AND HERE'S CHAPTER 21 OF Death and Beyond!
Now I know I wasn't able to post a chapter yesterday, I have a reason though. I was preparing for my college. Yesterday I was finally enrolled for college. And when I came home I was just tired, and when I got to my bed I just slept. Now, there's something I need to tell you guys.
My school will start at someday at August, so by that time. I won't be able to post daily anymore. And same goes to my other story. But I'm not leaving them. This is not an announcement that I'm leaving this fanfiction. This is just a heads up.
So, with all that all I have to say is
enjoy!
After the camp, the news was crazy about everything. Left and right it was just about the attack. So much people were still injured, some were unconscious, but otherwise fine. The main subject about everyone was the missing student Tomomi Tatsuma. Everyone was devastated to hear the news of their fellow classmate and friend missing.
But some were very sadden at this.
Izuku
Izuku was lying down at the hospital bed recovering from his injuries, but right now he was not minding the pain.
'Dammit! They have Tomomi now, I'm useless! If only I was able to reach him. If only I saved them. If only I got a control on this quirk and not injure myself!' His eyes were now red, from the continuous words and tears he has set on him. 'If only…if only.'
Bakugou
Bakugou was in his room, striking hits after hits on his punching bag.
"Heroes always win!"
For someone to win, they need to lose
"Heroes have no fear!"
They're human too.
Tomomi's words, echoed in his mind, he can never forget their exchange. After the Sports Festival, he made him see a new light. Who would have thought that all this time he was only walking in the dark, aimlessly trying to reach his goal. He reached out to him, just like how Deku reached out to him all those years ago.
'So, this is what it feels to lose.' Sending another fist, this time he used his quirk, destroying the bag in an instant, the contents spilled out of the bag.
'Fuck this, I hate this.'
Shiro
Shiro was shadow boxing in his room, the events on the camp still lingers in his mind.
"I want to beat you someday" Punch
"I want you to be my rival" Punch
"Hey Shiro, we're about to head to the cafeteria want to come?" Duck
"We're both strong." Punch
*Crack*
Hearing a crack Shiro looked up, his punch connected to the wall, making a crack on it.
'Strong my ass, I was the one who needed saving.'
He looked at his hand, 'How can I call myself a hero? a friend? A rival? If I can't even save you and do the things you do?'
He clenched his fist. 'There has to be something I can do.'
Ryuko Tatsuma
She was in the living room, sitting in the couch while staring at a picture, the picture was the both of them smiling, the background was a forest, they took this picture a couple of years ago when they were still training, time has passed and she was more busy than ever, but Tomomi understood that, saying that seeing her home is fine with him.
When the new that her son was taken and now in the hands of the League of Villains, she was angry, she went to U.A. to demand an explanation, but they had nothing.
Based on the students, Tomomi saved Koshiro Nai from being taken, but Ragdoll states that he was very injured after the battle with a very strong Nomu, and in a last ditch attempt to save Shiro, he kicked a Villain in the face sending him back to the portal, releasing Shiro, but also taking Tomomi with him. She couldn't do anything, there was no gain in getting angry. So she went back to her agency and said that she will not be attending for a couple of days.
The staff their accepted it claiming that she must be tired from all the work. But Nejire, knows why. And expressed her feelings with a hug.
Getting back home, she just sat down and stared at nothing. Getting her wallet she took the picture.
'Tomomi, please be safe.'
Her phone buzzed, picking it up.
"Hello?"
"Ryukyu we know the whereabouts of the League." The voice of All-Might came from the phone. This got her attention.
"Really? What's the plan then?"
"There's two actually. One is probably the main base. While the other is the whereabouts of the Nomu." She pondered this, of course she wants to go to the main base, that might be where her son is! "The plan is already being made, a couple of pro heroes will charge at the main base, while some will go to the Nomu base."
"And I'm assigned to either one of them."
"Yes."
This is her chance, to get her son back there's no way she can let this pass. "I'll be there, give me the location of the meeting."
Shiro P.O.V.
"Your arms can still reach him!" Krishima states.
Right now all of Class A, except for Momo and Jiro who was still recovering. Right now Krishima was trying to get Izuku on board in rescuing Tomomi. Krishima and Todoroki was here yesterday and they heard Ragdoll and All-Might talking with a police officer with them.
Apparently, Tomomi thought that they can finally get a location in regards to the whereabouts of the League. After beating the Nomu, they didn't turned it in to the police instead he put his phone in one of the Nomu's pockets to track it, they asked Momo, who was also awake yesterday for the phone number of Tomomi. With that idea on their mind, they got their phones out and pinpoint the location of Tomomi's phone.
Finally finding it with the help of Rei from the support course, they were able to get the location. Right now they were convincing everyone to join. But most of them were against the idea.
"I'm sorry." A voice said behind me, turning around I saw Tsuyu. "I know how it feels, I couldn't actually do anything to help. I want to save him, but breaking the rules like this, isn't also what the villains would do? If we do this, then we're nothing different from being Villains."
I was silent at this, did I hear that right? Sure breaking the rules are bad, but….are we really just going to stand here!?
