thought with beads of sweat dripping down the sides of his face. She seemed like she was in a hurry too. She was rushing around a lot in those last days of the internship.
Zach started frowning a bit as Mother Russia talked on these things, but he could not help from smiling after only a few seconds. I had thousands of internship offers. I know I don't really have the connections to ask for a work internship, but there have to be ways. Some people must want Lifebringer to come to them. I still need the money. I don't have any cash to my name, and I need money more than ever now. I have stuff to spend it on now. Like dinners, or maybe a movie… Zach's cheeks tinted a little red but he kept smiling and tried to focus on hero activities while he was in class at least.
The morning classes went by quickly once homeroom was over. Math, English, art, Zach focused as best he could while trying to conceal a smile that was doing its best to let everyone in the room know what had happened, or at least that's what Zach thought. Every time a corner of his lips lifted the smallest bit he felt like everyone would be able to tell what he was grinning about and tried to calm himself down. When it was time for lunch though, he did not really care much anymore as there were things he wanted to talk about with Momo who he looked towards while the class was packing their stuff away.
Most people started heading out to the cafeteria, but as Jirou was about to walk past Zach she stopped for a second. The girl a couple of inches shorter than Zach whispered to him with a grin on her face, "Kaminari tells me you're planning on doing something bold. Good luck," she said in a teasing voice, and she was ready for the usually-shy boy next to her to get red in the cheeks this time. He just smiled back at her though and this time he could not stop himself from moving his lips apart so his teeth were all showing in his smile. "What?" Jirou asked confusedly. Zach shrugged like it was nothing and Jirou hummed but then turned to walk after Kaminari who was looking back at her.
I thought Momo must have told you when you gave me that look before. I'm glad I didn't say anything in response. Good move! Though, is it really… does it really have to be a secret? Does she want it to be? She didn't tell Jirou, but I mean I haven't told Kaminari yet- It's only been what? 12 hours? A little more, actually. Zach shook his head and then walked over towards Yaoyorozu who was reaching the front of the room and looking towards him. Jirou and Kaminari were near the door and waited for their best friends who started for the cafeteria with them.
The four of them sat together at lunch with Sero and Ashido across from each other on Zach and Momo's other side as their closest friends. Kaminari and Jirou glanced in a couple of times at the two who were talking about what Mother Russia told them that morning, and Ashido jumped in to say that she was going to call up Rainbow Sparkles to see if she would let her do a summer internship which sounded like a lot of fun to her.
"I wonder what those of us who don't get summer internships will do?" Zach began.
Sero picked up a piece of friend chicken on his plate and said while looking at his friend on his left side, "Bet they'll have us stay on campus the whole time if we're not doing anything productive. Maybe let our parents come visit sometimes, but I can't see them letting us just go for a month or so."
"Yeah, me neither," Zach agreed. "Maybe we'll have a training camp thing too, though probably on-campus this time."
"Probably," Ashido agreed with a loud sigh of disappointment. Up until they were attacked in the training forest, the previous year's summer camp was actually kind-of fun. Plus, she had been part of the group stuck in extra lessons which she figured she could get out of this time after all she had learned. The pink girl with horns sticking out of her hair started smiling after a few seconds though, thinking about how big their campus was and especially some of the training grounds on the outsides which were massive. "That'd still be fun though!"
"First we'll have finals though," Yaoyorozu said to the others who were getting to excited on the idea of the summer. "You all must study hard this time as well-" Every one of them had been to Yaoyorozu's study session at her house the year before for the final exam, and all at once they started asking if she could help them out again. None of them wanted to miss out on whatever fun training camp they were just imagining was, and even though they had all passed the written exam the year before, they knew not to get cocky about it.
Kaminari leaned in to ask too, and Jirou sweatdropped but knew there was some more she could learn as well. She glanced next to her at Yaoyorozu though with an eyebrow lifted at her friend who was as bouncy as ever and replying happily to them all that they wanted her help again. Then she saw Momo look across the table to Zach who agreed with Sero that he could use a bit of help with math, even though Zach thought about how his math grade was actually doing really well right now. Any excuse was a good one though, and he smiled back at the girl who looked at him in a way that made Jirou's heart start racing. No. Did, did he already- she darted her eyes to Momo and back to Zach again though Ashido said something that changed the focus of the conversation and made them look away from each other. No. No way. They wouldn't be this calm right now. They, they wouldn't be… Jirou's eyes shifted from one of them to the other while pretending like she was not watching, and their moods were so good that her suspicions were almost being confirmed. Then again, she did not see any reason for them not to be in good moods right now which was why she was hesitating to jump to conclusions.
