In the other side of town, Ryukyu was still engaged in battle against Rikiya, the villain trying his hardest to drain her power.
"You're really getting on my nerves!" Rikiya said, still trying to find off Ryukyu. "Why don't you fall already!?"
"I have more than enough reserved energy to fight you!" Ryukyu punched Riyakai and began charging the two heading through town.
Emerging from the building were Laura and Tamaki, the two curious by what was going on.
"Whoa, seems like a big fight," Laura said. "Let's go Tamaki."
"Yeah, sure," Tamaki said, following the girl.
Meanwhile, up high in Capsule Corp, Cyborg had begun his attack, going straight for Bison. "This is where it ends for you!"
Bison blocked the strike, though the man did stumble a bit due to his prior injuries, "You Titans are quite the nuisance today!" Bison kicked Cyborg back, the man blasting him as he fell backward.
"Now's our chance!" Boom was about to attack Cyborg but Leon shot at her feet, the man keeping his gun aimed, "I wouldn't make any sudden movements if I were you."
"Oh please, you're outnumbered," Twice said, going in to attack. "Meanwhile-"
Leon did a quick spin kick to his stomach and then a roundhouse to his head, knocking the villain down.
As Boom went to attack Leon, Cyborg rushed in and punched her through a door, following in pursuit.
"Tabbby!" Toga went to help but Leon intercepted and elbowed her away.
Toga brought out her knife and went for a swipe but Leon blocked with a knife of his own and went for a quick kick that Toga backstepped.
She lunged in with her knife, but Leon managed to parry her strike. She turned to swing again but Leon ducked, trying to cut her stomach, but Toga backed away, running in for one more strike that the agent blocked.
"This isn't my first time fighting someone using only knives, but you're giving me quite the challenge so far, better than an old partner of mine," Leon said, keeping his knife out.
"Partner? Must be an interesting partner if you two fought with knives," Toga said, trying to swipe at Leon, the man backstepping. He went in for a strike that Toga was barely able to block.
"We were partners, until he betrayed me," Leon said, he and Toga breaking away. "He became obsessed with power, which was granted to him by Albert Wesker."
"Must have been a poor power boost if you could match him," Toga said, trying for a lunge, with Leon kicking her knife away and aiming his at Toga's throat.
"I wasn't easy, but sometimes all the power you need already resides inside you," Leon said, reeling his knife back and kicking Toga to the ground, placing his knife away and aiming his gun. "Something people like you and The Hassaikai don't seem to understand."
"Don't you ever compare me or any of my friends to the Hassaikai," Toga pulled out a throwing knife and flung it at Leon, the man dodging by tilting his head as Toga sent one of her needles at Leon, the man grabbing it before it made contact.
"Struck a nerve, did I?" Leon asked. "Your boss, All for One, he steals power and gives it to others, uses it to create Nomu. To me, he's just as bad as places like Umbrella who create these bio-organic weapons to terrorize innocent people."
"Innocent People? You actually believe those exist?" Toga asked, standing back up. "Those innocent people you claim to protect are nothing but selfish creatures who look down on the likes of us, so who the hell are you to call us 'bad' when the true evil is in the public you claim to protect!"
"Don't give me that, whatever bad life you had is no excuse to become a terrorist," Leon scolded. "I'm not letting you or your Hassaikai buddies destroy the world over your fragile egos!"
"Fragile this!" Twice knocked Leon, the man dropping his gun. Leon quickly rolled back up and jammed his knife into Twice's leg.
"Good shot!" Twice said, reeling back in pain. "Dirty move!"
Leon stood back up, then heard the cock of a gun, seeing that Toga had picked his weapon up and aimed it.
"Normally I don't care to use a gun, but I guess if I aim right, I can spill a whole mess of your blood," Toga threatened.
"That won't be happening today," came Nightwing's voice. Toga turned and fired but the former Robin easily ducked and kicked her back. He then used his batons to whack Twice in the stomach a couple of times, then connected the two pieces together to jam into him, creating an electric shock.
"Jin!" Toga regained her composure and aimed the gun at Nightwing, but he quickly knocked it away and back toward Leon, the former cop picking it up and aiming it at Toga.
"Don't move, you and your pal there are under arrest," Leon said. "Give me a reason, and it'll be your blood that ends up spilling."
"Do what he says," Cyborg warned, the man walking over with his cannon aimed while dragging an unconscious Tabitha with him.
"Wow, even a so-called hero is threatening me, that's why I hate all of you," Toga said. "So much for 'heroes don't kill'."
"Yeah sorry to tell you kid, but the whole 'Heroes don't kill' things is overblown," Cyborg said. "Don't get me wrong, we prefer not to take a life, but we will if you leave us no choice."
"Not every hero holds back like Nightwing and his old mentor, Batman," Leon said. "The only other hero with that no killing rule is Spider-Man."
"Of course, there are some things worse than death," Nightwing warned, holding is electric staff to Toga's face. "It'd be a shame if someone like you lost her eyesight. You'd live, but is that much of a life?"
"Whoa, that's dark," Leon commented. "Quite the loophole you found though."
"You know, Spider-Man was nicer when talking to me," Toga said.
"Well he's a sucker for a pretty girl, even nutjobs like you," Cyborg said.
"I doubt even Spider-Man would overlook the atrocities that've committed with your gangster buddies," Leon said.
"Please, I'm no fool," Toga said. "After all, he's just another one of those 'pro' heroes."
As Bison pulled himself up, he saw Toga's predicament. Rather than assist her, he opted to sneak away, this not going unnoticed by the girl.
"Figured he'd run off on us. No matter, I'll personally cut his throat open later," Toga noted to herself.
As Bison tried to leave, he bumped into an angry Videl. "Hey, what's up asshole?"
"YOU!" Bison took a strong punch that sent him flying, Videl opting to go after him.
"This is for hurting my daughter!" Videl shouted, unloading more strikes upon Bison.
