Here we are 3 years later. That's right. As of November 26, 2022, this story has officially become THREE YEARS OLD! Wow! Amazing right? I will admit I thought we'd be further along than this but hey at least we're still going. Thank you all for another amazing year. You guys are the real reason I'm able to write and update as I do. So please I hope you're all willing to come along for another fantastic ride this year.
*BR-FACT* - Ditto is a cool one! His first name was literally Clone. Clone has the same meaning in both English and Portuguese. So, he was renamed as "Idem"! And this's cool, because they have a saying, when someone says that they want to be part of something. Something like: "I hate the winter." and the other one says: "Me 'Idem'!" So, it is a form of saying "Me Too."

[FLASHBACK]
Mandalay is speaking to him just in front of the lodge. She had just tried to air her concern about his behavior, but he snapped back about how unfair it was for him to be here with heroes.
But she tried to reassure him, to help him understand that someday his view will be different. "Trust me, Kota. It will happen. You'll meet someone, and you'll finally understand why we do what we do."
He turns away, tilting his hat over his eyes, not wanting to hear this.
But she's not offended, instead she offers him a sympathetic smile. "Someone who'll risk their life, put others first. Someone who will be…"
[End of FLASHBACK]
It makes him mad just thinking about it. "No one like that really exists."
But before he can really let that reality sink in, the scent of smoke snaps him out from his brooding.
Worried, Kota looks out over the valley, and he sees it all: azure flames, stacks of black smoke, and a cloud of purple mist has the entire forest entrapped.
He has no clue what's happening? Or what's going on? And what was Mandalay's Telepathic message talking about? Villains? He-he doesn't understand. What's it supposed to mean?!
As Kota watches out over the burning forest, a massive figure stomps their way up the cliffside. Their cloak billows in the wind as he towers over the defenseless child from behind.
Ch.71 My Hero
Using Telepathy, Mandalay calls out in a panic. {"Kota! Kota! I hope you can hear my voice. Hurry up and come back to camp! I'm sorry, I can't come to you! I don't know where you're always running off to! Forgive me. Just get back home, fast!"}
Kota would like to do nothing more than to run back and hide in his bed. Stuff his pillow over his head while buried in warmth and soft sheets. But his feet won't move. His heart is racing even though it feels like his lungs are gonna cave in on themselves. Like the grim reaper himself has struck the child down with paralyzing fear.
And like the grim reaper, a white masked figure of massive stature and disguised in a black-cloak towers over the boy. "I came up here scouting for a nice vantage point, and here I find someone who's not on our list."
Even from behind the mask, Kota can sense the chilling grin on the man's face, like a wolf finding itself a lost rabbit.
"By the way, nice hat, kid. I like it. Why don't you trade me for this lame mask, huh?" The massive grim reaper points at his own mask. "They made me wear it 'cause I'm new." He grabs the mask, unlatching it from its place and slowly pulls it off. "Said they couldn't get a shipment of the good ones in time."
"Y-WAAAaah!" Kota yelps, scurrying away in a panic.
"Ah, well." The massive grim reaper rips away the mask, tossing it aside, before zipping up and around the kid, cutting off his past with unbelievable speed.
"Wah!" Kota yelps, horrified.
The man's bare arm stretches out from the cloak, fleshy veins sprout out from his wrists and joints, encasing his entire arm in fleshy muscle fibers. "I think you and me should have some fun up here, kid. Ready?!" The man's murderous grin can be seen from under the billowing cloak.
Kota nearly collapses in shock as the cloak rips away revealing the monster's true expression. He knows that face. It's the same face he sees when he closes his eyes. When he thinks about his parents. It's the face he sees when he thinks of…death.
[FLASHBACK]
["Water Hose."] The announcer on the TV speaks cordially, almost without emotion as they deliver the day's news. ["Two heroes sharing one name. But this couple's bright future was cut short. Ended by one criminal's heinous actions. A truly tragic story."]
It was a dark afternoon, with Kota hidden away, alone in the living room, brooding while the TV plays overhead.
["The villain in question is still at large, though police and heroes are on his trail, hoping to apprehend him soon. The suspect is extremely dangerous and has a power-up Quirk."]
A mugshot of the villain pops onto the screen, revealing an extremely muscular man set wide with short, spiky, and sandy blond hair with small black eyes. The bottom text reads: Goto Imasuji A.K.A. Muscular still at large.
["If you see this face, contact the police immediately. Do not approach him."]
[End of FLASHBACK]
"It's you." Kota's in tears as that news caster's voice still plays in his head.
["Additionally, the suspect sustained a major injury to his left eye during his fight with Water Hose…"]
Muscular's cloak flies away. And Kota's eyes are instantly drawn to the large scar, the one left by his parents, going across the left side of the villain's face.
"P-Papa! Mama!"
Muscular's prosthetic eye shines like fire, as he takes a swing at the defenseless child with his overly powered up fist.
Kota shuts his eyes, crumbling to the ground. Knowing that…nobody's gonna save him.
But then something sharp and warm grazes his neck, grabbing onto his collar before hauling him away just as Muscular's fist smashes the ground in a burst of shattered rock.
Kota is flung away, dropped to the ground before a hairy snarling beast with no eyes and matted orange fur. "What-what are-..." He stops spotting the recognizable Omnitrix adorning the beast's fur. "It's-it's you?! What are you doing?!"
Wildmutt gives the kid a look, one that says that he's here for him. But then he turns away, snarling at the surprised villain in deadly warning. "Grrrrr!"
Muscular stares at the beast in confusion like he's not sure what that faceless animal even is. "Huh. What the hell are you supposed to be? I don't recognize you from our list."
Wildmutt makes a point to put himself between Kota and the villain. His gills flaring, ignoring the smoke and far off foul mist in the distance. Right now, all his attention is focused on the villain, Kota, and the sheer cliffside hanging over the forest.
He was able to sense how fast this villain could be just by the lingering scent trail alone. So, running away isn't an option. Or at least not for him…
"Grrrrrrr!" Plus, he tried to hurt-...murder a child. He can't let that stand, not ever!
A thrilled grin stretches across Muscular's face. He knows a challenge when he sees one and being challenged by a wild monster is definitely an enticing thought.
Katsuki Bakugou lets out a frustrated grunt while holding hand over mouth. "Damnit."
He and Shoto have been marching through the purple-misted forest for a while now and they have yet to run into anybody, friend or foe.
Shoto Todoroki is much calmer although the heavy air and unknowns of the situation is seeping in, keeping him alert while carrying an unconscious Kosei Tsuburaba of Class B, who appears to be in agony due to the foul-smelling mist. "There must be some sort of gas villain out here. I'm worried about the others who're still in the forest. But I don't see that there's much we can do now."
He thinks back to how the heroine, Ragdoll, surprised them back at the checkpoint earlier. Where they grabbed the now long forgotten tag that they were requested to grab. "Hopefully, Ragdoll can take care of everyone else."
"Don't tell me what to do Icy-"
They both stop, spotting a figure on the path ahead, hunched over with their back towards them.
"Crap. Who's that?" Bakugou eyes the figure, they're wearing some twisted black straitjacket outfit but that's not what catches his eye. No, it's the hand and small puddle of blood sitting at the intruder's knees. "Hey. Which group was in front of us again?"
Shoto sees the severed hand too. "Tokoyami, I think and Shoji."
Then that means the severed hand at the figure's knees…is one of theirs.
"So pretty." The villain chokes out a nasty gargle. "No-have to work. C-can't." The villain forces himself away from the severed hand, like someone ripping themselves away from a buffet. "But it's so delicious, beautiful flesh. Don't tempt me." He finally turns around to reveal his hooded face, with only a port revealing his jaws which are pulled open by tortuous braces. "I have a job to do."
Bakugou grins but it's more of a facade to hide away just how freaked out he truly is. "No fighting, is that the rule?"
Within the clearing, Spinner charges Mandalay with his Frankenstein Monster of a great sword. "You fake heroes only care about yourselves and your glory! We'll purge you from this world!"
But it's a swing and a miss as Mandalay displays some awesome acrobatics, flips back and away.
As she lands, she activates her Quirk, speaking directly into the attacking Spinner's mind. {"Spinner even though you're a villain, you're still pretty cool. Totally my type."}
"Uh-!" Spinner freezes in mid-swing, his green scaled face turning pink, blushing.
With him frozen, Mandalay easily slips in close to strike. "Are you really blushing? How cute!" She claws at his midsection just as he snaps out of it.
He mitigates the blow by moving with the slash. "That was a dirty trick to pull. Don't toy with me, cat!"
Before Mandalay can retaliate, a fuchsia aura surrounds her and rockets her away towards the waiting Magne.
"Over here, my little kitten." Magne uses his Magnetism Quirk to pull her in with his metal bar ready, while Pixie-Bob lies unconscious at his feet.
Mandalay can't break free of the hold, she's moving too fast, she's gonna be taken out just like her friend!
Not unless Tiger has anything to say about it. Coming in and punching Magne's bar away at the last second, breaking the spell. "I won't let you use the same trick twice!"
Mandalay falls to the ground as Magne's Quirk breaks.
And with Magne's concentration broken, Tiger goes in for a Cat Punch! But the villain easily dodges and soon it becomes a boxing match with Tiger throwing punch after punch only for Magne to sidestep and avoid each one. "Kenji Hikiishi. Villain name, Magne! Wanted for nine counts of aggravated robbery, three murders, and 29 attempted murders!" Tiger roars before delivering a devastating uppercut!
But with both hands Magne catches his fist, holding it back with surprising strength. "Ooh, does that mean I'm famous?" Magne teases while pulling fist down.
"What the hell did you come here for, criminal?!"
"Tiger!" Mandalay shouts over while keeping Spinner at bay. "Something's wrong! I still haven't heard from Ragdoll. It isn't like her not to report!"
Tiger's stunned, what could that mean?
But Magne is thrilled by the news. "Uh-oh, I wonder what happened to her."
Within the dark forest sits a stone altar. It was nothing more than decoration to fit in with the Test of Courage. Where Ragdoll would meet the students and hand them tags with their names on them.
