Chapter 17:


Frey's POV:


"Did we even motherfuckin' do Rescue Training?"

"No, bitch, we didn't."

"Shit."

"Ugh. This is gonna be a fucking mess."

"You can say that again, peasant."

"Did you really forget to do Rescue Training, Eat?"

"...It happens."

"Goddammit."

"Anyways, Soul Mark's gonna be explaining the mechanics of this round."

"Okay so this is a free-for-all type of game mode. You will be rescuing Robot Victims made by a Support company that is designed for practice. They can feel, they can be emotional, and they have the same psychology as a human being. For some scientific reason, they're also partially organic which means Healing quirks are a great asset for this one. The goal is to rescue as many victims as you can in a disaster with an unexplained twist. Scores would be based on the type of victims you rescue. A child would naturally be more valuable than an adult. Teaming up is encouraged but sabotaging others would mean automatic disqualification."

"Dammit." You heard Carlos say. Of course that cheap bastard was planning on sabotaging the fucking round. Respectable AND disgusting. You can't really judge much else though since you are a crook. Probably still is. "Welp. This would be easy if we team up."

"Agreed." says Natalya. "The combinations from our quirks would be very helpful right now."

"I need to say something. I read Soul Mark's mind. The twist is…" ah fuck. The moment that twist came out of her mouth made you sick. Like, how are you supposed to deal with that?

"How the hell are we supposed to deal with that?"

"Well, for starters, Izuku has a plan. Well it's more of a plan from both of us. I just made sure that we aren't leaving any loose ends." Edward decides to intervene. "Okay, Rabbit, lay it on us."

"O-Okay so the plan is…"

10 minutes later… well shit. I mean. I don't really know any way to be subtle but yeah. Best I can do is those ellipses and shit. Anyways, you probably already figured out the twist when you read the manga.

"I am not sure whether I like this plan or not." Carlos said as he's preparing to run into the city along with the rest of your class. "Hey, I'm your get out of jail card if it has to happen."

"I know but are you sure with this? You ain't gonna be motherfuckin' all up and bothered by what might happen?"

"Nah. Had to do it to a dude once."

"Sometimes, there are things that are best motherfuckin' left in the dark."

"Spot on with that shit. Best that I don't talk about all the illegal shit I did before my grandma picked me up in the streets."

"Did ya-"

"I didn't kill anyone. Actually it's more like I just healed them after."

"Yep. Nota gonna wanna talka abouta thata shita."

"Why the hell did you suddenly add a's at the end of each word?"

"Well…"

"START"

And then the both of you along with your entire class ran into the destroyed city.

"Hey Nellia, do that shit we've been practicing." Carlos said while he was looking around for possible victims. "Right now?"

"Yeah." She got near Carlos and touched his arm and closed their eyes. All of a sudden, most of your class knew where the robots are. "How the fuck did you do that?"

"Well… Bard of Void."

"Bard of Void?"

"Void got a lot of meanings. It could mean nothing or secrets or obfuscation or something hidden. Bard in that webcomic is a destroyer class. Well, more of a passive destroyer. All I did was help Nellia destroy the… how do you fuckin' call it? Hidyness? Hidingness? Eh you get what I mean. I helped locate the motherfuckers."

"How much more abilities does this fucking webcomic give you?"

"About… 12 including the Bard of Void. 13 if you include Lord of Time. It kinda affects my personality a whole motherfuckin' lot though. Hard to fuckin' explain. As long as I could abuse the verbs and the different ways to abuse how it was interpreted by other people. Though like I said, Bard's verb is destroy and Lord itself is pretty self explanatory."

"...shit." That just came from Rabbit. "Carlos. You have to tell me EVERYTHING."

"Do you seriously want to turn into trash? Cause I did after reading that webcomic."

"I turned into hero trash and Kacchan is already trash."

"Woah woah. Calm the fuck down, Izubro. Where is this you callin' Blasty 'trash' comin' from?" Before you could get the answer, Memory Eater bursted through the nearest wall. Which is directly beside Edward who managed to break his fall by creating a gemstone ramp that softened his fall. Fuck physics, apparently. "SURPRISE! Yep, I'm the twist. Let's see how you handle rescue and fighting at the same time, Heroes." He quickly took one of those orbs he always eat but Carlos teleported it away from him. He quickly destroyed it after grabbing a hold of it.