I'll ask her as soon as we're back to the dorms, Jirou finally told herself, accepting that she would just have to stay in suspense for a little longer. If something happened you should have told me right away! I told you as soon as we had a moment- so, maybe it just happened then? When?! Maybe I'm overthinking this. Maybe it's nothing, Jirou extended her left earphone jack down next to her and plugged it into the seat for a second. Her eyes widened and her own heart started beating faster, but nowhere near as fast as the girl on her left side and the boy across the table from her. Zach's right foot had just bumped into Yaoyorozu's foot under the table though, and then hers brushed into his a second later in two simple movements that had the two of them desperately hiding blushes as they continued a conversation with the others.
What is going on? Jirou thought, but she was left frustrated as lunch ended with nothing else of interest happening. They all returned to the classroom and Jirou decided to ask after school as was her original plan, though she was getting more suspicious with every look the two she was curious about shared.
Zach sat through his last couple of classes with a hesitant look on his face while he focused on the teachers. What's going on? What were we doing at lunch? She noticed my foot touch hers right? And she didn't just accidentally bump it- no that look in her eyes was, what was it? We haven't really talked differently today than we did yesterday, or any other day though… But that's because other people are all around, or, but does that mean we don't act differently in any situation where we aren't alone together? I'm not, I don't know if that's…
Zach's thoughts were as focused on this as his focused face made him look interested in the class. He figured Cementoss might ask him a question about the book they were reading and decided he should probably be more focused so he was not caught off guard. A minute after thinking that though, Cementoss probably could have asked him a question about literature and Zach would have responded with numbers since he forgot what class he was even in when he caught a glimpse of the clock. It's so close to after school! What then? What does she- do we- I have no idea what to do right now! Zach's eyes were wide and he tried to steady his expression while looking down to the novel on his desk.
Kaminari glanced to his left and he smirked before looking back at his book so Cementoss would not wonder why he was grinning like that. There we go, Kaminari thought. You were looking too confident all morning, but now that the idea of actually doing it comes up! I bet you asked her earlier to talk after school, and just doing that made you super hyped. Now is the hard part dude. You can do it! Kaminari gave a cheer of encouragement in his head and then had to stand up and try to answer Cementoss' question that got him confused and made the teacher scold him for not paying attention.
Kaminari's probably thinking the same kinds of things about Jirou. Or he's just not focused on class… Which is entirely possible for him. Zach smiled as he heard Jirou whisper a tease towards Kaminari as he was sitting back down after apologizing to Cementoss sensei. His smile only lasted a second though as he heard the tone in Jirou's voice that sounded similar to how she always spoke to Kaminari. Maybe it's because she's trying to keep it a secret. Or, maybe you just don't change the way… That can't be right. Things are different now. They have to be. I, don't have to tiptoe around- or, what did I decide to tell her? Are things different enough now that I feel comfortable just telling her everything? No?! Wait, what did I do then- no, she hasn't asked, and I don't have to be open about everything. Everyone has- well maybe they don't have as big of secrets… Are we really just supposed to act like normal?
That doesn't seem right. Are we… are the two of us… Oh man, but Momo's not the kind of- but neither of us had- I don't know! Zach's eyes widened, But I can't not know! School's about to end! What is next? What do I do? How do I- what I do right here matters more than anything! It'll set the tone, or the pace? Well we do that together- which means she could totally shut down anything I try to do if that's not what I'm supposed to…
Somehow time sped up to the end of the day. Zach swore minutes started skipping at some point, because all of a sudden he was getting out of his seat. He finished packing his things and his heart started racing even faster as he looked back towards Momo.