But Ragdoll is nowhere in sight. Tags are strewn across the alter and ground with splashes of crimson blood staining its top.
All the while a massive figure of various limbs and a large stature stomps away, their tail and tendrils swaying behind them, wrapped around their bloodied prize.
"What are you saying?!" Tiger roars, fearing the worst for his teammate. "What do you know?! Answer me! Just how many of you are there?!"
But Magne just smiles on, adorning the fact he knows far more than the already clueless heroes.
Unlike Iida who is still unsure of what route to take. 'What do we do?!' Iida and the others like Mineta, Koda, and Ojiro are still there unsure of what to do and waiting for Iida to make a decision. But he's still reeling in confusion and shock after seeing Midoriya run off with little to no explanation. 'Midoriya ran off! But I can't just leave him. And the others? I can't leave them behind either to search for one can I?" He's unsure of what to do. Should they go after Midoriya? Or should they escape themselves?
But soon the decision isn't his anymore as Mandalay makes it for him. "Iida! What are you still doing here?! Run!"
"But Midoriya! He-"
"I know but there's nothing we can do!" She dives out of the way of Spinner's giant blade. "Get the others back first and let Eraser know what's happening! Can you do that?!"
Iida hesitates to answer but having an authority figure making the call for him easily sways his mind. Although perhaps he can go out on his own and find Midoriya after leading the others to safety first. "R-right! Everyone, we need to move quickly!"
Mineta's ready to get going, terrified of the villains. "Lead the way, Class Rep!"
Fearing for their lives they run off as quickly as they can back towards the main trail.
Magne sees this and tries to interfere with his Magnetism but with Tiger cutting him off there's no way he can concentrate. "Oh, darn!"
Iida leads them all away quickly, hoping to make it back to the lodge and maybe send out reinforcements.
*PEW-PEW-PEW-PEW-PEW!*
A cascade of red lasers scorch the ground, cutting off the kids' path, and forcing them to stop.
"Waah! Mineta nearly runs headfirst into the laser fire only for Iida to grab him and yank him back. "What now?!"
Ojiro follows the laser fire and throws a finger upward. "Up there!"
Out from the scorched canopy, a slick purple cladded figure comes crashing down. Their jetpack slowing their descent right before they crash onto the ground in a hard superhero landing pose.
Iida's heart plummets, eyes wide in shock as a sense of cold recognition washes over him. "No. Not you."
The figure slowly rises its armored arms reforming from blasters into a set of razor-sharp claws.
"That's impossible!"
Magne can't help but grin at Iida's horrified reaction. "It's about time you showed up! One of them got away thanks to you!"
SevenSeven turns to face the teens and the ongoing battle, flexing his claws letting them all know he means business. "Eerv aredh fo einbg shafoiabyln etal?"
A stunned Iida stumbles back, arms outstretched trying to hold Kota and Ojiro back as well. "It-it's is you…"
Ojiro looks to the Class Rep in shock. "Iida you know him?!"
He never takes his eyes off the purple-clad assassin, his mind racing with how deadly SixSix had been. "He was there. At Hosu. But I had no idea he was with the League of Villain! The Hero Killer kill–...fought him. I-I thought-"
"Ysea istkeam." The armor on SevenSeven's left claw reforms, morphing into a wide arm blaster. "Ym rrohteb nda i okol a tlo lakei."
While fighting Spinner, Mandalay spots the newest villain, and her worry worsens. "Tiger! The kids!"
Tiger turns away from Magne to look. "Who is that?!"
Before Tiger can make a move, Magne is the one to cut him off. "Did you really think they'd send only two of us to deal with pro heroes?" He turns to call out to the kiddies. "Listen up darlings! Say hello to our dear acquaintance, SevenSeven! He came highly recommended, I'll have ya know! Not much of a talker though."
Iida stops, confused, is this not the same assassin. "SevenSeven…?"
SevenSeven interrupts him with a dialogue of incomprehensible growls and gurgles. "Tno'd uyo tge ti? Uyo'er ealngid with het tetsal odlem!" He then draws his arm-blaster at the kids and fires.
He unleashes a rapid fire of laser bolts upon the teens, who dive out of the way at the last second as the burning bullets of plasma race through the air, nearly hitting the pro heroes and his own allies.
Spinner uses his giant blade as a shield against the incoming laser bolts. "Hey! Friendly fire! Friendly fire!"
But SevenSeven doesn't heed his warning, instead bringing in his second arm-blaster into the mix. "Ym dba! Tgo na tihcy ggrriet gnerfi!"
"Grrrrr!" Wildmutt stands his ground, making sure he shields Kota from the villain's murderous gaze.
"What the hell are you supposed to be? Some kind of mutant bear?" Muscular frowns finding himself weirded out by the strange looking dog. "What? Did one of the hero brats not want to leave their puppy at home?"
"Grrrrr!" Wildmutt lowers his head, fangs bared, while his fur stands on end.
Despite the clear aggression, Muscular couldn't be bothered to find any of it intimidating. "You think you're some kind of guard dog do ya? You know what? How about I put you down like the dog you are?!" Muscular fibers begin to spread across his left arm. "But first, a little torment. Show me your blood!" With blinding agility and force, Muscular launches himself at the pair, and takes a swing aiming to crush their skulls with one blow!
Sensing the incoming blow, Wildmutt can only throw up his arm in an attempt to block it. The force of the punch is too great, launching him right off his feet and smashing him right into the cliffside.
"Whoopsie!" Muscular laughs. "Oh, yeah. Hey. Maybe you can help me out a little bit first. A bloodhound like you ought to be good at sniffing out kids, right? I still have a job to do, after all."
With a shake of his head, Wildmutt rids himself of rock and rubble before pausing at Muscular's statement. He's after someone? "Grrrrr! Ragh!" A growl and a show of fangs is enough to get the answer across.
"That's a no then? Well, if you're gonna be useless." Muscle fibers coat his arm again and he moves to put the mutt down. "Then I'll just turn you into a throne rug!"
"Raagh!" Wildmutt dodges the fist allowing it to smash the ground before leaping up and slashing at Muscular's arm, tearing away the muscle fibers.
Muscular pauses, actually having been caught off guard by the beast's defiance. Staring at the torn flesh like it was a rare occurrence for him.
"Grrrr! Rawr!" Wildmutt remains hunched down ready to tear off more of Muscular's flesh.
Muscular stares at the beast before spotting the hour-glass symbol. "That symbol." He grins as the muscle fibers reform. "Don't tell me you belong to that Midoriya brat?!" Letting his bloodlust lead him on, Muscular rushes in once again.
And even though Wildmutt can't technically see, he can tell that Muscular's moving with blinding speed, delivering a powerful strike to his side before he even knows what's up.
Wildmutt goes down but manages to swiftly pull away just as Muscular's fist comes crashing down again. With his fist lodged in the ground, Wildmutt jumps up latching himself to Muscular's hide.
"Raaaagh!" With a roar Wildmutt viciously chomps away at the villain's arms, tearing away the fibers like taffy.
Despite having his own flesh torn away, Muscular couldn't be more thrilled. "Still got some fight in ya? Let's change that. Show me your blood!"
He turns the tables, grabbing Wildmutt by the gills and throwing him down, smashing him so hard against the ground it cracks and fissures.
"Rggggh!" Wildmutt lets out a yelp before a cackling Muscular delivers blow after blow to the dog's head.
Kota can only watch on in horror as the wannabe-hero's head gets bashed into the ground over and over. Terrified beyond belief he can't bring himself to move, his legs are frozen, glued in place with his heart beating so fast it feels like it's going to explode.
His heart stops as Muscular kicks Wildmutt so hard he's sent flying across the platform and crashes into the cliff face with a horrible thunk.
"Rggh…" Wildmutt looks like he's been thrown into a meat grinder, blood seeping out from his gills and wounds, staining his matted fur and making it sticky with grim and dirt. His entire body shakes in searing pain, struggling to even get up and face the villain.
Muscular actually looks disappointed thinking the dog had more fight in him than that. "That was it? And here I thought I was in for some fun."
"Rhhhg…" Wildmutt collapses, head spinning while the taste of salty copper floods his maw. And as he collapses the Omnitrix too gives out, transforming the beast back into a beaten and bloodied boy.
Witnessing the red flash, Muscular is stumped. "What the hell? So, you were a student?" He stares blinking down at the kid with green hair matted with blood, bruised arms, and dirtied black and green hoodie. "It's you." An excited grin stretches across his murderous face. "You really are a freaking shapeshifter." Looks like Shigaraki wasn't kidding, guess he should have paid more attention during the briefing.
Izuku can't hear a word he's saying, blood is leaking from his forehead, his head is spinning, possibly suffering some broken bones and his ears are running feeling like a bomb just exploded in his ears.
"What a let down!" Muscular laughs finding this both amusing and disappointing. "Out of everyone on the list I wanted a go at you the most!" His grin falls away becoming a nasty angry scowl. "But instead of bringing out your fire powered guy or that four-fisted form, you give me a stupid mutt?! Come on kid. Give me a real fight! I wanna see you squirm after I demolish your strongest fighter!"
Izuku can't hear a word he's saying. Even through his blood-stained locks he can see, albeit in a haze, Muscular's mouth is moving but the ringing in his ears prevent him from making anything out. The ringing is so piercing that it feels like his ears are gonna bleed. All he can do is endure it while struggling to get up, staring on as Muscular marches towards him.
Then and only then does the ringing subside enough to hear what Muscle has to say. "-I have a job to do. But no one said I can't play with ya first!"
Panicking, realizing he's about to attack, Izuku throws himself to the side with a sudden burst of adrenaline, and just in time as Muscular smashes the ground. Acting fast and remembering his old tricks, Izuku snatches up some loose dirt and immediately throws it right into the villain's face.
"Gaaah!" Blinded, Muscular swats for him but misses as Izuku falls and scurries away from the flailing villain.
With the villain temporarily debilitated, Izuku rushes over to the frozen Kota, shaking him as he grabs him by the shoulders. "Are you okay?!"
Kota jumps, startled, blinking up at Izuku in utter disbelief like he's been snapped out of a horrid trance.
