UA's Saiyan Heroes
The desert sky was clear as two bald eagles soared through it, as the city of Las Vegas began to come into view. The streets were bustling with activity and motion of its citizens, going from place to place, into Casinos and other establishments. But the peace was soon disturbed when an explosion erupted from the King's Casino, in which two forms rushed out of the smoke, one of them being a large eight limbed beast of a man, six arms and two legs with turquoise blue skin, and a leather mask on his face, and spiked straps on his chest, keeping his pants up as he ran on all eight limbs.
The second was a twig of a man wearing a red mask with a white A, on the forehead, running down over his eyes. His suit was red, and high collared, with a white circle on the abdomen, with white sprouting from the circle to the shoulders and legs, going down his arms and thighs before wrapping around his forearms and calves. He rode on his partner's back laughing like a maniac.
"It's a villain. Get off the streets." Someone shouted.
"Ten million dollars just like that. I love this job." The twig of a man exclaimed.
"Up ahead." His partner called out in a gruff voice.
"Huh?" The brains of the operation looked forward, to see several police cruisers forming a barricade, before the officers all got out of their cars, and aimed their guns at the villains, with a couple Pro Heroes coming to the scene.
"Your crime spree ends here." The hero with electrical powers shouted. "Stand Down."
Sending off an electrical blast, the attack hit the multi-limbed villain, pushing him back a bit, before he broke through and kept pressing forward.
"You're up Cow Lady." He said to the woman with bull horn on her head, taking a running start.
She began running towards the villains as they broke through the attack, leaping through the air, making an attempt at escaping.
"Y'all are finished." Cow Lady said, turning into a raging bull, running towards them.
"Go ahead and try to stop us." The villain in red declared, his arms turning into missile launchers, firing a couple of missiles at the heroes.
The attacks had knocked the heroes back, and disoriented the police quite a bit, allowing the villains to make their escape after the getaway runner landed on the side of a building, then jumped down, over the heroes and police, running towards the busier streets.
Leaping through the air again, the villain was about to land on top of a car with a family of four inside. The children and parents were scarred for their lives.
"Don't stop. Just crush them." The villain with the weaponry Quirk stated.
Out of nowhere, came a hulking musclebound man, with golden lightning sparking around his feet, leaping towards the villains and slammed his fist into the monstrous villain's torso, sending the duo flying back, the fire that erupted from their rampage through the squad cars, saving the family of four from being crushed and killed.
The family in the car looked up from their positions of fear, and saw, instead of the oncoming form of their doom, the man who saved them, his U.A Leathermans billowing in the air of the flames erupting from the villain's impact.
"Fear not citizens, everything is fine." The voice of the young hero said, before turning to look at them, with a bright smile on his face. "You're safe, because I am here."
The two kids in the backseat of the car smiled brightly, seeing his fearless smile, which told them everything would be all right.
"Really? An' just who the hell do you think you are?" The villain with the weaponry Quirk exclaimed pulling some burning money off his forehead.
"A hero from Japan, who just so happened to be passing by." Toshinori stated, his hands on his hips as he turned to them.
"Ha, I'll send you back home in a coffin." The villain said, before turning his arms into rocket launchers, firing two missiles at him. "If they can find your remains."
Toshinori crossed his arms, and with One-for-All empowering them, he swung his arms in an X chop formation, with the wind pressure causing the missiles to lose trajectory, and slam into one another, before exploding in the air above him and the civilians.
"I'm sorry, what was that threat… again?" Toshinori asked, looking up, only to see the villains gone before he turned to his left and spotted them jumping through the city. "Running away already?"
From out behind the crowd came a car that looked like it belonged on the Indy500 raceway, jumped through the air and over traffic, with a young man driving it, his almond brown hair blowing through the wind that sped past him.
"You got ahead of yourself Toshi." He called out before the car landed and skid to a halt, allowing for Toshinori to hop in.
"They're fast, follow them Dave." Toshinori stated.
"You're impossible, your body always moves before you think." Dave chuckled switching on a booster mode for the car, and sped away, chasing after the villains, as a drone was following the duo of law breakers. Following the drone's directions, the duo of crime fighters, took a short cut, and went racing towards the villains.
"Hey, some weird car is following us." The goliath of the villains stated.
"Damn these heroes." The skinny villain said, firing another two rockets at them.
David just fired a rocket of his own to intercept, which broke apart, creating tones of strange bubbles that somehow managed to contain the blasts of the missiles launched at them, once the explosives had been consumed by them.
"You're kidding me." The villain said shouting in anger, and slamming his fist down.
As the villains continued to make their getaway, Toshinori jumped onto the hood of the car, kneeling on one leg, while preparing to jump.
"Toshi, we're gonna be late for the lecture, hurry up and finish this." David said.
"That's the plan, obviously." Toshinori said, leaping from the car, causing it to skid back a bit.
Leaping through the air like a rocket, Toshinori caught up to the villains in no time, driving them up the wall, literally and figuratively.
"You just don't give up, do you?" The missile villain asked, launching more explosives at him. This time it was nearing double digits.
"Detroit Smash." Toshinori called out, punching the air, causing all of the explosives to collide with one another and go off, before he planted his feet on the side of a building and pushed off, gliding through the smokescreen, with a confident smile until he passed another building, and noticed three missiles coming his way, and they were too close for him to properly fend off with an attack. The best he could do was swing with a One-for-All empowered arm, and get caught in the blazing explosion, not taking too much damage since they didn't hit him directly.
From out of the blaze, came Toshinori, in his All Might costume that had been made for him especially by David.
'Now for an ultimate move.' He thought as the villains came charging at him. 'Dave, I named this one after your home state.'
"Do it." Dave smiled with a thumbs up.
"California: SMASH." All Might shouted, spinning forward with his legs tucked in, before he unfurled himself, and threw a punch at the villain's brawn. Sending both of them rocketing to the ground below, creating an uproar of wind and money blowing through the streets.
"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha." All Might laughed triumphantly standing atop a building, gaining the people's attention.
"Who's that hero?" Someone from down below questioned.
"I've never seen him." A woman said, sounding like she was swooned.
"That was incredible." Another bystander said.
"He's an exchange student, visiting the States from Japan." David said, pulling up next to the scene of the villain's defeat. "You can call him by his hero name, All Might."
"His name's All Might?" The two heroes from earlier, and a citizen, questioned, looking up at where All Might stood.
"Take him in. Someday that name will be known by everyone in the world." David smiled. "Someday, he will become our Symbol of Peace."
Later on, as David was driving down the freeway, All Might began chatting it up with him.
"Thanks for the help Dave." Toshinori said. "Because of the suit you made, that was a synch, and we'll make it back to class on time."
"Well we'd better. If we're late again, I doubt we'd be able to pass the course." David said kinda worriedly.
"*Alert, flight U.A-857 has been hijacked! I repeat, flight U.A-857 has been hijacked!*" a voice said over the police scanner in the car.
"Did you hear that?" All Might questioned.
"It's too risky man." Dave said.
All Might just looked at Dave with an intent in his eyes that said he was not going to give up, and that he would take the risk, with or without Dave's help. Finally Dave crumbled and submitted to agreeing to the job.
