On the top floor of the Central Tower, the armed villain led David and Sam into the Control room. There were a few other villains inside, with one of them working at the computer console that controlled the security system.

"I brought the smart guy," Said the villain escorting the scientists.

"Good. Hurry up and unlock the vault." The villain at the computer said.

"You're not the boss here," The first one said as he removed his mask, revealing his peach colored hair. His left arm then turned into a metal blade and placed it against David's neck. "You heard him. If you want to keep your head on, I'd hurry up and do it."

David looked at the man nervously before looking back at Sam. "Sure, I'll begin." He told the villain.

The blade villain retracted his blade and turned back to the other armed men. "Take him." He ordered. The two masked villains obeyed and led the scientists to the vault.


Back down the emergency stairs, Wade and the others were running up the stairs. Trying to get to the top floor. However, as they continued up the seemingly endless stairwell, they stopped and looked at the floor number they were on.

"We're on level 30," Iida said, panting.

Wade looked back at Melissa, who was behind the others, and asked, "Melissa! What floor is the top?"

Melissa panted as she leaned against the railing. "It's on the 200th floor," she replied.

"That what?! That's way too many stairs!" Mineta cried in horror.

"It's better than running into the villains!" Momo told him.

Together, they all started running up the stairs again. Reaching the 40th floor. Then the 50th floor. As she ran with the group, Ochaco looked back to see if Melissa was still with them. She was, however the blonde girl was falling behind them. "Hey, Melissa! Are you alright? I can use my Quirk on you if you like," She said.

"Thanks, but I'll be fine," Melissa said, panting from exhaustion. But that didn't stop her. To make it easier for herself, she reached down, pulled off her shoes and threw them away. "Save your powers for when you need them!"

And so they continued on. Up to the 60th and then the 70th floor.

However, when they reached that floor, they stopped. Their way was blocked by metal blast doors. "We're blocked!" Iida exclaimed.

"What should we do?" Todoroki asked, panting next to Wade. "Break through it?"

"If we do that, then the security system would alert the villains." Melissa said. They couldn't take the risk if they wanted to make it to the top.

"Then why don't we just go through this door." Mineta asked exhaustedly as he reached up and grabbed the door handle behind them.

"Mineta!" Wade yelled.

"NO, DON'T!" Melissa screamed.

However, it was too late. Mineta pulled the door handle, causing a little red light to start blinking. Seeing the red light, Wade knew that the villains would know that they were now. "Oh that's bad. That's really bad." He said worriedly.

"I DIDN'T DO IT!" Mineta yelled in a panic.

"You're the one holding the handle! Alright, fuck it!" Wade grabbed Mineta and threw him into the other room, which was a giant hallway. "We'll have to find another way to the top!"

The group quickly ran into the hallway and started running down it as fast as they could. "Is there any other way to go up?" Todoroki asked.

"There's another emergency staircase like this on the opposite side!" Melissa informed the group.

"Then let's hurry!" Tenya said as everyone began to pick up the pace.

At that moment, before they could go any further, they stopped and gasped. Down the hallway, large metal doors were closing themselves. "The gates!" Wade exclaimed.

"The ones behind us are closing too!" Momo called out.

Trying to think of a way out of there, Iida gasped when he noticed a door a little bit away. However, it was on the other side of the closing metal doors in front of them. "Todoroki!"

"I'm on it!" The young prodigy quickly used his ice to create an iceberg. Sending it in between the doors to prevent them from closing. Iida then went through the gap and activated his Quirk. The blast of the engines burned the pant legs as he smashed through the closed gate.

"Everyone, through here! We'll cross here!" He ordered the others.

They went through the opening that Iida had created, and found themselves inside the giant room on the 80th Floor. It was a massive chamber that had a forest-like environment. The group ran through it on a wide walkway.

"What the heck is this place?" Wade asked, staring up at the trees.

"This is the Plant Factory." Melissa said, running alongside him. "This is where we conduct research on how Quirks influence plants."

"Hold on!" Jiro suddenly said, stopping the group. She pointed towards the elevator in the center of the giant room. Above the door, the screen showed the numbers ascending. "The elevator's coming up!"

"Don't tell me the villains found us!" Mineta whimpered with a horrified expression.

"Everyone, hide!" Wade ordered. "We'll let them pass." They all quickly rushed over to a nearby bush and hid behind it.

"Wouldn't it be easy to take the elevator once the villains leave?" Kaminari whispered.

Melissa shook her head. "No. Only authorized people can operate the elevators. And it's built like a bomb shelter, so we can't even break in and try," she told them.

"Of course it's not going to be easy!" Mineta complained.

They heard the elevator ding, before the doors opened. Stepping out of it were two villains. One was short and fat, while the other was tall, lanky, and with green spiky hair.

"They're villains alright." Wade said, glaring at the villains while observing them.

"They said the kids were here." Said the fat villain as he and his partner walked into the room.

"They just had to hide in a place like this." The tall villain complained.

"They're looking for us!" Ochaco whispered with her hands covering her mouth.

"Keep quiet!" Iida whispered.

"Oh man, I don't wanna die," Mineta whispered behind his mouth. This was felt by everyone. The teenagers prayered that the villains would keep going and not notice them.

"Yeah! We see you, you dumb kids!" The tall villain yelled, making the kids in the bush flinch.

This was really bad. If Wade and his friends were going to get to the top of the tower, it was very likely that they were going to have to fight the villains. With that in mind, and knowing that their lives were in danger, he prepared for battle.

"What did you say, you bastard?"

Wade's eyes widened. He knew that voice too well. "Don't tell me…" Looking over the bush, Wade was shocked to see not just Bakugo, but also Kirishima. The explorer's face was twitching in anger and the redhead could see it.

"What are you two doing here?" The fat villain demanded to know.

"That's what I want to know!" Bakugo growled.

"Hey cool out, man. Leave this to me," Kirishima said, interrupting his friend. After calming him down, he turned to the villains. "Sorry. We were looking for the reception and got lost. Can you point us in the right direction?"

"How did they get up to the 80th floor looking for the party?" Mineta asked as the others watched nervously.

"Don't lie to me or you'll regret it!" The tall villain yelled as he attacked. His hand morphed into a large, webbed claws and threw a displacement attack at Kirishima.

"Hey, watch out!" Bakugo yelled.

"Kirishima!" Wade yelled, jumping out of the bush to save his classmate.

However, while he wasn't able to get to the redhead, Todoroki did. Creating a glacier of ice in front of Kirishima, he shielded him from the attack.

Bakugo ran up to Kirishima, who had fallen down on the ground in shock when the ice formed in front of him. "This ice. It looks like…" Bakugo trailed off as he and the redhead turned to see who caused it. The cold smoke cleared itself and relieved Todoroki.

"Todoroki?!" Kirishima gasped.

However, it wasn't over. The glacier shook as the villains tried breaking it down. Knowing that they weren't going to stop, Todoroki kneeled down and spread his ice underneath Wade and the others. "We'll hold them back! Look for a way to the top!" He exclaimed.

"Wait what are you-?!" Wade was cut off when Todoroki sent them up on a pillar of ice. "Shoto!"

"I'll be fine! Go, I'll be behind you after I clean up this mess." Todoroki told Wade as he sent him and the team up towards a bridge.

Wade nodded down to him. "Alright! We'll leave it to you guys!" He yelled down to him.

"You guys are here too?" Kirishima asked in confusion as he and Bakugo walked up to Todoroki. "What the heck's going, Todoroki?"

"Didn't you hear the broadcast?" He asked the two friends. When he saw the confused looks on them, Todoroki sighed. "Nevermind, then. Some villains have taken over the tower."

Bakugo and Kirishima gasped in shock. "Wait, that's what this is all about?" The exploder asked.

"I'll explain later," Todoroki said as his glacier reached the bridge and the group jumped onto it. "There's no time for that now."

As the others ran across the bridge, Wade stopped and looked down at his friend. The villains had busted through the glacier with relative ease. He couldn't tell what the tall villain's Quirk was, but all he could do was pray that Todoroki, Bakugo, and Kirishima could defeat them and regroup with him and the others.

"Wade, come on!" Ochaco yelled, having stopped when she realized that he had.

