Heroes Never Die It's Hero Time

by Guardian-Sigil

One would think that in a world where everyday people possess impossible abilities nothing would really be a surprise. Izuku Midoriya, who upon the age of four was diagnosed as quirkless, was denied of his dream of become a hero that can save everyone with a smile. But fate gives him a chance; allowing him access not to one but a universe of powers and abilities.

88. Ch:81 Induction

*I am not a professional writer. I never even took a writing course, and I tried writing two other stories before this. And one of them was for MHA as well. But for my first story I lost 3 whole chapters before they could be uploaded, and I lost interest. And my MHA Next gen was going nowhere. But then one day I decided to revisit Ben Ten and then I thought of this question "What if Deku had the Omnitrix?" I then spent months coming up with ideas, sorting the aliens, plot, characters, etc. Before I wrote the first chapter around the time the Invader Zim movie came out. And then on this day 4 years ago I took the chance and posted this story. Thinking at the time that this is for fun and that I probably won't get that many readers. But I did have the goal to keep going even as I barely got one review per chapter. And 4 years later…my expectations have been completely BLOWN OUT OF THE WATER!

Words cannot describe how happy I am that I am still going with this and it's all thanks to your guys, my readers and reviewers. Any and all feedback I have gotten through every chapter and event is literally the only thing keeping me motivated to keep going. And I plan to. Sure, I had hoped I would be further along, but I think the quality of the chapters speak for themselves. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you all for joining me on this story and I hope you'll be around as we continue on. Thank you.

And in celebration we have a new BR-Fact and a new piece of artwork so look for the link below.

*BR-FACT* Thanks again to Ray Ethon for providing these. Today's BR-Fact is Big Chill. Now Big Chill has two names in Portuguese. The first being "Calafrio" which literally means "Chill." The name even has "Frio" in its name, which means "Cold." On a whole, it means Cold shiver/chill/thrill. And yeah, sometimes Calafrio is used in the same context of Thrill.

Now the second name is "Friagem," which also means Chill in a literal translation, but hold on! "Friagem" is used in the same context of a cold wind. "Get back indoors! You're catching "Friagem!" It is also a superstition, because before, people thought that being in a cold environment makes you catch a COLD more easily. So, this one word has a lot of strange meanings...Cool! PUN NOT INTENDED!

*ARTWORK!* We have a new piece of fanart to celebrate this story's 4th Year Anniversary! It's called "Heroes Never Die It's Hero Time - 4th Ani Poster" by the artist "1206787" on DeviantArt or as they go by on fanfic. net "Vasto-Lorde-Ash-Ketchum." Here is the link below.

"To understand what I'm about to tell you, you need to do something first. You need to believe in the impossible. Can you do that? Good."

"Now I guess I should start at the beginning, his name is Izuku Midoriya. And his story is a very simple one, his whole life he's dreamed about nothing else than becoming a pro hero. A hero that can save anyone with a smile on his face. Just like his hero, All Might."

"There's just one problem, he's Quirkless… Yeah, bummer… It almost seemed like the whole universe was telling him to give up on his dream and he almost did…"

"But then after one day, he experienced something unexplainable, something unimaginable, something impossible."

"He found a watch that randomly washed up onto a beach near his home. And before he knew it, it stuck itself upon his wrist. And after that moment a whole new world was open to him."

"Now what was that watch? Well it's called the Omnitrix. What does it do? Well the first thing it can do is bind itself to the wearer's DNA making it near impossible to take off. But that's not the amazing part is it? No, the amazing part is that this device can transform its wearer into any alien species they wish. Giving them full control of their powers and abilities with no negative side effects. But that's all we know about it."

"We don't know who created it or why. All we do know is that it is the most powerful weapon in the entire galaxy. And he wants it."

"Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds has come to Earth to claim it for himself. Why does he wants it? Who knows? Probably for world domination…just a hunch."

"But getting it was never easy. Luckily for Deku, he found others who were ready to accept him to spur him on. Using his new powers, he got into U.A. He joined the Plumbers as a cadet. He led us through the U.S.J. attack. And then he took on the hero name Deku. He helped to take down the Hero Killer. We all teamed up to defeat Malware. And through it all he made friends, rivals, and enemies… He lost. He won. He grew. And he learned. We all did…"

"Now after months of plotting and scheming, Vilgax the Mad Titan, the Grand Destroyer! Has finally abducted Izuku Midoriya and our world's Symbol of Peace, All Might."

"What he is doing to them…we do not know. All we know is that they're trapped on his ship, the Chimeran Hammer. But we do know that those two are not going to lie down and take it. Vilgax wants to claim the Omnitrix for himself. The only advantage we have is that even if he manages to remove it, it will not work for him since it is bound to Deku's DNA. But then again, he wouldn't have taken them unless he had a plan. And that's what worries me…"

She finally runs out of breath. And Ochaco is left hanging her head before the entirety of her friends, teachers, and Plumbers.

Her friends: Shoto, Bakugou, Kirishima, Momo, and Iida stare on with a mix of wonder and nerves. While seated across from them with their arms and hands folded onto the conference table are their respected teachers who do their best to pay attention while also appearing indiscriminate. Although the occasional "Woah" can be heard escaping their lips.

All the while the Plumbers, Mina, and Ochaco stand at the front of the Plumber Base's conference room with the intent of filling their allies in on all their secrets.

This of course includes Mr. Baumann and the three mothers (Inko, Mitsuki, and Eirene) who are standing in the back opposite of the Plumbers with Mitsuki clutching the nervous Inko's hand while Eirene stands nearby ready to offer any and all support with a calm yet serene grace. Which just leaves Detective Tsukauchi seated at the head of the table. His brow furrowed and concentrated.

Seeing as no one is speaking up, Thirteen tries their best to settle any silent unrest. "I know that was a lot to take in. And I know you all still have a ton of questions. So, please bear with us as we try our best to answer."

Silence as everyone processes Ochaco's or rather Izuku Midoriya's story.

Bakugou especially seems more reserved, unwilling to meet anyone else's gaze.

And yet it's the one seated beside him, Eijiro Kirishima, that speaks up first. "Yeah, okay, that was a lot. And yeah I have like a million and one questions."

The Plumbers from Magister Nezu to even the droids hold their breath, their bodies going tense as they await the inevitable backlash and truthful accusations.

"So, like…what happens to Midoriya's clothes when he transforms?!"

The tension snaps and the Plumbers are left staring in utter disbelief. "Nani?!"

"I mean some of his aliens wear clothes and others don't!" Kirishima goes on like it's the most bizarre thing to think about. "When he goes alien his clothes either change or disappear! But when he goes back to being human his clothes are back! And sometimes they're banged up too! Even when his alien didn't have any on! What's up with that?! I mean do they transform with him or something?!"

Okay now the Plumber's souls have just left their mouths while waving tiny white flags.

This then prompts Momo Yaoyorozu to speak up. "I too have questions. If aliens have been living in Japan all this time then can we attribute modern technology to them? Or perhaps modern medicines?"

Recovery Girl jumps at the mention of medicine and the thought of how advanced it might be, "And if that's the case! Why have I been working so dang hard?!"

"Pray tell!" Tenya Iida shouts a little too loudly as his arms chop the air in an attempt to grab everyone's attention. "I too have many curiosities! For example, what exactly is the political landscape of this across intergalactic territories and such? It's important we understand the law even those not of Earth's."

"Do aliens like TV?" Present Mic offhandedly asks. "I feel like they do."

"Are you sure he's Quirkless?" Shota Aizawa asks a little too pointedly. "Afterall he seems to attract trouble to an unrealistic degree."

Shoto Todoroki lets out a rare gasp as the conspiracy driven part of his brain runs at overdrive. "A Trouble Magnet Quirk?"

Ectoplasm frowns while cupping his chin in thought. "How exactly have you been able to keep the existence of aliens a secret for so long? Do you have any means of wiping people's memories? What is the protocol here?"

"Tell me, which planet has the most gorgeous races and luxurious beaches?" Midnight ponders with a flourish and a show. "And on an unrelated note, I'd like to use some of my Vacation Time."

Meanwhile geysers of tears are threatening to flood the entire base from the back of the conference room. "My boy! I'm so worried yet proud of him for being so brave! My boy!"

"Such emotions~." Eirene singsongs. "From fear to courage to hope it's all a blinding array of color, is it not~?"

"What exactly do the Plumbers do?" The ever-professional Tsukauchi asks. "You said you're a police force so then what's the chain of command here?"

Meanwhile, a few things of interest have caught Power Loader's eye. "Can I borrow this robot for an afternoon? I'm curious about its programming and processing power."

^Wa-Wa!^ Chopper hurriedly slaps the hero's hand away.

"What's with crop circles?" Snipe asks curiously while trying to appear serious and professional. "Is that really the best way for aliens to communicate?"

"Does anyone want any Mata-fruit? They're about to go bad and I need to sell 'em. What about you Mrs. Bakugou?"

"Mr. Baumann…did that fruit just wink at me?!" Mitsuki screams, pulling away from the blinking pink fruit.

Ignoring them, Cementoss tries to move the conversation along. "If aliens are coming here then why don't we ever see U.F.O.s and such?"

"Is U.A. curriculum really appropriate for this?" Vlad King ponders while looking over a spare syllabus he just so happened to have in his pocket. "Shouldn't your cadets be taking some kind of cultural awareness and sensitive courses? Or even several or rather a hundred different language classes?!"

"Can I fly the RazorCrest?!" Mina gleefully asks, trying to sneak in her own request amongst the sea of questions and noise. Which only continues to grow louder and louder as everyone desperately tries to speak over each other.

Although this leaves most of the Plumbers nervous, Magister Nezu takes it in stride with a cheery and appreciative smile. "It appears we have much more explaining to do. Alrighty then! Let's take it from the top once again!"

"Ahhhh…" Hisashi Midoriya, Thirteen, Ochaco, and even One-One all let out a disgruntled moan. Even though they half-expected an outcome like this they didn't think it would go off the rails like this.

Principal Nezu "We have plenty of time to answer all your questions!" Magister Nezu assures with a wave as he stands firmly atop the head of the table. "After all, we are still waiting for our dear visitors to arrive. Hahahahaha!"

Ch.81 Induction

The hexagonal hallway is long and pristinely clean and usually void of much life or commotion. Except for today as many visitors are filing through as they make their way to the base's hangar.

"I still have so many questions." Momo airs with a hint of wonder as she takes even the simplicity of the hallway's alien-architecture. "If Midoriya can really transform into different species with different evolutionary lines. Then is it really okay for him to eat human food? I mean what happens to anything he consumes? What if a certain tea or something as trivial as chocolate proves to be fateful for one of his aliens? Would he perish because it's already in his digestive system or does the Omnitrix make him immune to such afflictions?"

"I don't know!" Ochaco has lost count of how many times she's had to answer with that same line in the last few hours. Although she left most of the answering to Principal Nezu, Thirteen, Cinder, and even One-One, Ochaco still tried her best to clarify what she could. Unfortunately, it seemed like with every answer more and more questions popped up. The only saving grace was when One-One announced the arrival of a ship.

At the very least her friends are all caught up on everything now.

"What about the names he gives them?" asks Shoto. "Are those their alien names then?"

The brunette sighs in exasperation. "No. Those are just names he gives them."

"Ah, well, maybe he should have just stuck with their real names then."

Ochaco sweat drops and laughs thinking that maybe they're not as caught up as she had previously assumed.

No one says or asks anything else, not until they all gather around inside Plumber base's main hangar. It's wide and huge, able to store a great many supplies, ships, and vehicles and yet the only vehicles here of note are Hisashi Midoriya's RazorCrest and…RV? Weird.

As they stand there and wait for the new arrivals, Ochaco's nerves begin to stir. She had just pulled her friends into this. Unwilling in fact. What if…what if they aren't… "Listen guys I'm really happy your here…but I understand if…this is all too much."

They remain silent, unable to meet her gaze since she has her back to them. And yet she can practically feel Iida's steadfast gaze piercing the back of her skull.

"I admit it's…a lot." Iida quietly admits while observing the groups of aliens hovering nearby throughout the hanger. Most of them are being reassured by Eirene Ashido to be patient and calm. "But then again you are providing a public service for these people. When you think about it you aren't doing anything nefarious or drastically different from hero work. If anything, I must commend you for your actions!"

That makes Ochaco smile although her worries refuse to go anywhere.

To which Iida is quick to reestablish. "However, I must admit that I am still hurt that we were left in the dark for so long!"

Momo can't help but agree. "Would…would it be alright to tell the rest of our class?"

Kirishima agrees. "Yeah, shouldn't they know?"

Thankfully Ochaco is spared from answering by the most hostile member of their group.

"You idiots." Bakugou scolds from the back. "If that was the mentality then all of Japan would fucking know by now too. Besides," He pauses as if to pick his next words carefully and with a bit more tact but then again that's never been his way… "they brought us here because they're desperate."

A heavy curtain falls across everyone from the students to the pros as the truth behind Bakugou's words sink in.

And yet Magister Nezu sees this as an opportunity. And opportunity to clarify just what kind of position they are in. "You are correct, Mr. Bakugou. We are desperate. And you all have my sincerest gratitude for being so accommodating for us. Despite what we have forced upon you today." With a somber smile the little chimera gazes up towards the ceiling as if waiting for something. "But do not think that we are simply relying on you alone. We have reached our hands out to others for help as well."

Everyone waits for him to clarify. But an explanation never comes as there's suddenly an echo of machinery and gears shifting out of place from high above their heads.

Everyone's head snaps up and just in time to watch as the hanger ceiling begins to open wide. Sunlight and fresh air pour in from above and wash over them all. Causing the heroes and kids to shield their faces. Although the aliens and Plumbers look on unaffected, too used to similar scenes such as this. But from above a spaceship, a real spaceship, with a sleek and narrow design begins its slow descent into the hanger. The ship is bigger than a semi-truck and its cargo with teal armor that's framed by smooth green markings. All in all this sleek design for a spacecraft is a real sight to behold.

"Haha! Now that's some next level shit! Yeah!" cheers Present Mic.

Snipe blows out a long-impressed whistle while tilting back his hat for a better look. "That's one hell of a ride."

Meanwhile, Kirishima's eyes are sparkling in excitement. "So, Alienly! So Alienly!"

"That's not gonna catch on!" Mina chides yet she too is in awe of such a cool-looking U.F.O.

Everyone is amazed by it, even Eraserhead has lost his breath just from the sheer sight of it.

Nezu spins around, the ship to his back and his charges to his front as he addresses them. "My students. My teachers. My friends. I wish for you all to meet those that I call dear allies and friends!"

The awe-inspiring ship's engines roar like a pair of mighty lions, kicking up a whirlwind that wipes across their faces as the U.F.O. slowly descends and lands with a soft and elegant grace.

