AN: And we are back with another chapter! Thank you all so much for the support on the last chapter, it really means a lot. Also, I'd like to say I don't know a lot about guns, I do a quick google search so if I get something wrong I am sorry. So without further adieu let's just jump into it!

Taking out the Trash

Following the confrontation at the base the heroes decided to regroup. But this time it wasn't just Aizawa and Uraraka, this time it was all of former class 1A.

Meeting inside of UA itself they all sat around talking with each other, waiting for someone to arrive. "It's been a while since we've all met up at the school." Said Kirishima.

"It has," said Mina. "Brings back a lot of memories."

"Some good, some bad, but overall not too bad." Momo said. "So why are we all here?"

"That's what I'm going to explain." Everyone turned to find Uraraka walking into the room. Followed by Aizawa and none other than All Might himself.

After his fight with his archenemies All Might retired. The former number one hero was now old, skinny, and a skeleton of his former self. "Alright I know you're all busy so I'll keep this short and simple." Uraraka then pressed a button on a remote, which dimmed the lights and turned on the projector.

From it Izuku's picture was shown, "Hey that's that guy from the Christmas disaster." Momo pointed out. "You said his name was Midoriya right?"

Uraraka nodded, "Meet Izuku Midoriya. Former Captain of Japan's Special Forces. He was the one responsible for the massacre and destruction of one of Overhaul's facilities." She then clicked the remote again and showed pictures of the massacre.

The heroes flinched as they saw the bodies left behind, "This guy's quirk must be insane if he did all that." Jiro commented.

"That's the thing, he's quirkless." Everyone's eyes widened. "At the age of 4 Captain Midoriya was diagnosed as quirkless. And as you know, our society isn't tailored for those without a quirk. His file says he was bullied, both physically and mentally growing up." Uraraka looked at Bakugo. "This is why he joined the armed forces. There he learned everything and anything about combat. He is a master at detection, stalking, target range estimation methods, camouflage, tracking, bushcraft, field craft, infiltration, special reconnaissance and observation, surveillance, target acquisition, and is a master of any and all firearms. When I first met him he already had a nickname, his squad called him The Reaper. Silent and shows himself when you least expect it. He has been on more search and destroy missions than we have villain encounters combined."

Just then a hand went up, it was Jiro, "Wait I'm confused, why are you telling us all this?"

That's when Aizawa stepped forward, "We have reason to believe that Captain Midoriya is on a revenge tour. His target is anyone remotely responsible for the death of his mother, wife, and unborn child. Unfortunately, that includes you, since you were present at the massacre."

"You mean he'll try and kill us?" Mina asked.

Aizawa nodded, "Yes, there's a possibility. Fortunately it seems like he's only going after villains."

"But even so we need to catch him before he kills again." Demanded Uraraka. "We will be patrolling Overhaul's remaining warehouses."

"Woah woah woah. We have to protect that asshole?" Kamanari asked. "He's a villain. Why don't we just let this Captain deal with him? It'll save us the trouble."

"Because that's not what heroes do." Said All Might. "We have a moral obligation to be better than the villains we fight. What Captain Midoriya is doing is wrong, plain and simple."

"But he has no quirk. How much trouble can he actually be?" Mineta asked, kicking his feet on the desk.

"Make no mistake, you don't need a quirk to be deadly. Captain Midoriya is a master with a sniper rifle and can kill us before we know where it came from. He's also the second most skilled person ever in the Special Forces. First place was his wife." All Might explained. "Take him seriously, if you don't then your life is forfeit."

"His picture is already being distributed to all agencies and police stations. If you see him, do not fight him alone." Aizawa explained. "Wait for backup if you are alone and track him from afar."

The class all nodded, "Good, dismissed." With that everyone got up to leave, all except Uraraka who stayed behind.

Uraraka then looked at the table to see that there was still one person left, Bakugo. "Do you really think he did all that?"

"I saw the video, it was him." Uraraka said. "There's no doubt about it."

Bakugo sighed, "He's nothing like how I remember him."

"Bullying someone does that to people. They are forced to change out of fear or survival. Our society relies on quirks. The suicide rate for quirkless individuals is nearly 60%, and that's only the ones we know about. Your bullying didn't help either."