"A x10? Seriously, Pops? You want to kill us or something?"

"Look, I'll hold back if since I know my own strength but still, you missed one important detail." He quickly did a jab as Carlos blocked it but it still sent him straight to a wall. "I already ate one. That was a fakeout to make you feel safe."

"Carlos, Frey, Angus, and Arnold. Execute the plan. NOW!" Edward and Rabbit said at the same time with the same intensity. Carlos already teleported enough dolls to make near you so you can press the rescue button on their backs to give you points. You already had enough. Angus and Arnold was about to the the same but Memory Eater quickly destroyed those robots before they could do so. "Dammit. We'll have to make sure everyone else passes at the next round. BILL!" Your sword suddenly appeared beside you as you narrowly dodged the hero's punch. He really was going easy on you if all he's doing is punching. You heard that getting powerbombed by this hero is absolutely painful.

"What's up boss?"

"Distract him. Now."

"Okay, boss." Your sword began swinging recklessly on Memory Eater though it was more of a 'get away from my master' method than a killing intent. The hero quickly found an opening on the reckless swings and quickly swatted Bill away and going for you. He was too damn fast. You were quickly on a chokehold but you saw Angus grab him and quickly sent an electric shock. It momentarily stunned Memory Eater but gave enough time to get a kick in the Solar Plexus from Carlos and a punch to the face from an enhanced Arnold. It almost ended well but Memory Eater quickly managed to grab a hold of Arnold's arm and Carlos' leg and threw them across the street. Well, he was only able to do it on Arnold but Carlos simply teleported back to deliver a punch to his dad.

"Not so fast." Memory Eater said as he grabbed Carlos' arms and stunned him with a swift jab to the face before slamming him repeatedly to the ground like Hulk and Loki. "HURRY THE MOTHERFUCK UP! I CAN'T TAKE THIS MUCH PUNISHMENT YA KNOW!" Carlos told you as you Bill got back to your side.

"Bill, cut Carlos's arm off. The one that got grabbed."

"You sure, senior?"

"Do I look like the type of guy to repeat myself? Do it!" Bill quickly did what you said as he rushed towards Carlos. In one fell swoop Bill successfully sliced his arm off. "Motherfuck that hurts."

"Carlos, what the hell were you thinking." That was enough to distract Memory Eater as you quickly grabbed his torso and forcefully put the pain receptors to double the effect. Angus then appeared and grabbed Memory Eater. "THUNDER OVERDRIVE!" He actually sent the hero to his knees. "Cutting your own arm off in front of your own father." He said while he's panting. "Bold move, Carlos. But not quite enough!" He used Carlos' severed arm to hit Angus which launched him into an Arnold who just got back up. "Ah shit." That's pretty much all you could say before a large shadow appeared at Memory Eater.

"What the-" You said as you looked up the sky to see Rabbit with a giant ball made out of debris. Artemis suddenly came out of the shadows and pulled Memory down until he is stuck waist down into the ground. Even Memory Eater was shocked by this. "I didn't see this one coming. Was this your plan all along, Carlos?"

"Not my plan. It's both Izubro's and Edward's plan."

"I see. Tell them that I'm impressed. I really am. Managing to beat the number 3 hero is no easy feat."

"Oh shut up. You were holding back. If you used more than times ten we would have been fucked."

"True." The hero said with a laugh. How powerful really is this guy? He took on 4 of us as if we were some puppies playing around.

GAME OVER

You heard the announcement. Seems like the game's over but you already have enough points with Carlos to pass. Poor Arnold and Angus though.

"Well, while Eat breaks his out predicament, we'll be showing you who managed to pass to the final part of our Sports Festival."

The screen showed and… there's only a few. What the fuck. Why?

FINALISTS:

IZUKU MIDORIYA

ARTEMIS IRO

APOLLO IRO

DOLPH LITHER
NATALYA DRAGUNOV

ARON BRADE

EVA PINES
CARLOS CURDO
GARFIELD NIMAL

MIRA FOKAL

LUCY PERA

JONATHAN MAVERICKS

JOLENA CONSEJO

EMMA VOLANTE

DREGAN MOR

"How we determined who passed or not is the way they handled the bots themselves. It is whether they actually treated them with care like a real rescue and we also gave bonus points to those who defended against the villain. Too bad the two others didn't have enough points to make it."