"Although they are not many, each of them have answered my call without hesitation. But do not think they are simple volunteers. No! These fine ladies and gentlemen are exactly the people we need to succeed. Each one of them is in a class all of their own. They are the best of the best!"

The bay doors to the ship release gusts of air and pressure that hiss.

"They are the elites of their fields!"

The ramp slowly begins to fold down, and an inspiring light of hope pours out.

"The bravest of souls!"

Every breath is being held, not a soul dares to breathe as they wait for this hero's great reveal.

"Geniuses of their craft!"

The rap touches down and through the blinding light of hope they see a figure. A massive, inspiring figure that could even rival that of All Might's own prestige!

"Please welcome our HEROES!"

The figure makes a move to step forward, and through the light…. Only to immediately collapse in on itself with clanks and tinks of metal before falling all apart causing gears, wires, and mechanical joins to go scattering across the floor.

Leaving the heroes and students staring on with stunned questioning. They all watch, eyes popped, and jaws open as a little gear bounces off the ramp and rolls away before circling around Ochaco's feet where it slowly tumbles to a stop.

"HA!" Bakugou can't help but bellow.

He chuckles and snorts as everyone else stares in utter shock and horror. Each unsure if this was intentional or not. Their minds only snap back into place once some unfamiliar voices begin arguing away from atop the ramp.

"I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! I told you those hyper coil-links were on backwards! Ugh! This is going to set us back months!"

"You never said that."

"I specifically remember that I did."

"No, you didn't. If you had, I would have remembered."

"But you didn't remember!"

"No, you just never said it."

"What?! Yes I did!"

"No, you didn't."

"Yes, I did!"

"No, you didn't!"

"Yes. I. DID!"

It takes a minute of searching and scanning the entrance of the ship until they all finally realize that the sets of voices are not in fact disembodied but that they are coming from below their own knees.

Shoto stares down and raises an eyebrow so far up that it vanishes under his red hair. "This is….your elite squad?"

Arguing at their feet is a pair that look offlay like Deku's Grey Matter form. Except one is stubbier than his lanky and tall (for his species) friend. The shorter of the two is wearing the standard Plumber armor, mini edition. While his friend looks like an alien version of a grease monkey, he even has a little trucker hat on, alien-edition.

It honestly looks like Hisashi's jaw is gonna fall off the moment he realizes who these two are. "BLUKIC!? AND DRIBA!?"

The two Galvans, Blukic and Driba, instantly spin around in alert as if now just noticing their much taller and bigger audience.

The tallest of the two, Blukic, grins happily at the sight of Hisashi. "Look Driba! I found the missing boy, Midorky!"

"That's not him, Blukic!" Driba, the shorter one, chastises. "That's just Plumber Agent Cinder!"

It takes Blukic a second to realize. "Oh, but he looks so much like him!"

Hisashi can already feel a headache coming on. "God damn, tech support… Hey, guys. It sure has been a while. And just so you know the name's Midoriya and secondly the reason we look alike is because he's my child."

Both their eyes go wide as if they're now just realizing this. "Ooooooh."

They both pause, sharing a look before happily smiling as Driba congratulates the Plumber. "Well, congrats on the new tadpole!"

"Yeah!" Blukic happily cheers. "So, is it a boy or girl?"

"He's a boy! And he's not a baby!" Hisashi is already growing infuriated, having to slap his own face to prevent himself from losing it. "Ugh…"

Deadpanned, Hisashi turns to his higherup. "Out of everyone you could have called, you called THEM?!"

Magister Nezu innocently chuckles. "Hehehe. Yes! Isn't it delightful?! Hahahaha!"

It's not for Hisashi but it is for the Galvans as Blukic is quick to answer. "It is!"

"We so missed Earth!" says Driba.

"We sure did! Aw, it's good to be back."

Hisashi's gonna lose it. "Look guys it's…great to have you back. But…I thought you were transferred to the Methanos system." Which is conventionally, and strategically, thousands of lightyears away.

Driba frowns in confusion. "What? Oh, no, we were transferred shortly after arriving! They sent us to the planet of Alfa 177 instead."

Blukic frowns in annoyance at that. "No. They transferred us to the Bith system instead."

"No. The Bith system was after we were stationed on one of Almerac's moons."

"But what about the planet of Bolovax Vik?"

"That was right before we were stationed on Zeenu."

"Was it?"

"Pretty sure."

As the two go on and on, Thirteen too begins to feel the onset of a headache. "I'm somehow both annoyed and nostalgic all at once."

Momo frowns, observing the two tiny aliens curiously. "I thought Grey Matters were supposed to be…intelligent."

The two Galvans give her a quizzical look.

"Um, yes, we are grey." Driba assures. "But we are also highly intelligent geniuses."

"Yeah!" Blukic nods. "And we're smart!"

"HA!" Bakugou can help but bellow out. "We are so screwed!"

From the depths of the ship an elderly voice with a county-tang calls out as two sets of footsteps echo through the chamber. "Don't you go counting us out of this game yet, sonny boy. Who knows? We may just surprise you."

And out from the ship steps forth the Ripjaws-relation that is Magister Patelliday and behind him is the ever indifferent and cold Xylene.

"Hey!" Kirishima lights up at the sight of the old fish. "You're like Midoriya too! Ripjaws! What's up with that?!"

Iida is quick to admonish him, taking his statement as rude. "Kirishima! Please pay attention! He is clearly of the same race as Midoriya's Ripjaws form!"

Patelliday gives the boys a nod. "That's right. And my, you whippersnappers sure are a lively bunch."

Momo gasps. "Mr. Patelliday, sir! You were an alien the whole time."

"That I was, but it's nice to see that your friends finally clued you in."

Momo smiles at that. "Yes, it is… WAIT!" With a start she spins around to address said female friends. "Were we fighting alien squids that whole time?! When we were trapped underwater?!"

Ochaco and Mina quickly turn away, feigning innocence as they each whistle a harmless little tune.

Meanwhile, Present Mic slides in from the side, seeming lost. "Are we missing something here?"

Both Aizawa and Shoto give simultaneous nods of agreement.

At the same time, Xylene glides forward and presents herself to the Plumbers first and foremost. "It is nice to see you Red Sp- I mean Plumbers, again." She bows, intending to give them respect.

However, Hisashi and Thirteen are not buying it. "Don't try to cover up what you were about to say."

"No one's buying it." Thirteen adds with a deadpanned glare.

Mr. Baumann makes himself known, greeting the lady with a welcoming smile. "Xylene, why, you don't look a day over 75."

Magister Nezu is also there to give her a hello. "Welcome my dear. It's so wonderful to have you."

"Greetings to you all as well. It's a pleasure to see you all once again." She leans to the side so that she may have a better look at a certain individual. "Especially you my Flying Temptation."

Gran Torino has his eyes closed as if bracing himself for what's to come before addressing her like an old acquaintance. "Hello, there Xylene. It's been a minute."

She smirks at that, strutting forward so she can speak to him directly. "Is that how you humans say hello?"

He smirks back. "It is but it's not how I say hello?"

"Then show me, how." Without warning she grabs him by the collar and hoists him up so their lips can meet.

The reactions are instantaneous, mostly gagging or general shock. While Mina and Midnight clutch hands as they giddily giggle and gush.

Even Tsukauchi is at a loss for words. 'I'm not sure what will blow Toshinori's mind more? Aliens or this?'

Bakugou, however, seems to be the only one not bothered by the PDA, although he just probably doesn't care. "Oy! Who is this, Lizard Lady?"

Still reeling from the scene, Ochaco tries her best to give a straight answer. "Her name is Xylene. She's partly the reason why the Omnitrix landed on Earth."

That immediately snaps everyone out of their funk as her friends, teachers, Inko, and the Tsukauchi all let out cries of astonishment. "WHAT!?"

Xylene finally pulls away from the dazed and blushing Gran Torino in order to properly address the wondering crowd. "Yes, my ship was shot down by Vilgax. Forcing me to jettison the Omnitrix to Earth. Although it was never my intention to have such a weapon to end up in the hands of a mere human hatchling."

Scanning the crowd Xylene soon spots a woman with hair that's a familiar shade of green and eyes brimming with an unnatural amount of tears already dripping out. All while Bakugou's own mother comforts the poor shaken woman.

"Are you the boy's mother?" Xylene ponders as she slowly approaches, as to not startle the poor thing.

Inko jumps, becoming very nervous at the prospect of an alien addressing her, but it's more so out of fear that she'll say something unintentionally rude or offensive to someone with a culture and customs she knows literally nothing about, "Y-yes, I am."

"Hm, I cannot fathom what you are going through." Xylene explains with what Inko assumes is genuine sympathy at least until Xylene adds in this next part. "Mainly because in my species we abound our young the moment they hatch from their eggs."

"Oh, I see…"

"But know this although I never intended for the Omnitrix to fall in your hatchling's hands. I must say that you should be very proud of your offspring."

Inko is taken back, but in a good way, it is rare for her to hear such praise about her wonderful baby boy over the years, especially from strangers; she's both shocked and touched.

"He's demonstrated great ingenuity and skill far past then some of the greatest warriors I've had the pleasure of disemboweling. Clearly the product of superior genes and good breeding."

"Um, t-thank you…?" That certainly is…something to think about. And although it was odd, Inko understands the woman's intentions. And in all honesty it means more to her than Xylene or anyone probably realizes. "I worry about him, I do, especially now, knowing what I know…but I also couldn't be happier for him." A soft smile shyly peeks as Inko takes in the kids, the teachers, and heroes that have all assembled together without hesitation, all for her son's sake. "I'm happy because I just seeing how many people are here to save my boy. I couldn't be happier that he has so many wonderful and amazing people in his life." The heart warmest smile beams across the sweet woman's face as her heart pours out admiration and love like geysers of tears.

The smile, her words, her heart so sweet it drowns everyone in pure and utter sugar causing their hearts to race with warmth. "SHE'S SO PURE!" Everyone particularly Present Mic, Kirishima, Iida, and Mina cry out forcing Aizawa to cover his ears.

"Don't you worry Momidoriya! We'll have your precious baby boy back before you can even say YEAAAAAH!"

"Yeah, that's right! Just leave it to us!"

"There's no need to worry, ma'am! We will not fail you! That's a Class 1-A guarantee!"

"That problem-er, your boy is tougher than people give him credit for. He's gonna be fine. And he'll be back and ready for class so that he can keep making you proud."

"Please, don't cry, Momidoriya! You're too sweet for that!"

"Oh, my!" Inko blushes as light tears prick at her eyes before an even warmer smile graces them all. "Aren't you all just the sweetest dears?!"

Clutching their hearts, they all collapse to the floor, unable to take on such a truck load of sugar.

Only for Bakugou to bellow out another one at their expense. "HA!"

Even Eirene is amused. "Hmhmhmhm~. Oh my~. It's always wonderful to witness what such pure emotions can bring to others~."

As those sugar crashed drunks flop on the floor like fish-out-of-water, a literal fish-out-of-water takes the time to officially greet his old colleagues and friends. "Magister. Gran Torino. Baumann. It sure has been a hop, a skip and a beat. How you old hounds doing?"

Principal Nezu "Magister Patelliday! It's so lovely to have you! I hope you have been doing well. I must admit though these last few days have certainly taken a number off my years.."

Gran Torino gives him a shrug in greeting. "Eh, been better. Though my arthritis is acting up."

Mr. Baumann can relate to that. "Last week I dropped a quarter and when I went to get back up I couldn't get back up! Took hours before someone came by to help."

Thirteen, Mina, Kirishima, Bakugou, and Tsukauchi all watch the interaction take place and they all have the same thoughts about it. 'They're all such old farts…'

Hisashi approaches the speckled Ripjaws and gives him a proper bow of respect. "Magister Patelliday, it's an honor. Thank you so much for coming."

He receives a warm, but fang filled, smile in return. "Of course, I'd never refuse a call for help from friends. You got yourself a good kid from what I hear, Cinder. Ain't no way we're gonna let Vilgax hook and gut this fish." He means for that analogy to be reassuring but it might not come off as assuring as he might have liked.

Even Thirteen feels unsettled by it. "Can we try not to use such grim metaphors today, please."

^Wa-Bz-Bp!^ Chopper offer which only upsets Thirteen even more.

"No! You can't say that stuff either!"

Shoto observes the new arrivals with great interest but also wariness. And if he's being honest as of now…he's not really impressed by these quote-on-quote aliens. "Is this really all of your reinforcements?" He asks a little too bluntly but thankfully he seems to catch his mistake. "Oh, I mean no offense."

"Hang on there, Icy-Hot!" Bakugou barks out. "He's right, all we got is an old flounder, a lizard, and two idiot frogs! I thought we were getting the best of the best?!"

"Katsuki!" His mother scolds. "Don't be rude!"

Even Kirishima's embarrassed for him. "Yeah, they're here to help after all."

Meanwhile, Blukic and Driba share looks of confusion.

"Idiot frogs?"

"I think he's referring to them." Blukic jabs a finger over towards Present Mic and Aizawa.

Upon inspecting their odd attire, Driba has to agree. "Hm, I see."

Unfortunately for them, their little comments don't go unnoticed. "Why do I get the feeling your transfer was on purpose?" Aizawa growls.

"These little grey dudes sure know how to push buttons." scowls Present Mic.

"I mean I kinda get it." agrees Mina, not the idiot part, but the part where Bakugou is right about this being all of their help. "Like I thought there would be more too."

"Well what were you expecting?" Midnight asks curiously.

"I mean I guess I was expecting some, you know, handsome hunk with a flashy smile and awesome powers! You know!"

"Oh! I do know!" Midnight gushes and the two share a moment to bask in their overly wild imaginations.

"Oh, my~!" Eirene gasps, her antennas are waving more erratically causing her usually snow-white face to blush so much that she could actually be mistaken for her own daughter,

But as if sensing the opportunity to make an impactful entrance, one final voice, this one male and very familiar to all, calls out from within the ship with a cool and suave grace. "Hehehe. Oh, so then, were you two waiting for someone like me?"

Expecting another alien to emerge everyone is in for another rollercoaster of a shock! But not because of some weird and strange alien stepping out but because it's not an alien that appears! It's a human! A human teen! He's tall for his age and very handsome even with that burn scar over the left of his face. His hair, slick and shiny, with one half white like snow and the other red like roses. His eyes of silver and turquoise gleam with affection and charm.

"I have arrived." Shines the Handsome Todoroki. "My lovely butterflies?"

"EEEEEEEEEeeeek~!" All the single women in the hangar let out earsplitting squeals of delight and awe. None are immune to his handsome face's charms, not Midnight, Momo, nor Ochaco!

Meanwhile the men are all left speechless and Shoto is left frozen looking like he's just had some kind of twisted close encounter.

But at least one person finds this all amusing. "HA-OW!"