Yaoyorozu was moving forward towards the front of the room and she got a bigger smile on her face as she saw Zach looking towards her. He waited for her to come up and then walked over towards her, asking, "Want to walk back tog-"
"Yes," Yaoyorozu said, and she turned to the door quickly as to not make an awkward moment about how she just cut him off too fast to agree. Zach started walking with her and he felt a sense of relief but also anxiety as she was quick to respond. "I personally enjoyed the passages Cementoss sensei had us reading…"
Why'd she stop me from finishing? Was she just hoping I would ask already so she knew- or is it because we're still technically in the classroom, hallway now, but people could see us? Yet people can always see us. Walking together back to the dorms isn't even all that weird since I walk with you a lot anyway. Or, sometimes at least. Not too often, but we're both leaving behind the person we walk with most often right now without saying anything about it. That's great! Well, fine. It's cool. Totally cool. Zach glanced at the taller girl who just asked a question about their final class, and Zach lifted his left hand to the side of his head. He scratched his hand through his wavy black hair and admitted he had not been paying too close attention. "I was distracted, by something," Zach said, finishing in a way that suddenly made him tense up.
Yaoyorozu paused for a second and then replied softly, "Oh. Well, then we must review today's class in the final prep we do-"
"Oh yeah," Zach said, thinking back on what they talked about at lunch. "I wonder if they'd let us use a room at the school for the study session. Since, we won't be able to use your hall." Zach stretched the word and Momo smiled more right before Zach started talking about how a room that big should be added into their dorm, though then they'd need to make the building twice as large.
"I think the next time you visit my house I will take you on a tour. You would be amazed by the large rooms," Momo told the boy next to her, a bubbly look on her face as it seemed Zach was so amazed by the rooms he would be happy to see more. A bead of sweat formed on the right side of Zach's face though as he totally believed her. He could tell the other rooms were larger just from what they saw on their way to the hall in that Yaoyorozu mansion visit. "You all did not see the garden either while you were there. I would love to show you the…"
Behind Zach and Yaoyorozu, back down the hall ten meters or so with a couple of others between them, Kaminari walked with his eyes peeled up ahead at the pair walking with each other. Jirou had left with him, though Mineta, Sero, Kirishima, and Ashido were all walking with them too as they had walked out right behind them and included the two in front of them in their conversation. Jirou glanced back at Ashido who said something to her, though she replied quickly before looking up ahead towards Yaoyorozu's back again. Her taller friend was having such a casual conversation with Zach but she caught glimpses of the sides of their faces as they walked and it made her hum in suspicion.
"Ooh, Yao-momo and Zach walking with each other today?" Ashido leaned forward as she looked up to where Jirou was looking.
Sero glanced to his left at Ashido when he heard this while talking to Kirishima on his other side. He opened his mouth to say something with a grin on his face, but Mineta spoke up quickly first, "Don't you know?" Kaminari looked back at Mineta and lifted his eyebrows, only to crack a big grin as Mineta pointed a finger ahead and said, "Ever since he started calling her 'Momo,' I knew something was up. But the two of them, are secret lovers-"
Ashido slammed a fist down on Mineta's head and he grabbed the spot and yelped. "Don't be a perv," Ashido said. "Though I totally agree," Ashido whispered a second later, making Jirou roll her eyes in front of her and Sero to let out a laugh. They could tell Ashido was joking about it but it also sounded in the pink girl's voice that she wished it were true.
Sero turned back to Kirishima and asked about something he thought about while Kirishima was speaking on his internship. They were nearing the door outside to the street back to their dorm, and as Kirishima answered Sero his eyes focused up ahead with a confused look on his face at what he was seeing. They're, acting weird, Kirishima thought. He did not think anything of Zach and Yaoyorozu walking back together as it was not a rare of an occurrence for them to hang out, but when the others brought his attention back to it for a second he got a strange feeling something was up. What's Zach look nervous about? He's usually cool-headed.
Ah! We really are just having a normal conversation! What is- I should- I want to! It's bad though. It could be. It could be terrible! What if I…
Jirou walked outside and she slowed down while looking ahead towards the two heading back towards the dorms. Zach was walking on Yaoyorozu's right side, which looked to her like what he always did when he kept his right hand farther from them whenever he could. Even inside the black glove on his right hand, Zach stood on her right side so his right hand was farther from her. There was an ulterior reason Zach was on Yaoyorozu's right though, though the reason coincided with the fact that he could not, or would not touch Yaoyorozu with his right hand. Jirou's bottom lip started to lower as she saw Zach's left hand moving over, and she came to a stop with her eyes opening wide as Zach's hand touched Momo's.