"So you ain't the surprise twist, Pops?"

"Of course I am. They just didn't tell you how many surprises are there. Heck, we knew about Nellia so we intentionally didn't tell Soul Mark anymore information other than myself."

"So we've been outplayed."

"Or maybe you shouldn't have called the robots 'Peasants', Edward" Natalya said.

"I… you know what? You have a point there, peasant."

"Thank you very much."

"And now we have the match up on who's facing who on the final tournament."

The board showed you who was gonna fight each other. This can't be good.

Frey vs Jolena

Izuku vs Natalya

Artemis vs Eva

Dregan vs Apollo

Aron vs Garfield

Mira vs Emma

Carlos vs Lucy

Jam vs Dolph

"You kids can have a 1 hour break. Oh and Frey, would you kindly reattach my son's arm? The crowd is still freaking out."

"Great. I have to face Ms. Annoying?" You said pointing at Jolena who was jokingly offended as you were healing/reattaching Carlos' arm. How much pain can this fucker take?

"Ya know if she annoyed you, you could've stopped her anytime. You didn't. I motherfuckin' wonder why." Carlos retorted in a mocking tone. You actually got a little embarrassed.

"W-WHAT? It's n-not like I like her or anything…"

"That's what all those denial bitches from Japan say. Trust me since I was in Japan for like, 4 years and shit. From the looks of it, she likes you too."

"I-I J-JUST LIKE MESSING WITH HIM, CARLOS!"

"You flirted with every guy in class until you saw Frey and he became your usual target and shit. Don't tell me you ain't crushin' on him."

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" You both say at the same time in an embarrassed tone. You're both blushing at this point.

"Eh sure, have it your way. Just tryna' push you in the right direction. If it ain't like that then, meh." Good thing Carlos knows when to drop it. Until you see that fucking shit eating grin of his as he turned around. You are so gonna face him if he manages to meet you at the finals.


Carlos' POV:


New thing: Never ever intentionally rip your own arm off, unless you absolutely need to, ever again. Hurts like shit. Good thing Frey was here or you would've had to off yourself to reset your arm. You handed him your jacket seeing as how much it would take to actually heal an arm that got ripped off the body. Like shit, that fuckin' hurt. Anyways, you got an hour for lunch break. Mr. Universe have taken the injured to the infirmary though you offered to teleport them there in which the dude kindly accepted. Guy said he gotta take whatever help he gets when it comes to making sure everyone's okay. A hero not accepting help is a very foolish hero. Kinda reminds you of Blasty and that slime incident.


ANOTHER MOTHERFUCKIN' FLASHBACK…


You were walkin' back home after leaving Izubro and his mother at the hospital because of that dude's quirk awakening. He got some motherfuckin' power output with what he can do with that quirk. Hopefully it's Matter Manipulation and not some boring ass telepathy.

"KABOOM" You heard an explosion right across the street and you saw people crowding over the source of explosion. "Oh, a motherfuckin' villain attack. Better look who's having a very bad day." You quickly put on your bandanna you keep around for some covert shit you do sometimes. Like seeing blackmail material you could use on them school bullies. It's fun bullying bullies. Let's them know what it fuckin' feels like.

Looks like the villain's some kinda green slime piss guy. The victim was… no fuckin' way. It's Blasty Mcsplody. You might've want to do something so you teleported near him. Teleported some slime off his mouth. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?"

"Need a hand, Blasty?"

"FUCK OFF I GOT THIS!"

"Okay, then." You quickly teleported a chair next to you and sat on it. You watched as Blasty tried to explode the slime off him. "You sure you don't nee-"

"FUCK OFF! I'M FINE FOR FUCK'S SAKE! FUCK YOU! I NEVER NEEDED HELP FROM ANY OF YOU!" He said so loudly that everyone heard it. Instead of worried looks, he's now getting scowls. People are now leaving though the heroes decided to stay. Some Woody guy tried to grab you though you simply moved out of the way. "IT'S DANGEROUS THERE KID!"

