4. Prolouge Finale

I do not own My Hero Academia or any other material from movies, games, shows, etc. I only own the characters/O.C.'s I created.

Hey, everyone, I'll keep this short. The reason I haven't uploaded the final part of the prologue is that my old computer died. I found this out after I unpacked and tried turning it on. My uncle bought me a new one so I'm all good. Another reason is that I've been busy the last couple of months helping the family out and I just forgot to write. I admit being out of my writing loop has through me off my writing game so I apologize if things seem off, I always do a thorough check before posting so don't worry too much, but, be warry I may have missed some things, it's been a while since I wrote so I'm nervous. Chapter 1 won't take as long, but, there will be a lot of characters seeing how I'm finally introducing classes 1a and 1b. Also, this is really long and I like to apologize for it, just got really into the story and wrote what I thought would make an acceptable part of the prologue finale, I'm especially excited for what you guys think of a certain part in the end and warning it gets super dark near the end. So, please sit back and relax to the finale of the prologue. Slow Progress Updates

The Begining of Chaos (Prologue Finale)

Meanwhile on the streets of Hiroshima...

It was night time and Nejire and Zack just left an ice cream parlor/restaurant with ice cream in their hands.

"I'm sorry that your favorite restaurant was closed for fumigation." Said Zack.

"It's okay these things happen." Answered Nejire as she took a lick of her ice cream. "Mmh, this so delicious I can't believe I didn't know about this ice cream restaurant." Zack chuckled as she bounced up and down in the air.

"Be careful, you'll lose your ice cream if you keep doing that." He said teasing her.

"Oh, I won't, I'm a grown woman." She said to her defense. It took a few seconds to realize Zack teased her. "Wait a minute, you teased me!"

"Yeah, I guess I did." Said Zack as he rubbed the back of his head. "I guess hanging out with you for hours has left an impression on me." Nejire smiled as Zack said that. She then bent towards Zack and gave him a kiss on the cheek causing him to blush.

"So, if you want to hang out still, there's this parade I was planning to see with my friends and I was wondering if you'd like to come?" She asked with a small blush on her face.

"The parade your talking about wouldn't have to be the one celebrating the top 10 heroes of Japan would it? He asked in return.

"Yeah, that's the one!" Replied Nejire in glee. "Were you planning to head yourself?"

"Yeah, I was, I felt like I should go see how everyone was doing since I've been spending time with Miriko a lot." Replied Zack. 'Even though one of them is Endeavor.'

"Awesome!" She replied. "So are you going to be my date?" She asked as she blushed a little more causing Zack to blush as well. Zack was hesitating for a moment causing Nejire to squirm.

"You know what sure, I'll be your... date." He said nervously. Nejire screamed with joy as she grabbed him into a hug.

"Oh, Zack you made me so happy!" Shouted Nejire with glee.

'Well, Miriko and Ryukyu will be glad I made a friend that's a girl.' Thought Zack as he looked at Nejire smile. 'That smile of hers is so cute... wait what did I just say!?' Causing Zack to have a mental panic.

"Zack, are you okay?" Asked Nejire with a concerned look on her face. Zack then snapped back to reality.

"Oh, y, yeah, it just you been holding me for a while. He said nervously and with a blush.

"Oh, yeah, sorry." She said placing him on the ground and letting him go. "Just got excited is all, it's been a while since I've been on a date."

"Wait a minute, your one of The Big Three, a beautiful woman, and having a work-study with Ryukyu one of the top heroes of Japan, and no guy hasn't asked you out on a date?" Zack asked Nejire as she gave a small nod and her face was beet red. "Their fucking idiots."

"Huh?" Asked Nejire in surprise. Zack then grabbed her hand and they started to walk.

"Let's go, I'll make this the best date you ever had." He replied to Nejire.

"You know, you've got real bold, real quick just now." She said with a sly grin. Zack stopped for a moment just realizing what he said as he let go of her hand.

"Sorry, it just took me by surprise, that no one's asked you out for this long." He said with a huge blush on his face. Nejire then giggled at how Zack performed a complete 360 from bold to nervous again.

"I'm not mad," Nejire said as she close to Zack's ear. "In fact, I wouldn't mind seeing your bold side more often." She whispered as Zack's face went to deaf con red.

"S, s, so, shall we g, get going?" He asked holding his hand out to her.

"I'd love to." She replied as they started to head to the street the parade was being held on.

Meanwhile at the Hiroshima Museum...

"You sure that we're the only ones here?" Asked the security guard to his companion.

"Yeah, they wanted to have as much security at the parade as possible, but, don't worry Bob, a hero is coming to help watch the museum with us." Answered the other security guard.

"I just hope they get here soon Frank, this place is creepy at night." Said Bob as his flashlight shook.

"Oh, it's not that bad here on the night shift, we barely have any trouble here." Said Frank.

"Barely?" Asked Bob with nervousness in his voice.

"Yeah, the only trouble we get here is late-night vandals messing around." Answered Frank as he looked at his watch. "We just call the police and have them escorted off the property."

"Is something wrong?" Asked Bob.

"Oh, it's nothing, just thought that the hero that was going to help us would have been here by now." He answered. All of a sudden the ground shook for a moment.

"Was that an earthquake!?" Panicked Bob as held his flashlight to his chest.

"It definitely felt like one." Replied Frank. "Let's go check on that diamond."

"Why the diamond, it's sealed inside a special protective case isn't it?" Asked Bob. There was silence in the room as Bob was waiting for his answer. "Uh, Frank, if this is a prank it's not funny." He said flashing his flashlight everywhere in the room. As he frantically searched he found Frank standing there in the middle of the hallway.

"F, f, frank?" He asked as he went up and grabbed his partner by the shoulder. As he turned him, Bob's face was horrified. Frank's jaw was missing, including his throat. As Bob flashed the light lower he could see his partner's chest was ripped open down to his stomach, all of his guts pouring out onto the floor. Bob pushed his partner to the ground and walked backward into someone. He flashed his light upwards and was met with a face.

"Hello there." Said Mach. Bob then screamed as he saw Mach then lift something upwards and down into Bob silencing him. Mach then took his phone out of his pocket and opened an app. It then started to slowly connect to the cameras of the museum. "...Well, this is going to take a while." He then ran to the entrance and into the security booth and turned on the t.v.

"Hello, I'm Hisakawa Mari, a reporter for Hiroshima news and I'm at the Top Ten Heroes Day Parade." Said Mari.

"Yes, cause 'heroes' stand in the spotlight, appear in magazines, and start in commercials." Said Mach as he waved his hand in the air. "Bunch of damn hypocrites of society."

"But, the Top Ten Heroes are not the only ones here." She said pointing to the crowd. "You can see other heroes, like Kamui Woods, Death Arms, Mt. Lady, Midnight, and even Miriko."

"Or in other words, overacting, muscle-bound idiot, city destroyer, dominatrix, and furry." He said as he mocked the heroes.

"But everyone is very excited to see the number one pro hero All Might, the symbol of peace!" Said Mari.

"Ha, not for long." Said Mach with a maniac grin. All of a sudden he heard a ring in his ear. 'Ah must be Svikari.' He pressed the device in his ear and answered. "Hello, executioner of the soon-to-be-dead Captain Celebrity, how may I be of service?" He asked Svikari.

"Ignoring your normal stupidity, Captain Celebrity is almost there." Said Svikari. "Is everything ready?" Mach then took a look at his phone and noticed it said "complete."

"Yup, is Splice's "child" in position?" He asked Svikari.

"Of course it is, this is an important night for all of us." They said. "Do you honestly think the master would be so careless?"

"No, just want to check." Said Mach getting out of the security booth. "Now if you excuse me I have a show to get ready for." He said with a maniac grin as he turned off the device and went into position.

Meanwhile at the parade...

The streets were packed to the brim with fans and people alike.

"Excuse me, pardon me, just trying to find my friends, oh Zack was that you?" Asked Nejire as she felt a hand brush against her.

"Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing." Answered Zack feeling a hand brush up against him too. "Are you sure this is where your friends are?"

"They said they'd be at the start of the parade." She said looking up and down the streets.

"Hey, Nejire up here!" Shouted a male voice. Nejire and Zack both looked up and saw a man with blue eyes, his yellow hair standing out in the front, wearing a jean jacket and white dress pants.

"Mirio, there you are, is Tamaki and Yuyu up there too?" Asked Nejire.

"Yup, there's a fire escape to the side for you and..." Said Mirio as he saw a boy standing next to Nejire. "Your date?"

"DATE!?" Yelled a female voice.

"I'm guessing that's Yuyu?" Asked Zack as he had his hand brush through his hair, worrying what he was about to get into.

"Yup, you'll like her and the rest of my friends." She said with a smile as they walked to the fire escape Mirio mentioned.

Back at the museum...

Captain Celebrity had just arrived at the museum.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" Asked CC. "Strange I was told that there would be security guards waiting around at the entrance." He took a few more steps forward until he saw one of the guards he was supposed to meet. "Oh there you...!" He said until he stopped dead in his tracks and saw the goriest scene he has seen in his professional career. He saw the guard's body torn down from his jaw to his stomach. CC went down towards the body to check how long it was since the guard died. He then felt blood on his hand as he touched what was left of his neck.

"This was recent." Said CC in horror. "Wait, where's the other guard?"

"Dead." Said a voice. Celebrity looked around everywhere for the man. "I hacked into the speakers and camera's you moron."

"Where are you, villain!?" He shouted looking around as he walked.

"Oh please, what makes a person a villain these days." Said the voice as CC continued walking. "Is it stealing something because your family is poor, is it because you grew up in a rough environment, was it because you grew up quirkless for your whole life or better yet..." Said the voice as he stopped. CC wondered where he went and as he was looking he bumped into an exhibit. As looked down he found the other guard, he had a diamond lodged into his skull with gore everywhere. As CC looked up he saw a man holding a microphone, his hair was spikey brown, had green eyes, wore a white hoodie which was covered in blood on his right side from his shoulder down to his black jeans and a pair of blue high tops. "Is it because your quirk makes you a "monster" in the eyes of the public."

'This is not your average villain.' Thought CC. "Who and what are you really then?" He demanded.

"The "what" can wait until the show starts." He said with a grin. "As for who you are dealing with my name is Mach."

"Show!? Do you think this some kind of game!?" Shouted CC.

"Oh no, this is no game Captain Celebrity." Said Mach. He then threw the microphone against the wall shattering it and leaving a huge dent in the wall. "I don't kid around when it comes to life and death situations." CC looked at the wall and back to him.

"Well, if anything I feel bad for you." He said while getting a look from Mach. "My quirk... Allow you to fly and have telekinesis. Said CC as Mach interrupted him.