"You know for a good guy, you are way too reckless." Dave said, flipping a few switches, and sending the car into flight mode.
"That mean you'll help me?" All Might asked.
"Guess so." Dave smiled as the drone came back and attached to the car, finishing flight mode. "Ah, who knew that being a hero would be so much work?" Dave asked jokingly.
"Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha. Don't worry I'll buy you lunch." All Might laughed.
~Reality~
"All Might, All Might, hey All Might wake up." Izumi's voice echoed in his ears, waking Toshinori from his memory/dream.
"Something the matter Young Midoriya?" Toshinori questioned rubbing his eyes after his snot bubble popped.
"Look, we can see it." Izumi said, looking out the window, as they spotted I-Island. "Right there. The floating city that can move anywhere, home to over ten thousand scientists from around the world. I-Island. I can't believe this is where I get to start my summer vacation it's so amazing." She smiled, holding up an Expo guide book.
"I didn't realize that you'd be this excited Young Midoriya. I'm glad I brought you along." Toshinori chuckled looking out the window with her.
"Yeah you sure it was alright to bring me along?" Izumi questioned.
"Of course, and don't worry. My family will be there, but since I have to be in my All Might form, they had to take a separate plane so no one would connect any links to us."
"I guess that makes sense." Izumi yawned. "I should have gotten more sleep last night."
"We did get on an overnight flight." Toshinori chuckled. "But then again, these seats aren't the most comfortable to sleep in. It's doable, but hard."
Bing-"Attention passengers, the plane will soon begin its decent to I-Island." The pilot said.
"Once we've landed and gone out in public, we'll need to be quick." Toshinori said, growing into his All Might form, and removing his jacket, to reveal his Golden Age suit. "Now then, I believe it's time you changed into your hero costume to Young Midoriya. You did ask U.A if you could bring it, didn't you?"
"Right." Izumi smiled.
~Other Plane~
"I can't believe we're going to I-Island. It's too bad your dad couldn't come though Kaen." Mina said, Eri sleeping in the seat next to hers. "This might have been a good place for the two of you to make up."
"Yeah well, it's only going to be for a couple days. Then it's a day of rest before our flight to Disney World." Kaen said.
"I wanted to bring Mei along, but she couldn't come. Thankfully she was able to take the twins so I could come along." Athena stated.
"Alright everyone, we're going to be making our final descent soon. Kaen, Mina, you two should get changed into your hero costumes before we land." Gine said.
"I'll grab Eri and get her changed to." Mina said, picking up, and waking up, the sleeping child.
"Mama, are we there yet?" Eri asked.
"Almost, right now we're making our final descent, so you and I are gonna get changed into our costumes." Mina smiled.
"Okay." Eri said.
After they all changed into their costumes, the planes carrying both parties began to make its descent down to I-Island's landing platform. After they were given the green lights to get up, the passengers of both air crafts, moved out of the plane and went through the I-Island Airport/Entrance.
"Izumi, you're here with All Might?" Mina asked, spotting the green haired girl as they went through customs.
"Yeah. He had a plus one, and wanted to bring a student. So he put all our names in a box and drew a lot at random, and my name was the one he picked." Izumi said.
"Lucky. But I'm also lucky, because I get to come to I-Island with Kaen and his family. His dad had to stay behind though." Mina said.
"Oh, that's a shame. Is that Eri?" Izumi asked, spotting the little girl standing next to Mina.
Eri was dressed in her own hero costume. Eri actually looked nice in her costume, with her bangs being less flat, gaining a bit of a spikier and choppier style, and hiding her right eye. Eri was dressed in a black, white lined lace-up corset, over a sleeveless and open back tank top, as well as a black choker around her neck with a gold framed amethyst pendent. She wore a pair of black tights under a pair of shorts, with the left pant sleeve completely gone from the upper thigh, with a white belt around the waist, and a pouch on her right hip.
On her arms, she had silver bracers with small black buckled straps around the wrists connected to black fingerless gloves. Her normal sneakers had been replaced with black ankle high steel-toed combat heels, with silver soles and heels. On her back, was a round bottomed triangular piece of metal, that was smaller in size for Eri, but very familiar to the metal Kaen had.
"Yeah, Ruby designed and made it for Eri for fun though, not for any vigilantic or hero work." Mina said. "There's actually a costume contest at Disney World."
"We'll be able to just make it in time for the contest after this trip." Kaen said.
"*We will now begin the immigration process.*" An announcer exclaimed over the loud speaker as the doors opened up for the two groups as they were brought in through the moving sidewalk.
"Let's test your trivia Young Midoriya." All Might said. "Why was this artificial island created?"
"I know this. It was built so the world's brightest minds could gather together, to research Quirks and develop new support items." Izumi said. "They made the island movable to protect their scientists and top secret research from villains. It's got a security system on par with the one at Tartarus Prison. So basically no one has ever committed a crime here."
"Way too many details, but I guess I should have expected that." All Might said, as they were allowed entry, and Mina's view of the screen above, was blocked when All Might's I.D was brought up.
"*The immigration inspection is now complete. The island is currently holding the pre opening of I-Expo. An event that showcases research and development projects our teams have been working on. Only those with invitations may attend the preview.*"
"I can't believe so many people are here before the expo is officially open to the public." All Might said.
"No way, the pictures of this place don't do it any justice." Izumi said excitedly.
"Unlike back in Japan, people are allowed to use their Quirks however they wish on this island." All Might explained. "The pavilions are jam packed with attractions and demonstrations. Make some time for them later."
"We certainly will." Mina said as she was keeping Eri from running off to the attractions.
"Now let's see, the hotel should be nearby." All Might said, looking at his card.
"Welcome to I-Expo." A hostess said walking up to them before she recognized the main attendant of their group. "Huh, is that you All Might?"
"Is he really here?" Another hostess asked.
"Wow the #1 Hero." A third said.
"We need an interview." A reporter said as she and her crew rushed to them.
"Let's get closer." The camera man said.
"Oh crap." Kaen said, grabbing Mina and Eri, and taking to the sky.
"Kaen, I can fly on my on you know." Mina said, floating out of his arms.
"Sorry, reflex." Kaen said.
"Thank you so much for the warm welcome." All Might laughed. "Form a line for autographs please."
Later after a few hours, All Might and the others were standing around an emptied field with Izumi breathing heavily from how exhausting she was, with having to fight her way out of there.
"Oh wow I didn't think we'd get stopped for so long. I'm afraid at this point we're in terrible danger of being late." All Might said his face covered in lipstick kisses.
"I think you have more pressing matters to concern yourself with." Gine said, huffing a bit that he wasn't taking care of the lipstick kisses on his face.
"I know, I know, I'm wiping them off now." All Might said, using his sleeve to wipe off the lipstick.
"You mentioned being late to something, late to what exactly?" Izumi asked.
"I'm interested to know to." Mina said.
"Ah, I wanted to drop in on an old friend of mine, I haven't seen him in quite a while. Sorry to spring it on you all, but would you mind coming along?" All Might asked turning to look at them.
"You mean I get to meet one of your friends? Of course I'd love to go."
"Obviously we're going." Mina smiled.
"By the way I haven't told him about One-for-All, or how I've passed the Quirk onto you. So keep everything under wraps okay?" All Might asked, pulling Izumi to the side.