Getting his head back into the game, Wade turned and ran after her and the others across the bridge. Together with Iida, they busted through the door in front of them. Allowing them all to run inside. However, they soon saw that the hallway on the other side was also completely sealed.

"This way's no good, either!" Iida exclaimed.

"Great, so what are we supposed to do?" Mineta complained. "We're like helpless mice stuck in a fancy cage!"

"We need a plan," yelled Kaminari.

Wade looked up and around the ceiling of the chamber, trying to figure out another way to the top. But that's when he spotted a small cover off on the edge of the ceiling. "Melissa, where does that vent lead to?" He asked the blonde girl.

Melissa looked at the vent he was pointing towards. "I think it leads to the maintenance room for the sunlight system," she said.

Iida smiled with hope. "That would mean there'd have to be an emergency ladder, right?"

"Well, yes, but it's a manual one. We can only access it from the inside," Melissa said.

"Not a problem." Wade said, jumping onto the railing of the bridge. "You all stay here. I'll get us in there."

Before the others could stop him, Wade jumped off and fired a web-line from his only web-shooter up towards the ceiling. He swung himself onto the wall and started crawling along it towards the ceiling. As the others watched, Wade crawled upside down onto the ceiling and grabbed the vent. With his super strength, Wade pulled the vent right off and threw it away.

Then he crawled into the ventilation system and followed it. When he reached the vent leading to the outside world, Wade punched it off and crawled out. With the wind blowing against him, Wade proceeded to run up the tower. When he reached the next vent, Wade ripped it off and crawled in.

Before long, he landed in the maintenance room. "Guess they didn't put much security in this room." He said to himself. Looking around, Wade spotted the ladder on the other side of the room. Along with an orange lever to bring it down.

Rushing over to it, Wade yanked it down. The trap door under the ladder opened, and the ladder deployed. "Alright! Come on up!" Wade yelled down to the other students, who started climbing it. "We're not out of the woods yet!"


Meanwhile, back in the control room, the villains were looking over the cameras trying to look for Wade and his friends. "Hey, what's the deal? Can't you find them?" The blade villain asked.

However, a moment later, they found them. However, Jiro used one of her earphone jacks to knock out the camera. "Damnit!" Growled the villain on the computer.

The blade villain then radioed the two they sent to stop the kids. "Hey, 80th floor! Those kids are getting away! What's going on down there!?"

"We're working on it!"

"Hey, check it out," Said the villain at the computer. The blade villain walked over and gasped. His comrade had pulled up the files on the kids, all showing that they were from U.A. High School and they were a part of the Hero Course.

"Damnit," The peach-haired man cursed before contacting Wolfram. "Boss, we've got a problem. These kids aren't normal. They're students from U.A.'s Hero Course."

"Those brats are probably trying to restore the security system. Be on alert! You sent out the security drones on the 80th floor, right?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Then raise any barriers from level 100 to 130 and let them pass freely."

"Huh?"

"Just do what I say."


"Seems like we've gotten pretty lucky," Kaminari said, noting how the metal doors on the floor they were on weren't down. Allowing them to run freely down the hall. "We've been able to get by freely since the 100th floor."

"Yeah, but do you think we lost them?" Ochaco asked.

"Not likely." Jiro added, running alongside the two.

"It's possible that they're leading us somewhere," Momo concluded.

"Likely. That's the only logical explanation," Iida said.

"Forget what they want us to do," Said Wade, running ahead of the group with a glare of determination. "We'll handle whatever they throw at us."

"Don't worry, Wade." Todoroki said. "We're behind you."

And so that the group continued forth towards the top of the tower. However, they stopped when they reached the laboratory on the 130th floor. Gathered outside the door, they looked inside. The laboratory glowed a greenish yellow hue that was caused by a giant power source.

However, on the catwalk were many small red robots. These were the security drones.

"There's so many!" Ochaco exclaimed.

"The villains aren't trying to block us anymore. It looks like they're trying to capture us, now." Said Iida.

"Then they know that we're Heroes in training." Wade concluded.

Hearing this Momo started to use her Quirk. Just as she did during the USJ, her back started to glow as the black-haired beauty created a conductor sheet. "If that's the case, then there's no point in holding back!"

Iida nodded in agreement. "You're right. We'll go ahead and commence with plan A," He told the others before turning to Kaminari. "You ready, Kaminari?"

"Right! I won't let you guys down!" The blonde lightning user said as he held out his arms.

Iida grabbed onto his arms and activated his Quirk. The speedster then began to spin around at very high speeds, before letting go and throwing Kaminari up into the air at the robots.

"Take this! Indiscriminate Shock: 1.3 million Volts!" Landing in the middle of the group of robots, Kaminari fired off a stream of electricity in all directions. However, the attack did little to destroy them, as the machines collapsed into themselves to shield their bodies.

"It's not working!" Wade exclaimed, being the only one outside of the sheet. His chest glowing slightly as his body absorbed the electricity.

Kaminari gritted his teeth in frustration. "Fine. Let's see how you like 2 Million Volts!" He yelled, cranking up the intensity of the electricity from his body.

"Don't!" Jiro called out from under the sheet. "If you do that, you'll…"

But it was too late. The lightning attack was stopped, and Kaminari was kneeling on the ground with a goof grin on his face.

"...You'll turn stupid." Jiro finished with a sweatdrop.

"Did it work?" Wade asked as the other came out from under the sheet. The plan didn't work, however. The machines redeployed and shot lines of metal cables at Kaminari. Tying him up.

"Kaminari!" Jiro yelled.

"They're too sturdy!" Mineta exclaimed.

The robots then turned towards the others and started rushing towards them.

"We don't have a choice!" Iida exclaimed. "Everyone, go to plan B!"

"Right!" Momo reached into her dress and created a smoke grenade from her breast. Pulling the pin, she threw it at the robots. When the grenades went off, they blanketed the robots in silver smoke with tiny, reflective particles. "We can jam their communications with these!"

"Take this!" Ochaco yelled as she and the other girls threw the smoke grenades at the robots. Distracting them and leaving them in a state of confusion.

"Let's go, Mineta!" Wade called out as he started bursts of webs at the robots.

"Hell yeah!" Mineta yelled as he started throwing his purple balls.

Together, their webs and balls landed on the robots. Causing them to become stuck on their tracks. This would create a pile up to form, as the robots behind the ones stuck crashed into them.

"It worked!" Mineta exclaimed. "Harem, here I come!"

"Dude, come on!" Wade said exasperatedly. However, he gasped when he saw the other robots jumping over the ones that were stuck. "Alright, looks like it's time for plan C!"

With the Full Gauntlet still activated, Wade activated Battle Focus. Flying a web-line at the drones, he yanked himself off the ground and went flying towards them. Melissa said he was about to use his full power with it. So Wade will start off with 30% of One-for-All.

With that, Wade punched the first robot in the face, destroying it and blasting all of the other drones away. Wade was astonished. His attack didn't hurt his arm and it was completely intact. He could do this!

Seeing Kaminari flying in the air, Iida jumped up and caught him. When he landed, he turned to Jiro.

"Jiro! Do they have backup?!" He called out.

On her knees, the punk-rock girl used her Quirk on the ground to hear if anything else was coming. Pulling her earphone jacks out of the ground, Jiro looked up at him and said, "Yes, and they're coming from the left!"

"Then we're heading the opposite way!" Iida said. Carrying Kaminari under his arm, the Class Rep led the others across the catwalk to the door.

"Wade, that was amazing! Where did you get that glove?" Ochaco exclaimed as she ran alongside him.

"It was a gift from Melissa." Wade said. Looking back, he saw Melissa running a little behind him and his crush. "Thanks, by the way. It works spectacularly!"

"Thanks! I'm so glad you brought it!" Melissa said with a smile.

Wade sheepishly smiled. "Yeah… about that. Can you tell me how to take it off?" Melissa and Ochaco looked at him exasperatedly, before giggling together.


On the 137th floor, the group stopped. Jiro went up to one of the walls and plugged in her earphone jacks to see if she could hear anything. After a few seconds, she told the others, "I hear a lot of security drones coming from the floor below."

"What about from above?" Wade asked.

Unplugging from the wall, she turned to him. "No. We're good to go."