Yaoyorozu's hand turned and her fingers opened and interlocked with Zach's between them. Immediate relief flooded through Zach, along with other feelings as his chest nearly exploded. Not only had Momo not pulled away, but her hand was so quick to hold his back that he believed she was waiting for him to do it, and it was definitely the right thing to do. All the fears and worries that had been bugging him through class faded away, because things were different now. As much as he was worried they hadn't, that maybe the kiss didn't mean… anything. She held his hand back and he saw a pink shade on her cheeks to his left. Man, I wish I was taller, Zach thought as he suddenly realized once again how beautiful the girl next to him was.
I'm holding his hand. This is wonderful! My heart is pounding and I have never felt these things before! Yaoyorozu hesitated for a second and then continued the sentence she was just saying, though with a smaller more pursed smile now. She had to hold back the huge happy look trying to cover her face if she wanted to continue their conversation, even while holding hands.
Yaoyorozu kept talking, and Zach turned and listened with a similar look on his face to hers. Meanwhile, Mineta turned his head from looking right at Sero. He looked forward and then missed his footing stepping down with his right foot, face-faulting with his arms thrown up over the top of his head. Ashido's jaw dropped and her eyes bulged, while Jirou and Kaminari both looked forward with their bottom lips lowered and eyes wide too.
That's it?! Kaminari thought with his bottom lip dropping even farther. He shook his head around in shock, So smooth! He just put his hand in- oh wait, did he go ahead with it last night? He said he was going to wait for a good moment. Guess he went and made one! "About time," Kaminari finally remarked and let out a laugh.
Sero and Kirishima had gawked towards the two up ahead of them too. Those two apparently were too absorbed to notice this group of their classmates who had just stopped short and started gawking at them. Sero shook his head after a second and then turned to Kirishima again with a grin covering the bottom half of his face, "Who didn't see that coming?"
Kirishima cracked a grin himself and then laughed as the thought had crossed his mind as much as he didn't get into conversations about stuff like that often. Their reactions were light though, and the ones on their left were quick to sprint forward as soon as the shock wore off the smallest amount. Ashido closed her mouth and let out a shriek which had the two up ahead of them turning farther around. Ashido started running forward and right past Jirou, while Mineta scrambled forward on his hands and feet too before pushing himself back up to run with his eyes as big as plates. I didn't actually mean it! Mineta thought, though now there were dozens of crazy thoughts going through his head.
Zach's hand slid out of Momo's as he turned, and he got slightly annoyed at Mineta. His annoyance was replaced by anxiety though as Mineta and Ashido started rapidly asking the two of them what that was about, and if they were dating. "Dating?!" I want to say yes but we haven't- but I want to ask her on one, is it weird we haven't dated yet? Should I say we've only kissed- NO! That would be the Worst thing to say right now!
"I don't see what the big deal is," Kaminari said as he continued forward, spotting a look on Zach's face that showed he was feeling super nervous all of a sudden. Momo's eyes widened a bit too, but Mineta had asked it at Zach in his loud voice. Sero and Kirishima looked forward and between them at Kaminari who smirked while Jirou's eyes started going huge, her head turning to him with her cheeks getting red. She started opening her mouth, but Kaminari continued first, "Jirou and I are going out too."
"Wait, what?" Sero said, lifting his eyebrows and then turning to the left at the short girl with long earphone jacks who had dropped her jaw right there. She spun back to Sero and Kirishima and opened her mouth to deny it like they each thought she was going to do, and which she knew they were expecting. She froze though with her mouth open, darting her eyes to Kaminari again and seeing him smirking at her while continuing to walk, his hands down in his pockets. Sero's eyes actually started widening as Jirou did not immediately deny it, and every second she hesitated looking like she did not know what to say made Sero's jaw drop more. "Alright that one, I didn't see coming-"
Mineta slowly turned his head and he looked behind him with his jaw dropped far again. "Wh-wh-wh-" he turned the other way, then back to Kaminari, and he pointed his hand around at the four who he could not believe at this point. "What is happening?" Mineta brought his pointing hand up to the purple balls on top of his head and closed his eyes. He shook his head around for a second, Am I dreaming? This seems like a weird dream though!
"Aha! So picking the same internship," Ashido exclaimed, spinning and pointing towards Jirou and Kaminari with a huge smile on her face. "That was just a way for the two of you to get a week away together! A private room probably-"
"Stop," Jirou said in a deadpan voice.
