The same day
Shiro had walked into the room, who now sported a collar around her neck along with a white shirt and blue jeans. She then asked:
"So how did it go master?"
"Shiro…"
She then looked surprised as she saw his tear streaked face and looked angry then asked:
"Who made you cry master? I'll beat them up!" she said with her voice getting higher pitched and cuter.
"You don't have to do that, Shiro. But I do have to ask you, do you love me?"
She then blinked in surprise, rubbed the back of her head and said in confusion:
"Do I love you…? Not romantically. I mean I would screw you if you asked me to. But… I guess I do like you and want to be by your side. We did just meet master! Why are you asking me this?"
"Because someone made me realize that I have more people that care about me than I think. So do you love me?"
"In a master/servant way I do", she said sensually.
"I'll take it", he said with a smile.
"I never have seen you smile before… it's nice. You should smile much more", she said her voice getting even more feminine to the point that she sounded like she was a school girl again.
Aoi and Dr. Fujitora walked in at the same time and the old doctor then said:
"You ready to get out of here?"
"Yes, but first. Do you two love me?" he asked in a non-stoic tone.
They both froze and blinked. Aoi was the first to respond with a:
"Of course, onii-sama. Why would I not love you, you're my brother?"
"I'll admit, you grew on me kid".
"Good, I love you back as well… tou-san, imouto", he said happily.
Aoi flashed a smile while Dr. Fujitora merely beamed at his new title. Dr. Fujitora then said:
"Sensei wants to tell you something important he discovered".
"Then we better go", he said determined.
Kagura then got checked out of the hospital and they drove over to All for One's warehouse. They arrived at the warehouse in thirty minutes and they went inside. Tomura and Kurogiri were outside guarding the door into the usually unprotected door. They then simply let him pass with Tomura remarking snidely:
"Shame your still alive. I would have hoped you would be as dead as a doornail by now".
Shiro punched him in the throat while Shiro just kicked him in his balls. Tomura growled underneath is breath and got off the floor to grab them by the throats, but someone screamed:
"TOMURA! IF YOU ACT UP AND ATTACK KAGURA OR ANY OF HIS GROUP, I'LL TAKE YOUR QUIRK AND FORCE YOU TO TRANSFORM INTO A PLANT!"
Tomura settled to glare at them as he stepped aside and let them all pass. They looked inside to find All for One a total emotional wreck. He completely trashed the place and if he could form tears, they would be standing in a pool of it. He then said to Kagura sadly getting straight to the point:
"I know who runs the Demon Brothers…"
"Who?" asked Kagura now getting his attention.
"My sons…"
Kagura froze and a whole new kind of rage took over him. Before he could explode, All for One slid to his knees, embraced Kagura in a hug and said rambled in sobs:
"I'm so sorry Kagura! It's all my fault they have become so out of control! I was such a poor father to them that I could not foresee the pain they would cause other people and the danger they possessed. They are all my greatest failures and if I could go back in time, I would change everything, and they would be my side than be so power hungry and crazed for destruction! Strike me down if you must, I would completely understand and forgive you for it".
Kagura was so angry at he was told. How the man how made him who he was, created the man who took away his parents. But instead of lashing out, he forgave All for One and wished to know more about what had happened with his sons. He merely looked up and said: "sensei. I forgive you for whatever you think you did. But please tell me more about what happened with your sons".
"I was just so… sad and angry over my mentor's death that I had just taken out all my anger and frustration on my sons. I was obsessed with all three of them, because all three of them were my own children and each of them had mothers that possessed the strongest quirks of the time. So, I put them through even harsher training than I put you, Tomura and Kazuto through. They then became so narcissistic, grandiose and power hungry that they used their quirks which could take and give quirks as well and tried to take my life in order to appease their god complexes. They even showcased more brutality than me when I was grieving for my mentor. They performed entire massacres, destroyed countries, assassinated people in power and the worst yet…"
Dr. Fujitora shuddered at this while everyone else hung to their words.
"All three of them were responsible for decimating both China and the U.S. They did this by massacring U.S and Chinese citizens alike, bombing major cities, stealing massive amounts of money from them and taking the quirks of their strongest heroes and Dr. Fujitora happened to be there at the time of their worst genocides yet".
"Really?" asked Aoi stunned.