"Your also able to create a barrier that can protect you and others, give you super strength to topple gigantic villains and lift the largest of objects, you also have a powerful speed that can negate friction, g-force, inertia, etc because of your barrier." He said twirling his fingers. "At least, that's what King told me."

Fear. Pure fear, that's what Christopher was feeling right at that moment. This "villain" was able to list everything about his quirk to exact detail, all because his partner gathered the information. Sure if you were a dedicated hero fan, you'd probably say it in your sleep, but the way he said, it was like he was telling you, "Hey, I know your quirk and how to kick your ass with it."

"Look, no matter what your plan is, I won't let you get away with it!" He shouted while pointing his finger at him as his arm shooked.

"Well, it's a little late for that." Said Mach pointing to the dead guards. "Though, I wonder what will Japan citizens think after this whole affair is done and over with."

"Thankfully no one will... " CC stopped dead cold when he realized something Mach said earlier. "Your recording this live to everyone in Japan." He said with dread.

"Oh, not just Japan, the whole world!" Exclaimed Mach as he spun for a second. "And they'll be listening in 3, 2, 1."

20 minutes before the broadcast started...

Zack wished he never opened his mouth. After Nejire and Zack got onto the rooftop, Yuyu marched over to Zack and demanded know his intentions with Nejire. He tried to get a word in edge-wise, but, she wasn't going to let him. Eventually, Nejire managed to calm her down and introduced him to Mirio and Amajiki and exchanged numbers. While they were waiting, they talked about their quirks and hobbies as Yuyu was ignoring Zack.

Zack then asked if any of the girls were a fan of Popstep and Nejire lit up along with Yuyu, even though she tried to hide it. He told her how he met up with her thanks to Midnight and how he immediately learned after Popstep's attack that she was being controlled by a villain and convinced the Hero Committee to not press charges against her. While Nejire believed him, Yuyu demanded proof, so he opened his phone and called her and put her on speaker. After a long-winded conversation and a couple of apologies from Zack to Popstep, Yuyu wanted to know more about his relationship with her and was curious if he could get her merch for Yuyu and if he could introduce her to Popstep. It was that moment Zack made a silent prayer for something to happen and thankfully for him the parade started.

"Óh, the floats are amazing, oh look there's Ryukyu, hey Ryukyu!" Shouted Nejire as she waved to her on her dragon-themed float. "Isn't it beautiful, Zack"

"Yeah, it's very nice." Said Zack as he leaned to Mirio. "Is she always this hyper?" He whispered.

"Yeah, but, we wouldn't have it any other way." Whispered Mirio.

"Why did there have to be so many people." Said Amajiki while getting a look from Zack.

"Not a fan of crowds, huh?" Asked Zack.

"Yeah, that's Amajiki for ya, but, behind that nervousness lies that heart of a future hero." Said Mirio.

"Well, if what I hear from Fat Gum is any indication, I can see him making the top ten Pro Heroes List." He said earning a smile from Amajiki.

"Alright, every one it's the hero you been waiting for All Might!" Exclaimed Mari as the crowd went crazy.

"Thank you, everyone, for coming, but, please remember the heroes here today as well they deserve your recognition as well they..." "HELLO WORLD!" Said All Might as a voice shouted from several t.v.'s across the street. "Who's ready to see a fight to the death!" Shouted Mach.

Everyone was in an uproar, this man was interrupting the parade for a televised fight?

"Talk about bad timing." Said Amajiki.

"People please, relax, we will get this all sorted out!" Shouted Kamui Woods.

"You can't do this, people don't need to see this!" Shouted another voice from the television.

"Wait, that voice sounded like Captain Celebrity!" Shouted a man from the crowd. The scene on the tv shifted to the other voice.

"Hey, that is Captain Celebrity!" Shouted a woman from the crowd. The crowd went nuts to see the out-of-state hero here in Japan.

"Is this a part of the parade?" Asked Yuyu.

"What do you think, Zack?" Asked Nejire. Zack didn't answer Nejire's question he just stared at the t.v. "Zack, are you okay?" Zack then leaped off the building and spawned shadowy fallen angel wings from his back and flew over to All Might. "Zack!" Exclaimed Nejire as she flew after him.

"Wait Nejire!" Shouted Yuyu.

"What got Zack so riled up?" Asked Amajiki.

"It was definitely strange." Said Mirio as his cell phone rang. "Hello?"

"Hey Mirio, sorry I jumped and, well, flew away, but, I need to speak to All Might about the guy on the television." Explained Zack.

"Captain Celebrity?" Asked a confused Mirio.

"No, not him, the other guy!" Answered Zack. "Listen, I need you and Amajiki to call Fat Gum and Nighteye, that man is bad news, please trust me on this, bye." He said as he ended the call.

"Who was that?" Asked Yuyu.

"It was Zack." Said Mirio in a serious voice. "Amajaki we need to contact our hero work-study teachers."

"Why, this is a part of the parade right?" Asked Amajaki.

"From the way Zack made it sound, that man with Captain Celebrity is a villain." Answered Mirio.

Meanwhile with Zack...

The crowd had managed to break the barrier separating them from the parade.

"Everyone please, go back to the sides of the street your not suppose to be out in the road!" Exclaimed All Might.

"All Might!" Shouted Zack as he landed on All Might's float.

"Young Zack, what are you doing... Zack!" Asked All Might as Nejire shouted interrupting him.

"Nejire, what are you doing here!?" Exclaimed Zack. "Actually, never mind that Nejire I need you to go tell Ryukyu that man with Captain Celebrity is a villain."

"He is!?" Exclaimed Nejire. "Wait, how do you know he's a villain?" Zack wanted to tell her, but, it just brings so many painful memories.

"...I'd rather not say." Said Zack remembering the abuse and suffering he went through with Mach and the others.

"Zack." Said Nejire worried as she went to grab his shoulder.

"Young Nejire is it?" Asked All Might getting a nod from Nejire. "It is obvious that man and Zack have a serious past and it is best to leave it at that for now."

"...Okay, but, Zack I expect answers." She said as she flew away to find Ryukyu.

"Now that she's gone. Said All Might. "Which one of them is it Zack?" He asked in a serious tone.

"From what I remember his code name is Mach, as for his quirk. Said Zack as he started to hesitate.

"This is quite important Zack we need to know what we're facing against when we get to their location." He said to Zack as he put a hand on his shoulder.

"That's just it All Might, his quirk, I don't what it is." He said with sadness in his voice. "I thought it was a speed quirk, but, his body doesn't show the aspect's of speed quirk user."

"So we're literally in the dark." Said All Might as Zack gave a nod.

"Hey, look the event is starting!" Shouted a child from the crowd. True to what they said Captain Celebrity charged at Mach full force aims his fist at his face. Mach on the other was just grinning wildly.

"What the hell Celebrity, didn't you get any calls telling you not to attack him without backup!?" Exclaimed Zack.

"That's just it, we can't." Said Midnight as she got Zack and All Might.

"What do you mean is his communication device not working?" Questioned All Might.

"It is working, he just can't hear us, it's like something is blocking the frequency." She said grabbing her hero communicator. As she turned it on loud static could be heard. "It must be the same frequency that the t.v's have been hijacked on, but, we just can't through to either side."

"Wait, that guy caught CC's fist!" Shouted a woman. As the heroes turned to the t.v. what they saw was true. Mach was holding his fist at bay and it was bleeding pretty badly.

Scene shift back to the Hiroshima Museum

CC still couldn't believe what he was seeing. Mach managed to catch his fist at the speed he was going. Any normal strength quirk would show bruising around the palm, but, his hand was normal and the one getting hurt was CC.

"Took you a while to attack me." Said Mach as he grabbed a bottle from his pocket and flipped the cap open and drank from it. CC began to panic a bit more from seeing him drink the liquid. "Hm, oh this it's water got to stay hydrated." He said as he threw it away. "What did you think I was taking Trigger, please I don't need that toxic bullshit in my system."

"You're not going to win this fight!" Exclaimed CC as he threw his other fist at Mach. He caught CC's fist just inches away from his face.

"Your right, "your" not going to win this." He said as he crushed his hand. CC grunted in pain from how easily Mach crushed it. "Your poor family won't ever see you again, in fact, the last moment they'll see is you dying a horrible death." After he said that Christopher could feel something rush from Mach to him at full force. He got sent flying back through three walls and into a different exhibit area. As he got a sense of his surrounding's he stood, but when he did he felt massive pain in his right arm. As he looked he saw horrible the damage was. His entire right arm was shattered, bones were sticking out of the skin, his arm bent in a loop, and his wedding ring embedded into his skin.

Oh, yeah that's got too smart." Said Mach looking at his right arm. "Definitely not going to be able to do hero work anymore."

"What... is it... that you want?" Asked Christopher in pain.

"I was wondering if you were going to remember." He said as he pushed Captain Celebrity down to the ground with his foot. "What I want is what my master wants."

"And that... is?" Grunted CC.

"Recruits." Said Mach as he clapped his hands together. Christopher couldn't believe what he was hearing, all this for some terrorist group. "You're probably thinking, why would a "terrorist group" go to these extremes?" He asked CC in a mocking tone. "Well, first were not a terrorist group the master doesn't see it that way, and second the truth is we only have several members, I mean, we have lackey's or as Priest or King would put it, followers and comrades, but still, were pretty low in the "boss" department."

"So this was your game... to post up a sick video of two dead guards...and a dead pro hero to get more people for your group?" Questioned CC as he was starting to get the ability to talk full sentences again.

"Well, that was my original plan." He said. "But, dear old Charles gave me another idea." That name rang a bell to Christopher. He remembered the head of the Hiroshima police department talking about a missing informant. "While I was "teaching" Charles's responsibility, it got to me, why don't I tell society what heroes did for me." Said Mach as he started to walk back and forth. "We all have different origin stories, Priest's... is honestly one of the most fucked up ones, King's is tragic and painful, while mine is full of anger and hate."

"And what could make you have so much anger and hate to become a villain? CC asked Mach. Mach walked over and kick him in the stomach.

"First off, do not call me that again, I'm above that stupid overused comic book trope." He said as his voice got more harsh and cold. "And as for what got me like this, well, the corrupt society we live in."

"What are you... Quirks!" Asked CC as Mach interrupted him. "A wonderful society we live in, where we either use them to help people, to do our everyday jobs, and maybe even change the world for the better... that is the bullshit I use to believe in regardless of what I thought my quirk could do." CC just stood silent. "Emitter, Transformation, and Mutant these are the types of quirks that are in the world, I use to think mine was your average Mutant type... till I kicked my school bully into a bloody oblivion." He said gripping his fists together. "What do you think happened afterward?"

"...You got arrested." Said CC.