Then Jirou gawked and spun to Kaminari who had replied at the same time in a calm fashion, "Pretty much."
"Whoa really?" Sero asked in surprise as he did not think Ashido was onto anything there.
Jirou spun with her jaw dropping more as Sero actually believed Kaminari, then she swung out her right earphone jack to hit Kaminari with before he could respond. "That is not, the reason. We weren't even going out before the-" Jirou paused as those words came out of her mouth, confirming what she had yet to deny yet had not agreed with yet. This made Kaminari grin more, which made her smack him again with her earphone jack though he pulled away this time laughing at the way she was getting flustered.
"Oh, this is so weird," Mineta whispered when he opened his eyes and watched as everyone started walking past him, as the group had continued on again back towards the dorms. Zach and Yaoyorozu had held back and started walking with them in the group, and they had not started holding hands again which both of them were thinking about. Not the time anymore? I guess. No need to be all in everyone's face about it… even though I totally could be, since she's just the best girl at U.A. and wants to hold my hand and stuff. Stuff… Zach's Adam's apple bounced in his neck and he hoped no one saw how big a gulp he just did.
"Hey Uraraka," Midoriya said as he looked over the top of the couch and saw a short brown-haired girl walking their way. He, Iida, and Todoroki were sitting in the common area when he spotted the girl coming out from the stairwell. She had huge eyes and Midoriya's friendly look as he called over to her started to shift as she looked towards him with a mind-blown expression. "Uraraka?"
"Is something wrong Uraraka-kun?" Iida questioned the girl walking towards them now.
Uraraka shook her head at the class rep so he would not worry, but Todoroki also had a mildly interested look on his face too at her strange expression. Uraraka walked right over and sat down next to Deku on the couch, though she sat away from him so she was closer towards the arm rest than the middle of the couch. Something strange is happening. What if it affects us too? Maybe, I should scoot in a bit- no no no. This is strange. Something smells fishy, or something, Uraraka hummed and had a serious look on her face as she brought her right hand up in front of her mouth. "But what if it really is a conspiracy? There could be something behind it…"
Uraraka's muttering?! Midoriya thought, his eyes widening as he looked at the girl next to him on the couch. "Um, Uraraka," Midoriya cut in as the girl started talking to herself, which was making him stare at her with huge eyes. "What're you talking about?" He had been close enough to hear what she was saying, and it sounded serious to him.
"It's just," Uraraka started, and then she looked around at the other two on the couches too who she could see were waiting. "Well," Uraraka tried to push her paranoia away and say it as normally as she could. "Kaminari and Jirou are, dating," Uraraka started. Midoriya lifted his eyebrows up and looked at Uraraka in surprise, then his eyes shot open much wider as she added, "And Zach and Momo are, going out too?" Uraraka ended on a question while lowering her gaze down to her hands that she curled into confused fists in front of her a few times.
Iida's jaw dropped even though he had kept just mildly surprised by the first part of what Uraraka said. Midoriya's dropped too, though his eyes shot open wide a second later and he looked down at the floor in shock. Was it before yesterday? He didn't say anything last night- Is that why?! He seemed to be in such a good mood despite what I was telling him about All For One! Then, he really… Midoriya thought about the hospital and the call Zach received when he was leaving Midoriya's hospital room. How long has this been going on?
Todoroki did not react at all hearing about Kaminari and Jirou. His eyebrows did lift up a bit though at that next part. "Really?" He asked, as Uraraka did not seem very sure of herself and actually looked to be questioning her existence as everyone in their class started dating each other at the same time. Uraraka shook her head around and lifted her gaze to Todoroki, and in a serious way she gave him a single nod to show she was sure about it.
Walking out of the kitchen, Kirishima was talking on the same subject to the spiky-haired blond walking with him who got a tick mark on the side of his head.
"Who the fuck cares?" Bakugo snapped, and Kirishima shrugged but then added, "Oh yeah and Kaminari and Jirou started dating too."
Bakugo lifted up an eyebrow, and Kirishima grinned as it seemed maybe to him Bakugo had already seen the other one coming or thought it was happening before. Bakugo muttered though, "That idiot actually…" Kirishima started laughing which made Bakugo grunt and just stop focusing on it again. "Let's go," Bakugo said, and Kirishima nodded with a 'Yeah.' The two of them walked for the door of the dorm to head over to a training ground they had signed up to use after school today.
