Hello again everyone, glad to see that the comments are neutral this time.
Chapter 11
"I hope Deku's alright. I hope that Deku's alright." Ochako repeated in her head, becoming more worried.
After All Might made the announcement that Izuku and Toru won the match, the dark green hair boy was immediately taken to the infirmary.
"Hey." Fumikage said, causing Ochako to jump.
"Y-yes?" The gravity Quirk use asked, still started.
"I know that you're worried about your...friend, Zwen. But we need to focus the task at hand." Fumikage explained, causing Ochako to nod her head.
Currently, both Ochako and Fumikage are acting as the villains and are up against Yuga Aoyama, the student who is wearing the circular buckle belt, and Shoto Todoroki, a student with red and white hair.
"So, do you have a plan in mind?" Ochako asked as she tried to think one herself.
"I was thinking that you should guard the weapon. With your Quirk, it should be easy for you two move it. If this was an actual weapon, any sudden movement would accidentally activate it, causing it to explode." The bird headed male explained, causing Ochako to nod her head.
"What about you?" Ochako asked, becoming curious.
"I'll be attacking our opponents; my Quirk is suitable for fighting." Fumikage explained, causing Ochako to become confuse.
"What is your Quirk? I don't think I've seem it." Ochako asked, causing Fumikage to smirk slightly.
"Come, Dark Shadow!" Fumikage called and a shadowy creature with a bird's head came out of the black cloak that the bird headed student is wearing.
Ochako became shock and took a step back.
"Wasn't expecting that." Ochako said, staring at the Dark shadow.
"This is Dark Shadow, it's basically a sentient Quirk that I can control." Fumikage explained as Ochako started to examine the shadowy creature.
"Cool." Ochako stated before a question entered her head.
"Since this is a shadow, can it be effected by light?" Ochako asked, causing Fumikage to smirk slightly.
"Not everyone ask that question and just assume that it's power depends on my stamina." Fumikage said, causing Ochako to smile sheepishly.
"Sorry about that, I guess that Deku's curiosity about Quirks is rubbing off me." Ochako explained, starting to scratch the back of her head.
"To answer your question, Uraraka. Dark Shadow is weaker in the light, making it much easier to control. But in the darkness, it becomes more powerful, but harder to control." Fumikage explained, causing Ochako to nod her head.
"I guess that it will bad for you if you're against Aoyama, his Quirk seems to be light based." Ochako pointed out, causing Fumikage to nod his head.
"Agreed, but it looks like that Aoyama is only able to use it in short bursts. The best time for me to strike is when he's not shooting." Fumikage explained, causing Ochako to nod her head before starting to frown.
"The next problem is Todoroki, what do we know about him?" Ochako asked, causing Fumikage to hum slightly.
"Well, from the look of his hero costume. It looks like Todoroki's Quirk is ice." Fumikage explained, deep in thought.
"He's probably the most dangerous out of our two opponents. He can probably freeze any means of escape with the weapon." Ochako said, causing Fumikage to nod his head.
It was then that an announcement is made.
"Time to get moving then." Fumikage said before heading out of the room, being followed by Dark Shadow.
"Good luck!" Ochako called with a smile on her face.
"You too!" Dark Shadow replied with a thumb up, causing Ochako to become wide eyes.
"It can talk!?" Ochako exclaimed, causing Fumikage to smirk slightly.
"How did I end up being partnered up with him?" Shoto thought with a raised eye-brow as he glance towards Yuga, who's hero costume consists of a knight themed armor along with a red winged shaped visor. The two of them are walking along a corridor within the building.
"Hehe. I hope that this battle will make me shine bright." Yuga said with a smirk on his face.
"Scratch that. How did he end up in U.A in the first place?" Shoto thought again, sweat-dropping.
However, it was then that Shota started to frown when he started to see a shape from within the darkness.
He didn't have time to say anything when something come rushing towards them.