"Correct, I didn't get a psychologist to help me through that frighting day, I didn't have any friends who dared to get near me, hell the teachers and cops already labeled me as you put it a "villain" of society when I was only eight years old, and the police, "oh dear old prioritize the truth before convicting" faked it all because my family paid them to get rid of me." Said Mach as he ranted. "And you wanna know what was the most painful emotional stab to my chest was?" CC had a feeling he wasn't going to like it.

"I pleaded with the hero to help me, I didn't want to go to jail, I was a child!" He shouted. "The hero then looked at me and told me that everything would be alright... it didn't turn alright, it went to shit!" Mach yelled as he destroyed a wall as several others broke from the wind. "My quirk had nothing to do with what I thought it was, my quirk as I soon labeled it later was called 'Vibrations,' a simple action caused by noise obliterated that kid and labeled me as a monster..., but, honestly there's another name I've come to love." Mach got close up to CC and grabbed him by the neck. "DEVIL!" He said with a maniac grin as he threw CC into a statue.

"You see we're not a terrorist group or a group of villains, we're more of a group of elites." He said walking to the dust cloud of the broken statue. "Our quirks are more inhuman, than others, ours... TAKE THIS!" Said Mach as CC swung what was left of the statue at him.

'Got him' Thought CC. As the dust settled there stood a very angry and undamaged Mach. "That." Said Mach as he grabbed CC's left arm. "Was." He then moved quickly behind CC with his arm him feeling his shoulder broke. "RUDE!" Mach then pulled off CC's arm with ease. CC then yelled in excruciating pain as blood flew around and fell to the ground. "Now where the hell was i... oh fuck it this has gone on too long as it is, I'll just get to the point." All of a sudden bulges appeared from behind Mach's back and fabric could be heard ripping.

"As I said, I have a Mutation quirk." He said as ashen wings came flying out from his back. "At least that's what I thought."

As Mach was monologuing, CC stood up very slowly to not get his attention. "You see, my master told me that I have this gene that extremely rare to activate, he even said it might one of the reasons quirks came into existence in the first place." Said Mach as he looked up at the mirror that security cameras use and saw CC getting up and just grinned. "He called it the 'Devil' gene, why you may ask? It's because this gene is sentient, it feels, it evolves faster than regular quirk genes, and through this gene, we constantly get new physical changes!" He said as he looked at CC. "It would be a living hell but, thankfully we can control it."

"That... sounds..." "Impossible that's what I said." Grunted CC as Mach interuptted him. "But, then I was asked if I ever noticed how fast my quirk evolved from others at my school or how it seemed my quirk gained other abilities and honestly I did, but, I never paid any mind to it." He said as walked closer to CC. "My master then told me about the gene and how that made me a True Devil." Mach then raised his hand at CC and his wings spread open. "That was the day the once known jewel thief known as Icarus died and Mach was born."

"What... made... you...?" "This way, oh that's easy." Asked CC as Mach interrupted him once more. "When said hero thought cash was more important than a child's sanity." He said very coldly. Mach then made the whole room shake with his vibrations. "You know what's funny? He asked CC.

"What...?" Replied CC.

"You're going to die to someone who barely has any muscle strength for physical combat and yet he got the upper hand on you," Mach said with a malicious grin as the sound was starting to be heard along with pressures of wind filling the room. "And now Christopher I must say..." He said as he closed his hand. "Goodbye." After he did that everything in front of him started to evaporate from the sound and vibrations. CC barely felt anything as it hit wishing he could see his family one last time as his flesh and bones began to fly off. Then everything got silent and as the dust cleared there was barely anything left in front of Mach. His attack went at least 4 yards of destruction as he looked at the destruction in front of him. "Damn, that barely made a scratch in Shikoku." He said as he pulled out his phone to finish the broadcast. "So, who wants to be a True Devil, I know if I was in your shoes I would, but, if that doesn't make you interested I suggest you watch the parade, it will be absolutely lovely."

Back at the parade...

Everyone was in silence, absolute silence until the screams and panic hit.

"Oh my god, Captain Celebrity is dead!" Shouted a woman.

"Forget Celebrity, all those innocent people in those houses are dead, and did you hear about what he said about it reaching Shikoku!?" Shouted a man.

Zack, the pros, and his new friends were in shock as well. They just witnessed one of America's top pro hero's get demolished and Mach made it look like child's play.

"I can't believe he's dead." Said Midnight as she covered her mouth.

"And the whole world just watched it." Said All Might as he gripped his fists.

"I know this is shocking, but, we have more important things to worry about." Said Zack.

"Oh really?" Questioned a heavy male voice. Zack knew who that belonged to as he turned to see Endeavor with Best Jeanist, Crust, and Edgeshot.

"Yes Endeavor, we do, M... that villain just announced he and his group have something planned for the parade!" He exclaimed.

"And with how everyone is in panic and dismay from that gruesome display it won't be easy to fight whatever they have planned here." Said Best Jeanist.

"It will be an utter blood bath, worse than the one we saw on t.v.!" Exclaimed Crust.

"And how do we know he's telling the truth and not bluffing?" Questioned Endeavor. Just after he said that the parade float in front of All Might's bumped into them causing them to almost lose balance.

"Please, everyone stay away from the floats I know everyone is scared, but, will have more injuries on our hands if anyone with a strength quirk hits another float!" Shouted Edgeshot as another crashed into them. Deciding to see what the hell the drivers of the float were doing Endeavor went to his float and swung the hatch open.

"JUST WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING DOWN... here. Said Endeavor as he was yelling at the driver to suddenly stop and see something horrifying. A greyish whitish flesh had surrounded the driver, it had broken through their chest and connected to the other float.

"Ple... ki..." That was all the driver could say after sub coming to his wounds. After that, another float crashed into them.

"Endeavor, what's going on! Shouted All Might.

"We got a problem, some sort of flesh quirk is killing the drivers off the floats." He answered. Zack's eyes went into horror at the answer. He knew only one person who could do that in the True Devil's organization.

"We need to evacuate everyone." Said Zack.

"What, why?" Asked Best Jeanist as another float crashed into them.

"This isn't your average flesh quirk, it's going to combine with other pieces of itself to create a huge problem." He answered Best as another float crashed into them. "A very huge and long problem."

"And how do you know that?" Questioned Endeavor. Zack didn't want to say how he knew. He told a few heroes who he felt he could trust like Miriko, but, if he let it out here to these heroes he trained with and made friends with, would they still look at him with the same eyes? But, before Zack could answer All Might spoke.

"Endeavor, I think it's quite obvious at this point." Said All Might.

"Oh really and that is?" He mockingly asked.

"This quirk is currently trying to connect the other floats and create the thing Young Zack seems too afraid of, so we need to stop talking AND ACT! " Said All Might as he yelled the last bit and dashed off to the front of the parade.

"He's right the time for action is now." Said Best Jeanist creating fiber's around the All Might figure on the first float. "Crust and Midnight, help the heroes that are calming the crowd and tell them to evacuate." Midnight and Crust and nodded and ran off to help the others.

"Endeavor..." "I know." He said as Endeavor interrupted him and dashed to All Might's position.

"I'll go..." "You go and help any injured." Said Zack as Best interrupted him. Zack wanted to argue with him and go help All Might but knew not to given the situation. "Okay." Answered Zack as he took off to find any injured.

Meanwhile at the True Devil HQ...

"Oh, look at my baby grow!" Exclaimed Splice as she sat and watched it combine the floats.

"Yes, it seems our plan is going quite well." Said Emperor.

"Truth be told though Mach could have monologued less." Said Priest.

"True, but, he did his job." Replied King.

"Not to be a downer, but, shouldn't we speed this up." Said a voice coming into the room.

"Ah, Ace, you're just in time to watch the bloodfest!" Said Nightingale.

Trickster also was happy and ran to hug him. One of the people other than King she got along with was Ace.

"Trickster, you know about my issues with personal space." He said getting a pout from Trickster. Ace then rolled his eyes and rubbed the top of her head getting a smile out of her.

"That girl is such a child." Said Mob taking a drink from his coffee cup. As he did it broke and he looked to see Trickster give him a screw you look.

"Enough about that, why should we hurry, Svikari isn't here yet." Said Nightingale.

"Mach isn't here either." Said Mob cleaning the coffee stain off of his pants.

"Yeah, but, does anyone really care that much?" She asked. After that, the door to the meeting room was kicked open.

"Okay, one, fuck you, Nightingale." Said Mach as he entered the room.

"You wish." She said rolling her eyes.

"And two I'm still feeling blood lusty so..." "What is rule 4 again Mach?" He said as Ace interrupted him. "...Don't kill other Devil's unless Emperor says too, yeah, I remember." He said as grabbed a seat. "Just a bit edgy because I had to outrun that Ingenium and you know how I don't like to use my wings after I do an attack."

"It doesn't harm you." Said King.

"No, but, when I fly and feathers fall off you get a trail." Said Mach rubbing one of his wings. "A trail of feathers that ring for three seconds after they fall."

"The only downside to your quirk, luckily they evaporate just as quick." Said Ace. "As for the location of Svikari, didn't they say they wanted front row seats to the show?"

"Oh yeah, they're probably having a riot right now watching all the chaos." Said Nightingale as she kicked her feet about as she laughed. "By the way, Splice when is your child going to wreak havoc.

"When King says so." She growled with anger. "He wants to see if he can find our missing project."

"That kid from all those years ago, pretty sure he's dead." Said Nightingale.

"We never found the body." Said Emperor.

"Doesn't mean he's alive." She said.

"...Actually." Said Mach as everyone turned to his attention. "When I went to get Charles, I thought I saw him for a moment."

"Impossible, even if he did survive his quirk would have killed him off." Said Splice. "After all, he was still unstable."

"Well, even if he is..." "There." Said Nightingale as King interrupted her. Emperor zoomed on the person King spotted with his tablet.

"That man right there." He said.

"Him?" Questioned Priest. "Sure he able to produce shadow wings from his back, but, that doesn't mean it's him."

"Well, let's put the theory to the test then." Said Emperor as he looked at Splice. "Splice, start the final phase to Operation Clover."

"Yes, my lord." She said with a grin as she pressed a button in her hand.

Back at the parade...

All Might had just got to the front of the parade. "Okay, it's time to stop this villain!" Shouted All Might at he readied a smash. As he did he notice the floats were violently shaking and breaking apart. All Might then threw his fist back and yelled "Smash!" The attack hitting the creature causing the floats in front of him to deteriorate. As the dust deteriorates All Might looks for the creature and sees the most terrifying sight.

In front of him is the creature at least 12 ft tall, a grey sludge exterior like Endeavor told him, a snake-like head with three green eyes on each side was in front of All Might, a tall large muscular body was protruding from the slime body of the snake's, it had armored arms and claw, it had a head that belonged on a demon with a golden mask on its face with red eyes showing from the mask.