"Whoa, not even your close friend knows?" Izumi questioned.
"For his own protection, more then anything. Danger tends to follow anyone who knows the truth about my power." All Might said.
Kaen's ears perked up as he picked up the sound of some heavy springs, and he turned his head looking behind All Might, before turning around fully, spotting someone coming to them on a pogo stick with the pogo spring on the back and the body of the device looking like a bike's. His smile brightened when she saw who it was coming down the steps on the pogo stick.
"There you are Uncle… finally… welcome Uncle Might." Melissa cheered jumping from her pogo stick and landing in All Might's arms.
"It's so good to see you Melissa." All Might laughed happily.
"Oh my gosh, it's been forever. I can't believe you're actually here." Melissa said.
"I'm truly grateful for the invitation. I almost didn't recognize you. When did you go and get so grown up?" All Might questioned.
"Well I am seventeen now. Much heavier then the last time you saw me." Melissa smiled.
"Are you? No." All Might said with a laugh.
"Melissa, are you gonna leave us hanging?" Kaen questioned.
"Kaen, Athena." Melissa smiled, running up and hugging he both of them.
"It's so good to see you girl. It's been forever." Athena smiled.
"By the way. I brought my girlfriend with me, but she doesn't have a clue that All Might and dad are one in the same. She believes they're two separate people, so keep playing along?" Kaen whispered to Melissa.
"Of course. Not a problem." Melissa smiled, before separating from the hug.
"Melissa I'd like for you to meet my girlfriend, Mina Ashido." Kaen said, introducing them.
"Hi, it's so nice to meet you. Kaen has said so much about you Melissa." Mina smiled, bowing to her.
"It's nice to meet you to." Melissa smiled, before noticing Eri by Mina's side. "Who's this little cutie?"
"You mean Kaen hasn't told you?" Mina asked, looking to Kaen with a questioning look.
"Told me what?" The blonde girl inquired.
"I haven't really had the chance to tell them yet." Kaen said, before picking Eri up. "Melissa, I'd like you to meet my daughter Eri."
"Your daughter?" Melissa questioned in shock.
"It's a long story, we'll explain it over lunch." Mina said.
"I'd appreciate that." Melissa said, before she noticed something. "Kaen, what happened to your tail?" She asked, circling him, and finding his tail was gone.
"Not as long a story." Kaen sighed. "I lost it in a fight against the Hero Killer, and his apprentice. It hasn't grown back yet, so I'm pretty sure it won't be returning this time."
"Oh, but you looked so good with your tail. It made you the modern day Sun Wukong." Melissa said.
"We can talk more about that later." Gine said.
"Aunty." Melissa smiled, before looking around. "Hold on, I thought you were bringing a plus one with you?"
"Fasha was getting off the plane with us. Where'd she go?" Gine questioned looking around.
"I'm right here." Fasha smiled, surprising Gine by stepping up behind her.
"Fasha, don't startle me like that." Gine said. "You know how much I hate it."
"Sorry, but you're too easy, it would be a crime not to scare you." Fasha laughed. "I had a bit of trouble finding my way around the airport, but I managed after finding a map."
"The I-Island Airport can be rather difficult to navigate." Melissa said. "It's nice to meet you, my name's Melissa Shield."
"A pleasure." Fasha smiled, shaking hands with her.
"Melissa this is Fasha, Kaen and Athena's biological aunt, just like me. Her sister was married to my brother, so she's family." Gine explained.
"It was a shock when I first met her, but she's actually kinda cool." Athena smiled.
"Admittedly, the first time I met her in person, was on the plane ride here." Kaen said. "Dad and I aren't really on speaking terms at the moment."
"So Melissa, where's Dave hiding at?" All Might questioned, getting back in the conversation.
"He's in his lab. He had a breakthrough on a bunch of research he's been working on for years. Actually, he has no idea any of you are here. This is just a little surprise to celebrate his work." Melissa explained.
"So that's what this is about." All Might said. "Give me the scoop then, what is he cooking up this time?"
"He said it's confidential, he won't even tell me what he's been doing." Melissa stated.
"Scientists and their secrets." All Might sighed.
"But recently he has been working on something completely outside his field of research. It has something to do with a painting that was sent here about a week ago." Melissa said. "I haven't seen it myself, but I heard him talking with the lead scientist about it, and the painting is supposed to be of Sun Wukong from almost a thousand years ago."
"Why do I feel like I'm suddenly not relevant?" Izumi sighed.
"That's just how they get when they meet up with each other." Gine smiled. "Don't take it personally. I've been on the receiving end of it as well."
"Oh, right Young Midoriya. Allow me to introduce you to my friend Dave's daughter." All Might said.
"It's really nice to meet you, I'm Melissa Shield."
"Hi it's really nice to meet you. I'm a first year student at U.A High School, Izuku Midoriya." Izumi said.
"In the hero course?" Melissa asked. "So that's how you know Uncle Might and Kaen."
"Actually Izumi and I have been good friends since preschool." Kaen smiled. "We actually met during the incident that put Asura in the position of being my vassal."
"She'll be a great pro one day." All Might smiled.
"I can't believe I'm meeting someone that Uncle Might teaches and Kaen works with." Melissa said.
"Why so surprised. Mina's in the same class as us so you've already met someone else All Might teaches." Kaen snickered.
"You must have a promising future." Melissa said, getting in Izumi's face.
"Well, I hope so, but I have a lot to learn." Izumi stated. "Tons of training."
"So, what kind of Quirk do you have?" Melissa asked circling Izumi.
"It's a power type." Izumi said, getting nervous with Melissa checking out her gear.
"The costume's cool. Though it's a pretty simplistic design." Melissa said. "I don't see any support items either."
"Here we go." Kaen sighed.
"What?" Mina inquired.
"Melissa's gone into scientist mode. Usually she gets lost in her work when this happens, and doesn't really notice she's doing something to make someone uncomfortable." Athena explained.
"Kinda like Mei."
"It looks like you should think about upgrading your gear a bit." Melissa stated.
"At least Izumi's not suffering from any permanent damage." Kaen said. "That's a bonus."
"Ahem, Melissa, shall we?" All Might asked.
"Oh sorry. I got distracted." Melissa said, turning the upgraded pogo stick into a pocket sized device. "If we hurry, we can surprise Papa in his lab. This way everyone, it's right over here." She said.
"Lead the way Melissa." Kaen smiled as they followed her.
"Honey." Gine said, stopping All Might as the others left. "David is gonna wonder what's going on with Kaen's Quirk. You might wanna consider making a story for why it's not the Ashura Quirk he's had for six years."
"You're right. But not to worry, I've already come up with a story as to why it's different." All Might said, before they gave chase to the others.
~Airport/Island Entrance~
It was bustling around the airport as people were coming and going. Though there was one group of eight, who should have drawn attention to themselves, but since the island had mainly been peaceful, it was no surprise that they weren't drawing a crowd, as the leader rang up someone's number.
"We infiltrated the Expo without a problem. So, when do the goods arrive?" The man asked, his contractor.
"3Pm. You'll find them at Gate66." A robotic sounding voice, said.
"Then we'll be waiting." He said, putting his phone down. "Newbies. You'd better be ready for your first job as a member of my crew."
