"...ok. Now where are we?" Naoto asked as the group looked out the window, seeing they were now in a large city with various people walking by, "Looks...normal enough."

"Welcome to I-Island." Tsukasa spoke walking out as the veil changed his attire and put him in a magenta turtleneck, black slacks, a lab coat, glasses and his hair was now combed back neatly, "A floating island where Heroes from all around the world come to get new gear, train, and show off to the elite of the Pro-Hero community." he explained while fixing his glasses, "Hmm...I guess this will best explain it." he pointed upwards, making them all peek out and look.

What he pointed out was a large holographic billboard showing the picture of a tall muscular man with blond hair combed back with two strands of it standing upwards almost like rabbit ears, dressed in a mostly blue suit with yellow gloves, his eyes seemingly shadowed by how brow as he had a large smile on his face. The board read: ALL MIGHT The Symbol of Peace! Coming soon!

"...babe…" Ben began in excitement.

"Are we in what I think we are?" Makoto asked in equal excitement, her tail beginning to wag excitedly.

"Considering you got me into it just as it came out? I think so…!" Ben replied.

"Bingo." Tsukasa smiled.

"You know where we are?" Rook questioned the two.

"Uh...yeah! Only one of the biggest mangas-with an anime adaption coming soon- in the history of ever!" Makoto beamed.

"Boku no Hero Academia," Tsukasa spoke up, "The story of the boy born without power in a world of super heroes...as he tells his journey...to becoming the World's Next Greatest Hero."

"Really?"

"Yup," Ben nodded, "Makoto got me to read it after the first issue came out...and I was instantly hooked."

"The creator was inspired by American Comic Books, clearly a lot of Spider-Man…" Tsukasa added, "But he clearly made it his own. It gets just even better as it goes on." he sighed, "But just like how in your world I'm a TV show character...here we are in a world where this is very real."

"That's happened a lot." Noel noted.

"Well I have a theory on why things like that happen but, eh I won't bore you with it." Tsukasa shrugged, "But you know where we are. So all of you can walk around without disguises."

"Really?" Rook asked.

"You think you look out of place?" Tsukasa laughed before pointing to to the left as they all saw...a humanoid Orca walking down the street with several other people. He then pointed to the right as they saw several people with odd 'mutations' such as colored skin, animal traits, extra limbs...some with even weirder changes like a guy whose head was a comic book speech bubble.

"...Oh so much yes…" Makoto squeaked out in glee before going out and the veil went over her…

"Gah!" ...before Ben yelped as his face went beet red.

"What?" Makoto asked as she turned around.

"Wow…" Tsukasa awed unaffected as Ben covered his eyes as well, "I also have a photographic memory~ Just like you~"

"...what are you…" Makoto began as Tsukasa pointed down, making her look down at her current attire, "?! The heck?!"

Gone was the random outfit she had put on to keep the sailor fuku. In place was what could best be described as a cheerleader uniform with a hint of sexyness. It was primarily a dark green with bits of black, grey, and white. The top felt more like a dark-green bikini that exposed both upper and underboob with intricate swirls that connected to a clasp resembling the Omnitrix/Plumbers symbol with a tiny black jacket with long dark-green sleeves and a lime-green line on the right side that connected to a grey circle with a white '10' in it. A pair of black cowboy boots with high heels reached up to just below her knees while her lower half had what could best be described as a slightly more modest version of the lower half of Ben's Kamui form with the 'panties' colored dark-green, a black belt to hold it up, and the skirt made of a white fluffy fabric. In her hands were a pair of lime-green pompoms.

"Well now..I know you love the boy, but adapting yourself as his personal cheerleader?" Skurd joked.

"...Hmph! Joke's on you. I more or less said I'd be there to cheer him on," Makoto huffed before looking at her outfit, "Not like the one I wore for Ben during our vacation-not for the reasons you guys think-but….I really kinda like this one."

"Hmm…" Tsukasa noted as he waved his finger, forming a veil behind the others...which pushed them all out the door letting them all change and for the girls to end up in similar attire while the boys were all dressed in letter jackets, "Interesting…" he picked up Naoto and took his wallet, "Student ID...so our story is your all students at the American version of Super Hero Highschool. You're here with me...and I am a scientist." he noted, taking out his own before pulling out a letter, "Who was invited to show off the Hero whom I have endorsed with my Support item...Ben...oh how you love to work with and against me universe…"

"You think that's bad…" Bobo began while motioning to the light red jumpsuit he was wearing..with Rex' Logo on the front, "I'm a freakin' sidekick named 'Monkeywrench'! In fact...why am I gettin' dragged into dis?!"

"Cause here talking animals are totally normal." Tsukasa explained, "Be they people with Quirks that give them animal forms...or animals that have Intelligence quirks that make them smarter than people."

"The principal of the Hero Academia is a little guy called Nezu who is like this adorable little Mouse, Dog Bear hybrid who is an animal...but his Quirk makes him smarter than people. So he's borderline just a person, he's so smart." Makoto explained before she then turned to Noel and Lambda, "Yes...he is adorable, but if we see him...no petting...he has trauma."

"Oh~ Hai/understood," the two sisters nodded in response.

"Good, just understand that, but he is a good guy. He is a principal after all." Makoto added, "The real problem I can think of for us would be...Yeesh...I forgot...if All Might and Deku are real...that guy must be real too…" she cringed.

"How's that bad?" Sari asked.

"You don't know who I'm talking about." Makoto sighed, "I'm talking about one of the manga's more...eh...polarized...lead characters…"

"Huh?"

"Well...the lead, Izuku, hero name Deku, starts off as this shy nerdy hero fanboy...who often gets bullied...by the atypical school jerk...said jerk is his childhood friend...and the secondary protagonist…" Makoto muttered, "Bakugo…"

"Or as he calls himself Explosion King Murder…" Tsukasa snorted a laugh, "His second name is a little better…"

"AH! No spoilers!" Makoto and Ben shouted.

"Fine...but I know what ship becomes canon~" Tsukasa sang.

"There's shipping?" Noel asked.

"Come with me child, and I shall tell you all the good ones, some of the bad ones, and maybe the weird ones." Tsukasa smiled.

"...lead me sensei," Noel spoke as she was already next to him.

"AH! Akuma!" Makoto shouted.

"Don't you dare finish it." Tsukasa chuckled.

"I wasn't…" Makoto pouted.

"You're thinking it aren't you?" Tsukasa asked.

"Maybe…" she replied while looking away.

"Yeah okay you guys have fun. We're gonna go tease the best ship in this fandom ever." Tsukasa replied.

"You can't stop us!" Noel declared as they bolted.

"Don't worry! I apparently took care of explaining all your powers as Quirks...so go nuts!" Tsukasa shouted in the distance.

"...that...happened," Mai muttered.

"He is enabling her bad habits!" Makoto huffed.

"Well at least it gives you two a break," Skurd chuckled a bit.

"True…" Ben sighed, "And I guess if we are allowed to use our powers as if Quirks, we won't have any trouble."

"But given this is a world full of Superheroes. We don't even need to!" Makoto laughed.

"...oh this is gonna be fun~" Rex grinned as he rubbed his hands.

"...wait," Mai began as she called out to Tsukasa, "What about my spear?!...he's not coming back is he?"

"No...he's not," Sari muttered as Mai slumped with a depressing aura, "..oh come. Don't get so down…"

"Easy for you to say...your 'Quirks' are your half Cybertronian powers, and that gift you got from Urbosa back in Hyrule…" Mai muttered, "All I have are those element proof drinks and my tastebuds…"

"Oh come on. You're still stronger than a normal person." Makoto argued.

"Not as much as you…" Mai pouted.

"Well its not like we can find you a new super spear here...we just have to wait till Tsukasa gives you back the fixed one or we get home for Kajun to do the same." Ben pointed out.

"...I can wait, but so far Tsukasa hasn't found anyone to fix said spear…" Mai sighed.

"...what if he finds someone here?" Lambda suggested, earning the bluenette's attention, "My current theory...this is a world of heroes, so it would stand to reason he'd find someone to not just fix it, but upgrade it with those items you've gotten from Gunvolt's world."

"The tech in this world is awesome." Makoto added, "The tech heads here need to make constant new stuff for superheroes with weird powers. They even made clothing for a guy whose power is that he can phase through stuff...even his clothes."

"Really?" Mai blinked.

"It serves the gag you think it does. But is also amazing when you consider what I meant the clothing can also do." Makoto elaborated, "Heck there is even a character in the manga who just serves as a mad scientist for making hero gadgets."

"Interesting…" Rook noted, "...oh. Perhaps you could find someone to fix your ProtoArmor...or maybe make something new for you."

"...oh my god I didn't th-!" Makoto began before some cries of panic went off, "?"

"...hero time?" Naoto asked Ben.

"For who?" Ben asked as tons of figures ran ahead of them, "This is a world of Heroes…" he reminded, "It feels weird to not be the first to run after these things."

"Ahh...that is true…" Naoto muttered, "...still, wouldn't hurt to help as...uh…" he paused as he motioned to his current outfit, "...what do I even call myself?"

"Pocket," Bobo spoke.

"Ahh.." Naoto nodded as he dug into his pocket, pulling out a small card, "'Crimson Fang'...that honestly sounds better than what I was thinking." 'Plus I think Bloodedge was taken anyway…'

"'Generator Rex..'" Rex read as he and the others pulled out similar cards, "...I dig it. Sounds like the name of a show I'd give myself."

"So the world...gave us hero names?" Makoto realized as she dug around for her own wallet, "Come on something good!"

"Cyber Bolt…..okay that's a good one," Sari admitted as she read her card.

"Hey this is kinda fun." Ben chuckled.

"What did you get?" Naoto asked as Ben read his card.

"Ben 10...heh. Some things never change…"

"...Phoenix...Idol?" Lambda blinked in confusion as she read her card, "Nande?"

"I have...Galactic Patroller…" Rook spoke up.

"...I feel like this world hates me," Mai deadpanned as she looked at her card.

"It can't be that bad…" Makoto began.

"Memory Taster…"

"...yeesh. And I thought my stupid hero name was bad," Bobo cringed, makign the bluenette glare at him, "What? Its true…"

"Come on something space themed...come on something space themed…!" Makoto whispered to herself in excitement as she finally got her card, "Aha! I'm…Cheer Girl Makoten…."

"Well...I guess the world accepts you two are impossible to separate." Sari muttered.

"..."

"...babe?" Ben asked in concern.

"...the name's okay, but…" Makoto began before a depressing aura surrounded her, "I was hoping for a space themed name…"

"Seriously it's not that bad…"

"It makes me sound like I'm obsessed with Ben!" Makoto complained, "...I mean, I already love the goober with all my heart, but my name makes me sound so...so…!"

"Much like a stalker?" Skurd offered.

"Exactly!"

"I mean you two are never apart." Sari pointed out.

"That is different. We are in a mutually supportive relationship." Makoto argued, "'Sides we spend time apart. It's just we haven't had the time to be apart cause we are stuck in a crazy adventure together!"

"There there, babe…" Ben whispered as he patted her shoulder, the squirrel girl crying anime tears as she leaned against her boyfriend. He then heard some sirens going off in a different area, "...you know, considering the heroes are dealing with another problem, we can go take care of that new one ourselves…"

"Mmm~"

"...I'll let you throw the first punch."

"That would be unlikely," Skurd up as he read Makoto's card, "Says here she's not allowed to fight unless threatened or captured..and only meant to cheer on the sidelines as a sidekick...oof."

"Not helping…!" Ben hissed as Makoto slumped further.

"Also...that reminds me...here you need a Hero License to jump in and help. We are provisional Heroes…" Makoto muttered.

"...oh...right," Ben muttered

"This is one of those...the world isn't as perfect as it looks type deals isn't it?" Naoto sighed.

"Kinda…" Makoto and Ben muttered, "It's...more complicated…"

"We talked about the couple's unison speech thing…" Mai sighed.

"Sorry…" Makoto mumbled.

"...look. Let's just hurry and go help some people out," Ben sighed.

"Good idea," Rook nodded," Hopefully it is nothing too big for us to handle."


