"It will begin soon." Izuku muttered as he leaned back in his chair. All around him machinery was moving at apt speed as Cell watched over his shoulder. "What do you mean sir?" Cell inquired. "U.A. is going to attack the League of Villains soon. I have no doubt about it." Izuku replied. "So, are we going to take part in it?" Cell asked.
Izuku shook his head. "We have more important things to attend to, namely creating a small legion of remote controlled submersibles while moving the lair." He said before turning to Cell. "But what about me? I have nothing to do?" Cell argued as his eyes narrowed. "If you want, you can watch the coming fight. But do not get close to it under any circumstances." Izuku warned Cell. "Yes sir." Cell replied with slight joy.
"But remember the main rule." Izuku warned Cell. "Don't be seen." Cell replied. "Good, now I have to test the latest design for the subs." Izuku said before he looked back at the screen. Cell just continued looking over his shoulder, an anxious twitch in his knees. Izuku almost sighed, before turning back to the genetic hotchpotch. "Do you want to go now?" he asked. Cell wordlessly nodded. "Then go, just be back before the fighting gets worse." Izuku said as Cell just disappeared with a tunnel of wind.
Izuku ran a hand through his hair and returned it to its normal mess of curls. He sighed before changing one of his screens to the video feeds around the Kamino Ward. It would only be a few hours now, and he told his mother that he'd be at the warehouse all night.
Shouto just rubbed the back of his head against the wall of his cell in boredom. He knew they had taken several of his classmates and even members of class 1-B hostage. Yet the only other person in a cell that he knows about is Bakugou.
The Quirk Suppressing cuffs around his wrists just made it harder to do anything. He couldn't use his ice, and he'd never use that bastard's fire. All he could do was wait to be rescued, if the heroes are sending in people to rescue them.
The faint thrashing of chains followed by the loud sounds of an electric collar going off just reminded Shouto of who was in the cell right next to his. "You should really stop doing that Bakugou, those collars have enough power to shock you for a week straight." He said with annoyance in his voice. He was all alone with his thoughts, and all Bakugou could do was make even more noise than usual. The thrashing of chains just grew louder before Bakugou was shocked yet again.
The sound of footsteps caught his attention as Shouto looked out at the entrance of his cell. "Yeah, that punk has been rather annoying, hasn't he?" Tomura asked as he looked down at Shouto. He didn't have that creepy hand mask on, just his normal dry face. "What do you want?" Shouto asked as he looked at the villain with annoyance.
"You see Todoroki, I have been meaning to make some new recruits. So far we only have you and Explodey over there, but I think we can grow the League together." Tomura said. "What makes you think I'd join you guys?" Shouto asked with venom. "Simple, I know that you've suffered abuse dur to society's obsession with heroes." Tomura said.
"How?" Shouto whispered. "You can use Ice and Fire, yet you never use your fire even if it could mean victory. You're emotionally withdrawn and cold too everyone around you. When people look at Bakugou they seen a violent punk, but all they see when they look at you is the Son of Endeavor." Tomura said as Shouto glared at him. "Get to the point." Shouto sneered.
"Imagine if, rather than becoming a hero with only a half assed strength to spite the bastard, you became a villain to strike a powerful blow to him." Tomura offered. Shouto said nothing, just glaring at Tomura. "You're considering it, I don't expect you to answer just yet. Just know that if you do join us you won't regret it." Tomura said before he walked out of the cell.
He could here footsteps before Tomura walked into Bakugou's cell and began speaking. Shouto blanked it out as his mind began running through his options. He could become a villain, spite that bastard with full force. Or he could continue on his current path to be a hero. A tough decision, one that could lead to his death if he picks the wrong one.
The building shook and Tomura began running. Shouto knew what it meant, The Heroes were here.
Cell just watched from his vantage point as All Might poweres through a small mob of Noumus. The beasts and their numerous Quirks useless in the face of his sheer power. He could feel his nano machines shift through his body, ready for him to push onwards.
Heroes pushed into the League's base, using All Might as the spearhead. Noumus and unlucky villains were simply brought down and cuffed with little effort. Tomura had a small group behind him, Kurogiri far in the back, unconscious.
"Smart, take out the warper first." Cell heard the Master comment in his mind. 'Sir?' Cell asked. "I'm in your head, between the nano machines and some of your inherent factors I can connect your mind tot he network." The Master quickly explained. 'You can see through my eyes?' Cell asked. "Yes, I'm doing it right now." Master replied. 'Good.' Cell stated before he leapt downwards.
"Don't get caught." Master warned. 'I know.' Cell replied as he braced his legs and sped up. he burst through one of the lower vents and proceeded through the lair. His figure was hidden by shadows and corners as he delved deeper. The Heroes weren't far behind him, ready to rescue the students will all the grace of a burning building.
Finally he made it to the Noumu room and leapt to the rafters. He could see the lines of cells full of students, and the near hundred Noumu. Each student was withdrawn, hugging their knees into their faces. At the hack of the room was a line of sealed doors with metal along each of them.
An alarm echoed out before he heard the doctor's voice speak over the intercom. "RELEASE SPECIMENS ONE THROUGH SIX!!" the comms shouted. Students shook as the Noumus opened the line of doors at the back. Six bizarre Noumus blitzed out, tearing their way through anything in their path. Cell just watched as they carved a line through the Noumu and made for the heroes.
Well he now knows why they were locked up.
