Chapter 7
"GIGA LET ME GO!" shouted Izumi who was struggling within the giant's hand even as the girl's inferno quick ignited centering on herself the flames seemingly having no effect on the giant.
"Izumi!" commanded the deep voice of Hiashi Midoriya the father was there and his voice made the girl stop her struggle and turn to face her father he was standing with a black device concealing his entire head. "you will cease your tantrum now" ordered the elder Midoriya.
"Tantrum!" shouted the girl as her flames doubled in size "You left Chizome-sensei there!" accused the girl.
"Gigatomachia release her" OFA ordered making the giant gently place the greenette down.
"Forgive me, princess" Gigatomachia quietly said before retreating from the girl.
"I did leave him, Stain has served his purposes" said Hiashi coldly.
"Served his purpose! Don't talk about him like he was useless!"
"Mr. Akaguro could have been a useful pawn but the benefits of saving the vigilante out weighed the risks needed to save him." Hiashi stated his unseen eyes watching his daughter closely as her flames lessened both figurative and literal. "With the hero Endeavour there it would have required calling upon a true Nomu or sending Gigatomachia to give you the distraction needed to save the hero killer it would have been a vagrant flaunting of what we are truly capable of" Hiashi stated as he approached his daughter.
Izumi's hands where clenched tightly into fists with clenched teeth as she looked down she hated this she felt like she was betraying Stain, but she knew her father was correct. Revealing their hand now would put everything they where doing at risk.
"Send me home" said the girl refusing to look her father in the eyes refusing to show him the resentment nor the hatred she felt towards him at this moment. Hiashi was silent as he looked down towards his daughter already suspecting why she refused too meet his gaze but he'd respect her request and placed a hand on her shoulder giving it a small squeeze. "As you wish, my dear" said Hiashi in a fatherly tone and he left too have Kurogiri retrieve the girl.
"Thank you Kurogiri, please leave" Izumi's sentence wasn't a request it was an order.
"As you wish" said the Nomu doing as he was ordered.
"FUCK!" shouted Izumi once her door a sealed shut her flames erupting before she fell onto her bed tears born from anger and self-loathing leaked from her eyes "I'm still so weak"
After the capture and arrest of the hero Killer news stations not only in Japan but in every country across the world spoke of the hero killer and his chilling speech. Some stations demonized the villain, others hosted heated debates, but all spoke of the new raise in vigilanteism and even villains claiming to champion the hero killer's ideals. It was these villains that resulted in the presence of Izumi Midoriya flanked by Kurogiri and Himiko Toga their current business was a meeting set up by the greenette's informant Ibiki. The meeting was a pair of individuals seeking to join those that where associated with the hero killer.
"This is the place Mistress" stated Kurogiri as they arrived at one of the several warehouses Izumi used for her meeting with Ibiki.
"Then lets meet the recruits" said Izumi her voice modulated by her mask but for those that knew her would tell the emotionless almost automatic way the daughter of AFO spoke. Entering the trio saw a pair of individuals in the warehouse. One was a boy a few years younger then the two teenaged villains with light brown hair dressed in a middle school uniform and from how dirty and damaged it was Izumi took a guess that the child had likely ran away from home, next was a tall man with a lizard mutation with a mane of light purple hair.
"Greetings Gentlemen" greeted Izumi as she approached the duo the younger boy looked at the group with indifference while the lizard man quirked a brow.
"I take it your the one Ibiki connected us to." said the boy.
"He did, I'm Osore one of the ones in command of the league of villains, but from what Ibiki told me your here seeking a connection to Stain-sensei" said the girl.
"You say that with ease" said the older man.
"I do, Stain personally trained me" Osore stated.
"You claim too be a student of Stain, but do you have any proof of that?" he questioned.
"I don't, just my word. He would say there no point in acting unless your willing to do it without conviction" said the girl as she lowered her hood and removed her mask.
"Mistress!" Kurogiri said with caution.
"Calm down if I expect them to follow me, I have to show I'm willing to trust them." said Izumi as she looked the duo with crimson orbs. "I'll properly introduce myself. I'm Izumi Midoriya, age: fifteen, quirk: analysis and inferno" stated the teen waiting to see the reaction of the two recruits.