I really did not think their relationship was like that, Todoroki thought. In his head he imagined part of a conversation he heard them have on the roof earlier that year. Then again, Todoroki watched again, or he thought about the moment when Zach had appeared behind Yaoyorozu. He had not seen anything coming, but Zach was there between Yaoyorozu and the villain who had shot at her at the Sports Festival. He thought about Zach collapsing once they had all defeated Inhuman, after he had created an ice wave that the two of them had slid down together to attack Inhuman while the arena collapsed. Zach's a good person. Todoroki frowned and thought back on the summer before, and how certain he had been that Zach was a villain even when the rest of the class kept trying to defend him.
Todoroki leaned back on his couch a bit and just turned to the tv again. He was not one to gossip and it did not look like he was all that interested in the matter. He was not seeing the screen he looked at though, but Zach standing in front of the courtroom with that look in his eyes as he talked about changing the answer. He pictured the Nightmare form he had seen for the first time in Camino Ward, right after seeing that same look in Zach's eyes he imagined at the courthouse. And he heard Zach's screams on the roof which had made him ready his ice in case of a worst case scenario. Zach, is oddly a good person. Why do I think that? Because, I could see a villain having his past. Is that it?
Or, is it because you are, even after everything, moving on? It is so hard for me to move on from my past. But you have not just moved on, but moved forward. Your report, the times you disappeared… After you saved Kaminari, I believed you were the one to stop Diamondfist. Somehow your trip to Kyoto was a lie. And yet, although it was against the rules I do not feel- if anything, the fact that you did it anyway impressed me. Because you know how bad things can go when you break the rules, but you had the opportunities and took them. Todoroki shook his head once to clear his head, as he usually did not spend this much time thinking on his classmates and especially not on secrets they were keeping. I trust you. Your report shocked me so much, but you've started moving behind the scenes and out in the open. I can't say that you just said those things in your report, because you wouldn't be doing the things you do if you didn't really want those things to happen.
So, it's not you, Todoroki thought, keeping his expression straight as he looked at the screen even as a darker tone filled his mind. Or Midoriya. Iida, Bakugo, Yaoyorozu, Kaminari, Kirishima, Kuroiro, Monoma, Tetsutetsu, Kendo, or Shoji… Unless Inhuman did not- would he have known? Would Shigaraki have started his attack if you were the one on stage… Or because of the crowd chanting "Lifebringer," was his grudge enough? To risk losing such an important player? Todoroki frowned more and then thought about the girl sitting next to Midoriya. Uraraka, and Tsuyu. Would they have helped chase Mr. Compress? And they were fighting Toga in the forest as well. Uraraka is close to Midoriya though, and Midoriya has a connection with All Might. The villains would want her to get close to him, plus he's one of Shigaraki's targets. Then again, we all are. They've been trying to kill us. So if there really is a spy here, why wouldn't they have attacked us already and killed as many- There is a chance there was never a spy. Since Hackerman's capture there has been no sign that a spy is out there. His Quirk's limits were discovered in prison- but even those limits, could have been overcome with Kurogiri's Warp Gates.
Iida glanced towards Todoroki and then straightened himself out on the couch. He coughed into his hand and turned to face the tv as well, as Todoroki seemed to not care about the big news Uraraka just brought over to them. He turned to the news that Todoroki looked to be very intensely focused on, though that made Iida lift an eyebrow as it seemed to him like a fluff piece the news station was using to put some positive, not crime-related news out for once. He wondered why Todoroki appeared to be so deeply interested in the child who got a cat out of a tree using his Squirrel Quirk that let him climb up to save it right away. Apparently the boy had always been scared of cats, but he got over his fear to save the defenseless animal.
Then the news changed, right as footsteps came barreling down the stairs. A breaking news report came on and the group of four watching tv looked closer as they saw 'Musutafu' written on the bottom of the screen. Then they turned to the stairs as one of their classmates came running out and straight towards the front door where he slid his feet into his shoes as fast as he could.
"Hey Zach," Midoriya began, getting out of his seat with a hesitant look on his face. "You aren't thinking-"
"Midnight sensei sent me a text," Zach replied quickly without spinning to the couch. "She said the situation's already under control, but someone died so I'm…" Zach stopped and he turned to the couch area and the four standing there looking towards him. He grimaced and turned to the door, then back to Midoriya and straightened his expression. "Could you give me lift to my bike?"