"Yes sir, Wolfram sir." The new recruit said. "The hammer of True Justice will be brought down on I-Island this night."
"Just shut it and follow my lead. I know where we need to go, and what we need to do after getting our gear. The layout of this island, is a piece of cake, for someone who used to be a well known and respected scientist." A woman's voice said, with glowing red eyes.
~Center of the Island Laboratories I-Island Tower~
David Shield stood idly in his lab, looking at a picture of All Might from their university days, in the Young Age suit he made for his friend. When seeing that photo, he began to reminisce about the first time they met after the explosion in his lab caused a fire.
"Excuse me, um Professor?" Someone asked coming into the lab gaining his attention. "I've finished putting the equipment away, just so you know."
"Already? Thanks so much Sam." David smiled.
"Why don't you get out of the lab today and get some lunch with Melissa?" Sam questioned.
"She's busy today at the academy." David said.
"Oh, I thought they were on break for I-Expo?" Sam questioned.
"Yes, but she's doing independent research." David said, not noticing Melissa standing in the doorway to her lab.
"You know me, I am my father's daughter." Melissa smiled. "For better and for worse."
"Melissa hey." David said.
"Hello Miss, it's so good to see you." Sam said.
"Aw, right back at ya Sam." Melissa said. "Thanks for always taking care of Papa, since he does nothing but work here constantly."
"C'mon I'm not that bad." David tried to argue as Sam laughed a bit.
"Melissa says you are. Here have a ham and cheese sandwich." Gine said, holing a plastic wrapped ham and cheese sandwich to David. "You look like you haven't eaten in a few days."
"Oh thanks." David said, taking the sandwich. He was about to open it and take a bite when he realized someone else was in the room with them. He looked to Melissa's right and saw Gine standing there with a smile on her face.
"Hi there Dave, long time no see." She smiled.
"Gine?" David questioned. "You're here?"
"That's not all. Since you've completed the first stage of your research, I've invited someone here to celebrate with us. A person you dearly love." Melissa smiled looking behind her.
David followed her gaze, and his eyes widened with shock.
"Yes. I am here. Shaking with emotion for our heartfelt reunion." All Might cheered posing as dramatically as ever.
"Toshi, All Might." David said in shock.
"Is it really you?" Sam questioned.
All Might just laughed before he rushed over to David, and pulled him into a giant hug, swinging him about like a rag doll. He dropped the sandwich, but Gine caught it before it could hit the ground.
"I came all this way, just to see you Dave old buddy." All Might said.
"Well Papa are you totally surprised?" Melissa asked.
"Uh, yeah. Completely astounded." David smiled.
"We both have Melissa to thank for that. Man how long has it been?" All Might questioned.
"Aw come on. Don't make me say it, I already feel old enough you jerk." David smiled before they both started laughing.
"You do have a point." All Might smiled. "Glad to see you again, my friend."
"Agreed. I've missed you to." David smiled as they fist bumped.
"Yo, Uncle David. We're not invisible are we?" Kaen smiled, as All Might stepped to the side.
"Oh no, I could never forget the one who named my fine synthetic metal." David said, bringing him and Athena in for a hug. "Speaking of which, I heard about your battle against Stain. I have something for you while you're here, if you're interested."
"I don't have much going on." Kaen smiled.
"Young Midoriya, Young Ashido, let me introduce you to someone incredible, David Shield." All Might said.
"I know him." Izumi smiled. "Professor David Shield. A top scientist the research world, who received the Nobel Quirk Prize. He was All Might's partner when he lived in America. An' he's a genius when it comes to costumes. All Might's Young Age, Bronze Age, the Silver Age, and of course, the Golden Age. He's the inventor who created each of those iconic looks."
"Wow, you really are a fan girl, aren't ya Izumi?" Mina smiled.
"I never thought I'd get to meet him in real life." Izumi said, getting closer to them. "I'm, just so moved."
"It seems I don't have to introduce myself." David said.
"Oh wow, I'm sorry." Izumi said, bowing to him.
"No, don't apologize." David smiled. "Listen, it's been a long time since All Might and I had an opportunity to chat like this. Why don't the rest of you go out and enjoy the Expo, give the two of us a chance to catch up?"
"Sure, we'll see you at the dinner party tonight." Gine smiled.
"I'll see you all there." David chuckled. "Melissa, why don't you take them on a tour around the expo?"
"Sure thing Papa sounds like fun." Melissa smiled
"You're not busy?" Izumi asked.
"No, I'm honored to show off our hard work to a future hero." Melissa smiled. "But before we go, there's still a couple people Papa still hasn't met yet."
"Really?"
"Oh yeah, where'd Aunt Fasha go?" Athena asked.
"I'm right here." Fasha smiled popping up behind David and scaring him. "My name's Fasha. It's nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you to." David said.
"There's one other person you have to meet." Melissa said. "An' it came as a shock to me as well, so brace yourself."
"Eri, come on out." Kaen said, to the girl hiding behind Mina.
Eri poked her head out from around Mina, before stepping out completely, being a bit shy as she stood in front of Mina.
"David Shield, I'd like to introduce you to Eri Yagi, my granddaughter." Gine smiled.
"G-granddaughter?" David questioned.
"I'll explain it as we're catching up. But just know, Kaen has my support on this decision." All Might said. "Now off with you all. David, Gine and I must catch up."
"Okay, right this way everyone." Melissa smiled, leading everyone, minus Gine and All Might, out of the lab.
"Sam, you should take a break to. Go get some lunch." David said.
"Right." Sam said, following the others out the door. "See you soon."
With Sam gone, All Might relaxed into Toshinori with a sigh, as Gine came to his side.
"So, you've certainly got a lot of explaining to do." David said. "First, let me take a look at your Quirk Levels. Make sure that nasty virus All-for-One infected you with, hasn't done too much damage."
"A virus, really?" Gine asked, as David went into the other room where he couldn't hear them.
"It's the only thing that I could come up with that makes sense for when I lose the final embers of One-for-All." Toshinori said. "I can't exactly tell him the truth about my power, now can I?"
"You make a fair point. But I'm sure we could have come up with something better then a virus. We don't exactly wanna start a pandemic, now do we?"
~With Melissa~
"So what should I call you? By your real name, or do you have a hero one already?" Melissa asked.
"Well actually…" Izumi paused before she smiled. "Why don't you call me Deku."
"Deku?" Melissa asked. "That's kind of a strange nickname. You can stick with Melissa for me."
"That's what she chose for a hero name." Kaen smiled. "Honestly, I think it suits her nicely. She's using what used to be an insult, and wearing it as a badge of honor and pride."
"That sounds more like something you would do Kaen." Melissa smiled.
"Maybe, maybe not." He snickered.
~Expo Festivities~
"Holy whoa, it's so cool here." Izumi said, looking around the Expo, walking through the streets. "I can't believe the entire island is man made, it's nuts."
"An' there's normal city stuff. About everything you could need." Melissa said giving them the tour. "The big downside is we can't travel."
"Really? Why not?" Mina questioned.
"The scientists and their families have to keep their work top secret. That insures there aren't any leaks. Anyone wanting to leave the island has to fill out paperwork that swears them to secrecy." Melissa explained..