"Hey-hey!" Izuku tries to sooth him, hurriedly as he's worried that Muscular's gonna be back in action soon. "Look-look at me." He holds the kid, letting him settle until he finally locks eyes with him. And despite the situation Izuku does his best to seem confident, self-assured as he tells the boy with as much ease and comfort that he can muster. "Everything will be okay."
Kota flinches, blinking.
But Izuku doesn't falter nor react, instead he makes a promise. "Because I am here." He slowly lets the boy go and turns around to face the recovered villain. "I'll save you!"
Muscular scowls, having just wiped away the last of the dirt out of his eyes. "Save him? Bleh, you really are a wannabe hero. Always spitting on about justice. Don't you know none of that matters?! All that matters is raw strength!" With a boisterous roar Muscular lunges for the innocent duo.
Like a feline protecting its cub, Izuku snatches the boy up and jumps out of the way at the last nanosecond. "Kota run!" As they fall Izuku throws Kota ahead before he himself rolls to a stop, willing to throw himself at the villain to slow him down. "Run, Kota!"
But Kota's too petrified to move, tears streaming out his eyes.
"What the hell was that?!" Muscular howls as he goes in for another strike. "Fight me, dammit!"
"I'm not trying to fight you!" Even as he tries to dive out of the way, Izuku quickly glances over at the petrified boy. 'I'm trying to save him!'
Unfortunately, he doesn't move fast enough as Muscular's fist manages to land, striking the teen in the torso and knocking him away.
As Izuku collapses again, Muscular can't help but find this all so lacking. "You're a fucking disappointment. I wanted to see you bleed, but this is pathetic! Maybe I'll have better luck with the others on our list."
Even with his head spinning, Izuku was able to pick up on that. 'L-list…?'
"I know. Why don't you tell me where they are? I bet that kid with the Explosions will put up a good fight or how 'bout that chick with the crazy space Quirk? Where are they hiding?"
Izuku immediately goes on high alert, eyes snapping wide in shock and dread. 'Kacchan?! Uraraka?! They're-they're after them?!' With a burst of adrenaline Izuku launches himself back to his feet. 'What's he want with them?!'
The much faster Muscular strikes first, and Izuku is barely able to avoid the hit, but the power is so strong that he gets caught in the shockwave that explodes out from Muscular's fist. As an explosion of rubble, rock, and dirt knocks Izuku off his feet again.
Muscular grins down at the teen, knowing full well that there's nothing he can do to fight back. "What was it you said? That everything would be, okay? How's that working out for ya?!"
Not good. Actually, that's an understatement, and Izuku knows it. 'That muscle Quirk of his is too powerful. I need a plan. If I worry about Bakugou and Uraraka right now, I'm dead.' Izuku knows he has to fight; he needs to last until the Omnitrix is recharged. 'I have to focus on the enemy in front of me!'
He readies his left fist and takes a swing. With Muscular underestimating him he takes a shot for his good eye, hoping to blind the villain. But as his left fist is caught in the villains' crushing grip, he knows all hope is lost.
"What?" Muscular chuckles. "Is that seriously all you got?" His hand squeezes down on the boy's arm causing it to crack under the pressure. "My Quirk increases my speed and strength so exponentially that my muscle fibers can't even be contained by my skin." As he states this, muscle fibers sprout out from his skin and begin to coat his arms in a set of thick fleshy gauntlets. "I know I'm bragging a bit. But I mean, c'mon! I guess what I'm trying to say is… You're nothing when compared to me!"
Izuku, fearing for his life, pulls and claws at the villains grip to no avail.
"I can't help but laugh at you, kid! You really think you're a hero, don't you?!" With a roar he crushes Izuku's left arm, snapping it like a twig.
"AAAAAHHHHH!" Izuku lets out a bloodcurdling wail, he can feel the bones in his arm snapping away, his hand crushing in on itself as it feels like his arms being burned alive while hundreds of stitches are being ripped out from his skin.
As he cries in agony Muscular lets him go allowing him to collapse to his feet with a horribly mutilated arm.
Muscular basks in the kid's pain, reveling in it like the only joy in the world is the ability to harm others. To watch them crumble under his strength. To watch as the light in their eyes fade to nothing but despair. "How are you gonna save him, huh?! Don't make promises you can't keep! Live up to your words or they don't mean anything!"
He peers down at the pathetic hero observing his messed-up forearm and how black, bruised and bloodied it is with the bone offset from within his own skin. The kid looks utterly and totally pathetic. Defeated. With his stained hoodie, blood matted hair, and crippled limb. The only thing seemingly in one piece is the weird metal watch strapped to his left wrist.
"You're no hero-you're just a fraud." He raises his muscle fiber coated fist into the air, raising it up like a giant meaty hammer; one that will strike down the final nail to the teen's coffin. "And you'll die that way!"
But before Muscular can finish him, a rock pelts him in the back of the head giving him pause. Peering back, he sees the brat standing there with snot and tears running down his furious face.
"Remember, Water Hose?" Kota chokes back a sob but fails tearing up even more as terror and grief grip him tight. "My mom…and my dad. Did you torment the two of them, too? Before you killed them?"
As Kota calls the villain out, Izuku panics, fighting through the searing agony coursing through his arm, in order to get up. Before it's too late!
"Huh? Seriously? Those losers were your parents?" A cruel malicious grin stretches across Muscular's face. "Well then, this must be fate. The Water Hose heroes, they're the reason I have an artificial eye in my left socket right now." He gestures to said eye, with its twisted macabre metal outline and design.
Kota trembles before the monster's gaze, desperate for answers. Desperate to know why it had to be them. Desperate for it all to make some kind of sense. "T-this is all your fault. Nothing in the world is right anymore and it's because of crazy people like you!"
"Little kids are always so quick to say it's someone else's fault." There's no sympathy to be found in Muscular's voice. No hint or trace of compassion or regret. Those concepts are foreign to him, never once having crossed his mind. "Don't get the wrong idea. It's not like I took them out 'cause I was mad about the eye thing. I wanted to kill people, it's as simple as that. And those two tried to stop me." He can still remember the feeling of their warm blood stained against his knuckles. The damage he wrought. The crunch of their bones. It was thrilling. "What happened was the result of all of us doing our best. The real travesty is promising to do something you aren't able to do! THAT'S WHY YOUR DEAR OLD MOMMY AND DADDY DIED!"
Kota cries out, fearing for his life as the villain lunges for him.
"You ruined his life, and you won't take the blame?!" Izuku suddenly grabs onto Muscular's fibers from behind, holding tight with his only working hand. "How dare you?!"
"What's your next move?!" Muscular swiftly bats him away, knocking him away like he's nothing. "You can't hurt me!" With a roar the villain chases after the annoying teen.
Izuku wants to scream from the pain, but he bites his lips and rolls the landing before springing back up and charging right back in without a care for his own safety. "It's not a matter of whether or not I can do it!" Upon his declaration the Omnitrix lights up, shining brightly upon his busted arm.
Kota jolts up in shock, Izuku's words striking him hard as a blinding green glow overtakes the sprinting teen.
"A hero's job is to risk his life, to turn his promises into a reality!" Mid sprint, Izuku slaps the Omnitrix, not giving it a second thought despite the pain and the risk. Vanishing away in a blinding flood of neon green.
Muscular hesitates, blinded by the light. 'What? What's with this light?!'
And from within the illuminating veil of green a deep-almost monstrous growl roars out with the might of a thundering mountain. "SMAAASH!"
A huge explosion of power smashes into the cliff top, causing the ground to explode in a geyser of rubble and earth, shaking the entire cliffside as it does and generating a devastating whirlwind.
The whirlwind sweeps Kota right off his feet, propelling off his feet and over the cliff's edge. "Aaahh!" Pure terror chokes Kota's heart as he finds the ground vanishes from underneath him leaving him plummeting to his death. "WAAAaaah-!"
He stops, hitting something muscular and fleshy. His heart stops for a moment thinking Muscular grabbed him out form the air, but…as he rubs his hands against the massive arm, he notes the sensation of rubbing his hands over smoothed-out sandpaper, cold yet smooth much like tough scales.
"Wah!" Finally prying his eyes open the boy yelps, finding himself suspended high over the mangled canopy and hard forest floor. But what really has him shaken is the giant hand holding him in the air. It's massive to the point he can sit in it if he wanted to. With giant meaty fingers that are tough yet gentle to the touch; coated in bronze-painted scales.
"GOTCHA. SORRY ABOUT THAT." A rumbling deep voice takes relief as the massive arm pulls the boy back onto the clifftop.
As he's brought around Kota is blown away by what greets him.
Gone is the plain faced teen with messy green hair and annoying freckles; now here stands a twelve-foot-tall DINOSAUR! It's a humanoid with giant bulky arms that are so long they nearly touch the ground, legs so thick yet stumpy they look like scaly tree stumps, and a thick sweeping tail that could crush a man if not careful. Big broad shoulders frame the dinosaur's body while propping up an almost comically small-sauropod head.
The hulking dinosaur stands tall, slowly swinging his head around towards a newly formed crater in the cliffside. Rubble having caved in at the center, entombing Muscular inside. "EVEN IF HE HAD TWO EYES, I BET HE STILL WOULDN'T HAVE SAW THIS COMING."
The transformed Deku's impressed by his new form's strength and stature. It's strong. He can feel the weight behind every movement almost like he could crush a car if he just stepped on it. And even though his broken arm transferred into this new form he can still feel just how muscular this alien is.
But he can figure out this alien later, right now he has to get Kota back to the lodge before anymore villains arrive. "LET'S GET BACK TO CAMP. IT'S NOT FAR."
The crater entombing Muscular explodes open, as the villain rises out like an undead monstrosity.
'NO WAY. IT CAN'T BE. HE WAS ABLE TO TANK THAT?!'
"Ugh." Muscular rolls his shoulder and arms as ribbons of muscle fibers dance off his flesh like licks of flames. His shirt's been ripped away as did his prosthetic eye, leaving a massive hole in his face. "Heh! Now that's more like it! You were holding out on me. What?! Was I not worthy of your power?" With a maddening grin the villain stomps forth, showing no hesitation despite marching right towards a living titan lizard. "Or are you seriously that weak?!"