This did distract the three men interrogating Toga, which she used to her advantage by knocking Leon's gun away and kicking Nightwing back in the spur of the moment.
Cyborg went to grab her but was distracted when Twice tried tackling him to the floor, though the Teen Titan founder wouldn't fall so easily.
"Gonna have to do better than that, punk," Cyborg elbowed Twice's back, then picked him up to aim his cannon. "Give me one good reason I shouldn't blast you to hell right now!"
"Here's four!" a now awake Boom shouted, throwing four explosion balls to knock Cyborg away.
"Run!" Toga said, the three League members making their escape.
"After them!" Leon said, grabbing his gun as he, Nightwing and Cyborg gave chase.
"What's the plan now?" Twice asked.
"Might be a good idea to bail," Boom said, gesturing to the exit.
"Not yet, we still need that little girl," Toga said. "Jin, remember what we discussed?"
"Oh yeah! Just give me a sec!" Twice said, quickly making use of his quirk.
Toga looked back to see who was giving chase, "Make plenty of doubles, we're gonna need the distraction."
"You got it!" Twice said, generating copies of Rappa, Spinner and Toad. "Clones! Attack!"
"You could say 'please'," Clone Toad said as he went to join his allies in their distraction.
"Twice is using his quirk!" Leon placed his handgun away and pulled out a TMP Sub Machine gun to open fire while Cyborg and Nightwing attacked with lasers and birdarangs respectively.
As this was going down, Peter was standing face to face with Overhaul, the spider hero glaring a hole through the man. He looked around to see that a lot of his friends got hurt, and even came across the destroyed body of Wolverine.
"Shit...he got Logan! He also hurt Fluttershy and Garfield, and it looks like he did a number on Mirio. Jill and the others took some hits too, but they're tough, so they'll be alright. Izuku got some bad hits, and Mayday's hurt too, I'll be sure to really make him hurt for that one," Peter also spotted a certain little girl nearby. "Eri! She's way too close to the fight! Someone's gotta get her out of here!"
"You look distracted, are we going to fight or just stand around?" Overhaul asked.
"Everyone, keep your distance!" Peter called. "I can fight Overhaul myself!"
"Let me help!" Izuku said.
"Izuku, you need to grab Eri and leave!" Peter said. "Leave Overhaul to me right now!"
"He's too strong!" Izuku said. "He's too dangerous for you to fight!"
"I know he's strong and dangerous, that's why I don't want you fighting him!" Peter said.
"Come on Peyer, let me help you with the fight!" Izuku insisted.
"Don't argue this with me!" Peter demanded.
"You really should take what he's saying very seriously. You're not that strong Spider-Man, you can be defeated" Overhaul taunted. "I haven't forgotten how badly All for One demolished you."
"Neither have I," Peter said, getting in a battle stance. "That's why I won't let that happen again!"
Peter leapt in to attack, landing a powerful blow on Overhaul, then reeled back to deliver even more aggressive strikes.
"Daddy! Be careful! He seems to regenerate any time he takes a lot of damage!" Mayday warned.
"A regenerative power?" Peter asked, glaring at Overhaul with a wicked grin. "Good to know, now I really don't need to hold back!"
As Overhaul went to strike, Peter dodged to the side and rushed in with more blows, hitting hard than before, the sound of his blows echoing through the remains of Capsule Corp as Peter unleashed a flurry of rage.
"This is for EVERYTHING you did to Eri!" Peter punched Overhaul hard enough in the face that audible cracking and crunch noises could be heard. "And all the terrible things you've done because of that!"
"Everything I did..." Overhaul sent a spike at Peter, which he narrowly dodged. "Was for a greater purpose! People like you just can't understand genius when it's standing right in front of you!"
"What kind of genius takes advantage of a child like that!?" Peter punched Overhaul through several of his pillars, the hero following after him. "All those times you tortured her! Those times you've been cutting her open! Breaking her apart and putting her back together!"
"All for the greater good!" Overhaul sent a spike through Peter's shoulder, the hero too blinded by rage to care.
"THERE WAS NOTHING GREAT ABOUT IT!" Peter hit a massive blow to Overhaul's face, sending him flying once again toward the remains of a wall, Peter leaping up and webbing down to kick the man through. "After today, she never has to worry about you ever again!"
"Don't be so sure," Overhaul said, pulling himself up. "I will kill you and take her back Spider-Man, then I'm going right back to my experimenting. Only this time, she won't have you to save her, no matter how much she cries out in pain. All your promises will do nothing but break her will as she realizes the terrible blight on humanity she is!"
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" Peter punched Overhaul hard in the stomach, breaking several ribs. Peter wasn't done of course, he believed this man really needed to hurt. "Nothing Eri has done was worth what you did to her!"
"You really think so?" Overhaul asked. "I don't know what you've heard, but you might as well hear it straight from my mouth. Eri is not my daughter."
"Yeah, I'm fully aware of that," Peter said. "I'd hate you even more if you two were related."
"You wanna know what happened to her parents?" Overhaul asked. "How her mom left in fear because of the monster her daughter turned out to be? A daughter that killed her father using her dangerous powers?"
Peter grumbled in frustration, recalling what Eri had told him days prior. "She mentioned that she touched him and he just disappeared. She mentioned that her mother abandoned her. That adds to the whole 'she's cursed' line. Still..." Peter focused on Overhaul. "What she did was an accident."
"Oh wow, she actually admitted it then? Weird thing for her to brag about," Overhaul said, glaring at Eri. "Are you proud of what you did to your father? Was it really an accident? Or did you just not like him because he made you eat your vegetables or something?"
Peter punched Overhaul hard enough in the face to completely dislodge his jaw, the Hassaikai member quick to put it back together.
"That's enough out of you!" Peter shouted, fury flaring up in his eyes. "What kind of monster talks like that to a child!?"