"I know I messed up, I want to make things right." Said Bakugo getting up. "I should go see him."

"That might be the last thing you should do.' Uraraka warned. "Captain Midoriya is already on a knife's edge. Seeing you might trigger memories from his past. Give him some time."

Bakugo lowered his head, "I said some pretty awful stuff to him."

"I'm sure you're sorry, but right now we need to make sure he doesn't do this again." Uraraka then got an idea. "I'm going back."

"Are you crazy? You just warned me about seeing him. He already told us he doesn't want to see us again. He could end up attacking you." Bakugo warned.

"I'll just have to trust that he won't." With that Uraraka left the room.

Later

Overhaul was pissed off, "How the hell did a fucken nobody kill several of my men, destroy both my factory and my product, just get away like that!?"

"It seems to me like you have a problem." Shigaraki said as he sat at a bar.

"A problem? No, this person isn't a problem, he's a flea, an insect." Overhaul paced back and forth.

"Calm down, do you know who this guy is?" Shigaraki asked.

"No, the heroes took the film and anyone who did see him is dead." Overhaul let out a sigh. "It's fine, it's just one warehouse. I still got plenty. Production will be slower but I'll make up for it."

Just then Overhaul's phone began to ring, "Yeah what is it?" The villain's eyes widened, "When?" "Did anything…" "Fuck…Fuck….Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! I don't care what it takes, you to find this piece of shit and kill him! You hear me, I want his head on a pole!" Overhaul then threw his phone towards the wall.

Shigaraki raised an eyebrow, "Bad news?"

"Another one of my factories is destroyed, no survivors." Explained Overhaul. "Fuck!"

"Seems like you need some help." Shigaraki suggested.

"I don't need your help." Overhaul said, snapping back. "I can deal with my own problems."

Shigaraki got up, "I'm sure you can, but just to make sure. Why not take a few Nomu. They will serve you well."

Overhaul thought it over, "Fine, but I don't need them. I'll be the one to kill whoever is fucken with us."

Elsewhere

Entering an old worn down building Izuku walked towards the back and dropped his vest. It was covered in blood and bullet holes but even so Izuku walked away.

Sitting down on a rusted barrel he let out a sigh, "Another factory down. With two down it should be enough to attract the big man. Time to move onto phase 2. But those heroes, they are tracking me down as well. I'll have to deal with them sooner or later."

Izuku let out a sigh, "I'll deal with them later. Right now I need to rest. Time to head home."

Throwing on a jacket, Izuku walked down the street. Making it into the city he blended in with everyone else. Arriving at his street he noticed something moving along the roofs. 'Two people…long range quirks if I had to guess. They didn't confront me right away so that means they are serving as lookouts. But to whom?'

That question was answered when Izuku arrived home and saw Uraraka waiting at his doorstep, "I thought I told you I never wanted to see you again." Said Izuku looking right at Uraraka. "Yet here you are. Trespassing. You do know I can use force to remove you, right?"

"I know. Look, I just want to talk." But Izuku pushed past her.

"I'm done talking to you." Izuku said unlocking his door. "Next time I see you on my property I will use force."

Izuku was about to go inside when Uraraka called out to him. "I know it's you." Izuku turned. "I know it's you who's killing those people."

Raising an eyebrow, Izuku walked down the steps and stood in front of Uraraka and smirked, "And what if it was?"

"We will stop you and bring you in. This will stop one way or another." Uraraka said, standing her ground.

Izuku let out a small laugh, "No, no you won't. And even if it was me, I won't stop, not until they're all dead. Not until I have Overhaul and anyone even remotely connected to him are dead."

"And what if I try to stop you, here and now?" Uraraka asked. "Will you kill me too?"

Izuku paused for a second, "We can test that if you want?"

The two stared at each other, almost as if daring the other to make a move. "You're still a good person Captain, there's still time to change." Uraraka pleaded.

Sighing, Izuku closed his eyes, "You're still so naive. That's your problem, hero. You see the world as good and evil. Right vs wrong. Was it right for those "people" to kill all those innocents?"

"And who are you to judge someone?" Uraraka asked. "People can change."