Looking down he had to grimace at all the prey just haphazardly ruined by their leave. The rest of the Noumus didn't seem to care, just going back to business. Cell could hear the Six specimens make contact with the Heroes, and the chaos they brought.
He sensed something else happen as the League members who hadn't been captured yet alongside two students were warped in by a viscous black sludge. All For One stepped forward and sighed. He gave a quick glance up to where Cell was hiding and Cell just stared down at him. Afo turned back to Tomura and the rest of the League. "Get going, I'm going to have the escape tunnel sealed in a few minutes." He calmly said as the League picked themselves up.
"See you Sensei." Tomura said as he led them through a back door. Afo just nodded before he turned his eyes back to the main entrance to the room. Cell could feel the fear emanating from the students in the cells as he strode forward. "He took their Quirks." His Master commented. Cell just watched as Afo picked up the blond thrashing student with a muzzle before his finger tips turned a deep crimson.
Both watched in silence before the students muzzled scream echoed through the room. The other students just watched in horror as Afo dropped the boy. Afo turned to the other boy before looking over him. He let his hand grab the boy's head before doing the same to him, yet he didn't scream.
As he was finished a Noumu was thrown past him and All Migt surged forth. All signs of his signature smile gone, replaced with a look of pure wrath. "ALL FOR ONE!!!!" All Might shouted before punching him right in the face. Afo was sent flying into the wall as the other heroes filed in. "Get the students out of here, I'm going to finish this." All Might instructed as Afo stood back up unfazed.
In a flash of motion All Might had barreled into Afo and pushed him upwards. Cell followed after them as they took their fight to the streets above.
Stain watched from afar with a set of binoculars as destruction rained across the Kamino ward. Police and Heroes were hard at work evacuating civilians as All Might was locked in battle with an armored menace. He could hear the taunting words the man shouted as he battled against the number one hero with a wide menagerie of Quirks.
Stain and his Disciples were all left shocked as many powers swirled around the man, no demon. hard light and moving earth, great constructs of fire and water, the air itself seemed to strain as the demon continued pelting the number one hero with attack after attack. All Might tried to stay strong, yet he seemed to be pushed to his limits.
His Disciples had to physically hold him back as he grit his teeth. "Sir please you'll die if you go there." Spinner said as he kept both hands on Stain's shoulders. "I can't just stand around." Stain argued as he dropped the binoculars. Willow caught them before looking out at the battle themself. "No one can get with fifty meters of the fight. Anyone who'se tried has been cut to shred bo matter their method of approach." they warned before turning to the others.
The ground shook as the clash between the greatest hero and the greatest villain grew more intense. "Make it seventy five meters." Willow commented. "Yeah, boss was terrifying." A quieter voice commented. Mustard just watched as the two clashed with his own set of binoculars. "Don't push your luck." Reaper said. "I'm just saying. The first thing I saw him do was steal a Quirk before using it to melt the man's throat." Mustard said.
Everyone paused as the ground continued shaking.
"You said steal?" Stain asked. "Yes, the infamous Quirk Theif of legend. A living Demon Lord." Mustard said before a bright pillar of light shot to the sky. Stain used this chance to elbow the Disciples holding him back as he rushed forward. Spinner and Bersekrr tried to stop him, but Stain was already several rooftops away.
"What's wrong All Might, lost that fire?!!" Afo shouted as a mass of energy gathered in his hand. All Might just grit his teeth as he rested on one knee. He was bleeding, a lot, and his bones were screaming in pain.
This may be his last fight.
He never even got a chance to pass on One For All.
"No bite, fine then." Afo said before firing the ball at him. His body surged forth, moving at nigh impossible speeds before he took that energy in his grasp. His hands ached in pain before he let the power of Ofa aid him. The ball was tossed back, yet Afo calmly dispelled it with the flick of his hand.
"I'm not done yet. All For One." All Might said before he pushed himself further. He let out a battle cry as he rushed onwards, ignoring the screaming pain of his body. Afo just gave a feral smile before his body started to swell. As All Might reached him Afo gave him a right hook to the jaw. All Might countered with a strike against his solar plexus.
Afo barely faltered as their battle degenerated into a brutal clash of fists. Blood covered his eyes as All For One stabbed through his old wound. "You know All Might, I always like killing my enemies up close and personal. Let's me see their faces as they die." Afo said before throwing All Might through several buildings.
All Might just hauled himself up, feeling several broken bones across his body. "You have no soul." All Might said as he forced himself to stand up. "That is why I have no fear." Afo replied as he threw the upper half of another building at him. All Might felt the several tons of metal and concrete crash right into him, yet he tried to stay strong.
Afo seemed to be smoking, almost burning even.
All Might pulled himself up, his body broken and only held by the strength of One For All. "I'm not ready to fall yet." All Might said as his body began smoking. "Your body disagrees All Might." Afo said while pointing down at him. Both stepped forward, preparing for one another's next strike.
Only for something to happen.
The armor that Afo wore, broke. It started from the right ankle, cracks of in the metal that traveled along the whole body. Afo only had a second before several plates broke off.
All Might used this chance, gritting his teeth and clenching his fist. "Take this All For One, United States of Smash!!!!" All Might shouted as he pulled everything into his fist. Afo staggered from the shock of his armor breaking before All Might's fist struck his face and send him sprawling into the ground.
A massive crater formed as the entire ward shook.
In the centre All Might stood tall. His body smoking as his muscles slowly faded. He held up his hand in victory, standing tall over the broken body of All For One.