"Get down!" Shoto exclaimed as he grabbed Yuga by the cape and drag him to the ground along with him, causing Dark Shadow to sweep over the two.
"Didn't expect to sense Dark Shadow with little light." Fumikage commented as he took a few steps forward, Dark Shadow returning to his side.
"Is that Uraraka girl here as well or protecting the weapon?" Shoto thought as he got back onto his feet.
"Let me handle Tokoyami. You find the weapon." Yuga said as he got ready to activate his Quirk.
"Are you sure?" Shota asked, glancing towards the blond hair male.
"Certainly. Let my Quirk led us to victory." Yuga replied with a smirk before firing a laser from his navel.
Fumikage jumped out of the way of the laser before sending Dark Shadow straight towards the two.
Shota pressed his right hand onto the ground, causing an ice-wall to emerge from the ground. This caused Dark Shadow to bash into it.
"Ow..." Dark Shadow muttered as it rubs its head.
"I'll leave him to you then!" Shota said before making a dash from behind the ice-wall.
"Like I'll let you pass." Fumikage said as he tried to move in attempt to block Shoto. However, the bird headed student found himself unable to move. This confuse Fumikage as he looked down and saw that his feet are trapped in ice.
"Todoroki must have trapped me when he created that ice-wall." Fumikage thought before sending Dark Shadow to attack Shoto.
"No, No, No. Your fight is with me." Yuga said as a laser blast shattered the ice wall and almost hit Dark Shadow who manged to dodge it.
"Thanks." Shoto said before disappearing from view.
"Uraraka. Todoroki heading for you, be careful." Fumikage explained through the micro-transceiver.
"Got it." Came Ochako's response before Fumikage ended the connection.
"Now, shall we dance?" Fumikage asked as Dark Shadow broke the ice, trapping the bird headed student's feet.
"Certainly." The blond hair student replied with a smirk before firing a laser at Fumikage and Dark Shadow and using the recoil to quickly create space. Fumikage dodge the attack before charging towards Yuga.
"Dark Shadow, attack." Fumikage ordered as his eyes sharpened slightly.
"Gotcha!" Dark Shadow said before charging towards Yuga.
"Hehehe. I'm not going to let you get close to me, Little shadow." Yuga said before firing a consent barrage of lasers at Dark Shadow and Fumikage. The bird headed student gritted his teeth when some of the lasers managed to graze him.
However, Dark Shadow swipe a claw at Yuga and managed to hit him.
"Both of us got damage, huh." Fumikage commented before Dark Shadow managed to land another hit on Yuga, sending him flying. As Yuga landed on the ground and tried to stand back up, Fumikage notice something.
"Aoyama...Are you okay?" Fumikage asked as Dark Shadow returned to his side.
"Y-yes. I'm...fine." Yuga replied in a weak tone of voice as Fumikage notice a sick expression appeared on Yuga's face.
"...You don't look it." Kumikagr pointed out in a deadpan tone of voice.
"No...No. I'll be fine after...a while, it's just a...side-effect of using...my Quirk too... often." Yuga explained, trying not to be sick.
"I...see..." Fumikage said before approaching Yuga whilst taking out a piece of tape which is used to capture the members of the hero or villain team.
"One down. One more to go. I'll go and help Uraraka once I'm finish tying Aoyama up." Fumikage thought before starting to tie Yuga.
As soon as Ochako heard that Shoto is heading in her direction, the gravity Quirk user acted fast and used her Quirk to gentle move it so that it is floating in the air and hiding behind one of the pillars.
"Let's hope that Todoroki will be too preoccupied in finding the weapon so that I have time to tie him up." Ochako thought before footsteps can be heard.
"That's probably him now." Ochako thought, hiding behind a pillar herself and a few seconds later, the student with half white and red hair entered the room.
"This looks like a good place to hide the weapon." Shoto muttered as he scan the room.