"Alright then. Let's move!" Iida said.

Together, they rushed up the stairs and entered the 138th floor of the Central Tower. The Server Room. On both left and right sides of the giant chamber were many floors that had large servers. All were vital in running the tower.

The students ran down the long room before coming to a stop when the door on the other side started to open. Behind it were dozens of security drones. All of them activated and charged forward.

"It's a trap!" Iida exclaimed, while carrying Kaminari on his back.

"Alright, tin cans, who's first?!" Wade yelled, getting ready for battle.

"Wade, wait!" Melissa yelled, stopping him from attack. "If the servers here are damaged, then who knows how it could attack the security system."

At that moment, more drones dropped down from the floor above them. "How many of these things are there!?" Mineta cried in horror.

"Wade, you go on ahead!" Momo said, couching down and started forming a cannon from her back. "We'll protect the servers and stop the drones."

"She's right," Iida said, placing Kaminari down on the ground. "Wade. You go on ahead with Melissa! Find another route!"

"Right!" Wade nodded before turning to Melissa. "Melissa, Ochaco, let's go!"

"But…" Ochaco started to protest.

"Go with them!" Iida ordered. "They might need your help."

Now understanding this, Ochaco nodded. "Right!" she exclaimed. Together, the three ran the other way. Following Melissa as she led them through another way.

Leaving their friends to take on the horde of drones, Wade, Melissa, and Ochaco ran down another giant hallway. However the Spider-Man stopped in his tracks when he heard the sound of cannon shots. They had to have been from Momo.

"Wade, don't stop!" Ochaco exclaimed. Wade snapped out of it and continued running with her and Melissa. "If we get caught here, then there's no point in Iida and the others staying behind!"

"Right!" Wade said, before turning back to face forward. "Just hang in there, everyone!"


Kicking open the door, Wade and the girls made it outside onto the roof of the 140th floor. On the roof were multiple windmills connected to the main body of the tower.

"Melissa, what is all of this?" Wade asked, looking at all the windmills in wonder.

"This is the wind power generator system." She said as they walked further out onto the roof.

"That explains that, but why are we here?"

"If we go through the tower, the security drones will just ambush us. So we'll go up to the top all at once from here. There's an emergency exit we can use." She said, pointing up towards where it was.

"I can make it up there with no problems, but what about you two?" Wade asked, looking at Ochaco and Melissa.

"I can make myself weightless and float up with you while you carry Melissa on your back." Ochaco said with her bubbly smile.

Wade nodded and then lowered his back. "Melissa, get on!"

"Right!" The blonde girl quickly climbed onto his back.

"Alright, hang on!" Wade ran to the middle tower and jumped onto it. Melissa kept her grip on him as Wade's hands and feet stuck to the metal wall. He then started to climb up the tower.

Ochaco was about to follow them by making herself weightless, but she wasn't able to. Just when she was going to activate her Quirk, the door opened and out came a pack of drones.

"Oh no!" She said as the robots rushed towards her.

Wade stopped and looked back when he heard Ochaco, only to gasp when he saw his crush in danger. "Ochaco, get out of there! Hurry up and use your Quirk!" He shouted down to her.

"I can't!" She yelled back at him, turning to face the drone. Ochaco then got into a fighting stance. "I'll hold them off! You two save everyone!"

"Ochaco, no!" Melissa cried out.

"Dammit!" Wade was about to jump down and help her.

However, he didn't need to. Someone else came to the rescue. Just as one of the drones could attack her, Bakugo came flying and destroyed it with a single blast.

"Bakugo!?" Wade yelled in shock. More of the drones were stopped by ice, which trapped the robots. Wade looked to see Todoroki and Kirishima running out of the door Bakugo came from.

"Guys!" Ochaco exclaimed with a smile.

"Are you alright, Uraraka?" Shoto asked as he stood in front of her.

"I'm fine. Wade and Melissa are heading towards the top floor," Ochaco said, pointing up at Wade and Melissa. The two of them smiled in relief down at their friends.

"Good. Then you can help us fight off these drones!" Todoroki said as he fired a stream of ice.

"Who died and made you boss!" Bakugo yelled, destroying two more drones.

"Come on, man! You're a good team!" Kirishima said.

"DREAM ON!"

Wade grinned down at the others with hope. Ochaco was safe and the boys were still standing and fighting. "Thanks, everyone! I owe you all one!" He yelled down at them.

Wade then crawled up fast on the wall. When he reached the catwalk, Melissa quickly got on before he climbed up onto it too. They then ran around the tower and made it to the door. With a Smash attack powered at 30%, Wade punched the door and smashed his way into the building.

"We're in!"


The situation was getting worse for Wolfram. All of his planning was being ruined by a couple of kids from U.A.. And just when his real plan was about to come into play. Realizing that he had to step in, he got off the stage and walked towards the door, pushing past his men.

"Send Swordkill and the others!" Wolfram ordered into his earpiece.

"Yes sir!"

"Defend the control room until I get there!" Wolfram said as he left the reception room and went towards the elevator.

For All Might, the struggle to keep his form up was getting worse. But he had to hold on for just a little long. Wade and the others were getting closer to the control room. He was sure they could do it.


Wade jumped through the opening that he created, before turning around and helping Melissa step over the rubble. "How close are we?" He asked.

Melissa looked at the wall to her left and gasped with a smile. "We're on the 198th floor!"

"Great! We're getting closer!" Wade said.

However, in a moment's notice, Wade's spider senses went off. Looking up, Wade saw Swordkill coming at him with his arms turned into blades. The villain attempted to slice him with his Quirk, but Wade reacted quickly. Pushing Melissa out of the way, Wade crouched down and kicked Swordkill in the stomach.

Swordkill slammed against the stairs before getting back up and charged at Wade again. The young man blocked his strike with the Full Gauntlet.

"You shouldn't have come here!" Swordkill yelled.

"You shouldn't have threatened my friends!" Wade snapped back. "Now what are you villains doing here?!"

"You shouldn't try to play hero, kid!" Swordkill yelled as he transformed his other arms into another blade. He attempted to strike at Wade, who was caught off by this and narrowly dodged the slice.

The villain took advantage of this by kicking Wade in the chest. Knocking him through the hole in the wall and having him land on the catwalk. With the kid on the ground, Swordkill got ready to kill him. However, he was stopped by Melissa.

"Stop!" She screamed, grabbing onto his arm.

"Get off!" Swordkill yelled, throwing her off. Melissa cried out in pain as his blade sliced into her arm and she was thrown to the ground.

"Stupid little girl-"

Wade jumped at him with his right fist coursing with bioelectricity. He slammed his fist into the face of Swordkill, sending him flying into the stairs. The combined power of the punch and the electricity knocked out the peach-haired, with several of his bones broken from the impact.

"Melissa!" Wade rushed over to her, and the blonde girl held her arm in pain.

"It's fine. See? It's not too bad." She said, looking at the wound.

"Here, give me your arm." Wade gently grabbed her arm and covered her cut with his webbing. "I'm sorry. I was supposed to be protecting you, and I let you get hurt."

"It's alright, Wade," Melissa said with a smile. "And let's not forget that I also saved your life too."

Wade's eyes widened for a moment before smiling. "Right!" He stood up and offered her his hand. "Come on, let's end this together."

Together, they ran up the stairs to the 200th floor. Just as they were about to turn the corner, Wade quickly pushed Melissa back before bullets could riddle the two of them.

"There they are! Stop them!" Yelled one of the two gunmen at the top of the stairs. As they fired bullets, Wade rushed out into the open, effortlessly dodging every shot taken at him.

Landing on the ceiling, Wade launched himself at the first shooter and slammed him into the wall. Wade then fired a webline at the wall and pulled himself towards it when the second villain fired at him. Wade then rushed at him and punched him in the stomach. Knocking him down the stairs.

With all the villains standing in their way out of the fight, Wade and Melissa continued out to the 200th floor. Once they were at the top floor, they found themselves running through a series of hallways.

"Melissa, where's the control room?" Wade asked as he ran alongside the blonde girl.

"In front of the central elevator!"

However, just before they reached the control room, Wade and Melissa stopped at a corner. Spider-Man peaked around it and saw the door to what looked like a vault was open.