"That child is the real monster! I'm the only one who can keep her tame!" Overhaul sent more spikes at Peter, the hero quickly dodging and rushing in to attack, unloading an impressive fury.
Peter's punches caused massive damage to Overhaul, breaking his arms, legs, ribs. Everyone watching could not believe Peter's fury. He was not holding back with his blows.
"I will make you regret everything!" Peter emphasized with a powerful punch to Overhaul's face, breaking his skull. "All the terrible things!" Peter hit an uppercut that damaged his teeth. "You will suffer for it all!"
Overhaul impaled Peter with some of the floor, then formed a large fist that punched the hero away, "What a loud mouth you are."
Izuku grumbled in frustration, "That bastard. If I could only get a hit in! Maybe when I see an opening!"
Vega was hiding nearby, Eri locked firmly in his sights, "There you are..." As he rushed in to grab her, Mayday was quick to leap in front of his path. "Hold it!"
"Ugh, it's you," Vega said. "Out of my way!"
"Oh sure, I'll just move out the way because you told me to," Mayday sarcastically commented. "NOT!"
Mayday was quick to kick Vega in the chest, knocking him against a pillar. Unknown to her, this interaction was noticed by the League of Villains, they too prepared to make their move.
"Looks like Vega's struggling, can't let those heroes spot us," Boom said.
"Looks like he went after the kid that the yakuza is very keen on protecting. Apparently that girl is like a secret weapon of theirs," Twice said.
"A kid?" Compress's clone asked.
"Wesker wants her too, and I wouldn't be surprised if Bison's plotting to snatch her away," Boom said.
"So all you have to do is go in there and grab her Compress," Twice said.
"Me?" Compress's clone asked. "Why me?"
"Why are you so worried?" Toga asked.
"Chisaki took my arm, I don't want him to finish the job!" Compress's clone said.
"You're just a clone, you'll be fine," Twice said.
"Now get in there," Toga said, kicking Compress's clone into battle.
"How rude!" Compress's clone said as he reluctantly went into battle. "Never have I met such a selfish bunch!"
From the distance, Amy spotted some trouble, "Looks like Vega's here. I also see some guy in a Top Hat."
"Top Hat? That might be Mr. Compress," Johnny said. "A member of Shigaraki's League of Villains."
"Did someone say the League of Villains?" Twilight asked, running over with Ochako, Tsuyu and Momo.
"Twi, you're alright, awesome," Johnny said.
"Just barely," Twilight said, taking note of the mess. "What happened!?"
"Chisaki's totally wrecked this place, half of our team went to escort civilians away but most of us are still here," Johnny said.
"I'm glad they're safe, but to my knowledge, didn't Doctor Brief and his wife have a lot of pets too?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on with that," Johnny said. "Still, we gotta keep The League away."
"I only see one, and I doubt he's alone," Twilight said. "We did run into members of The Brotherhood, they might be around still."
"I can scout," Momo said.
"We'll cover you and the girls, try to get the injured out of there, but prioritize Eri," Johnny said.
"Of course," Momo ran ahead as Johnny took to the air.
Peter went after Overhaul again, but took a whack that knocked him near a pillar. "I'm done with you!"
"CHISAKI!" Izuku leapt to attack, but he got knocked back as well, the hero landing not too far away from the girls.
"Deku?" Ochako said in worry.
"Uravity, Twilight, look!" Tsuyu called, gesturing to an injured hero.
"Nighteye!?" Ochako shouted in worry.
"Oh no, that injury looks like it could be fatal," a worried Twilight commented.
"Fatal!?" Ochako asked.
"Froopy! Uravity! Watch over him!" Izuku ordered as he ran in to help.
"Izuku! You should be helping them!" Peter ordered. "I told you I can handle Chisaki!"
"You can't do it alone!" Izuku shouted.
"That's not for you to decide!" Peter scolded.
"You stupid heroes screwed everything up!" Chisaki shouted, destroying the building further and sending everyone flying with his pillars, including Eri.
"ERI!" Mayday shouted in worry.
"No!" Vega shouted, not wanting his plan to fail.
"I'll save her!" Came the voice of Flurry as flew in on her magical wings to catch the girl. "I got you!"
"Flurry!?" Mayday shouted in surprise. "Whoa! Perfect timing, cuz!"
"Oh great, it's the Crystal Princess," Boom commented.
"And it would appear that she's not alone," Twice said, gesturing to an oncoming Nejire.
"Flurry, looks like you made it in time," Nejire said. "Oh, and you saved that little girl."
"Barely," Flurry said.
"Unhand her!" Chisaki sent several pillars, clipping through Flurry's magical wings and knocking her off balance, nearly causing her to drop Eri.
"That's enough!" Izuku rushed in to kick Overhaul, keeping him distracted long enough for Flurry to land, keeping Eri safe.
"Are you hurt?" Eri asked.
Flurry shook her head, "I'm fine, my wing will heal."
"You!" Vega made a dash for Flurry. "Hand over the child, now!"
"Flurry, I got this!" Nejire said, charging up her power. "Take this!"
A surge of lightning flew down and blasted Vega back, sending the ninja flying.
"Nice work, Nejire-chan!" Flurry said.
Nejire Hado, her quirk, Surge. She converts her own energy into shootable shockwaves. Due to it's spiral path, it is not a fast projectile however.
"How's the girl?" Nejire asked.
"She's fine," Flurry said. "She just needs-"
"Behind you!" Nejire called, sending a blast at an oncoming Compress clone.
"Gah!" the Compress clone barely dodged the attack. "That seemed a bit excessive!"
"You're the magic guy from the camp, the one who fit Katsuki in that tiny marble!" Flurry said, standing in front of the girl as she charged her magic. "If you think you're going to take Eri from me, you're sadly mistaken!"
"Wait, let's talk!" Compress's clone pleaded.
"Crystal Love!" Flurry blasted the clone, reducing him to mud, much to the girl's worry. "Uh...did I kil him? Wait, mud? That sounds familiar."