"Attention people…!" a large burly figure in black and dark purple armor shouted, hefting a large hammer over his shoulder as he and a few similar armored figures pointed at the scared people, "This island is now under the control of the Harbingers! Swear your fealty to us, and we won't harm you…"

"But if you go against us…" one in black and red armor began before firing their rifle at a nearby store, causing the inside to be engulfed in flames as an explosion went off, "Understood?"

"Well...this is a thing." Ben muttered as they arrived, "They sure are some weirdos."

"Probably some bad guys trying to make themselves the next big bad," Makoto added.

"Yeah...well they're in for a rude wake up call," Rex grinned as he slid his goggles over his eyes.

"Bobo and I will help get the people inside that shop out," Mai spoke up, "Makoto?"

"...may as well help since I'm technically allowed to fight unless kidnapped or threatened," Makoto sighed as she, Mai, and Bobo ran off, "Whoop their butts for me, Ben!"

"Hmm?" the lead Harbinger turned to see Ben and his group nearby, "Oh...its just some stupid kids trying to be heroes…"

"I get that a lot…" Ben sighed, "More than you know back home."

"Some American brat, thinking he can be the next big shot just cause All Might got his start there!" the Leader laughed.

"Oh trust us buddy…" Rex began as he brought his Slam Fist out, "You do not wanna tempt our amigo here."

"Oh cute...so the pretend hero's sidekicks think he's a threat!" the rifle wielder laughed a bit, "Just get in line with the other hostages, or else…"

"...Ben?" Sari spoke as she brought her sword and shield out.

"Already ahead of ya," Ben said as he already had the Omnitrix activated, "It's Hero time!"

"Wh-" the Harbingers began before green flash went off, which soon died down as Soundwave took Ben's place, "?!"

=Haven't been this one in a long while= Soundwave noted as he looked at himself, =But for you...this is overkill.=

"What the hell...what kind of quirk is that?!"

"I've never seen a Transformation Quirk so extreme!"

=To summarize the situation…= he spoke as his arms changed into blasters with two gatling guns forming over his shoulders, =Surrender...Soundwave Superior...you are...Inferior=

"Why did you say it like that?" Skurd asked, his voice coming from in his chest.

=I dunno. It felt right= Soundwave shrugged before the lead Harbinger's hammer slammed into him, purple electricity crackling off it as the Cybertronian was sent flying.

"Just because your bigger...doesn't mean you're immune to the weapons we acquired!" the lead Harbinger shouted, he swung his hammer once more, only to blink as Soundwave caught it mid swing.

Soundwave held the hammer up...before snapping the handle like a twig...and crushing the hammer's head with his thumb, index and middle fingers. He looked around before lowering his hand and clicking his finger into their leader sending him flying back.

=Now...who's next?= he asked as he looked at the rest =Do you mind if I just finish them?= he looked to his friends =Or do you guys want a turn?=

"Considering you took out the leader…" Naoto began as he took a stance, "May as well leave the grunts to us."

"Hey don't forget me." Rex chuckled, "This actually looks like some normal fun for once." He swung his arms out as before forming his Smack Hands, bringing them together for a loud thunderous clap.

"Their weapons might just make this fair…" Rook muttered, "Possibly...potentially...hopefully…" he muttered.

"I'm not much for bullying...but you boys look like you need some fun." Sari smiled, "Come get me when it's something big."

"Agreed." Lambda nodded in agreement.

=Prepare to be...terminated= Soundwave chuckled.

"I hope whatever evil villain group you work for has a good health insurance policy." Naoto smirked.

"Oh given what they tried...it must be great." Rex added.

"Well that is nice." Rook smiled, cracking his knuckles as his hands were now coated in Haki.

"...Oh son of a…" one of them began as he lowered his weapons.

"What kind of freaks does America have…" another muttered.

"I knew I should have become a dentist…" one sighed in defeat.

"Yes...you should have!" Naoto grunted, running up and kicking the grunt in the chin, "Also for the record…I'm technically from Japan."

"The rest of us are U.S.A. grown, home and proud." Rex chuckled as he swung and punched a grunt sending him flying.

"I lived on a farm." Rook decided to roll with the cover as he swung and punched another grunt in the chest before landing a chop to the neck, knocking him out.

=Skurd what are you even doing in there?= Soundwave asked tapping his chest.

"I don't know...I opened my eyes and am inside of your chest compartment…" he explained, "I think you have some sort of pocket space in here...it's much...Bigger on the inside. I can hear my echo!"

"...What if…" Sari whispered, smacking a grunt with her shield before snapping her fingers, causing a bolt of green lighting to strike a grunt, "Ben, try pressing the eject button!"

=Eject?= he turned his head around to see a white bit of his body just jutting out near his shoulder, =Decepticons are weird…= he muttered tapping it, his chest then opened, =What the…= suddenly a green cassette shot out, it flipped through the air before becoming black and unfolding, what landed, could best be described as a mechanical panther.

=So...I'm part of the gimmick…= Skurd spoke in an accented voice.

=Yep...Decepticons are weird…=

"Agreed," Lambda muttered, using her swords to slice up a grunt's armor..with a bit of flames coming off said blades, "?"

"...and that was new," Rex blinked, pausing from punching a larger grunt,

"...could it be possible Lambda obtained the Muse's power during that one battle?" Rook whispered to himself, using his Proto-Tool to fire a shot and knock a weapon out of a grunt's hands, "...I'll have to check Noel as well once we find her…"

"This is getting weird man! That one kid...somehow ejected a robot cat!" one of the grunts complained.

=Sic em= Soundwave ordered.

=Oh fine...Rawr!= Skurd roared, tackling one over before grabbing his leg with his jaws and shaking him around like a ragdoll =This is fun~= he cheered using the grunt like a club to hit more of his fellow underpaid grunts.

"Oh screw this...I don't even like you guys." one grunt spoke up as he dropped his weapon and began walking away. As he turned a corner, he was suddenly pistol whipped and knocked out as Noel and Tsukasa were standing there with popcorn.

"See...I told you we'd have time to get snacks." Tsukasa muttered between bites.

"Mmm...why is street food always extra yummy?" Noel muttered, eating a handful.

"Can't say." Tsukasa spoke, stepping on the goon, "See? I told you they would handle the bad guys back up." he motioned to the others.

"You're right, that made a lot of sense. But given our track record I was right to worry!" Noel nodded.

"Hey Noel! About time you showed up!" Sari waved, kicking her shield into a grunt that tried to run, "That's right! Nobody runs from Cyber Bolt!"

"Oh. So you found out your hero names," Noel noted.

"What did you end up getting?!" Rex shouted as he and Naoto tackled a pair of large grunts.

"Azure Eyes," Noel answered, "...but, my eyes aren't azure."

"Oh right. The world doesn't know what you know or don't know...so...you'll find out." Tsukasa explained. He then suddenly swung his arm back and smacked his fist into a grunt's mask...breaking it and knocking him over, "Self defense…" he responded.

"...ano, where's Makoto, Mai and Bobo?" Noel asked.

"Helping people out of that burning store," Rook replied, pointing to said store as the trio were currently helping out some people.

"...why isn't…"

"She is apparently not allowed to fight unless threatened or kidnapped."

"Oh that does not sound like she's going to enjoy that…" Noel cringed.

"NO I DO NOT!" Makoto complained, overhearing her as she put some people down, "Mmm~ I wanted a chance to fight, but I'm stuck as a damsel-in-distress type of stalker fangirl!"

"Just...suck it up…!" Bobo grunted as he dragged a fat man out of the store.

"The Universe is kinda annoying like that…" Tsukasa sighed.

"Mmm…" Makoto pouted a bit, "...well..at least w-" she began before she was grabbed from behind, "?!"

"Nobody move!" the lead Harbinger shouted, his helmet broken to show a busted lip and a blackened eye while he held a knife to Makoto's neck, "All you gaijin lay down your powers, or else the fangirl gets it!"

=Nice joke~= Soundwave snapped his finger =You're funny=

"What?!" he shouted before grunting as Makoto grabbed his hand...and began crushing it with her grip...knife handle included as the blade fell off as a result.

"Grr…" Makoto growled as she whipped her neck upward, letting the lead Harbinger see the pure red rage in her eyes.

"...oh cr-"

*BAM!*


"Hmm? The heck was that…?" a rather really pale, skinny looking male adult with shaggy blond hair blinked, overhearing someone screaming before he noticed the Lead Harbinger flying off in the distance, "...What distance...I think that almost matched a record of mine."


"...that is a lot of pent up anger…" Mai whispered as the remaining grunts all hid behind overturned cars...to hide from the scary 'cheerleader' that would send them flying into space.

"Come on! Who else wants to kidnap me huh?! I dare ya!" Makoto snapped as she looked around the area, "Kidnap me and you're getting sent to space by my fists!"

=I should not find this hot...but...I do…= Soundwave muttered.

=That is a you problem, dear boy…= Skurd muttered while sitting next to him.

"Okay...we'll give you mercy if you promise to give up." Rex chuckled, "Maybe...probably...hopefully…"

"Or we let the very angry girl crush you...and we hope it's your hands she intends to crush…" Naoto chuckled.

=She's probably aimed below the belt to make a point…= Soundwave muttered.

"...we give up!" the Harbinger grunts panicked as they all held their hands up.

"Just keep that crazy squirrel girl away from us!"

A flash went off as Soundwave reverted to Ben, who sighed as Skurd slinked back onto the Omnitrix. Ben walked over and picked Makoto up and tossed her over his shoulder as she flailed to try and get free to attack them.

"This isn't over! I will find you! I'll find the only things you care for!" she shouted.

"You...should probably go to prison...it's the only safe place." Mai spoke, "She's essentially one part ninja…"

"She's oddly good at sneaking…" Noel muttered.

"And information gathering…" Mai added on.

"...learn to sleep with one eye open." Sari and Lambda spoke with a nod of their heads.

"Man...Ben sure knows how to pick 'em," Rex chuckled.

"I think that's just an example of how strong love it…" Naoto muttered sheepishly.

"Least we's done," Bobo muttered, pulling out a rope before tossing it at one of the grunts, "Here...tie yourselves up till da cops come, or else we'll sic' da rabid squirrel gal on youse."

"Okay yeah sure…" one spoke slightly surprised by that, "Man Quirks be getting weird…"

"No kidding…" Another muttered, "..we're just thankful we didn't' bump into All Might or..."

"Don't jinx it!" the other grunts snapped in unison.

"AHH!"


"Calm down yet, babe?" Ben asked as he and a pouting Makoto were walking down a path leading to a rather large stadium-like building.

"Mmm…" she huffed.

"Come on, I know it stinks, but you are always telling me that the world not being perfect is part of the story." Ben sighed, "How about we try and not get involved in this stuff and enjoy this place for what it is?"

"...ahh...fine…" Makoto sighed, "...Seriously, I should be excited about where we are, but moment we get here...it sticks me in a useless position…"

"W…"

"Outside of being pinned as a damsel in distress...which I so am not!" Makoto argued…before muttering a bit, "Outside of…" she began to grip herself for a moment as she shook a bit, "That time...with her…"

"Hey that's not fair. You were brainwashed, you literally couldn't fight that sort of thing." Ben argued.

"You did." Makoto argued.

"That's not fair to yourself, I turned myself into a being of pure Data and light...kinda hard to brainwash something that's borderline a super computer that percies time like a 100 times slower." Ben argued.

"Yes but...you weren't there…" Makoto whispered as she hugged herself a bit more, "You weren't there...when she put all those things in my head..I felt so...so weak...vulnerable..powerless...that I literally had no one to count on...I felt so...so…"

"Hey hey…" Ben stopped her as he put his hands on her shoulders, "I get it...really I do. I have been there before, just not that way. Look...I don't blame you for feeling that in the moment cause that's how her plan worked. But I will always be there. I won't let that happen again, okay?" he smiled, "I know...it sucks to be powerless when it matters the most. That was kinda my life when I was 10...the Omnitrix back then was not kind. And...I did get in over my head a lot...so...trust me I know. I still have some nightmares about that first time I faced...and got the ever loving crap beat out of me by Vilgax."

"...now I can't help but worry about younger you…" Makoto whispered before shaking her head.