"But where though? And where's Uraraka?" Shoto thought before an announcement is heard, causing the gravity Quirk user to jump slightly.
"Yuga Aoyama of the Hero team has been captured!" All Might's voice boomed from the tannoy system.
"Yeah! One point for us!" Ochako exclaimed excitedly in her head whilst Shoto sighed.
"Tokoyami will be coming after me soon, better hurry and check this room." The white and red hair boy muttered as he started to walk further into the room.
"Just wait until he passes my pillar." Ochako thought as she peaked behind her hiding place.
After a few more seconds, Shoto has passed Ochako's hiding place.
"...Now!" Ochako exclaimed as she jump from behind the pillar, the captured tape ready in her hands.
Shoto gained a slight surprise expression on his face as he saw Ochako suddenly appearing.
However, the white and red hair student managed to jump out of the way.
When Ochako landed in the place where Shoto was originally in, the white and red activate his Quirk, freezing Ochako in place.
"C-c-cold!" Ochako stuttered as her teeth started to chatter.
"That was a good attempt to jump me in surprise, Uraraka. But I would suggest that you don't say anything, it makes capturing your opponent easier."
Shoto explained as he stared at Ochako.
"Now, where's the weapon? Do that and I'll use my right side to unfreeze you." Shoto explained, causing Ochako to become confuse.
"U-unfreeze me? W-what does h-he mean by t-that? Is ice isn't the only thing he can produce." Ochako thought in her head.
"Uraraka!" A voice shouted in an urgent tone of voice and Shoto jumped out of the way just as a shadowy creature tried to attack him.
"T-Tokoyami." Ochako said in relieve tone of voice, smiling slightly.
"Are you okay?" Fumikage asked as the bird headed student came beside Ochako.
"I-I'm fine, j-just freezing cold." Ochako replied, trying to ease the tension.
Dark Shadow started to hack away the ice that is trapping Ochako.
"I thought that only Uraraka would be the only one here and the weapon will possibly be in a different location. But since you came rushing back here Tokoyami, it means that the weapon is also in this room." Shoto explained, causing the villain team to become tense.
"I'm having a guess that it's behind one of these pillars." Shoto said, glancing at the pillars.
Ochako gulped slightly, something that Fumikage notice.
"Even if you find the weapon. You still have to go through me, Dark Shadow and Uraraka." Fumikage said as Dark Shadow got into a battle stance.
"Interesting. I'll will take you on, but don't expect that I will go easy on the both of you." Shoto explained, his eyes sharpening.
"Let's go, Dark Shadow!" Fumikage exclaimed before charging towards Shoto.
The white and red hair boy created an ice-wall like last time. However, Dark Shadow went around it and prepared to attack Shoto with one of his claws.
Shoto attempted to dodge the attack, however, the white and red hair student felt fingers pressing into his back and Shoto felt light.
"It's must be Uraraka's Quirk. I was too focused on Tokoyami's Quirk to notice her moving. It's a good thing that we're inside." Shoto thought as he glances behind his shoulder to see the brown hair girl.
However, before the white and red hair student could think of anything else, Dark Shadow's claw slammed into him, causing Shoto to be sent flying.
Ochako pressed her fingers when Shoto crashed into a wall, causing the white and red hair student to fall onto the ground.
"Not bad, not bad at all." Shoto muttered as he got up off the ground. It was then that he notices something from the corner of his eye.
"The weapon!" Shoto thought, his eyes widening.
"Great. Todoroki spotted the weapon." Ochako said, causing Fumikage to snap his head towards her.
"Seriously?" Fumikage asked, causing Ochako to nod her head. the two of them looked at each other before nodding their and charging towards Shoto.
"I wouldn't suggest on a frontal assault with me." Shoto said as he suddenly frozen the ground.
It's after school and Izuku is walking out of the nurse's office.
"Glad that Recovery Girl fixed my arm, but it feels sore." Izuku thought as he massaged his once broken arm.