"I get the feeling this was a fake," Nejire said.
"I'm not done with you!" Vega angrily marched over, though limping a bit.
"Wow this guy is persistent," Flurry said.
As Vega readied for a fight, he found himself needing to dodge an attack from Overhaul, the gang leader glaring down at the Shadoloo member.
"Another one of Bison's boys, I'll be sure to finish you off!" Overhaul impaled Vega through his right shoulder, then through his left leg.
"Bastard! Just you wait!" Vega threatened.
"You know, maybe I won't kill you just yet," Overhaul held his hand out. "Maybe I'll just leave you without that face of yours that you value so much."
"You wouldn't dare!" Vega shouted, struggling to leave. "To erase my good looks, it is deplorable! Unspeakable!"
"Seems alright to me," Overhaul said, reaching closer.
Vega wasn't going down without a fight, he used his free hand to dig his natural claws into Overhaul's head, squeezing to get the blood out of his foe. "You really have a death with, don't you Kai Chisaki!?"
"IT'S OVERHAUL!" The gang leader grabbed Vega's hand, ready to destroy his arm when the ninja managed to get a kick to his side, then leapt back to free himself, though was heavily injured from having been impaled.
"I'm bleeding a lot, if I'm not careful, I could die," Vega stumbled back as Chisaki marched closer.
"New plan, I'll break you apart piece by piece until there's nothing left!" Overhaul said.
Nearby Cammy seemed concerned about the situation, "What should we do?"
"We could just let Chisaki kill Vega, but I get the feeling that would be low of us," Guile said.
"It would, we just need to find the right moment," Cammy said. "Otherwise we all risk serious or even fatal injuries."
Meanwhile Izuku stood back up, seeing the situation unfolding in front of him, "Chisaki's distracted, looks like he's aiming to kill one of Bison's men. I could use this chance to take both of them down."
The boy dashed in and kicked Chisaki away from Vega, though he in turn took a bad blow from some more pillars, the boy slammed against a wall and breaking a few ribs.
"Dammit! I can't stop now though!" Izuku tried mustering the strength to fight.
"One way or another, all of you are dying today!" Overhaul sent more pillars out, obstructing the heroes, keeping them away from one other.
"Crap, not good," Guile said, keeping his guard up.
"He's trying to divide us!" Chris said, preparing himself for anything.
While Eri was distracted, she was then grabbed by the back of her shirt by Twice, "AAAHHH!"
Peter immediately stood up, glancing in the girl's direction, "Eri!?"
Twice awkwardly stood around a second, "Uh…you're imagining it!"
The look of embarrassment on the faces of Toga and Boom were not to be taken lightly. Even Peter couldn't believe this, neither could anyone in earshot.
"What a dumbass…" Mayday lamented.
Peter glared a hole through twice as he cracked his knuckles, "You have about two seconds to put her down!"
"Quick, run!" Toga ordered, Twice complying.
"Let her go!" Nejire attempted to apprehend Twice but Boom blasted her back with her fireballs.
"Eri!" Flurry went to intercept but Toga stood in her path.
"Back off, girly. She's coming with us!" Toga swung her knife at Flurry, but the girl was quick to duck and punch Toga in the stomach. "Oof!"
"I haven't forgotten what you did to Ochako in the forest," Flurry said, kicking Toga back. "I'm not letting you take Eri and potentially letting her turn out into becoming someone like you!"
"Wow, you're judgmental, I suppose anyone with a pretty face has a superiority complex, just like Vega," Toga said, recomposing herself and aiming her knife. "You're a pretty girl, I'd hate to cut that face of yours, but I will do it if you give me reason to."
"And I'll fight you if I have to, so I can save my friends," Flurry said, focusing her attention on Twice. "And my family!"
She blasted the villain in the face, the action not only causing him to lose his grip on Eri, but also damaged his mask and caused him to freak out. "No! Don't look at me! Don't look!"
"Hey! Get a hold of yourself!" Boom said.
"I'll fix it in a moment, Jin!" Toga said, focusing on Flurry. "See what you did!?"
"Hey I didn't hit him that hard, plus he was trying to kidnap Eri!" Flurry pointed out.
"I don't want your excuses!" Toga said. Just as she was going to strike, several pillars were sent her way, as she along with her allies and Flurry were scattered. "Damn, that was close."
"Eri!" Izuku stumbled over to the League.
"Here comes that dumb kid," Boom said as she went to check on Twice. "Himi! Grab the girl and run!"
"Right," Toga turned her attention to Eri. "You, with me!"
"You're not one of the heroes," Eri said.
"I'm flattered you can tell by looking at me," Toga said. "Unfortunately they're going to die here, so you can stay and take your chances with Overhaul, or come with me and be part of something amazing."
"Give her back!" Izuku shouted, stumbling over to the villains. "Don't you take her!"
"I wish I could stay Izuku, but I have things to do," Toga said, reaching to grab Eri. "Let's go!"
Suddenly a rock formation knocked Eri upward toward Chisaki's position, the villain finally catching her. "Got you!"
"AH! Someone help!" Eri called.
"Shut up!" Overhaul demanded. "You stay put, and don't even think about moving while I kill these pests! Otherwise things will be so much worse for you!"
"What a scumbag, I'll gladly kill him," Toga said. She ran to attack with her knife but took a blow to the head, courtesy of a pillar that knocked her back, leaving a cut where the attack landed.
"Maybe I should just kill Shigaraki's useless crew," Overhaul said, focusing on Toga. "Especially since you did intend to betray us. Credit to you for being able to slip past Nemoto, but I'm going to make you wish that you didn't!"
"Overhaul!" Boom walked over, holding some fireballs. "Guess it might as well be official. We quit!"
She threw some at Overhaul but he blocked and sent a spike her way, one the girl barely dodged, though it got her in the sides, blood spilling out from her injury.
"Shit!" Boom keeled over, holding in her wound.
