My Hero Academia: Yashiro The First Quirk
Ch.38- Hero Killer
I kicked the man and looked down to see Iida and another hero on the ground not moving. Hitting an emergency button in the class chat I got into a stance. I just need to stall, I look at the man, his look was eerie, so this was the hero killer. I will not run; I need to save both of them.
"I will save them." I declared; the man tongue hung out.
"Deku!" a voice called, I looked up to see a golden cloud and Yashiro dove down an armour set forming on her as she landed between me and the hero killer. "Get those two as far as you can.
"Yashiro-chan that's…" I began, she took a stance.
"Hero killer Stain, I have a tracker and some senpai's are on the way. I can hold him off but you need to get them to safety." She stated, He lunged at her but she was able to parry him with her armour. "Deku do it now."
I nodded and as I went to turn, I felt a pain in my arm, in a second, I lost all my strength and fell forward. I can't move, why can't I move? No, I need to move and help Yahsiro and the other's but I can't move.
"You're crafty, well I am not letting you hurt any of them." Yashiro hissed, she sounded just as mad as when she yelled at All Might.
(Yashiro's POV)
Great he had a knife on a chain, he was crafter than I first thought, but all I need to do is keep his attention on me. I lowered the arm to become arm and leg guards and summoned power pole. He lunged and I blocked the blade and sent power pole into his abdomen and extended it. He was flung back as I quickly tore the blade away from him, tossing it behind me making sure to not hit anyone.
"I know what you do, and what your quirk is, and I know for a fact reasoning with you is not gonna help. But I need to vent. You see I have a problem with your methods, I get it the hero system is flawed. People become heroes for the wrong reasons, but not everyone. Trying to fix it like this is just wanting to justify your thirst for violence." I began and he raced forward and I grabbed the blade and kicked him in the balls. "I would love to hear what makes you think you can play god? What makes you better then everyone else?"
"Heh, you're quite the kid." He muttered, I tugged away the blade and kicked him into the wall. "So, you're here to save them?"
"Yes, and stop you, sorry to tell you but I can't let you continue what you're doing. If I can't save people from being hurt what kind of hero would I be?" I snarled and he lunged forward with a new blade I dodged but felt wind at my side.
"I won't kill you or your green friend." He stated as he pulled back and licked the blade.
"Missed," I stated and shot forward and headbutted him sending him stumbling back. "Baggy hoodie, also I have police-grade Kevlar under this."
"Who are you?" he asked.
"A hero," I stated I went to roundhouse kick him but he blocked it with a blade.
I summoned armour as he tried to jab at me, quickly I slapped my armoured elbow into the sword. It broke in half and I spun to kick him but he jumped back. It was clear he was good at close quarters combat but I expected this. I was glad I worked on my stamina. Still, I need to wrap this up sooner than later.
"You are a real hero, good to see." He commented, I snarled.
"Stop acting like you know everything!" I snapped lunging at him. "How do you know if they're heroes!"
"A true hero will risk themselves to save others and ask nothing in return. They will always work to protect others, just like All Might!" he explained, as he kicked me toward the wall.
"Leave Uncle Might out of this, leave him out of your sick plot!" I screamed racing forward I landed a punch to his gut.
"Uncle Might…" he stated as he stumbled back.
"Uncle is human just like anyone it would hurt him so much to see people like you twist his image. Uncle is a hero because he wants to save people and make people feel safe. That's what it means to be the Symbol of Peace!" I yelled; Uncle only wanted to make the world a safer place but he was human too…
"You must be some pro-heroes brat." He muttered and launched at me.
"So what if I am!" I huffed as I dodged his blade. "I'm the daughter of two amazing heroes. My Dad's are heroes and their friends are like my family. They gave me so much when I lost everything!"
I punched at him but I barely was missing his attacks now, I jumped back and summoned the sealing wand. I need to stay back close quarters is practically suicide. I can't be hit by his quirk if I am, he will go back to killing. I need to calm down he's just riling me up, I need to focus on stopping him.
"You almost lost your way there like that first kid." He commented I ground my teeth.
"That's my friend and you nearly killed his big brother, his idol… I know that feeling, I know why he wanted to end you. Maybe if he got rid of you his big brother would be back to normal. But things will never be back like before… Still, he's gonna be a great hero and protect people! He's been there for me too! People change!" I cried, he scoffed I lunged at him.