"Someone's there…" Wade muttered.

When Melissa saw who it was, she gasped in shock. "That's Papa!" She whispered. "What's he doing up on the top floor?"

"If I had to guess, the villains must have brought him here." Wade said with a scowl. "What is that room?"

"It's the storage room. But it's where all of the devices that were deemed too dangerous are locked away."

"Then the villains must be using him to get something from inside there." Wade concluded.

"We have to help him."

"Right." Together, Wade and Melissa silently moved forward.


David Shield knew that he shouldn't be doing this. That this was wrong. That if he did this, he was throwing his life's work, his good name, all that he's accomplished away. He kept telling himself that there had to be another way. That this plan was insane and that it was too risky. But what choice did he have? And if he had to do this, Dave would gladly do it again.

The moment the computer he was typing on beeped, Dave knew all the planning that went into this heist would all pay off. "I've unlocked it!" Dave told Sam. "Block 11-47."

"Wonderful!" Sam ran up the stairs towards the block. A holographic display appeared, saying that it was unlocked. "It's opening!"

When the block opened, it revealed a single briefcase inside. Sam hurriedly pulled it out and opened it. Revealing a sophisticated looking headset with six claws that also came with two gray cartridges and a blue container.

"You did it, professor!" Sam exclaimed, turning around to show the device to David. When the scientist laid his eyes on it, he smiled with relief. "Look, it's all here! It's perfect!"

"Finally…" Said David with a sigh of relief. Lowering his head down, his arms shook as he clenched his fists hard. "I got it back. All my research, and they just took my device away from me. But now it's mine."

"Just like we planned. And it looks like the villains are holding things down," Sam said.

"Thank you. I couldn't have done any of this without your help, Sam." David said, as he started to walk up towards his assistant.

Suddenly Wade appeared in front of him. "Is that right?"

David gasped and his eyes widened when the young man appeared before him. Glaring at the professor with his arms crossed. "Wade! H…H-How did you get here?" He asked, still in shock.

"Oh, you know. Fighting through hoards of your robots, sent by the villains that had taken over the tower!" Wade shouted angrily as he marched up to David, forcing him to step back down the stairs onto the floor. "But now I'm starting to wonder if that's really what's going on here."

David looked at the Hero-in-training nervously before trying to regain his resolve. "Wade, this doesn't concern you. Just move aside!"

He tried going around him, but Wade wasn't having any of it. He grabbed David's suit with his right hand and shoved him back, making David trip onto the ground.

"Professor!" Sam exclaimed worriedly.

"Doesn't concern me, huh?" Wade asked, still glaring down at him. "Then who does it concern? My friends? Everyone at the party?! Everyone on this fucking island?! What about her?"

Wade pointed off to his right. David turned his head to where he was gesturing to. His eyes widened in horror when he saw his own daughter standing at the entrance of the vault.

"Melissa, no…" David whispered. Melissa stared at him with wide eyes filled with disbelief.

"Miss, what are you doing here?" Sam asked.

Melissa took a step forward. "Papa…what did Sam mean you planned it?"

David stared at her nervously, but didn't say anything.

"Don't tell me…that you were the one behind this."

Her father remained silent.

"It was all you? Just to steal something?" Melissa asked, unable to fully believe what she was seeing. However, her father's continuing silence was breaking down all hopes she had. "No…it can't be true!"

Unable to take it anymore, David closed his eyes and sighed. This wasn't supposed to happen. She wasn't supposed to know about any of this. Finally, he stood up and looked into his daughter's eyes.

"Yes, it is."

Melissa gasped in shock and despair. "No…" She whimpered, with her voice breaking down from this revelation.

Clenching his fists tightly, Wade turnly quickly and fired a webline at the briefcase Sam was holding. With a hard pull, he yanked it from the assistant's hands and caught it in his left one.

"Wait! Don't take it!" Sam pleaded.

"Give me one good reason not to," Wade growled in fury. "Now talk! Or I'll break whatever it's in here!"

"Please, just listen to us!" Sam pleaded. "The professor was only trying to get back what was stolen. That invention you're holding can amplify someone's Quirk."

Wade's eyes widened as he looked at the case. "Is that even possible?" He asked, confused.

"Yes!" Sam confirmed before he started to explain. "It's still being tested though. But unlike with drugs, this can magnify a person's Quirk without damaging a person's body or brain. But despite the potential of the device, our sponsor confiscated the prototype and the research data. Then they demanded that the project be abandoned. They worried that something like this would drastically alter our superhuman society, and lead to chaos. So governments from different nations put pressure on your father to end the project, Melissa. That's why we did this."

"It was to get my research back," David said, finally speaking. However, as he explained, the man looked at the ground in shame. "So we hired fake villains to come in and force us to take it back. We ordered them not to harm anyone, of course. And once we had it, we could continue our research in secret. So we waited for the day of the I-Expo, when the tower was closed, and during the reception when everyone would be in the same place at once. The villains would be acting like they've taken over the island while we were the ones really pulling the strings."

"Papa, I don't understand!" Melissa exclaimed, staring at her father with wide and horrified eyes as she and Wade listened to their story. The boy was also shakened. "There's something I'm missing, right? You'd never do this!"

"I'm so sorry." David said in shame.

Melissa shook her head. "This doesn't make any sense," She said, and Wade looked back at her. "The papa I knew wouldn't act like a villain! No matter what!"

Wade stared at her with pity and sympathy. Her face. He knew the face she was making. In more ways than one, he understood what Melissa was going through. The confusion. The anger. The despair of seeing the one person you looked up to your whole life turning into a villain. Wade and Melissa really were similar. They were both inspired by their father. And now, they both shared the experience of seeing their family fall to darkness.

Holding up the briefcase to his eye level, Wade frowned at it. "All this chaos…just so you can finish your little science experiment?" He asked with bitterness in his voice.

"It's more than that, Wade." David told him. "I did it for All Might."

Wade and Melissa's eyes widened.

"You two probably aren't aware of this, but his powers are disappearing."

Wade gasped, now understanding what was driving David to do all of this.

"However, if he uses this device, he can be his old self again. No–his abilities would be even stronger than they were before!" David said with resolve and hope in his tone and eyes "The Number 1 Hero, the Symbol of Peace, can get his strength and life back again! He can keep saving people, just as he always has!"

Wade could feel his heart sink. All of this was happening because All Might's powers were fading. He doesn't know that All Might passed One-for-All down to him.

"Wade, please let me give that device to All Might. There's no time to remake it! I don't care what punishment I get, I just need to save him!"

"They risked their lives." Melissa said, gaining everyone's attention. Angrily she ripped the webbing off her arm to show David the cut Swordkill gave her. "Wade and his friends went through so much! Do you know how dangerous this was!? HOW MUCH WE WERE TRYING TO SAVE EVERYONE ON THE ISLAND!?"

David looked at his daughter with a confused expression. How did she get that cut? Was it one of the villains he and Sam hired? No, that couldn't be. "No, what do you mean?" He asked, before looking at Sam, who looked away from him. "...The villains…are fake."

"If that's the case, then call them off!" Wade demanded.

"I'm afraid I can't do that."

Wade's sense went off, but he wasn't able to act quickly enough when a piece of metal railing shot towards him. It wrapped around him and sent him off his feet. Slamming Wade into the wall.

The briefcase was thrown into the air, causing the professor and his assistant to run for it. Luckily, David caught it before it could land on the ground.

"WADE!" Melissa cried out in worry.

Wade struggled to break free when he saw who attacked him. It was Wolfram and a silver haired villain next to him. The boss villain smirked evilly at Wade with his arm held out to the side and with his hand glowing. Meaning that his Quirk allowed him to manipulate metal.

"Wolfram, what are you doing?!" David shouted at the villain. "This wasn't supposed to be part of the act."

"But it is part of the act," Wolfram said, walking towards him and Sam. "The act of pretending we weren't criminals."

David's eyes widened. "You mean…"

The very real villain looked at the scientist's assistance. "Sam, hand it over," He ordered.

Without hesitation, Sam snatched the briefcase from David. "Right! Here you go!" He said, walking towards Wolfram with the case.