"STAY AWAY!"
"Naw, attacking sounds more fun."
Not good. This guy's like a tank; he can dish out hits and take them no problem. Worst of all he's fast and has no qualms about killing. Deku can't risk letting Kota run off on his own, this alien can't be that fast in comparison. If Muscular goes after an unattended Kota there'll be nothing he can do.
All he can do is buy sometime until he can figure out a little more about what this alien is capable of. "TELL ME. WHY HAVE YOU COME HERE?! WHAT DOES THE LEAGUE WANT FROM US?!"
"Doesn't matter to me, I'm just glad they finally let me off the leash. Long as I get to use my Quirk all I want; I really don't care." Muscular reaches into his pocket and drags out another prosthetic eye. "Remember what I told you earlier? We've just been playing around. Having fun. Until now. Now, I'm serious! Recess is over. I'm coming at you for real!" He lodges the faux eye into his socket, revealing a metallic frame encasing a ruby eye glowing with bloodlust. "Cause truth be told, you're pretty strong. I see that now."
It's no use. Muscular's strength and speed are too much especially when out in the open here atop the cliff top. Peering back the giant dinosaur eyes the canopy below and thinks that perhaps it's time for a change of scenery.
"Show me exactly what you're MADE OF!" Muscular roars, lunging for the dinosaur like a psychotic savage!
"HOLD TIGHT." The transformed Deku warns Kota, holding him closer to his chest before he throws himself right off the cliff's edge!
"Raaagh!" Muscular misses, his fist smashing the ground so hard the rubble shoots off the edge as the side of the cliff crumbles upon impact.
The giant dinosaur shields Kota with his body as they plummet, crashing through the canopy and landing on the ground with an earth-shaking impact. Hitting the ground hard that a whirlwind rips through the forest, clearing away nearby leaves and loose rooted brushes, leaving a decent sized clearing upon the area of impact.
Deku's both relieved and grateful that his gamble worked, looks like this alien is pretty sturdy. But he pays that no mind, peering up as rubble and rock rain down.
'IT'S LIKE HIS QUIRK HAS BEEN SUPERCHARGED. IT'S COMPLETELY INSANE.' He scans down at himself and at his own muscular build. 'BUT SO IS AM I.'
Well things are about to get a whole lot crazier as Muscular follows them down, leaping off the cliff top with a metaphorical fire in his metallic eye. "Running away?! We're just getting started! HAHAHA!"
Deku braces himself for the fight, wincing in pain as he tries and fails to move his left arm. Even as an alien it's still nastily bruised and bloodied, with the bone still out of place.
"You heroes always handicap yourselves!" Muscular howls through the whipping wind, reeling his fist back to deliver one hell of a finishing blow. "How do you expect to win one busted arm and the other cradling a WORTHLESS KID-!?"
"LIKE THIS!"
*SLAM!* With a twist of his body and a swing of his massive tail, the behemoth hammers Muscular into the mountainside like a giant fly swatter.
As he pulls his tail away, a satisfied grin stretches across the dinosaur's face until an enraged Muscular pries himself out from the rubble. "Like I said: how do you expect to win?"
'THIS GUY'S RELENTLESS!' The transformed Deku steps back and recalls; how indeed? He can't let Kota run away on his own; he's too much of an easy target. And this alien probably isn't fast enough to lead the villain back to Mr. Aizawa. Heck even if he could run, he's too exhausted from today's training to keep a steady pace. So, he can't run. He certainly can't hide. And thus, there's only one option left to him. "HOW DO I EXPECT TO WIN?" It's more of a statement to himself then it is to the villain, sounding like the start to a self-made vow. "BECAUSE I HAVE A REASON TO FIGHT. BUT YOU-YOU'RE A ONE NOTE PSYCHO WITH TWISTED DELUSIONS OF HOW THE WORLD WORKS." His busted left arm tightens painfully as his fingers squeeze against his agonizing palm. "YOU THINK THAT BECAUSE OF YOUR POWER. THE ONE GIFTED TO YOU AT BIRTH, THAT CONSEQUENCES MEAN NOTHING! THAT THE WORLD IS NOTHING MORE THAN YOUR PLAYPEN! WELL, I'M HERE TO CORRECT THAT."
Despite the pain, despite the agony, and the desire to cry out the hulking dinosaur muscles up his broken left arm. He fights through it all the sensation of his blood vessels burning while his already bruised flesh worsens and darkens even more with leaks of blood. But despite all that he manages to grip Kota, freeing his only working arm, while keeping the boy close to his chest. Willing to use his own broken body to shield him.
And thus, the twelve-foot dino unleashes a thundering roar of agony and might. "I'M GONNA STOP YOU IN THE NAME OF EVERYONE YOU'VE EVER HURT! I WILL PUT-" With a crushing stomp the aliened Deku crashes towards the villain. "-AN END TO YOUR RAMPAGE!"
Muscular accepts the challenge, charging right at the stampeding dinosaur with a maddening grin. "You really think you can protect him?!" He lunges reaching his muscle-fibred claws right for the innocent boy.
"Ahhh!" Kota shoves his face into Deku's chest, not willing to look.
"RAAAAGH!" The giant knocks the villain away, landing a solid punch to his side.
Muscular goes down but gets right back up and diving out of the way as the dinosaur tries to smash him with his giant foot. Again and again, he stomps but Muscular just barely avoids them before lashing out and striking the dinosaur's thick hide. With a spin the alien swings his arm and bashes his fist into the villain's side. And this goes on and on with them each exchanging blows while evading or blocking incoming strikes.
After the alien bats him away with his tail, Muscular digs his fingers into the ground, scaring the ground as he slides to a stop. Only to immediately leap right back into action. "I'm gonna rip your ribs out and use 'em to stab your eyes out!"
"LIKE I'D LET YOU?!" With his busted arm still holding Kota the transformed Deku whirls his body round as hard as he can, aiming to crush the villain with a final swing of his tail.
But Muscular sees the attack coming, planting himself and bracing for impact. *WHAM!* He catches the tail in a bone crushing hold with his fibers flaring up. "I'm gonna skin you alive! Hahahaha!"
With a maddening cackle Muscular hauls, the twelve-foot alien around and tosses him around, launching right into the woods.
"AAH!" He folds in on himself, making sure to shield Kota as he crashes through the unsuspecting trees. The trees explode into splinters as their trunks gauge into the behemoth's scaly flesh. Causing waves of pain to shoot up through his already broken arm. "AAAAAHHH!"
All the while Kota lets out a terrified shriek of his own. "Aaaaah!"
"Hahahaha!" Muscular leaps after them, sprinting through the woody debris and earth like a rampaging bull. "You're dead!"
Acting fast Deku leaps up and grabs the nearest weapon, a downed tree. And with a swing of this 2-foot-thick oak, he bats Muscular away like he's a speeding softball. "YOU'RE OUT!"
Muscular begs to differ. Even as he skids and crashes against the ground a psychotic grin stays plastered to his face; his muscular fibers acting as shock absorption mats protecting him from the impacts. "Hahaha! Now this is what I've been dying for!" With unlikely acrobatics and speed, he catches himself and beelines it right back towards the dinosaur. "Show me more!"
"RAAAGH!" The transformed Deku takes another swing of his twenty-foot bat.
But unlike before, Muscular's fist smashes straight through the thick tree. "Show me more blood!" Rather than aiming for the dinosaur himself he aims for his precious cargo.
With one hand on the kid, and the other still in the air the dinosaur has one choice but to throw his head down, delivering a solid headbutt that throws the villain back. "YOU KEEP AWAY FROM HIM!"
"Then make me!" His muscle fibers spiral and coil around his fist turning it into a thick fleshy whip. "It's not like you can stop me!"
The giant alien manages to catch his incoming strike, gripping it tight as he leans in and growls. "YES I CAN. YAAAAHH!" With a roar, he flings Muscular around and gives him a taste of his own medicine. Throwing him so hard that he goes crashing through the thicket of branches and bark.
And boy did it do some damage as Muscular's fibers actually got ripped apart leaving him with a variety, albeit mild, scrapes and cuts. He licks the side of lips, lapping up the tiniest bit of blood. Only to act like it was an addictive drug, getting him high on bloodlust as he charges right back in for more.
"LET'S SEE YOU GET THROUGH THIS!" Sweeping his tail into the earth the alien summons forth a crashing wave of earth and rubble; in an attempt to entrap and maybe blind the villain again.
"Easy! Come on!" Like a missile, Muscular breaks through the incoming landslide with ease. "I can take more than that!" He chases through the other side landing just below the unguarded behemoth. "But can you?"
With a cruel grin Muscular practically stabs his fist into the dinosaur's lower left side, just between his stomach and kidney.
"RAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Deku howls in pain at such volume that Kota has to cover his ears, although it didn't break the skin the blow sent a sharp burning sensation up his spine and limbs. "GRRRR!" Fighting back the pain the dinosaur tries to retaliate by swinging his fist down in a hammer punch.
But this time, it's Muscular's turn to catch the incoming fist. Catching it as it slams down into his shoulder even as the ground underneath him crumbles and sinks. "You're big. But you really don't know how to throw your weight around." His fingers claw into the dinosaur's scales as his muscle fibers' tighten. "Compared to me you're NOTHING!"
In another impressive feat of strength, he gives the massive alien a throw, this time towards the cliff.
"Waaaah!" Kota howls in terror as his wannabe rescuer gets thrown into the cliff. Hitting it hard causing it to shake and rumble as a sharp-pain spikes through his broken arm making it feel like thousands of needles are tearing away at each cell.
Muscular pounces, his tongue out as if tasting the blood in the air while fibers of flesh dance off his hide like wisps of flames. "When I'm done with you, they'll think you were a fossil!"
The downed dinosaur just barely rolls out of the way, hauling himself quickly as Muscular crashes into the cliff causing it to shake.
"AND YOU'RE A SAVAGE!" The behemoth delivers a devastating punch into Muscular's backside, smashing him into the cliff even more. As he does the rock face gives out from above; causing a rockslide that comes crashing down and burying the villain alive.