Midoriya's eyes widened for a second but he nodded fast and ran around the couches over to the door with Zach. The black haired boy threw open the door and ran outside while Midoriya put his shoes on fast. It just happened, Zach thought. But, wasting any time would be stupid. There could be other fatalities. Or maybe more villains haven't attacked yet- "Let's go," Midoriya said behind him. Zach glanced back over his shoulder and nodded, and Midoriya put his hands under Zach's armpits and leapt up in the air.
Zach's head pushed back and his cheeks flapped in the sudden push of wind into his face. He clenched his teeth and tried steadying himself as they shot through the air towards the school, but then his grit teeth ground over each other a few times. I really wanted to use my motorcycle, show it off- but that's not a good reason. "Midoriya!" Zach called out over the wind as they were arcing down towards the halfway point between their dorm and the main school building.
"Yeah?!"
"Just go straight there actually! It'll be faster!"
Midoriya pulled Zach up before his legs were nearing the ground, and he bent his legs while twisting his feet to point the south on the pavement below them. Midoriya unbent his knees and shot up into the air again, lowering Zach back down to the place he had been holding him in front of him and down a bit by his armpits. Zach grit his teeth again from more than the wind as Midoriya yanking him around and manhandling him like this was as embarrassing as it was painful. Don't say anything about it. It doesn't hurt that much. This is about to hurt a lot more. Zach gulped but he took in a deep breath as they soared up over the edge of U.A.'s campus. Hope Midoriya doesn't get in trouble for this. If Midnight sensei called for me then she probably let the security guard know already, but- well, I'll tell her I asked for his help…
The two of them landed on top of a building just outside of the campus, and Midoriya leapt up again in the direction of where there were loud sirens blaring in Musutafu. There was not any smoke or huge destruction that they could see from a distance which was a good sign. They bounded towards it across the city at such speed that Zach could not help but feel amazed at how far of distances Midoriya could travel on foot. I wish I could- "So, are you and Yaoyorozu-"
"Not really the time Midoriya," Zach said while they reached the top of an arc and started coming back down. They were almost at the crime scene, but Zach grinned for a split second during their descent. "But yeah," he added, and Midoriya's eyes widened as he heard Zach's second reply. He had to quickly get back in the zone Zach got him in with the first response though, because they were there.
They landed down on the street back near some police cars and ambulances, but Midnight saw the two of them drop down not too far away and she called out, "Lifebringer. Over there," she pointed down the block towards where the fighting had actually been. For a second she wanted to scold him for not putting on his costume before coming out, same with Midoriya who had come with him in only a minute and a half since she sent that text. She wished they had taken just a minute to do some better preparation, but she found it difficult to scold Zach when she thought about why it was they did not move the body.
Zach started running towards the crime scene where he saw another hero he recognized from U.A. Mother Russia was looking down into a hole in some cracked pavement, but she glanced over her shoulder when she saw Sazaki coming her way. Zach did not like the look on Mother Russia's face, and it made him slow his run for a second. Midoriya had watched Zach start running for a moment, but then he looked to Midnight sensei who was dealing with a group of three unconscious villains and helping the cops get them into an armored truck near them. Midnight called out that there could be others around the area so they had to do a sweep for the any more villains, and Midoriya looked back towards Zach and started jogging after him.
"Lifebringer!"
"Yeah Lifebringer's here!"
"Save him Lifebringer!"
Zach stopped hesitating as much and flashed a smile across his face. He needed to show it at least once before he saw this body that he was getting increasingly nervous about. Zach reached Mother Russia and looked down into the hole in the ground in front of her. The man down there was cut up and his torso barely looked to be holding together. It was nearly crushed in half by some pavement splashed with blood that had been moved off to the side. His head's intact. Shouldn't be… too bad… Zach started panting but clenched his shaking right hand and then ran forward and into the hole. Mother Russia was opening her mouth to say something to him, but she stopped and nodded her head once with an intense look on her face.
Mother Russia then turned to her right and scolded the boy who ran up next to her, "Where is your costume?"
"I- we were in a rush," Midoriya started giving his excuse. Then he looked down into the hole and where Zach was standing next to the deceased civilian who looked brutally mangled.