"Nah, I could get away with this." You said as you simply teleported away as the slime tried to smash you. "Didn't you hear him? He doesn't need your help. Let him do it himself."

"B-But…" Your silver tongue and is now working on the heroes. 'I mean, I am gonna save him when he faints. Might as well give him what he wants right now though. Which is, not helping him.'

That WAS your plan until vines started erupting around Blasty and pulled him out of the slime. He was already unconscious when he got pulled out. You looked at the source of the vine and saw a girl with vines for hair. 'She's like a female version of Izubro. A true motherfuckin' hero.' You would have gone up to her but Japanese Superman suddenly appeared and punched the slime away. After the incident, you were scolded by the heroes. "Eh, not like I'll see you again in a long time anyway so I ain't takin' what you said to heart." They actually looked offended. "Well excuse me, I am one of the rising heroes that just debuted right now." Says some blondie wearing a spandex.

"Really? I thought you were some kinda Super Thot or some shit. You kinda acted like one earlier. If being a thot is the only way for you to be popular, that just goes to show that you ain't that much of a hero. A Pro, yes, but a real hero? Nope. The fact that you're just a hero for money and fame proves me right, am I right?" You said that right in front the cameras. You're being a hypocrite but it feels so good to bring narcissistic people down. You activated your Bard of Void to make her unknowingly reveal the truth thus, destroying it. "Yes, I only do it for fame and money." She did it involuntarily and naturally at the same time. Perfect. In front of the reporters too. "H-How did you do that? Your quirk is teleportation, right?"

"You could say that. Look! All Might's still here." Blonde looked up in confusion while he was speaking to the Vine Girl. He instantly got crowded by reporters though the Vine Girl easily slipped away. At the corner of your eyes, you saw Blasty being praised by the Pros. He doesn't look like he's enjoying the praise though. You quickly followed the girl until you reached a street at the suburbs where no one else seems to be right now. "Hey." You called out to her. She looked back to see you. She looked uncomfortable when she saw you. Understandable. "I'm not here to talk shit so calm down, will ya?"

"O-Okay."

"I just wanna apologize."

"For what?" She looked confuse. "For not doing shit back there. All I did was just watch him and it definitely looked so disgraceful that you had to step in. I do got one question for you, though. If you knew him like I do, would you still save him?" You were curious on what she'd answer.

"Y-Yes. Everyone heard what he said but… no one deserves that fate, don't you think?" You just sighed. She really is a female version of Izubro. "Let's just agree to disagree. You're a good person, whoever you are. What's your name anyway?"

"Shiozaki Ibara." She manage to say that after being flustered.

"Carlos Gerald Curdo. English motherfucker this side of Japan. Probably going back home after I'm done with Middle School. You're going to UA, ain't cha?"

"How would you know that?"

"Pretty obvious."

"Oh."

"Hope we meet again. Maybe next time, I'll see ya at the top charts."

"I-I don't care about the rankings. I just want to help people. Maybe even save them from themselves." She said. You just smiled. "That just proves more on the fact that you're gonna be a great hero. Any-"

"CHUCKLEFUCK!"

"Oh for fuck's sake." You filtered out most of his insults. You found out that if you tried hard enough, you could ignore someone's bitching. "AND YOU CHLOROBITCH!"

"Chlorobitch?"

"I DIDN'T NEED YOUR FUCKING HELP! I NEVER NEEDED ANY OF YOU! I'LL BE NUMBER 1 SO DON'T GO THINKING YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME!"

"Ya know, Izubro tried to jump earlier." That actually shut him up. Good. Even though what you said is a complete lie.

"Good." That's all he fucking said. He's a monster, not a villain. He's avoiding eye contact though while looking emotionless so you could never tell what he's really feeling. Or you're just too lazy to try. He's walking away anyways without another word.

"Did he just say that to a suicide attempt?"

"Yep."

"Oh"

"I AM HERE!" For fuck's sake x2 combo. What shocked you more was when All Might suddenly shrunk. He's now Small Might. "What in the fuck?!" You said appropriately.

"Let me explain." And so he did explain everything. You don't even know if you need to be in this conversation. He got injured though but he never showed you where. "That's… I understand why you wouldn't reveal this to the public. It would cause major panic." Shiozaki said.