"Yes. I was there in the Manhattan Mass Massacre event…"
"But that was about the time quirks first started coming out which was three hundred years ago. How could you have survived that long?" asked Kagura surprised.
"That's because of my quirk: Millennium Revitalization".
"Millennium Revitalization?"
"It basically allows me to live for one thousand years and ultimately give away some of my one thousand years to live to another person in the purpose of saving their lives, healing injuries or allowing that person to cheat death. I still have the normal lifespan of a normal human being, except when I die, I came back to life looking different and go back to being eighteen years old. I then get to do this all the way until I reach one thousand years".
Everyone was shocked beyond relief that such a powerful quirk could exist. Kagura then asked:
"But can you still be killed?"
"Yes. All those years of life would vanish like any other person, but it's harder for me to die of natural causes unless I'm in the last leg of my life and I can recover from serious injuries quicker. And if I ever were to have my quirk taken away, or deactivated, I would lose my life instantaneously. So Eraserhead is my biggest enemy. If he so much as looks at me, I'm dead. But that's not the point. The point is that I was in that city when Oboro was there. And it was horrible… he became the biggest threat to the known world from that because he was responsible for the mass destruction of New York city, the genocide of the five boroughs, wiping out the little island known as Long Island from the map, scorching Westchester county and causing the tri state area to evacuate and move away from their homes. He overall killed forty million people alone. He's one of the strongest men to have ever lived and is more powerful and fearsome than All Might and sensei combined".
Aoi simply patted his back for comfort while Kagura just looked awestruck at what he was told. He then said:
"How will I ever beat that? He killed just as much people as Mao Zedong did in his lifetime from being the ruler of China".
"I believe in you Kagura. We will make you a team of exceptionally powerful members that can help you right my sins. And I will guarantee you power and strength beyond measure. You and The League will be a force to be reckoned with. But I have to say something first…"
"What's that?" asked Kagura.
"I need to choose a successor for All for One. Which means I will also declare the head of The League of Villains as well", he said seriously.
Everyone standing there was shocked and Kagura asked: "why, sensei?"
"I am getting weaker. I'm dying. Which means eventually I will fall. So, I need to make sure, that All for One and all my acquired quirks remain in the world of the living. There is no way I can cheat death and honestly, I think it's high time I pay for my sins". I will give my quirk away sometime after the upcoming UA sports festival and I create a hundred more Nomu's. For now, I conclude this meeting. And I'm very glad to see that you are alive Kagura. You are like a new son to me, I would have beat my self up if you died, especially by the hands of my other children".
"I'm glad to be alive".
Everyone then left. Kazuto and Tomura had overheard the talk and both were speechless. Tomura had a meltdown while Kazuto stood there paralyzed. But both of them vowed to stop at nothing to be the successor of the All for One and the head of The League.
A few days later
Kagura had shown up to class and was immediately bombarded by people congratulating him, giving him gifts for saving their fellow schoolmates, glares from the lower classmen and even some congratulatory remarks from the likes of the third-year students. He arrived in class and saw Momo look his way, he smiled at her and she blushed into her book. Mari stared at the green-eyed boy interest and wondered if they were by any chance dating now. Aizawa then walked orthodoxly early. He then got the classes attention and said good morning to them while everyone else wished him good morning back. He then said:
"I have been told to announce that we are now going to be having the UA Sports Festival coming up, so for the time being- yes Tenya?"
"Sensei! Why are we having the sports festival after such a large-scale attack has happened at USJ!? I find this very problematic and concerning for us students and teachers alike!"
"Well Tenya we can't show weakness to the villains and the spotlight was cast on both UA and the first years, so you guys. Which means everyone is getting some form of training here at UA for the event, including the business class. Eyes will be especially on Mari for fighting a former head of a well-known all female gang, Izuku for having engaged the highest number of villains and Kagura for defeating the greatest number of villains, severely wounding several of them and nearly losing his life. So, all of you train hard and good luck to your training endeavors".
Class then proceeded as normal with the students being dead set on their goals to try and be number one in the tournament. Kagura would for the remainder of the day come up with newer ways to train his quirk.