"Ah, it's the Monster Hero Godzillo." Izumi said, spotting the giant hero.
"Wow, I've only ever seen him on TV." Someone said.
"His Quirk is so insane."
"Nice, I bet a sponsor flew him out here for the Expo." Melissa said. "They invite heroes from all over to show off new gear and sign autographs."
"AAAHHH. It's him. The mysterious hero who's supposed to make a surprise appearance." One of several girls in a group said, after shrieking in excitement.
"Uh what?" Kaen asked.
"She's talking about this." Melissa said handing him an Expo Guidebook, showing him the back of it.
"My guidebook didn't have this on the back." He said.
On the back cover of the guidebook, was a picture of his suit with a black manly silhouette, with the words Mysterious Hero will make a surprise appearance at the Expo wearing this new state of the art suit, written in big white letters. But looking at the name of the one who organized this, he suddenly regretted coming to the Expo.
"Melissa." Kaen said looking at her, with an irritated look, while Melissa was just whistling innocently.
"So, where are you from?" One of the girls asked grouping around him.
"What's your Quirk?"
"What's your hero name?"
"Are you in a relationship? Do you have a girlfriend?"
As the group of girls gathered around Kaen, asking him question after question, Mina was looking at the situation with a bit of an annoyed face, and glaring at the girls.
"Why do they get all his attention?" She questioned.
"Uh-oh, looks like someone's a little jealous." Melissa said, before bending down to Eri. "Why don't you go and rescue him from the horde of girls?"
Eri looked at Melissa who only motioned with her head to go, to which the young tiger girl did with a smile on her face.
"Papa, Papa." Eri called pushing through the girls. "C'mon you said we could go to the Support Gear Exhibit. You promised." She whined, pulling on his arm.
"Oh my gosh, she's adorable."
"She's your daughter? Oh wow, she looks so cute dressed as a hero. Already wanting to follow in your footsteps."
"So cute I could just eat her up."
Seeing the opportunity to make his escape, Kaen lifted Eri up and put her on his shoulder, with a smile.
"Sorry ladies. I have to go, a promise is a promise." Scythe chuckled walking off, with Melissa and Mina following behind.
Eri turned around to the girls and stuck out her tongue while pulling one of her eyelids down.
"That was a clever trick." Athena smirked, as Eri happily swung her legs.
"You know, a lot of the pro heroes will be at the big party tonight. Of course I'm sure you all knew that already, since you came with Uncle Might." Melissa said.
"Problem is we don't have any formal clothes for Eri." Kaen said.
"We can fix that no problem. There is a tailor shop in the normal city area. Besides if you wear your hero costumes, it won't matter." Melissa smiled. "Look, over there. You definitely have to check this place out. It's the Support Gear Exhibit." She said pointing to a building.
"Well Eri did make the excuse for seeing this exhibit to get me away from the girls who were surrounding me. So I guess we could check it out."
Inside, the building was filled with all sorts of different hero items. All of them brand new and not even on the market yet, but were patented by David Shield and other well known as respected scientists.
"I've never seen so many hero items in one place." Athena said in awe.
"Deku look at this one." Melissa said, pointing to what looked like a pterodactyl skull. "This multi-purpose beagle can fly like a jet of course, but it can also maneuver under water."
"So cool." Izumi said.
Next, they went to a take filled with water and a diver going deeper into the depths.
"You can wear this diving suit, and drop up to seven thousand meters in the ocean." Melissa said as they moved to a different part of the exhibit.
"That's so deep." Izumi gasped, before Melissa stuck a helmet on her head.
"This helmet is equipped with 36 different sensors, so you can see all the way around your body." Melissa said.
"That's so much." Izumi said, her face appearing on the large screen from the sensor.
"You know, almost everything here was created using different inventions, that Papa Patented." Melissa said.
"Wow, I bet you're proud of him." Izumi said.
"These support items will help heroes around the world. Who knows how many people will be affected because of his hard work?" Melissa questioned.
"I think it's great that Uncle David is someone you can look up to, just like how I look up to mine." Kaen said with a smile.
"That's because it's my dream to become a scientist just like him." Melissa stated.
"Oh yeah? So does that mean you're training at the school here on the island?" Izumi asked.
"Mhmm, I'm a third year." Melissa smiled.
"The I-Island Academy, is where everyone who dreams of becoming a scientist wants to go. You must be a real genius." Izumi said.
"Oh no, I've still got a lot to learn." Melissa said. "Honestly I should be studying much more."
"Learn to take a compliment Melissa." Kaen said. "You're nothing to sneeze at. You're incredible, in your own unique way. I'm sure one day, you'll be greater then Uncle David."
"But still, I feel the same as you Melissa. If I wanna become a great hero like All Might, then we've both still got a long way to go." Izumi smiled.
"Uncle Might really holds a special place in your heart, doesn't he Deku?" Melissa asked. "I still can't get over how much you were geeking out earlier."
"Oh, yeah sorry about that." Izumi said blushing a bit. "I'm kind of a fan boy."
"Looks like you're having fun, Kaen."
"Uraraka? What are you doing here?" Kaen asked.
"It looks like you're having fun." Uraraka repeated.
"You said that already." Athena said.
"Ahem." Someone fake coughed and he turned to see two more of his classmates.
"Yaoyorozu?" Kaen questioned.
"You appear to be having a good time."
"Midoriya. I heard everything." Jiro said, letting them know she was there to.
"Jiro's Earphone Jack. The ultimate spy tech." Izumi said.
"Are these your friends?" Melissa asked.
"Yeah, they're some more of my classmates, and I didn't tell them I'd be here." Kaen said. "Girls I'd like you to meet my cousin Melissa. She was just showing us around the Expo a little bit."
"Nice to meet you. My dad and Uncle Might are really good friends." Melissa said. "I invited the others here to surprise my dad to celebrate a breakthrough in his research he's been doing. How about we all grab some tea at the café?"
"That sounds lovely." Momo smiled.
"Hold on… where'd Aunt Fasha run off to now?" Kaen asked.
"I think she said something about having to take care of something that was bugging her, so she'd meet up with us in a bit." Athena said.
"Excuse us." A couple of men said, coming up to their group.
"Uh, can we help you?" Kaen asked.
"Kaen, these are the security guards for the lower level research stuff in the central tower I showed you." Melissa said.
"Are you Kaen Yagi?" One of them asked.
"Uh yeah that's me. Is something wrong?" Kaen inquired.
"No, nothing like that. Professor Xiao Long and Rose are requesting your appearance." One of the guards said.
"Okay, if it's important, then I guess I can go." Kaen said, putting Eri down. "Behave for Mama and the others, and it you do, I'll take you on a ride later, okay Eri?"
"Okay Papa." Eri said.
"I'll meet up with you all, as soon as I can." Kaen said, giving Mina a kiss, before following the security guards back to the labs.
"Well you heard him, he'll meet up with us as soon as he can. Let's hit up that cafe." Mina smiled.
"You know I'm curious about something." Athena said. "What could have been bothering Aunt Fasha so much that she'd leave our group?"
~Gate66~
A loud thud echoed from withing the chamber room, and Wolfram was slammed into the wall, with a Ki blast piercing his shoulder, severing his right arm from his body.
