Chapter 27 incoming. Also I have a new story out, even though I already have two others I'm currently working on not including this one(And other projects outside of all of this, I really need to stop adding anything more). It's called 'Tales of Heroes' it's a massive crossover between My Hero Academia and a whole bunch of other anime. Only one chapter is out right now so feel free to check it out if you like this one, especially those who wanted Ruby x Izuku since that's the planned ship for that fic(Eventually). No review reply so let's get on with the chapter.
USJ Arc
Chapter 27: Battle at the USJ Part 2
Momo, Kyoka, Denki, and Ren were surrounded by a hoard of villains in the mountain zone. Ren was doing the best out of all of them with thanks to his combat experience and skill. He effortlessly dealt with any opponent he came across, using his quirk to confuse them as he popped in and out of their perception. Momo and Kyoka were holding up fairly thanks to a bo staff and short sword Momo made from them respectively. Denki was doing his best to not get hit. He stumbled out of the way an attack.
"Ahh… close one." He muttered.
Ren knocked out the villain who had attacked Denki.
"Can't you use your electricity to take these guys out?" Ren questioned.
"You didn't get to see it during our fight, but I can only really cover myself with electricity or discharge it in all directions. I don't have any real control of it beyond that." Denki answered.
On hearing this Momo discussed something with Ren when he was close by.
"I can't even use my special transceiver to call for help, it's being jammed by something. So I got nothing." Denki explained further.
"Here's an idea then." Kyoka began.
She kicked him into a villain.
"Be a human stun gun." Kyoka stated.
"Son of a bitch!" He shouted.
He hit a villain and immediately began to electrocute him.
"Oh hey it worked." He noted.
Did he really not think of that? Ren thought to himself. Another villain charged at him ready to smash him with a boulder attached to his hand. However Ren had already intercepted him and knocked him out. More villain readied to charge them. However Kyoka plugged her ear jacks into her boots and sent a sound wave out to stun them. As Kyoka unplugged them and they returned to their normal position, a villain came up to attack her. However Momo intercepted him with a jab from her bo staff.
"Thanks," Kyoka expressed.
"No problem. Ren to me I have it ready." Momo ordered.
"On it!" Ren replied as he hopped next to her.
"Have what ready?" Kyoka questioned.
"You'll see, it took some time due to its size. But it'll be what we need to win." Momo stated.
She bent down as something bulged out of her back. Ripping her outfit apart, a large sheet sprung forth from her back. It gently came back down covering them.
"What, you think some sheets gonna protect ya?!" A villain shouted.
"From most attacks no. But this is a 100mm thick insulation sheet. Perfect for protecting oneself from any electrically attack. Your up Kaminari." Momo stated.
"Ahhh… hell ya." Denki muttered. "Take this, Indiscriminate Discharge! 1.3 million volts!"
He let loose a large amount of electricity shocking everyone around them. The attack instantly took out all of the villains around them.
"Good looks like their all down. We should hurry I'm worried about the others." Momo expressed.
"Hey uh… you're leotard… kind of…" Kyoka noted with a blush.
As a result of making the insulation sheet, Mono's outfit was destroyed leaving her indecent.
"Don't worry, I can make my own clothing." Momo assured her.
"That's good. Wait…" She began.
She looked to see Ren, back turned, and eyes looking anywhere where Momo wasn't. Good at least he's a gentleman.
"I-I'll head out and let you change." Ren stated.
He went out from under the sheet making sure his eyes never got a peak of her exposed chest. Momo's face was bright red from realizing that Ren had been under the sheet with them. The thought never crossed her mind until now I guess? Kyoka thought to herself. Outside Denki's attack had fried his brain causing him to walk around aimlessly holding his thumbs up.
"Weeehh…" He expressed.
Guess an attack like that has some drawbacks. Ren mentally noted. As a now decently dressed Momo and Kyoka exited from the sheet, a hand popped up out of the ground. Ren was the only one to notice this and quickly drew in his breath, hiding himself. Out of the ground emerged a villain, unharmed from Denki's attack. He grabbed hold of said boy.