'The hell is this person, no, this thing!?' Thought All Might while looking at the gigantic creature.

The creature then let out a bellowing roar at All Might and swung its main left arm and claw at him. All Might then grabbed it before it could hit him.

"Ha, thought you could... UGH!" Taunted All Might as he then felt a sudden pain on his left side. He looked to the left to find a blade protruding from its palm that barely just missed his rib cage. All Might then threw his fist back and yelled "Texas Smash!" His attack then sent the claw flying back into a building and as the dust cleared from the building the claw was badly damaged with bones protruding out everywhere. 'There that should stop one of its hands, but, if that thing's quirk had aimed any further closer I would have been in a lot of trouble.' He thought breathing heavily.

The creature then roared again as it lifted its damaged claw towards its head. 'The hell is it doing?' Thought All Might looking at the creature's actions.

"All Might!" Shouted Best Jeanist as he ran towards him.

"Jeanist, your alright." He said as he felt the heat to his left.

"I'm alright as well." Said Endeavor as he walked up to the two. "So, this is the thing that was hiding in the floats."

"Yes, but, as for what it's doing right now I don't have a clue." Said All Might.

The creature then looked at the hand and did something horrifying. It took its right claw and pulled on its jaw dislodging it. It then put the damaged claw of the main body in its mouth and closed its mouth and ate the claw.

"I, it ate its own hand!?" Exclaimed Endeavor as he took a step back in shock.

The creature then raised its main left arm and a new claw formed in its place. The creature then looked at the heroes and glared at them. The demon then grew another arm and raised its new appendage in the air and left it there.

"What is it doing now?" Asked Best Jeanist as the demon hid a grin.

Meanwhile with Zack...

Zack did what All Might said, he helped any injured and brought them to the current safe area where the other heroes were helping the injured. Zack was flying back with an injured woman in his arms towards Recovery Girl. Recovery Girl and the paramedics at the area rushed towards him. "What happened?" Asked one of the paramedics.

"She broke her leg while trying to get away from the flying debris." Said Zack as handed the injured woman to the paramedic.

"This was supposed to be a happy day for the heroes now it's ruined." Said the woman as she took to a medical tent. Zack just rubbed his hand through his hair at the response.

"It's not your fault." Said Recovery Girl.

"Really, cause it feels like it is." He said looking down at the ground. "How do we know if that thing is just here for destruction or it's looking for me?" Recovery Girl then taps his head with her cane. "Ow, was that for!?"

"For you to snap out of it." She said giving him a serious look. "Your a hero and your acting like it's all over."

"But... No buts!" Said Zack as Chiyo interrupted him.

"Now is the time for action and not self-pity." She said giving him a caring smile. Zack then shook his head and smiled back.

"Yeah, your right." He said getting ready to fly back to the scene when... "Zack!" Shouted Nejire. Zack turned to see her bring an injured child towards them.

"Nejire, you're alright." Said Zack.

"Of course I am, I wouldn't be a good hero if I lose cool under pressure. Said Nejire as she handed the child to a paramedic.

"Okay, with the child gone." He said as he looked at Nejire. "How are you really?" Nejire's smile dropped and she hugged Zack.

"Terrified." She said while holding him as tears fell down her face. "I didn't think I'd be in this type of situation so soon."

"Well as my father says, 'Except the unexcepted.' He said as quoted his father. Nejire then let go showing her smile again. "Though, I have to admit, who could ever except this." He said as snapped his fingers. As he did he noticed something different about his surroundings. It was all black with outlines. 'The fuck is this!?'

"Zack, are you alright?" Asked Nejire. As Zack turned to answer he notices a wavey pattern coming off Nejire. The pattern was yellow and he felt like he could feel her worry, not as a normal person would, but, on a deeper level. The same went for everything around him. He felt sadness, anger, and fear. He then looked back at the creature and saw a huge red wavey pattern coming off it, but something was off. Zack looked closer at the extra hand and noticed its hand was wavey as well.

'I wonder?' Thought Zack as he tried to focus more on the hand. As he did he noticed the wavey pattern becoming more solid in a circular ball formation and was growing. He then looked where the creature's new hand saw what it was looking at. "Oh, crap." Said Zack stepping back in fear.

"Zack, what's wrong?" Asked Nejire getting concerned. Zack then flew upwards as quickly as he could. "Zack!" She shouted.

"What's going on!?" Shouted her mentor coming up right behind her with wounded.

"Ryukyu, Zack just took off after looking at that monster!" Shouted Nejire. Ryukyu looked at Zack and then the creature and noticed where the creature was looking.

"That creature is looking at us!" She exclaimed to Nejire.

"It is!?" Exclaimed Nejire looking at the creature. She then saw its hand bending back. "Oh my god, it's going to attack us!" Ryukyu then started to transform into her dragon form but stopped when she saw Zack floating in the air.

'What is he doing!?' Thought Ryukyu as she looked at him in bewilderment.

As for what Zack was doing he was getting ready for the attack. Zack then took a deep breath and let it out. "Okay, let's release the demon inside." He said as he pulled up his hoodie and started to transform. He let out a bellowing yell as a column of darkness surrounded him.

"ZACK!" Exclaimed Nejire as Ryukyu grabbed her shoulder.

"It's okay, Nejire." She said as the darkness around Zack started to deteriorate. "This is his quirk."

As the darkness resided from Zack's body it began to show and what showed up Nejire couldn't even tell if it was even Zack anymore. In Zack's place was a demonic-looking Grim Reaper it shook everyone to the core all except Recovery Girl and Ryukyu.

'You're going to attack that thing after stoping its attack aren't you?' Thought Recovery Girl as she sighed. 'Though I can't blame you.'

'So this is what Miriko described to me.' Thought Ryukyu as she stared at Zack in awe.

Zack then spread out his demonic claw and created a hard shadow-colored barrier. 'I hope this holds.' Prayed Zack.

Back with the other heroes...

All Might, Endeavor, and Best Jeanist were holding their ground, while the other hero's gathered any civilians out in the open or inside nearby buildings to the safe zone the heroes designated for the civilians. The creature was still standing strong hardly breaking a sweat attacking and defending against the heroes.

"How is this thing still standing!?" Shouted Endeavor attacking the lizard's head of the body.

"One thing's for sure the Devil's created this to deal with us." Said Best Jeanist as spikes flew at him.

"I know the parade wasn't a secret, but, to be this ready for us it's like they knew what heroes were helping out with the event!" Shouted All Might as he dodged another arm. "It's like they had inside help!"

"I'd rather not think that one of our comrades has betrayed us, but, the evidence is overwhelming." Said Best Jeanist.

So far none of their attacks has harmed this creature. The creature just ignores every attempt made and learns from it. When Endeavour first attacks the creature, the lizard head spat out an acidic liquid. He dodged and then shots fire at to only have the liquid blow up in his face. Best Jeanist tried using his wires around the head of the main body to decapitate it, but, the wires just broke, and All Might was hitting the demonic creature, but, after every blow, it just healed itself.

"There has to be something to take this thing down, it can't be... WATCH OUT!" Screamed Best Jeanist as the creature threw its extra arm down and its hand hit the ground. Everybody managed to dodge out of the way in time before the hand hit them. However, it left itself open because the whole body arched forward a bit to hit the heroes.

Endeavour smiled as he ran to where the creature's body was still arched and yelled "Flashfire Fist -Hell's Curtain!" A blanket of flames covered the body as the power of the fire lunged upwards and covered the creature. 'Let's see it recover from that!'

"Nice job, Endeavour, it must be weakened after that attack!" Shouted All Might as Best Jeasnist then used Thread of Hope to hold the creature in place.

"And it shouldn't be going anywhere any... That was all Best could say as an explosion could be heard.

"The hell was that!?" Exclaimed Endeavour.

"That was Zack being a hero!" Shouted Miriko as she landed next to them.

"Zack, what did he do?" Asked Best Jeanist. Miriko just grinned wildly.

Flashback

Zack just created the shield to use as his earpiece rang. He used his shoulder to nudge it to answer it. "Look whoever it is I'm a bit busy right now." He replied as nicely as he could.

"To hell with that, what are you doing kid!?" Shouted Miriko.

'Damn, I knew this would get her attention, but, that quickly.' Thought Zack. "I'm getting ready to block an incoming attack."

"You plan to block the creature's claw attack!?" she shouted again.

"Not the claw, what's it's planning to throw at the recovery station." He said expanding the shield more.

"The hell are you talking about?" Asked Miriko as she looked at the creature from where she was. "There's nothing in its hand." Zack then took a deep breath to keep calm to control his demon side.

"Rumi, you trust me, right?" Asked Zack as she was silent. "Trust me as you did back at that bank robbery. We both came out of them with wounds but, everyone was saved that day and we arrested the villains, so please, trust me on this."

"...Just don't die." She said with worry.

"I haven't yet, have I?" He asked with a cocky tone.

"WATCH OUT!?" Shouted Best Jeanist.

'Game time.' Thought Zack getting ready for the impact. The attack the creature threw could be heard.

Meanwhile on the ground

"Wait, what's that?" Questioned Nejire as she heard whistling. It was then the attack collided with Zack's Shadow Wall.

"Hold on, did Zack hear that from so far away!?" Exclaimed Ryukyu.

"No." Said Nejire now understanding why Zack's eyes were so in shock. "He saw it."

"Huh?" Replied her mentor.

"Nejire, Zack doesn't have a sight quirk." Said Recovery Girl.

"No, he saw it, his eyes were so bugged out after he snapped his fingers like he was on something." Explained Nejire. "I think he unlocked another part of his quirk."

Back with Zack

'This is a lot harder than I thought it be.' Thought Zack as blood started to spew from his mouth. The impact was a lot stronger than he thought it would be. He knew that she could create a creature with incredible strength, but, this was on a whole different level. He felt pain through each of Splice's tests, but, this was different. Zack then felt a pain in his head for a second and he looked at his Shadow Wall and saw it was starting to wear. 'Come on, Zack, you can do this, do this for everyone who trained you, do this for Ne... no your father, do this... do this for Nejire.' He thought while pushing the strength of his Shadow Wall further.

Call it a stupid love story cliche, but, in the time he has gotten to know Nejire, he fell in love with her. Something about her smile, her carrying personality, just clicked with him. It could be because he was stuck with The Devil's for so long, but, he felt loved and he was not about to let her cry, not again, he saw her tear up in his arms even though she didn't notice that he saw it, but, he did and for that split second he felt her pain. "As All Might, always said to me, you got to go beyond and go, Plus Ultra!" He said to himself as he strengthens the wall again causing the attack to explode and release safely into the air. He then reverts the wall into a shadow-like mist and shouting. At first, he thought it was Nejire giving him hell for the stunt he just pulled, but, instead saw people giving him praise.