"Stop that!" Mitsuki colds her hand red from hitting her son's skull so hard.

The sound of that slap was enough to snap everyone out of their daze, but it soon results in a complete and total uproar. "ANOTHER TODOROKI!?"

"No." Tsukauchi frowns, picking up on the fact that something, something is very off with this version of Shoto. "Something's not right here."

Hisashi's impressed but then again he is a detective. "You noticed then."

"Why hello there, handsome." The Handsome Todoroki practically struts up to his stunned look alike and takes his hand and cups it under Shoto's chin as if to inspect him for imperfections. "Might I say that it is a delight to see such a familiar face during these trying times."

"Y-yeah…" Shoto's not really sure how to respond nor react, he's not exactly a social butterfly but even an extrovert would have trouble navigating this. All we can do is stare back at this "imposter" and watch them. He watches how they breathe. How they speak with his voice. How they smell a bit like wet clay. How that whenever they blink their eyes turn completely fuchsia every now and again.

That last observation takes Shoto a second before all the pieces click together nicely. "I guess it is nice to see a familiar face." He stops to remember her name. "I'm sorry but Ms. Mann was it?"

The Handsome Todoroki's smile stretches far beyond what bones and skin should allow it. "So, you do remember me! Eheheh! *Snort!* Eheheh!" His voice changes becoming higher pitched yet softer, but the most horrific part is that his face begins to melt! Like actually melting into globs of brown and purple mud!

"Drop the Miss part! It's just Mann, Lucy Mann!" With a spin and a fashionable flourish, the mud that once made-up Handsome Todoroki reforms itself into the image of a teen girl. One with porcelain skin, gold-blonde hair, and fuchsia-colored eyes. And an attire that's made up of a black polo-dress with a red collar and a red star on the chest. With white knee-high socks with black and red converse.

At this point the rest of the humans aren't sure if they should even act surprised anymore almost as if this kinda thing is already becoming normal to them. Even so they would still like to know who this sudden shapeshifter is.

"Lucy Mann." Shoto repeats as if letting the name cement itself into his mind. "So, that story about you being Midoriya's cousin then?"

"It wasn't a total lie!" Hisashi interrupts while sheepishly interesting himself into the conversation. "I do in fact know her extended family very well."

Lucy smiles and nods. "Yeah, he even went to my cousin's wedding. Sheesh, that sure was a dramatic one too. Things sure got real muddy."

Inko frowns, thinking back to about five to six years ago. "Oh, I think I remember that wedding." She vaguely remembers it. She remembers that they didn't take Izuku since he was sick, so Mr. Baumann watched him for them. But she does remember the in-laws from both the groom and bride's sides absolutely hating each other. And then to top it off a villain, who was the bride's ex-boyfriend, attacked the wedding too. Thankfully her own husband, Hisashi, was able to cool things off with his Fire Breath. She can somewhat remember the flower girl going down the aisle with similar gold-blond hair and freckles.

Too bad not everyone has such a history with Lucy.

"Hang on, I'm confused. Who are you?" asks Mina.

"The name's Lucy Mann! But you can call me Lucy! And I'm a Lenopan! And just to keep things simple that means I can transform to look like anything and anyone I like!"

Shaking off the initial astonishment, Iida politely but also very aggressively makes his introduction known. "It's a delight to meet you my name is-"

"Tenya Iida, right?!" Lucy asks while her body shifts to look exactly like Iida, albeit with blond hair, starling him in the process. "I know exactly who you all are! Eheheh! *Snort!* Eheheh!"

"You do?!" Iida's at a loss for words, and not just because he's suddenly talking to a blonde version of himself, but because of the fact that she really knows who they are.

"Yeah!" The Fake-Iida smiles before pointing over at the red-haired friend of manliness. "You're Kirishima!" Her form shifts into that of Kirishima but instead of red his hair is silver like Tetsutestu's.

"Yaoyorozu!" Then she becomes Momo but instead of raven black her hair is snow white.

"Ashido!" This time she's Mina but instead of pink she's a baby blue in color.

"Uraraka!" Huh, Ochaco kinda looks good as a redhead.

"And-" She turns back into her regular Lucy form and sticks her tongue out like a cat as she points a pair of teasing fingers at Bakugou. "You're Sparky Sparky Boom Man!"

"DON'T CALL ME THAT!" Bakugou roars!

But she just smiles and laughs it off. "And of course I've already met Todoroki over here."

Okay, now Ochaco is really curious. "How did you two meet exactly? And how do you know Deku?"

"Midoriya, Todoroki, and your raven friend, um, Tokoyami, really helped me out in a pinch while I was in Tokyo."

"That we did." Shoto confirms. "Although we had no idea you were an alien at the time."

"Well, duh! But anyway, they really saved my ass. Not to mention your world's too."

"Hm." Shoto nods in agreement but he was only half listening, so it takes him a few seconds to process what she was implying. "Wait, what?"

"Oh, yeah! You remember Ragnarok? Well, he was gonna absorb your sun."

Suddenly the whole hanger feels like it's going through a second ice age with how frozen stiff everyone becomes.

Shoto's almost too nervous to ask. "W-what do you mean…absorb?"

"You know. He was gonna steal it! Suck it away. Steal its power and cast your entire solar system in darkness until all life as you know it collapses into darkness… Did they not tell you about that yet?"

Almost immediately everyone's heads snap and throw glares back at their unphased and still smiling Principal.

"Do not fret, apocalyptic scenarios and alien invasions are a constant in this line of work. Hahahahaha!"

"THIS IS NO LAUGHING MATTER!" They all shout.

And to his credit, Magister Nezu does compose himself soon after. "You are correct. I should be taking this more seriously after all our dear guests have traveled quite the ways to assist us. It's only right that we treat them with the utmost respect. Treat them as you would one of your own!" He pauses, his expression thoughtful as he turns to address Xylene. "Although I must admit I too had hoped that more would have answered my call."

Xylene expression falls, becoming akin to shame. "I'm sorry, Magister. After departing Earth last time, I followed Cinder's instructions and tried to contact the rogue known as Tetrax Shard. However, all of my calls have gone unanswered."

"Tetrax Shard?" Shoto perks up at that name, recognizing it almost instantly. Only for his expression to turn tired and deadpanned. "You mean even aliens invaded the U.S.J.?" He sighs in exasperation. "Did we do anything this year that didn't involve an alien?"

"Hey!" Thirteen takes offense at that. "Don't be mean about it! Tetrax ended up helping us out a lot that day! He wasn't there to hurt us!"

Recovery Girl speaks up, not sure of who or what they're talking about. "Who is this Mr. Shard?"

Expecting an answer from either Nezu or Thirteen, everyone is a bit startled at first that it's actually Ochaco who gives them an explanation. "He's an alien bounty hunter." She starts, hesitantly, making sure that they are all paying attention. "He broke into the U.S.J. coincidentally at the same time the League of Villains did. At the time he was hired by Vilgax to steal the Omnitrix but in actuality he was trying to keep it safe." Although he did attack both her and Todoroki but then again they did attack him first. But after sorting all that out the trio headed off to help Deku fight off the Nomu. "After seeing that Deku could take care of himself, Textrx offered to lead Vilgax's army on a wild goose chase through space by using a fake Omnitrix signal or something." But that was months ago and they had never heard back from him since. And if Xylene couldn't reach him then…what does that mean?

After hearing her story, Momo turns to Mina for more clarification. "You knew of this as well?"

"No!" Mina shakes her head wildly. "I, literally, just found out about this. But then again I was finally put into the fold about a month ago." She throws a look at her own mother, who happily and gleefully waves back at her despite sensing the annoyance radiation of her own offspring.

Ochaco is not the only one with growing worries, Thirteen too has their concerns. "He took it upon himself to be bait, but if hasn't answered then…" They stop and share a concerned and yet understanding look with Magister Nezu who keeps his own agreeing concern silent.

Even though he had never met the alien, Gran Torino has heard of this bounty hunter mainly from Nezu. "Petrosapiens are a hardy bunch. Even if they're near extinct they don't just go down without putting up one hell of a fight. Still though if he was willing to lead on Vilgax then he must have considered the risks…"

A terrible churning sinks into her stomach and Ochaco turns a bit sullen and worried. 'Tetrax is missing…and so are Deku and All Might.' That churring worsens, mixing with the bitterness of fear. 'Have I even considered the consequences?' Sure, Principal Nezu asked her before but did she? Sure she considered what if her friends reacted badly to the truth but… Is she ready to deal with the fact that her and her friends are about to face off against such inhuman monsters? What if even one of them…doesn't make it back?

That churning turns cold.

Meanwhile, off to the side, Hisashi scotches over to Patelliday for a quick and private conversation. "Hey, Magister Patelliday."

"Yes. What is it?" Patelliday responds.

"Did you stop off at the Academy like I asked? I thought there'd be at least one more with you. I couldn't imagine that he said no when he heard the request was from me."

"Oh, we did go to the Academy. But I'm afraid they were right in the middle of their exams so I was unable to reach anybody, not even the instructors. Sorry, but my fins were tied."

"Oh. No, it's fine…" If it's fine then why does Hisashi seem so disappointed?

"So, Lucy Mann and Textra Shard are aliens." Shoto eyes the Plumbers of their group with suspicion and a bit of exacerbation. "Is there anybody else that we know that are actually aliens in disguise?"

"Hmmm." Mina thinks on it for a second. "No. I don't think so."

"Well actually," Hisashi sheepishly slides in, making sure to keep a distance just in case this gets ugly. "She's not an alien. But Melissa Shield is a Plumber Cadet too!"

At this point the teens just collapse, face faulting to the floor out of the sheer exhaustion this whole situation has been.

"Yes!" Patelliday reaches for his back pockets in order to fish out a pair of new Support Items. "But she said she wouldn't be too much help as it is. But she did give me some gifts for Ms. Uraraka and Mr. Midoriya. Hm? Say where is the young lady?"

But only Patelliday and Ochaco's friends seem to notice her missing presence too as the teachers and other Plumbers are too busy chatting away and answering any more questions that are still burning them.

However, only Bakugou is able to catch a glimpse of a bob of hair slinking away back into the hallway.

---

She just…needs a minute to be alone. Which is why after wandering away Ochaco finds herself back at the conference room, now empty and feeling so much lonelier now that everyone's gone and left for the hangar. But who can blame her? After hearing about Tetrax…she's grown nervous, and her heart is full of dread for this mission. But then again, she's almost positive everyone's feeling the same way, deep down… But then again she's not really sure how any of them feel about all this. Will they regret following her…? What are their feelings about all this? She has no way of knowing.

In her hands, she clutches a letter, a letter containing the feelings and thanks of a little boy who never got the chance to tell his hero how sorry and grateful he was. And now it's on her to make sure those feelings are delivered. This may be a bigger responsibility then she first imagined…

"There's an entire secret base right underneath U.A. It's full of E.T.s, alien tech and a ton of junk I can't even explain. And yet the weirdest thing I've seen today is you sulking like a broody emo!" Bakugou leans against the doorway looking like he just walked into some shitty scene, and yet despite his glare and scowl his expression is…softer than usual.

"I'm not brooding." She pouts. "I'm just…thinking." The letter tighter crunches together underneath her fingers from how hard she's holding it.

"A dangerous pastime."

She chuckles a bit at his half-assed attempt at a joke. "Sorry for just taking off, after seeing everybody there it just got to me… I-I needed a minute."

"Yeah, I get it. Those extras are making my ears bleed. Going on and on asking your alien-buddies the dumbest of questions: Did aliens make the fucking pyramids? Is the moon really made out of cheese? And what's with aliens' fucking fascination with probing?! SERIOUSLY WHAT'S UP WITH THAT!?"

For some reason Ochaco has the sneaking suspicion that's his own personal gripe. "I think…that's just a false rumor."

"Anyway." His pupils trail down towards the scrap of paper between Ochaco's fingers. "What is that? Some kind of alien device that looks like paper?"

"Yeah, it's a communication device. It's really complicated though. You have to write in a whole other language and then trust someone else to deliver the message for you."

"Hm. Sounds complicated."

"Sounds meaningful."

A sullen silence falls between them with Bakugou blocking the doorway as Ochaco leans hunched over in her seat. They can sense every second of silence by making feel dragged on as the silence grows heavier and heavier.

"Uraraka."

She slowly meets his softened amber gaze.

"What are we-...getting ourselves into?" He wonders, looking sullen and for the first time, in Ochaco's memory, nervous. "Can we…really do this?"

"Bakugou…this doesn't sound like you."

"Yeah, well today's a weird fucking day. Been having to wrap my head around all this, shit. And come to terms with that fact that we're gonna be going up against a space overlord or some bullshit."

She pauses, her mind aching to have answers for her earlier concerns. "You scared?"

"HA! I'm fucking thrilled."

She gasps. "You are?!"

"Heh, think about it, Cheeks." A determined grin that should only belong to a psycho stretches across his face. "I just found out that aliens are real, and they got some crazy powers. And it was revealed that the guy I knew since childhood is also an alien. Or at least he is sometimes. Of course, I'm excited. Because that means I've not just kicked human ass but alien ass too!" Sparks pop from his palms as if his own blood was itching for a fight. "And my blood is pumping to deliver a fucking Supernova of an Explosions right up Vilgax's tentacled ass!"

Ochaco should be concerned but to be honest this is probably his most honest answer. "Well, I'm glad you're still the same. After everything…" Her head droops and her eyes are casted over by the shadows of her hair.

The sight is pitiful, and the mad bomber doesn't like it one bit. "Don't tell me you're blaming yourself for what happened?"

Startled, her head snaps up. "What?"

"Listen here, moron!" He roars and jabs a finger at her face. "The only reason Deku and I got snatched was because we were weak! It was our own goddamn fault! You couldn't have done anything different so stop thinking about the what ifs! Because it doesn't fucking matter!" That said they could've taken care of themselves if the villains were such cowards to attack them while they were training. "We lost. We won. And we lost again. So what?! That's life! WE GROW STRONGER FROM THIS JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE!"

A bell of truth rings through her ears and Ochaco recalls her own father's words: '"The reason these things happen is so we can try again. Do better. To lift ourselves up. These are the moments we live for, that we struggle towards. We work hard and never give up because if we do then we went through all that for nothing. Life is about overcoming obstacles, of enduring the bad times, so that we can cherish the good ones."'

"If you want to win, then you better grab it yourself!" Bakugou declares with a burning passion. "So, come on!" He offers his hand to her, willing to be at her side as they dive headfirst into the unknown. "Let's go abduct ourselves a couple of nerds! And then you can deliver that shitty alien message."

She smiles, genuinely smiles as she takes his hand. "You really are something, Bakugou."

"You fucking know it." He grins, pulling her to her feet before leading her back through the door.

She happily follows along, letting him get far ahead.

But he stops as soon as the doorway slides open. "Get a move on! We're all waiting on ya!"