"I'm Kawahara Chieko, age: twelve, quirk: gas" said the younger teen. "I'll follow you Midoriya you seem to not be a complete idiot."
"Fine, I'm Shuichi Iguchi, but you can call me Spinner." the elder man stated after a moment of hesitation before bowing to the girl "You are the inheritor of his will."
"So this is who you have chosen to further your goals Izumi?" questioned the figure that was Hiashi Midoriya. Before the monitor that displayed the ancient villain was Izumi Midoriya flanking her on either side was the gothic teen Dabi and opposite of him was the small blond girl who's grin never left her face. Behind the trio stood the latest additions to Izumi's group; Shuichi and Kawahara who had both taken on the named Mustard and Spinner respectively.
"Yes, father" said the teen. "With them I'll see to it the heroes are purged of corruption and the committee."
"Very well, I expect much from you and Tomura but don't fail me" said the villainous father
"I do have a request for the mission that coming up in the next few weeks" stated the greenette. Hearing nothing from her father Izumi voiced her request. "I'd like the use of chainsaw"
"Very well, I'll have Dr. Garaki have it ready for the mission."
"Thank you, father" with this the monitor went dead with the youngest member of the group letting out a sigh of relief.
"That was you father?" questioned Kawahara as he looked to his leader.
"Yes" was all the greenette said as she turned to leave the room "Ibiki will have your requested equipment today at warehouse four, Toga you go with them" said the teen shutting the door behind her.
"Hm, Stain's pupil is intense" stated Shuichi with crossed arms.
"She's not normally like this, but she won't talk to me" said the blond with some concern
"It's not our business" said Kawahara..
"Ibiki won't wait forever get going" said the older teen heading for the same door Izumi went thru as he shared a look with Toga. To be fair both Toga and Dabi felt indifferent towards each other but they both admitted they cared about their leader.
Dabi caught up with Izumi as she was entering her bedroom. Striding up to the door he knocked on the door.
"Midoriya, open up we're gonna talk" Dabi stated with with a scowl at the door.
"Go away Dabi" Izumi ordered thru the door having changed with her casual clothes of a white dress shirt and a pair of cream colored slacks. "I'm not in the mood to deal with you" she said dismissively, she knew her two friends where worried but she didn't want them seeing her at her lowest her vulnerabilities she worked hard to keep hidden.
"Yeah not going that!" said the arsonist and then the door flew open as Dabi kicked the door open breaking the lock. "We're talking regardless if you want to or not" he said flatly.
"Dabi!" shouted the greenette with wide eyes surprised by him kicking in her door.
"Okay Midoriya spill why have you been distant" said the boy as her shut the door closed behind him.
"I haven't, I've been busy!" Izumi said defensively.
"That I have no doubt about but its also an excuse."
"Oh then tell me Sherlock what do you think it is then!" Izumi sassed with both her hands on her hips as she glared at Dabi.
"Stain" Dabi said flatly.
"Dabi, don't!" Izumi said in a warning tone.
"Why not, I get it you wish you had done something different to help him" said Dabi stepping closer to the girl.
"How would you know what its like!" he girl snapped small flames sparking in and out from her anger.
"Shoto and my mother are my fault" said Dabi with narrowed eyes. "If I had stayed, if I hadn't run away…" he stopped his hand touching the lower half of her head what should have been had his lower jaw. "Maybe I could have stopped it before it got to that point, as a big brother I've failed. My weakness enabled Endeavour.
"I…I can't, I can't be weak!" said the greenette continuing to glare at Dabi. "I have to be better!" said the girl. Izumi's eyes widened with surprise when the often Aloof and sarcastic goth pulled her towards him and wrapped her in a tight hug.
"Then be strong out there but right now you don't need to be anyone but yourself" said Dabi.
"Da- thank you, Touya" Izumi whispered and she held onto Dabi
"Shigiraki, you wanted to talk about something? Questioned Izumi as she entered a part of the bar that was used as storage. Izumi was dressed in her casual clothing and stopped when she took note that her rival wasn't alone but had a group of various villains with him five in total she took note of several members that stood first was the dead pool wannabe she was familiar with the man as she had worked with the man on occasion in her early days next was a man dressed up like a gimp and lastly and a person who's presence made the heiress narrow her eyes, he was a large ash blond with a disfigured face the man was Muscular who's claim too fame was the murder of the hero couple the water horses.