Zach was hesitating even as people on the sides of the road and in their buildings on higher floors cheered down towards him. He gulped, and then he turned back and his eyes darted around while he was standing there next to the man. Midoriya's eyes opened huge, and then his fists clenched and he said, "We'll keep a look out for the League of Villains." Zach turned back to his friend and his eyes opened wide. Mother Russia closed her mouth that she opened to say the same thing, then she just flew up over the hole in the ground and landed on the other side of Zach as Midoriya. "You can focus on him," Midoriya assured.
Letting my guard down in a place like this. You both know, that bringing someone back this damaged is going to take a while. It's, going to take all of my focus, and a few minutes of straight pain! But, but you know, you believe that the real reason I'm hesitating is because I'm scared the League is going to attack me. Zach snapped his right hand open and his fingers slipped through his glove. Because that is why I'm nervous. With Midoriya guarding me Kurogiri wouldn't risk it. This man was killed in a villain attack. He didn't deserve to die. And I won't let him! "Thanks," Zach said, lifting the right corner of his lip while dropping down on the dead man below. He really tried to keep his smile, but a few seconds in to what would be a three minute revival, and Zach had to open his mouth and scream.
A/N Thanks for reading! Saw a lot of excitement in the reviews that the ship y'all been routing for has finally sailed. Momozaki lifted off. And Kamijirou too. Uraraka got a little nervous here in the middle of the chapter that something mysterious was happening... XD Anyway, hope you guys enjoyed this fun one with some serious stuff thrown in. All For One stealing Muscular's power, Todoroki thinking about the possibility of a spy, and Zach taking on another tough revival with almost no hesitation. Leave a review below telling me what you think, comments, questions, or predictions!
IntricateHummingbird chapter 81 . Sep 22
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD YES IT HAPPENED
Haha, that was a great first review to see on that chapter. XD Glad you guys are excited!
Changeling501 chapter 81 . Sep 22
I've been reading this for a while and I'm always surprised at how fast you upload, seriously how do you do it?, but yeah this is amazing definitely one of the better ones out there. Nice job
Thanks! I just sit down for a couple hours at a time and write out scenes, many of which I already have some idea of what I'm going to write in them. Glad you've really been enjoying it, and I'll try to keep up the quick uploads!
StandupSitdown chapter 79 . Sep 22
Some deep thoughts from Deku at the end there about Zach playing the long game. I enjoy chapters like this without action almost more than one with it because it gives characters more time for introspection and helps advance the plot.
I am very glad to see Zach continue to realize there are plenty of crazy quirks out there so Nightmare isn't so horrible. I smiled when I read the line from All Might about him using it then immediately switching over to bringing people back. Public opinion will hopefully keep turning for him.
A cute scene between Momo and Zach and we even got to see her be teased a little bit after the call ended.
My only question is, when exactly did Zach learn Roady had proposed? Because he mentioned it to Momo, but then he seemed very surprised when Bouncer Man told him about it. Was it just that he didn't know it had been so soon after he left Roadys room?
Between life and work I always seem to be a chapter or two behind on this, but at least that means I always have another chapter to look forward to!
I'm glad you like the in-action chapters as much as the action-packed ones. Always gotta be some once in a while. Zach coming to terms with Nightmare, even using it in public right after getting back to Musutafu and only receiving cheers from the public. Public opinion definitely high for him with those cheers at the end of this one too. Anyway, know this was a couple of chapters back but I checked what you were talking about and yup! Totally an error on my part, went back and took that out of his convo with Momo. Thanks for the catch, and thanks for the review!
Logargon chapter 80 . Sep 24
"with what must have been truths for Tsukauchi to act this wau" OH HOW THE MIGHTY WRITER HAS FALLEN TO NOT SEE SUCH A MISTAKE, OH HOW WILL YOU EVER LIVE THIS DOW (gets karate chopped on back of neck)
No idea what you're talking about. Unlike the reviewer above, when I went back to find your mistake I just did not find anything. I totally did not go back and edit the chapter and am just denying it here because you'll never have proof that I didn't do that. ;)
AgasaR chapter 1 . Sep 23
You wrote 130k in 3 days!?
I'd believe it... but I don't really know where you're looking. More like wrote 850k in 90 days. Though actually if you're reviewing with that then I probably wrote it somewhere back a ways... Oh the time of getting so much done. Hope you guys like this 12k one for the last two days though! Thanks for the review!