"The hell? What kind of monster are you?" Wolfram questioned.
"The kind, who won't let you ruin her niece and nephews vacation to the I-Expo." Fasha said, holding a Ki blast in her hand. "By the time they find your smoldering corpses, there won't be anything left of you to identify."
"Heroes don't kill. It's a rule that's broken on the rarest of occasions." Wolfram glared, as he looked at the burning forms of his men, the two newbies nowhere to be seen.
"I'm not a hero." Fasha said. "But you could say, I'm a vigilante of sorts. An' I'm not squeamish, about taking a life."
With that said, Fasha released her Ki blast, destroying Wolfram's head and lighting it on fire.
"Those two who got away must have some descent Ki control. I can't sense them anywhere on the island. Either that, or they managed to escape through a portal of some kind." Fasha said. "Well, it doesn't matter. They've got nothing else to gain from staying, so unless they try something, I won't go after them." She yawned, stretching her arms and back. "Still, I can't help but feel like this was only the calm before the storm."
~Café~
"Wow, you actually got to work with Pro Heroes, like out in the field?" Melissa questioned.
"Just some normal training and a few patrols." Uraraka said. "Though I guess you could say it was an experience, since I was interning under Gunhead's tutelage."
"I helped out with a hostage crisis, but only the evacuation part." Jiro smiled.
"That's still amazing though." Melissa smiled.
"Somehow I ended up in a TV commercial for hair products." Momo said, blushing a bit.
"Sounds like an experience. Lucky." Melissa smiled.
"All that's nothing compared to what Kaen and Mina went through though." Izumi smiled, enjoying her drink. "Kaen took down the Hero Killer Stain, and his Apprentice."
"I didn't do anything special myself." Mina said. "I was just working with Edgeshot, and ended up getting kidnapped by my own father."
"But enough about that. We were thinking of going to the Pavilion to check out where the academy's exhibit is gonna be tomorrow." Jiro said.
"I'm really excited." Uraraka smirked.
"I never even considered going to that." Mina said, as a piece of cake with blue icing and a lemon, designed to look like All Might's smiling face and hair, was placed in front of her.
"Sorry for the wait ladies, will there be anything else I can get you?"
"Hey, I know that voice, Kaminari?" Izumi asked, looking up at the blonde electric.
"Is that, Mineta from Class-B?" Uraraka questioned.
"What are you two doing here?" Jiro asked.
"They needed extra wait staff for the I-Expo, and since it meant a free trip to the island, we applied to work. Right?" Kaminari questioned.
"We get to explore the Expo on our breaks, and we make some money, plus there's a chance we'll passionate encounters with some of the cute… Oh my god I think I'm in love." Mineta said, stopping his perverted fantasy when he spotted Melissa.
"Don't even think about it boys." Mina said sliding the cake to Eri. "Kaen's on the Island, so if you try flirting your perversions with his cousin, then you can kiss your sorry little lives goodbye."
"Why wait for him, when I can do the deed just as easily?" Athena questioned.
"Are they also your classmates?" Melissa asked.
"One of them is, but the other is a member from Class-B, since we're in Class-A." Uraraka said plainly.
"The purple grape haired kid is the Class-B student." Jiro stated. "He was kicked out of Class-A during the assessment test, on the first day, and transferred to Class-B after the Sports Festival when he did better then one of their students during the events, and switched places with him. Before that he'd been moved to general studies."
"But the one thing they have in common is, they're a couple of perverts, so stay away from them no matter what." Mina said. "When we were cleaning ourselves up after the Sports Festival, Jiro and I found them hiding in lockers, trying to peek at us."
"That bad huh?" Melissa asked. "Make your skin crawl kinda creepy?"
"Yep." Momo said.
"Why are you two just slacking off? You wanted to make more money didn't you? But you're not willing to work hard?" Iida questioned running towards Kaminari and Mineta.
"Iida?" Uraraka questioned as he zipped past them, causing a gust of wind to blow over their group. "You're here to?"
"I come from a long line of heroes. It's to be expected that we received an invitation to the Expo, but my family was busy. So it's just me." Iida said.
"I wondered if you'd be here." Momo said. "I received an invitation because my father's a shareholder in some of the Expo's sponsor companies. It's so fun getting to go to the preview of the Expo."
"Yeah, and she had a few extra plus ones, so we basically gambled for them with Tsu and Hagakure." Jiro smiled.
"Rock, paper, scissors?" Mina asked.
"Uh… maybe." Jiro said. "The other girls are here, they just can't visit the preview."
"Oh are they really?" Izumi asked.
"Uh-huh, we're all planning to look around together once the Expo opens up to the public tomorrow." Momo said.
"Here's a thought, why don't I show you girls the sights?" Melissa questioned.
"You sure you have time?" Uraraka questioned.
"Mmhmm." Melissa nodded.
"That's awesome." Uraraka, Jiro, and Momo cheered.
"Please take us with you." Kaminari and Mineta pleaded.
"Perverts like you two aren't invited." Jiro said.
Before anyone could retort to what she said, there was a large explosion, and a loud rumbling coming from somewhere near the events area, as the ground beneath their feat shook for a minute.
"What was that noise?" Izumi questioned, turning to look in the direction the rumbling might have come from.
"That's the direction of the Villain Course." Melissa said.
A pillar of smoke was rising up from where the battle bots were. It was an arena with a contest to see who could beat the battle bots faster. Though it was no surprise the bots looked just like the ones from the U.A Entrance Exams, and Sports Festival. I-Island was the place providing the academy with them.
The entire group rushed to the arena and they got there just in time to see the latest contestant finish off the robots that were there.
"A clearance time of 33seconds. He's in eighth place." The announcer called out as the smoke cleared, revealing Kirishima being the contestant.
"Kirishima?" Izumi asked.
"So I'm guessing he's from U.A as well?" Melissa asked.
"Yeah, he's in the same class as us." Mina said. "He's also the one, Athena has a crush on."
"I-I do not." Athena said.
"Aunty Athena's face is turning red." Eri said, sitting on Mina's shoulders.
"Please welcome our next challenger." The woman announced as Katsumi came walking out to the arena.
"Kacchan?" Izumi questioned.
"The Villain Attack Course has been reset. Ready? Go." The announcer called as Katsumi sent himself flying towards the robots, destroying each of them with an explosion, as he zipped around the mountain range like a bee in a field of flowers. "Look at that time. Only fifteen seconds." The announcer woman called out as all the robots were destroyed. "First place." She proclaimed as Katsumi landed on the ground in a superhero landing pose.
"Hey, isn't that Midoriya in the stands?" Kirishima pointed out as Katsumi was walking back.
The blonde walking explosive looked up to see Midoriya, and the others, in the stands watching the show.
Katsumi leapt into the air, and used her Quirk to rocket to the group, landing in front of Izumi on the railing with an angered look in her eyes.
"Damn it, what are you doing here, Deku?" Bakugo questioned.
"Cool your jets Katsumi. Or I'll have to cool them for you." Athena said, cracking her knuckles. "I might not be in the hero course, but I'm still capable of kicking your ass."
"Swear." Eri said, holding a jar out to Athena.
"Why is that girl so angry?" Melissa asked.
"That's just who she is." Jiro stated.