"Raaagh!" A muffled shout echoes from within the rocky tomb, as the rocks and earth shift against Muscular's thrashing.
"STAY DOWN!" Deku quickly presses down on the rubble, trying his best to keep the villain down.
But it's no good. His legs are far too exhausted after training and the fight. His left arm is shaking as the burning pain flares with every movement. And blood is still leaking from his head due to the villain's earlier blows. Speaking of which, he's shown no signs of slowing down. With every hit and cut this murder rises again, his Quirk keeping him in the fight.
Whereas Deku can't keep this up for much longer.
"KOTA, RUN!" Seeing no other options the alien drops his left arm, lowering it slowly despite the fact he just wants to let go due to all that pain. But he holds on, stretching it out and dropping Kota away from the struggling giants.
As he's dropped to the ground, Kota stumbles and falls. His entire body quivers as his little heart beats a thousand times per second. "Y-you're attacking him a-again?" He stares back in disbelief, tears just barely pricking at his eyes. "You can't do that! Let's just go! Come on!" His heart stops as Muscular's fiber-coated claw breaks out from its tomb. "You've barely hurt him earlier, remember? Besides, your arm is busted up! And you're hurt! And-"
"IT'S GOING TO BE FINE." The wannabe hero promises, doing his best to give off an air of confidence and security.
But that air turns sour as Muscular breaks free of his prison. "Oh, is it?!" He lunges, not for the hero, but for the kid.
However, he doesn't get far as the dinosaur catches him by the leg and hauls him right back!
*WHAM!* With a thundering crash Muscular is thrown right back into the cliff.
Kota loses breath, petrified as the murderer jumps right back in.
"OKAY. IT'LL ALL BE OKAY!" The transformed Deku promises as he and Muscular exchange blows. Their fists clashing in midair to thundering results. "I WILL NOT LET HIM GET PAST ME!" With a roar he charges the villain only for Muscular to catch him and the two grapple and struggle to push the other back. "KOTA, RUN!"
But he can't. He's petrified.
"GO NOOOW!"
"Still looking after him?!" Muscular side steps out of the way, causing the hero to lose his balance. As he nearly falls over the villain leaps up and behind the dinosaur and puts him into a headlock. "Oh, man! You're somethin' else, aren't you?!" He squeezes with everything he's got. His arms are like a pair of car crushers, entrapping his neck into a bone crushing deathgrip.
"SHUT UP, DAMMIT!" Like a dinosaur he thrashes about trying to fling him off. He reaches back to grab him but this alien's not that limber. And with Muscular closing up his windpipe it's hard to fight back as the villain bats his hands away.
All he can do is thrash about like a twelve-foot bull. But his body is drained and each flail of his arms and body are only draining his already depleted stamina. His moments begin to slow, his breathing becoming heavy and labored, and his vision begins to darken.
Tears pool at Kota's eyes making his vision clouded. "But why…?!" He sobs, watching uselessly as the weakening giant's strength slowly fades.
Muscular pulls tighter, yanking on the dinosaur's neck so hard that the skin stretches to its furthest point. His bloodlust drives him insane; he can almost envision the geyser of blood that'll explode out after he rips the beast's head off. "Show. Me. You're. BLOOD!"
He can't fight back. His lungs are collapsing just as his arms give away, falling to his sides. His legs give out and the dinosaur's hide crashes into the cliff. And yet the villain never let's go, blocking off his windpipe completely as his bones begin to crack.
His consciousness begins to fade, his vision going dark. 'MOM…DAD, FORGIVE ME… I TRIED MY BEST.' He can't even bring himself to speak as everything, even his broken arm and bleeding head, goes cold. 'I'M SORRY…EVERYONE.'
"I'M GONNA TEAR YOUR HEAD OFF!" A cruel sociopathic grin stretches across his face giving him the appearance of a fleshy gargoyle as he whispers into the dinosaur's ear. "And the kid's next."
And with that Deku's vision goes dark and everything falls to silence…
*SPLASH.*
A gush of pressurized water rains down on the transformed Deku's face. Giving him enough stimulus to reawaken.
He's not the only one taken back, even Muscular is confused by the sudden blast of water. "What the? Is that water?"
"S-s-stop." Kota chokes, his hands outstretched and ripping with water while tears soak his face. "LET HIM GOOO!" The boy screams, begging for mercy before the murderous villain.
The giant hears the boy's cry. "KO…TA?" Something within him sparks, like a tiny flame has just been reignited.
"Hold on, there, 'kay? I'll kill you after I'm done with-" The dinosaur's flesh pushes back against his arms, threatening to break his grip as his neck seemingly expands. 'Crap! I was distracted.'
The villain tries to hold tight, tries to choke him out but he's actually struggling to hold the dinosaur back.
As his body rumbles and quakes Deku is able to take the smallest of breaths but it's just enough to reawaken his flame. "I WON'T LET YOU HURT KOTA!"
Kota's splash of water was more like a splash of gasoline to his spiritual flame. Igniting it beyond what it was meant to be. Spilling out in the form of his body expanding beyond what it should be capable of.
But what's most bizarre is how his features are slowly becoming more pronounced, with the plates on his shoulders and arms separate giving him a more ferocious look. While a bony crest takes hold of his forehead, stegosaurian-like plates begin to protrude from his spin.
Muscular's arms can't even reach around the dinosaur's neck anymore. He's so stunned and in disbelief that he barely resists as the towering behemoth flings him off. "DAMMIT! How are you getting stronger?!"
"YOU WON'T LAY A HAND ON HIMMM!" The 60-foot goliath roars, his howl rips through the valley and rattles the canopy. And even though his arm is still broken and limp at his size his sheer stature and weight more than compensates for the weakness. Even his tail is a threat, demonstrated by how it crashes through the trees with ease as the goliath takes an earth-shaking step forward.
Muscular's usual thrill and murderous intent is gone, replaced with a burning fear. His instincts force him to leap out of the way just as the ten-ton goliath's fist comes crashing down onto the earth like a meteor.
His own insanity is his downfall as a frustrated Muscular tries to fight back. Leaping up at the giant only to smacked right out of the air like a pesky fly. *WHAM!* He hits the ground with a splat, his muscle fibers nearly ripping apart from the sheer power of the impacts.
"Raaagh!" He howls in pain, in genuine pain before his muscle fibers reform around him. As the 60-foot giant turns back to him the villain spots the innocent child still rooted in place.
Thinking that a hostage is the way to go, Muscular rushes for the boy. But he doesn't make it close at all as the dinosaur's heavy foot squashes him into the ground.
"YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN STEP ON EVERYONE? DON'T YOU?!" The building-sized dinosaur booms, crushing the villain under all his weight.
"GAAAAH!" Muscular howls as all that weight comes bearing down on him. His Quirk is just barely able to keep his organs from becoming jelly under the alien's strength.
With one arm free he's able to rip himself out from under the giant's foot, but many of the fibers that were covering his hide are ripped away, left pinned under the goliath's foot.
"You're All. WEEEAAAKKK!" Muscular's lost all rhyme or reason, lashing out like a rabid dog that needs to be put down. "YOU'RE ALL NOTHING COMPARED TO ME!"
A crack of the tail is enough to put him down, flinging him back so fast one might think he was shot out of a cannon.
"YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S NOTHING!" The dinosaur charges as Muscular crashes into the cliff.
The cliff shakes with each one of the giant's steps before nearly crumbling away as the humongous hero digs his entire hand into the bottom of the cliff next to the downed savage. Burying it in place with his palm open like he's grabbing a chunk of piled up snow.
"MURDERERS LIKE YOU-" He swings his giant-sized arm upwards, ripping out a semi-truck of earth right out from the cliff. And with astounding strength he throws it straight into the air with a thunderous roar. "-SHOULD ALL GO EXTINCT!"
As he lies beneath, even Muscular is in awe of the hero's presence. Of his size. Of his power. He can only watch as the earth itself comes crashing down upon him. And the impossibly sized dinosaur's roar rattles said earth as he declares his Uravity-inspired Special Move. "EXTINCTION!"
The giant chunk of rock and earth plummets down like a meteor from the heavens. Like a thunderbolt from the gods the meteor crashes into the villain with such force it explodes upon impact. Releasing a brilliant display of power and might before the backdrop of azure flames and a star filled sky.
Kota falls off his feet just from the shockwave. He's left in shock-n-awe before the villain's godly defeat. And yet it feels like a dream, or rather like he's waking from a long nightmare that he's been forced to endure for a never-ending night. "Why?"
That's his only question. It was the same question he asked after his parents were taken from him. And yet he knows the answer as it was the answer given to him by Mandalay herself all that time ago: "'Kota. Your Mom and Dad, the Water Hose Heroes. It's true that they ended up leaving you behind in this world. But they saved so many lives through their sacrifice, you'll see that someday."'
Tears blind him but he's too stubborn to let them fall, desperate to fight them back. "Why did you risk your life?"
He has to wonder. As the 60-foot giant keels over, gasping for air, and the memory Mandalay's words continue in his head. "'You'll meet someone, and then you'll understand why we do this."'
He sobs. "E-Even though…you don't k-know me at all. Wh-why did you try to sa-save m-e?"
"'Someone who will risk their life."'
The dinosaur slowly rises, his scared muscles rippling under the starry night.
"'Someone who'll be…'"
'…a hero.' Kota gives in. His heart finally letting the grief go as the tears he's long held back finally can flow like gentle streams.
The humongous victor raises his head to the sky and lets out a roar for the entire planet to hear. Letting them all know that there is one less menace to this world.
'My Hero.'
I really hope it was worth the long wait. Because we got it! We got Muscular vs. Deku. or rather Muscular vs. HUMUNGOUSAUR! I've been dying to do this exact fight for THREE YEARS now! Seriously, I've had this specific fight between Humongousaur and Muscular for 3 years! And I finally got to show it off! WOOOOOOOOO!
Again. As of November 26, 2022, this story has officially become THREE YEARS OLD! Wow! Amazing right? I will admit I thought we'd be further along than this but hey at least we're still going. Thank you all for another amazing year. You guys are the real reason I'm able to write and update as I do. So please I hope you're all willing to come along for another fantastic ride this year.