And there getting her on the other side, are her dear and wonderful classmates.

"Hey! Why'd you run off like that?!" Mina whines.

And Kirishima is right there along with her. "Yeah! We were worried ya know!"

"It's improper to wander." Says Iida, pushing up his glasses. "We have to prepare ourselves, do we not? We need to stay focused and prepare ourselves for what's to come!"

Momo sincerely agrees. "I know this is nerve racking but I'm more afraid of what happens if we do nothing at all. I'm ready!"

With his arms folded Shoto lets his opinion be known too. "If you didn't think that we couldn't handle it you wouldn't have brought us here. We know what we're signing up for. As long as you and the others are there to lead us."

"You guys…" Her father's words echo in her mind once again: '"Your gravity can pull others to you. You pulled your friends together in order to do what you all thought was right. You all pulled together to defend and save one another. Even now your friends come to your side to help. Your gravity calls to them. Not only does it pull them towards you, but you can use it to lift them up. You can help them defy gravity and rise above the pain and hardships. You can help them fly."'

She's almost brought to tears, but even so she wipes furiously at her face as hope rises in her chest like a warm comforting flame.

"So, this is where you all ran off too." Aizawa calls out from down the hall.

And he's not alone as all the other teachers and Plumbers are there with him as they make their way through the halls of Plumber Base.

With a smile and a skip in their step Thirteen takes the lead and waves everyone away down another hallway. "I hope you all are ready for this."

"Thirteen, please, no more surprises." begs Tsukauchi, who's not sure how much more they can take of this.

"Oh, don't worry, this is a good one." Thirteen explains before coming to a stop before a large set of doors that are locked up tighter than Fort Knox.

Excitement radiates off Thirteen as they insert their badge into the key scanner and locks on the door begin to turn and fold away.

Recognizing this door from her first ever visit to Plumber Base, Ochaco reels back as if hitting an invisible wall. "Hey, wait! You said this place was off limits."

"Yes It was." With a final turn, Thirteen steps back as the heavily armored door folds away to reveal the jackpot of armories.

It's like a gold mine of alien blasters and weaponry in here! Not only are there standard issue Plumber suits and blasters organized throughout but there's a blaster of every shape, size, model, and color line every square inch of this massive wardrobe of assault and tactical equipment. An entire section of the armory is reserved entirely for weapons made by the Covenant races like Energy Swords, Plasma Pistol and Rifles. Then there's a whole wall dedicated to the DC series like the DC-15S blaster carbines, the DC-17m Blaster Rifles, and DC-17 hand blasters. And the amazing arsenal goes on and on from there with Reverberating Carbonizer guns, Series 4 De-Atomizers, PKD Blasters, Assault Dominators, and a Magnopulser has a whole podium to itself. It's the treasure trove of weapon piles!

"Oh, hell yeah." Upon witnessing such a mass of potential destruction, a shit eating grin stretches across the mad bomber's already wicked face. "This shit is gonna have nuts in it!"

It's time to suit up.

From in the locker room, Ochaco examines the red Plumber suit she's been lent, along with her Gyro-Disc, and as she does Thirteen walks in and drops a folded black and pink uniform in front of her. "Try putting this on instead."

Ochaco, hesitantly, takes it and holds up the uniform which unfurls in her fingers allowing herself to have a good look at it.

It's her costume but with a slimmer belt and a new wrist gauntlet that's narrower than before with new sets of high-tech control panels attached to them. All in all, though, it looks exactly the same.

"Oh, wow, it's-"

"Capable of withstanding the vacuum of space." Thirteen explains much to Ochaco's sudden astonishment. "We've been meaning to give them to you for a while."

Ochaco smiles, grateful to have such a gift. But she pauses when she realizes that a key component is missing. "But how am I supposed to breathe?"

"With this." Thirteen smiles and presents the package Patelliday had meant to deliver.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

"The Omnitrix cannot fall into Vilgax's hands." Magister Nezu announces with all he's got as he strolls across the long pearl white table, with his hands behind his back. "If it does there will be no force on heaven or earth that can stop him."

Uravity walks past, dragging in a floating holographic screen behind her. "All he has to do is erase Deku's DNA from its system and slap it on his wrist. Then WHAM all our friends, the Pros, the Plumbers! Everything will be gone!"

Cinder then finishes the line by stating. "So, Vilgax cannot claim it as his own!"

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Bakugou shoves the last piece of the red Plumber into place. And he can't help but be disappointed in the lack of flare and power it has. That's when he has the bright idea of shoving his grenade gauntlets over, combining them perfectly. As he clips them into place a stack of orbs catches his eye and he finds a number of blue-colored alien spheres left unattended and right for the taking.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

On the screen, Uravity just rolled in, a general image of Vilgax's ship appears to which Magister Nezu is quick to draw attention to. "The Chimeran Hammer is one of if not the most heavily armed ship in Vilgax's entire fleet. Meaning that it is not the fastest, a weakness we are going to exploit."

Cinder points at the screen and when he does small images of Xylene's ship and the RazorCrest appear. "Xylene will clear the way to the Chimeran Hammer. Allowing my craft and the RazorCrest to enter the hull."

Red Riot raises his hands and speaks up. "Won't there be hundreds of aliens and killer robots inside?"

Bakugou tsks as if that was a joke. "I think of drones as paper-mâché."

Red Riot grins and laughs only for them both to yelp in pain as Chopper gives the back of their knees a good whack.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Mina's admiring herself in the red Plumber and how well it hugs her form. Satisfied she puts on the gloves Thirteen lent her, they're just like the ones Thirteen uses, meant to open up and allow her to shoot out acid. Apparently it's all they have since they weren't really anticipating this. But it'll work for now.

But admittedly she would love to have some more alien tech to play with.

*Knock. Knock.*

There's a knock at the door and there's Ochaco holding a familiar looking flying-device that certainly doesn't belong to her.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

"Once we are all aboard." Uravity continues. "We will be splitting into four teams! And each one will have their own objectives!"

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Momo was given a slightly alternate version of the red Plumber suit. This one's chest plate is shorter leaving her stomach area exposed with nothing but the black underlayer to cover her. This will do so she doesn't have to rip off the entire spacesuit in order to use her Quirk. And if she can't utilize her Quirk well then…

She puts on the Plumber suit and preps her shrunken Zircon Blade and grinds it against the arm brace as if to test the armor's durability.

She'll always have her sword.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Cinder picks up from there and runs through the plan. "This team will secure our landing zone. As they do this will create the perfect distraction for Lucy to slip away to the ship's command center."

LANDING ZONE TEAM:

Midnight

Present Mic

Ectoplasm

Red Riot

Ingenium

A snort escapes Lucy's lips. "If you want espionage and sabotage then I'm your girl!" She winks before giving a twirl and reshaping herself as one of Vilgax's red humanoid-drones. Which tries to jokingly pose tantalizingly for her audience.

To which Midnight whistles. "I like this one."

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Iida must admit but this red Plumber suit fits him perfectly, he'll be sure to wear it with honor.

"You seem like the responsible one of the group." Patelliday comments. "Why not, try this on for size." He presents Iida with a high-tech silver vambrace.

Iida recognizes the vambrace it's the item Deku wore during the Hosu Incident. "This is Midoriya's. Are you sure I should be using it?"

"Well, he can't exactly use it right now, can he?" Patelliday drops it into the lad's hands. "I'm sure he'd appreciate it if you got some use out of it."

"Thank you, sir. I shall make you proud!"

The old Plumber nods in approval before he goes fishing for another item. "Good and if it's not enough to do the job, you can use this!"

Patelliday's expression is stone cold as he delicately holds up the tiniest of blasters. A tiny, barely bigger than the palm of Iida's own hand with a needle-nose for a muzzle and a tiny trigger that feels like it'll snap when he pulls it.

Iida's entire body goes stiff as he examines the tiny seemingly harmless blaster that's been laid out before him. "I'll…use it wisely…"

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Thirteen finally cuts in to explain their part in all this. "Meanwhile, my team will be heading straight for the ship's power core. We take it out, we take out the ship, his drones, and his toys."

POWER CORE TEAM:

Thirteen

Snipe

Shoto

Bakugou

Creati

Blukic and Driba

"Why am I on this team?!" Bakugou shouts in complete irritation, finding it a complete waste of his own skills and talent. "I should be in the front turning that tyrant's face into calamari!"

Shoto gives him a look that says quite down. "Maybe it's because your Quirk is naturally suited for this."

"HUH!?"

Eraserhead pulls Thirteen and Snipe aside so they can speak privately. "Make sure to keep an eye on that one. Last thing we need is him blowing up the ship while we're still on it."

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Shoto may be able to produce ice but he's pretty sure he can't resist the cold of deep space so he's grateful to have the red Plumber suit available to him. "At least there can't be any more surprises after this."

As he leaves the locker room, a worried Thirteen hurries by while carrying a strange battery-shaped container that sparks wildly with electricity.

"What is that?" He dares to ask.

"Oh, it's just a little surprise I've been cooking up."

And as Thirteen hurries off Shoto is reconsidering his previous statement.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Cinder moves on to the next step of the plan. "With all the chaos created by the other teams, it will create the perfect window to allow the Rescue Team to do what they must. We will slip away to the Chimeran Hammer's prison and break our boys out."

RESCUE TEAM:

Cinder

Gran Torino

Magister Patelliday

Eraserhead

Tsukauchi

Uravity

Pinky

Chopper

"Once we have them it will be a race back to our landing zone for immediate extraction." He pauses and shares an understanding look with his old mentor. "We will get our boys home."

Gran Torino nods and smiles in appreciation.

"Of course, we will!" Uravity cheers along with Pinky and Chopper. "Yeah!/Wa-bop!^

"You're tagging along on this one, Eraserhead?" asks Tsukauchi.

"Of course, that Problem Child and that Big Oof are both my responsibility." Eraserhead grips his Capture Scarf so tightly his knuckles begin to creek. "If I'm going to scold them it's gonna be when they're both on solid ground again."

Tsukauchi smiles nervously assuming it's his own way of caring.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

The teachers, having dawned on their own white Plumber suits, are all lined up and waiting for the Gran Torino to hand them each a weapon best suited for this mission.

Gran Torino hands Midnight a deactivated, black-metaled hilt of an electrified-laser whip. He then gives Snipe a Needler and tosses Detective Tsukauchi a Phaser.

Next is Aizawa but the underground hero is skeptical. "Are you really sure this is necessary?"

"We're going up against drones programmed to annihilate all organic beings and although rare your Quirk will not be an asset up there. You need these." The old warrior then presents the young hero with an iconic looking blaster.

It's a one-handed blaster with a circular frame that's a soft-green in color. With a black trim, red highlights, a white metallic underlayer, and a sturdy grip providing a good grip for its wielder.

"It's a S.A.G.E. Gun. And it actually belongs to Midoriya, but his father thought it'd be more useful in your hands then his."

Delete (_) for Image Link: _www._deviantart._com/_voidv25/art/Deku-s-S-A-G-E-Gun-908079453

Aizawa hesitantly picks it up and slowly gives a spin around his fingers before catching it again. "I don't remember approving this."

"Eh, it was a souvenir he got over the summer." With the last hero armed and ready, Gran Torino hobbles off to get ready himself.

"Wait!" Aizawa calls. "What are you using?"

"Me?" Grano Torino smirks. "I'd never use something so uncivilized." And with that he makes his exit but from his opposite hand Eraserhead swears he saw the old man holding a strange high-tech silver hilt that should probably be accompanied with a sword or saber.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

"Remember the goal is retrieve and rescue." Magister Nezu is strict to remind. "Under no circumstances are you to engage Vilgax! Rescuing our student and teacher is our top priority!"

Xylene scowls at this, finding the mission illogical. "And what of the Omnitrix? Surely we are not leaving it in Vilgax's claws?"

"It's with Deku." Uravity quickly answers, her soul focus remaining on the task at hand. "Vilgax can't remove it. And if he did he'd have to discontent the DNA link between Deku and the Omnitrix. So, when we save Deku, we save the Omnitrix."

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Kirishima loves the red suit; it matches his aesthetic perfectly and the best part is that it's flexible enough for his Harden not to tear through it. "Now this is manly! Hahaha!" He laughs pounding his hard rock fists together so hard that they spark.

He leans down to pick up the giant high-tech warhammer that Thirteen left for him. He gives it a kick at the head, so it spins up and lands over and onto his shoulder where the massive head whirs with some mysterious power. "Now this is Manly."

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

"That is the extent of our plan." With a clap of his paws, Magister Nezu finishes the debrief. "Now are there any questions?"

"Yes!" Power Loader exclaims. "You assigned everyone else to a role but what about the rest of us?" Specifically, himself, Vlad King, Cementoss, Recovery Girl, and even the Principal himself.

Mina frowns as she considers another issue. "Hey, he's right. Also how are we all getting up there. We can't all fit in the RazorCrest?"

A chilling, thrilling smile stretches unnaturally across Magister Nezu's face. "Well, I am so glad you asked."

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Now it's strange enough on its own that Magister Nezu asked them all to step outside. But it's even stranger that he actually meant for them to wait out behind U.A. out on its forested hillside.

They each silently beg Nezu for an answer on why they are out there and half scan the sky expecting something to fly down. But no. Before anyone can even ask, the forest itself parts away as the hillside and the outside split apart like the Red Sea as the thunderous roar of engines shakes the ground and air around them. And everyone is left in utter shock-and-awe as the entirety of Japan's Plumber Base slowly rises out from the ground and to finally reveal it's true form!

The massive spaceship is truly a sight to behold. Looking like a Firefly Class Series 9 that's been outfitted and has had many additions added to it over the years. Creating a perfect blend of that old rustic ship design but upgraded with Plumber tech and engineering. Its massive engines roar with an ablaze of emerald. A single Red Spot glows brightly on the harbor and port sides of this mighty well armored craft. As its inscribed name glimmers under the sunlight and it reads: The Plus Ultra. Truly it is the empathy of a Plumber Command Ship to Nezu's own liking of course.

They're all speechless from the heroes to the students, but the only ones capable of speech are two of the original cadets.

"THIS WAS HERE THE WHOLE TIME!?" Uravity and Pinky are beyond flabbergasted and are now in full on hysterics.

"YOU NEVER KNEW!?" Their teachers and friends scream as Thirteen and Cinder blush and act all sheepish since they in fact did know and for once forgot to tell them.

Although, Magister Nezu is greatly enjoying himself as The Plus Ultra continues to rise. "Hahahahahaha! I do so enjoy a good twist! Hahahahaha!"

FLIGHT TEAM:

Magister Nezu

Xylene

Vlad King

Power Loader

Cementoss

Recovery Girl

One-One

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

Cinder is a man on a mission. His armor is polished, his respirator is locked, and his spear, the Amenonuhoko, is freshly sharpened to the point it'll year through the Octopus' flesh like a hot knife through butter.