"Look...I know...it must suck to have to be the powerless one. But, this is just what happens here. Back home, how many times have you saved me from getting killed because the Omnitrix timed out?" Ben argued, "How often did you stop me from making things somehow Even worse? I know it probably feels like I'm saying this just 'cause I'm your boyfriend and I love you, but well...you're my hero. That moment all those months ago...was the single scariest thing ever. I think I got so mad...I somehow calmed down in the moment."

"Ooh...a calm yet silent rage," Skurd quietly noted, "Hm...I mayhaps underestimate you my boy...not many would go that far to rescue the one they love without repercussions, and yet you went to face the 'beast' itself to save the woman you love...honestly makes me wonder who this 'her' is you keep referring to, but...in respect for the young lady, I won't push any further to avoid bringing up any PTSD."

"We'll tell you some day, Skurd." Makoto sighed, flicking him, "And thanks," she looked at Ben, "I know it's probably me putting too much thought into something silly. It's just...ever since then I hated feeling...useless."

"Well you're kinda the only thing keeping me going some days." Ben offered, "I have had so many days where I wish I was done. But...well I got you, so I have to keep doing the Hero thing. I know you're not weak, Makoto. Your honestly scary strong, and I am honestly deeply afraid of the day I do something stupid and really upset you!" he laughed.

"...eh heh. To be honest, I'm scared of the day I upset you," Makoto snickered a bit as she began to join him in his laughing, "Seriously I'm strong, but I doubt I could take on Way Big or Alien X in a full on fight!"

"Yeah but Alien X is borderline useless…" Ben chuckled, "You'd totally win that one. Sides, why would I ever be mad at you? Your borderline the best thing in my life. I don't think I'd be near as happy without you in my life. 'Cause well...I'm probably one of the only Ben's...who has you."

"Oh? So I'm that special to you…" Makoto noted, a blush forming on her face as she smiled a bit, "Well...you're just as precious to me, Ben."

"I know you hate this, but let's not take it seriously. I know you're a great fighter, and a great Hero on your own. Lets just take this as a stupid joke we can laugh about later," Ben offered, "I mean...it is a little funny."

"...heh heh. It kinda is now that I think about it," Makoto chuckled a bit before leaning into to whisper to him, all while pressing her assets against him in her hug "Besides...if I can keep this little number when we head back home, maybe I can get some…'cheer practice' with ya when we're all alone~"

"Hah…" Ben sputtered while blushing.

"But…!" Makoto began as she released the hug, "While we're here, let's enjoy ourselves! Besides...I bet we could meet some certain heroes in training while we're here...and meet some of the other heroes."

"Ahh...yeah that's true," Ben muttered.

"I am curious myself o-" Skurd began before he noticed something large walking nearby, "?! ...Was that Godzilla just now?!"

"That...wasn't in the manga…" Ben muttered in awe.

"What is even happening?!" Makoto happily cheered, "...wait. A...are we in one of the movies?!"

"M-..." Ben blinked before a ringing went off in his pocket, prompting him to reach in and pull his phone out, "Hello?"

=Oh right forgot to mention, this place isn't in the manga so you don't know what's gonna happen...unless she's seen them, in which case...she's gonna flip out= Tsukasa spoke =Try not to question too much just enjoy and don't mess with the ships!=

=I'll hurt you if you do= Noel spoke up after.

"...yes, ma'am," Ben, Skurd and Makoto whispered as Tsukasa hung up on his end.

"I'm worried he's indulging Noellie too much…" Makoto spoke up.

"He is really invested in that for this world huh?" Ben muttered.

"Considering how many ships are in this series….most likely," Makoto figured before an explosion went off within the Coliseum, "?"

=A clear time of 33 seconds!= a female voice called out form the nearby speakers =Red Riot is in 8th Place!=

"?!" Makoto tensed up upon hearing that, visibly shaking as a big smile began to form on her face, "Ben….!"

"Oh dear...I think she's about to explode out of pure excitement!" Skurd exclaimed as he slid right under the Omnitrix to hide.

"They're here?" Ben smiled, "Come on let's go check it out." he grabbed her hand and began running.

"...yes! SO MUCH YES~!" Makoto squealed as her tail began to wag so fast, it was practically a blur.

"But let's try not to get sucked into it. I can like Bakugo enough...but I don't wanna deal with him as a person." Ben chuckled.

"Agreed!"


"SHINEI!"

*BOOM!*

"Oh my…" a female announcer blinked as a figure landed near her, "Only 15 seconds...first place!"

"Heh...too easy," the figure, a young man with short, spiky light-blond hair smirked as he stood up, wearing an all black and orange attire with a pair of large, grenade-themed gauntlets going all the way up to his elbows.

"Wow it really is him…" Ben whispered as he and Makoto found the arena, they looked around before Ben gawked and tapped his girlfriend's shoulder before pointing her towards the opposite end of the arena.

"What? What? Ahhh…" she gasped spotting a boy with green hair dressed in all green watching this happening as well, "This is really happening~" she gasped as she looked to see two girls standing next to him, one a taller girl with blond hair and glasses dressed in normal clothing, and a girl with short brown hair dressed in a black and pink colored costume, "Even best girl Ochako is here too~" she whispered grabbing Ben's arm, "Look the others too! Momo, Jiro and Ida~" she pointed to a girl with long black hair tied into a ponytail in a revealing red one piece attire with a large belt acting as a skirt, a girl dressed in a punk rock attire with short black hair and her ears had what looked to be headphone jacks stretching out, and finally another young besecled man clad in white body armor with what looked like engine pipes on his legs.

"And Kirishima is here with Bakugo." Ben noted looking down at a young man with spiky red hair dressed in a costume that exposed most of his torso save for the two gear like straps over his shoulders.

The couple jumped back when the one known as Bakugo suddenly jumped to the railing and glared at the boy in green.

"WHY ARE YOU HERE!?" he shouted, shaking the railing violently.

"S-stop Kacchan…" he tried to calm down the angry boy, "People are watching…"

"SO WHAT?!" he snapped, his eyes white in rage.

"He's so loud…" Ben whispered.

"Stop this Bakugo-kun!" the one called Ida shouted getting in front of the Green boy defensively with his arms held out.

"THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!" Bakugo snapped.

"Why is that boy so angry?" the blonde asked.

"It's how he always is…" Jiro sighed.

"It is a fated battle between men." Ochako stated.

"Don't act like the class rep here too!"

"A Class Rep is always a Class Rep!"

Momo chose to ignore Bakugo as she want to the railing to get a better view at Kirishima, "Kirishima-san did you two also get invited to the expo?"

"Nah! Just Bakugo since he won the school Festival!" Kirishima replied happily, "I'm just his plus one!"

"Eh...Bakugo actually has a friend?" Jiro muttered with a smirk.

"I think Kirishima-kun is the only one who tries." Ochako muttered.

"The fuck you say!?" Bakugo snapped.

"You're right! I am the only one that tries besides Midoriya!" Kirishima laughed.

"SHUT UP!" Bakugo shouted.

"Well..talk about an unpleasant young man," Skurd whispered from his hiding spot underneath the Omnitrix.

"That's Bakugo…" Ben muttered, "He's essentially just a bully who's slowly growing into a decent guy…"

"Emphasis on slowly…" Makoto muttered, "Yeesh talk about a long burn on his character arc. But...it does get better…"

"I feel he's still a bit of a turn off for a lot of folks…" Ben muttered.

"He probably turns off a lot of girls…" Makoto joked to herself.

"Who insulted me!? I felt it!" Bakugo shouted suddenly, "Was it you Deku!? Come here!" he shouted, reaching for the cowering boy in green only for Ida to block his arms.

"Stop embarrassing us before the world!" Ida snapped.

"Hey you guys gonna give this challenge a try?" Kirishima asked, choosing to ignore Bakugo.

"Don't even Try!" Bakugo snapped looking at Deku, "You'll never beat my score!"

"Yeah you're probably right," Deku nervously replied.

"You won't know unless you try!" Ochako shouted.

"Yeah you're probably right…" Deku repeated before blinking at what he just agreed with, "Eh, wait?" Bakugo jumped over the railing and walked close.

"Then hurry up and go get your pathetic results, KUSO-NERD!" Bakugo shouted right in Deku's face.

"H-Hai!" Deku meekly nodded.

"Oh this should be good." Ben smiled.

"I wonder if things will go differently." Makoto muttered as Deku walked down, "Oh! Why don't you try?" she turned to Ben and grabbed his arm again.

"What no way...last thing I want is that explosive lunatic to hyper focus on me 'cause of my powers." Ben whispered.

"I felt it again!" Bakugo shouted.

"Shut up!" Jiro shouted, "No one cares what you feel!"

"That's right everyone here just wants to watch Deku-kun!" Ochako stated.

"Like that damn loser can beat my time!"

"Now we've got a challenger coming in at the spur of the moment!" the announcer spoke up as Deku stood ready while new robots were deployed. Deku took a breath as he raised his arms at his sides to stand in a Horse stance, "Just what kind of results will he get?" she excitedly asked as Deku's body began glowing, red markings forming on his body while green lightning sparked off him, "Villain Attack...Ready, Go!" she shouted as Deku took off and began climbing the cliff face.

He ran and leapt up with amazing speed and power before jumping high into the air...and coming down to smash one of the robots with a punch. He became a blur as he tackled into a second, then a third, a fourth, a fifth and then the final sixth robot at the very top of the cliff face.

"This is amazing, too! Sixteen Seconds! Second place!" the announcer shouted.

"Hmm…" Ben muttered, "His footing was wrong for that last jump…"

"Huh?" Makoto blinked, "You noticed that?"

"Well my favorite aliens are my power types…" Ben chuckled, "I learned if I don't get my footing right my jumps will be all wrong. Plus he put more power into his arms than his legs."

"I guess you really would be a pro-hero in this world." Makoto smiled.

"I've just been at it longer, I had to learn this stuff when I was ten." Ben chuckled.

"Ahh...that is t-" Makoto began with a giggle before a yell from Bakugo startled the two, "Ahh!"

"Don't act so confident!" Bakugo snapped at Deku, "You just got lucky a-"

"WOW! He finished it in no time flat!" The female announcer called out as a young man with one side of his hair a pure white while the other was a red-color stood up, looking out at the now frozen mountain.

"...Ben, pinch me. I think I've died from a fangasm," Makoto whispered as she began to squeal silently in excitement.

"Todoroki-Kun!" Deku awed.

"He's also a classmate of yours?" the blonde asked the girls.

"Hai!" Ochako cheered.

"You're all amazing! As expected of future heroes!" she smiled, making the girls blush at her compliment.

"ICY HOT BASTARD!" Bakugo snapped, jumping up as he shot towards Todoroki, explosions coming off of his hands each time to propel him faster, "YOU JUST CAN'T APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE AND SHOW ME UP!"

"Midoriya and the others are here too." Todoriko noted as he literally ignored the explosive teenager getting up in his face.

"DON'T IGNORE ME, TEME!-!-!" Bakugo snapped, "Why are you even here?!"

"Hah…I'm here to represent my father who is too busy to make it to an event like this. Personally I'm just glad there's an entire ocean between us." he explained, "I'm surprised they allowed explosives on the plane…"

"DA HELL YOU SAY!?" Bakugo snapped.

"He almost got kicked off!" Kirishima shouted, earning a few laughs.

"SHUT IT!"

"Uhm...the next person is waiting…" the announcer tried to speak up.

"Shut up! I'm next!" Bakugo snapped.

"Everyone! Stop them!" Ida shouted running up to them, "U.A.'s embarrassing secret will be revealed to the world!"

"I'm fairly sure the world doesn't know Bakugo is a thing yet…" Todoroki muttered.

"Da fuck you say!?"

"OH!" Kirishima agreed as he and Deku jumped down to help stop the potentially large fight that could break out.

"...I will state again, what a rather unpleasant young man," Skurd muttered, "It's like dealing with the explosive anger and ego of…"

"Okay! I know I heard someone talking shit about me!" Bakugo snapped as he looked around.

"Everyone is talking about you. You're an utter embarrassment." Todoroki spoke.

"FUCK YOU!" Bakugo roared, trying to lunge at him as Kirishima and Ida held him back, "Let me murder his half-n-half ass!"

"Probably best we slowly walk out for now," Ben whispered to Makoto.

"Good idea...less a certain booger keeps angering him," Makoto added.