Hopefully I can keep the momentum going. But we'll see I still have to finish Pokémon Scarlet. And I'm gonna be running around all weekend soooo I probably won't be ready for next week. I'll keep you posted. Might have to cut the next chapter in half just to ensure an on-time update.
*Muscular is alive. Just wanted to make that clear before you all assume that Izuku just killed a man.
**ARTWORK** New Artwork from our favorite Voidv25! And it's one I've been wanting to share with you guys for a while. Meet "Kraab" over on Voidv25's Deviant Art page.
If you've been wondering what he looks like ever since he got his new body, now is the time to find out!
*Fanfic is undergoing some maintenance issues. Mainly that every 90-days or so everyone's account will reset and the "E-mail Notification" or "Email Opt-in" will be turned off.

Responses for "Guest" reviewers from Ch.70:
Atom king: It's is time the league of villains has started their attacks on the camp with everyone unprepared for it they at an disadvantage plus Kota is at his hiding spot but I get the feeling he's not alone I hope Izuku can there in time, with the villains possibly using alien tech to jammed the signals so no can call for back up it will up to crab to find the jamming device all while everyone is fighting for lives.
I really hope this will lead towards the moment when everyone finds out the truth about everything especially if Vilgax is going to be involved in the attack in some way.
I do hope that events play out differently too especially with who loses their powers to all for one.
Guardian-Sigil: Well it has begun. And sure enough Izuku got there just in time, albeit barely. Just a heads up but this arc is gonna be a slow build, updating wise as I might do shorter and shorter chapters in order to update sooner
Guest: Ahh was looking forward to the muscular fight haha, this was entertaining still though, I look forward to next week.
I see you're talking about modifying some the electrical Aliens to differentiate them from eachover, I have some suggestions if you don't mind.
Ampfibian: this is actually a canon ability he has that was only used once, but he has the ability to read minds, so perhaps you could lean into that a bit more? He also has the power to go intangible aswell.
FrankenStrike: he's actually quite a powerhouse considering how little he appears, one of his appearances he's punching apart mechadons that gave Rath trouble. Perhaps you could do the more electricity his conductors on his back absorb the more physically stronger he gets?
BuzzShock: already has cloning ability.
ShockSquatch: Static Sense was a cool ability I like that idea.
FeedBack: no changes needed
BrainStorm: already has insane IQ so you might not need to add anything at all, maybe you could make it so he could levitate things like he's seen doing occasionally in UAF
Guardian-Sigil: Sorry about the wait. And I know the chapter wasn't that long. But how was the Muscular vs. Deku fight? I hope it was everything you wanted and then some
I do remember Ampfibian reading minds but I kinda wanna do something more with him. Something different. But I have had this idea of giving Brainstorm a version of that ability
Again it'll be a while till any of them appear so we have time to BRAINSTORM some ideas.
Hahaha! See what I did there?
Guest: OP, considering that since this version's Star and Stripe(Cathleen Bates) lives in Bellwood, could you mention her middle name as Tennyson? Just as a quick reference.
Guardian-Sigil: Well not sure if people have a name like Tennyson as a middle name? I mean if anything maybe make her middle name Gwen, right? But in any case I don't wanna directly refer to Ben, Gwen, or Grandpa Max. Since I am using elements of their characters for other characters already
Grimm: Will you put the predators that were not used in Omniverse designed by Tnperkins (original series designer) for when you enter the Nemetrix? And will you assign them an alien if it is the case?
Guardian-Sigil: Possibly. I have not given much thought as of yet since that's sooooo far off. But that will probably what I do along with using other predatory monsters/aliens from other franchises: Star Wars, DnD, Star Trek, whatever.
Atom king (again): So this has been on my mind for a while when the truth about aliens, the plumbers, vilgax and the Omnitrix come out, I'm curious about everyone reactions towards it I can see some like Momo, Kirishima and Tokoyami accepting it while others could hate it or be uneasy about it like Iida and Tsu who at this point in time believe in the system so finding out that izuku is quirkless and using alien tech to be hero would have them question everything they know.
will their attitude towards Izuku change because of the truth and dislike him, or in time change their mind and accept it?
I can see a lot of drama happening and I do like drama.
Guardian-Sigil: I am not gonna answer this. Not because I hate the question or anything. In fact I love it. But because that is WAY TOO SPOILERY for my liking
All I can say is…staaaay tuuuned~
Ruby34: I would love to read where Izuku kills some of the villains and the ones who survive see Izuku not going to hold back now and he went WAYBIG and smashed them.
Guardian-Sigil: Well for now this chapter's probably gonna be the closest to that. Although Muscular isn't dead
26skaramaga: So are you planning on using Odd Future in the next chapter?
Guardian-Sigil: Well I usually wait for Drag0n5on to go ahead and write up an OP for me. I really like their interpretation. But they wait until we have ½ or maybe ¾ of an arc this way they understand where things are going and such.
Afterall I don;t want to spoil things for them either
Guest: Wawawawawawa
Por qué yo ya quería ver los capítulos reales de la trama.
Y si estoy llorando
Guardian-Sigil: Because you know it's gonna be good
DeadCool14: Finally things are getting into high gear, can't wait for what alien will show up at the Muscular fight, tho I can probably guess which, but then again I thought that the OV alien that you said would show up was Gutrot because of Mustard's gas so…
Fun Fact: Fantasmatico is also his name in the Latin American dub
I just realized, you missed a great opportunity to make a Rath joke. You could have had Rath do the "Did I just use up all my air" scene from Con of Rath by having him fight Tsuburaba and him encasing his head in a solid air bubble
Oh thermal vision would be great, maybe since he can perceive temperatures he's also able to manipulate it, which is why he can shoot fire and ice from his eyes. And maybe that could be why he sees Hagakure, since he can also shoot energy beams, so he could probably see people manipulating light to be invisible, or it could be the other way around
Would you also add Eye Guy to the Anur System? I know what the fandom say, but I just really feel like he belongs there. Sightra could have been inside the system when they activated the gravity field emitter that froze the system in place; I imagine that they weren't prosecuted, because of their appearance, but they still weren't very welcomed because they were outsiders, but eventually they're presence became normal and they officially became Anur citizens, they even developed a Corrodium immunity by adapting to it naturally and by using a medicine the other species created
No, I mean Horas as in the little squid dude from And Beyond, he's like the mascot of the Ink Tank XD
Are you gonna point out how Uraraka hasn't had a "move before you think" moment yet?
Will Deku say "Going Hero" at some point? Cuz that's also a good catchphrase
Will Deku have more relationships with people from Class B? Like he and Komori bond over puns and Kuroiro gets jealous, and they could also bond about how they get nervous around girls
Will there be a moment where Deku actually dies, but he's Shocksquatch and is able to restart his own heart?
Will you make Goop's anti-gravity projector be able to work from a short distance? Like for when scenes where goes under doors and stuff makes sense?
Do you dislike the Murk and Perk Upchuck thing for the story or in general?
Will you change Toepick slightly? Like I like him, but I do think his name is misleading, he's more scary than gross, will you do something with that?
When the Vreedles show up, will they get killed off more often? Because I honestly feel like they should have made that more of a running gag
Have you seen TheOdd1sOut's Netflix show Oddballs? Cuz there are some good jokes in there you could use
Since you've seen the first two parts of JoJo, would you give Hisashi something similar to Hamon? Because with him being able to absorb fire, I assume he should be able to do something with that
Will we have Diamondhead's "What goes around, comes around" line?
Deku will surely bring up the MIB Gun Range incident several times to tease the others, right?
Would Big Chill be immune to Midnight's Somnambulist Quirk? Because it has been said that it works better on men than women, so it's tailored to one's gender, and Necrofriggians is asexual
Could Deku still get the Ultimatrix if it was very depowered? Like he couldn't remove the Evolutionary Function completely, so he can only go Ultimate for like 2 or 3 minutes and it drains all the energy to do so. Or would he at least keep the device but removes the Ultimate feature?
Would Zs'Skayr uses his more to screw with Deku more? Like making him use his powers involuntarily without being transformed? Turning invisible, phasing through the floor like early Danny Phantom?
Guardian-Sigil: I'm gonna do my best to respond to these but let's be real….you wrote waaaaaay to much. Anyway here we go.
1. Well there you have it! The Muscular vs. Deku or rather the Muscular vs. Humongousaur fight!
2. I know Ray Ethon explained that to me too.
3.I guess I did
4. Thermal vision is cool
5. Oh him. Maybe I'll use him or give him a cameo
6. "Move before you think" moment. I am aware of this but keep in mind Ochaco is not Deku
7. "Going Hero" is a fine catchphrase but It's Hero Time is more iconic. And the name of the story
8. Probability. But for now I wanna focus more on Class A with some moments for Class B like the planned fight for Tetsutetsu, Kendo, and Shinso
9. How could Deku die and yet Shocksquatch bring him back? Do you mean Shocksquatch passes out and then revives himself? If anything I'd want Denki to revive Izuku with Electricity first
10. IDK, probably
11. Dude stop bringing up the Upchuck shit. I don't dislike them or anything But I DON'T have any plans to dive into that. There's already a ton of concepts to adapt so some things. LIKE the Murks and Perks are gonna fall to the wayside. Imagine Upchuck switching between the two for all I care. It doesn't matter