"People can't change who they are…" he stated as he dodged and used his elbow to slam me into the ground. "You're being naïve."
"Yashiro!" Izuku screamed, I felt wind above me.
Getting up I saw he hand kicked the villain away from me, it wore off for him… Looking I saw the others still unable to move, was it the amount, had the amount been too small? Getting up I looked to see Iida had tears building in his eyes. I smiled at him and turned back to see Izuku fighting him off being able to dodge better than me.
"Iida after this is over, we need to talk," I stated, and summoned windy. "Izu-chan jump!"
He jumped up and I activated Windy sending the villain quickly into the wall with a strong gust. All we needed to do was knock him out, I stopped Windy as Izu landed making sure he wasn't hurt. He jumped back to my side as I felt my chest begin to tighten. I was getting worked up, my outburst was too much wasn't it…
"Yashiro what do we do?" Izuku asked.
"We have to knock him out, but if I use watery, I might accidentally drown him," I stated, he nodded. "Izu, we can't let him get to them."
"Right, what about the wood you used in training?" he asked, I looked at the glint of his sword.
"I'll try but he might be able to cut through," I admitted, he nodded as I summoned woody and sent it to ensnare him.
He jumped and was quick to slice at the wood cleanly cutting it but at least I had him on the defence. Still, he fought close quarters he must have good stamina. So, I can't just try to exhaust him plus too much magic will drain me. Once I got him to the end of the alley, I stopped woody.
"Yashiro?" Izuku asked, I summoned the power pole.
"I can't use much more magic moves, it's too draining…" I admitted, he nodded. "Let's team up in close range, it's risky but it may work."
"Let's do it." He chimed, I nodded and summoned Nimbus.
"Try to not bleed," I stated, he nodded and I saw him cut the last branch in his way to us.
Launching forward I used Nimbus to quickly zip around him and smacked him hard with the power pole. Izuku came and punched him toward the wall. I extended Nimbus at him but he rolled to avoid it. Quickly I swung it at him but he was able to grab the pole he went to cut it but it seemed safe. Power-pole was pretty much indestructible, so I guess even blades had little effect.
Izuku launched and he let go of the pole to role under his high kick but Izuku used the wall to turn and punch him into the ground. It was amazing the power he had now, but I know this was only a small glimpse. Uncle could practically disappear he moved so fast. I guess Uncle old mentor was a better teacher than him.
I saw Izuku go limp again, I dove down and slammed into the villain knocking him away from Izuku. I had to protect him till the quirk wore off again. Zooming up I held the pole and swooped down at him smashing him in the chest with a hard swing. I heard it the crack of bones breaking I felt myself pale.
Dad… Dad was there being held down by that thing, the ground was covered in blood. And I was too far away to stop it, but I had to… Or else…
I felt pain and I was knocked off Nimbus, hitting the concrete I looked at the villain who looked like he had kicked. I shook my head as I got back up looking at him his right arm hanging limply as he put a blade into his mouth. Something changed though, that look, it was darker. I wanted to back up but I stood firm. I am sick of running away.
"Yashiro!" Iida yelled I saw him zoom past and use his special move the send the man into the brick hard.
"Iida!" I cried and raced over to see him in clear pain.
I looked to the man and I saw him stagger to get back I gripped my fist hard. Before I knew it, I was lunging at him and I punching him in the ribs then I heard a crack of bone. I looked to see his eyes roll back and finally, he passed out. I pulled my fist back realising I was breathing hard almost hyperventilating.
"We did it…" I stated in shock.
"Let's try him up," Izuku said, I turned to look at him.
"Yeah I have something like Dad's capture weapon," I said and we began to tie the villain up.
"Are you okay?" Izuku asked, I nodded I was just a bit faint just needed a breather.
"Yeah just need a small break," I answered, he nodded and we began to walk to the other side of the alley Izuku carrying the villain.
"I'm sorry you two…" Iida apologized we both turned to him as he hobbled behind us.
"From now on we all need to talk more, no more isolating, we do better as a team," I stated, he nodded and I smiled.