"What? I'm not allowed to observe?" Skurd scuffed as he was pushed back underneath the Omnitrix, "Oh fine…"

"Oh you're here." Tsukasa's voice got their attention as they turned to see him and Noel standing there, wearing oversized T-shirts they got from a gift shop reading: 'I AM HERE' in bold gold letters, both wearing sunglasses and baseball hats as well.

"I should have figured you'd go to where action happened." Noel smiled.

"What are you two…?" Makoto began.

"Shh...the shipping is happening in its natural environment." they both shushed as the argument was getting heated to the point the girls joined in as well.

"Of course you would…" the couple sighed.

"See the cute one with short brown hair is Best girl Ochako." Tsukasa pointed out for Noel.

"Oh~" she nodded.

"Rule of thumb...Ochako and Deku equals win...Ochako and Bakugo...your stupid…" he smirked.

"Which one is Bakugo?"

"The one who's embarrassing his school by being a siren head imitator through his shouting."

"Oh...the one who's cursing a lot?"

"That's the one."

"...no. Just no," Makoto shook her head.

"Shh…" both hushed.

"Who else is there?" Noel asked.

"The girl in the one piece is Momo, the one next to her is Jiro. Red and spiky is Kirishima...he's nice, I like him. Ida the class Rep, he's like everyone's annoying brother, then that's Todoroki," Tsukasa pointed out, "Hmm...not all the female leads are here...I can't show you all the ships...and so many good ones too…"

"Poo…" Noel pouted.

"You guys can not just be doing this all day…" Makoto sighed, hands on her hips.

"I can and I will." Tsukasa replied.

"I have someone who shares my hobby!" Noel cheered.

"I find so few worlds where I enjoy doing this." Tsukasa added.

"...okay I'll give you two that…" Makoto muttered, "I mean...lord knows there's so rare few Shonen manga with some pretty good ships...and that's all I'm saying to avoid that powderkeg going off."

"You do like the female leads a lot," Ben added, "You even said there is a Female character later down in the manga's story you like even more."

"Oh ho yeah…!" Makoto nodded with a grin, "But enough fangirling for me...Let's enjoy ourselves and see who's up next!"

"This one," Tsukasa held Ben's arm up.

"Of course you would!" Makoto gawked.

"Next up is...oh! Someone from America!" the announcer called out as an image of Ben showed up on the Screen, "An up and coming hero from the states, Ben 10!"

"Wait, wha-AH!" Ben yelped as Tsukasa tossed him over the railing, "You are clinically insane, you whack wannabe Scientist!"

"Knock 'em dead, kiddo!" Tsukasa laughed.

"How can you just toss my boyfriend like a ragdoll!?" Makoto shouted, shaking Tsukasa.

"It's easy, I'm a very strong person…" he replied.

"...Shoot, you are," Makoto muttered in realization before looking back out at Ben, "Still, good luck, hun! Show 'em how we do things in the states!"

"An American Hero student?" Deku spoke up as they watched this.

"And you say I'm freakin' loud…" Bakugo muttered.

"You are far worse than them!" the others-minus Deku-shouted.

"URUSEI!" Bakugo snapped...thus proving their point, "Besides, that gaijin doesn't look like he'll last the first few seconds!"

"Beat that high score!" Makoto cheered.

"Like hell he can!" Bakugo snapped.

"Ah...Well, this is happening…" Ben sighed as he raised the Omnitrix.

"A Watch?" Deku blinked, "Could it be a support item? But...how...It's either a limiter for an Emitter type...or he's a Transformation type." he muttered.

"It would explain why he's not dressed in Hero Gear…" Ida added.

"Let's see...hmm...can't use Soundwave...way too loud...Shock Rock...nice...but too much flash...Hey perfect, Chromastone." he found one he wanted as the dial lifted up, "Okay, let's do this!" he spoke slamming down on the Omnitrix.

Everyone winced as the flash of light blinded them. They all gasped seeing Ben replaced by Chromastone.

"What the hell...he turned into a totally different Hero!" Kirishima shouted.

"Ooh~ Haven't seen this form in a long while," Makoto noted, pulling the pom poms out of her tail as she began to wave them, "Go Ben go! Show those guys you're not slow!"

"Makoto?" Noel blinked.

"Hey I'm dressed the part...may as well act it out," Makoto whispered to her.

"Ready…!" the announcer began, getting over her initial shock as the 'villain' robots reappeared, "GO!"

Chromastone grunted as he jumped high into the air, his single eye moving side to side as he took note of each and every robot already deployed. He crossed his arms as rainbow hued light shone around him, the light charging up before he held his arms out...and fired multiple lasers all at the same time taking each and every single robot out all at once. He lowered his hands and began floating down as everyone just gawked at the time.

"10 Second even…" the Announcer gasped, "F-First Place!"

"Ah…" Kirishima gawked, "He...He took them all out in one attack...and even faster than Todoroki…"

"He targeted each one in an instant…" Momo muttered.

"Such control and accuracy…" Ida spoke.

"He's on a whole other level above us," Deku added.

"Hmm...I was too slow on the charge up." Chromastone sighed, "I could have done better…"

"DONE BETTER?!" the UA Students-minus Todoroki and a seething Bakugo-gawked.

"Loud…" Chromastone muttered as he turned to them, "Ah.,..not like I'm trying to show off...it's just I'm already in my final year of school. I do training like this all the time." he explained sheepishly, "My sponsor just wanted me to show off to make him look good."

"And it worked!" Tsukasa shouted.

"I wanted no part in this!" Chromastone shook a fist at him.

"Why not...it gives the hatchlings something to strive for," Tsukasa chuckled.

"We shouldn't tease people younger than us…" Makoto replied, shaking her head.

"Very true...though…" Noel began as she spotted the now burning red and angry Bakugo, "...We may need to flee...mainly Ben before…"

"BASTARD!" Bakugo snapped, literally rocketing towards Chromaston. "DON'T LOOK DOWN ON ME LIKE YOU'RE BETTER!"

"Not better...more skilled," he replied calmly as he side stepped him, "You could stand to improve some as it is, dude." he sighed, "Your propulsion is amazing...but you put out too much, so your path is too linear...I can read where you're gonna go."

"He...He talks like Midoriya…" Jiro noted.

"Eh?" Deku blinked.

"Da hell did you say!?" Bakugo snapped as he slammed his hand into Chromastone and let off an explosion, but he grunted when Chromastone's arms reached out and grabbed him by the face before pushing him down.

Chromastone grunted, flipping Bakugo over and pinning his arms behind him before using his knee to hold them and him down.

"My body is made of stone and crystal far harder than any you know. I am also a walking conductor for energy; all you did was scuff me and empower me." he explained, "If you wanna prove you're stronger...try beating my time. 'Cause I'm not gonna fight you, buddy. I don't have time to waste on this stupid highschool bully routine."

"...Ooh, that had to hurt his pride…" Makoto cringed.

"Pfft...Please...this is Bakugo…" Tsukasa rolled his eyes.

"Not even phased...He took Bakugo down like nothing!" Kirishima gawked.

"That's what that idiot gets for trying to start a fight with someone clearly better at this than him," Jiro sighed.

"No matter how you look at it, he's our Senior; and he's clearly gifted with a much more amazing Quirk than any we've ever seen," Momo added.

"Furthermore, his control, execution, and performance of his powers far exceeds any of us," Todoroki added, "He could become a high ranking Pro-Hero in no time once he graduates...maybe even better then my old man."

"Sugoi...he's like a living prism," Deku noted, "He took down Kacchan without even a moment of hesitation...no wasted moves…"

"Grr...Kuso...let me go!" Bakugo shouted.

"You gonna chill out and leave me alone?" Chromastone asked, pushing on his arms even more, "I'm not about to deal with you and your nonsense; so if I have to always look over my shoulder for you...I'm gonna be nettled. I'm here to enjoy some free time with my girlfriend...not punch around some rookie Freshmen in Hero High School."

"Grrr! Who are you calling a rookie?!" Bakugo snapped, only for his head to be pushed into the ground.

"Give…" Chromastone replied simply.

"Oi, Bakugo! Just give up already man! That Senpai has you totally beat!" Kirishima shouted, "Come on, man, you're embarrassing U.A.!"

"LIKE HELL!" Bakugo snapped.

"Fine. Then I'm not letting go," Chromastone simply stated as he pushed his face back down.

"Ah...there goes Bakugo ruining our rep again," Jiro sighed, "Look at this guy and how mature he's handling this...no wonder other schools think so poorly of us. Even the other classes…"

"No one asked any of you! I can beat him...all...on my own!" Bakugo growled, "Let me up and fight me!"

"I already fought you dude…" Chromastone sighed, "Spoiler...I won."

"You've won nothing!" Bakugo growled, arching his head up to reveal the single angriest expression ever.

"Wow...it's the face he made when he won the sports festival…" Makoto whispered.

"Don't sit on me!" Bakugo snapped as Chromastone was now literally sitting on Bakugo's arms and back.

"Anybody want to go next? I'd move but I think this guy would just dangerously explode. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience!" Chromastone spoke to the announcer and the spectators as he bowed his head, "I won't let him cause any trouble."

"We should be apologizing!" Ida shouted, skidding in, "This maniac is our responsibility!"

"THE FUCK ARE YOU CALLING A MANIAC?!" Bakugo snarled.

"You, bomb boy," Chromastone retorted.

"B-BOMB BOY?!"

"Oh...That makes a better Hero name then anything he thought of!" Jiro laughed.

"It...It kind of does…" Momo giggled.

"Hehehe...Bomb Boy!" Ochako laughed.

"Screw all of ya!" Bakugo snapped.

"Yeah, something tells me girls ain't lining up for you, buddy…" Chromastone sighed, "I really am sorry for causing this nonsense, I didn't...think anyone was this...extra outside of the stereotypes in my home country." he turned to Ida.

"Bakugo is just an exception to all rules. We are sorry for his poor behavior towards a Senior Hero Corse student!" Ida declared, "That being said...you truly are amazing!"

"He's Number 1 at our school after all!" Makoto declared.

"He really is!" Noel called out as she joined in on the charade, "Oh! Ano...Vermillion Noel. A pleasure to meet you all…"

"Oh you must be his classmates." Deku spoke up first.

"Hehehe, that and...also that's my boyfriend." Makoto pointed as Chromastone was talking to Ida while pushing Bakugo's face back down.

"The class Couple," Noel added, "The one every couple wishes they could measure up to."

"Such a thing exists?" Ochako asked.

"It's an American High school thing," Makoto sighed, "Nanaya Makoto desu~!" she introduced herself with a wink.

"You're from Japan like us?" Momo blinked.

"Kind of, but I live happily in America with my family," Makoto smiled.

"Ano...Ben-san is very skilled. What is his Quirk's name?" Deku asked.

"Well I would love to tell, but it's kind of a secret." Makoto muttered.

"Secret?" Deku blinked.

"Beat it, Junior," Tsukasa spoke, punting Bakugo away.

"AH!"

"Tsukasa, what are you...!?" Chromastone asked.

"I got tired of this bit. If the kid's not gonna learn, just let him wallow on his own," Tsukasa sighed, "'Sides you know the rules. Time out."

"Time...oh," Chromastone realized before he was engulfed in a flash of red light, changing him back into Ben.

"And this man is...?" Ida asked.

"This is Tsukasa...He invented the watch that lets me...control my Quirk," Ben explained.

"Yo~" Tsukasa greeted, "Kadoya Tsukasa, studying weird Quirks is my game. Making sure they don't blow up is my claim to fame."

"Did you practice that?!" Ben gawked.

"Shut up," Tsukasa argued.

"Da hell's your problem, ner-GAH!" Bakugo gagged as Tsukasa jabbed him in the throat, he coughed and hacked for a bit before Tsukasa pinched the back of his neck...making his body lock up. Then, after a few tense seconds of concern or interest from the others, he fell over face first.

"...Wh-What did you just do?" Ida blinked as he slowly looked at Tsukasa.

"I deal with tons of annoying kids...I know how to make them shut up…" Tsukasa spoke simply.

"Grrr...hrrk…"

"Aw...he's still mad," Tsukasa noted, "He'll be fine; I just shut down his nervous system for a bit."

"Is that your Quirk?" Ida asked.