12. I have no intentions of changing aliens' names. If that was the case then I would have done so already
13. I have answer for this but I'll let you find out for yourself
14. I tried watching the first episode and couldn't get into it
15. When did he absorb fire?
16. I mean anyone can use that line
17. Not really
18. He might be asexual but I don't think that matters really. I mean what if Big Chill is Bi? Or something? Wouldn't her Quirk work then? IDK
19. Maybe. I've been considering options but again as of now I rather he not have them
20. That depends on how I want his breakout to go
DeadCool14 (again): I can't wait to see the next Ghostfreak fights, with him being weak to light. And seriously, it's no big deal, it's an easy fix; I always had this theory that Zs'Skayr can't protect himself from light because he had a rare birth defect that didn't allow him to create one like other Ectonurites, and the one he had in Classic was made by the Omnitrix to turn him into the average version of an Ectonurite and protect him from the sun, but here it's just for to make him LOOK like an average Ectonurite and the second skin serves no real purpose until Deku gets an actual Ectonurite transformation
And I can't wait to see what else you do for other aliens, tho I myself think that Brainstorm doesn't need it, he's pretty balanced, he could just be the only one who can make shields
You could make some omakes of a beach episode or a date episode, just to get people of your back if you want, and seriously with the way you write I don't doubt that you could maybe combine the plot chapter with a date chapter, I mean they did it with Pier Pressure where we got Ship, and he was very important to help stop the Highbreed War, but I do understand how difficult it must be with everything you have to do. I myself am pretty neutral about it; I would love it if ships were involved, especially for when Michael and Kai appear for hilarious jealousy hijinks, but I wouldn't be mad if they didn't, it would just add another good thing to this already awesome story, but you do you, that's what matters
Do you watch the Ink Tank's Q&As? There's a lot of fun facts about 5YL in those
You missing the biggest opportunity of your life if you don't give Izuku a Sotoraggian transformation and call it Nine-Nine, not just for the naming convention you made for Deku but for Brooklyn Nine-Nine jokes
I think the Andromeda 5 could still show, like in a different version of the Aggregor storyline or just their individual stories, like I think it would be awesome if you did Andreas' Fault and either have Deku or Bakugou go off on Argit for caring more about the money than Andreas, which would be both great character development for Bakugou (and maybe even look back on his relationship with Deku) or just surprising to see Deku get so mad like that, and yeah we did see that with All Might, but I feel like this would be different
Would Shinso's Quirk not work on Wildvine and Swampfire because they're plants? Like in "Midnight Madness", where Sublimino couldn't brainwash Wildvine?
Would there be a chapter like "A Change of Face"? But instead of being Charmcaster it's just a random villain, which would maybe make Deku and Ochako question their powers, like with Deku's lightning being green instead of pink and Uraraka getting like Gravattack
Would Vilgax actually care about his people like in UAF? Or would he be just a tyrant?
Will you give Bullfrag the Incurseans' weakness to very powerful smells?
Are you gonna use the Wild Villains and the Volcano Thieves from MHA: Clash! Heroes Battle?
If you were to do Heroes United, would the Generator Rex universe be the same, or would it be combined with another anime as well?
When Deku gets Brainstorm, if he fought Kaminari, would he make his brain short-circuit by using his advanced vocabulary?
Would Astrodactyl be better fit for space travel instead of Jetray?
Will Frankenstrike keep his intelligence? Because in the Classic series he had super intelligence as one of his powers, Ben 10,000 even used him to make Kenny's Omnitrix along with Grey Matter and Upgrade, but in OV he's just punchy electricity guy
What do you think of the fact that, in canon, Ben can actually turn into a dolphin and a white lab mice because they're intelligent enough to be transformation? That's from the original continuity btw, here's proof: wiki/Ben_10_Planet?
Do you think that Inko and Mitsuki knew each other before Deku and Bakugou were born, like they've been friends since middle school, or they met because of their kids?
Would Bakugou's hero name stay the same or would it change to: "Dynamight Hero: Ground Zero"? Because, while many people don't like it, it's an amazing way to show his character development; to be more like All Might and that being a hero is not all about fighting villains
Will MorOtesi have something to do with Chromastone's backstory? That is his homeworld btw, it's from the game Vigax Attacks
Would you use The Stalker in the story? The giant robot from the Videogame episode in Ultimate Alien
Would another character use UAF Vilgax's equipment? Like his armor, his sword, that laser gun he always had but never used, the Ruby Ray of Rouleau and the Shield of Seagle? Because while UAF Vilgax isn't as awesome as his Classic self, I at least thought he was neat and his gadgets were cool
Does One-One have a connection to Six-Six and Seven-Seven?
Guardian-Sigil:
21. I get it people didn't like that weakness. But I have no intention of fixing it because I like the Kryptonite-like weakness. It forces characters to think smarter when they have limits
22. I guess we'll see
23. That would do the opposite. If I do a date episode it'll get more demands from people
24. No I did not watch Ink Tank's Q&A
25. I am well aware of that fact. And it does pop into my head. But I'm gonna wait. If I make Deku into the same alien as other characters then there is a risk of overshadowing that character. It's the same reason Ben never turned into an Anodite
26. The Andromeda 5 could. I might use their characters separately but again it won't be the same impact as Deku already has 2 of them
27. IDK
28. I have no plans for a "Change of Face" chapter
29. I have plans for Vilgax and I rather not share it here
30. Bullfrag is weak to smells? How? Frogs breathe through their skin? I mean sunlight and the cold make more sense
31. The Wild and Volcano villains have been considered. And I do have ideas for them BUT for something else. As in not for this story. I'm gonna do something different maybe one day
32. IDK
33. Probabily
34. No because Jetray evolved for that exact purpose
35. Yes
36. I gues that's cool. But not as cool as a walking fishman or an alien grey frog
37. Yes
38. I like the name Dynamight But IDK if I will have him change his name yet. The idea has been on my mind since he introduced his name in the manga
39. Maybe
40. Never played the video game
41. IDK maybe
42. No
Sorry for short answers but like I said you wrote waaaaaaaaay too much. Don't get me wrong I love long reviews but like…this was something else
Guest: In the words of Robert Downey Junior "is it better to be feared or respected and I tell you is it too much to ask for both?", look, I'm the guy who made the comment about the can of pepper spray for izuku. Okay yeah I get it. He now has a shield and a blaster and the omnitrix. I get that, but now check this out, what if the blaster gets damaged or gets snatch/knock away from his hands? What if the shield receives such a strong impact that it shattered? and what if the omnitrix is currently in red during either/both of those?, When I made that comment my train of thought was "what's worse? to have something and not need it or not to have it at all, which one?", that was my train of thought, and I think it's pretty good actually, it was just a suggestion folks, chill.
Guardian-Sigil: Thank you. It's not a bad idea at all and I never meant for this to drag on as it did. Pepper Spray is not bad and let's say yes Deku can have it. But I rather focus on his other gear. Thank you for sharing though
Jesson: I'm glad you liked the suggestion about that vulture that I mentioned, so actually I'm going to give you another suggestion, how about a Gila monster 1 of the only 2 lizards in the world that are poisonous, actually if you liked it about the "special" animals, here are some more(One thing, for the record that the animals that I am suggesting, I am suggesting either to become mutant animals or to be used for animal nomus):
hirsuta or the "yeti crab".
hog (do you have any idea of the problem those are in texas? they are a great option).
.
Snapping Turtle.
scorpion (Basically a scorpion, honestly I don't know of any species of scorpion that has anything interesting other than this one, that is a blue colored scorpion)
And about the animals that are going to appear in the next episode, well I'm not really sure, but bats see well in the dark And it's night So I'm going to guess and say the mutant Bat from Ben 10 season 4
Guardian-Sigil: Again very cool animals
Guest: When will Rad Dudesman return to call in his favor from Deku.
Guardian-Sigil: IDK. I will have it happen but not sure when to put it yet
Dreadbot: I like this chapter I can't wait to see where you go next please keep writing
Guardian-Sigil: Soooo was it worth the wait?
DeadCool14 (again again): And yes you've mentioned that your version of Ledgerdomain will be different from canon, but I would still watch it because it's just so damn well done and the way it explains and expands on the things we already is incredible
I just think that it would be neat if Lucky Girl showed up lol. And she could be Gwen, but she's Japanese instead, like with Henzu
Can you do an opening that has everyone playing laser tag later on please? Just like the one from that episode of The Flash watch?vC1EBIkcfK68, but Deku just schools everyone?
Will you do this? watch?v5U5ClQSmplo lol
Would the Galactic Enforcers appear in the Deku 9,000 future as hero students? I can see Tini being like the daughter of Looma and Mineta XD, and it would line up since she was very infatuated with Four Arms in the Classic Series
You should check out the TV Tropes page for MHA characters if you wanna learn some cool fun facts about them, like those things about Pixie-Bob I mentioned
/Characters/MyHeroAcademiaClass1B
Like for example: The reason why Tsuburaba(the Solid Air kid)'s eyes look the way they do is because of his fixation on Mt. Lady's chest, Setsuna used to be a Gal in middle school, and Manga Fukidashi's dream is to bring smiles to all children around the world
Would the encounter with Michael Morningstar be a one-off adventure like in canon, or would he stick around for a bit before he reveals his true self?
Fun Fact: Originally Ibara's hero name was Maria, as in the Virgin Mary, but she changed it to Vine later on, if you wanna use this for a joke, like she was forced to do it because it was a little too on the nose XD
When Deku gets Gutrot will he make fart jokes? Or is that where he draws the line?
I think that the universe recreation would be a great way for Deku to realize the kind of power he possesses, and maybe fixing some mistakes you've made, like calling ML-E's mom K-T instead of T8-M XD. But of course the way he does it should be different than how Ben did it
Do the Kryptonians and Saiyans from 5 Years Later exist in this universe? Not for them to show up later but just to know if they do or not, because they are such cool concepts
Guardian-Sigil:
43. Again no promises if I will use Ledgerdomain
44. No Gwen. No Max. No Ben. Since I am already using parts of their characters for others
45. Well I did use the laser tag thing as an Omake
46. You have to give me the title of the video because I get random watch commercials and I don't know if that's what you wanted
47. No they won't
48. Cool
49. You will have to wait and see
50. Maybe
51. How could he not?
52. Using a universal reset as a means of fixing the tiniest of mistakes sounds like a waste of time to me
53. Let's be clear. I have not read 5 YL
Jerson (again): hello it's me again, I misspelled my name in the previous comment, I wrote "Jesson" instead of "Jerson" and also parts of the text were cut, so I'm going to put it here, the other two animals I wanted to recommend were " wild hog" because of the problem they are in Texas and a "blue scorpion" which are basically a scorpion but blue in color, it's the most interesting scorpion i know
Guardian-Sigil: It happens
Metal Lizard: As the Monsters I say as Villain's for when Deku is not fighting any Aliens well whatever works for you and maybe some characters how are not monsters but are with the Monstrous Side who ether work them how some want a normal life like the Aliens and those who fight the Monsters that cause trouble I'll name three from each one
Mr. Link/Susan-Missing Link
Panda- Jujutsu Kaisen
Vee-The Owl House
Blade-Marvel
Ruby Rose-RWBY
Danny Phantom-Nickelodeon
and I read the BlitzWolfer By Night Swampfire-Thing/Moe was very Unique and I love this Character I would like see him later in the Canon I also wanted to say that Hisako from Killer Instinct is from a Video Game anyway now I hope that Deku goes Rath on Muscular because this arc is going to be crazy.