"Tsuyu you can't be-." Krishima started but the doctor, stopped him, saying it was time for his checkup.
"I talked to Yaoyorozu, if we want to pull this off it has to be tonight."
Hearing that I can't help but think. This was my chance, to save Tomomi, do I want to? Doing this will disregard the orders of our teachers, doing this will count as vigilantism.
I looked at my hand, Tomomi did so much already. Even if isn't good, even if it hurt him, even if he was seen as something else, even if others were against it. He did it because it was the right thing to do.
Shouldn't I do the same?
Night Time
We were now walking out of the gates of the hospital, arriving at the hospital I was shocked to see Iida, Momo and Bakugou there. Todoroki explained to me that Iida decided to join after his talk with Izuku, Momo cam just in case for anything and make sure to makes us stay out of the fight, Bakugou just said that he doesn't needed that idiot in his conscience.
"Momo, are you sure you're all right?" I asked, from what I heard she got into a fight with the Nomu, someone from Class B got her and they got away, the Nomu not interested in them anymore.
"Yes, Shiro-kun, I'm all right." She smiled and reassured me.
'There's no need for anyone injured in this. But we need all the help we can get.'
Looking forward I put on a determined face.
'Tomomi help is coming.'
Tomomi P.O.V.
You know, waking up in a dark place, would freak anyone out, me? Nah. I already got my fair share of waking up in a dark place. I was already awake yesterday, there was no light in the room I was in, only from the under the door. When I woke up, I was my wrist was chained together, my legs were also chained but they seem to be chained to the wall. On my neck was some sort of collar. There was a puddle of water next to me, I leaned and saw a red light.
If my guess was right then this is one of the new technology the police and the government was coming up with. Then this was the collar that they used on the USJ Nomu and the one at Hosu.
'How did they get their hands on this anyway?'
Right now nothing was happening. I was back in the dark room, my injuries were still there so it was a bit uncomfortable to lean on them.
I still remember the talk I had with the one and only 'Sensei'.
Flashback: Afternoon.
Right now, I was sitting in a chair, legs were strapped, hands were strapped and of course the collar was still there.
"Y'know you're a headache." Shigaraki said that, staring at him with hands covering his body. "You were not supposed to be here, you weren't even our target."
"Your main target was Koshiro Nai and you failed." I informed staring at him, unaffected by his aura.
"SHUT UP!" Shigaraki slammed the table. "You worth-"
"I want to speak to your boss."
The room was quiet, then laughing looking at Shigaraki "HAHAHA YOU! YOU DON'T DESERVE-"
"That's enough Tomura." Came a voice from the 'TV?'
"But sensei-."
"Kurogiri, please transport him to this location."
"Yes, Sensei." Hearing a beep, Kurogiri pulled out his phone and nodded.
Next thing I know I was now transported to an office. Looking at the desk there was a man.
"What do you want?" The man asked.
"Nothing, just want to see who the leader of this whole thing." I said still staring at him, I know who this person is. "Can't believe that's it's All for One though."
The man chuckled.
"I've seen your memories with my Quirks. And I know that you know One for All and me. But that's not all. I know what you really are."
"Oh really? Well shit then." I said not caring at all that I was staring at one the powerful persons in the world. "You must be really old then."
"Yes, same as you." All for One smiled, getting to his drawers he pulled out what seems to be wine. "Want a drink?"
"Hmm..I could say that I'm underage, but we both know that's a lie." I said accepting the drink, my right hand was free and drank the alcohol.
"If you know who I am, then you know that I steal Quirks."
"Yes, but you didn't steal mine."
He seemed to interested in that, he leaned glass still in his hand "Oh? how can you tell?"
"Because I'm still wearing this." Gesturing at the collar on my neck. "If you stole my Quirk then there's no need for me to wear this thing." Finishing the glass of wine.
"Hm, good observation. True I didn't steal you Quirk." He said pouring me another.
I chuckled, "Well look at us, two old men having a drink." I said and he laughed with me. We were silent after this, well that was until he poured himself another.
"I have a question."
"Shoot"
"How?" He asked, looking at me "How can you just accept the world as it is. Every world that you lived, contained violence, death, misery, suffering. How can you still say you're ok? Do you not want to change it?"
I began to ponder at this, it was true during my time there in the other worlds, I experienced a lot, learned a lot, lost a lot. But I was still standing accepting it.
"True, I wanted to change it, but I can't actually force it." He looked at me waiting for me to continue "For me to change everything I didn't need a sword, a gun or a Quirk. All I needed was the patience to watch it grow. I can plant a seed, then I need to take care of it."
I was met with silence, he seems to be thinking this. He poured himself a drink, then gestured for me, raising my glass he poured me a drink. We drank in silence.
"I have a question." I said to him, he gestured for me to continue. "You're tired aren't you?"
"Hmph, what gave it away?"
"Everything."
Flashback End.
After that I was sent back in this room, surprisingly still sober. I couldn't actually believe that one of the strongest beings in this world was that tired. 'I guess, everyone is still human.' There was a movie I actually watched a while ago and it actually has some similarities on All for One's situation. 'What was the quote again? Oh yeah. The more you take the less you have. Beautiful quote.'