"You care too much." Izuku said plainly. "One day you'll have to choose who you care about more. The people that get hurt, or the people who you try to stop."

Izuku then turned, "You have my answer, go ahead and try to stop me. It doesn't matter, one way or another I'll get what I want. Until then, stay out of my way."

Uraraka watched as Izuku walked back up the steps, "You're going to get yourself killed, Captain!"

Izuku was about to close the door when he stopped, turned slightly, and gave a half smile, "That's kind of the point." Uraraka's eyes widened, and with that Izuku shut the door.

Standing there for a few seconds Uraraka turned to leave. Once in the street she met up with Aizawa. "How did it go?"

"He did it, I know he did." She explained. "But he's also hurting. I think he's doing this because he wants to die."

"What do you mean?" Aizawa asked.

"What he's doing isn't just about revenge…he wants to die. He knows this is suicide." Uraraka explained.

Aizawa thought about it, "It makes sense. The most dangerous things on this planet are people who have everything to protect and a person who has nothing to lose."

That worried Uraraka, "There has to be something we can do."

"Evidence is building against him, but until someone actually sees him in action we can't do much." Aizawa explained thinking about what they could do. "Apart from the two already destroyed, where is the nearest Yakuza warehouse?"

"It's about 4 hours from here." That's when it clicked. "You want to stake out the next warehouse."

Aizawa nodded, "Yeah, he's going to hit that one next. If we catch him in the act then we'll be able to bring him in."

"Sounds like a plan. We should also alert the others. He could try and go to another location. Overhaul will be on the lookout for the Captain." With that two went to plan for the next attack on Overhaul.

Next Night

City lights shone on Izuku as he walked down the empty streets. The location of his next target was in an industrial area, mostly everyone had already gone home for the night. The perfect place to go all out. Izuku was atop a roof just across the building, "Nice bright night, no wind, no civilians, this would have been perfect for a sniper. Oh well, guess you can't have everything."

He then walked over to the edge of the building where there was a very large case. Opening it up he looked inside and smiled, "I'll have to thank the guys later, they were really able to get one out." Inside the case was a RPG, an older model since special forces couldn't let out of a new model. Even so, it would be more than enough.

Loading the round Izuku threw the RPG over his shoulder and aimed, "I'll enjoy watching the warehouse burn." Putting his finger on the trigger Izuku was just about to squeeze it when something wrapped itself around the RPG, the weapon was then ripped out of his hands.

Izuku turned, and was met with a kick to his face that sent him flying across the roof of the building. Sliding to a stop Izuku gritted his teeth, "Your anger is clouding your intelligence Captain."

Getting to his feet Izuku dusted himself off, "Or maybe I knew you'd come."

Stepping out of the darkness was Uraraka, "It's over Captain." the hero said with a disappointed look on her face. "You're coming with me."

"And if I say no?" Izuku asked as he reached behind his back. But that's when something wrapped around his wrists, pinning his hands together.

"It wasn't a request." Aizawa said, landing beside Uraraka and holding his capture weapon. Izuku tried to break free but the bonds were too strong. "You won't be able to break out. They have carbon fibers weaved into the fabric."

"Please Captain, let us help you." Uraraka pleaded. "We'll check you into a hospital where you'll get mentally evaluated. From there you'll be transferred to jail where you'll await a hearing."

Izuku hung his head, "C-Can you actually help me?"

Uraraka nodded, "Of course. It's what we heroes do."

Looking up, Izuku nodded, "Okay…"

Uraraka then walked over to Izuku and smiled, "Come on, let's get you the help you need."

But as she approached Izuku suddenly smiled, "Oh I got all the help I need right here." With a quick strong pull, Izuku managed to force Aizawa towards him.

Aizawa crashed into Uraraka causing her to step closer to Izuku. That's when he headbutted her underneath the chin.

Staggered Uraraka fell back, giving Izuku the perfect opportunity to get at Aizawa. Unfortunately he was still tied up, no problem. Dislocating his own wrists, Izuku loosened the capture weapon. Once free he popped his wrists back into place and grabbed Aizawa by the head and kneed him in the face, breaking his nose in the process.