"Sam…" David said in shock. Now seeing that he was tricked all along, he glared at the man he used to trust. "This was your plan? You were gonna hand it over all along?!"

"You're the one who tricked me, professor!" Sam yelled, looking back at David as he clenched the case to his chest. "I've been your assistant for all these years, and you let them take our work! We could have had fame and fortune, but no! I deserve more! I need to be rewarded…otherwise my career was a complete waste of time!"

David couldn't believe what he was hearing from Sam. All this time, all the trust that he had in Sam, was all so he could stab him in the back over being famous? Was their friendship ever real to begin with, or was Sam only with him for the fame and glory?

"Here's the pay you were promised." Wolfram said, pulling out a pistol before shooting Sam in the shoulder. Wade, David, and Melissa gasped as the assistant fell to the ground.

"Sam!" Melissa gasped, covering her mouth in horror.

"No, why?" Sam asked, holding his shoulder in pain as blood stained his suit. "This isn't part of the plan!"

"Is it not?" Wolfram asked with a sadistic grin. "That's strange. Because it was always a part of mine."

He fired again at Sam. However, in a split second, David jumped in front of the bullet. Taking the bullet in the shoulder before falling to the ground. Melissa gasped in horror.

"Professor…why…?" Sam asked.

Writhing in pain, David grunted out, "Get…out of…here."

"PAPA!" Melissa screamed as she ran towards her father.

"Stay back!" David yelled, but it was too late. Wolfram stopped her and struck her in the face with his pistol. Knocking her to the ground. "Melissa!"

Seeing this, Wade felt his blood start to boil with anger. Activating Battle Focus, he started fighting against the metal that bonded his body. Trying to break free to stop Wolfram.

The villain walked over to David and stepped on his back. Directly where he shot him. "Trying to play the Hero after all this? Too late for that. No matter what your reasons were, you've dirtied your hands now. Whether we're real villains or not doesn't matter. You planned and committed an actual crime here." Wolfram said to the world renowned scientist with a grin, making sure that every word he said sinked into David's heart and brought him ever deeper into despair. "You're exactly the same as we are. You could never remain a respected scientist, or continue your research with shame. You've fallen into the darkness of villainy."

Wade's anger continued to surge as his chest started to glow from the electricity building up inside of him.

Wolfram picked up the professor and looked into his face. "And if you want a future at all, you'll be a good scientist, and mass-produce this so I can sell it." He then knocked out David with that blow to the back of his neck. Wolfram then turned to his subordinate. "Take him to the roof."

"No!" Melissa pleaded as her tears fell onto the floor, gaining Wolfram's attention. "Give him back, please!"

"That reminds me." Wolfram smirked and pointed his pistol at the young woman. "This will be so much easier if I get rid of the professor's attachments."

"DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!" Wade shouted, before releasing all the electricity he stockpiled in one giant blast. Damaging the electricity inside the room and ripping the metal off his body. The stockwave knocked everyone off their feet.

Now free, Wade launched himself towards Wolfram. While on his back, the villain acted quickly and slammed his hand on the ground. Summoning a wall from the ground. Wade punched the wall, creating a large crater in it. However, he wasn't able to break through.

Turning to Melissa, Wade yelled, "Melissa! I've got the professor and Sam!" The young woman's eyes widened at that statement. Before she could reply, Wade continued. "Get into the security room! Save everyone on the island! GO!"

Melissa stared at Wade for a moment, before nodding. With a look of determination, she got off the floor and ran towards the exit.

"Don't let her escape!" Wolfram yelled.

"Right!" His lackey said as he ran after her.

Wade was about to stop the villain with his web-shooter when Wolfram cut him off with several metal barriers. Wade growled in frustration, before turning around and jumped towards a wall on the far side of the room. When he landed on the wall, he used it as a launching pad to send himself flying to the other side of the room, before dropping down in front of the villain as Melissa ran out of the room.

"You're not touching her!" Wade yelled. However, his senses alarmed him. He looked to his right to see a metal pillar coming at him. Wade jumped out of the way.

"Don't get too cocky, kid!" Wolfram yelled, before conjuring more pillars to send at Wade. Wade dodged each attack that was sent at him. Determined to save everyone on the island.

That determination was what powered Melissa as she ran down the hallway towards the control room. When she entered the room she immediately jumped into the chair and started typing on the computer. In the matter of a few seconds, she returned the security system back to normal.

Back inside the vault, Wade wasn't able to dodge one of the pillars. Allowing Wolfram to slam him into the wall. The villain grinned and slammed more pillars at Wade, almost burying him. However, he stopped when the entire room made a sound, like it was powering down.

"She's got control of the security system!"


It wasn't just the vault. The doors of the tower opened and the drones powered down, much to the relief of Wade's classmates. All over the island, the security system was returned to normal, with the drones returning back to where they came from.

With the island working in normal mode, the Heroes at the reception party were freed. The restrates that tied them down broke off, much to the shock of the villains that were guarding them.

"What's happening!?" One of them yelled, before he and his partner were taken out by the Heroes.

The civilians and scientists cheered as All Might stood back up with a slight couch. Even though there was some steam coming off his shoulders, he was still able to keep up his form. Knowing that Wade and the young Heroes had made it, All Might ran out of the room to get to the top of the tower.


Things were not going as Wolfram intended. But it's because of the kids that a wrench was thrown into everything. However, he has what he came for.

Binding David's hands together with a piece of metal, Wolfram picked him up and placed him on his shoulder. "Is it here?" He asked his lackey.

"Just landed," Said the villain.

"We're leaving!" Wolfram said, and the two of them walked out of the vault.

Still under the pillars that were pinning him to the wall, Wade used his power to destroy them. Sticking to the wall, Wade panting a bit. He looked around, but saw that Wolfram, his subordinate, and the professor were gone.

Jumping down from the wall, Wade ran over to Sam, who was still on the ground. He sprayed his bullet wound to stop the bleeding. "Where did they go?" He asked.

"They took the professor." Sam grunted with tears flowing down his face. He pointed to the door. With a look of shame, he stared up at Wade with pleading eyes. "Please…save him…"

The young man looked at him with a determined expression and nodded. "I will," He said, before running out of the vault. Wade had to rescue David. If he didn't then why was he even here? Wade may not be a hero, but he will do whatever it takes.


All Might was on his way up the tower. He was running through one of the hallways when his phone started ringing. Stopping, the Hero saw it was Melissa calling him and immediately answered. "Melissa, what's happened?"

"Oh thank goodness! Papa's been taken by the villains, Uncle Might! Wade's going after them!"

The steam stopped as All Might said with determination, "Don't worry. I'm going to stop them!"


At the circular roof of the tower was a single Blackhawk helicopter. One of the Wolfram's remaining men was standing guard when he saw his boss and the other lackey walking towards him.

"Where's everyone else?" He asked.

"We're going before the security system's back online," Wolfram told both of his subordinates.

"Yes sir!" Both men ran to the copter.

"Kill me…" David grunted in a weak voice, still still losing blood as he was carried by the villain. "Just do it."

"I'll add a few more sins to your heart," Wolfram said with a grin as he carried both the professor and the case with the Quirk amplifier. "And then I'll grant you your wish."

The engine of the helicopter roared to life and the rotors started spinning around. Wolfram threw David onto the floor of the copter and set the briefcase down.

"Hold it!"

Wolfram turned around and saw Wade standing inside the open elevator.

"Give back the professor!" Wade shouted.

David opened his eyes and gasped when he saw Wade.

"I wonder…" said Wolfram with a smuggle smirk and walked towards Wade. "Did you come to bring this man to pay for his crimes?"

"No. I've come here to save David Shield and kick ass!" Wade yelled as he charged towards the villain.

"Even though he's a criminal!?" Wolfram slammed his hand on the ground. He used his Quirk to send a metal column at him.

"You watch!" Wade yelled as he jumped over the column. More were sent his way, and Wade dodged in the air. Jumping from one to another, while also making sure he wasn't it. "I'm going to save everyone!"

"You can't even save yourself, kid!" Wolfram yelled, sending more pillars of metal at Wade to kill him.

"Shut up, you bastard!" Wade shouted. Dodging more of the tentacles as he activated Battle Focus. "This is what a Hero does! They help those in trouble!"