"Tabby!" Toga shouted in concern for her ally, something that Twice noticed, even in his despair.
"Boom-Boom!" Twice called, reaching for his friend. "I can't lose another!"
"Don't worry Toga, you're next!" Chisaki readied more spikes.
"Chisaki! Don't!" Boom called.
"Too late to change your mind about quitting!" Overhaul said, and sent a bunch in Toga's direction.
"Jin! Save her!" Boom called to her ally, the villain still looking discombobulated.
Toga braced for impact, expecting death to take her. Seconds later, the sound of rock piercing skin being heard as blood began to spill.
"NO! HIMI!" Boom shouted in worry, fearing the worst for her friend.
Surprisingly, Toga wasn't injured. While awaiting for her possible death, she slowly opened her eyes and saw that someone had taken the attack for her. "Huh?"
Standing in front of Toga was Peter, the hero having stood in her path and allowing himself to be impaled for the safety of the girl behind him. He slowly turned around, checking on the girl. "Are you hurt?"
"N...no, I'm not," Toga said, the girl in disbelief.
"That's good," Peter said, breaking away the pillars as he pulled the rocks out of him. "Geez, this guy's power is strong."
"Did...did you just..." Toga couldn't wrap her mind around this. A hero had come to save her, even knowing she was a villain. "I don't...why though?"
"Why what?" Peter asked.
"Why did you save me!?" Toga shouted. "Did you mistake me for your niece!?"
"My niece is over there," Peter said, gesturing to the girl being helped up by Nejire. "I saved you because you were in danger."
Toga still could not believe her ears, the girl was unable to register what had happened, or why it happened. "But...I don't..."
"Geez Spider-Man, what is it with you and saving blights on humanity?" Overhaul asked. "First Eri, then this little piece of filth."
"Hey pal, that's no way to talk to a girl," Peter said, pulling out the last of the piercings.
"Toga!" Twice stumbled over to help the girl. "Are you hurt?"
"I'm...fine," Toga said. "Spider-Man, he..."
Even Twice couldn't believe what he saw, but the man wasted no time. "We gotta go!"
"The kid!" Toga said.
"We're outmatched!" Twice said. "Let's just hurry before the other heroes-"
"Hey! Hold it right there!" Mayday called, focusing on the League. Fortunately for them, she found herself dodging more of Overhaul's pillars. "This guy is freaking ridiculous!"
Overhaul kept Eri close to him as he raised his pillar, "I think I'll take a break for now. If you want to live, then don't follow me!"
"Eri!" Peter called.
"Peter!" Eri called back.
"I told you to shut up!" Overhaul shouted, then noticed Mirio's cape nearby. "Is it that kid again?"
"Lemillion?" The cape attached to the rock fell off, landing near Eri as her horn stared glowing bright.
"What in the..." Overhaul saw Eri's powers, reminding him of the past.
Years Prior
"I have a daughter, you might remember her Chisaki," The Boss began. "Anyway, that girl is her child. That foolish woman abandoned her own blood. She said that her husband died because of the girl, she called her a curse. Apparently her husband reached for the child, and his entire body vanished. Looks like her ability manifested and it's unlike any quirk on either side of the family. A mutation of sorts rather than an inherited power. It's rare but it happens, though more common with the X-Gene than the pinky toe extra join. I've been told she doesn't know how to use it, and is unaware of his it is activated. Her quirk may be similar to yours. Look after her, and while you do, investigate her ability. I know you're talented when it comes to that kind of stuff."
Present
"Eri doesn't have a healing ability," Chisaki said as Eri's powers defused Overhaul and Nemoto. "It's rewind!"
Eri grabbed onto Mirio's cape, holding tightly onto it, wanting to feel the comfort that Mirio promised.
"Eri!" Mayday called, the girl running up, not alone either. Izuku was right beside her the boy looking determined.
"We'll save you!" Izuku called.
Don't worry about a thing. We'll reach out to you. Even if it's a harder way.
"They're not going to give up! Not until I'm safe!" Eri thought to herself as she held Mirio's cape. "I have to go back, I want to go back. I want to be with them. I want to be with Peter and his family. I know they want me to be with them, because they love me. And I love them."
It's plain to see the reason why. Oh, that's all because of the mighty heart.
"Eri!" Izuku ran up on the falling debris. "I'm almost there!"
"Don't worry Eri!" Mayday swung up as well. "Big sis is coming!"
Izuku and Mayday continued launching upwards towards the girl, her safety being their absolute top priority.
"Peter risked everything to save you, I will make sure Eri stays safe!" Izuku ran up faster.
"You'll be with us soon little sis! I'll bring you back!" Mayday used her webs to launch herself up. "Come back to us Eri!"
Remember it's just natural that we'll be there if you need help.
Eri clutched tightly onto Mirio's cape, opting to take a leap of faith toward the heroes.
Far across the distance, rest assured that our faith just won't die.
"She's falling toward us!" Mayday called. "Be ready to catch her!"
"I will!" Izuku said, holding his arms out. "And I promise, I won't let her go!"
You know we have to sacrifice, ourselves. Whatever they may say.
Izuku and Mayday each caught Eri, holding the girl tightly together as the two huddled up close to give her extra security.
It's plain to see the reason why. Oh, that's all because of the mighty heart.
"We got you," Izuku said, comforting the girl.
"You're safe with us, little sis," Mayday said, tears of relief coming to her eyes.
Remember it's just natural that. We'll be there if you need help
"GIVE HER BACK!" Overhaul shouted, sending more attacks their way.
"I got you both!" Mayday used her webbing to pull the two away, though nearly got caught with another one of Overhaul's attacks.
"Watch out!" Izuku called.
Fortunately Peter leapt in, pulling the three kids away and out of danger.
Far across...
"Peter!" Izuku called.
"Daddy!" Mayday said.
The distance.
Eri looked up in relief, "You're here."
"Of course," Peter said, leaping to safety.