Some time afterwards
It's the day of the sports festival and everyone was at the arena in their gym uniforms. They couldn't believe the hue crowd that was there to see all of them fight. Aizawa stated that because of what happened at USJ, they received the biggest attendance out of all other first year sports festivals. Kagura and Izuku were at the head of their class with Momo, Tenya and Mari. He had grown so much closer towards the class. Especially Momo who he never talks stoically in front of anymore but has a happier tone on around her and only her. Midnight makes her debut and introduces the sports festival and its traditions to the onlookers. She then says:
"Now then! I would like to present our top first year student who will give an opening statement to you all. He managed to score over three hundred points in the entrance exam, achieve perfect marks in all his classes second to a select few other students and be one of our strongest first year students that ha crossed into our school. Give it up for Kagura Fujitora!"
Kagura then walked up to the podium and heard mutters and envious whispers about him. He adjusted the microphone and said stoically:
"Thank you, Midnight-sensei. I would like to say, I wish the best for all my fellow classmates and those outside my class alike in this tournament. I only promise to do my very best for you all and encourage my fellow students to do the same. As for my friends and schoolmates, I wish you all good luck and hope for the very best for every one of you".
Everyone was stunned at how humble he was, and everyone had started clapping for him. He then stepped down and went back to his class. Present Mic then introduced the obstacle course to them all and made some remarks on how humble Kagura was along with Aizawa who was stuck up there with him. He also mentioned that the first forty two people to arrive at the obstacle course are to go on to the second phase. All the students then got ready by the opening in the arena and all were ready to go. Kagura stood by in the back as he knew he could have easily by passed them all by simply flying right over them while the rest of hi class was in the front since they were the top of the year. The countdown had started at ten and everyone in the audience had started counting down slowly.
The countdown had then hit zero almost instantaneously and four things had happened by then. One was that Kagura was in the air flew past all the other students at breakneck speeds. Izuku had a made a huge crater where he was and charged forward. Mari froze practically the whole group of students and charged on forward. Then the last thing is that Katsuki started flying in the air due to his explosions but at the same speed as Mari. Izuku and Kagura were practically neck and neck with each other with Izuku at a whooping thirty percent of his One for All strength. While Kagura was pushing his quirk to the limit to keep up with Izuku.
In no time, they reached the zero pointers, and both seemingly plowed on through them. Izuku had sped through them while taking out the legs with his mighty fists. Kagura settled for crushing them in an instant into the ground or simply using repelling them away from him. They had then reached the tightrope area, Izuku had started jumping from platform to platform while Kagura had just flown over the whole thing and managed to get ahead of Izuku. The curly haired boy thought to himself:
'Kagura-kun is going to make it. The only possible chance that I could have to catch up or even get ahea of him is to use One for All at forty percent. It's a gamble since the most I've used One for All was at thirty five percent and it nearly shattered my bones. But my legs are not only stronger and denser bone wise, they have more power in them. I think I'll risk it! I have to if I want to win'.
"One for All: 40%!"
Izuku then shot out even more green lightning and he shouted:
"Power rush!"
He then put in all his leg strength into his legs and sprinted forward. He managed to catch up and go farther than Kagura. His step destroyed most of the mines in the minefield which caused Kagura to fly a little higher to avoid the explosions. Izuku then decided since he felt good, to bump it up all the way to forty five percent which in a blink of an eye made him arrive in the arena. Kagura simply cursed under his breath, but he also smiled to for his enemy and friend. He arrived shortly afterwards, and both had the fastest times to complete that obstacle course as they were way ahead the rest of the competition. Kagura then landed and stuck out his hand to Izuku. They then shook hands in front of the crowd which prompted an uproar at their comradery. Twenty minutes passed by until Mari and Katsuki arrived along with Tenya coming in sixth, Kazuto coming in twentieth place then Ochaco, Tsuyu, Momo, Denki, Fumikage, Ejiro, Hanta, Mina, Mezo and Yuga and Mashirao.
All forty-two people have arrived, and Present Mic went on to explaining the next phase which he explained to be a Cavalry Battle. He said they should all get into teams of four to two and Midnight explained the point system to them. She said that the forty second person to arrive will be worth five points while every place above that is worth an extra five points. She then gave the kicker that Izuku is worth ten million points for winning the last phase, she then said that they all have fifteen minutes to decide who they are going to team up with. Kagura immediately went over to Izuku who was terrified and asked stoically:
"Hey. Want to team up?"