As Aizawa's body slumped to the ground Izuku was kicked from behind. Hitting the railing he hunched over the ledge of the building. "You tricked me!" Uraraka said as she posed in a fighting stance.

Izuku recovered, "Yeah, and you bought it. Some hero you are."

Rushing at each other, the two engaged in hand to hand combat. They blocked with their forearms, kicked, and dodged. To the untrained eye it seems as if they were evenly matched, but that was far from the truth.

Mid-fight Uraraka could tell she was going to lose, why? Because it seemed that they were equals, Izuku should be mopping the floor with her. 'He's going easy on me!? Doesn't matter, if I can touch him this fight is over.'

Switching her attacks, Uraraka now went for open palm strikes and grabs. Noticing the changes Izuku acted accordingly, once she went in for a grab he ducked down and swiped her legs.

Uraraka's back hit the ground hard, she laid there for a second before Izuku grabbed her arm and put her in a straight arm lock.

Feeling her arm being pulled, Uraraka yelled out in pain, "I warned you, you should have left me alone. Now I'll make sure you can't come after me for a while."

Hearing the bones in her arm begin to crack, Uraraka needed to do something before he broke her arm. Reaching out with her free arm she felt around blindly, finally able to feel something she grabbed it and without thinking threw it at Izuku.

The thing she grabbed was an old metal pipe. The pipe hit Izuku in the head causing him to let her go. Both jumped back, but as Uraraka looked up she saw a muzzle flash, then pain coming from her shoulder.

She looked over and saw blood running down a bullet hole. Izuku had shot her. "Next one goes through your head." He warned.

Uraraka fell to her knees as she applied pressure on her injury. In pain she groaned, "F-Fuck that hurts…"

"I warned you, didn't I? I warned you to stay away, to leave me alone." Izuku then re-holstered his weapon and walked to the side of the building where the RPG had been tossed.

Lifting it with one arm he slung it over his shoulder and aimed. "For Rin."

He squeezed the trigger much to Uraraka's horror. But the projectile only went a few meters away before it was suddenly grabbed out of the air. Izuku watched as a Nomu appeared out of nowhere, "What the hell is that?" He asked as the monster squeezed his hand causing the projectile to explode.

The Nomu's entire body was engulfed in flames for a split second. With its body still on fire it jumped onto the roof. It landed causing the entire building to shake. Izuku quickly dropped the RPG and pulled out his side arm. He fired 5 shots right at the monster's head but the bullets just bounced off. "Captain, you have to run!" Uraraka warned. "That's a Nomu, you can't win against it!"

But Izuku refused to back down, pulling out his knife he readied himself. "If this thing is working for Overhaul then it'll die too!"

He then ran towards the beast, knife at the ready. Leaping forward he plunged the knife towards the Nomu's chest, only to have it shatter on impact. Now holding the hilt of the blade Izuku looked up to see the Nomu smiling. "Oh fuck…"

The Nomu brought down his fist but Izuku reacted fast enough and jumped back. The monster's fist hit the roof causing a partial collapse.

'That thing is not only strong, but it's fast too. I'll need to be….' But as Izuku was thinking about what to do he suddenly felt something grab his leg.

The Nomu roared as it slammed the captain back onto the roof. Izuku screamed out in pain as his bones cracked from hitting the cement. "Captain!" Uraraka yelled as she watched everything go down. Even with one good arm she needed to do something.

The Nomu raised Izuku over its head before throwing him across the roof. Holding his ribs he had a bit of blood running down his lip, "Fuck, Uraraka was right. I can't fight this thing." He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a switch. "Hey Uraraka!" He yelled. "I suggest you leave this roof. And grab your friend!" He then flicked the switch open causing several power up sounds to be heard from the roof.

Uraraka looked around and noticed several packages of explosives lining the roof of the building blinking, "Oh shit."

Quickly getting up Uraraka ran over and managed to touch Aizawa causing him to float, making him easier to carry.

Running to the edge she used her quirk on herself and jumped off the building. Izuku also ran to the edge of the roof and jumped, but as he was in mid air he turned and flicked the switch.