Rest assured that our faith just won't die!
Overhaul glared angry at the group, "You..."
Peter's senses began to rise, "Watch out!"
Chisaki angrily launched everyone up into the air, several of the heroes now air bound.
"GAH!" Bulma shouted, the woman flying off. "What's going on!"
"Bulma!" Johnny was about to fly over, but fortunately Vegeta was quick enough to grab her.
"I got you," Vegeta said.
"Aw, my hero!" Bulma said hugging her now embarrassed husband.
"Hey! I told you no displays of affection in public!" Vegeta shouted, the man doing his best to stay serious despite his now red face.
"Wow, talk about love," Johnny said, then felt something land on his back. "What the!?"
"Aw...how cute," Amy said, the girl having landed on Johnny. "Vegeta's tough, but he's shy. Kind of like Knuckles is."
"Hey, get off," Johnny said, trying to push her off.
"Are you crazy!? I'll fall!" Amy shouted.
"You'll live!" Johnny said, trying to push Amy.
Goku flew over, having caught Jill and Cammy, holding both of them by their shirts, with Cammy looking a bit uncomfortable.
"Goku, I appreciate you catching me," Cammy tried maneuvering around. "But my leotard is starting to ride up on me."
"Why do you still have it? Just stick with regular clothes," Jill said.
"It's just easier to move around in," Cammy said.
Rainbow Dash had caught Carlos, the girl holding him by the wrist, "You alright there, buddy?"
"Yes...now please set me down, I do not like heights," Carlos pleaded.
Peter, while in the air, was quick to look around. First he spotted Ochako, the girl having used her abilities to float, as well as having just helped out both Momo and Tsuyu to slow their descent.
Twilight had flown herself, and used her magic to catch Chris, Chun-Li and Guile. Fluttershy was able to catch herself with her wings, while Beast Boy had turned into a bird.
Starfire was carefully holding Nigtheye, trying her best not to aggravate his injury while Nejire had caught Mirio.
"Uncle Peter!" Flurry flew over to catch him by the wrist, "I got you."
"Thanks, but I'm more worried about everyone else," Peter said.
"I think they'll be fine," Flurry said. "Hey, where's-"
Izuku was falling down toward Overhaul, Eri still on his back while Mayday was beside him.
"Back for more!?" Overhaul shouted. "I'll take Eri back, even if I have to tear you all apart and piece her back together!"
"TAKE THIS!" Izuku sent out a kick so powerful, the force not only knocked Chisaki back but sent him flying toward the sky, higher than the others.
"Izuku!" Mayday called in worry.
Izuku couldn't believe it, "That kick was so hard, it sent me into the sky. Kind of like All Might's New Hampshire Smash. Did I lose control, like when I fought Kacchan?"
Down below, even Leon, Nightwing and Cyborg couldn't believe what they saw.
"What just happened?" Cyborg asked.
"Not sure, but things are getting worse," Leon said.
Everyone lowered to the ground, keeping a close eye on Overhaul as the villain fixed his injuries.
"I never told you what your power was, much less how to use it..." Overhaul said. "Eri, naughty girl, you belong to me!"
"You wish, creep!" Rainbow Dash shouted, flying in to punch Overhaul across the face. He immediately knocked her out the way, but was left open for a kick from Starfire, knocking him forward.
He used his pillars to attack again, sending the Tameranean girl flying, but this still allowed Johnny to rush in with a fiery punch to his face, then gave Amy an opening to whack him with her hammer, sending him flying.
Overhaul repaired himself as he stood up, then took a punch to the stomach from Guile, Overhaul knocking him back but then taking a punch to the jaw from Chris, stumbling him.
Chun-Li rushed in with her Spinning Bird Kick as Jill leapt overhead and delivered a flying arch kick to Overhaul's face, making him even angrier.
"You're all getting on my nerves!" Overhaul whacked them all away with his powers, though Vegeta powered through and did a massive punch to his stomach, breaking his ribs, allowing Goku a chance to kick him in the head.
Twilight appeared behind him and blasted him forward, sending him flying toward a pillar.
As Overhaul pulled himself away, he saw a tongue wrap around his waste, courtesy of Tsuyu as she pulled him in, allowing Ochako to deliver a kick to his face. Flurry and Nejire teamed up to blast him, knocking him across what was left of Capsule Corp's main lobby.
"All of you..." Overhaul fixed himself up and focused back on them as he stood up again. "All of you will-"
Suddenly he was impaled from behind, the man turned around to see Logan standing there, a snarky grin on his face.
"Miss me, bub?" Logan asked, then reeled back to deliver a powerful punch to Overhaul's jaw.
"Logan!" Fluttershy called, the girl feeling relieved.
"Sorry I worried you, darling," Logan said.
Ochako couldn't believe her eyes, "Wow, I can't believe you survived getting half your body destroyed!"
"Gonna take more than that to kill me," Logan said.
"I'll make more!" Overhaul kicked Logan away while healing himself and then sent several pikes at him, keeping him stationary. "That should keep you busy. Now then-"
Suddenly Rikiya had landed nearby, startling everyone there with Ryukyu arriving nearby.
"Wait, is that Chisaki?" Ryukyu asked, then took a blow to the face thanks to Overhaul using the ground pacement.
With Ryukyu down, Overhaul used this as a chance to merge with him, taking his power.
"With this...I will accomplish my goals!" Overhaul said.
"Stop him!" Johnny called, though he and the others took on more attacks, knocking them all away.
"I won't let anyone stand in my way!" Overhaul focused on his main goal. "You hear that Eri! I'm not done with you!"
"We gotta do something!" Ochako said.
"But how do we stop Overhaul? No matter what anyone does, he just heals himself," Tsuyu said.
"Don't bother..." Nighteye said. "He won't come after all."
"What does that mean?" Ochako asked.