"She and Deku are fated rivals." Uraraka stated.
"So, Kirishima you got asked to I-Expo as well?" Momo questioned.
"Nah, Mina gave her invite for winning the Sports Festival to Bakugo. I just tagged along because she needed a plus one." Kirishima smiled. "You guys gonna try this villain course or what?"
"Don't even try it." Katsumi glared. "There's no way you'll get a better score then I did."
"Yeah, you're probably right, yep." Izumi said.
"Huh, I'm not so sure, only one way to find out I guess." Uraraka said.
"Yeah, you're probably right… eh?" Izumi questioned.
"Just hurry and get your pathetic attempt over you damned nerd." Katsumi said, getting in Izumi's face. "Then you get out of here."
"Right, I'll do that." Izumi said.
A few moments later, Izumi was standing on the center platform, ready to get started.
"We've got a new challenger coming in at the last minute. Will she end up on top, or fail in front of the entire expo?"
'If I'm doing this, I'm going to gonna go all out.' Izumi thought, coursing One-for-All, through her body, creating a large shockwave of pressure. 'One-for-All, Full Cowling.'
"The Attack Course is set. Ready." The announcer said. "Go."
The instant she called out for the start, Izumi went running towards the robots. Destroying one after the other, clearing them in ultra fast speed. As soon as she was finished with destroying the robots, she leapt from the mountain area, and let out a deep breath, as she landed back on the platform.
"An incredible run, she's in second place at sixteen seconds." The announcer said called out.
"That was incredible Deku." Uraraka smirked.
"Thanks." Izumi smiled. "I didn't think I'd be able to get so close to Kacchan's time."
"What? No way, I'll go again, and blast your score to ash." Katsumi shouted, before the ground rumbled and shook, as the announcer girl let out a squeal.
"Ah, this is insane." The announcer woman cried out as the arena mountain scape becoming completely frozen in ice. "Fourteen seconds. This gentleman has jumped to first place."
"Huh, Todoroki's here, and he did better than Katsumi. Guess there are advantages to only using his ice." Athena said, before Katsumi jumped into the arena and challenged Todoroki.
"Hey, there you all are. I see you met up with some of your friends." Fasha said.
"Um, sorry who are you?" Uraraka asked.
"This is mine and Kaen's Aunt Fasha." Athena said. "Her sister was our biological mother, and was married to our current mother's brother."
"Wait, what?" Jiro asked.
"Ms. Gine is our aunt and adoptive mother, as our biological parents are dead, and Fasha was the older sister to our biological mom, and our dad was the older brother to our current adopted mom." Athena simplified.
~With Kaen~
"Wow, so this is where Rose and Xiao Long's parents work?" Kaen questioned, looking around the room.
"You know it big guy." Yang smiled.
"Xiao Long. So I take it you're the reason why I was brought here?" Kaen asked.
"Sort of. Ruby and I are just visiting for the Expo. We go as a family every year. But anyways, when I saw my parents working on the painting, with David Shield no less, I mentioned how it looks exactly like you, and that with your connection to the Shield Family, you might actually be here. When they pulled up security feed and found where you were, they sent the escorts to bring you."
"Oh my gosh." A woman, who looked like an older version of Ruby, wearing a lab coat, with a black tank top and a matching flaming rose emblem to Ruby's, a pair of skinny jeans, and low heeled boots. But what was different was, she was well more developed then her daughter, with a G-Cup chest. "You must be Kaen Yagi. You really do look just like the Monkey King in the painting."
"I noticed when it was part of the Yaoyorozu's collection." Kaen said. "So tell me, why am I here?"
"Oh right, follow me." Summer said pulling him through the lab to where the painting was, with Ruby, and a blonde man, with stubble, wearing a lab coat, and an orange t-shirt and khaki shorts. "Tai, Ruby, he's here."
"Hey Kaen." Ruby smiled.
"Hey Rose."
"So you're the great Mr. Yagi I've heard so much about." Tai said, shaking his hand.
"Call me Kaen." He said. "So, what am I needed for?"
"Well, we've got a bit of a situation." Summer said. "The painting is indeed almost a thousand years old, from the 15th to 16th century era, but what we can't figure out is, how it relates to you so well."
"With all the data Ruby's sent us about you, we've determined that there was to be a hidden message somewhere on the painting, that only you can find, or read." Tai stated.
"Well, I'll give it my best shot, but I'm no scientist." Kaen said. "So, what can I help with?"
"Well after studying the artifacts sent with the painting, we're noticed they respond to some sort of energy." Tai said, showing Kaen where the ancient weapons of the Monkey King, were hung.
"I pointed out that it was probably Ki, and since you're a master of Ki manipulation, it might work if you give it a try." Ruby said.
"I can do that, no problem." Kaen shrugged.
With Ruby, Tai, and Summer stepping back, Kaen held out one of his hands, before he enveloped it with Ki. Focusing on reaching out for the weapons, something happened, that none of the scientists expected, as the weapons of the Monkey King, flew from their shelves, and into Kaen's hands.
"Holy cow." Tai gasped.
"Guess Ki really was the answer to the mystery." Summer said.
"So what now?" Kaen questioned, the Monkey King's bow staff over his shoulders.
"Well, if Ki was able to draw the weapons to you, then maybe… Kaen go to the painting. Place your hand on it, and send a pulse of Ki through the painting, like you did with the weapons." Summer instructed.
Kaen just shrugged his shoulders and did as instructed. Putting his hand on the painting, Kaen sent a pulse of Ki through it, the same way he'd done so, when focusing on the weapons. But what happened next, none of them expected. The painting began to move, and look more realistic, as if it were an actual film, instead of a painting, like it was a screen projecting a film of the Monkey King flying through the air, before the Monkey King in the painting, began to speak.
"Answer this riddle correctly, and my true power, shall be yours." The Monkey King said. "I can fly, but have no wings. I can cry, but I have no eyes. Wherever I go, darkness follows me. What am I?"
"Did… did the painting just move and talk?" Ruby questioned, as the painting went still, and returned to looking like a painting again. "Like it was a motion picture film?"
"Whatever this treasure is, only someone with the ability for Ki manipulation, can access the map, to it." Tai said.
"You really think it's treasure he was talking about?" Summer questioned.
"What else could he mean, by his true power?" Tai asked.
"Looks like we'll be here until the party tonight." Ruby sighed.
"You might, but I'm not gonna be stuck here. I have Mina and Eri waiting for me down at the Expo Preview. But at this point I should just head to my hotel room, shower, and get ready for the party." Kaen said, heading for the door. "See ya."
~David's Lab~
All was quiet in the lab as Toshinori lay in the examination pod, with David and Gine at the computer, before the screen beeped, and the results of the examination were projected to them.
"I don't get it Toshi." David said, as the pod opened, and Toshinori stepped out. "Why are your Quirk levels going down so dramatically? I know you were infected by that Quirk Erasing Virus by All-for-One, but to suddenly get these numbers is absurd. What in the world happened to you?"
"I suppose, if you're a hero for a long time, your body starts to fall apart." Toshinori said. "An' maybe the more I use my power, the faster it'll be devoured by that virus."