"Quirk? What Quirk? I'm just a normal human," Tsukasa explained.

"Nothing about you is normal, you quack!" Ben snapped.

"Ben, Honey, we talked about angering the unpredictable mad doctor!" Makoto called out in concern as Tsukasa pinched Ben's neck, making him fall over, "Ah acorns…"

"What kind of skill is this!?" Ida awed only to get pinched as well, "Ah…" he fell over, landing on Bakugo.

"Ahh...Finally...solitude…" Tsukasa whispered as he took in the silence.

"AH! Ida-kun!" Deku panicked.

"How is that man so scary!?" Ochako panicked as the two ran over...just to check on Ida.

"...There are so many different kinds of Heroes out there," the blonde noted, looking up at the sky as she overheard the mayhem going on from the two groups.

"Nerve pinches for everyone!" Tsukasa laughed.

"Why does it feel like Japan produces the bigger weirdos?" Momo sighed in shame.

"Can we really talk given our class?" Jiro sighed.

"Ah Sugoi! How'd you do that!? Show me!" Kirishima asked, jumping down.

"Hmm...well, seems you've already hardened the spot, so…" Tsukasa smirked before jabbing Kirishima in the other side of his neck with a thumb...causing Kirishima to snort and fall over, laughing, "That one took me so many months to figure out from just experiencing it myself."

"He mastered the Laughter Pressure point…" Makoto whispered in awe...and fear, "...run."

"Eh?" Noel blinked at that.

"RUN!" Makoto screamed as she ran off...before coming back, picking up Ben, and ran off once more.


"Yeah...I got the goods as planned," a large figure spoke into a phone, standing above a twitching body as a pool of blood formed underneath them, "...What? All Might is here?...get everyone here. We can handle him no problem…" he assured as he looked at a lone briefcase, "...Of course he would show up…"


"...Seriously where did they end up?" Rex muttered as he and the others were walking around the city, the sun beginning to set in the distance.

"Maybe they finally got some time to themselves," Rook offered.

"Or they got dragged into shenanigans without us for once," Mai noted.

"Given Tsukasa likes to torment them...probably," Naoto sighed.

"And sister is most likely enjoying herself," Lambda guessed.

"I'm sure we'll bump into them eventually," Sari assured.

"HEY GUYS!"

"Speaking of them…" Mai muttered as she looked ahead, seeing Makoto, Ben, and Noel running up to them, "Hey."

"Tsukasa knows the pressure point! He knows the pressure point!" Makoto panicked.

"...What?" Rex raised a brow.

"In the show, Tsukasa has a travelling companion named Natsumi that knows a pressure point that she jabs with her thumb that causes uncontrollable laughter...and the Tsukasa we know knows it!" Makoto explained.

"I think you're overreacting…" Mai muttered.

"No I'm not! You're Underreacting!"

"...Oi," Mai facepalmed.

"But before that, we met some heroes in training," Noel added as she wanted to change the subject, "...and one with a really explosive anger…"

"That's Bakugo from this world's story." Makoto explained, "A fun character to read on paper. Not that fun to talk to."

"Talk? He just screamed at us even when I had him pinned by Chromastone," Ben noted.

"His sweat was made of nitroglycerin," Skurd added before spitting up a tiny explosion, "Not a good taste."

"And you just reminded me of my name here…" Mai groaned as the depressing aura returned once more.

"At least your ability is good for investigations," Skurd noted, "A single touch of your tongue on something involved with a crime and you'll more than likely know the situation faster than any forensics expert."

"...That is true…" Mai muttered, "...but...seriously. Memory Taster?!"

"L-Let's just calm down now…" Sari spoke as she put a hand on Mai's shoulder, "Besides...I think we can finally r-"

"There you guys are!"

"AHH!" Ben, Makoto, and Noel yelped as they ran behind the others.

"I'm going to enjoy this, mainly for the fact that I have no nerves," Skurd chuckled.

"Sure you wanna test that theory?" Tsukasa smirked, now standing behind them as the group jumped back in surprise, "Ahh...perfect. Got you all together...I got something special for you all."

"NOT THE NECK/BOOT TO THE HEAD!" the group panicked in unison.

"Hmm...Maybe I have done this too much," he noted, "...Anyway, I got a gift for you all...hope you got some fancy clothes to wear, because you're heading to the big expo reception later tonight."

"Expo reception?" Rex repeated.

"Think of it as a fancy dinner party for all the big wigs here," Tsukasa explained.

"Oh…"

"...Wait. Why are we invited?" Sari asked.

"Eh. I just had a word with one of the big wigs' daughter, and Ben caught her interest-not in that way, mind you-so...you guys get to enjoy yourselves," Tsukasa explained.

"So...nothing too crazy? Just a big dinner?" Rex asked.

"Indeed," Tsukasa replied, "That girl is your ticket to some good gear though. Her name is Melissa Shield, daughter of David Shield, the guy who made tech and costumes for the number 1 Hero of this world."

"...Ahh~! That means we might get to meet him~!" Makoto realized as her tail wagged in pure excitement.

"The Number One Hero?" Sari pondered, tilting her head.

"He's so awesome!" Makoto cheered, "His punches are so epic, especially his United States of Smash!"

"...By any chance, is he part of the reason why you name your moves after things from space?" Mai asked out of curiosity.

"Nope!" Makoto replied, "I loved watching the stars at night with my pa who'd make up all kinds of neat constellations and silly stories with 'em!" she sighed in fond remembrance, "I think my favorite had to be the Squirrel Queen attacking the Giant Marmoset that wanted to eat her throne-carrying panda that smelled like chestnuts."

"...That explains so much...and yet none at the same time," Lambda muttered.

"...Actually since you mentioned it earlier, babe…" Ben began as he looked over at Makoto, "You said there were movies of this series...you know which one?"

"Hmm?" Makoto blinked at that, "...I think it's the first one...honestly couldn't find the movies due to how rare they were. I mean, this series was well over a hundred, probably two hundred, years old. I got extremely lucky when Kajun found me some ROMs of all the games for it, even."

"So we're more or less going in blind here," Naoto noted.

"Yep. But this will be so much fun!" Makoto beamed, her tail wagging, "And with this being a fancy shindig, there's probably a fancy buffet, too!"

"...Two plates," Mai instantly spoke.

"Hah?!"

"You can have some of mine." Ben spoke up quickly.

"Best boyfriend ever! Of all time!" Makoto declared as she hugged him.

'I really hope one of my jobs with these kids doesn't involve those idiots...or the simulation troopers with them,' Tsukasa thought as her wording made him recall someone else, 'That and I think I'm still on thin Ice with that crazy alien captain…' he scratched his chin.


"Hah. Sorry about that you..guys…" Deku trailed off as he walked out of an elevator, wearing a lightly-dark red suit and a black bowtie, "Ano...where is everybody?"

"Not here yet," Ida replied, wearing a dark-blue suit and a yellow tie, "Does a proper time mean nothing to you people?!"

"Sorry. I w-" Deku began before another elevator door opened, showing Ben, Rex, Rook and Naoto walking in, "Eh? Ben-san?"

"Hm? Oh, you're the kids from that little event earlier," Ben recalled, "Hmm...If I remember right from the scoreboard they had, you're…" he pointed to Deku, "Izuku 'Deku' Midoriya." he then pointed to Ida, "Ida 'Igenium' Tenya." he then pointed to Todoroki, "Shoto Todoroki." he looked over at a young man with blond hair in a formal suit and a very short student with his purple hair resembling grapes, "Fellow classmates of yours that didn't participate in it?"

"Oh right you guys had to work, so you didn't see what happened." Deku realized.

"This is the American Senpai we told you about," Shoto spoke, "The one who beat all our times and pinned Bakugo in one move."

"Really?" the blonde haired young man blinked.

"Yup," Ben nodded before motioning to the others, "These are my classmates Rex, Rook, and Naoto."

"Heyo/Greetings/Yo."

"So then you all attend the same Hero Course together?" Deku asked.

"You bet, but Ben here is somehow always Mister Big Shot," Rex chuckled.

"I guess you could call them friendly rivals," Naoto explained.

"Even the rivals at their school have more manners than our own…" Ida noted.

"I felt like some of that was aimed at me," Shoto spoke.

"I didn't expect America to have such power houses…" the blond young man muttered.

"Why are they also all super tall and handsome…?" the short one complained silently to himself only to get nudged over by the rest of his friends as the elevator opened up.

"Gomen! I'm so late…" a familiar voice apologized before Ochako entered, wearing black stockings, red dance shoes, a pink and white dress, and a black bow with a white flower on the side of her head, "It took me a while to get ready…"

"...best night ever!" the blonde and the short one beamed.

"Apologies for the tardiness," Momo's voice spoke, earning their attention as they saw her and Jiro walking in, the former wearing a lime-green dress and the latter wearing a jacket over a dark purple and pink dressed and a pair of red fingerless gloves as she hid behind the taller girl, "Jiro's feeling shy."

"Jackpot! Jackpot!" the blonde and short one beamed as she raised their fists up into the air each time.

"This is fancier than anything I've ever worn before," Jiro noted as she looked at her outfit, "It feels like a costume…"

"Just be glad you're not in a T-Shirt," the blonde chuckled as he gave a thumbs up.

"Even a jacket can't ruin it," the short one added before he and the blonde suddenly cried out in pain.

"Shut up…!" Jiro huffed as her ear jacks retracted.

"That was a complement…." the blonde groaned as the short one twitched on the floor.

"It's my first time in formal clothing," Ochako muttered, "I borrowed this from Yaoyorozu-san."

"I-It looks good on you." Deku muttered with a small blush as he scratched his cheek a little, "Yeah, really good."

"Oh, D-Deku-kun! You don't have to flatter me…!" Ochako bashfully exclaimed as the elevator dinged.

"Mmm…" Noel fumed at Mai, the former wearing a blue dress with white accents resembling Ochako's with a red ribbon in her hair while the latter was in a navy-blue strapless dress with white shoulder-length gloves and her hair pulled into a bun with two black chopsticks in it.

"Seriously, what did I do wrong?"

"You pushed the wrong button and I sense I missed the ship," Noel whispered, frowning at her.

'...Okay, we really need to get back home soon to put her back into therapy…' Mai thought, laughing awkwardly and trying to ignore the angered look from her friend.

"Oh, you guys finally made it," Naoto noted.

"What took you so long? You girls normally don't follow that trope of girls taking forever to get ready." Rex spoke up.

"If anything, you get ready faster than us sometimes," Naoto agreed.

"Noel senesed 'the ship' and kept pushing me to push the button," Mai sighed, "I hit the wrong one by accident, hence why we're late...but Makoto, Lambda and Sari will be arriving in a bit."

"Wait, let me guess...tail, Bluey...and Sari is just making sure nothing goes horribly wrong," Naoto smiled.

"Last I saw, Sari was bargaining with Bluey to stay home," Mai replied, "I think she was getting him to go down from ten bushels of carrots to five."

"Given what happened last time, it might be for the best if we do not bring Lambda's pet to every event we attend," Rook sighed in agreement.

"Least Bobo's back at our room to look after him," Rex muttered as the elevator dinged once more.

"Please tell me we're just fashionably late and not late-late?" Sari pleaded as she came out of the elevator, wearing a cream and orange dress like Momo's.

"Fashionably late?" Ida repeated.

"You've never heard of that?" Rex asked, raising a brow as a sad Lambda was escorted out of the elevator by an assuring Makoto, the former in a silver strapless dress like Mai's with white shoulder-length gloves.

"It'll be okay, La-chan," Makoto assured, wearing an acorn-colored Chinese dress with a squirrel pattern on it with the entirety of the squirrel resting on her chest and its long tail going down the front of the dress with a gold necklace, brown stockings exposed by the slits in the sides of her dress, and brown shoulder-length gloves, "I'm pretty sure that Bluey will be a-ok. It's night and they're inside; nowhere near a beach at all."

"You're sure?" she asked.

"After last time...I'm sure," Makoto sighed.

"Even more amazing beauties!" the blond haired boy gasped as the grape-haired boy twitched on the floor, a growing pool of red coming from the head area.