"How exactly?" Wolfram aimed his gun at David. Wade gasped when he saw this.

"Save yourself!" David pleaded in a raspy voice. "Run away!"

Wade landed on the ground. His fists clenched in frustration as he glared at Wolfram.

"Jeez. Being a Hero seems really inconvenient, huh?" Wolfram boasted. "I didn't use much of my power, yet you're completely helpless."

Wolfram summoned a metal block and sent it flying at Wade. Ramming it into him and sending Wade rolling across the roof before coming to a stop.

He groaned in pain for a moment, before his senses alarmed him again. He narrowly avoided another block, before jumping out of the way of another. However, he was hit by a pillar from below. It arched and crushed him in between another pillar. A third pillar was formed from underneath and rocketed up, crashing into Wade and sending him flying up into the air.

The spider-man spat out blood, but his body was able to take the punishment.

"Doesn't sound like a smart way to live." Said Wolfram as Wade dropped to the floor. With the kid having been dealt with, the villain boarded the helicopter. "Take off!"

"Roger!"

The helicopter's rotors started spinning much faster as it lifted off the ground and flew into the air. Seeing this, Wade gritted his teeth and kickupped back onto his feet. Then he ran towards the helicopter. If Wolfram is on it, then he shouldn't be able to use his Quirk with how little there is.

Running up one of the pillars, Wade jumped as high as he could and fired a webline at the helicopter. It stuck onto the edge of it and Wade pulled hard, making the pilot stumble and the aircraft shake. Looking over the edge, David's eyes widened in shock and amazement when he saw Wade.

Just then, Melissa arrived on the rooftop. She looked up and gasped when she saw Wade hanging from the helicopter. "Wade!"

Wade climbed up the web-line and crawled into the copter. Seeing Wolfram, he fired at him with his web-shooter, covering him in a web and sticking him to the wall.

"Don't worry! I'm getting you out of here!" Wade said, going to him and using his webs to cover his bullet wound.

"Wade, stop. Get away!" David pleaded.

"What about Melissa!" Wade yelled. "She's waiting for you! Are you really going to just abandon her?!"

David gasped in realization. He never once thought about how his actions would have affected his daughter.

"I have to admit, you certainly act like a Hero," Wolfram said, ripping off some of the webbing before pointing his gun at Wade. "But you're a fool!"

Before he could shoot Wade, David suddenly rammed into Wolfram. However, the gun still fired. Wade deflected the bullet with the Full Gauntlet, but fell out of the helicopter.

Melissa screamed as Wade tried to shoot another web-line at the helicopter. However, to his horror, the shooter was out of webs. Wade yelled at himself in his head to not give up. But what could he do? The answer was nothing, as he crashed down onto the rooftop.

"Wade!" Melissa yelled as she ran towards the boy.

Wolfram threw David back against the wall, knocking him out. "Have a nice nap," He said tauntingly as David fell to the side onto the floor of the copter, with his blood staining the wall.

Watching the helicopter go higher into the sky, Wade groaned in pain as he laid in the crater he formed. "Damnit…!" He gasped, pulling himself out of the impression his body made.

"Wade are you alright?" Melissa worriedly asked as she ran over to him.

Wade sat up in pain as he yelled up at the helicopter in frustration and anger. Feeling he felt towards himself for not being the hero everyone needed and saving David. All the training he's gone through, all the trials and tribulations, and in the end he was still too weak to save anyone. "Give him back! Give the professor back! GODDAMMIT!"

"Never lose that smile, Young Walker!"

Wade gasped when he heard that voice.

All Might had arrived. Rocketing up the side of the tower at speeds faster than sound as he flew past the helicopter. Using his power, he stopped himself in midair and looked down at everyone. The villains in the cockpit of the copter were extremely nervous, while Wolfram glared up at the Hero.

"It's fine now. And do you know why?" All Might asked, before pointing to himself. "Because I am here!"

Wade and Melissa gasped and smiled in relief. "All Might's really here," He said. "He's free!"

"I'll make you give back my friend, fiend!" All Might exclaimed, turning himself into a human missile as he punched straight through the chopper. Grabbing David as he went through. The vehicle exploded into a ball of fire that shone brightly in the night sky.

All Might landed on the roof near Melissa and Wade, with David in his arms. The helicopter fell and crashed onto the rooftop in a massive explosion. "Papa!" Melissa exclaimed as she ran to him.

"Me…Melissa…" David gasped, returning back to consciousness as he reached out to her. The binding on his hands breaking away.

"Everything will be ok now," All Might stated.

Wade sighed in relief and sat down. "It's all over…" He said in relief.

But it wasn't.

Out of nowhere, a large block of metal hit All Might, sending him tumbling across the rooftop, much to the shock of everyone.

"All Might!" Wade yelled.

The ground started to tear itself up as wires and metallic cables emerged from everywhere on the rooftop. Some of the metal wires wrapped around David and he was picked up and pulled towards what could only be described as a large mass of metal.

"Papa!" Melissa screamed, trying to reach him with no avail.

Wade then yelled, "What the hell is that thing!?"

David struggled to break free, but it was no use. He was tightly wrapped around the wiring and cable while yelling in pain.

"I heard what Sam said. All Might's Quirk is failing him. He doesn't have the same unstoppable power he once did!" Said none other than Wolfram. Revealing himself from the mass of metal with the Quirk Amplifier on his head. The veins on his forehead were popping, and his voice was much deeper and darker than before.

"He's using the device!" Wade exclaimed, his eyes widened in horror. Witnessing as Wolfram's power skyrocketed.

All Might couched into his fist as he stood up back. His body emitted smoke as he looked at his hand, and saw blood on it. He was running out of time. Knowing he had to finish this fight quickly, All Might looked towards Wolfram.

"You really don't know when to give up, do you?" He dashed towards the villain. "Texas…"

Wolfram ginned and waved his arm out. Sending a block wall to shield himself against the Symbol of Peace's attack.

"SMASH!"

All Might punched the wall, however, to his shock, it didn't do anything. Wade saw this and knew that he was in trouble.

"Is that all you got?!" Wolfram smirked in amusement. Using his powers, he hit All Might in the chest with a pillar formed from the wall.

However, the longer he wore the headset, the more Wolfram's power increased. There was a massive explosion from the destroyed helicopter, causing pieces of the rooftop to fall off. The villain's power spread and the top of the tower started to rip itself apart, and debris floated up into the air, before collecting itself under Wolfram. Wade watched in horror as Wolfram grew even more powerful and formed a cobbled-together tower.

"This…this is what…" Wade whispered, but was unable to finish his sentence, due to shock.

"David Shield's genius lives up to its reputation!" Wolfram bellowed as his eyes turned black and his pupils started glowing purple. His power was only getting stronger and stronger "I can tell my Quirk is reaching its potential. It feels amazing! I'm never taking it off!"

Struggling to stand up, All Might glared up at the tower Wolfram created for himself. "Dave, what in the world did you make?"

"I never knew he created something so powerful." Melissa said in horror.

Wolfram laughed evilly at the top of the tower. "Now, I think I know how to raise the price of this device. I can charge whatever I want if it can kill the Number 1 Hero!"

He sent metal pillars at All Might as if they were tentacles of an octopus. However, All Might narrowly dodged each of the attacks. He then turned and faced the next pillar head on! Punching it after jumping at the metal pillar. However, it pushed him back onto the ground. The force of counterattack caused a large tremor that shook the rooftop.

Melissa screamed as she sent up into the air when the floor she was standing on flipped up. Wade managed to catch her in his arms.

"Don't worry, I got you!" Wade yelled, landing on the ground. However, when he looked back, he saw All Might struggling to push back against the pillar as he coughed up a large amount of blood. Wade knew that All Might was reaching his limit, and fast.

Wolfram snickered as he waved his hand around, firing more metal pillars towards All Might. Putting even more strain on the Hero. But still, All Might held out.

"Why wouldn't you just die already!" The villain yelled and sent forth even more blocks, intent on killing the greatest Hero in the world once and for all.

"All Might!" Wade yelled, setting Melissa down and rushed in to help his teacher.

However, just before he could jump in, a blast of cold air turned the blocks of metal into ice.

"Huh?!" Wolfram looked up with gritting teeth.