The lights then turned solid, a few seconds later the entire roof was engulfed in flames. The roof collapsed causing the entire 4 story building to come crashing down along with the Nomu.

But for Izuku it wasn't over, the explosion had pushed him towards the wall of the adjacent building. He needed to slow his fall, thinking fast he pulled out his back up knife and stabbed the wall.

It wouldn't stop him, but it would slow him down just enough that it wouldn't kill him. With sparks coming from his knife Izuku slid down and landed hard on the ground.

Groaning in pain he held his shoulder, "Fuck, okay, that hurt." Walking out to the main street Izuku looked back at the building he was on and noticed it was gone. Only a pile of rubble was left in its place. "What the hell was that thing?" He asked himself. "Uraraka said it was a Nomu…I've heard of it before but from where?"

As Izuku pondered that question the pile of rubble began to shift. Izuku flinched, "No way." From the pile a hand suddenly shot up, its flesh burned and its skin missing chunks of it. But much to Izuku's surprise it began to regenerate. "Another day. I can't deal with him now." He turned to leave, but just as he took a step a voice called out to him.

"Captain!" Izuku turned to find Uraraka. "You can't run forever."

"I won't." Izuku responded. "Next time you won't see me coming." Limping away, Izuku disappeared into the darkness of night. Leaving Uraraka to deal with the Nomu that was already practically out.

Fortunately she wouldn't have to deal with it alone. An explosion erupted right in front of its face, "Die!" Bakugo yelled out arriving on scene.

"Ochaco, we got here as fast as we could." Momo said running up to Uraraka.

"Good, focus on taking that Nomu down." Uraraka ordered. "Careful it heals."

The three of them then took on the Nomu, it was difficult at first but soon more of her hero friends arrived and with their efforts they managed to take it down.

"That was harder than I thought." Jiro said as she kicked the Nomu's body. "Why is there a Nomu here anyway?"

Uraraka pointed to the building across from them, "Because of that place. It's the Yakuza stronghold. It was Captain Midoriya's next target before Aizawa and I stopped him."

"The killer is here?" Kamanari asked.

"He's long gone by now." Bakugo answered. "Damn it."

"Hey at least he didn't kill everyone this time." Kirishima said as he walked towards the warehouse. "He's hurt right? We should check out any and all medical facilities."

"He won't go anywhere like that." Uraraka said. "Now that he knows we're after him he'll go to the only place he feels safe."

"And where is that?" Bakugo asked.

She turned to the others, "Home."

1 hour later

A loud explosion blew down the door to Izuku's home. Smoke filled the air as several people rushed inside. They searched the entire house and found that no one was home. "The house is empty." Kirishima mentioned as everyone met in the living room. "Anything Jiro?"

Plugging her jacks into the wall Jiro began to listen, "I'm not picking anything up."

"We must have just missed him." Todoroki said. "But how did he beat us here?"

Uraraka looked around and noticed that nothing was out of place, his pictures were still there. "He must have gone somewhere eles."

"Where else could he go? The military base?" Questioned Mina.

Uraraka shook her head, "Too far for the injuries he has." That's when it clicked. "Either he has another place or someone is helping him."

"Or both." Said Bakugo. "But who else does he know outside the military base?"

Before anyone could answer that question Jiro suddenly picked something up. "Beeping? What the? Are those…" her eyes widened. "Everyone out of the house! Now!"

The class didn't even hesitate, they all escaped the house, and got as far away as they could. But as they were only a few meters away the beeping stopped. A split second later a massive explosion ripped through the entire house sending pieces of debris flying in every direction.

The heroes hit the floor as the debris flew over them. Once it was settled they all stood up, they turned to find the rest of Izuku's home on fire. "A Yakuza hit?" Bakugo questioned.

"Maybe," answered Uraraka. "Or maybe…"

"I wouldn't think about it too much if I were you." Said Izuku's voice through the hero's earpiece. "You won't find me, not anymore."

"Captain?" Uraraka asked in disbelief. "How did…Why? Why the house?"

"Because it wasn't a home. Not anymore." Izuku explained wincing in pain. "Not without her."

"You sound like you're in pain Captain." Uraraka said trying a different approach. "We can get you the help you need. Just tell us where you are and we'll get you medical attention."