'Oh right...Denki 'Chargebolt' Kaminari and Minoru 'Grape Juice' Mineta…The class pervs and the one with a funny Quirk when he overdoes it...and the one who's just a perv. How the hell did he even get into Class 1A anyway?' Makoto thought in annoyance, especially to the smaller of the two, 'I mean, seriously?!' she paused in her mental rant as Ben's fingers went to work, "Mmmm~"

"Had a feeling you were close to mauling one of them," Ben whispered, "Primarily a certain short grape…" he sighed, "Don't worry. I never had a reason to play jealous/defensive boyfriend. But I think it could be fun here."

"...You have Rath, right?" Makoto asked between sighs of content.

"No, he was one of the ten last time," Ben replied, "But I got tons of really heavy hitters this time. This world was kind to me in that regard."

"Ahh...good to know…" Makoto noted with her content smile, her tail wrapping around Ben as she nuzzled against him.

"...no…" Mai sighed, lowering the notepad Noel was holding in her hands.

"Such public affection...I-Is this normal in America?" Ida asked.

"If you're in love, you show it," Rex smiled, "Otherwise how else do you tell people to back off?"

"Ahh...I suppose that makes sense…" Ida muttered.

"So Brave and Bold." Ochako muttered, blushing slightly.

"Norms differ," Deku muttered in agreement, also blushing.

"Move it you two," Sari sighed, gently pushing the two away from the elevator.

"Hey…" Makoto frowned.

"He's saying you're too close and will cause the guest he's carrying to run into you both," Sari explained, thumbing at the elevator.

"Huh? Who's 'he?'" Kaminari asked.

"The elevator. My Quirk also lets me understand machines," Sari explained.

"Eh?" Kaminari blinked, "Talk to machines? Like what, you can control them?"

"Well no...but I can ask them to help, how to fix them, and how they work," Sari explained, "It's only a small part of my Quirk." she then pointed to the elevator, "And they're now dropping off the next person coming to this floor."

"Hm?" Kaminari and Minita both blinked before the elevator doors opened, "?! Woah~!"

"Oh good! I thought I was gonna miss you guys!" Melissa noted as she ran in, wearing a dark purple-blue blouse with a white dress skirt with a black sash wrapped around her waist, a white rose holding it together as she had her hair done up into a ponytail, "Let's get downstairs to the party!"

"The Headliner has arrived…!" Mineta squealed as he cried literal waterfall tears of awe.

"Mineta, I can't take this much beauty! I think I'm gonna die~!" Kaminari exclaimed.

"These tickets were a mistake…" Jiro groaned from the two's actions.

"Wait...Where is a certain annoying adult?" Ben blinked.

"Yo." Tsukasa spoke while walking up behind Kaminari and Mineta, dressed in a black suit with a magenta vest and tie. His hair combed back and glasses over his eyes, "Sorry I'm late."

"Another Ikemen!" Mineta gawked.

"You're damn right, grape stain," Tsukasa smiled, "I was taking care of some stuff before coming here. I was also concerned the literal walking time bomb was gonna jump me…"

"You mean the African Hero Gigaforce is here?" Deku asked, looking around.

"I wish...no, I mean your stupid friend with the bad haircut," Tsukasa sighed.

"Oh…"

"...Actually come to think of it, I didn't see him or Kirishima anywhere," Kaminari admitted while Ida had his phone out

"They aren't answering their phones either," Ida sighed.

"Mr. Short fuse I get...but the Red head looks like he'd answer at the drop of a hat," Tsukasa noted.

"He's already read all of our classmates and understands them…" Jiro muttered.

"Hmm...how strange. You'd think a tech based paradise would have better phone reception," Tsukasa muttered.

"...Lambda?" Noel spoke as Lambda's visor formed over her eyes.

"...Multiple hostiles in the building...communications being cut off," Lambda answered.

"Hostiles?" Deku asked.

"H-How did you...?" Ida blinked.

"We are always prepared," Rook explained.

"Most of us have our gear on us at all times," Sari explained, "Some of us are due for an upgrade, however…" she muttered as Makoto slumped and leaned her head against Ben's shoulder.

"We always go into a place expecting danger," Rex added, "America isn't as peaceful as Japan, according to what Ben tells me." he chuckled.

"Only he knows those kinds of things, we don't care about the political stuff…" Naoto muttered sheepishly.

=This is an announcement from the I-Island Security system= a robotic voice spoke up =We have received a report that an explosive device is hidden somewhere on the I Expo grounds. I-Island will be in High Alert Mode. Your safety is our top priority. Residents and tourists should return to their designated rooms. Anyone remaining on the streets after 10 minutes will be in violation of the law. As a precautionary measure...= shutters began to go down in front of the windows =Most of the main island buildings will now be sealed off I repeat; we have received a…=

"A BOMB!?" Mineta freaked.

"...Negative. I do not detect any explosives within the area," Lambda assured as her visor flashed a few times, "...Hostiles have arrived downstairs...picking up voices…"

"That's….new," Makoto blinked as Lambda tapped the side of her visor, causing her 'eye' to vanish as it was replaced with a reverbing line.

=In case you haven't caught on, security system is now under our control= a voice spoke up, making the group tense up =I know we got a lot of heroes in here, but if you decide to do anything funny, I'll make sure the security bots know the people they're protecting are dangerous criminals. So...play nice, because everyone on this island is now my hostage!=

"These guys are real pro criminals," Ben frowned as Lambda's Visor changed back to normal.

"They got a good scheme set up. This way no one can fight against them," Rex added.

"We're trapped in a hostage situation..." Naoto sighed.

"Truly difficult, negotiations will be nigh impossible at this moment," Rook agreed.

"But we can't just do nothing!" Deku argued.

"Too late, they are already thinking how to save the day," Makoto smiled, "You're lagging behind them in the thought train."

"No way Sari and I can get to all those drones," Rex spoke up.

"We would need to take away their hostages," Rook added.

"Only way that's happening is if we steal control away from them." Ben stated, "We can only assume somehow they hacked in and took control. Rex, think you and Sari could take their control away if we got you to some sort of central computer for the island?"

"It should be possible," Sari nodded with Rex.

"Sugoi...no hesitation. They are already thinking and acting like Pros…" Deku awed along with his classmates.

"The elevator's not working," Jiro noted before Sari put a hand on the button and her eyes glowed.

"With the lockdown in place, there are eight clamps locking the elevator in place, four on top and four on bottom," Sari explained, "And the elevator would like to have it put on record for the maintenance workers later that the one on its lower right corner had a chip in it that's digging into the underside of it."

"So we need a way to get out without the big bads knowing," Makoto pondered, "Hmm….got it. Emergency stairs."

"Melissa, do you know where the central computer for this place is?" Ben asked, "Please don't say top floor…" he pleaded desperately.

"...It's the top floor…" Melissa slowly answered, making Ben slump further.

"I'm the distance, not endurance, type…" Ben muttered sheepishly.

"...Would this constitute as me being held hostage?" Makoto asked.

"I mean technically," Ben muttered, "You are not a full-fledged Hero...and you are on the island...so…" he shrugged with a smile.

"I love loopholes!" Makoto cheered, "Well, when we find them and not when they're used on us. But still!"

"Part of our course study is Criminal and International Law," Mai explained.

"It stinks!" most of them declared.

"Senpai wa sugei!" Kaminari shouted.

"But we need to be careful," Melissa advised, "The security system here is on the same level as the one at Tartarus Prison, where they keep the most dangerous criminals in the world."

"Alright then, so don't go in guns blazing like Die Hard," Ben sighed.

"We're gonna have to stealth it," Makoto added.

"Sari and I can hack our way past most stuff in the way," Rex spoke, "Melissa, you know how this stuff all works. Can you help?"

"Even our technopathic abilities have limits, they are just byproducts of our Quirks and real abilities," Sari added.

"...Of course I'll help," Melissa nodded, "My father is down there..and I want to save him."

"In that case, perhaps we should split the teams into two groups," Rook suggested, "One to help protect Melissa, and the other to help free the hostages."

"...I want to help," Deku spoke up, earning everyone's attention.

"Deku?" Ochako blinked.

"I want to save them."

"You want to go fight those villains?!" Mineta exclaimed in panic.

"Yeah, All Might is here," Tsukasa spoke, "Is what one would say, but Lambda has scanned down there a few times."

"The Heroes have been captured and detained using a tool," Lambda added, "Insurance that they do not interfere."

"So...we have to use a loophole to fight them ourselves," Ben spoke, "True...none of us are Pro's yet. Even us; we're just final year students. But what's the point of being a Hero if you don't act when you're needed the most?"

"No one should have to ask or order you to help." Rex added, "You just let your body begin moving...and enjoy the ride in between jumping into danger and saving someone."

"I am not one to break rules," Rook added, "But innocent lives are in danger. I can not just sit here and put hope in villians keeping their word. In my experiences...most never even intend to."

"Look…" Ben sighed, "We can't ask you to do something you feel is wrong." he looked to the others, "But we've got strength in numbers. And if you don't do something...you will regret it if someone gets hurt."

"If worse comes to worse, just blame us noisy Americans!" Rex grinned.

"So even if they notice something is wrong, they'll probably focus on you guys," Todoroki noted.

"But there is a chance there are some enemies on the top floor," Momo guessed.

"...I say we do this guys!" Ochako shouted as she stood up.

"Uraraka?"

"I can't just sit here and being helpless, not if there's something we can do to help!" Ochako declared, "What's more important is that we're helping people, even if we're not real heroes."

"...Hai," Deku nodded, shooting her a smile as he pumped his fist, "That's exactly the way I feel about things. We'll follow our hearts and save the island!"

"...No, Noel...focus on the task at hand," Noel whispered to herself...trying very hard to not look at the two.

"Right. So first things first...quick summary of what we can do with our Quirks," Ben spoke, "Nothing too detailed, just what it's basically about. Mine lets me turn into ten different forms for ten minutes before needing ten minutes before I can change to another."

"I'm strong and got the strength and agility of a million squirrels!" Makoto grinned while pumping her arm.

"Nanites," Rex simply added.

"Technopath, but I can also bring a little zap," Sari added as she held her thumb and index finger up, a hint of neon green electricity forming within it for a moment.

"A rare and hidden form of martial arts and able to coat my fist in a hard substance," Rook added.

"He hasn't figured a name for it yet," Makoto smiled, "But he has to name it himself or it's not his own!"

"I'm a really good shot," Noel added as she summoned Bolverk, "And my guns technically don't use bullets…"

"Armor…" Lambda answered as she gained her armor, a few phoenix feathers coming off it for a moment before they faded, "?"

"Mine isn't that useful," Mai chuckled, "It more or less just works with my tongue, it's like a tactile telekinesis...but it's not very reliable given how it works. Instead, I rely on martial arts and fight with a spear...which I currently don't have at the moment."

"I can use my blood to create weapons and enhance my attacks," Naoto spoke up as his hair changed colors, "...And before you ask, this happens when I decide to get serious."

"I can control gravity of an object or person I touch, but I can get motion sick if I control something too long," Uraraka said, sheepishly scratching her cheek.

"Ice and…" Todoroki paused for a moment, "...fire…"

"...Super speed," Ida spoke as a serious expression grew on his face, "And I will assist in this!"

"Ida-kun!" Deku smiled.

"I'm in, too," Jiro spoke up, "My Quirk lets me listen in on sounds and vibrations around me if I plug my jacks into something."

"Wha…?!" Mineta began.

"I'm in too!" Kaminari beamed as he shot up, "I can produce a lot of electricity...but…"

"You fry your brain in a sense?" Makoto guessed.

"Um...yeah. How'd you…?"

"Happened to me during a science fair I was helping another friend with. When I came to, I was hanging upside down on the flagpole in a toga made from shower curtains," Makoto replied, 'Come to think of it, I haven't paid Kajun back for that time…'

"We have a support course friend...who...tests projects on us…" Noel muttered.

"With or without our consent…." Mai muttered.

"Still not going Heatblast just to pretend to be a volcano for you girls when she's going into Science Mode," Ben deadpanned.

"Mmm~" Mai, Noel, and Makoto pouted in unison.

"Oh...so you also have one of those types…" Deku muttered in understanding.

"We know your pain…" Ochako muttered.

"My pride and bruised body know far too well," Ida nodded.