But as he strides through the halls of the base a nervous and wary Inko confronts him. "T-this is all…b-beyond me."

Cinder-...Hisashi comes to a stop, removing his respirator before holding her tight. "Nothing is beyond you or Izuku…"

"You…you kept all this from me." She weeps.

"I…I did."

"And my baby…!"

"We'll bring him home and then…I'll make it right by you. No matter what."

She sniffs, wiping away the tears as she clutches so tight to his armor that he's afraid it might crack. "Just…just do one thing for me."

"Anything."

"When you find my baby, tell him that I miss him sooo sooo much and that I love him with all my heart."

The warm fire in Hisashi's chest swells and with a solemn yet determined smile he vows to do so.

"Also tell him…that he's grounded for 5 months." She states rather affirmably despite how scared and worried she really is.

Hisashi chuckles, figuring that 5 months is actually an extremely light punishment, all things considered. "I'll do you one better and make sure you get to tell him that himself."

She smiles back but there is some hesitancy. "You're so sure you'll succeed…"

"Of course, I am." Hisashi turns his and her gaze down towards the end of the hall. "When our boy and his friends come together they are INVINCIBLE."

From down the hall, Uravity strides down the hall as if in slow motion in her new Hero suit. It's almost exactly the same as before except for the slimmer belt and wrist bands. But what truly stands out is the rabbit-ear like headpiece on her head. It's clearly high-tech and slim, a signature marvel from the mind of Melissa Shield.

As she strides through the hall she is soon joined by her fellow, red-armored cadets. To the left a red-cladded Bakugou cocks his fists back to ensure that his Grenade Gauntlets are locked on.

Then to her right strides out a cool and collected Shoto.

Pinky slides in from overhead before kicking off of Deku's hoverboard before she catches it and tucks it under her arm.

At the same time Creati gives the expanded Zircon Sword a swirl before sheathing it to her back.

Ingenium has a red version of a Plumber helmet over his head, fitting since it somewhat resembles his own. And then to his left he brandished Midoriya's Omni-Shield from the silver vambrace on his arm.