"So far, I've been able to isolate the virus. It's not a contagion by any means, so it can't spread like the flu or the common cold. It's just focused on Toshi's Quirk. Which means it should disperse and die out once it's finished its job. But, finishing its job, would also mean that Toshinori would…"
"Lose his Quirk, and be forced to retire." David said, realizing what Gine was saying.
'I wish we could tell him the truth about my power. But if we did, we'd risk getting him and Melissa caught up in the fight against All-for-One.' Toshinori thought.
"At this rate, the Symbol of Peace will disappear." David said. "The only reason Japan is able to keep its crime rate at 6%, is because of your presence. Other countries hover around 20%, and some are even worse then that. Honestly, a part of me wishes you never left. America could use you."
"There's no need for you to be so pessimistic Dave. The world is full of capable Pro Heroes, not to mention the people like you who support them." Toshinori said. "Besides, I can still fight the good fight until this virus takes my Quirk away, I'm not dead yet."
"Come on, what if a monstrous villain appears, and you're not capable of saving us again?" David asked.
"Listen." Toshinori said. "Just in case that day comes. Understand that I have no intention of stepping down."
"Besides David, there's still hope." Gine said. "For the future of our world, and the Symbol of Peace. A new Generation will rise, to take Toshi's place."
~Elsewhere~
"Damn it. Who was that woman? How did she know our group was coming?" Seryuu questioned, pacing around the room she and the other newbie to Wolfram's crew were hiding in.
"Calm yourself Seryuu. Panicking won't do anything but make the situation worse. We couldn't have anticipated there'd be a Quirk user, that powerful on hand." The woman said.
"Really Raven, you think?" Seryuu asked. "We started out, with fifty of us, but now we're all that remains."
"We're all that's needed to get what we came here for." Raven stated. "Besides, I've got someone, I know will help us, even if she refuses."
"An' who would that be Raven? We're facing off against an entire island full of heroes. It's not exactly gonna be a cake walk." Seryuu said.
"Let's just say, I know exactly where my daughter's loyalties lay." Raven said, her eyes glowing red with power and a villainous grin on her face.
~Later Around Sunset~
"*The I-Expo Preview will be closing at 6PM, thank you for coming, enjoy your night.*" The announcer said, her voice echoing around the island's preview expo area.
"Today was a blast. I had so much fun." Mina smiled.
"We've got a bit of time until the party, so we should use that to get ready and relax while we can before we're locked in a room full of scientists and heroes." Melissa smiled.
"I heard there'll be quite a few Pro Heroes attending tonight's party as well." Iida said.
"Oh boy, here he goes." Mina sighed. "Mr. Stickler for the rules is coming out to play. An' he's not even the class Rep."
"It's imperative we don't tarnish U.A's reputation." Iida added. "We'll change into our formal clothes, and go as a group. Everybody meet in lobby seven of the central tower at 6:30PM sharp." Iida said. "Don't, you dare be late. I'll contact Todoroki and Bakugo share this information. Thank you, you're dismissed."
"There he goes, always at full throttle." Izumi said, giving a thumbs up.
A short while later, they were at their hotel, and left to get ready.
"Meet you in a bit." Uraraka called out as they went their own ways.
"Bye." Izumi said, leaving for her hotel room.
"Deku." Melissa said, getting Izumi's attention. "Can I show you something, before you get ready for tonight?"
"Hmm?"
~Bakugo and Kirishima~
"Why would I want to go to a party? It'll just be a bunch of old geezers I don't know, giving speeches, sounds like a pretty lame night to me." Katsumi exclaimed lying back on her bed.
"But we could eat as much gourmet food as we want." Kirishima said.
"Well it's not like I brought any fancy clothes with me anyway." Katsumi stated.
"I figured you wouldn't." Kirishima smiled. "So we brought some stuff for you." He said, holding up a red dress with a blue short sleeved jacket and a white rose sewn into the side on the ribs.
"You gotta be kidding. You spiky haired idiot." Katsumi growled.
~Reception Hall Party~
All was calm and pleasant in the party. Everyone who was invited, was walking around the room, chatting it up with pro's and scientists. Kaen, Mina, and Eri were having a fun time as Kaen fed Eri the fancy sliced apple slices. Izumi and Melissa were chatting it up with some of the other professors, and even got into debates on how some Quirks could be utilized, to which Izumi surprised the professors to her wealth of knowledge on tactics and the use of Quirks. Even Fasha was enjoying herself. But the party was interrupted when the host of the party stepped up stage.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I-Expo's opening night reception." The host said. "We at I-Island hope you enjoy yourselves. Now I wonder, if we can get All Might, the #1 Hero, up here. He's visiting from Japan. Wouldn't you like to hear him say a few words? C'mon, maybe a round of applause would help. Please, join us on the stage."
All Might was just looking around, his smile as bright as usual on his face, but his mind was on the situation as to why Yang had to leave the island the same day she arrived.
"Really Dave? Could have warned me." All Might said as Dave came to his side.
"This was bound to happen once they found out you were in town." Dave said.
"He's right Hun." Gine smiled.
"You owe me one." All Might said, going up to the stage. "Thank you for inviting me, it's truly a pleasure to be here. Now, formal speeches aren't my thing but…"
All Might's speech was interrupted as the screen behind him went red, and a loud blaring alarm sounded through room.
"*This is an announcement from the I-Island security system. Several objects from space, have been detected, and are rapidly approaching the island. We ask all civilians quickly evacuate the Central Park Square Area, and return to your homes or hotels, immediately. Failure to cooperate within the next five minutes, will be treated as hostile retaliation, and will be dealt with as such.*" The synthetic voice of the security system echoed.
"Melissa, what's going on?" Kaen asked.
"I'm pulling up the security footage now." Melissa said, using her phone.
Bringing up the footage of outside, Melissa showed them the falling items, coming from the sky in a burning blaze, but when Fasha got a look at it, her eyes widened, when she was able to make out the shapes of the falling satellites, and she wasn't the only one, as Gine recognized them to, before Melissa dropped her phone, as the whole island shook, from the impact of the falling objects from space.
~Crash Sight~
All was not calm and quiet on I-Island, as smoke rose from the craters created by the three falling objects that fell from the sky. Within the crater, there weren't meteorites, or falling satellites from the atmosphere, but rather, three sphere shaped pods with clear windows in the doors, before they opened up with a hiss of steam.
From within the pods, stepped out three distinct looking beings, not of this world.
The first was a turquoise humanoid alien, with short blond hair that is curled to the left, and a green lens Scouter. He wore the same upper body armor as the Frieza Force, but with only a single pad on the left shoulder, with a full-length body suit that is purple in color.
The second was a tall, brown reptilian humanoid, with big yellow eyes, and pointy ears, wearing the same upper body armor as the first comrade, and has a partial purple jumpsuit that covers his torso to his thighs, with a blue lens Scouter connected to a head strap, that kept it on his head.
The third and final person was a large, green-skinned humanoid alien with long black hair, wearing the same upper body armor as his two comrades, a white helmet with a brown center, and is equipped with a yellow lens Scouter. Unlike his comrades, he does not wear any lower body armor, save for purple underwear.
"Neiz, Dore." The first man said.
"Yes Commander Salza." They saluted.
"Let's conquer this planet, in the name of Lord Cooler." Salza smirked.