"Did you see the monsters?" he asked, I looked to Izuku confused. "One attacked the train I was on, it looked like that thing from USJ…"
I stopped, that thing… They were more of those, wait senpai's were meant to come to help me. Did they get attacked, were they…
I heard what sounded my a tridactyl scream I turned to see a monster dive and dig its claws into my shoulder. I cursed as it began to pull me up, I was holding onto its ankle. Looking up I saw that face; it was like that thing from USJ! That means, I spied around and I saw a pair of figures in the distance. I summoned power-pole and sent into the thing's face.
Its claws loosened and I began to fall, I saw Nimbus then I saw a little kid falling off a fire escape. No, I sent Nimbus to the kid, I saw Nimbus catch the kid and I hit the ground. I landed on my arms and I could hear a snap as bones broke. I bit my lip as I tried to get back up but my body screamed in protest. No, I need to save people from the…
(Izuku's POV)
I jumped and as I was just in sight, I saw her fall and Nimbus race to her thank god, then it flew past her. I stared as the cloud caught a kid, I dove to catch her but I heard it. I felt my stomach sink as she hit the ground with a scream and the sound of cracks. I landed by her and I saw her straining to get up. Then she collapsed, I began to gather her up in my arms. Her arms were twisted at two angles and her face was covered in blood.
"Yashiro-chan…" I stated, please Yashiro-chan wake up?!
(Hizashi's POV)
I was leaving my agency; I just had a meeting with my sidekicks. We had to go over some cases that we had taken on. We currently were after a group dealing in black market suppression gear. Not the best topic but we seemed to be hitting a lead. Hope we can be done with this soon. Stretching I heard my phone ring, I pulled it out, private number? I answered it and put it to my ear, I heard something in the background.
"Is this Hizashi Yamada?" a woman asked, I stopped.
"Yes," I answered.
"Your daughter has just been admitted to the Hosu Hospital Emergency Ward." She explained, I almost dropped my phone.
"Is she okay?" I pleaded, please sweetie be okay.
"She is in critical care, please sir come as soon as you can." She informed.
"Yes, I'll head there as soon as I can," I replied.
"Come to the front desk and tell them your name," she informed, I nodded as I began to speed-walk to the car park.
"I should be there in an hour or less," I stated, Papa's coming sweetheart.
(Later)
I stalked into the hospital and as I did, I saw Midoriya-kun light up and race to me. I grabbed his shoulder as he began to ramble barely breathing as he streamed out an unintelligible mess of information. A nurse walked over and began to lead us down the halls I held Midoriya by his shoulder as he kept talking.
"Yamada-san!" FatGum called, I looked up at him as he took my hand. "She's just in surgery they are setting her arms back into place. She hit the ground pretty hard, some weird thing grabbed her."
"It was like the thing from USJ!" Midoriya exclaimed, my blood ran cold. "There was a kid that fell and she sent Nimbus to catch them I tried but I wasn't fast enough!"
"It's okay Midoriya-kun." I soothed, he had fat tears in his eyes.
"She is stable now; she had stopped breathing from the impact of the fall. They got her back in the ambulance but she looked pretty bad." FatGum explained, I nodded as pulled Midoriya close. "I'm sorry Yamada, did they call Eraserhead."
"No, he's on a stakeout…" I explained, he was off the grid till at least four in the morning.
"Get your ass over here brat!" a voice yelled, I turned to see an older hero march down the hall.
"Gran Torino…" Midoriya stated, he left my hold and the old man whacked him with his stick.
"I told you to stay on the train!" he hissed, I pulled Midoriya back.
"Don't hit him," I stated, he looked up at me.
"Who the heck are you?" he demanded.
"Present Mic, his sensei," I replied, he pointed his cane to me.
"Make sure this boy listens to his elders, he's just as fool-hearty as Toshinori!" he huffed, I guess this was Toshinori's old mentor.
"I will talk to him about that," I replied, he huffed.
"Did that girl's parents come?" he grumbled, Midoriya went over and whispered to him. "Wait, you're her father!?"
"One of them," I replied, he sighed. "What happened here? I saw fires on the way in."
"Monsters attacking the whole area, one was burnt alive by Endeavor's spawn, I caught the flier one but it can't speak. Not sure who sent them." He explained.
"I do, they attacked UA a month or so ago," I stated, he looked to me. "They're experiments mutated and given multiple quirks."
"I don't like the sound of this…" he muttered, neither did I.