"Look at that hero, he repelled that monster's attack!" Shouted a little girl.

"Way to go, Hero!" Shouted a paramedic.

"Yeah, way to go... to... uh what his hero name?" Asked a man wanting to cheer him on.

"That's The Demonic Hero, Chaos." Said Ryukyu remembering what Mirikio told her about his hero name.

"Way to go Chaos!" Shouted a little boy.

"Yeah, you go Chaos!" Shouted Nejire with a smile on her face. Zack didn't know whether to cry tears of joy or just rub his neck in embarrassment, but, he knew right now at that moment he was a hero.

End of Flashback

"To think that Young Zack's quirk would evolve right here and now is amazing." Said All Might as he could still hear the cheering going on.

"If it hadn't all those people we rescued would mean nothing." Said Best Jeanist.

"Yeah, the kid's crazy." Said Miriko as she looked towards the cheering and smiled. "But, honestly I wouldn't have it any other way."

"Hahahaha!" Exclaimed a person.

"Hey, if you got something to say, then say it Endeavour!" She exclaimed.

"...That wasn't me." Replied Endeavour with a shocked expression. They all looked towards the laughing and it was the snake on the creature's body.

"You thought... this would kill me... Mother made me stronger to deal with you." Said the lizard head.

"Well, from our standing point, it looks like we have won." Said Miriko cockily.

"It would look like that... wouldn't it?" It questioned them. At that moment the heroes could hear the sickening sound of flesh ripping and saw the body had ripped itself from the snake's body. "In truth, you have lost." Said the lizard as it started to bloat up.

Back with Zack

"Okay, it's time to take that monstrosity out." He said as glared at the creature. All of sudden though the body started to lean upward causing Zack to make a tall Shadow Wall to protect the citizens. "What the hell?" Questioned Zack seeing the creature raise itself upside down breaking Best Jeanist threads as they cut the body of the beast up pretty bad. The creature then turned its burnt body around showing everyone what Endeavour's burns did to the creature.

The main body was all burnt up and some of its bones showing along with its burnt organs showing underneath the bones and the top part of the head and mask were blown to oblivion and all that remained was the jaw. 'Well, I'm not sleeping tonight.' Thought Zack.

The creature's body then grew some wings and the lower half of its body started to form another body with the same head before it was destroyed as its upper half but its arms were morphed into a guillotine hanging below its head.

"Okay, so despite the damage it was dealt it still has tricks up its sleeves, well I've still got the energy to spare and I'm not about to let you...UGH!" Screamed Zack at the end as he felt a blade pierce him. 'How did it get through the shadow wall.' He thought as he coughed up blood. Zack then looked down and saw a portal behind his wall. 'IT HAS A WARPING QUIRK!'

The creature then began to laugh as pulled the blade away from Zack. As it did Zack's Shadow Wall began to shatter and Zack started losing control of his flying. The creature then raised its claw to its face and held it there. "Did you really think you escape us for so long, our precious weapon?" Said the creature in a rough feminine voice.

"That voice... that's you isn't it... Splice?" Asked Zack as the creature began to wildly grin. "How are you talking to me?"

"Oh, did you honestly think my Quirk could only create creatures?" Said Splice. "Oh, Zack, you only saw a fraction of what it could do." As this conversation was going on down below the people were confused.

"Wait, Chaos knows The Devil's?" Questioned a man.

"Doesn't that make him a Devil?" Asked a woman.

"The way this Splice woman is talking, she's treating him more like an object than a person." Said a male police officer.

As for Nejire, it clicked for her. The way Zack flinched about her asking who Mach was, his reaction to Mach's voice, the fear that was in his voice when she flew to him, and from what Splice was saying, put it all together for her. "Zack was experimented on." She uttered out loud for people to hear.

Back with the other heroes...

"Damn it!" Shouted Miriko as she got off the ground from the attack. "Is everyone alright!?"

"I think so." Said Best Jeanist as he got out from behind a vehicle. "Endeavour, how are you?"

Endeavor raised out from smoke holding his arm. "Besides a possible broken arm, fine." He said looking at the creature. He then looked closer and noticed something odd. The creature's burst point looked slanted. He then went to the lying corpse to get a better look.

"Endeavour, it's dead, we have nothing to worry about." Said Miriko as she looked around. "Wait a minute, where's All Might?"

"Your right, we haven't checked to see if All Might is alright." Said Best Jeanist realizing his own carelessness.

Endeavor got to the creature as Miriko and Best Jeanist looked around for All Might. When he did he noticed a part of its body that looked like a popped tube and followed where it leads.

"ALL MIGHT!" Shouted Miriko.

"Damn it where is he!" Exclaimed Best Jeanist.

"Over here!" Yelled Endeavour as Miriko and Best Jeanist ran to him.

With Zack and Splice

"Look, I don't care what you do with me leave them alone!" Shouted Zack defending the people below.

"Oh my, what a hero complex you have." Said Splice with a coy grin. "Would you come back with us if it meant the safety of these people?"

Zack looked back to the people below as they wait for his response. "Yeah, yeah I would." He Replied raising his hands above his shoulders.

"Hahahaha! She laughed. Oh wow, you truly do care about them, I guess you really have become a hero." Zack awaited what was to come next to only to be greeted by the lower half's guillotine hitting him across the chest.

"UGH!" Zack grunted as parts of his wings began to fade away.

"Zack!" Shouted Nejire.

"Oh, look at that you got a girlfriend... another reason to break that hope you created for yourself." Said Splice as the creature swung it lower half at her. Zack then created a Shadow Wall quickly to protect her. However, given his wounds, he was starting to falter. His body ached with the damage he took. His demonic form wanted to take control and murder the creature before him, but, fought back.

"Well, look at that." Said Splice as the creature gave another coy grin brought on by Splice. "You still can't control your power, at least you and All Might will have something in common now." After she said, silence filled the air.

"What... are you... talking about?" Asked Zack with anger and confusion.

(Scene Shift)

"All Might, I'm glad... your..." That was all Best Jeanist could say as he looked in shock, not paying attention to Miriko's scream.

(Scene Shift)

"Why do you think I created this creature?" Asked Splice as the upper half of the body raised its left claw. "It sure as hell wasn't to just promote ourselves." Zack's eyed in horror when he connected the dots.

(Scene Shift)

Endeavor could be seen the wound that was in All Might's side blood gushing out a bit of guts showing and him being in his deflated state. "Hang in there, Recovery Girl is on her way, just hang in there." Shouted Endeavour as he held his stomach injury.

"Don't worry... I'll be fine... because..." Said Toshinori as he started to close his eyes.

"No, stay in there All Might, Japan needs you!" Exclaimed Miriko trying to keep a straight face.

"It's... alright... because there's... two people... able to protect people..." He said struggling. "Another... symbol of peace... and a symbol... of hope..." "All Might? All Might!" Screamed Endeavour.

"Shit, he's going into cardiac arrest, where's the medevac!?" Shouted Miriko.

(Scene Shift "Devil's Base")

"That is what this creature was made to do, to kill the Symbol of Peace." Said Splice as she had this possessed look on her face. While she was doing this Ace had broken open a bottle of champagne and poured everyone a drink. Mach and Nightingale smacked their glasses and laughed, Trickster was dancing about trying to get Ace to join in, Priest muttering some pray he made up while King and Mob silent drank to not disturb them, and Emperor was twirling his drink while he was doing something on his tablet.

'Everything is now set in place.' Thought Emperor with a sinister grin.

(Scene shift to Zack)

"And I have to say, it did its job pretty well." She said as she watched the anger in Zack's face appeared.

"You soN OF A BITCH!" Shouted Zack as the shadowy energy appeared over Zack as he charged at the creature.

"Oh please, a full-on attack is going to work." Said Splice as another portal opened in front of Zack as he went through it. "With this warping quirk a mutual friend of ours made, you can't land on hit on this creature." The creature looked back where the other portal was to be greeted with a blast to the face. As Zack appeared on the other side of the portal he fired a Shadow Blast from his hand. "Oh, Zack that was day one training you just used on my creature wasn't it?" Asked Splice in an angry voice.

Zack on the other hand didn't answer. He just fired blast after blast at Splice's creature with each being a direct hit. He then roared and raised his hand as it turned into a shadow claw and slashed at the creature severing one of its upper body hands.

Back on the ground

"He's losing control." Said Ryukyu. "EVERYONE KEEP HEADING TOWARDS THE EVAC AND DON'T LOOK BACK!" Everyone then ran towards the heroes waiting to take them to safety.

"ZACK!" Shouted Nejire as she was about to fly up and snap Zack out of it.

"Nejire, I need you to go help the others." Said Ryukyu,

"But Zack!" Screamed Nejire.

"Nejire, listen to me!" She said gripping Nejire's shoulders. "I know you're scared for him, I am too, but, the best way to help him is to get the civilians far away from here so he doesn't hurt them.

"Okay." Said Nejire with self-doubt wanting to be there to help. As she left Ryukyu breathed in and out.

"Please, wake up Zack." She said with tears going down her face. "Don't make us do that plan you and Nezu came up with." She remembered what Miriko told her what their ultimatum was if Zack ever lost control

Inside Zack's mind...

Zack opened his eyes to see a dark opened area and to... his eyes? "The hell am I?" He asked himself.

"Where in our mind." He said to himself... wait, what. Zack turned to the voice and saw what he expected to see, himself. He had the same hairstyle as Zack, except, his clothes. This self wore gloves like his except it had All Might's face scratched off on the left and the right had All For One's face scratched off, his shirt had the Devil's insignia on it eight pairs of horns on a goat skull with two on the head, two piercing through where the ears would be, two through the eyes, and two coming out of the jaw with each horn saying different words of sin from murder to suicide with each word crossed out except for that was blurred to Zack's vision, a jacket made out of flesh dyed in dried up blood with a key chain on the right sleeve with faces of heroes or villains with crossed-out eyes, but, the truly horrifying thing about it was each piece of flesh was either human and what looked like "animal skin", his pants were just ripped up jeans showing bones from the holes, and boots were the most horrifying thing about his outfit, it made Zack want to throw up.

"Uh, okay, Zack..., please for everybody's sanity call me Grimm, after our middle name." Interrupted Grimm as Zack was trying to figure out how to start the conversation.

"Okay, Grimm, why am I in our mind?" Asked Zack.

"Well, isn't it obvious?" Replied Grimm. "I'm the one piloting our body right now." It took a moment for Zack to figure out what he meant.

"I lost control." Said Zack with a shocked and horrified expression as he watched through their eyes and witnessed Splice's creature hitting them and not moving from it.