I was interrupted when a large boom was heard, then a booming voice was heard.
"I AM HERE!"
I smirked looking at the door. 'Took you guys long enough.'
A couple minutes came flying by, and all I heard was some crashes here and there, then nothing. Then I felt something in my throat.
*Cough*Cough*
'What the hell?!'
I was coughing up something wet, but that wet substance was pulling me. Before I knew it I was falling.
*Thud*
I landed on the ground, fortunately the impact destroyed the chair.
'Welp, I'm going to feel that for a couple of days.'
Standing up, I saw a peculiar sight. Pro heroes was scattered everywhere, at the center was Best Jeanist. Looking at my left I saw All for One, seeing all the destruction, it can only mean that he was responsible.
"To-to-Tomomi!" I heard a weak voice, turning my head I saw my own mother facing the ground, unconscious maybe, she was heavily injured. 'Damn you All for One.' I growled.
Groans of pain came behind me, and I saw everyone that was at the bar. 'Great, just great.'
"So he did come after all." All for One said, looking up, I saw a figure fast approaching. Next thing I knew I was flying by the sheer force of the impact.
'Oh come on! How can this get any harder!'
3 minutes later….
'I had to say it.'
Right now I was fending off Shigaraki, Twice, Compress, Magne, the Lizard Guy and Toga.
Dodging the knife, I used Toga's hand and lifted her up, and used her as a baseball bat to hit Twice. I let her go and she was sent flying. Compress tried to grab me but I saw him earlier and kicked him in the stomach, he was stunned for a moment, but that was all I needed to jump back and dodge Lizard douchebag and Magne from hitting me in the head. I suddenly felt a pull and I realized that it was Magne, grabbing some dirt I lunged it at his face.
"My eyes!"
Blinding him, lizard face, was next beside him was Tomura, my instincts screamed at me, and I jumped barely dodging Toga. But I was now in the air and Shigaraki lunged at me. Thankfully, he was not skilled in combat. Grabbing his wrist I slammed him to Lizard-Fuckface who was about next to me.
Landing on the ground, everybody was just staring at me, clearly cautious and careful. Shigaraki needed direct contact with me to use his quirk, Magne can use his quirk to pull anything, Toga I have no idea. Compress can trap me, Loser-Lizard-Stain-wannabe-fuckface, well can use his swords/knives at me, Twice, well he can double someone.
A gust of air was then sent, signalling the on-going fight, between All for One and All-Might.
Suddenly a huge 'Ice Ramp?' came and we all looked at it.
I then felt a hand on my shoulder and a voice and a curse, that for once I was glad that I heard.
"Hold the fuck on."
A couple of minutes ago…
With the Izuku, Shiro, Bakugou, Momo, Iida and Todoroki and Krishima
"I have a plan guys." Izuku said the presence of All for One still there, but he knows he has to do something, this was the chance!
"Midoriya, we can't f-."
"We don't have to fight, my plan will only get Tomomi saved but please I need your help." Izuku interrupted Iida, this was the chance everything was here to help Tomomi, he was fighting the 6 of the Villains head on, but who know for how long? His injuries were not fully healed.
"Fine, what's the plan dude." Krishima agreeing, if this can help then they should give it a try.
"My plan is simple, we go above, but the problem is that Tomomi won't be able to reach us."
"Deku's right, we can't charge in from the from the ground, if we go above then we will be out of reach." Katsuki agreeing with Izuku.
"Yeah, if the other guy is keeping All-Might busy then, it's working the other way as well!" Shiro said observing the situation. "But he isn't using his Quirk."
"Well the answer is he can't." Todoroki said then pointing back "Look at his neck, you see the collar? That's what's keeping him from using it."
"If only we can get Kacchan there." Izuku said, thinking of a plan, he felt a hand on his shoulder, seeing the hand he looked at Shiro.
"I have a plan."
Izuku nodded "Let's hear it."
Third Person P.O.V.
"Once you guys are in the air I will get Bakugou there."
Todoroki made a huge ramp of ice, while Iida, Izuku and Krishima was together climbing the ice in a very fast pace.
"Then once they're distracted I will transport Bakugou to where Tomomi is."
"And how the fuck are you going to do that?"
"This better fucking work." Bakugou said, Shiro's hand were on his shoulder, right now Katsuki was covered in shadows, it was dancing around him.
"I created a new technique I call it…."
"It will just do your part."
Bakugou suddenly disappeared with a swoosh.
"SHADOW WARP!"
"Hold the fuck on." Bakugou was behind Tomomi hand on his shoulder and Tomomi grinning. Tomomi put his arms around him, holding tight.
"Nice to see you too."
From above the Trio was flying, then Krishima outstretched his hand and yelled "NOW!"
*BOOOOOM!* A gigantic explosion came, and it blasted Katsuki and Tomomi in the air.
*GRAB*
"YOU GUYS ARE FUCKING CRAZY!"
RESCUE MISSION SUCCESS!
AND THAT'S A WRAP!