"GO TO HELL!" Out of nowhere, Bakugo jumped in from the sky and started blasting an abundant amount of explosions at Wolfram. The villain formed a wall to protect himself from the blasts.

Wade's eyes widened as he stared up at Bakugo, before grinning. "About time, jackass."

Bakugo stopped his attack when his right wrist started to throb in pain. "How could you let yourself be beaten by such a lame boss? Huh?! All Might!"

"Thank you, young Bakugo," All Might said as he gritted his teeth.

"We'll do what we can." Shoto said, with the left side of his shirt burnt away. The rest of Wade's classmates made it to the battlefield. "We'll help you!"

"Guys! You're here!" Wade exclaimed a relieved smile.

"Let's take out these lumps of metal, Iida!" Kirishima said as he activated his Hardening Quirk.

"Yaoyorozu, take care of things here!" Iida ordered as he and Kirishima rushed into the fray.

"Right!" Momo said as she summoned a rocket launcher.

Seeing his friends getting into the action, Wade turned to Melissa. "Stay here!" He told her, before jumping into the fray himself. Jumping up into the air and destroying one of the floating blocks of metal.

The students did their best to take care of the metal obstacles and clear the way for All Might. All Might smiled at the determination his students showed. Seeing all of his students so motivated to help him, the Hero realized that he couldn't be held back by a limit. So it was time for him to go past that limit and go beyond!

All Might punched through the metal blocks in front of him and flew towards Wolfram with his newfound resolve. "It's time to go PLUS ULTRA!"

The pillars that were frozen broke out of their icy prison and launched at All Might. The Hero smashed through them all as he made his way to Wolfram. Seeing the villain straight ahead, All Might prepared to attack.

"Carolina…SMASH!"

All Might's powerful attack lit up the whole area. Wade and the others stopped destroying the obstacles and looked up at All Might, covering their eyes due to the brightness. With nothing to stand in his way, the Number 1 Hero was ready to deliver the final blow.

"Prepare yourself, villain!" He yelled and prepared to land a punch.

But before he could get to Wolfram, the villain caught him. Using his power, he entangled All Might's arms and legs with strong metallic cables.

"Nice try." All Might gritted his teeth. "Is that all you got–?"

Wolfram grabbed the Symbol of Peace by the neck. The villain's arm suddenly bulged out of nowhere as his sleeves were torn.

"Prepare myself?" Wolfram's skin started glowing a reddish hue. His power increased by the minute as he sneered at All Might. "You should take your own advice. You've underestimated me."

As the pressure on All Might's neck increased, the Hero coughed up blood. Just where was this power coming from? He didn't have time to ponder on this thought when Wolfram placed his hand where All Might's injury was. Then, he jammed his fingers into it

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"ALL MIGHT!" Wade yelled as he jumped into the air to try and help his mentor. However, just then, he yelled in pain. Out of nowhere, his shoulder started to throb in pain.

Melissa gasped as Wade fell down to the ground and ran to him. "Wade! Are you alright?!"

All Might gritted his teeth in pain as he glared at Wolfram. The villain grinned a sinister smile and continued to strangle him. The power enhancing device has increased his muscles. Meaning that there were multiple Quirks inside of Wolfram.

That thought made All Might's eyes widened, as the horrible realization kicked in. "No, it couldn't be."

"Oh, yes," Wolfram said with a grin. "When we were planning this little plot, I received an intriguing phone call from the man himself. He said he wanted to work with me. To help. When I asked him why he bothered, he had this to say:"

"If All Might's friend wants to have a hand in something evil, I'll be happy to assist in his fall from grace in any way that I can. My only regret is that I will not be able to see All Might's face twist in pain when he finds out the truth about the professor."

And just like that, the real main villain of the heist was revealed.

"ALL FOR ONE IS BEHIND THIS!?" All Might yelled, rage and anger filling his soul upon realizing that his arch nemesis was the true mastermind behind this entire operation.

"What's the matter?" Wolfram snarled with an evil smirk. Taking great pleasure in seeing the Symbol of Peace's reaction. "Looks like you finally stopped smiling."

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!" All Might roared in fury as he struggled to break free of the cables. However, Wolfram laughed as he sent a pillar of metal into All Might's chest. Sending him back, while still in the hold of the cables.

The Hero struggled to break free again, and once again, Wolfram didn't give him the chance. He sent two large cube blocks at All Might, crushing him in between them.

Wade's eyes widened in horror as more and more metal blocks moved and crushed All Might.

"All Might, no!" Momo, Mineta, Ochaco, and Jiro yelled as they saw their teacher being pulverized by the overpowered villain.

"Please, don't do this…" Melissa gasped as she saw her uncle-figure being crushed and beaten.

"Farewell, SYMBOL OF PEACE!" Wolfram yelled as he summoned metal spikes to poncher through the cubes.

"Oh no you don't!"

However, just before Wolfram could kill All Might, Wade appeared in a flash of green light before the cube. With Battle Focus activated at 40%, Wade punched the cube with all his strength. Obliterating the cubes into a thousand pieces. His body was able to avoid the spikes by just inches, before he and All Might fell towards the ground. As he fell, Wade's body was slammed against some of the debris, before landing hard.

As smoke covered the area, Wolfram looked around with an annoyed snarl. "That damn brat!"

On the ground, All Might protected Wade from a piece of falling debris. Pushing it off to the side, the Hero looked down at his successor with worry. Wade was laying on the ground, so All Might knelt down to him.

"Young Walker, your body can't handle this. Take your classmates and get outta here," All Might ordered his pupil.

"Like hell I can't!" Wade grunted as he tried getting on his hands and knees. "I can take it!"

"You're being reckless!"

"Yeah. That's what I'm all about," Wade joked as he looked up at All Might There was a streak of blood running down the left side of his head. But the bleeding and the pain he felt, Wade grinned up at his idol. "If saving those in trouble means being reckless, then I'll gladly be reckless. Because that's what you do when you're a Hero, right?"

All Might looked at his successor for a moment before smiling widely and chuckling. "You never change, do you Wade? But it looks like the only way to stop him will be to do it together," All Might said, before holding out his hand to Wade. "What do you say…Spider-Man?"

Wade grinned after hearing his Hero name and grabbed All Might's hand. "I say…let's do it!" He exclaimed as the Hero pulled him up to his feet. They then turned to face Wolfram.

Looking at his right arm, Wade clenched his fist. He once again activated his Battle Focus. "I'm all charged up!" He said, as a small amount of electricity coursed through his body. However, knowing that he'll likely need it, he ejected the empty capsule from his web-shooter and loaded a new one.

"Let's go!" All Might exclaimed, and together, the teacher and student duo took off towards the Wolfram.

Wolfram scowled at them. "There's no way you can stop me. You're nothing more than insignificant pests that don't know when to lie down and be crushed!" He yelled, forming new metal cubes and sending them at Wade and All Might.

"You're the one, who doesn't know when he's beat!" Bakugo yelled. Ignoring the throbbing pain in his wrists, he blasted the cubes.

Wade and All Might ran side by side as they saw the metal pillars rush towards them. Intent on killing them.

"I won't let you stop them!" Todoroki shouted as he formed an iceberg in front of the pillars. Stopping them from crushing Wade and All Might.

With their path clear, Wade and All Might jumped towards Wolfram.

"This is over!" He yelled, before unleashing hell on the rooftop, sending pillars and debris all around the top of the tower. This attack would send the other students flying back and Melissa to tumble on the destroyed floor. Sitting back up, she watched as what was to be the final minutes of the battle took place.

Running at incredible speeds, All Might looked up and saw several pillars coming down at him. He punched one, leapt across the ground and slid across it before punching another. Destroying it in thousands of fragments.

With his senses going off like a shotgun, Wade easily dodged one pillar and continued running. When another one came down at him, Wade jumped out of its way as it crashed into the ground. He called upon his power again, and just Battle Focus to send himself flying across the battlefield. Kicking one of the pillars and completely obliterating it.

Melissa looked up and saw All Might jump onto one of the pillars and start running up it. Wade shot a web-line at the same pillar and swung himself onto it. Using his speed he caught up to All Might.

Together, and ran in perfect sync with one another.