Izuku let out a small laugh, "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Sorry I have to go now. I need to find Overhaul."

"We won't let you." Uraraka said. "We'll stop you."

"You've talked to Overhaul once right? Can you deliver a message for me? Tell him that I'll see him soon." Izuku sighed. "Please Uraraka, don't come looking for me. You should also get that shoulder looked at, it looks like you're bleeding again."

With that Uraraka heard nothing but static, she quickly looked around, "He was looking right at us."

An officer suddenly came up running towards the group of heroes, "Uravity we have a situation. The warehouse, it's been destroyed."

Uraraka's eyes widened, "What? How? I thought you had that place locked down."

The officer nodded, "We did, but before anyone could go inside it exploded."

Clenching her fist Uraraka was angry, "Inform the others that Captain Midoriya is now a level A threat."

Bakugo's eyes widened, "Are you sure about that? That means we can go after him with lethal force."

Uraraka nodded, "Yes, he's made it clear that he's willing to hurt us to get what he wants. I would much rather capture him alive but it looks like he won't give us a choice."

Warehouse

Opening the sliding doors to a warehouse Izuku limped his way inside, leaving a trail of blood as he did. Shutting it behind him he made his way towards the desk, barely able to make it. Izuku supported himself on the table. "That thing…it almost killed me."

"Don't beat yourself over it." said a voice from the shadow of the warehouse.

Quickly Izuku pulled out a gun and aimed towards the voice, "Hey easy, it's me."

Recognizing the voice Izuku lowered the weapon, "Right I forgot. Just patch me up."

Stepping out of the shadow was a woman with long blond hair, blue eyes, and who wore glasses, she also had a medical bag. "You do know I'm a scientist by trade right? I work on machines, not human bodies."

Izuku laughed, "I know, and you're risking a lot just talking to me. But I appreciate it nonetheless."

The woman smiled, "Sit and shirt." Izuku obeyed, he sat down and removed his shirt revealing the bruises and cuts. "You remind me of Rin. She used to have bruises from the fights she had on the school playground."

"I guess that's why we were meant for each other." Izuku said, wincing in pain. "Thank you Melissa, really."

Melissa waved him off, "Anything for my little brother in law."

"Still calling me that huh." Sadness washed over Izuku's face as Melissa said that, "I-I'm sorry…"

Melissa continued her work, "I already told you not to apologize. What happened to Rin, it wasn't your fault. She may not have been my real sister but we grew up together. I got where I am today because of her, and you." Izuku said nothing as he looked away in shame. Melissa then pulled out a portable X-ray machine. "You have a few broken ribs and bruised organs. That Nomu really did a number on you. Here, take this." She then handed Izuku a pill.

"Rin always hated these." Izuku said as he reluctantly took the pill.

"Yeah well they're only meant for special forces and some select heroes. It's meant to help you heal faster, not taste good." Melissa explained as she finished wrapping Izuku in some bandages. "I would recommend not moving for a few days but we both know you'll ignore that."

Izuku nodded as he stood up, "Yeah I have stuff to do."

"Thought as much." Melissa smiled. "Just try not to die Izuku."

"I'll try my very best." Said Izuku. "But without her here is life really worth it?"

Melissa then hugged Izuku, "Of course it is. Rin would want you to live. And so do I. If you want I can give you some of my inventions and…"

But that's when Izuku cut her off, "No, I won't drag you into this. If the heroes find out you even met me it could mean the downfall of everything you've built, I won't risk that. You've worked too hard for me to come along and screw it up. Besides, my old squad is enough."

Melissa then broke the hug, "Alright, just be careful. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this again but I'll try."

Izuku nodded, "I appreciate it. Now go. This is something I need to do alone."

With that Melissa grabbed her stuff and turned to leave. "Give them hell Izuku, for Rin."

Now alone Izuku had some time to think, "I need more information about those Nomus, I heard about them on the news but all they say is that they are monsters." He reached onto the desk and pulled out a cellphone. "General, I need information."

AN: DUN DUN DUN! With nowhere to call home Izuku is now solely focused on revenge. But the Nomus could and will pose a threat. How will he respond? Find out next time!