("What the hell, you didn't even budge!?" Shouted Splice as the creature's lower half went for another strike.)

"Yup, your worst nightmare has come to life." He said as he walked over to Zack. "You. Lost. Control. Of. Me." He said as he pushed his finger into Zack's chest. "Honestly, it was the best fucking decision of your life!" Zack then tried to grab Grimm only to feel himself be restrained. He looked down to see tentacles wrapping around his body.

"What the hell is this!?" Zack Shouted.

"That is your insecurities, doubt, despair, and fear holding onto you." Replied Grimm. "Basically, every negative thought 'you' built from being tortured by The Devils." Grimm then did a motion with his hands and from their eyes, Zack saw Grimm had made a scythe. "Surprised, yeah, I found that out on day one of my creation."

"When was that?" Asked Zack.

"I think you know when." Answered Grimm as he snapped his fingers a floating screen came on. Zack then saw something he didn't like to think about since that day. The day he saw his parents killed by Mob. Zack felt the sadness and anger rise out of him. "Oh, so you do remember him, yeah, that was pretty horrifying when we had to watch out parents die that day, the day you gave everything up that day and fell into the cage of despair and hopelessness."

"...Turn it off." Asked Zack.

"I'm sorry, I'm a bit busy using the true extent of our quirk to its fullest here." Replied Grimm with a smirk on his face.

"TURN IT THE FUCK OFF!" Shouted Zack as his hair stood up with shadows coming off it and his eyes glowing blood red.

"Yes!" Shouted Grimm as the screen flickered off. "That is the emotion you should be using, the hate, the anger, that murderous intent The Devil's wanted to use on the heroes!" He then stomped closer and grabbed Zack by the collar. "The ones that couldn't save us, the ones who didn't protect us because of fucking celebrities at that glorified mansion your parents took you to, the ones that cared about fame, money, and power, those are the people who should have died and not our damned parents!" Screamed Grimm as screens of made memories brought on by the Devil's teaching appeared and his eyes, Zack could see the look of despair in Grimm's eyes. "But, I digress, you showed me something different one day."

"I did?" Zack questioned with a lot of doubt.

("Come on Zack, you can do this!" Shouted Miriko.)

Zack knew that line. It what Miriko said during the bank robbery.

("He ain't going to do anything, he's just a scared kid," Said a bank robber pointing a machine gun at a civilian.)

("Help me please!" Shouted the person)

("Shut up!" Said the bank robber pulling the trigger.)

("No!" Shouted Zack as he raised his hand in memory and real life. When he did a Shadow Wall popped up blocking all the bullets.)

("The hell!?" Shouted the robber as he looked at the made wall. He then saw a claw appear from it and pushed him towards a wall slamming him into and knocking him unconsious and dropping the gun.)

("I'm not going to let you hurt anyone and that goes for any of you villians here!" Zack shouted with blood-red eyes.) The screen then turned off and Zack felt a shake.

"That was me in control of that moment there, not you, me." Said Grimm.

"I thought... That was you, no, you let me out and while I could have caused an absolute blood bath, I didn't." Interupted Grimm as Zack was trying to speak. "I just let you have that moment, gave you a false sense of security to get you to focus more on this side of you."

"This side of me?" Replied Zack with a confused look on his face. Grimm pointed up with his left hand as he used his right to do another Shadow Blast. Zack looked up to see a purple light, but, was chained up and had a huge padlock holding it.

"Is that the other half of my quirk?" Asked Zack.

"Yup and it's better to stay locked up, i mean, imagine how much "chaos" it could cause." Said Grimm. "But, the "chaos" actually made me feel something that day of the bank robbery."

"And that was?" He asked fearing Grimm's answer.

"Why do the heroes have to be the only ones to die?" Replied Grimm with a cheshrie grin as Zack stood there shocked. "I mean, heroes aren't the only ones at fault here." He pointed to the bank robber. "These villians wanted money and were willing to take innocent people's lives. Pfft, I say innocent when civilians can be just as guilty." A bunch of other screens appear. One showed a news article about how a man is being sued by his wife for cheating on her, another screen showed people ignoring a homeless child being ignored, however, a hero wearing gaudy clothing appears and ignores the child, and another was the view of a man jumping off a bridge with memories of abuse from his boss and family. "These are just scenarios I made up on the spot, but, I think they made the point." Grimm then flicked his wrist and screens dissapeared. "No matter what hero, doctor, therapist, or cop does more evil will just pop up, which leads to the solution we thought of so long ago and abandoned."

"Complete genocide," Said Grimm and Zack at the same time. The words stabbed Zack heart through like a knife. It was a thought he forgot once he got the courage to break free from the Devils grip, atleast he thought he did. It was still deep in his heart, he just hid it with false courage. "It" 'It' "Was" 'Wasn't' "A" 'A' "Lie." 'Lie.' Said Zack and _. Grimm just smiled there knowing he accomplished his goal, breaking his mind. All around them cracks appeared in the room and a grey liquid started gushing through.

"Ah, pure insanity." Said Grimm as cupped his hands togethor and drank from it. "Just how I like it." The room began to shake and blood started to mix with it. Grimm cupped his hands togethor again poured some on him and then Zack. "Well, better get back to it before we die." Grimm then made shadow claws appear on thier body and charged at Splice's creature.

Back in reality

"Zack" picked himself out of a building he pushed into by whatever hit him. He looked around to see Ryukyu in her dragon form attacking Splice's creature with everything she had along with other heroes like Mt. Lady, Best Jeanist, Cementoss, Endeavour, Kamui Woods, in short, any hero in Japan was there. Grimm then looked to see two heroes in front of him, one was Death Arms and the other was Backdraft.

"Hey, your alright kid." Said Death Arms. Grimm got up and felt his legs shake and almost fell but was caught by Backdraft.

"Easy, there Zack, you have a broken leg you shou... hahahaha!" Said Backdraft as Grimm laughed.

"Zack?" Asked Death Arms with concern. Grimm then made wings but, these were grey and while the wings were solid liquid could be felt dripping from them.

"Zack is dead." Said Grimm jumping the two pros. "Well, not dead, I guess, just broken right now." He then threw Death Arms into Backdraft and hovered off the ground and raised his hand starting a Shadow Blast. "The only one here right now is Grimm." But, before he could fire it, he was kicked by someone. The person who kicked him was Ingenium.

"Im sorry, Zack, but that was for your own good!" Shouted Ingenium.

"Good timing, Ingenium." Said Backdraft getting up.

"No time for thanks." He said as he looked at Grimm floating there dazed. "We got to wake up Zack from that state."

"I don't think we can." Said Death Arms.

"What do you mean?" Asked Ingenium.

"This thing isn't Zack, it called himself Grimm." He said getting in a fighting stance.

"But it's still him, right?" Asked a female voice on Death Arms communication device.

"I don't think so Yu, he said something about Zack being broken." He replied to Mt Lady.

"Then we're going with that plan you told me about, arent we?" Asked Yu with regret. "We're going to kill Zack." Before Death Arms could get a word out a solid pillar smashed into Death Arms chest.

"Death Arms!" Shouted Fat Gum as he arrived with Amajiki.

"Fat Gum, get Suneater out of here!" Shouted Ingenium as Grimm was fully undazed. When they got to Zack, Amajiki stood back in fear for a moment as he looked at his friend.

"Is that part of Zack's quirk?" Asked Amajiki.

"No, it's mine." Said Grimm as a pair of grey arms appeared from below his back and from his sides. "I'm calling it Living Insanity, mostly because it can do that." He point to where his body was and a clone of himself appeared.

"The he..."was all Death Arms could get out as the thing slammed into him. It then made a face but, it was falling apart and the red lights appearing out of its eyes. It then screamed and turned itself into a slime form and tried to shove itself down Death Arms throat before being blasted by Backdraft.

"Are you alright!?" Exclaimed Backdraft.

"As alright, i'm going to be." He said getting off the ground. "Might have to schedule a therapist appoinment after this."

"Zack, stop this isn't you!?" Shouted Fat Gum getting a glare from Grimm as more of those creatures were created from the liquid dripping off him.

"For the final time." Said Grimm getting annoyed. "Zack is not or is ever going to be here again, do not ever leave a message to him ever again." He said as his eyes went blood red and shined a cheshire grin.

Back with the Devils

"Well, this was an unexpected turn of events." Said King with his hands togethor.

"Was this the weapon we were trying to make?" Asked Mach with a horrified and confused look.

"No." Said Emperor as he looked at his tablet. "This is the one percent i mentioned when we started this project all those years ago."

"You mean this is "that" scenario." Said Ace as Trickster hid behind him in fear.

"The one where we all die." Said Nightingale as she shook.

"That would be it." Said the Emperor as he was getting ready to activate his quirk.

"May the Light help us all." Said Priest.

"I don't think any deity could save us now." Said Mob taking off his hat.

The Emperor raised his hand to only be stopped by King. "Not yet, my lord, I think will be intresting in how things turn out." He said.

"Are you fucking kidding me!?" Shouted Splice as she was "unpossessed." "This is the scenario we dreaded and you want to watch it!?"

"I thought you were a scientist?" Asked King.

"I am, but, even I know when something is going to go to hell!" She shouted.

"I'm willing to wait for a moment." Said the Emperor lowering his hand.

"WHAT!" Exclaimed Splice in utter shock. Emperor gave her a look of obey my orders. She did and went back into the possessed state.

"Tell me, what are you thinking is going to happen?" Whispered Emperor.

"Forgive me my lord, but, I looked into your journal." Whispered King.

"So you know how this ends." He said to King with a emotionless look. King was silent as he watched the screen. 'This is going better then i planned.' Thought Emperor as he grinned to the side.

Inside Zack's mind

"Oh, this is going beautifully!" Exclaimed Grimm as he saw his work attack the heroes. One had managed to overtake The Fly that had just arrvied to help and had cut into his neck and started to drink his blood and grow. Another had bit into Fat Gum taking some skin off his arm to be blasted by Backdraft destroying it.

("Their weak to water, Manual, I need a hand over here!" Shouted Backdraft.)

"Well damn, guess i need to go back to the drawing board on the structure of my helpers." He said while blocking an attack from Amajiki. He then used a Shadow Blast but, Amajiki blocked with his oyster hands.

"What do you think Zack?" He asked his counter part knowing he gets nothing out of him. "Yeah, i think if I fire my quirk's liquid into the oyster mouth he'll be hurt as well."

'Zack' Said the voice from earlier.

'Who are you' Said Zack.

'You are not weak, you are strong.' Said the voice.

'But, I'm a monster, i lied to myself for so long.' He said with despair. 'I'm no hero.'

'Yes, you are.' Said the voice. 'You broke out of the Devil's grasp, you can break out of Grimm's grasp.'