"What is this?" Izumi asked with a cold tone.
"Aw Izumi don't be so cold/show respect brat!" shouted the dual personalities of Twice whose statement made the girl roll her eyes.
"Izumi meet my league of villain" said Shigiraki holding his arms out in a grand gesture.
"Don't talk like the league is yours, it belongs to Sensei and they only make up a portion of our forces"
"Your just going to let this child speak to you like this?" demanded Muscular
"I'd watch your tone Muscular, your new and need to remember your place" Izumi cautioned the older man with crossed arms.
"hm, I like her" said the large person that Izumi didn't think much of but was surprised to find that they where a female. She was large with red hair and dressed casually in a crew neck and jeans.
"For those of you unaware, I'm Izumi Midoriya and like Shigiraki here the master's right hand and you'll mind that unless you want too be burned" the girl threatened with her activating analysis to make her eyes light up as an emphasis on her threat. "moving on, I'm assuming you want me too include them in my plans involving UA?"
"Yes, I do" said Shigiraki.
"Hm, very well but-" Izumi pausing to point directly at muscular and the gimp "You'll make sure they have a short leash if you don't I'll have no need for them" said the teen before turning around "You have a week too get them ready and Dabi will be leading the mission" said the girl.
"You understand your goals Dabi?" questioned Izumi as she stood in a room with Tomura, Kurogiri and Hiashi(via a TV monitor).
"Yes, capture the selected targets, eliminate fakes, and return." stated the arsonist. "afterwards Kurogiri will split us up and deliver the subjects to the facility in Kamino, others will be taken to the bar to serve their purposes"
"correct" stated Kurogiri
Dabi would step out of Kurogiri's wrap gate with Toga, Spinner, mustard and Shigiraki's followers.
"So what is the plan?/spit it out punk!?" said Twice as he came walking up to the designated leader of the mission.
"For now we sit tight and observe, Shigiraki's attack on the USJ failed cause he under estimated the enemies and placed anyone but all might below his notice." Dabi stated placing his hands in his pockets. "We can't afford that reckless." He could hear the grumbling among Shigiraki's minions.
"I knew there was a reason she delegated this to you" said Mustard that despite being a rude brat Dabi could tell this was a compliment.
"Twice, I'd like you to make copies of an animal and use them to scout out the area. We need to know the path ways they've cleared out and also where to best deploy Mustard's gas and my flames." ordered the arsonist.
"YES, SIR!/slave driver!" replied Twice and went to do as he was told.
"The rest of you should get comfortable, your confined to this spot unless told otherwise" Dabi stated "Especially you two" Dabi continued as he eyed the large thug and gimp-like villain.
"Fucking hell!?" growled Muscular as he glared at goth.
"You heard me"
he villains rested and chatted among themselves. Dabi toke note that the groups more or less got magne and Twice getting along well with both Toga and Spinner.
The following day Twice would return to Dabi with what he found and told him about how the students had been training and several in the evening where being tutored by the UA teachers among them was one of the targets of the attack.
"Toga, Muscular, Magne, Spinner!" Dabi called out as it was approaching sun set. "You lot will be our advanced recon. "Get to your locations and remain hidden till you see the signal" he ordered "Mustard go with Twice's copy to your location, Twice your with me" ordered Dabi. "The rest of you will wait here till the attack begins" with his orders distributed the Villains began putting on their support gear that Izumi had secured them all, he opted to ignore Toga's complaints about her gear.
"This the place?" Mustard questioned the copy Twice had made of Dabi.
"Yes, the original will radio you when it's time, but remember-"
"Paralysis or sleeping poison I know!" Mustard interrupted as he watched the copy walk off into the woods leaving the young teen to his own devices. "Midoriya seems to have thought up a very in depth plan with he punk" said the kid as he drew his revolver from a holster on the inside of his uniform jacket. "Time to see how these so called UA students stack up to my genius!" stated the boy when signal came over his radio. Miasma! The boy began to release his gas extending the gas too it's absolute limit to effect as many of the students as possible.
"Good, he's rather quick" said Dabi as he placed his hand upon the trunk of a tree to begin the inferno they would need to limit the hero's and student's movements.