"Everyone's safe for now," Nighteye said. "Chisaki doesn't want any of us. He'll go after Midoriya, Parker, and Spider-Man. Then...he'll kill them, take Eri, and escape."
"There's no way in hell I'm letting that happen," Jill said, pulling out her machine gun.
"Same, we'll kick his ass," Johnny said.
"Don't any of you get it!?" Nighteye asked. "It's over! We lost! The future I predicted will come to pass!"
"That doesn't matter," Ochako said, readying her power. "I have to do something! I have to help them! The only future is the one you create!"
"Uravity's absolutely right," Johnny said. "Come on, let's make our own future."
"Any chance we can get this guy to rebuild my home while we're at it?" Bulma asked.
"You got money, or at least good insurance don't you?" Johnny asked.
"This goes beyond my insurance!" Bulma said. "Also, weren't two of you going to help my parents' animals?"
"Oh right, Fluttershy and I were going to do that," Beast Boy said. "Hope they're not too scared."
"They do scare easy, especially the big one," Bulma said.
"What big one?" Beast Boy asked. Suddenly the animals broke free from their containment, including a gigantic one.
"Holy shit! Is that a dinosaur!?" Johnny shouted in disbelief.
"I'm sorry, a what!?" Chris shouted.
The animals ran by as the other heroes were returning, Gohan immediately spotting the trouble. "The animals are free!"
"Was that a dinosaur!?" Bobby asked. "What the fuck is going on!?"
"I can handle it," Logan said. "Shouldn't be too different from Savage Land."
"Please don't kill it!" Bulma called.
"I got it," Logan said.
"What about the others?" Ochako asked. "And Chisaki?"
"We'll round up the animals, but I trust Peter to defeat Chisaki," Amy said.
"Yeah...I trust him too, and I trust Deku," Ochako said.
"It's pointless," Nighteye said. "Just accept their fate."
"...Tsu, help Mirio and then the animals," Ochako said, going to help Nighteye. "Amy, help me show Nighteye something."
"Uh, sure, okay," Amy said, following Ochako.
"I'll keep an eye on them," Jill said, following the girls.
On the ground below, Izuku seemed to be very curious by what happened, "When I attacked, I hit with such force that I propelled high into the air. Does that mean I used One Hundred Percent just now?"
"Izuku?" Mayday said, getting his attention as she swung over. "Hey, what just happened?"
"I'm not sure," Izuku said.
"Is Eri alright?" Mayday asked.
"I'm fine," Eri insisted.
"Eri..." Izuku said. "Did you use your quirk to heal me?"
"...I'm sorry," Eri lamented.
"Why are you sorry? If you did, that's great," Mayday said. "Having a healing ability is awesome, we can fight hard without worrying about consequence, just like Wolverine and his family."
"Wolverine..." Izuku lamented, unaware that the mutant was back on his feet.
Mayday also felt some sympathy, though part of her for whatever reason wouldn't accept his apparent death. "Listen..."
"ERI!" Overhaul shouted, sending more pikes that nearly impaled the two teens. Fortunately they managed to get out of the way in time.
Overhaul appeared before them, looking even more monstrous in appearance, freaking everyone out.
"Holy crap! What is this!? This looks so gross!" Mayday shouted. "Your quirk is so damn weird!"
"At least it's not dangerous like Eri's," Overhaul said. "I should warn you, her quirk is very unusual."
"Yeah, she's a healer, which is amazing," Mayday said.
"Healer? Is that what you think?" Overhaul asked. "While you're not far off, it's not exactly a healing quirk. Think for a second about those quirk erasing bullets, the ones I made from her blood!"
"I don't even want to think about how seriously demented that sounds," Mayday said.
"Her quirk is called 'Rewind'," Overhaul explained. "It's not a healing quirk like you think it is Spider-Girl, she rewinds things just by touching them. Just like she did to her father!"
Mayday grimaced as she gently rubbed Eri's back, "Ignore him."
"I'm just being honest, it's dangerous to hold her," Overhaul said. "You're risking your life."
"You're not dangerous," Mayday reassured.
"Everyone who touches her is rewound into nothing!" Overhaul said. "I told you she was cursed, now hand her over, or would you rather be wiped out of existence!?"
"Hang on tight," Izuku said, strapping Eri onto his back with Mirio's cape. "So, you used your quirk to fix my leg to before it was broken?"
"That's impressive," Mayday said. "Sounds to me like your quirk can really be something special."
"Special?" Eri said, tears coming to her eyes. "It's not bad?"
"It can be used for bad, but that applies to everyone," Mayday said. "Like daddy always says, With Great Power comes Great Responsibility. Your quirk would do well with proper training."
"...Thank you," Eri said, the girl tearing up more.
"That means I need to fight harder and faster than she heals me!" Izuku completely powered himself up. "One Hundred Percent, Full Cowling!"
"You still want to do this the hard way!?" Overhaul slammed his giant hand down through a nearby building. "Fine! You asked for it!"
He sent more pikes toward Izuku and Mayday, though Peter arrived just in time to pull them away again.
"You kids alright!?" Peter asked.
"Daddy! Eri's Quirk is so awesome! Wanna hear about it!?" Mayday asked, perking Eri's attention.
"Later, we gotta stop Chisaki!" Peter said.
"I'm going to use Eri's power to rid the world of the disease known as quirks! Soon all of you will be cured by my genius!" Overhaul shouted, sending more attacks at the heroes.
"This guy's so delusional," Peter thought to himself.
This commotion got the attention of many of the heroes. Johnny flying nearby to see the fight, with Gohan, Raven and Starfire, while Chun-Li checked it out from a distance. Leon, Cyborg, Nightwing and Videl were also in full observation of the showdown.
Goku himself had teleported nearby, curious by the rise in power, and what was happening.
Bison, who snuck away had checked on the fight from a nearby hiding area. Not too far away, Wesker and Juri were observing from on top of a tall building.
"Geez, he looks like one of Umbrella's experiments," Juri said.