'I can't' Said Zack. 'Even if i did, my life is pretty much ruined.'

'No it's not, you have people who care about you and love you.' Said the voice. 'Don't let your fallen self get a hold of you.'

"Ha, it worked, oh man, he's in so much pain!" Shouted Grimm. He then saw Splice's creature smash Ryukyu into the ground. "Oh man, i think your dragon hero friend is down for the count."

'The heroes may give me another chance, but, thier trust?' Said Zack with mourn.

'They know you better then this Zack.' Said the voice. 'You told them the dangers a long time ago, they knew the risks.'

'...' Silence, pure silence from Zack to the mysterious voice.

'And if you don't believe anyone loves you anymore, well, look who came back.' Said the voice as Zack looked. Through thier eyes they saw Nejire flying back towards Zack.

"Nejire?" Questioned Zack.

"Huh, your suppose to be broke!" Exclaimed Grimm. As he was about to walk to Zack he stopped and looked through thier eyes. "Wait, that blue haired chick came back for you?" He asked in shock.

("Zack, I'm here!" Shouted Nejire as she fought through Grimm's clones.)

"Wow, she's not even phazed by us." Said Grimm.

'Run!' Shouted Zack.

'If you want to help her.' Said the voice.

"Damn she's an idiot." He said reading a sharp blade made from the liquid.

("I don't care what you are!" Shouted Nejire getting closer.)

'I have to help her.' Said Zack as he tried to escape the tentalcles.

'You can just stay calm' Said the voice. 'And use your quirk.'

'My quirk got me into this mess!' Exclaimed Zack.

'Not your demonic side.' Said the voice. 'Your other side.' As the voice said Zack could feel something inside glow. It brought all the good memories to light, the happy ones, the ones that make you feel human.

"That's right you dumb bitch come closer to your dear old Zack." Said Grimm with his cheshire grin.

'Let the good in.' Said the voice as if Zack could feel it's hands touch his shoulders. 'And the evil out' Zack focused on the memories and breathed listening to the voice's advise. 'And let everyone's love in.'

"And now..." He said showing the blade.

'Because while your quirk maybe demonic.'

"You." Said Grimm as raised the blade.

'Your other side is angelic.' Said voice as the tentacles around Zack started to fade away.

("I will always love you!" She shouted as she hugged Zack.) Zack then broke free from the tentacles and lunged at Grimm sceaming. Grimm turned around just in time to be punched in the chest... with a glowing blade of light.

'And this side of you is what brings hope into people's hearts and lives.' Said the voice.

Grimm couldn't believe it. He broke him. He broke Zack. So, what the hell happened that made him break free from that pit of hell he created, to finding himself gripping his chest in pain.

"How... did you?" He asked in confusion. All of the sudden the room began to shake, the cracks filled in, and the insanity and blood started to evaporate.

"WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Shouted Grimm in anger.

"I found my hope." Answered Zack as a loud crack was heard. Zack and Grimm looked up and saw the a chain had broken free and the ground.

("Hey, look the clones are shaking!" Shouted Manual.)

("Your right!" Shouted Fat Gum.)

(Zack, are you okay!" Shouted Nejire as she let go of him and the blade in Grimm's hand faded away.)

"No, NO, THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" Exclaimed Grimm in horror. "I HAD CONTROL, I WAS IN CONTROL!" Another chain crashed to the ground.

"You were, but, only because i let you." Said Zack as another chain fell and as he walked forward to Grimm causing him to back away from Zack. "I let the pain and fear of my past blind me for so long I forgot my light and relied on my dark side." Four more chains fell from the ceiling and light shined down from above. Grimm grabbed his head and screamed.

("Zack!" Shouted Nejire. "Why is he gripping head, is he in pain!")

("No." Said Ingenium as he walked closer to Zack. "Grimm is the one in pain.")

"He's right you know." Said Zack. "You were created out of my hate, my despair, my doubt, and my pain." He then hit Grimm again fling him backward. "And because of that, you became blind to all the people around me that were helping me in ways you couldn't understand.

"But, we were going to kill everyone, everyone that hurt us!" Shouted Grimm

("Kill everyone!" Shouted Death Arms.)

("It's okay. Said Nana as she walked up to the others.)

("Nana, is All Might alright!?" Exclaimed Backdraft.)

("Yes he is." She said kneeling towards Zack. "Grimm was it?")

Grimm looked through thi... no Zack's eyes and the look Nana was giving him.

"Nana, Nejire, and so many others are the reason i found my hope again, Grimm." Said Zack as Grimm tried to look away, but Zack grabbed his head and forced him to look. "And are the reason people like you won't ever harm me again."

("If you ever comeback and harm my family again, I will personally fight you myself and force you out of Zack." She said with a glare.)

"S, she can't do that!" Grimm Stuttered. "She doesn't h, have that power!" The final chains then started to fall.

"I don't know her quirk is pretty special." Zack said with a grin as he watched the padlock start to shatter.

"You won't be r, rid of me!" Shouted Grimm. "Well, always be apart of each o, other!"

"Yeah, we will." Said Zack. "But, with me finally being able to use my other half of my quirk, something tells me, you'll won't be bothering me for a long time." As he said that the padlock begins to fall and the ceiling begin's to crack. Grimm then got up from the ground and held his fists to his side.

"Oh yeah, what's going to happen when you need to use your demonic side, your darkness, you'll lose control again and I'll be waiting to break you again!" Shouted Grimm as he goes to punch Zack.

"I won't lose control again because i know the consequnces awaitng me if i do." Said Zack as the light final breaks through. "So for now, this is goodbye, Grimm." The light then engulfs both of them, but, before Zack exit's his mind he says a name, "Thanks Angie, for waking me up."

Back in reality

"AHHHHH!" Screamed Grimm as Zack's other qurik activated causing a light to come of thier mouth eyes as it engulfed everyone around him. The light reached Splice's creature causing them to turn and blind them.

'What in the hell is going on now!?" Splice Thought. 'Wait, his original quirk was an energy quirk, he couldn't have unlocked it!? Not after all we did to lock it away!' As the light faded away, Grimm's clones were gone, any wounds dealt by him were healed, and Zack was gone from he stood.

"What the hell just happend!?" Exclaimed Death Arms.

"Fly's wound!" Shouted Manual as he looked were the clone bit into Fly's neck. "It's been healed!"

Amajiki looked at his hand and notice the damage caused to it was undone. "All our wounds have been healed." He said staring at his hand. As everyone was busy in shock, Nejire looked for Zack.

"Wait, where's Zack!?" She asked terrified.

"Fighting his demons with his quirk." Said Nana as looked towards the creature.

"His quirk is what caused this... not that qurik." Shouted Death Arms as Nana interrupted him.

"His other quirk, the one the Devil's sealed away." She said smiling. 'Go get 'em, kid.

(Scene Shift)

'Dammit, i can't see anything' Thought Splice seeing a blurred image of a person in front them with... Is that an angel?' As her vision cleared up she could finally see who was in front of her.

"Hey Splice got something for ya." Said Zack as lunged a sword made of purple light into the right eye of the head below.

"AHHHHH!" She screamed. "YOU MOTHER... UGH!" She began to say as Zack pulled out the sword and jump backward with clear purple wings on his back.

"Language now, children are being forced to watch this." He cockily said. Zack didn't look like a demon any more. He was back to his regular out fit he wore to the parade expect everything was dyed in purple light.

"How the hell did you get that quirk back!" Exclaimed Splice as she swung the guilloting towards Zack. He then made a barrier and blocked it.

"Simple." Said Zack as he then coldly started into her eye. "I woke up and escaped the Devil's grasp." He raised his hand and made the barrirer crash into Splice's creature sending them flying backward.

"Zack?" Asked Mt Lady as she picked herself off the ground in her normal from rubbing her eyes. "What the hell was with that light show?" She then looked as Zack and noticed the purple light. "Wait, is that your... YOU STUPID EXPERIMENT!" Said Yu before Splice shouted and interupting her.

"Maybe we talk about this later." Replied Zack as he got rid of the sword and raised his hand and fingers. Splice then flew towards him. As she did five bullets of engery appeared disappeard. She then grinned and used her creatures warping quirk to sending them behind her.

"Is that the best your new quirk can do?" She mockingly asked as she raised a claw. Zack then pulled his hand back as she got closer. "And what is that suppose to do?" She then saw red pass by her and noticed she getting closer to the ground. She looked backward and was horrified to notice that her wings were gone. "You!" Was all she could get out as she crashed into the ground.

"You did it!" Shouted Yu.

"Not yet." He said noticing she was getting back up. The creature had adapted and made another set of arms were made to use as legs. The front half of the creature raised it's head and roared as the lower half seperated its arms seperating the guillotine into two dangerous blades.

"YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!" Yelled Splice as she made the creature throw bladed arm down through a portal to reach Zack. He was able to dodge and pick up Yu before the blade hit them both.

"Yu go help the others." Said Zack.

"But, the other heroes... are dealing with my mess i intend to own up for." She was about to say before Zack interupted her.

"That wasn't... it is, I let Grimm get control of me because I was weak. " Said Yu as Zack interrupted her as made another five bullets with his left hand and shot them at Splice. "Believe me you're not going to win this argument, Miriko knows from experience." Yu just stood there baffled by Zack's words, but she accepted them and ran off in the end.

'Okay, now let's finish this.' He thought as he pulled his arms back. Splice then made the creature create several more portals to block each one from hitting her child.

"If you think you're going to win this your far from it." She said as the upper head lunged at Zack trying to bite him. "We will kill you and your new "family."

"You can definitely try, but, I'm not going to let you." Said Zack creating another barrier and using it to block a blade coming right at him. "But, we will always be there to stop you." As he was speaking he didn't notice the arm coming through the portal and hitting across the field.

"Oh you talk big, Zack, but you belong to us!" She said raising both blades. "And you'll die by our hand and our hand only!" As she lowered the blades she noticed that she stopped. "WHAT THE HELL!" She tried to move out of Zack's trap, but, couldn't whatever he created she couldn't move. "JUST WHAT DID YOUR QUIRK DO!?"

"Astral Hope." Said Zack.

"WHAT!" Shouted Splice.

"My quirk, the one you Devils took away from me." He said gripping his fist. She could feel the tension being pressed against her as if... 'That little' Thought Splice realizing what he did. "The first half of my plan was making those bullets or super move that I call "Bullet Hell Barrage," to weaken and distract you." Said Zack as he brought his arms together applying more pressure on the creature. "I then add another barrage but this time added invisible lines of light I can only see, that's where we are now in this fight of ours."

"You little worm." She said sneering. "You can't undo what we've done!"