"Ngh…" All Might grunted as he tried to free himself, bright blue straps currently wrapped around his body as a few armed thugs were standing watch of him and the other hostages. In his movements, he looked up to notice Deku looking down at him from an empty balcony, '?! Oh no...That look in his eyes...don't tell me,' he mentally realized as he noticed the serious look in Deku's eyes, 'Young Midoriya, please...run away. It's too dangerous!'

'All Might...don't worry. I promise I'll get you all out,' Deku thought, giving All Might a small nod as he began to run off.

'..He's not leaving,' All Might thought as steam began to come off him, 'I know I should be furious that he's ignoring his teacher's wishes…' he paused in his thoughts as he gave a small smirk, 'But who am I kidding? If he didn't act right now, he wouldn't be my successor. I'll just...have to keep this form up...and have faith they can get us out of this situation.'

"What do we have to deal with?" Rook asked as Deku ran over to him and the others in the rescue team in an empty hallway.

"A few armed guards and the heroes tied up," Deku answered before looking back, "I also think...I saw their leader there. A red haired man in an iron mask."

"Does that ring any bells in the realm of big name Villains?" Rook asked.

"Iie. I don't think I've ever seen him before," Deku shook his head.

"Then we can't be sure what his Quirk or capabilities are," Rook sighed, "For all we know, he could be a good hacker of technology." he muttered, "We will need to go in a little more carefully...Ben…"

"What?" Ben blinked.

"Carefully…" Rook repeated.

"It hurts that you think I haven't trained for this impossible scenario...and won," Ben smirked.

"..." Rook looked at him.

"Don't give me the look…"

"I can give any look I so desire."

"It's okay; it's a best friend thing," Makoto explained to Deku, "Their approach is so different, they end up working off each other well. Normally, a few minutes of back and forth, and they've already made a very convoluted and complex plan that we can't hope to predict."

"No explosions," Rook spoke.

"I only promise to try," Ben replied.

"It just sounds like they're arguing…" Deku muttered.

"Oh no. This is just playful banter in the form of 'arguing'," Makoto assured, "You have not seen arguing. If you live in America as long as I have, you see some nasty stuff…" she muttered, "This is just how we talk and handle things. Don't they teach you guys how to handle situations by talking in code? Or disarming Villains using word play to distract and confuse them?"

"That works?" Deku blinked.

"Oh you little bean sprout...how far you have to go in the hero world," Makoto sighed, patting his head.

"No no, New Mexico was not my fault," Ben denied.

"I beg to differ. An entire water tower...just gone," Rook argued/reminded.

"You made a water tower disappear?" Naoto blinked at Ben.

"To be fair...That was Billy's fault when he tried that portal gun on me," Ben replied.

"You didn't have to duck…" Makoto muttered.

"I reacted…"

"So you boys think of something?" Makoto asked.

"Oh yeah, we've just been riffing for the last few lines," Ben laughed.

"I wanted to air out some issues related to past on-field performance," Rook added with a chuckle.

"Ahh…"

"...wait," Jiro spoke up, one of her ear jacks plugged into the floor, "I'm hearing something...they're sending some grunts out...something about a door on the 80th floor being opened."

"Shoot, the others must have triggered something," Ben frowned.

"But who? Sari's with them so there's no way they...would…" Makoto began to trail off, "..."

"...Mineta," Jiro and Makoto deadpanned.


"...just why…?" Sari groaned, her hand over her face as some sirens went off.

"I thought it was an emergency exit!" Mineta panicked.

"But now they're onto us!" Rex snapped.

"Do you see anything?" Momo asked Lambda as the latter used her visor to scan.

"...Two armed men going into an elevator," Lambda answered, "Will arrive in precisely five minutes."

"Then we need to hurry!" Ochako called out.

"Is there another way to go up?" Todoroki asked Melissa as the group began to run.

"There should be another emergency staircase down at the end of the hallway," Melissa answered.

"Then let us hurry!" Ida called out as the group ran faster, only to tense up a bit as steel doors began to close within the hallway, "?! Todoroki!"

"On it…!" the fire/ice user replied as he quickly stomped his foot, sending out a wave of ice that forced the doors to stay open.

"Rex, Lambda," Sari ordered.

"Understood," Lambda replied, grabbing Rex and throwing him over the ice to the other side of the doors as he put a hand on the console at the doors.

"Time to open up and not break the ice," Rex spoke as his nanites infiltrated the door's systems until they slid open and away from the ice that kept them from fully shutting.

"Great job," Sari nodded as the group resumed running, going through the doorway into a large area with various plants and trees growing around the area.

"What is this place?" Ochako asked as they looked around.

"This is a plant factory," Melissa explained, "It's where they research the effects of Quicks on local fauna here."

"With the name 'plant factory,' I thought it'd be for the local flora," Mai admitted.

"No, that's the beast factory on Floor 10," Melissa replied.

"...Uh…" Mai began.

"Oh, I think I get it. It's like Greenland and Iceland, right? They were named that way to trick people into going to Greenland when Iceland is the actual green land," Sari realized.

"Exactly! I…" Melissa began.

"Enemy nearing," Lambda spoke, pointing ahead at a lone elevator as the small screen on top showed a 54 going up in numbers fast.

"GH?!" Mineta tensed up at that.

"Quick. In here," Momo called out quietly, pointing to some nearby bushes.

"Good idea. We can hide there until they pass by for now," Sari nodded.

"Hai," Mai agreed as the group quickly went hiding in the bushes.

"...I got an idea," Rex whispered to the others, "While those guys aren't looking once they're here, we sneak into the elevator and take off before they notice."

"That won't work," Melissa shook her head, "Only authorized people can use the controls, and it's built like a bomb shelter so we can't even break in and try."

"D'oh! Of course we can't go the easy way…!" Mineta hissed.

"Why can't we just hack it?" Rex argued, "Cause if we can't...I'm okay with punching our way out, too."

"Which will alert the big bad and he'll no doubt kill the hostages if we get into a confrontation with them," Sari pointed out.

"Hey I get results; I never said I was the brains," Rex argued.

"Which worked so w-" Sari began before the elevator went off, "?! Shh! Here they come…"

The elevator doors opened up to reveal a tall, lanky man with sideburns and a short round man. The two began to walk out as they looked around the area...all while the group stayed quiet with the U.A kids holding their breaths.

'Oh god...This is so nerve wracking…!' Mineta mentally freaked.

'Don't notice us...please don't notice us,' Momo mentally begged as she kept her eyes closed.

"...It will be okay," Lambda quietly assured them before blinking behind her visor, "...Two new people detected…"

"? Wh…" Sari quietly began.

"Hey! We see ya, you stupid kids!"

"?!" the group tensed up at that.

"The hell you say, bastard?" Bakugo's voice growled, making the group blinked as they peeked out to see the explosive hothead and Kirishima-the former in a red suit with a black vest over it and the latter in a black and dark grey suit and a red tie- standing there.

"Wh...Bakugo? Kirishima?" Ochako whispered.

"What are they doing here?" Ida blinked, "...Did they get l-"

"What are you doing here?" one of the armed men demanded Bakugo and Kirishima.

"Tch! That's what I wanna know too," Bakugo argued, about to take a step forward before Kirishima stopped him.

"Let me take care of this, okay?" the red head whispered to him before turning to the two men, "Sorry about that. We kinda got lost looking for this party. Can you maybe point us in the right direction?"

"How'd they get up to the 80th floor to look for the reception?!" Mineta quietly gawked.

"Hmm...they're both a little stupid…" Ochako muttered.

"Don't lie to me you little shit!" the tall and lanky man snapped, one of his gloves tearing open to show his hand growing in size with webbing growing between his now clawed fingers. He then did a quick downward slash with his enlarged hand, sending out a condensed ball of warped air towards Kirishima.

"?!" Kirishima tensed up in shock as the airball was nearing him, only for a massive wall of ice to block it, "Ahh!"

"This looks like…" Bakugo began before he noticed a panting Todoroki nearby.

"Todoroki?" Kirishima blinked, "What's going on?"

"...I'll inform you after the others get away," Todoroki explained before looking at the others, "You guys get to hacking that elevator. We'll keep them distracted."

"But…" Rex began.

"We'll be right behind you once I clean up this mess these two made!"

"THE HELL YOU SAY!?" Bakugo snapped.

"Hurry!" Todoroki ignored Bakugo.

"He's right," Sari nodded as she and the others got up, "Let's hurry!"

"Seriously, what's going on here?" Kirishima asked as Sari and the others ran off.

"You didn't hear the broadcast alert?" Todoroki raised a brow before shaking his head, "Nevermind. Some villains have taken over the tower."

"?! Shit, are you serious?" Bakugo tensed as Kirishima's eyes widened.

"I'll tell you more when I can," Todoroki stated, noticing the wall of ice beginning to rumble, "For now, get ready...and be on your guard."

"Tch! I know that…!" Bakugo growled as he, Todoroki, and Kirishima stood ready just as an opening was made in the ice wall, the taller of the two armed men's hands now both enlarged and clawed.

"So you kids want to pick a fight huh?" the short one asked before he crouched over, growling out as his cloths began to tear, "Grr...let's see how tough you really are!" he roared out as he grew in size, becoming purple as the muscles on his arms and hands grew bigger.

"Oh what the fuck…" Bakugo muttered.

"GRAH~!" the large behemoth snarled as he charged, batting away the ice wave Todoroki sent at him as he reeled his fist back and aimed at Bakugo.

"?! Bakugo, move!" Kirishima called out, quickly pushing Bakugo out of the way as his skin began to harden up. He then grunted out when the big purple behemoth punched him, sending him crashing into a nearby building.

"Kirishima!" Bakugo exclaimed.

"Move!" Todoroki shouted, causing Bakugo to quickly fire off an explosion at the ground to send him into the air seconds before a wave of ice went where he had been towards the slimmer of the two villains.

"Rah! Rah!" the slimmer of the two yelled as he sent out two air balls, destroying bits of the ice as he quickly dodged through an opening, "Heh...you boys know how to fight, don't you?"

"Where'd you come from?" the purple burly one demanded.

"Heh. Like we'd tell a couple of weakass villains…!" Bakugo countered, smirking as a small explosion went off in his open hand.

"Why would we tell you anything?" Todoroki frowned at the villains.

"AH! I already said that idiot!" Bakugo snapped.

"I can talk for myself!" Todoroki argued.

"Are you punks seriously ignoring us?!" the two villains snapped.

"SHUT UP!"


"So you got details on those intruders?" a large man with red hair asked into a communicator, his head covered in an iron mask.

=Yeah. Some kids from UA and some foreigners= a voice responded on the other end =What's worse...they're all on the hero courses, so they're well trained enough=

"..tch. Chances are those kids are going to try and restore the security system," the masked man frowned, "You send out some security drones on the 80th floor...and send a few out in case there's any more of these 'rats' sneaking around.'

=Got it, boss=

"Then raise any barriers from floors 100 to 130 and let them pass freely," the masked man added, earning silence from his subordinate, "...Just do what I say!"

"Gh…" All Might growled out upon hearing that, more steam starting to come off him as he glared at the masked man. He then noticed something in the corner of his eye, making him turn to see something lightly poking out from above, "?"

"I got the target," Noel quietly whispered, her body to the ground as her guns took the form of a sniper rifle, "Kaminari-san has set the 'emp' bullets for the lights…"

=Good. The moment the lights go off, we send someone out to distract the big guy and the remaining grunts= Ben whispered into a communicator in her ear =Then me and the others can quietly get the hostages and the other heroes out while they're busy=

"Understood," Noel whispered, "I'm ready, just waiting for the go."

=It's a good thing you're the best shot...like ever=

"Yes, yes I am." Noel replied simply.

=And that's my cue…= Naoto whispered =...odd how Tsukasa isn't here, but...I drew the short straw, so may as well…=

=...Dude, our senpais are so cool= Kaminari whispered in the background.

=Shh!= Jiro hissed.

=Sorry…=

=3…..2….1…= Rook began to count down as Noel cautiously took aim =...Now!=

"Hmm?" the masked man blinked before the lights began to go off one by one, "?! Nande…?!" he growled out before turning his communicator back on, "What's going on h-" he tensed when a high pitched squeal went off, "Tch! Someone must've sent out an EMP wave….but who…"

*CRASH!*

"Sorry not sorry!" Naoto's voice shouted as the sound of glass breaking could be heard, followed by a door slamming open.