"Please, Umbrella only wishes they could have made something like that," Wesker said. "Still, Chisaki has more power than I expected."
"So what now?" Juri asked.
"We wait," Wesker said. "If Chisaki can kill Spider-Man, we'll kill him and take the girl. If Spider-Man wins, well I hate to say it, but it would be harder taking the girl from him."
"I don't think we need her, I don't feel right taking a kid like that," Juri said.
"I won't mistreat her if that's what you're worried about," Wesker said. "I know you have a soft spot for kids. If anything you can raise her yourself."
"Honestly, I don't think I'd make a good mother," Juri said. "I don't want to hurt kids, but I do find them a little annoying. But I suppose being a mother could be interesting, I doubt it will happen though."
"Time will tell," Wesker said.
Overhaul tried attacking the group again, Izuku zipping around at full speed alongside the spiders. Eventually Peter managed a kick to the head of Overhaul's monster.
"Izuku! I can handle it from here so-" Peter then saw Izuku using his full power to kick Overhaul into the sky, then leapt after him. "Whoa..."
"Pretty amazing, huh daddy?" Mayday asked.
"It is, but this feels so risky, he shouldn't be holding onto Eri like that, she'll get hurt!" Peter said.
"Actually it's good, because it invovles her quirk," Mayday said.
"It's not...ugh, we'll argue this later, come on!" Peter leapt after Overhaul with his daughter.
This sight was noticed by Toga, Twice and Boom, the three amazed by Izuku's power.
"I can see why Tomura wants that kid dead, he's much stronger than he looks," Boom said.
"If only Fake Compress lived long enough to see this," Twice said.
"Spider-Man...please be careful..." Toga mentally hoped.
Ochako had gotten Nighteye close enough to the fight, the two joined by Amy and Jill.
"Wow..." Amy said, seeing Peter and the others in action. "Amazing."
"Sir, look!" Ochako said, getting Nighteye to see the fight.
Izuku being in the air was reminded of his first time in the Battle Entrance Exams in UA, and the time he punched the Zero Point robot.
"Pretty awesome, huh Izuku!" Mayday said, leaping beside him. "You're fighting at full force! We totally got this in the bag!"
"Right, of course!" Izuku said.
"Just be careful with Eri!" Peter warned. "Eri, hold on tight and do not let go for anything! Do you understand me!?"
"Uh-huh!" Eri said.
"She's safe with me, Peter," Izuku said. "Because I am a hero! And I will save everyone!"
"I love his confidence now, but I can hear a bit of pride mixed in there," Peter worried. "I can't lecture him now, I gotta stop Overhaul."
The villain recalled his life under the Shie Hassaikai, trying desperately to prove himself to his boss. Upon realizing what Eri's quirk can do, he came up with a plan. Use her blood to create a quirk erasing bullet to sell to villains, then sell a cure for that to the heroes.
Upon telling his boss his plan, he had one simple response.
"She's a child Have you completely lost your humanity!? If you insist on going down this dark path, then you have no place in the Hasaikai."
Chisaki was disappointed to hear this, he hoped the conversation would take a different turn.
"All I want to do is repay you for your kindness. Why can't you see that!? Maybe...you need to just sit back and relax, old man."
Chisaki did something to the boss to render him into a coma while the young upstart became a sinister villain bent on letting the Hassaikai rule Japan from the shadows.
Those plans were falling apart, as no matter how hard he tried, he could not stop the overwhelming power of his opponents.
Izuku, Peter and Mayday zipped around, destroying Overhaul's outer shell, leaving the man even more defenseless.
"Ready Mayday!" Peter said. "We're about to do that move you always wanted to learn!"
"You mean..." Mayday asked.
"I sure do!" Peter said as he and Mayday zipped around, creating a web around Overhaul. Peter leapt into the air and pulled down for a massive kick. to Overhaul's back "MAXIMUM SPIDER!"
"PLUS..." Mayday landed on the ground below, kicking Overhaul into the air. "ULTRA!"
Izuku charged up for one final attack, glaring right at Overhaul. "A hero who saves everybody!" Izuku readied his attack as Overhaul looked up at his impending defeat. The sight of the boy covered in electricity as the shadow on his head slowly revealed the determined look in his yes. "That's who I'm gonna be!"
Izuku landed his punch right across the face of Overhaul, sending the villain crashing down in a wave of destruction.
Arriving in a limo was Seto Kaiba, the young man stepping out to see all the destruction. "Bulma?" The man worriedly ran around. "Bulma!"
"Is she there!?" Called Medaka.
"I don't know!" Seto continued to search. "Bulma!"
"I'm here!" Bulma called, the woman alongside Vegeta.
"Oh good," Kaiba ran to the woman. "I'm glad you're alright."
"Yeah, fortunately," Bulma said. "Right now I'm trying to round up my parents' animals."
"We have a bit of help," Vegeta said, gesturing to Pan, Bulla and Mar'i, the girls having recovered from Bison's attack and were willing to assist.
"What happened?" Kaiba asked. "Is everyone alright? Where's Trunks?"
"Off training," Bulma said.
"Who did this? Where are the heroes?" Kaiba asked.
Bulma looked to the distance, "They're here, and something tells me, the fight is already over."
From where she was, Ochako was helping Nighteye, "See Sir, it's over! Chisaki's down!"
"But I saw it...Chisaki managed to escape, Midoriya, Parker and Spider-Man perished in battle..." Nighteye said as he beheld Overhaul's unconscious body. "I saw it so clearly..."
"No future is set in stone," Amy said. "This is coming from a girl who believes in Fortune Cards."
"You make your own future," Jill said. "Peter never gives up, that's something he passed down not only to his daughter, but a student of his."
"Peter taught me, Tsu and Deku all about making our own paths," Ochako said. "He's done just that."
"Wait...does that mean though..." Nighteye said as he saw the triumphant Izuku, Mayday and Peter. "That the future can really change?"