"No, I can't, but I can sure as hell stop you whenever you monsters arrive." Said Zack as his arms reached his shoulders. "And I'll make sure as hell that I am your "Final Judgement." He said pulled his arms away from his body. When he did his threads of light had pierced through the entire creature turning it into a bloody gory oblivion.

(Scene shift: Devil's base)

"FUCK!" Shouted Splice as she gripped her head in pain. Everyone was silent, each feeling a different emotion from Zack's speech.

"Like hell, he can take us down." Said Mach being the first to speak.

"Don't underestimate the unexcepted, Mach, it'll come back to haunt you." Said Ace walking out of the room with Trickster right behind him.

'Stupid King for adding that quirk he got from All For One it did nothing!' She yelled in her head. 'And that dumb camera he added to my baby, sure it proved his point, but, look where we are now, that exper...'

"Here." Said King as he gave Splice pain medication for her headache, interrupting her though process.

"Thanks." She said grunting as she swallowed it. "Wait you said you couldn't make chemicals how the hell did you make medication!?" King then pulled out a bottle from his pocket.

"You gave this to me." He said nonchalantly. Splice decided to not saying anything after that and left the room.

"So, my lord, what do we... Please leave me and King alone for now." Said Emperor interrupting Priest.

"...Yes, my lord." He replied leaving the room with Mob as he silently got up from the chair.

"Someone's in trouble." Said Nightingale mockingly as she left the room.

"So, I guess, I'll leave too." Said Mach feeling the tension in the room.

As everyone left Emperor closed the screen with his tablet and pulled a file that said "The Real True Devil's."

"So, seeing how you know you're in this." Said Emperor coldly. "How much of my journal did you read?"

"Only the first half, my lord, it was time for project Clover and I put it back where I found it." Said King being honest trying not to get a rise out of his master.

"Then you know about me and what I'm truly after?" He asked King with the same cold voice.

"I do." Said King. "And want to help you with it." Emperor just smiled at the sound of that.

"As expected from my most trusted subordinate." He said getting ready to open the file. "Before I do open this, do you have any questions?"

"Just two." Replied King.

"And they are?" Asked Emperor.

"Which of the nine of us are the four from this world." Asked King. "And how much of this world have you distorted for this plan." Emperor chuckled as he opened the file.

"In due time, Arthur." Said Emperor. "In due time."

(Scene shift)

Zack was out of breath, his muscles ached, and he sure as hell knew when he got back to U.A. Nezu would give him more training with Gran Torino... oh he ached just thinking about the pain he was going to feel for the next nine months.

"Zack!" Shouted a crying Nejire as Amajiki the heroes followed right behind her. Zack just smiled as she stood in front of him. He felt love, he felt the happiness Nejire was giving, he felt... the stinging sensation on his face? Yeah, sure enough somewhere after the happy vibe Nejire gave she slapped him and then she grabbed him the shoulders and... kissed him?

"...Okay, I'm confused are you happy or mad?" Asked a very confused Zack.

"Both." She said with a frown as it turned into a smile. "But, I'm just glad you're alright."

"We all are kid." Said Miriko as she hugged him. "You tell anyone I did that I'll pound you into next week."

"Yeah, I think several people beat you to the punch." Said Zack as he chuckled. Nana then stood by Zack with a smile on her face one of... wait that's not... 'WHACK'! As Zack was about to swear Nana then hugged him glad that he was alright. 'Women are confusing.' Thought Zack.

(Scene shift)

It's officially been two weeks since the event now called "Devil's Night." Over two thousand lives were taken because of the Devil's attack. As for Captain Celebrity, a statue was made in his honor for all the good he has done over the years, and his family was given a bountiful check to cover living conditions for the next few years... though money will never bring back her Christopher or give their child the fatherly love they need in the future. As for Zack, he was questioned by the World Government about his connection with The True Devils... needless to say, he didn't hold back. Some of the attendee's were horrified, some were disgusted, and some threw up. After careful consideration they let him go seeing how he was a victim, however, he wasn't allowed to do hero work for nine months, not because of Grimm... okay technically because of him, but, they knew Zack wasn't the reason for Grimm existence so they were easy on him. Zack, however, took it as a torture sentence because he knew what was waiting for him at the end of the tunnel.

"Stop daydreaming and get back to practice!" Exclaimed Gran Torino. Zack knew better than to argue with him he just silently backtalked him in his mind. "And no backtalk or another hundred reps!" 'HOW THE HELL DID HE!?' Thought Zack in shock.

"Apologies, Torino, but may I have a word with Young Zack?" Asked Toshinori as he enters Sorahiko's home.

An hour of talking later...

"I'm sorry, did I hear that right?" Asked Zack.

"Yes, you did Zack." Said Toshi as he extended a hand onto Zack's shoulder. "You are the new number 1 hero of Japan." Zack just sat there in silence. "Um, Zack?" has stopped working attempting reboot... reboot failed.

"Hold on, they just can't dump that on him like a sack of bricks!" Exclaimed Torino shaking the table.

"I was in shock by their decision as well." He said with a stern look. "And you can imagine that Endeavour didn't take it well."

'Well, there's a plus to this madness.' Thought Zack.

"This is just the Hero Commission trying to create a security blanket for themselves." Said Torino with his head down. "Their number one hero is taken out by a powerhouse and they add to the flames by adding another powerhouse to the position."

'And there is my cue to break this topic.' Thought Zack not wanting to go into politics again... for the third time this week. "So, All Might, how your successor take the news?" Asked Zack.

"... To say he was down would be an understatement." Said Toshi. "But, I told Izuku that everything was all right." He then looked at his hand. "I knew that it would be time to pass on One For All eventually and I'm glad I found a great successor."

"Speaking of which, you told Nighteye, right?" Asked Zack. There was only silence. "You did tell him, right?"

"So, Zack, another reason I came to see you is to ask a favor." He said avoiding the question.

'That bad, huh.' Thought Zack and Torino. "Okay, what's the favor?" Asked Zack.

"Could you help Nana train Izuku?" Asked Toshi.

"Wouldn't Nana take offense to this?" He asked All Might. "I mean this involves her too?"

"I don't think that's where he's going with this kid." Said Torino.

"He's right." Said Toshi as he stood up. "I want you and Nana to help Izuku become the next Symbol of Peace." He then extended his hand. "Do you... Sure." Said Zack as he interrupted All Might. "...WAIT YOU ACCEPTED THAT EASILY!?" Exclaimed Toshi.

"WHY DID YOU QUESTION HIM IF YOU WERE GOING TO SAY YES SO QUICKLY AFTER!?" Exclaimed Torino.

"Well, I didn't want to take Nana's position away." Replied Zack. "I mean she knows more about One For All than me." Toshi and Torino just sighed.

"I'm glad your on board, because, this will be a tough battle." Said Toshi.

"Hey, I'm up for a challenge." Said Zack cockily. "So, what's his quirk?" An awkward silence filled the air. "Oh, come one it can't be that bad, I mean, it's not like he's quirkless?" Another awkward silence. "Wait is he, actually quirkless?" Anot..."HE IS!?" He said shocked.

"He has the spirit of a hero, Zack." Said Toshi. "Everything that I also see in you."

"That's well and great in all, but, that's not going to stop One For All from blowing him to pieces!" Exclaimed Zack.

"I'm working on that, well, Nana is." He said as he stuck his hand into this pocket. "Izuku is cleaning up Dagobah Municipal Beach Park."

"Okay, that takes care of death." Said Zack sarcastically. "You have him doing other things right?"

"Of course." Said Toshinori hading him a schedule of training and health. Zack to a look at it for few minutes.

"Well, that's good, I guess I don't have to worry too much." He said putting the schedule down. "Okay, so who should I look for if I have to go pick him up?"

"Well about that, his mother doesn't exactly know what we are doing." Said Toshi. Zack and Torin exchanged looks before turning back towards All Might.

"Okay, I get this is a secret in all, but, don't you think you should tell the mother before you give Izuku a quirk that turns his insides to outsides?" Asked Zack.

"He's right Toshi, she deserves to know." Said Torino. "This is a kid your giving One For All to."

"Yeah, Nana got after me for that as well." He said as he rubbed his neck. "But, don't worry she said she takes care of it."

"So, until then, what does Izuku look like?" Asked Zack. All Might then pulled a picture out from his pocket and gave it to Zack. Zack stood there for a minute staring. He then put his hand together and looked at All Might. "Toshi, please tell me has combat training experience, something, like karate or ju-jitsu." He said with pleading eyes.

"I... actually don't know." Said Toshi.

"WHAT THE FUCK, ALL MIGHT!" Yelled Zack.

"Now Zack I know what your thinking... HOW THE HELL DID YOU NOT ASK HIM THIS!?" Yelled Zack again interrupting Toshi trying to plead with him.

"This is going to be a long nine months." Said Torino with his palm on his face.

Prologue Epilogue

(Inside Zack's mind)

"I can't believe this!" Shouted Grimm as he tried to shake from the chains that were attached to him. "I was supposed to take control right there and then!"

'Relax, you'll get your moment.' Said a man's voice.

"Yes, because this is the position I want to be in now!" He sarcastically said to the man.

'It will get better, trust me.' Said the man.

'I fail to see how this would get better.' Said Grimm.

'Good you're using your mind instead of your voice.' Said the man. 'Now I came here to tell you that Zack will be a teacher at UA.'

'I knew that already.' He said annoyed. 'Tell me something useful.'

'Now calm down.' Said the man. 'He still has to assemble his class.'

'And how does that help me?' Asked Grimm. The man's voice then whispered something to him and Grimm made his cheshire grin. 'Really and that will work?'

'It will trust me.' Said the man as his voice started to fade. 'Just remember you have to make him go to...' Said the man as Grimm then laugh like a mad man.

'Oh, Zack, will be meeting again sooner than you thought.' Said Grimm as he made plans to achieve his new goal.

And that's for the prologue, finally. I hope you enjoyed it and what's to come. Especially, Grimm, he wasn't originally going to be in it, but, after watching videos it hit me, "I should try to create a Chara/TKO personality that describes or characterizes the dark side of his quirk." I admit while I'm with how I created Grimm, I do wonder if I should have done more or maybe even less (it's kinda a back and forth question I still think of wondering if I went too crazy with his creation or if introduced him to early.) Either way, I felt like it had to be done. As for questions about Mach's quirk, yes, I'm aware another character has the same quirk, but, he's going to be a casualty of Devil's Night, as for who takes his place he'll be introduced later. As for when that is a surprise. And as I said Chapter 1 won't take as long because I know what I want to write for the chapter so it shouldn't take too long. I know I have a lot of character's to introduce, but, I will get this chapter out (not in a rushed up sense, I am going to take my time if needed, but, like I said I have an idea where the chapter is going to go.)