And finally Red Riot rounds them all out with a shark-like grin and with a massive hammer slung over his Hardened shoulder.

~~~~~~~~~Cherry Bomb!~~~~~~~~~

With their entire attack force suited up, armed, and loaded there's nothing left for them all to gather around in the ship's command center. Each gazing out from the massive windows as the Plumber Command Ship slowly rises in a grand whirlwind of power. That kicks branches and winds across the faces of Inko, Mitsuki, Eirene, Mr. Baumann, ML-E, and many of the other alien citizens down below. They all wave and cheer wishing the heroes the best of luck and prayers of hope even as the ship vanishes from sight underneath a powerful cloaking device.

"This is really happening, huh?" Kirishima half-jokes, growing more and more nervous as the cloaked ship slowly climbs further and further from the ground.

"This is it everyone." Nezu begins from atop his command chair. "This is the moment we deliver justice. This is the moment we defeat evil and return hope. This is the moment that shall prove how strong our bonds are. There is nothing more I can ask of any of you except for one thing." Looking out to the sky ahead, Magister Nezu announces the following with all his heart. "To Go Beyond!"

Not one person doesn't have a smile of confidence, reassurance as they all shout out as one defining force. "PLUS ULTRA!"

[STOP PLAYING "Cherry Bomb - The Runaways"]

And together they are off, and they all brace together as the ship begins to break through the burning atmosphere. Towards the stars above.

"Hang in there, Deku. All Might. We're on our way."

Izuku Midoriya is left bloodied and bruised across the floor with his previous form's massive imprint cratered into the ground.

Vilgax marches forth with the Extraction Device in hand as the boy coughs and sputters.

"You-*Cough!* The Omnitrix-*Cough!* will never be yours…*Cough!* It's bound to my *Cough!* DNA…"

His act of defiance is admirable but oh so amusing to the Grand Destroyer. "For some time now, I have been wondering what kind of legacy you would leave behind when you're gone. But now I know."

Suddenly he thrusts the device down at Izuku, almost as if he's going to impale him on those claw-like stands but instead of striking flesh the claws pierce the ground around the boy's left arm, thus surrounding the Omnitrix. "When my work is complete. Not a soul will remember your name. No one will know of the pitiful being known as Deku! Not one being in this entire universe will call you a HERO!"

The machine bursts to life and suddenly the Omnitrix unleashes a sphere of green light that propels the device back.

"Gaah-RAAAAGH!" Not so easily deterred,Vilgax brings the device back down, breaking through the orb of light with shattering strength. And from the center of the device's base a large needle-like mechanism jets out and locks itself to the Omnitrix faceplate causing an array of green lightning to discharge across the dome.

"AAaah! AAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" The boy wails in pain, unable to act. And neither is the former hero. "NO! Stop It! PLEASE, SPARE HIM!" Toshinori thrashes, in Nue's grip but to no avail.

"He's just a kid! STOOOP!" Kraab begs from within Nue's claws.

One final wail pierces their ears as the Omnitrix's band begins to split and it struggles to stay bound to the boy's flesh. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"

"YOUNG MIDORIYA!"

With a chilling snap the Omnitrix is forcibly released and inhaled right into the extraction device before ejected out and into the glowing globe at the end of the machine. And just like that the dome falls to silence as the Omnitrix is left in suspended animation within its new prison.

It. Is. Done.

"Yes. Yes! Finally! HAHAHAHAHAAAA! After all this time! The Omnitrix, is MIIIIIINE!"

Vilgax's laughter rages across the entire ship as the Negative Nine watch on with either great interest or chilling fear. Nue grins, releasing Toshinori who falls to his knees in despair and so too does Kraab fall. Both unable to look away from the weak, teary eyed boy who lays motionless after being dealt such a defeat by the hands of Vilgax the Conqueror of Worlds.

The Negative Nine draws in close, awestricken at the sheer marvel of the Omnitrix, at how small it is, how seemingly simple, yet that power. It's all too enticing.

"Dare to touch it and you will find your hands separated from your body." Vilgax warns his eyes glowing a ruby red as his muscular tentacles bulge burning red.

They instantly backoff, taking the hint and forgetting about any ideas of betrayal…for now.

But Vilgax does not seem worried as he holds up the electrified yellow globe. "Not like you can get to it anyway. This orb is ray shielded and encoded to only open for me. This will be the closest any of you will be to holding it."

"Why not just equip it already?" questions a skeptical Sunder. "Be done with it. And with us…"

"Not yet. There are other uses I wish to utilize." Vilgax explains as the Omnitrix slowly rotates from within the globe as it remains trapped in a suspended state. "The potential. The power. None of you even realize the true significance of it all."

Izuku remains on the ground, cold, defeated, and out of breath, the pain is too much. Not the pain of his exposed empty wrist or the pain across his body but the pain of defeat is eating him from the inside out. He searches for help, for hope, but the fallen expressions of Toshinori and Kraab more than quell his wishful thinking.

"No longer is the Omnitrix a plaything. To be used by the whims of a child playing pretend. Now it can serve its true purpose."

It's like a hammer breaking a dented nail. It's useless, he…he has no powers. No Quirk. Nothing… He had his chance to stop Vilgax. He had his chance to save his friends. His home. But he failed. And like that his chances at becoming a hero are gone. The Omnitrix is gone, out of his reach. He's back to being nothing more than a useless, Quirkless Deku…

'I'm useless…' Toshinori falls to despair, he desperately claws at the ground, tries to claw toward his crying student but he can't reach him. He can't grab him. He can't save him. It's the same, it's always been the same. He's never truly been able to reach that boy and hold him up like he should have been all this time. And now, he may never get the chance… 'Young Midoriya…' He no longer resists, and instead falls to his knees as he's completely fallen to despair.

So much so with a taunting smirk Nue lets him go, letting him fall to the ground, defeated.

Delete (_) for Image Link: _www._deviantart._com/_voidv25/art/Henzu-Monster-883288185

The Negative Nine, particularly Rojo smirk, amused and taking a sickening enjoyment at the sight of the fallen champion.

"With the ultimate weapon in my grasp and with Earth's mightiest defender fallen. Claiming this planet for myself will be effortless."

Psyphon grows excited at his master's declaration, however, an alert over his earpiece puts a damper on the celebration. "Master!"

Vilgax never turns his gaze away from the Omnitrix as he addresses his underling. "What is it now, Psyphon?"

"Word has come from the command center, there is a ship breaking Earth's orbit."

He pauses at that. "A Freighter class?"

"No, Master." Psyphon seems almost nervous as he responds. "It's a Carrier class."

Now he has Vilgax's full attention. "Show me."

Psyphon activates the dome arena from his wrist pad and immediately the hexagonal panels light up once again like they had before. But this time they don't just reveal the Earth and the moon but instead it zooms in towards a massive spaceship breaking through the Earth's atmosphere.

Instantly the villains' eyes lock onto the Plumber Red Spots decorating the The Plus Ultra's wells armored sides.

Izuku slowly blinks at the image, in disbelief of what he's seeing he accidently asks aloud. "W-what is that…?"

"That." Vilgax responds with mirth and hate. "Is the feeble attempt at a counterattack from your allies."

Izuku's, Toshinori's, and Kraab's heads snap up so fast that one might think they had all just woken up from a nightmare. But like how most nightmares end you only find yourself in a dark room with little around to comfort your fearful heart as Nue's haunting laughter fills the void.

"Hahaha! The Plumbers are coming? Here?! Hahaha! With just one U.F.O. between them?! HA! They all must really want to die together!"

Vilgax, however, is far more skeptical and not so easily misguided. "No. The Firebreather is not so reckless to attack alone without a plan." He keeps his eyes peeled on the rising ship as if anticipating some Plumber-like scheme or twist. "They are not alone."

Izuku's not sure why, maybe it's a gut feeling, or instincts but…he doesn't like the thought of that. If that is true then…who exactly is on that ship? Who's risking their life for them…? They have no idea the danger they're in, they could be-

"Not to worry Master." Psyphon types away at his wrist pad. "We shall jump from the system before they get into range."

Vilgax watches the ship as it breaks through the last reach of the planet's atmosphere before giving Psyphon his verdict. "Belay that order."

Psyphon does a double take. "But Master-?!" A single red glowing glare from his master silences the minion.

"I do not wish to exit from this system quite yet." Vilgax turns to his subordinates, raising a hand to them as if he's imagining himself holding them up like shining trophies. "I have crafted the perfect legion of warriors and they are yet to prove themselves in battle." He trunks back towards the Plumber Command Ship with a newfound sense of thrill. "This will be the perfect display of power. We will not leave. We will stand our ground and fight until all of them are crushed beneath our feet."

The promise of battle, glory, and violence. How can any of the Negative Nine say no? The answer: they can't. And the shit-eating grins on their faces are proof of that.

"But I am not so conceited as to not take precautions. Ragnarok, transport the Omnitrix to the lab and prepare for the next procedure as we discussed."

Ragnarok gives a bow as Vilgax willingly hands over the glowing globe containing the Omnitrix. Ragnarok takes it, holding it gingerly in his hands as the electricity of the orb threatens to turn his hands into ash if he dares to tamper with it.
"And remember. Attempt to betray me in any way and I will make your vaporization a slow and painful one."

"There is no need to remind me." Ragnarok scowls. "I know my place."

"As you should. And take the Charlotte Project with you." Vilgax gestures to the massive machine he just used minutes ago in order to take the powers of the Nomus which now lie on the floor motionless like corpses. "Keep it safe, it is…a prototype after all."

Ragnarok gives a bow to confirm his standing before taking his leave with the globe in hand and as a legion of drones follow him out as the last squad of robots carry out the Charlotte project behind him like it were the arc of the covenant.

Nue skeptically watches the solar powered freak leave with the Omnitrix, and he doesn't like it, not one bit. "Next procedure?" he questions. "What are you talking about?"

"All For One delivered me what I was promised." Well for the most part, but even so, he was promised power for power. "However, I have still yet to hold up my end of the bargain."

Now this is news, Nue can only assume it was part of their "discussion" from when the two first met. "And what exactly are you giving him in return?"

"The same thing we are going to deliver upon these vermin that are foolish enough to challenge me." He pauses as he gazes up once again at the approaching ship before he gives an ominous resolution. "Calamity."

The prisoners' hearts drop in response, so much so their breaths escape them.

Which only grabs the attention of the alien villains like Sunder. "What should we do with these two?" asks the smirking grey goblin. "I mean it's not like they're much of a threat anymore."

Rojo scoffs in response. "We got ourselves a withered old man and a powerless runt right here."

"They…are no longer of any use to anybody." Vilgax exposes his back to the two weak humans without any hint of worry. "Keep them locked away in here and post a squadron of drones to oversee them." He lifts his gaze once again to the display of the Plumber ship before declaring. "Let them watch as their comrades' corpses float away into the abyss."

"You son of a BITCH!" Kraab spouts while trying and failing to slip through Nue's claws.

Delete (_) for Image Link: _www._deviantart._com/_voidv25/art/Kraab-937559263

Vilgax's gaze glows red once again but they soon dim away, figuring that this pest is beneath him. "And send that traitorous piece of filth where it belongs."

"I nwok xacelyt heerw uyo lognbe." Even with his helmet on, everyone can tell that SevenSeven is smiling underneath it as he snatches the struggling Kraab from Nue's grip. "Nad os odes nya trSa arWs nfa."

Izuku weakly but desperately reaches for his friend but not even his legs bother to move at his command. And he's left watching as SevenSeven's claws dig into Kraab's plating.

Meanwhile, Vilgax does even bother to give the boy a second glance.

With a sniff and a swipe at his tearing face Izuku can do nothing but choke and sob. "You're…you're a…"

"A monster? A villain? I am much more than any of that." He finally acknowledges the boy only to glorify his own existence. "I am Vilgax the Conqueror! And once I have destroyed the last of the resistance Earth has to offer, your planet and all its potential will be mine! Hahahahaha!"

That terrible laughter will haunt their nightmares for years to come. But then again will they have that long? Both Izuku and Toshinori are left to wonder as they watch as their friends and the last of their hope slowly rises towards the never-ending void.

To be continued…

*Ch.81 Induction is complete. Sort of, I was hoping to start some of the combat and stuff but I wanted to post this in time so I cut it where I could. I still think it works. But yeah next time we will be seeing how the Rescue Team invades Vilgax's ship, how they split up, who they fight, who was All Might's cell neighbor, and more. It won't be the big finale of the arc or anything, but it'll be the start! So get ready.

Although I will admit that because of Thanksgiving I haven't had time to start the next chapter yet. Sooo, yeah. I'll get on that next chance I get.

In any case, thanks again for enjoying this story for the last 4 years.

*So, I had a lot of Easter Eggs and even more things to set up in this chapter too. The new recruits got new toys to play with. They won't keep them, but I'll be using these as avenues to give them new gear later down the line. Oh, and yeah the Plumber Base was a spaceship all along. I had that planned for literally over 4 years now. Yes, I had this planned since I posted Ch.1. Don't believe me? Well, I tried my best to describe the interior of the Firefly when Izuku first visited Plumber Base. Except that Nezu's version of the ship is waaaaay bigger and adapted more for combat and carrying other smaller ships. In any case did you catch all the easter eggs and references? Let me know.

Responses for "Guest" reviewers from Ch.80:

Grimm: Another spectacular episode, every day raising the bar even higher, and thank you for officially giving us THE NEGATIVE NINE, hehehe I really like the phrase, now to wait for the others to come and help, and use all the AF and UA weapons as Quirks was very ingenious, I didn't see it coming!, and I see that Henzu is increasingly doubting his evil. Will we see Qwarel later? Please say yes, I feel like he was wasted in the franchise, I mean he is Kevin's real father for the entire fandom XD, and please don't kill All Might, some said they should die in this arc, but I say NO , he needs to be alive to redeem himself from everything he did to Deku and his students, perhaps by not having the title of symbol of peace now he can be a true teacher for the class. Now here I have some questions suggestions

When will Rook appear? Will he be sent by the magistrate to monitor them, due to the disobedience of our protagonists? I would love for him to appear more through interactions, like how Bakugou insults him and doesn't understand him, which makes Bakugou even more angry, or how he is similar to Lida (it's basically his alien version) or how, unlike Ben, he has a lot of respect for him. Midoriya and admires him more for his abilities despite not taking him seriously when he first saw him due to his shyness and adorable appearance.

Is the SAGE gun a predecessor of the proto-took? Since the functions are similar, only the Proto-took is a more compact version of the SAGE and much less lethal and its modifications are more restricted, and by the way, does the SAGE have a back mode? I imagined it as the lightsaber from no more heroes

Guardian-Sigil: It was so difficult to stay quiet and not tell people what I had planned for the Negative Nine and Vilgax's powers. I wanted to say something sooo badly but I hung in there. As of now I have no plans for Qwarl although I would like to figure it out. Just know that he may not appear in this story. Also I agree, All Might needs to stay alive for now. But that said he is not gonna walk away from this ordeal unscathed.

Assuming you read the chapter already, there was a hint to Rook's arrival in the story. It won't occur during this Arc or even the next arc but he does exist within this universe. And he will appear eventually. Just right now is not a good time to introduce new characters.

Yes the idea is that the SAGE Gun as a brand is centuries old and as that design and tech developed it evolved into the proto-tool. Because I do plan on giving the gun more functions…like a sword or something

Atom king: I am just speechless at how incredibly awesome this chapter is, vilgax showing off to Izuku and All might why he's the most fear being in the know universe especially now that he has possibly hundreds of powers in his body at his beck and call now add the Omnitrix into that equation well it's been nice knowing the universe, still this is really got me excited for the next chapter as i hope that we go back to earth and see how our newly deputize plumbers preparing for their rescue mission.

Guardian-Sigil: Well this chapter was a bit of a breather. The calm before the epic storm as it were. We are leaving Earth for now and in for a wild ride in space!

---

Grimm again: Will we see a Jurry Rigg vs Hatsume to see who is the better builder or inventor, I can already imagine Kraab and Chopper fearing for their lives when seeing these two together hahaha

and I have some suggestions like certain abilities for Snare-oh like sand manipulation/generating it, controlling beetles or being able to harden his bandages almost as strong as Aizawa (who should train him to use his combat style) and speaking of He, it would be funny if in the anur system they mistake him for a mummy or zombie, just like All Might in his skeleton form, plus Tokoyami would love the anur system for its aesthetics and supernatural beings and would ask Midoriya if they could come again , and it would be interesting how dark shadow reacts to the darkness of the planet since it would not be the same as on earth

I would love to see Aizawa fascinated by the proto-took and I would order one for him.

And I have a question, are all aliens capable of receiving Quirks without any problem? Yes, Vilgax already has several but I imagine that his body is not made to have Quirks as such, like omega rays, they wear out his eyes due to the precision of moving them or that in inorganic beings such as malware they are not effective, bio- fist that in the long run will hurt his arms since Quirks are like muscles, they have a limit and it would be spectacular if Vilgax did not take that much into account.

Guardian-Sigil: Oh it'll happen eventually. I did consider Jury Rig to appear during the Road Trip arc at one point. So I will rectify that eventually and get him introduced in the story next time it makes sense

I cannot wait till I incorporate my version of Anur. It's gonna be fun

Can all aliens wield Quirks? Perhaps. Perhaps not. Perhaps it's something I'm going to explore later? Who's to say?

---

Guest: 20/10 y God, aunque me hubiera gustado que el combate se hubiera llevado a cabo en la tierra, no decepciona, ahora falta saber como podrán ganarle a un vilgax mejorado, y a nada de obtener un ejército de alienigenas del omnitrix

Guardian-Sigil: Well hopefully the Plumber's plan can succeed I guess only time will tell

---

SilverKirito74: Holly shit its been several months since my last review. Long story short if I wasn't visiting the doctor someone else in my family was.

Anyway the last couple of chapters have been a rollercoaster of emotion that only gets crazier by chapter and if he wasn't terrifying as he already is, you integrated small aspects of thanos into vilgax's demonstration of power which is just insane. Now if i have to guess the next 2 to 4 chapters will be crazy and the wait will be worth it.

Guardian-Sigil: I was hoping to get the combat started in this chapter but I didn't make it in time. But I think what we have works for now. A quick breath of air before we plunge back into the dark depths is what this is

---

DeadCool14: What a great birthday gift! Holy shit that was so damn much! Shit just went sideways in the most colossal way possible. Didn't think that would happen right now

In the pop-up trivia Ben described that getting the Omnitrix ripped from him felt like getting a very sticky band-aid off a sunburn. He got lucky in comparison

So will Vilgax now also have some of his UAF looks? Because I found this cool art on reddit that's a pretty good in-between of Classic and UAF. Unless one of your guys is already working on that

So are those veins that Vilgax has around his arms and legs not part of species anymore and just due to his Quirk? Because he already had those in classic before he got blowned up

Really thought the fight between Deku and Vilgax would be more gory, unless you're saving that for later

Well now that Vilgax is in his UAF self, I can probably guess what will happen next

Isn't one of his titles The Rising Star?

Yeah, but I meant like Hisashi would mention Shag Carpeting is his and Inko's favorite band, and that it was playing when they met?

Hot Fuzz is a police comedy film, it's part of the Cornetto Trilogy. They are hilarious and amazing, they have so much rewatchability, everytime you watch it you find another fun little easter egg or gag