"No one move. Hands in the air and no quirk use!" The villain shouted. "Try anything and he dies."
Momo and Kyoka immediately complied putting their hands in the air.
"Not good!" Momo exclaimed worriedly.
"Darn, in his stupefied state he's a sitting duck." Kyoka noted.
"I'd rather not kill a fellow electric quirk user. But if I have to I…" He began.
He never got to finish as he the pain of being hit but didn't feel anything hit him. He dropped Denki as he looked around in confusion.
"What the?" he questioned.
Soon the pain of being hit occurred all over his body. Like before he didn't feel anything it him. With one final hit he was knocked out. Ren breathed out becoming visible again. However despite the villain being down the alarms didn't trigger.
"Hey what gives. I thought that guy was the one jamming everything." Kyoka noted.
"They must have completely fired the system somehow." Ren noted. "Though with him down we should be able to call the school now. Once Kaminari is back to normal that is. Unless you two have a way."
"Phones back at school." Kyoka stated.
"Mine is as well. And I don't know the exact makeup of one to make it with my quirk." Momo added.
"Then we should had back to the entrance. Hopefully they've managed to get a messenger outside by now." Ren stated.
Meanwhile, near the entrance…
Ruby's stood with Thirteen and her other classmates across from Kurogiri. The man stood between them and the exit.
"What's the plan Ruby physical attacks don't seem work on this guy." Hanta noted.
"We don't need to beat him. Our win condition is getting a messenger out. We just need to keep him from warping whoever we send." Ruby explained. "Speaking of which Tenya you have to be the runner."
"What? But… I can't just abandon everyone. And aren't you faster than me, wouldn't you be the best to go." Tenya noted.
"My speed's good in bursts but not for long distance travel. You're much more suited for that without sacrificing a lot of speed. Your the best bet we've got." Ruby explained. "We'll provide all the support you need to get past him.
"Yeah, she's right." Mezo affirmed.
"We'll do whatever we can to help you." Hanta added.
"You've got this Iida." Ochako expressed.
"Go and save us all." Thirteen stated.
"Talk all you want, it matters little. Only fools discuss their strategy in earshot of their opponent. You have no hope of getting past me." Kurogiri declared.
"Like it matters if you heard us you can't stop us." Thirteen declared as he readied to use his quirk.
"Thirteen wait! Don't use your quirk on him! He'll just open up a portal behind you and use your own quirk against you!" Ruby shouted.
"Huh?" Thirteen expressed as he stopped his quirk use. "Oh… uh… your right… I never thought of that."
That girl's smarter than I thought. Kurogiri mentally noted.
"Nice save, but that doesn't help in us getting past this guy." Mina noted.
"I know I'm working on it." Ruby replied.
I need to trust that Jaune's found out where this guy's main body is. He said 'close one' when Katsuki and Eijiro went in for an attack. Which means there's something there we can hit. Come on Jaune I know you've found it.
"Nora nail him!" Ruby shouted.
"Huh?" Kurogiri expressed.
"ORA!" Nora shouted as she slammed her fist in the metal plates he wore.
"GAHH!" He shouted as he flew high up into the air.
"Tenya go! Now!" Ruby shouted.
Quickly revving up his engines, Tenya shot forward straight for the opened door. No I can't let him leave. Kurogiri thought. He suddenly felt gravity's pull leave him. He looked to see Ochako land next to Nora with Ruby with holding her. As he did a line of tape shot up and stuck to him.
"Nice shot." Ruby compliment.
"Thanks," Hanta replied as he ripped loose the tape.
"Now send him flying!" Ruby ordered.
Mezo grabbed hold of it with six arms and spun him around before having Mina use her acid to snap the tape, sending Kurogiri flying away from door. With all of this Iida was able to easily escape and rush full speed towards the school. Hang on everyone I'll bring help as fast as I can.
"Darn with his escape, it's game over." Kurogiri noted before he warped back to the plaza.