"oh boy! It's show time!/BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!" Twice announced getting a side glace from the aloof villain.
"Looks like it's time to begin!" said Magne as they activate their quick to take hold of the blonde cat themed pro hero who's eye's widened in shock and horror before Mange's weapon smacked her into the dirt!
"Pixie-bob!" shouted the only other female pro in the clearing as she and the other pro Tiger stood between the villains and the students.
"I say we put down this sorry excuse for a hero now!" sneered Magne.
"not so fast sister Magne, we must judge them by the ideals of Stain." said the lizard man. Spinner seeing the heroes ready themself to attack grinned. "Don't think we're the only threats here!" exclaimed Spinner as what sounded like several power tools began to be revved up turning they saw the large towering figure of a Nomu with weapons like drills, jack hammers and chain saws protruding from several limbs. "Has anyone seen Kota!?" called out a student. Getting negatives his eyes trailed up towards the mountains.
A young Boy dressed in a crew neck and shorts was sanding on the cliff of his secret hideout seeing the gas and blue flames down in the forest below.
"Hey there Kiddo" said a deep and ominous voice behind the boy. Turning around he saw a massively large man with a tan tarp and a white mask covering his face. "That's a neat cap you got! How about we trade?" asked the man when Kota attempted to bolt Muscular tsk'd and leaped to cut off the boy's only route of escape and as he did the boy see the man's unmasked face, a face he knew all to well. And this man was the one who killed his parents!.
"Kendo!" shouted a gray haired student of class 1-B as with several other came running up to another group of 1-B being lead by a red head and rotund student. "Here take these!" the gray haired student said and he handed gas masks off to the other group.
"Thanks Tetsutetsu!" thanked the red head as she took a moment to finally breath.
"where did you get these?" asked the rotund student.
"it's thanks to Yaorozu from 1-A she made these with her quirk." explained Tetsutetsu. "Glad your both alright, Kendo, Shoda!"
"So what now, should me make a run for the camp?" asked Kendo.
"You can if you want, but I'm gonna go give the guy causing this a fat lip!" announced Tetsutetsu as he activated his quirk encasing one of his arms in steel!
"Are you serious!?" asked Kendo.
"It's not a bad idea" said Shoda. "While everyone here can get out safely we still have 1-A and the rest of 1-B out there" Shoda rationalized. "Dealing with the gas at it's source will help use get everyone out safely!"
"Ugh fine I'll come also!" said Kendo before turning to the other students telling them to go and get to the camp.
"C'mere brat!" growled Muscular as he made to make a swing at the small child who's eyes welled up with tears.
"No you don't!" shouted a teen's voice voice as a glowing fist slammed into the large man sending him flying to the stone surface!
"You alright Kota?" questioned a teen boy he had shoulder length red hair dressed in a pair of jeans a white crew neck and a also wore a pair of fingerless gloves small sparks of energy coursing over his two arms
"uh yeah" replied he child who jumped as the villain could be heard chuckling.
"You call that a punch!" said Muscular dismissively as he stood up from the wall a manic grin on his face.
"This isn't good" hissed the red head as he stood his ground glaring at the large man.
"Damn you have the same eyes as that bitch" hissed the large man "Those eyes piss me off!" said the man as his arms began too ripple with stands of muscle sinew bursting from his skin doubling the mass of his arms. "I'm going to enjoy killing you!" said the man. As the fight would begin further up on the mountain Ibiki dressed in a black trench coat turtle neck and slacks watched the ongoing fight.
"Now I see why she offered to pay me triple for keeping an eye on this operation" stated the scared man as he retrieved his cell phone from his pocket.
"We need to get back to camp, half and half!" shouted the aggressive blond that was Katsuki Bakugo.
"On that we're in agreement" stated Shoto Todoroki as they sprinted along the path to try and make it back to the camp.
"Such pretty flesh" said a voice none to subtly up ahead making the two teens slow down to a stop and what they saw made both their eyes widen… before them was the villain Moonfish he was squatting over a corpse… the body who had multiple limbs and a masked face this was once the 1-A student Mezo Shoji! "Such deliciously pretty flesh, but have job to do" said Moonfish as the straitened himself and turned to face the two students "Oh~ more pretty flesh!"