Izuku looked at him in shock and asked: "why do you want to team up with me!? You should form your on team so we could verse each other!"
"I have plans to carry you over to the next phase no matter what. After all, I want to face you one on one and I think I'll get my chance if I carry you over to the next phase", he said logically.
"Sure, now we just need-
"Deku-kun! Let's team up", demanded Ochaco.
"That's-
"Ah! Are you two Midoriya Izuku and Fujitora Kagura?" asked a girl with yellow green target eyes and pink hair.
"Yes?" said Izuku.
"I want to join your team. If I get to join your team, I get to show off my babies to the whole world! Especially if you three were to use my babies in the tournament given how you two were the fastest to complete the obstacle course and I can sure we all win with the power of my babies!" she said enthusiastically getting in Izuku's space.
"S-sure. You can join. What's your-
"I'm Hatsume Mei. It's a pleasure to meet all three of you. Now then, let me show you my babies!"
She then took out a bunch of gadgets. They ended up taking just the hover boots and Izuku then started talking about formations. Kagura had stated he be in the front because he can be the center of all four of them which would help him use his quirk and that he's too big for Izuku and the girls to carry. Ochaco would take the left rear and Mei would take the back. They got into their formation, Kagura then magnetized them all into one conglomerate piece through his new super move, Magnetic Unity. Ochaco reduced the gravity all of them and would be in chare of flight while Mei would see the enemies coming with her sight and Izuku would defend the ten million.
Mari, Momo and Tenya became one whole time and they went up to Denki, but they suddenly heard a voice call out to them and say:
"You three mind I join your little ragtag group?"
It was Kazuto who had said this, and he had one a friendly smile on his normally no bullshit features. Tenya recognized him from the entrance exam and started flailing his hand around while saying:
"You told me off during the entrance exams!"
"Sorry about that guy. I was bit wound up because I thought I wouldn't make it to UA", he said sheepishly.
"Well at least you apologized", he said reluctantly.
"What's your name and what's your quirk?" asked Mari
"Kazuto Nanashima and my quirk is Body Manipulation. It allows me to control things like my healing factor, muscle or bone production, strength, speed and I can turn into a giant".
"You're in".
"Cool. I'll take front since I'm so big and you're all so tiny".
"Agreed".
Katsuki then got Ejiro, Hanta and Mina with him while everyone else formed conglomerates of each other. Midnight then called time and asked for every cavalry to get into the center of the arena. They all did just that and the students thought about their key strategies to win. Although Kagura noted that kid with blue hair and looked like he didn't sleep in days not communicate with his team at all but give orders to them. Kagura tapped Izuku on his leg and said:
"Are you ready?"
Present Mic then announced that only the top four with the most points could go on to the next phase. He then called out:
"OOOKAY STUDENTS! ARE YOU READY!?"
They all then gave off cheers that they are ready.
"ARE YOU READY LOVELY AUDIENCE!?"
The audience all gave off loud screams that signified they were ready for the rumble to begin.
"OOOKAY! EVERYBODY SAY IT WITH ME! READY!"
Mari and Katsuki gave Izuku a fierce glare as they wanted to completely be number one this round.
"SET!" said Present Mic and the crowd
Izuku tied his one-million-point headband around his neck and looked to nowhere in particular in defiance.
"GOOOOO!"
And that's when all hell broke loose for team Midoriya.
So, I got a bit sidetracked with life and my head just kind of swarmed with ideas on top of that. Then I'm starting to get back on the horse a bit by focusing on my dream of studying linguistics in college. I was literally up at three o'clock because of my insomnia and I said to myself: "self. How about I learn French and retrain my brain in Spanish because I am motivated and feeling in a great mood to get back at my feet today?" Then everything just kind of clicked and fell in place which means either this is a great turning point for me and I'm out of my teenage crisis stage. Or I'm completely hypomanic right now from my insomnia and I'll come out of it and be like: "mange mon cul, Français!" then go back to writing full blast. Who knows? I'm just a young man trying to get back on his feet so that I can achieve the best self of who I can possibly be. I'm going to pause here because I got to make at least some headway on the next chapter before I pass out and get severe nightmares for the umpteenth time this week. Hopefully I'll finish chapter fourteen tomorrow, because I know you guys would want to know how this plays out. So, until next time guys!