Growling in frustration, Wolfram roared and summoned more and more metal cubes into the sky.

On the ground, Ochaco and Jiro groaned as they stood up after being knocked over. However, the gravity girl looked up and was stunned to see all of the cubes that Wolfram made and all the debris that he was able to connect come together into one. Forming one giant cube. "What's happening!?"

Seeing this, Wade and All Might jumped at the clustering together. Together, they pulled back their arms and clenched their hands into fists. "To overcome the crisis in front of you…" All Might began, flexing his left arm.

"...with everything you've got…" Wade followed up as he powered up his right arm.

"...and save people…"

"...no matter the cost!"

"Because with great power…"

"...there must come great responsibility!"

"I'LL BRING DOWN THIS ENTIRE TOWER!" Wolfram yelled, throwing his arms forward and sending the cube flying at Wade and All Might with all the power he had.

"Double Detroit…" Wade and All Might chanted as they put all of their power together into one attack. Their fist glowing a bright white light. "...SSSSMAAAAAASSHHHH!"

Together, they punched the cube, causing a large shockwave to ripple throughout the tower. Blood spilled through All Might's gritting teeth as he put more and more power into the punch. Wade gritted his teeth as he did the same, unknowingly causing the Full Gauntlet to crack under the extreme force and power.

Wolfram tried his best to push back against the teacher and student. However, it wasn't enough. He was pushed back due to the overwhelming strength of the two. As cracks formed all over the cube, it then exploded in a massive burst of light.

With nothing standing between them and the villain, Wade and All Might flew towards Wolfram. David was still trapped inside the villain's tower while Melissa was on the ground. Together, they watched in awe at both teacher and student—mentor and successor.

"WADE!" Ochaco yelled at her crush at the top of her lungs.

"STOP HIM, ALL MIGHT!" Momo and Jiro screamed.

"GO, WADE!" Iida, Mineta, and Kirishima shouted.

"DESTROY THIS GUY!" Bakugo and Todoroki shouted together.

The stars of One-for-All started to align and connect at that moment. Condensing all of the power into one. Wade concentrated all that power into his fist as he quickly charged a Venom Smash. "Let's go…!"

"...Beyond!" All Might flexed his chest as he and Wade were engulfed in a bright aura of rainbow colors. They then flew towards Wolfram. Their bodies are as bright as a star as they prepare to finish the fight.

Wolfram quickly wrapped sheets of metal around his body in an attempt to save himself, but it wasn't to be. Wade and All Might's first were engulfed in a rainbow colored aura as they punched Wolfram with all their might. Wade yelled as the force of the punch was so strong that it completely tore and broke the Full Gauntlet.

Wolfram screamed in agony, as a massive explosion of light destroyed his tower. Creating a shockwave that could be felt all over the island.

David was freed from his prison as all the metal broke away. He opened his eyes. For a brief moment, he thought that he was looking up at All Might in his younger years. However, when his senses came back to him, he realized that it was Wade, who was up in the air with his fist pointed towards the heavens. Grinning triumphantly.

The scientist's eyes widened. Now he realized what All Might saw in Wade.

All Might caught his best friend and landed safely on the ground. Wade also landed on the pile of debris, as smaller pieces crashed all around him. He looked around and saw Wolfram hanging on a piece of junk, completely knocked out.

Panting from exhaustion, Wade's lips grew into a smile. "We did it. We won!" He said, clenching his fists, before throwing them into the air. "YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

Hearing him yelling, the others realized that Wade and All Might had beat Wolfram. The day was saved, and they all started to cheer. Happy that their friend and teacher was safe and that the villains were defeated in such a spectacular display of power.

As the sun started to shine over the horizon, Melissa ran to where Wade was standing. "Wade!" She exclaimed as she ran up to the Spider Hero.

Wade turned and smiled when he saw her coming towards him. "Melissa!" He exclaimed, before she collided with him. Wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug.

"Oh Wade, I'm so happy you're alright!" She said, almost crying in joy.

Meanwhile, All Might placed David on the ground. Leaning his body against some of the debris. "Dave. Dave!" He said, trying to wake up his old friend.

David opened his eyes. He saw All Might as he body started to deflate into his weakened state. One of his bangs was dropping down and a large amount of smoke was coming out of his body.

"All Might," David said weakly.

All Might smiled at his best friend. "I've come to save you, old pal."

"Thank you…"

"Papa!"

"All Might!"

The two adults turned their heads to see Wade and Melissa calling down to them at the top of the hill and waved at them. "If you want to thank someone, you should thank Melissa and Young Walker," All Might said.

Seeing that her father was still alive, Melissa started to sob into her hands. "He's okay…I can't believe it…" She said, wiping her tears away. The blonde girl then turned to Wade. "Thank you, Wade. Thanks to all of you, we were able to say the island."

Wade smiled at his friend. "It was thanks to you too, Melissa," He said, causing her to look at him with confusion. He looked at his hand, which was now bare after destroying the gauntlet. "If it weren't for your gauntlet, I wouldn't have been able to take down the villain. And then you got everything back to normal. You're a Hero in your own way, Melissa. Never forget that."

Melissa stared at Wade with wide eyes. "Wade…"

"Oh, and sorry about the gauntlet." Wade said apologetically as he looked at his hand. "I guess all that power finally got…"

He stopped when he felt something on his cheek.

Melissa had reached towards Wade and planted a small kiss on his cheek. Wade's eyes widened to their maximum and he stared at her in shock. She pulled away and smiled happily at him.

"Thank you, Wade."

While still a little embarrassed and blushing heavily, Wade smiled and nodded.

"WADE! MELISSA!"

Wade turned around to see his friends and classmates cheering up at him and All Might's victory. With the exception of Shoto, who smiled up at him, and Bakugo, who looked away.

"Are you two okay?!" Iida yelled.

"We're fine up here!" Wade yelled back at him and the others. "All Might and the professor are okay too!"

"What about you guys?!" Melissa shouted.

"We're fine!" Ochaco replied.

"Alive, anyway!" Iida added.

"I've heard most of what happened from Melissa." All Might said, bandaging the web-covered wound the scientist had. Luckily Wade was able to stop the bleeding.

Ashamed of what he's done, David looked away. "It's all true…" He said, looking up at the dawn sky as a single star shined brightly. "I was so scared you'd lose your light. Scared that the peace you've built as a Hero would fade away from you. But my ideas and that device were nothing more than a way to maintain the status quo."

He tried to stand up, so All Might helped him up. David then looked up at Wade and Melissa, and he smiled. "And to think, all this time, the future was standing right in front of me. I just didn't notice it… Look at those two. She wants to become my successor some day, you know that. And then there's Wade Walker, the boy with power from another dimension…he'll be your successor, won't he?"

All Might nodded as he looked up at the boy that would come Spider-Man. "Wade still has a long way to go. However, in that boy shines a new bright light. The light to become the greatest Hero this world would ever see… and when that day comes for him to take my place, the world will know the name Spider-Man."

David smiled and looked up at Wade. The young man turned around when he noticed the sun shining behind him. As it rose over the horizon, Wade smiled. A light just like All Might's, huh? Yes.

Wade Walker has the heart of a Hero.

Peace was restored on the island, allowing for Wade and his friends, including All Might and Melissa, to enjoy their summer vacation together. Everyone from Class 1-A was able to come out and enjoy what the island had, and new fun memories were made.

David Shield's action, however, wouldn't go unpunished. After he recovers in the hospital, he would be taken into custody and stand trial for his planning in the heist. The professor had no objections to this. Melissa would visit him in the hospital, and forgive him for all that he's done.

Soon, the summer came to an end, and the students would have to return to Japan. There, more battles for the soul of their superhuman society would be fought, and they would be on the frontlines.

The I-Island incident will be known all over the world, and will catch the imagination of the people for years to come. Villains capturing Heroes and a group of kids saving them? Who would believe it? But those that were there did know. The future is still to be written, and its road will be difficult, but Wade and his friends are more than ready. His light, and those of the others, shine as a beacon of hope for the next generation.

On that night, when the darkness of evil fell over I-Island, the world witnessed something incredible. A new light of hope.

The light will soon lead to the Rise of the Heroes of Tomorrow.