"Hey!" A voice called, causing Izuku to turn around to see Katsuki leaning against a wall.
"H-hi, Kacchan." Izuku greeted, starting to feel nervous.
"How's the arm?" Katsuki asked as he glance at Izuku's arm.
"It's fine now, but it feels sore." Izuku explained, causing Katsuki to nod his head slightly.
"I heard from that invisibility girl that you told her that you also have an enhancement-type Quirk." Katsuki said, causing Izuku to blink a few times before laughing nervously.
"Oh yeah...I've forgotten about that." Izuku said, smiling sheepishly whilst scratching the back oh head.
Katsuki sighed at this.
"So, that second Quirk of yours is the reason why you become paralyzed in the first place?" The explosive Quirk user asked, causing Izuku to nod his head.
"Yes. It developed quite recently in fact, that why it causes paralyzation. If I didn't use Darwin's Theory, my second Quirk would have damage my body instead." Izuku explained, causing Katsuki to raise an eye-brow.
"I think that's the biggest backlash I've ever heard." Katsuki said, causing Izuku to nod his head slightly.
"Yes. It certainly is." Izuku said as he scratch his cheek.
"By the way, your girlfriend was on the villain team and totally lost against the half and half guy." Katsuki said, causing Izuku to gain a slight sad expression on his face.
"Oh, thank you for telling me...!" Izuku said before realizing what Katsuki said.
"O-Ochako isn't m-my g-girlfriend!" Izuku exclaimed as he started to blush, causing Katsuki to raise an eye-brow.
"Seriously? You two aren't dating?" Katsuki asked, causing Izuku to nod his head rapidly.
"Y-yeah! We k-known e-each other f-for a w-while now but haven't been d-dating or a-anything!" Izuku exclaimed, stuttering slightly.
Katsuki stared at the mess that Izuku has become.
"Seriously? This guy, who wields two Quirks is acting all wimping at the mention of girlfriend." Katsuki thought before sighing slightly as he decided to change the subject.
"So, what been happening to you for the last eleven years?" Katsuki asked and immediately Izuku become silent.
"The last thing I heard about you was that you got landed in some orphanage but then disappeared." Katsuki explained, causing Izuku to take a deep breath.
"Sometime after I was place in the orphanage, a man called Zander Crom..."Kidnapped" me and took me to a laboratory and was experimented on by a person called Professor Jenze. My first Quirk, Darwin's Theory, was forcefully manifested because of him. I've been experimented on for the first five years." Izuku began to explain, causing Katsuki's eyes to widen.
"How did you managed to escape?" Katsuki asked, becoming curious.
"The laboratory was somehow discovered by the government and got the police and a group of heroes to storm the place, I took the opportunity to escape and ran into the heroes." Izuku replied, causing Katsuki to nod his head.
"And what happened after that?" Katsuki asked, crossing his arms.
"Some time after the assault on Professor Jenze's laboratory, I was taken into Aunt Rin's care and have been living with her ever since." Izuku finish explaining, causing Katsuki to scowl slightly.
"I figured that part out myself when I heard that you start calling yourself "Zwen"." Katsuki said in a slightly annoyed tone of voice, causing Izuku to chuckle slightly.
"Yeah, sorry about that. That's pretty much sums up the past eleven years for me." Izuku said, causing Katsuki to nod his head.
"What about your end? How has...Mum been?" Izuku asked, saying the last bit in a bitter tone of voice, causing Katsuki to become surprise slightly.
"After me, mum and dad heard about your disappearance, we stopped talking to the midoriya's." Katsuki replied, causing Izuku to gain a confuse look on his face when he heard the family name.
"Your...mum and dad decided to get together again after a month after your disappearance." Katsuki explained and for some reason, he decided not to tell Izuku about Izumi, fearing that the dark green hair boy will go on a rampage or something.
At the mention of his dad, Izuku eye's gain a deep fury in them.