Sucks you didn't do the Be Afraid moment. There's this cool video from SuperSodaPie doing something like that, it's really good

Guardian-Sigil: Glad I could deliver on time.

Yeah I wanted the experience for Izuku to be painful. I mean it's a watch that's genetically linked to him for over a year so it should hurt. Right?

I still like his Classic look the best and even with these new powers, physically he looks the same until his Quirk(s) is/are activated. But I'll take a look at some of those designs

The veins are still his. They always were

How gory should I have made Vilgax vs. Izuku's fight?

Yes one of his titles is Rising Star but the point Vilgax is trying to make that he hasn't earned that title or the Deku name.

I'll try to refer to Shag Carpeting at some point I'm sure

Oh yeah I remember Hot Fuzz now! I need to rewatch it ASAP

---

Shark: I enjoyed your portrayal of Vilgax here. I like that he didn't just call All Might pathetic or anything generic. He genuinely respected All Might and even said if he was in his prime he would have beaten him. Also I was wondering how you would do the fight between Izuku and Vilgax. Giving Vilgax more quirks was the only real way to prolong this fight considering the experience and training Izuku had during this time. I can't wait to see where this goes.

Guardian-Sigil: Yeah a lot of people were like oh Vilgax is gonna beat All Might's ass and humiliate him! And I'm sitting like…no. Yes, Vilgax should win but I'm not here to bash characters. Yes is there conflict between All Might and Izuku, yes, but that was the point. It was fro drama. Anyway, if you liked the Vilgax vs. Izuku fight just wait until they have their Grudge Match ;)

---

DeadCool14 again: Also I think you mentioned this before but did Vilgax already have the spikes that injected him with steroids? Because of his Inflame Quirk

If you read Team-Up Missions then will you use Shinso's skill to read people's lips? If you don't know that then look up Mangatoto, you can find a lot more issues there, there's a really good one with Deku and Bakugou, it's also a technically a prologue for Heroes Rising.

Look up Earthworm Jim haggis on Youtube, it's a great recurring joke; Deku and Hisashi would fit like a glove in it XD

Also Spaceballs references. It's a Star Wars parody, it goddamn hilarious, you can find it on Youtube. Trust me, you'll laugh your ass off

Will you include Gorvan? He's a corrupt Tetramand Plumber, I think he's a neat character. He first appeared in the Alien Force videogame, but then showed up in Omniverse

You missed opportunity a huge oppotunity for jokes when picking Bullfrag's name. In Omniverse 2, the game, Ben throws around the names Crazy Legs and Aquattack, you could have added Battletoad, since that's what Bullfrag is based off of. And have Tsu roast them

Y'know, I just realized something, when Deku gets Blitzwolfer, Wildmutt becomes useless. Blitzwolfer can do everything he can, plus stand bipedal and talk. So, what if, Wildmutt gets the power to shoot off his quills? It's been stated in the merch and website, used in comics and games and even referenced in Race Against Time with his design. You could say that's a puberty thing for Vulpimancers, like Swampfire's Blossomed Form; and the adults eventually grow out of it and gain that big ol' scorpion tail. Also fun fact: Wildmutt also uses them to help with detecting his surroundings

What do you think of these powers for Humungousaur?

-First: He can selectively choose what parts of his body to grow, like he throws a punch and right before impact puts the full growth of his body in it. This would be something that Deku discovered and no Vaxasaurian has ever done.

-Second: Underwater Breathing. I thought of it after the Terradino episode of And Beyond, which says it has giant oceans, so I imagine they fish and learned to breathe water so they don't drown because they're too heavy to swim, and reading some Hulk comics, where they how he can talk underwater. Quote from the wiki: "The Hulk is able to breathe due to his body developing a gland which creates an oxygenated perfluorocarbon emulsion which fills his lungs and equalizes the pressure. He is therefore able to breathe fluid and avoid decompression and nitrogen narcosis."

Humungou has characteristics from several dinosaur already so why not a little Mosasaur too?

Guardian-Sigil: Yes he has the spikes already that enhance his strength as is. But now he has the Inflame Quirk added onto that.

Yes, I do read and have read the Team-Up Missions.

I'll check out that vid

Spaceballs, oh boy, this is gonna be fun

I always had plans to include Gorvan but I was gonna wait to introduce him

Shit I did miss those opportunities to fake-name Bullfrag. Dang it! Hmmm…maybe an Omake?

Yes people have suggested the quills thing before. I never knew that was a thing since the show never bothered to explore that. Also Wildmutt's senses are still way more advanced then Blitzwolfers. And a lot of these points can be made for a lot of Ben's aliens Eatle and Upchuck, all his electricity aliens, Wildvine and Swampfire, Stinkfly and Jetray, Articguana and Big Chill. Etc. I'm sure I'll find my own twists for each of these, but I'll be sure to keep the quill thing in mind

I'm not gonna give Humungousaur extra powers. Also we live on a planet that is 71% covered in water with cultures and people and countries setting roots wherever there is water and yet we can't Breathe Water. Also Hippos don't Breathe Water either, heck they don't float they literally sink and gracefully hop through the water. So I guess I am saying that evolutionary wise, this doesn't make sense.

Also Mosasaur is not a dino. It's actually a reptile. Like Pterodactyls are flying lizards and not dinosaurs either.

Side note there is evidence dinos like T-Rex were able to swim.

Sorry didn't mean to get into it but that part of my brain wouldn't let it go. Thanks anyway for sharing it still fun to hear of new ideas because they can and have inspired other ideas

---

DeadCool14 again again: VA and Omake ideas:

-OVA of the X'Nelli episode of And Beyond

-Halloween Omakes: Killer Klowns from Outer Space and the horror movie Stitches, which also has a killer clown

-Hisashi's version of Simple

-The dinner scene from Race Against Time, but it's a goodbye party for the Aldera third years and Deku gets payback

In the birthday OVA, what was the second outfit and final outfits references to? Also, shocked you didn't reference other Ben 10 outfits, like the suit from Big Fat Alien Wedding (unless you're saving that for later) or the Speed Racer style get up Ben has when he's in his bike

Also I just now realize there wasn't a scene with Henzu, like maybe him acknowledging that it was Deku's birthday?

Do you think Argit gave Deku an I.O.U as a birthday present?

Does Deku improve on his drawing skill as a hobby? I imagine that after meeting more aliens, he'd want to be as good as drawing as possible to get as many detailed images as he can. He'd take some pointers from Tom Perkins' art lol

Did Aizawa and Mandalay hook-up at somepoint? Like they dated during UA?

Will the device that Aggregor used to dampen the Andromeda 5's abilities show up? Because that can be incredibly useful, depending on who is uing it. It probably sends out a sort of frequency to their brains that prevents them to use their natural abilities, like an improved version of Erasure

Would the class give Deku a haircut, specifically an undercut, which he has in a lot of fanart, and the girls find him way more attractive so the boys decide to never get his hair cut again?

Will you change Nana's Quirk? Because since Ochako can technically already fly, or at least will learn to, it would be a little redundant and pointless for her to have that power

Would Deku and You Shindo (the quake guy )be nemesis online? And they don't know until they meet for the exam?

Omake Idea: Deku runs into some old Aldera classmates and they mess with him (mostly due to jealousy). The girls are around and help him out by pretending they're on a date and they're fighting over him, grabbing and hugging him, maybe two of them kiss him on each cheek, and then when they're gone they realize Deku went catatonic.

Sorry about all those questions in the comments, I really went overboard this time. I promise I'll never do it again and be more careful. But hey, how about this one time we say it was because it was my birthday when you posted the previous chapter, ok? XD

Guardian-Sigil: I am ignoring this port. Why? Because I need you to post this to the side story "Heroes Never Die; It's Hero Time, Anytime" review page. Why? Because in Ch.1 of that sidestory I laid out the guidelines of how you should be submitting Omake and OVA ideas.

Why do this? Because then I can actually refind this review later. So if you want any of these to have a chance of happening you need to repost this review over there.

DeadCool14 again again again again: What site do you look up kanji? I'd like to check it out

Guardian-Sigil: Kanji - Japanese Dictionary Tangorin

Guest: /MVTEOGWhnF0?si8bzUbKRrDHRE648_

This was supposed to say the link to the Ink Tank video talking about all the powers Ben 10 Alien only used once or rarely, but it's really annoying how these links don't seem to work here

Guardian-Sigil: You don't need to send me links to Ink Tank. I'm subscribed to them. I mean I do have OVAs where Rattle (from their Anur And Beyond) shows up.

Also to make links work you need to break them up with "spaces" so fanfic can't register them.

For Example:

youtu_.be/_YXKRwTSJHLI?si=B2-kgwXM9AijxoX

And then I would copy and paste this and delete the spaces (_) and TADA have a URL code

BlueRanger-Lyric: Wow, this was an amazing chapter, and damn, that's a lot to take in, not only did we have All Might's fight against Vilgax, but it ended with All Might losing One For All and it not being enough to defeat him, that was a real gut punch to see that all of All Might's efforts was or only a drop of blood, and then Deku's fight with the Negative Nine and even Vilgax himself, and despite everything he put into the fight, it was all for naught, especially since Vilgax is even stronger now with all the quirks he now has, three from each Nomu, and I like how you made the powers he gets from the UAF not only work but also make a little more sense, especially when he took inspiration for All For One, I wonder if this will make the Magisters rethink leaving Vilgax alone, especially if it results in him getting stronger and more powerful, but now something else has crossed my mind, since what Vilgax has are quirks, does this make Aizawa more valuable to have around, especially if he can erase the quirks Vilgax has, now it makes me think the rescue team has a chance to succeed, but I'm also left to wonder how Deku will get the Omnitrix back, so yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes next in this arc~

P.S. I have a feeling that All Might's cell neighbour was none other than Ultimos, especially with what I know and could pick up on

Guardian-Sigil: Yes, Aizawa's Quirk should effect Vilgax but much like the Nomu his natural strength will not be hindered.

Oh, Ultimos. Good guess. We'll have to find out next time though

---

Thunder Dragon: I knew it! All Might knows and Izuku has a long way to go. Hopefully Izuku pulls a miracle and saves the day.

Now I loved the way you used Quirks to give Vilgax powers that he received from his weapons in UAF, I was wondering how you were going to implement those. I can't wait to see the students' reactions to seeing Malware alive again and wonder how they'll feel about fighting aliens.

Now here are the negatives. I apologize if I'm going to sound frustrated now but I'm really hoping Ochaco and Katsuki get a near complete defeat from Vilgax. And here is a suggestion as to how to make it happen.

Make sure Ochako loses One For All as Vilgax is not an idiot and as she uses more of he becomes aware of who has that Quirk and he uses the Power Siphon. This needs to happen for two reasons. The first reason is to nerf her as she has become to OP and also the former is to give her a loss cause I feel like Ochaco is getting way too many wins while Izuku gets less and nerf her as after reading all of this story you made her two strong for the story and also to show her that there's a whole universe out there and that she is now just a another fish in a a very Large pond and she gave power to The Great White Shark in this analogy. But just to add that extra bit of angst to rub in how the good guys screwed up and need to get better after Vilgax gains All for One he then uses it to conquer the ten worlds Vilgax conquered in cannon and gain even more power.

However to make sure Ochacho is not written out of the story but is put in the back ground she only loses One for All and not her Uravity Quirk. Also it would make Vilgax become a more dangerous opponent and for Izuku to take his responsibilities with the Watch seriously as Vilgax is now a bigger threat to the universe at large.

Again, I apologize for sounding frustrated, it's that Ochaco is getting way too many moments to shine while Izuku still remains a butt monkey that still flinches whenever Bakugo yells at him. If the girl is still going to be relevant then she must gets nerfed and so we can take the focus to Izuku.

Now I do hope we see some of the ideas of the guests come through. But here are my ideas again.

I would love to have Vilgax reveal the secrets of Aliens being real to not only stoke fear about Aliens on Earth as Vilgax exposes them and this has them scared.

Now this leads to another suggestion. As much as I hate to say it but All Might has got to go. Have Toshinori sacrifice his life to save Izuku and also cover the others retreat and uses the last of his power to hold back Vilgax which costs him his life as he dies at the claws of Vilgax.

First off maybe we can the world's government create a task force that act as the world police and this gives a bit of politically charged edge to the story and their purpose is that this task force is meant to contain what the world thinks are Alien Criminals but the organization also contains innocent Aliens just trying to live on Earth and some of the Alien Refugees but this task does not care and is not willing to give nonhumans Their time in court or even due process of law. See Prisoner 775 and his debut episode.

Second we need to see Izuku struggle more with the Watch. And I cannot think of any better than you using Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix (2007) to make the world spin on its head.

This gets Azmuth gets involved as Izuku's mentor and to start that arc out when Izuku learns that the Omnitrix can restore alien species maybe he works to find a home land for Aliens who have lost their planet(Cannon Bolt species anyone?)and restore extinct alien species seeing as Izuku is trying to use the Watch as one of the ways it was originally intended to be used(I am watching and waiting for you Highbreed)this gets Azmuth's approval and he upgrades the Omnitrix to be as powerful as it was in the original shows and teaches him how to who after getting over his issues he then gets a stronger play set and a power boost to his Watch and also he trains Izuku in how to better use his alien forms and the Alien Forms eventually get as strong as they are in the original shows.

Guardian-Sigil: I'm getting really tired of people telling me to nerf Ochaco. I F*ING GET IT! I am going to fix it just let me do it MY WAY. I never meant it to be this way I just wanted to focus on Izuku and kinda skip over her stuff/struggles for efficiency's sake. Basically I was being lazy so I can do the stuff for Izuku. But in any case this is a dual-protagonist story. Even if it wasn't Ochaco that got OFA who ever did whether it was Mirio, Bakugou, or whomever they would always have been the other main character.

Also she has F*ING LOST. She lost against Charmcaster. Lost her friends to the League of Villains. And she's going up against an army of aliens and drones, how do you think this is gonna play out? So just let me do my thing. And if you have doubts just think of this: this ARC is marking a CHANGE in the story.

Also writing ut OFA and All Might completely is…stupid. 1. OFA is a huge part of MHA why in the F-ing would I get rid of it. 2. Is All Might destined to never redeem himself? No. He's sticking around. He still has a lot of major roles to play for our students and heroes. 3. I want you to list how many chapters focus majority of the time on Deku vs. Ochaco and then tell me who is has more screen time. 4. If aliens weren't revealed while on Earth, what makes you think they will be revealed now? 5. I have ideas. Just trust me. Everything is a slow burn.

---

Metal Lizard: Well I don't expect this likethe prisoners in fact how did Vilgax manage to capture Starro Starscream and The Almighty Tallets? also will Zim apper later I know that he already made an appearance when Deku was learing about the Aliens on Earth so maybe after when this Arc is over Zim can come back like since he saw that Vilgax tried to conquer the planet Zim would most likey try to come up with a plan to try and conquer the planet for The Irkin Empire and maybe see a reaction of him learing that The Tallest are prisoners on Vilgax's ship.

Guardian-Sigil: Perhaps. It's a fun Omake or OVA idea but I'm not gonna go that far into it

---

Number: , con esto se confirman mis sospechas de que Vilgax será el

equivalente a Thanos en esta historia.

cierto si quieres tengo unos cuantos personajes que podrían

aparecer a futuro:

Biowulf (Generador Rex)

Durge (Clone Wars 2D)

Adam Warlock ( Guardianes de la Galaxia 3)

K2SO (Rogue One)

De cualquier modo, fue hasta ahora el capítulo con más tensión, bien hecho..

Guardian-Sigil: Vilgax is the Thanos? What gave it away? ;)

Believe me I have considered almost all these characters.

---

Dinobot: So now that Vilgax has the Omnitrix will he use the Alien DNA from it to the Nomu's since they don't have Quirks anymore Vilgax could use them as a test to see the results before he uses the Omnitrix for his army and the Nomus would have the Alien DNA in them and transfome like Nue and would have different Alien parts and powers they would be mindless soldiers that do what they are told by Vilgax as for the three Nomus that will be fused with Alien DNA

Nomu#1 Diamondhead,Heatblast,Four Arms,XLR8

Nomu#2 Stinkfly,Feedback,Ghostfreak

Nomu#3 Wildmutt,Upchuck,Ditto

Guardian-Sigil: Well I think you saw this latest chapter and Vilgax is certainly up to something

---

Guest: I just saw a few reviews of chapter 406, and some of them say that there's another reason why All For One wants One For All, it's so he can have his brother back, and apparently All For One accidentally killed his brother in his fight against the Second user of OFA, and according to this chapter, if there's any All For One hates more than All Might, it's the second user of OFA, and it seems to be heavily implied that Bakugo has some relation with the second user, so could this potentially happen in your fanfic too? Where All For One starts having a deep hatred for Bakugo when he recognises the relation he has to the second user?

Guardian-Sigil: Perhaps, I guess we'll see

---

Guest: I know that this is rather late but after binge reading this I had to say something. You are really showing that you have a real passion for these characters and also creativity while staying true to the original source material and also staying true to the characters.

Now here is my review. Everything is coming up Vilgax and he is becoming a monster who will become a powerhouse. Now I loved the way you used Quirks to give Vilgax powers that he received from his weapons in Ultimate Alien Force, I was wondering how you were going to implement those.

Now here is a problem you need to address. You need to bring in more of the bad guys from the original shows. Because I want to see the Forever Knights being massive threats and not just the Negative Nine.

Also here is another problem. I apologize if I'm going to sound frustrated now but I'm really hoping Ochaco and Katsuki get a near complete defeat from Vilgax. And here is a suggestion as to how to make it happen.

Make sure Ochako loses One For All to the hands of Vilgax when Vilgax gets the Omnitrix. Vilgax is not an idiot and as Ochaho uses more of that Quirk with Uravity Vilgax becomes aware of who has that Quirk and then after beating Ochacho Vilgax uses the Power Siphon. This needs to happen for two reasons.

The first reason is to nerf her as she has become to OP and also the former is to give her a real loss cause I feel like Ochaco is getting way too many wins while Izuku gets less and we have lost focus on our main character. But after the Watch is back in Izuku's hands the pressure is on Izuku's shoulder's as the burden of being the hope of the universe is now on his shoulders.

This also opens the floodgates to intergalactic chaos and to add that extra bit of angst to rub in how the good guys screwed up and need to get better because after Vilgax gains All for One he then uses it to conquer the ten worlds Vilgax conquered in Ultimate Alien Force cannon and gain even more political power in the galaxy.

So you have to nerf Ochacho. Now here are my reasons why.

After reading all of this story you made her to strong and you also nerfed the Omnitrix's alien forms taking the focus away on our main character.

It would have been better if Izuku had the power his alien forms had in the original series and then when he got cocky after getting so far ahead of his peers that he took on some of Ben's worst qualities such as his cocky and selfish attitude and then when you introduced Vilgax did Izuku get that taste of humble pie as he must have had his power stripped away from him and he had to prove himself to get it back.

Now speaking of character I just had a crazy Idea. What are your thoughts on one day doing a crossover with League of Legends. Because imagine if Izuku Midoriya was somehow transported to Runeterra with One For All and getting involved with the events of one of the games. That would be rather cool.