"Young girl, what is your name?"

"Shiozaki Ibara."

"Young Shiozaki, I have come with thanks, and a proposition. As for you, Young Curdo-"

"Wait how the motherfuck did you know my name?"

"Your father is a friend of mine."

"You're the guy my bro and I are leeching off?"

"Don't call it leeching, I prefer to call it giving you your needs. Anyways, what you did back there was dangerous regardless of your quirk. You could have teleported out of the way but what about have you considered a possible civilian that could've been behind you?"

"Oh shit, you right. I could've just taken the hit." He spit out blood. Is the injury really that bad? It freaked both you and Ibara out. "That's not what I- oh nevermind. Young Shiozaki, I must thank you. If it weren't for you I would've just been All Talk instead of All Might."

"W-what do you mean?"

"I was one of the people in that crowd. I had already went over my limit for the day so I thought to myself that I wouldn't be able to do anything. It didn't help that Young Curdo just casually walked into danger. Hopefully your brother doesn't watch tv. You, however, a young teenager no older than 16 managed to do something while every other hero, including me, just gave up. Tell me, what were you thinking at that moment." All Might asked.

"I-I wasn't really thinking at that moment. My body just moved on their own. I couldn't let someone die no matter who they are." All Might smiled at her statement. "Young Shiozaki, do you know what everyone who became heroes say on their first time saving someone? Not just pros but the REAL heroes? It's all the same. Their bodies just moved on their own."

Ibara looked shell shocked at this revelation. She's havin' tears falling down her cheeks. You were just standing there awkwardly holding her shoulders. You don't really know what the fuck to do right now. "Young Shiozaki, I have chosen you to inherit my power. One For All."

"One for All? What type of shit name is that. Sounds like some sort of three musketeers."

"Well, I have worked with your father and the World's Number 2 from time to time."

"One for All? Nobody really knew what your quirk was."

"One for All enhances my abilities and it can be passed down. Of course, we have to train you to be a proper vessel or your body might… explode."

"EXPLODE?!"

"No worries, I'll think of a training regimen that will get you in shape just in time for the UA's entrance exam. You can join us if you want, Young Curdo. Perhaps we could use that dump site at Dagobah beach."

"Nah, we'll be using that beach."

"We?"

"I mean Izubro and I. He just awakened his quirk. Might as well help in manage it 'till KoVA's entrance exam." You shrugged.

"You're going back home? I see. What about your brother?"

"He can take care of himself. You know how strong he is if you're keepin' an eye on us."

"Very well then. Young Ibara, meet me at the local gym next week."

"You know she didn't say yes or no yet, right?"

"I… accept."

"Good answer."

"One more thing, Uncle Mighty. You're dooming her fate." You tried to make it as vague as possible. Japanese Superman tried to carry the world alone as a pillar. Too bad based on your study of architecture, just one pillar in a big ass temple obviously doesn't work. "What do you mean by that?"

"Eh, you'll figure it out, Shio."

"Pet name basis already?" You actually blushed from that when All Might said it. You know it was a tease but jeez. "W-What?" You both say. All Might just laughed. Blood included. You just teleported away.


Flashback motherfuckin' ends.


"You okay, Carlos? You have that distant look. Well, you're smiling at that vegetable for no reason. Are you nervous?" You heard Izubro say. Always worried about his friends. "Nah, I'm fine. I'm just having that dramatic anime flashback."

"A what?"

"The break is over folks. Everyone please head back to the stadiums. The first two fighters, start making your way to the stage. Good luck both of you!"

"Looks like that match's about to start. You ready, Izubro?"

"Ready as I'll ever be…"

{- To be Continued...


How's life? Yep. I kinda bullshitted my way into turning her into the 9th OfA user. Just some bonus shit. School's being shit so don't expect me to upload often. I've been making up plans on what to do with this fic. I figured that these guys would meet the OG 1A sometime in the future though. Any-motherfuckin-ways, leave a like and subscribe. This drunkfic has managed to go for so long since I technically have writing stories as a hobby. And also a way to procrastinate. Like, I have 5 quizzes tomorrow. I didn't even study. Hehe.