If the dark green hair boy felt bitterness towards his mum, then his fury towards his dad is equal to All Might's full strength.
"...I see." Izuku said in a cold tone of voice, something that made the explosive Quirk user flinch.
However, Katsuki regained he posture quickly.
"Well, see you tomorrow." Katsuki said before walking away.
"Huh? Your leaving?" Izuku asked, becoming completely confuse as Katsuki stopped and turned around slightly.
"Yeah. I only came here to see if your arm is okay." Katsuki replied and was about to walk again but stop his movement.
"Well...It nice to see you again, Deku." Katsuki said, smirking slightly before walking away properly this time. Izuku was left stunned for a few seconds before starting to smile.
"Yeah, nice to see you as well, Kacchan." Izuku muttered before taking a deep breath.
"I better go and find Ochako. She will be worried/How...?" A voice spoke, interrupting Izuku as the green hair boy slowly turned around to see Ochako.
Izuku's eyes widen when he saw that Ochako has a very upset look on her face.
"...Hi, Ochako. Been waiting long?" Izuku asked, starting to feel nervous for some reason.
Instead of answering, the gravity Quirk user ran up to Izuku and hug him tightly.
"How can you stay so positive...with all the things you been through?" Ochako asked as tears started to fall from her eyes.
"She must have over-heard our conversation." Izuku thought before taking a deep breath.
"I...don't know really. I guess the people around me help me to heal." Izuku replied as he put one arm around Ochako's waist.
If this was a different situation, the dark green hair boy would be blushing by now.
Ochako felt happy at the comment.
"I'm glad that I helped." Ochako said, smiling slightly.
"Please don't cry, Ochako." Izuku said as he started to stroke Ochako's hair.
The two of them stayed like that, not knowing that they are being watched.
"This is so romantic! I guess love will appear in the air soon." Miss Kayama thought as she took out her phone and started to take photos of the two.
Meanwhile, in the nurses office, Recovery Girl is at a computer, typing something in.
"I can't believe that this hasn't been done before." Recovery Girl thought as she waited for a result on Izuku's blood, which had been recovered from the building that Katsuki managed to half destroy in Ground Beta.
It was discovered that in Professor Jenze's notes concerning Project Evol, the Professor didn't write down Izuku's blood type and when the government tried to find Izuku's medical record, they saw that someone has tampered with it, destroying all the most important pieces of information.
This cause suspicion and Recovery Girl has been tasked to retrieved and examine Izuku's blood when the boy started to attend U.A.
the reason for this is because the government knew that Rin wouldn't let anyone come near Izuku.
After a few minutes of waiting, a beeping sound, causing a small smile to appear on Recovery Girl's face.
"Now then, let's what's all the mystery is about." Recovery Girl said to herself as she started to examine the results.
After a few seconds of reading the results, the old lady's eyes widen.
"Well...This has certainly become interesting." Recovery Girl muttered, starting to become shock.
It's night time and some parts of the city is still bustling will activity.
However, nobody could see that someone is looking down from a top of a building.
"This city...hold some magnificence to it." The person thought as it stared down with amber eyes.
Due to the darkness, the person's feature can't be seen.
However, the eyes started to gain a steel look to them.
"It won't be long now, Zander. I will make sure that you will die this time." The person thought, becoming angry as a hand clench and shook slightly.
And there we have it, Ochako's and Fumikage's match against Shota and Yuga, the conversation between Izuku and Katsuki and a moment between Izuku and Ochako. I hope that everyone is intrigue about what Recovery Girl has discovered and the appearance of person who's after Zander's blood. Please comment and until next time.
Reverseflash: I'm not sure what you mean but the first half of this chapter, the fight between Ochako and Fumikage against Shoto and Yuga can be considered a filler.
fencer29: Thanks for pointing out these mistakes and thanks for the suggestion.
son of Ophion: That's makes sense and I will think about it.