At the central Plaza…
Izuku, Tsuyu, and Minoru could only watch on in pale face horror as two of the teachers struggled to survive against the Nomu. Aizawa had been knocked to the ground unconscious and Glynda had been thrown into the fountain again with her other arm now broken. The Nomu loomed over her.
"Midoriya I think we should go before they find us." Minoru muttered.
"Ribbit…" Tsuyu muttered as a form of affirmation.
Izuku didn't respond but instead only looked on with nervous beads of sweat pouring down his face. It's a little late for that. I don't think we can sneak away fast enough for them to not notice. And we can't just hop into battle, that things likely what their way of beating All Might. We'd be crushed. So what do we do? Suddenly a black portal opened behind Tomura.
"Tomura Shigaraki," Kurogiri spoke.
"What is it Kurogiri? Is Thirteen dead?" Tomura questioned.
"Far from it unfortunately. To make matters worse, one of the students managed to escape." Kurogiri explained.
"What… Kurogiri…" Tomura muttered as he began to scratch at his neck. "I swear if you weren't our way out of here I'd turn you to dust."
He let out an annoyed sigh.
"It's game over now. With a dozen or so pro heroes on their way we won't stand a chance. We're leaving." He ordered.
"Did… did they just say their leaving?" Minoru questioned.
"I… I think so." Tsuyu answered.
"Then were saved!" Minoru shouted quietly.
"Yeah but…" Tsuyu began only to feel Minoru grope her.
She proceeded to drown him.
"I don't like this Midoriya." She expressed.
"Yeah, going through all the trouble of planning out this attack only to leave on a whim. It doesn't make sense." Izuku stated.
This guy honestly seems like an overgrown child. Wait… Maybe there's something I can use from that fact. If my guess is right, this could give us something to work with.
"Before that though," He stated as his gaze shifted to the trio in the water. "Let's leave some dead kids."
In an instant He was on the trio, hand reaching out towards them.
"And shatter the pride of the Symbol of Peace." He declared.
his had slowly crept towards Tsuyu, the impending doom it's touch cares in everyone's mind. He face paled, and while her expression didn't change, the fear of death had gripped her heart. Izuku stepped forward and readied a punch. Here goes nothing.
"No you don't. SMAAAASH!" Izuku shouted as he sent his fist straight at the villain.
"Nomu." Was all Tomura stated.
His fist collided releasing a powerful gust of wind, kicking up dust. He grunted in pain, having used 25% max power to attack the villain. However when the dust settled, A hulk black monster as seen instead of the thin Tomura. It had taken Izuku's punch without even flinching. Blood poured out from his badly bruised, but not broken, arm. Looks like my plan worked. Now just have to sell it.
"Nice try kid, quite the move. I see your an All Might fan shouting out smash like that. Not that it did anything." Tomura nonchalantly stated.
The Nomu gripped onto Izuku's arm. It tighten its grip earning a loud snap.
"GAAHHH!" Izuku shouted in pain. "How… how did my attack not phase him? That was at least equal to a quarter of All Might's power I'm sure of it."
"Hahaha… only a quarter. Our Nomu here has a shock absorption quirk made to take All Might at full power." Tomura proudly declared.
"Shock absorption quirk… so that's how you plan on beating All Might." Izuku noted through the pain.
"Oh your good kid, but shock absorption isn't the only thing this thing is packing. Hyper-regeneration and strength to match All Might." Tomura boldly declared.
Good he fell for it. Now I hope All Might shows up in time for us to be alive to tell him.
"Now then where were we." Tomura stated.
He reached for Tsuyu yet again, only for a kick to send him back. Ruby had burst down to them after hearing Izuku's shouts of pain.
"Hang on Izuku, I'm coming!" Ruby shouted.
She charged to try and attack the Nomu.
"GRrrrrr… Nomu, get those two out of the way." Tomura ordered.
With a screech the Nomu swung Izuku and around and launch him into Ruby, sending them both flying.
"NOW… where were…" Tomura began.
He never got to finish as the entrance to the USJ was blown open. All eyes went to the entrance. A deep relief washed over all the students and teachers, the feeling of which was clearly evident on their face.