I recommend you look at TVTropes and The League of Legends Wiki. But be warned The League of Legends universe is vast as the League of Legends wiki lists 257 short stories alone; between the short stories, comics, Legends of Runeterra, Arcane, the seasonal cinematics, the Tales of Runeterra shorts, Garen: First Shield and Ruination, and of course, the game itself, there's a positively overwhelming amount of content— much of which contributes to plotlines that are as of yet unresolved. It can be hard to get into League of Legends when there's an absolute mountain of content to get through due to the over-160 champions in League, almost all of which have some lore, and some of whom have a lot.

Now here is a list of media that you can use for learning more about the lore of the world of Runeterra. See what you can afford and buy it and look into it.

Guardian-Sigil: I already have plans to introduce the Forever Knights. I mean I did use them on a Halloween OVA last year in the side story "Heroes Never Die; It's Hero Time, Anytime"

Also I'm getting really tired of people telling me to nerf Ochaco. I F*ING GET IT! I am going to fix it just let me do it MY WAY. I never meant it to be this way I just wanted to focus on Izuku and kinda skip over her stuff/struggles for efficiency's sake. Basically I was being lazy so I can do the stuff for Izuku. But in any case this is a dual-protagonist story. Even if it wasn't Ochaco that got OFA who ever did whether it was Mirio, Bakugou, or whomever they would always have been the other main character.

Also she has F*ING LOST. She lost against Charmcaster. Lost her friends to the League of Villains. And she's going up against an army of aliens and drones, how do you think this is gonna play out? So just let me do my thing. And if you have doubts just think of this: this ARC is marking a CHANGE in the story.

So, just sit back, relax, and let me do my thing. PLEASE

Guest: This chapter is so awesome, and the fight is an amazing I can't wait see move this arc. I like to think after this arc all might will become Izuku idol one again and hoping to give back the autograph from all might, it is going be heartwarming moment. Yes, losing the Omnitrix is suck, but it is a great opportunity for Izuku finally using his hoverboard, omni-shield, and the sage gun, it going to be so satisfying to show everybody especially one who look down on him become he's quirkless he can too be a hero without a quirk it going to be so good. I love the arsenl you give Izuku to use other the Omnitrix, will give he make a unique fighting style with the Omnitrix if he unlocks the quick-change feature. Also, I need to say about All for one send to the null void last arc, I have a strong feeling that will backfire horribly in the future, if everybody watches Ben 10 Alien Force episode voided, they know what I am talking about.

Guardian-Sigil: OOOoooooooh you only have a taste of what I have planned for everything you just mentioned

---

Guest: Now I want to know who the stranger was?

Guardian-Sigil: Next time you will have your answer for sure

---

Guest: First review then do a request.

While I love this story there are some major issues with it.

First off Izuku should have his aliens working at the same capacity as in the original shows and here is why.

It would have been better if Izuku had the power his alien forms had in the original series and then when he got cocky after getting so far ahead of his peers that he took on some of Ben's worst qualities such as his cocky and selfish attitude and then when you introduced Vilgax then did Izuku get that taste of humble pie as he must have had his power stripped away from him and then he had to prove himself worthy of it and cleans up his act and then he works with his fellow students in order to get the watch back.

Also Ochacho is to OP. You have repeatedly taken us away from Izuku and his struggles and mostly focused on Ochaco and how easy she has had it.

Now seeing as you are such a good writer what are your thoughts on making a My Hero Academia and Ikkitousen series crossover?

I found this idea online and thought maybe you can do it.

The Toushi and the Hero.

Crossover: My Hero Academia and Ikki Tousen.

Ratings T to M.

Genre: Action/ Romance.

Now seeing as it is the internet here is the ship for the kid. I look forward to the chaos.

Paring's: Izuku Midoriya (My Hero Academia) X Housen Ryofu X Chinkyuu Kodai (Ikki Tousen).

General Summary: Now the main premise of this story is that what if Izuku before meeting All Mightwhile still in Middle School was transferred to Nanyo academy for one year in the Kanto Region of Japan?

This is where he meets some of the Toushi before Hakufu can to town in the Kanto region of Japan. Now here is where things get interesting.

When Izuku realizes the neighborhood he is in has various gangs and he feels like he'll need power and also more than power to battle against dangerous villains and also to survive the various gangs out for blood in the Kanto Region.

So this is where Izuku meets the girl who will be one of his two girlfriends.

Izuku is jogging through some streets until he spotted a lone green haired girl being surrounded by several thugs wanting to do something bad to her, he was about to go in their for help but stop when the girl took them in an instant with one leg which shocks the boy.

Ryofu saw Izuku thinking he's cute and introduces herself as a martial artist though in this story she was also a former hero student until something happened that force her to leave, Izuku ask if she could train him to help with his hero dream and believes her strength is the key. Ryofu decided to humor the boy and begun training him in martial arts with feeling the chi of others and to break through limits, and soon she started to feel something more for Izuku as they continue training together and even go through some tough things against villains and the local toushi gangs.

Then Ryofu decided to confess her love for Izuku with a kiss on the lips and taking one of his hands to touch her breast, this shocks Izuku very much that he fainted and that made Ryofu laugh feeling Izuku is going to be a great boyfriend as the two go on becoming a pair of great heroes together!

However Izuku also has to deal with Ryofu's best friend slash girlfriend. See Ryofu Housen is Bisexual in the anime and manga of cannon Ikkitousen and has a girlfriend Chinkyuu Kodai who in this story also falls for Izuku Midoryia.

This causes Izuku to become a little more resilient to the charms of women.

Eventually Izuku Midoryia goes back to Aldera after his year is up and meets All Might and gains One For All. But Izuku eventually goes down the events of both the canon events of the Manga of Ikkitousen while also shaking things up for the better for the cast of Ikkitousen(such as saving his girlfriend's lives from their cannon fate)and also the events of My Hero Academia.

The difference is though after Izuku gets to see his girlfriends he has to work to stop the constant fighting between the Toushi of Japan while having to deal with super villains as well.

Guardian-Sigil: I'm getting really tired of people telling me to nerf Ochaco. I F*ING GET IT! I am going to fix it just let me do it MY WAY. I never meant it to be this way I just wanted to focus on Izuku and kinda skip over her stuff/struggles for efficiency's sake. Basically I was being lazy so I can do the stuff for Izuku. But in any case this is a dual-protagonist story. Even if it wasn't Ochaco that got OFA who ever did whether it was Mirio, Bakugou, or whomever they would always have been the other main character.

Also she has F*ING LOST. She lost against Charmcaster. Lost her friends to the League of Villains. And she's going up against an army of aliens and drones, how do you think this is gonna play out? So just let me do my thing. And if you have doubts just think of this: this ARC is marking a CHANGE in the story.

Finally, I have no idea what Ikki Tousen is. Also I am not taking requests to start brand new stories when I am so far behind on this single story.

Guest: Another awesome chapter. You really are one of the best authors on this site.

Guardian-Sigil: Thank you. I don't deserve that title but your words mean a lot

---

Guest: Hey will we ever see characters that only appeared in the Omakes make appearances in the main series like Jeff or the Mythrol.

Guardian-Sigil: Perhaps I don't really have any plans for them. Maybe as background characters down the line at most

Marvelfan4life: I hope you bring in Old George and the Forever Knights and also put my challenge in some forums. That would be awesome! He is a textbook fallen hero However, he is a different kind than previous ones. He is not consumed by some kind of dark side like Kevin was. Old George is not motivated by greed or envy like Captain Nemesis.

He is a Hero from a far older time and is one who truly believes he is doing the right thing and actually follows heroic goals and ethics but those goals and ethics are from an older time and he is opposed to our series protagonists. George also is, much like Ben, a guy who got his weapon from Azmuth, and is annoyed by Azmuth wanting to control him. In many way, he is a twisted mirror to Ben.

Do the same thing with Izuku having George as a foil and a mirror to Izuku and what he could become. But to make sure we do not go down the same path one to one let us see how George had fallen from grace as it were unlike in the show. And make that tie into the story with the Dragons so .

I would love to see you tackle parts of the show that were never covered. Such as the Alien Dragons. Check the Ben 10 Wiki and their is something you can use involving Dragons as an example.

For example there are also Mythical Dragons in Ben 10 Classic Continuity living on Earth along with Alien Dragons. Oh and the Mythical Dragons are in the Ben 10 2016 Reboot now as well. Yes I am a Dragon Nerd, and proud of it.

Here is what I could find from their. A sect of Forever Knights would stop at nothing to destroy dragons. Dwayne McDuffie in Alien Force once claimed more of this species would be seen in future episodes, but this did not happen and there were no plans to revisit this species in Omniverse because no one wanted to revisit that arc.

Here are sources from that web-sight. It is called Ben 10 Planet.

File:Dragon Aliens Different From Mythical Dragons.

File:Mythical Dragons Exist.

File:Dragons Excluded in OV.

Here is how I would do it. When the Forever Knights and Old George get involved make them like how they were in the show. A massive organization with different factions each with different goals but the gangs first interaction with the Knights involves the Alien Dragon the Map Maker and bring in the Mystical Dragons and their eggs which the Map Maker is trying to bring to the Alien Dragon's World to keep them self as Earth has become hostile to anything non human.

Please dig into the Dragon Motiff's from across the world for their abilities. Please take a look at how the Western Dragon is depicted across Europe and also Northern, Southern, Central, and East Asian.

Here is the Western Iconography of the Dragon. During the early Middle Ages, European culture was largely out of contact with classical literature for centuries. During this time there was a gradual change in the usual mental image of the "dragon", i.e. the Latin draco and its equivalents in vernacular languages, which occurred in oral and written literature, including in classical literature. This led to the depiction in this literature of "modern-type" dragons, whose features are described below.

The modern western image of a dragon developed in western Europe during the Middle Ages through the combination of the snakelike dragons of classical Graeco-Roman literature, references to Near Eastern European dragons preserved in the Bible, and western European folk traditions including descriptions and drawings of animals named as types of snakes but inaccurately drawn with wings and/or legs. The period between the 11th and 13th centuries represents the height of European interest in dragons as living creatures.

Dragons are usually shown in modern times with a body more like a huge lizard, or a snake with two pairs of lizard-type legs, and breathing fire from their mouths. This traces back to the continental dragon, commonly referred to as a fire-breathing dragon. The continental, like many other European dragons, has bat-like wings growing from its back.

The Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf refers to a dragon as a draca and also as a wyrm (worm, or serpent). Its movements are denoted by the Anglo-Saxon verb bugan, "to bend", and it is said to have a venomous bite, and poisonous breath; all of these indicate a snake-like form and movement rather than with a lizard-like or dinosaur-like body as in later depictions, and no legs or wings are mentioned; however it shows several dragon features that later became popular: it breathed fire, lived underground, and collected treasure.

The oldest recognizable image of a "modern-style" western dragon appears in a hand-painted illustration from the bestiary MS Harley 3244, which was produced in around 1260. This dragon has two sets of wings and its tail is longer than most modern depictions of dragons, but it clearly displays many of the same distinctive features.

Dragons are generally depicted as having an underground lair or cave, or living in rivers. They are envisioned as greedy and gluttonous, with voracious appetites. Dragons are often identified with Satan, due to the references to Satan as a "dragon" in the Book of Revelation.

In Western folklore, dragon-like creatures and dragons in Christian literature are usually portrayed as evil, except mainly in Asturian and Welsh folklore and modern fiction. Y Ddraig Goch is the Welsh name of The Dragon on The National Flag of Wales.

If I were you I would dig into Welsh and British folklore! The oldest recorded use of the dragon to symbolize Wales is in the Historia Brittonum, written around AD 829, but it is popularly supposed to have been the battle standard of King Arthur and other ancient Celtic leaders. Its association with these leaders, along with other evidence from archaeology, literature, and documentary history, led many to suppose that it evolved from an earlier Romano-British national symbol.

In the modern period and late medieval times, the European dragon is typically depicted as a huge fire-breathing, scaly, and horned lizard-like creature, with wings (usually leathery bat-like, sometimes feathered), two or four legs, and a long muscular tail. It is sometimes shown with one or more of a crest, a fiery mane, ivory spikes running down its spine, and various exotic coloration's. Dragon's blood often has magical properties. The typical dragon protects a cavern or castle filled with gold and treasure and is often associated with a great hero who tries to slay it. Though a winged creature, the dragon is generally to be found in its underground lair, a cave that identifies it as an ancient creature of earth.

Also remember to take inspiration from the idea of Dragons in Chinese Culture. But whatever you do make him actually work for his combat skills and master his skills.

The Dragon played an influential and beneficial role in Chinese culture. An amalgam of several creatures, including monitor lizards, pythons and the Chinese alligator, the polymorphic dragon was a water spirit, responsible for bringing the rains and thus ensuring the survival of crops. The dragon was the symbolic guardian to the gods, and was the source of true wisdom. This latter feature most likely resulted from the observation of the living reptilian counterparts which, usually at rest, seem to be in a near constant state of contemplation.

The dragon represented two of the ancient elements, Earth and Water, endowing the creature with powers of illusion and strength. A Yang symbol, the Taoists saw the dragon as a personification of the Tao itself—"the Dragon reveals himself only to vanish". Shaolin Buddhists saw him as a vision of enlightened truth, to be felt, but never to be held. Certain very old men were called dragons, these being well versed in the life-supporting skills of herbal medicine, agriculture, and Kung Fu. In early China, these skills were surely a matter of life or death, and those so educated were held in high regard.

Also seeing as Ryuku has a Dragon Quirk and Izuku needs some self defense training without his Watch why not make Izuku train and go into Dragon Style Martial Arts under her guidance as Ryuku also gets involved in the Dragon Quest(Heh Pun).

Go with both North and South Dragon as Izuku needs them to survive without his watch. And it would be awesome!

Here is what I could find on North Dragon Style Kung Fu.

NORTHERN DRAGON KUNG FU: Students work on a paired striking blocking exercise and practice form techniques.

While there are many martial arts that require acrobatic leaps, dynamic athleticism, or the strength to break boards, bricks, or other inanimate objects, Northern Dragon is not one of those arts. In fact, Northern Dragon teaches students to stay firmly rooted on the ground, and with good reason—being grounded to the earth allows the generation of power from the feet on up. What this means is that as an art firmly rooted in the earth, your main physical concern will be building up the strength and endurance in your legs and core muscles that will allow you to maintain a stance for longer and longer periods of time. That's why its a practice; a discipline. Anyone can do it, given the commitment to the practice.

The dragon represented by Northern Dragon Style Kung fu is not the winged, fire breathing, destructive western dragon familiar to most people; it is the eastern, and more specifically, the Chinese dragon. The Chinese saw the dragon as an incredibly benevolent and life giving creature worthy of reverence. Students mimic this mythical creature's movements. Like the Chinese dragon, Northern Dragon stylists float and sink, circle and twist, and expand and contract in response to attack.

As the embodiment of benevolent, life giving, and revered creatures, a Northern Dragon stylist would never start an attack, and would do everything possible to avoid an encounter. However, if a fight is unavoidable, then an absolute and totally determined effort is applied to overcome a potentially stronger force. Following an attacker's first sign of aggression, a dragon stylist does not hold back, but becomes an instantaneous and non-stop attacking force.

PROGRESS THROUGH THE SYSTEM: Northern Dragon Kung Fu utilizes a standard western grading system of colored sashes denoting rank advancement. The ranks are as follows: Kai Shan (no sash), White, Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue, Purple, Brown, Black.

As students complete levels of the curriculum, they are constantly observed and informally assessed before being formally graded for their next rank. Grading cycles occur every four months.

Following an attacker's first sign of aggression, a dragon stylist does not hold back, but becomes an instantaneous and non-stop attacking force relying on floating and sinking movements with shoulders dropped and elbows bent.

A Dragon stylist defends himself by withdrawing or curving his body inwardly to absorb or neutralize any incoming attack. When the opponent has over-reached in his or her attack, the dragon stylist changes from soft to hard, and combines footwork with blocks as he intercepts his or her opponent.

The Dragon stylist will evade the opponent's attack, simultaneously intercepting and breaking through the defense of your adversary. You will take advantage of the tense side of the opponent's attention, or the lax side of his or her inattentiveness. You will then launch a strike from an unexpected direction and strike an unexpected area.

As one arm strikes forward, the other is readied back. Your arms swing in and out with power generated from the waist. The application of pressure is in the same direction as the attacker's force.

If the opponent moves forward, retreat and move along in the same direction as the attack. If he or she retreats, move forward into their retreating motion, and put the pressure back on again. Counter straight with curved, and curved with straight. Hands follow feet, feet follow hands. When the hands stop the feet follow, when the feet stop, the hands follow. Move left, go right, move right, go left. Up follows down, down follows up. A strike is a block, a block is a strike.

If the opponent's power is too great, the Dragon stylist steps off line, to counter an opponent's open area, and to "bounce" him or her out. The Dragon stylist, keeping the above in mind, uses many large zig — zag stepping movements with the practitioner constantly extending and contracting his or her body.

These concepts may seem hard to understand at first, but they will become more apparent with continued training in the Dragon style. These movements should be done together: up follows down, which could mean first strike up then drop low and strike. They could also be combined with the attacker's movements. For example, if the attacker strikes up, drop low and counter-strike.

As with any history, over a period of time, information is lost or improperly transmitted. Dragon style is no exception. For example, although I have studied Dragon style for many years, I am still learning new things about it. In some instances, I have come across information about the Dragon Style which differs from information that I received earlier. Therefore, all students, even (especially) at the instructors level, are constantly learning or relearning information or techniques in the Dragon System.

Now here is what I could find on Southern Dragon.

The movements of the Southern Dragon style of Shaolin Kung Fu are based on the Chinese dragon. The Dragon style is an imitative-style that was developed based on the characteristics of the Chinese dragon that mixes each of the various animal styles of Shaolin Kung Fu.

Guardian-Sigil: Look I have plans for the Forever Knights. Not sure if I will include George yet but I will not be doing the Dagon Arc at all. He's out.

And finally it's cool you want me to explore things the show didn't. But I honestly have no interest in exploring the dragon aliens. I have one idea for them, just one simple idea, and that's all I'm going to do for them. I'm sorry but this is like the 6th time you or someone else has requested this and it's not gonna happen. Sorry but I want to keep most of this story on EARTH.

Also Izuku will not be going to Ryukyu's agency either

Look I'm sure at some point Ink Tank on youtube will explore the dragon planet and species