Guardian-Sigil: Thanks glad you liked Moe.
Also I did hint that the Secret Saturdays exist in this world in a previous chapter
Also please keep in mind that I am avoiding magic. Yes I can rework these to be Quirks but I just wanted that to be known
BlueRanger-Lyric: Wow, even though it was a pretty short chapter, it was interesting nonetheless, and I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next, especially the fight between Wildmutt and Muscular, and I'm also looking forward to said surprises that's yet to come, so keep up the good work, by the way, I saw the Kraab artwork, and now I finally get to see what his new body looks like, and I like it a lot, I can't wait to see what comes next!
Guardian-Sigil: I hope you liked Muscular vs. Wildmutt. Or at least the fight it was really building up to. MUSCULAR VS. HUMONGOUSOUR!
Alex: To "jetslinger333", would they even believe him? All For One definitely made a big impact when the world saw him, But All might and the others in his circle of trust kept him and everything else related to it a secret until before the "rescue Bakugou", currently the world doesn't know that All For One exists so if a super powerful but totally unknown villain, just shows up and starts talking about the aliens. I don't think most will believe him, besides, what kind of tactical benefit could that give him? the fact that the alien community is unknown is part of the reason why the league of villains and him can operate more freely on earth than Vilgax can (they can just create cover stories to deal with alien issues, but in the case of human issues on earth, they have to do it under earth law.), because the need to keep the secret in itself is what keeps the plumbers at bay, if he let out a secret like that, he would lose part of his advantage, and then he would have to worry about the heroes and the plumbers alike
Guardian-Sigil: You make a ton of points that I full heartedly agree with
Guest: Are you going to do a body swap story like in the episode 'A Change of Faces'. Because I think it would be although of fun. Also this chapter was awesome, keep up the good work.
Guardian-Sigil: I currently don't have no plans to do a body swap chapter.
Wendy: Hey, the job of doctor Kyudai Garaki is to create copies of the Quirks that he manages to get his hands on right? Could someone explain to me why Todoroki was not among the targets of the league of villains? I'm saying this because of his Quirk, being the son of Endeavor, it's easy to assume that his quirk must be powerful and even if it wasn't easy to assume, the sports festival is proof of that, why did the league of villains not try to capture him to take him to the doctor and thus make copies of his quirk? in the original story even after bakugo attacked, still shigaraki said not to kill him and they didn't do anything to him other than try to put him to sleep again, for all we know that's what they had planned for bakugou in canon in case he declined the offer, if they couldn't have him at least they would have copies of his Quirk
Guardian-Sigil: Who knows? Then again AFO did have Dabi in his custody soooo.
katha: i wonder if there are any new targets in this version of the story apart from bakugou, after all izuku has the omnitrix so it's easy to assume that they will go for him because of their deal with vilgax, also now they know about the plumbers, but the plumbers don't know that All For One and the league of villains know about them, if you think about it it makes sense that ochaco and mina are also targets, since it would be the perfect way to land their first blow against the plumbers, all without the need to reveal that they are aware Of them, nezu and thirteen would probably jump to the conclusion that they were targeted for being hero course students, not for being space cadets, they can harm the plumbers discreetly
Guardian-Sigil: Well it appears Muscular was looking for two in particular
Dinobot: I'm glad you like the idea and since that there will be a Dinosaur later on I got to know is it Devil Dinosaur? and could there be some Dinosaurs from GenndyTartakovsky's Primal some of those Dinosaurs can give Izuku Ochaco Bakugo and every one else a tuff fight like the Red 's Quetzalcoatlus or Pterodactyl The Night Feeder all of these Dinosaurs will be a challenge and could there Dinosaurs from Jurassic world? like Carnotaurus Spinosaurs Therizinosaurus who also have Quirks
I'll list there names and Quirks
ToroQuirk Raging Bull will activate when the user becomes enrage making them bigger and will be invulnerable against anything.
TrevorQurik Inferno Fire the user will has the ability to shoot out Green Fire from it's mouth and the fire is powerful enough to be use deep underwater the sail on it's back will light up when it fire's.
SurasshuQurik Steel Blade the user can make the claws on it's hands in to steel and can cut throw anything and it can even have it's feather's turn into steel and will use them as throwing daggers to throw at it's ememies.
Quick is the Japnese name for Slash I thought that might be cool.
Guardian-Sigil: Dammit you got on the first try. Yes I plan to introduce (minorly) Devil Dinosaur at a muuuuuuuch later date. I know exactly how I'm gonna do it too
Also quick reminder I did have a Spino show up during the Kraaken Chapter
And hey fitting that Humongousaur shows up now, huh? ヽ(͡◕ ͜ʖ ͡◕)ノ
Guest: Will Ripjaws get another chance to shine in the future?
Guardian-Sigil: Yes. Nothing soon but for sure he'll get something
Guest: Hello it's me again, well now he has nothing to defend with unless they give him another gadget, the comment I made about the pepper spray again I made it based on what I would do, if I were izuku I would have as many Gadgets on me as possible regardless of if they are simple or complex, to make sure that when the omnitrix is red I have a chance to defend myself in any way possible, it's easy to use and portable, So I thought, "hey this I can use and it doesn't cost me anything to take it with me", So why not have it who knows, Besides, at least this has some purpose or benefit, Ashido uses a white mask because yes, it does nothing
Guardian-Sigil: Thank you. It's not a bad idea at all and I never meant for this to drag on as it did. Pepper Spray is not bad and let's say yes Deku can have it. But I rather focus on his other gear. Thank you for sharing though
Felipe: to "Fox", honestly, all this time I have been visualizing Rath as the version of "5 years later" which is basically Rath but without a shirt and wearing "Leggings with a Strap Underfoot" or at least that is what I think he is wearing
Guardian-Sigil: It doesn't really matter which version of the aliens you envision. I keep the descriptions vague so you all can envision the version you prefer. For example I imagine the Classic Stinkfly but I also envision the Omniverse version of Four Arms, or the Alien Force version of Big Chill.
I'm Hellboy: Have you thought of doing of some of class1A and Class1B and some Villains fused and transformed into aliens from the Omnitrix? like how did in Omniverse when he took a piece from the Omnitrix and Deku's classmates will have to learn how to use the powers of the aliens they become even the villains to learn to use the aliens powers and some have to adjust on using them both on to try and use their Quirks or not for the Hero's and Villain's and for the aliens to fused with
Katsuki Bakugo-Upchuck
Ochaco Uraraka-Four Arms
Tsuyu Asui-Ripjaws
Denki Kaminari-Wildmut
Minoru Mineta-Cannonbolt
Eijiro Kirishima-Heatblast
Itsuka Kendo-Wildvine
Setsuna Tokage-Ghostfreak
Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu-Shocksquatch
Dabi-Diamondhead
Himiko Toga-Snare-oh
Spinner-Humungousaur
Twice-Upgrade
Mr. Compress-Armodrillo
it would be interesting to see
Guardian-Sigil: Yes I have thought about it to the point that i know it has to be a much smaller list then this. But trust me i am thinking about it
I'm Hellboy (again): I forgot say that it was Dr. Psychobos that took a piece of the Omnitrix
Guardian-Sigil: Oh yeaaaaah
Shendu: I don't know when you plan to introduce chromastone, but remember that he is the DNA sample of a crystalsapien, of which there is only one in the entire Universe, he is very special and there probably aren't many out there in the universe who know that this species exists, so just a reminder/advice when you introduce him, have izuku ask his father and thirteen for help, but they are not able to help him because there is no information on the crystalsapiens species in any of their databases, and that izuku has to discover all his powers by himself (it's not a big deal but the fact that there is only one of them in the universe is part of the charm, so if I were you I would put a little emphasis on that to be able to really show how special each Alien is in their own way, in the case of chromastone the fact that there aren't many out there who could see him and actually recognize what he is)
Guardian-Sigil: Thanks for the reminder
JuryLobster: That artwork of krab is so good, and helpful lol I was just imagining his body was like one them scrap droids from starwars.
Damn so not only do they have to deal with Toga, Mustard, Dabi, Magne, MoonFish, Spinner, Muscular, Compress, twice and kurogiri.
But also CharmCaster, SevenSeven and the menace himself Nue. Dang wonder how much that'll change the attack of the camp. Will CharmCaster want revenge on Uraraka? Will Nue jump Deku while he's fighting muscular or something?
WildMutt aye? As much as I love WildMutt I don't think he's got much of a chance against muscular, wonder how the fights gonna go down? Who'll be the alien to take down Muscular? I'm betting either FourArms, ShockSquatch or a new alien.
Great Chapter as always.
Guardian-Sigil: Glad to hear it. I've been wanting that visual aid for a while now.
IxGod: Idk if when you do the 10k type chapter if you'll include ken 10 or not, but just because he'd be Japanese and not American (unless you got the mother as kai or something) I was thinking his name could be Kenzu, mixture of Izuku and Ken
Guardian-Sigil: I am unsure of that myself, also please reread my "Special Announcements" chapter about all that time travel stuff
BlueRanger-Lyric: Is there any chance for AP-5 to make an appearance in this fanfic so Chopper can have his "C-3PO" who he loves to argue with, you know, have a Droid help keep the Plumbers on Earth organised since they are so understaffed?
Guardian-Sigil: There is a chance but I'm not bending over backwards to bring him in right away. So, he may never show up cause of all the other characters there are and going to be