"FEAR NOT!" All Might shouted as he stepped into the facility. "I am here!"
He tore his tie from his shirt. Gone was the normal smile on All Might's face. Replacing it was a face of pure rage.
"Well it looks like we're getting a continue. I've been waiting for you All Might. Time to die you worthless piece of trash." Tomura declared.
"All Might sir…" Thirteen muttered.
"Sorry I'm late, though it seems my instincts were right on this one, glad I cut my talk with the principal short." All Might stated. "Young Iida told me the gist of what was going on when I meet him on the way. Leave the rest to me."
His eyes narrowed in on Aizawa. Some of the villains stood before him. In an instant All Might had already made his way to his colleague while knocking out all the villains along the way. Aizawa struggled to look up at him.
"Took you long enough show off." Aizawa muttered through the pain.
"Sorry it took so long. I should have been here from the start. Thank you, for defending the students." All Might expressed.
"Just doing my job." Aizawa replied.
With a nod All Might picked him up before rushing to Glynda.
"I believe I owe you an apology as well." All Might stated.
"You can apologies by cleaning up this mess." Glynda replied with a grunt of pain.
"Right, now one last thing to do." All Might stated as he picked up Glynda.
His eyes went to his students. In an instant he had picked them up and brought them to where Izuku and Ruby had landed. In that same instant he had knocked off the hand that was covering Tomura's face.
"Everyone take Aizawa and Glynda and get out of here." All Might ordered.
"What, but I can fight too." Ruby protested.
"No but's young lady, now go!" All Might ordered.
Tomura looked down at the hand trembling.
"Father…" He muttered as he went over and picked it up.
He placed it back on his face, calming himself down.
"Your fast… too fast for most to keep up with. But you've slowed down haven't you. It might just be true, that your getting weaker." He declared.
All Might didn't any movements that would give the villain reason to believe his words were true. He stood tall ready to face them down.
"All Might be careful. That villain with it's brain exposed, it's made specifically to counter you." Izuku expressed.
"Hmm… What do you mean young Midoriya?" All Might questioned.
"They said it was bio-engineered. It has shock absorption, hyper-regeneration, and strength to match yours." Izuku explained.
"So it has multiple quirks then." All Might noted.
"Probably, but I don't know how?" Izuku replied.
I have an idea. I pray that I'm wrong though. For now I'll focus on the enemy in front of me.
"Regardless, be on your guard they probably plan to use big black and ugly to distract you while they go in for the kill." Ruby added.
"Carefuls how ya word dat girly. Some idiot mights get da wrong ideas." Splinter stated, popping out of Ruby's hood.
"GAH! Splinter when did you get here?" Ruby questioned.
"I's been here da who times. The author just forgots to write me in til now." Splinter answered.
"Anyways, thank you you two, that gives me a better idea of how to deal with this situation. Now get going you two." All Might directed.
"Yeah but one more thing, be careful of the hands villain there. He turns anything he touches to dust." Izuku expressed.
"The misty villain is also able to make portals to warp things. I'd say he's one to more wary of." Ruby added.
"Good to know now watch a learn. Your about to see a pro in action." All Might stated.
"GRrrrrr… enough of this farce. Nomu! Go!" Tomura ordered.
With a loud shriek the Nomu charged at All Might. All Might returned it's charge with a charge of his own. Both sides wound up a fist and sent it barrelling towards the other. They collided, sending out a large shockwave. The battle between All Might and the Nomu had began.
Izuku: Oh thank god All Might's here now.
Ruby: But it looks like that Nomu thing is gonna give him some trouble.
Izuku: Yeah no kidding, good thing help's gonna show up next chapter.
Ruby: Speaking of next chapter... there's nothing for us to say?
Izuku: What?
Ruby: Yeah check the script there's nothing here but it's name. *Shows Izuku the script*
Izuku: Huh... I guess we have nothing to say. Next time Chapter 28: Battle at the USJ Part 3.
Ruby: See you guys then.