"What's…" one of the heroes in the room whispered before tensing as a figure appeared before him, "!?" he looked up at the eyes of Shadow Edge, who had a finger to his mouth area before cutting the binds off, "..." the hero nodded as he went to unbind another.

"What the hell? Who are you?" the masked man growled as he looked around for the intruder in the shadows.

"Just a passing through hero-in-training," Naoto replied.

"...good. Then you saved me the trouble of terminating one of you brats!" the man snapped.

"Gonna have to catch me first!" Naoto challenged, now standing in the doorway as he ran out.

"We'll go after him, boss!" one of the grunts shouted, "You…"

"Now...I like to enjoy a little hunt," the masked man grinned, "Besides...we have our backup to look after the hostages anyway."

"?" Shadow Edge raised a non-existent brow at that as the masked man and his subordinates ran off.

"Quite ominous, no?" Skurd whispered, earning a nod from the alien ninja who resumed undoing the binds on the heroes.

'...What back up was he…' All Might began before faintly noticing a larger figure approaching Shadow Edge at high speed, "?!"

Just as Shadow Edge was about to undo another hero's bindings, he tensed up before quickly becoming a blur, only to 'grunt' when a larger figure's hand grabbed him. As the lights began to turn back on...it revealed a rather...hulking, beastly-looking, black-skinned creature with its brain exposed.

"Oh, now that is reminding me of Dr. Animo if he decided to work on himself," Skurd noted.

"?! A Nomu…" All Might whispered with wide eyes.

Shadow Edge struggled to get out of the Nomu's grip before it tossed him, slamming him through the glass to the upper floor as he rolled along the ground.

"Eh? Wh-" Noel began before the Nomu suddenly landed before her, "?!"

Just as the Nomu was about to slam its fist down on her, it quickly jumped back from a few energy arrows from Rook's Proto-Tool.

"What on Earth is that?" Rook questioned as Deku and Kaminari helped Shadow Edge up.

'?! Ah crap! A Nomu!? HERE?!' Makoto mentally panicked.

"Another one?" Deku asked with wide eyes, "M-more than one of these kind?"

"What a pain…" Tsukasa's voice sighed as several cards slashed the Nomu's arm, making it pause before grasping its arm in pain as it began bleeding, "So this world does have something different...I hoped it'd be similar…" he whispered to himself as he walked into the room.

"Wh-Where were you?!" Makoto hissed as Tsukasa walked past her.

"Getting ready in case shit hit the fan, just like right now," Tsukasa countered as the Nomu roared at him, "Aw what's wrong? Upset by a little card trick?" he pulled out a strange magenta, blocky device with a clear circular center, "You'll be more upset with this next one." he put it to his waist before a silver belt formed from it along with a book-like holder on his left hip that he opened and pulled out a single card from it, "I had hoped to not be public about this...I'm gonna cause a heck of a storm. But...ah well...I love chaotic nonsense."

"Wait...what are you going to do? You're Quirkless, aren't you?" Deku asked.

"..." Tsukasa smirked at that, "So what if I am? Doesn't mean I can't be a hero when it matters most, right?"

"?!" Deku's eyes widened at that, a memory playing in his head for a moment as he though back on rescuing Bakugo from a slime-like villain, "...No, it doesn't, Kadoya-san."

"Then stand back and watch as I take care of the tall, dark, and gruesome here," Tsukasa smirked as he held the card up to the Nomu, the face of it facing the beast.

"Now is the time you decide to be awesome?!" Makoto gawked.

"Henshin," Tsukasa ignored as he flipped the card around to hold it in his thumb and pointer finger before slotting the card into his belt and closed it.

=KAMEN RIDE: DECADE=

Silvery veil-like images appeared around Tsukasa, each one seeming to be in a different armor of sorts, before they slid together and collided with Tsukasa, forming his armor from the other world, but missing the magenta colors. Ten holographic red cards emerged from the buckle and proceeded to slam into his forehead, forming the strange helmet that quickly filled in all the magenta.

"Wha.../So cool~!" Jiro gawked while Kaminari awed with stars in his eyes.

"While I'm like this...call me Decade. Kamen Rider...Decade," he stated to the UA students before holding his hand up to block the Nomu's punch, "Gonna take more than that to hurt this suit!" he spun around and backhanded it across the face. He then grunted as he grabbed it by the neck...before tossing it through several walls, "I'll...uh...fix that after…" he muttered, "Focus on saving the Pros and going after the Big Bad Evil Guy. I'll handle ugly."

"How'd he do that?!" Kaminari shouted in awe as Decade dashed after the Nomu, "That suit made him crazy super strong!"

"Focus on that later. For now, let us hurry and free the hostages," Rook advised as he and Noel hurried downstairs.

Shadow Edge nodded in agreement before winching, holding his midsection in pain as he fell to a knee.

"Babe?" Makoto blinked as she got down to his level, "You okay?"

"I think that big brute managed to break a rib or two," Skurd replied, "This form's species are very fast, but they're also quite fragile...a sort of speedy-glass cannon if you will."

"Any chance he has Goop or, ugh...Swampfire in his roster at the moment?" Makoto asked.

"Just a moment," Skurd replied, "Hmm...let's see...let's see...this one...no, not there...ooh, haven't had that one in a bit...ah, yes. The one you call 'Goop' is available. Let me just tap this and..." a green flash went off as Skurd squeaked from the UFO above Goop, "I did not expect to be so high!"

=Oh...my everything hurts...but less so than before…= Goop groaned =Also...yay...ability to talk...ow…can your radio speech box somehow hurt?=

"You just focus on fixing yourself up," Makoto patted his head.

=Thanks babe…=

"Hopefully the others are okay," Noel whispered in concern.

"I am sure they'll be fine," Rook assured, "Now come. Let us help free the other hostages and heroes."

"Right." she nodded.

"America has some awesome people…" Kaminari awed still amazed.


"Okay...everything seems okay so far," Sari whispered as she and the others stepped out of the elevator.

"Lucky that all happened." Rex muttered.

"...no. This seems too easy," Momo frowned a bit.

"Eh?"

"They could've shut down the elevator on us at any time, and yet we faced no such issue during the ride up here," she pointed out.

"Ah...I guess the guys are right...we do tempt fate too much. Manly boys…" Sari sighed.

"Y-hey…" Rex complained at that.

"So there's a chance they could've laid a trap up ahead for us," Ochako noted, "...La-chan?"

"Scanning…" Lambda whispered as her visor flashed, "...Sentries approaching. Intent on blocking our path and capturing us."

"So they must know we're in the Hero courses," Ida noted, "...and we don't have Kaminari here to shut them off…"

"We have Sari." Rex pointed out.

"Affermitve, her accuracy has improved vastly," Lambda agreed.

"Ahh...that's right! She mentioned having electricity based powers as well," Ida realized before looking at Sari, "Think you can deactivate the security drones ahead?"

"Deactivate...overload...explode…" Rex muttered.

"I'll have you know I've learned to control the energy output." Sari huffed, "It's just it seems to have a sense of irony and attacks all idiot boys indiscriminately."

"I-hey!" Rex snapped at that, "I…!"

"Focus," Lambda spoke, walking past them as she approached a nearby door, "The moment I open this door, Ida-san will throw Sari into here…" she stated before looking at Melissa, "Anything we should know about the security drones?"

"Just hope you have a good enough jolt to shut them off," she advised, "They can survive even 2 million volts of electricity, but it's enough to temporarily shut them off…"

"I guess I'll have to turn it up then." Sari sighed, "It always extends too far when I go that high though...so in advance...sorry, boys~" she smiled.

"My body is technically insulated with my ability…" Rex chuckled.

"How good for you!" Mineta panicked.

"Ah, just take it like a man." Rex chuckled.

"...may as well protect ourselves as well," Momo spoke up as her back glowed a bit before a large tarp came out of it, "This will protect us from any incoming bolts of electricity."

"Don't worry. I promise not to hit you guys," Sari assured once more as she grabbed onto Ida's arms while Lambda gripped the door, "But in advance...again, sorry."

"It is fine," Ida nodded as he looked at Lambda, who nodded in turn as she opened the door, revealing a faintly lit room with various droid-like robots in red armor. His bottom pant legs then burst as a set of exhaust pipes came out of his calves, "Hold on!" he roared out as the pipes suddenly burst to life, propelling him faster and faster as he spun Sari at a high speed before tossing her quickly into the room.

The drones quickly took notice of the intruder as they began to gather, a part of them opening up as they fired off sets of cables at the half Cybertronian.

"Sorry, little guys! But I need you to go down for a bit!" Sari called out as she landed in the center of them, holding her hand up, sparks forming between her fingers as she pressed them together...before snapping them.

*BZZT!*

The entire hall lit up with the flash of electricity surging through the air. The drones all fell over, sparking randomly as the lightning lingered around in the air for a moment. Everyone slowly peeked when the buzzing sound died down to see the drones all prone, and powerless.

"See? Told ya I got the hang of it," Sari smirked as she crossed her arms and looked at the group...mainly at Rex, "Also didn't zap ya, so...that's a big plus!"

"Okay I admit…" Rex blinked before turning to see Mineta laying on the ground, zapped and sputtering, "HAH!?"

"Does her ability have a sense of irony?" Momo muttered.

"..." Sari looked at her snapping hand, 'Well, it is power inherited from the leader of a tribe of desert Amazons…'

"Well it still worked regardless." Ida spoke up, "Amazingly well. Your ability has a far greater range then even Kaminari-kun."

"Lot of practice," Sari assured, "Mainly on the aiming part. Range was kinda fast to pick up. But enough talking; we've got a security system to take back control of."

"We're on a clock," Rex sighed, "If they knew we're up here, they know what we're going for. Meaning now we've got a timer to worry about. When it reaches zero, they'll be up here with more guys, and have the place on lock down."

"If you're gonna say scary stuff, don't smile about it, Rex..." Sari sighed.

"Oh come on...How often do you get such an exciting rescue mission?" Rex smiled, "It's been a while since I had so much danger in one day and I get to actually do something about it."

"True...but still…"

"More drones arriving from below," Lambda spoke up as she looked down, "...to the left...right...the room is surrounded."

"Are you kidding me?!" Mineta panicked as he shot up.

Don't worry. I can j-" Sari began before a set of cables wrapped around her, "?! Oh you-ahh!" she yelped as she was tugged over by a set of drones, only for Lambda's blades to cut them, "Thanks, Lambda…"

"More incoming," Lambda spoke, standing ready as more of the security drones were heading towards them.

"I got it," Momo spoke, pulling out a flare from her chest as she untwisted the top. She then quickly threw it as the drones were nearing them, the flare letting out dust that caused the drones to swerve, "We can jam their communications with these!"

"Okay, I know you've demonstrated your Quirk before, but that is pretty awesome," Rex complimented as he accepted some offered flares.

"Take that!" Ochako shouted as she and Melissa began to throw flares of their own, enveloping the walkway in the dust as more and more drones began to swarm into the room.

"...Wait. I got an idea!" Mineta shouted, grabbing the grapes on his head as he began to throw them, more growing in their place as he threw them at the walkway, "Let's see those robots get past these!"

"...Uh…" Mai began before noticing some of the drones stopping in their tracks the moment they came into contact with the grapes, "...Okay that's u-" she began before some of the drones began to jump over the stuck ones, "...Nevermind!"

"They're designed to adapt to situations that may prevent them from doing their duties," Sari noted, 'talking' to her bindings that were part of the island's security system.

"...Then our only way through is to run through them," Ida frowned.

"I never thought I'd complain about a piece of tech being so well made," Rex sighed, "Well...no...I have, but that was just 'cause someone made tech I couldn't hack."

"Less talky, more getting me out of these binds and beating up robots!" Sari shouted.

"We're going to have to split up," Ida noted before pushing Rex over to Melissa and Ochako, "Rex-san, you need to go with Melissa-san to the security system."

"Say what?"

"He's right!" Sari grunted, struggling to get out of the binds, "With me like this, you need to help with the security system!"

"Will hold the line," Lambda added as she flew up to avoid the incoming ropes fired at her, "You two hurry."

"Fine," Rex nodded, "Ochako, come with me and Melissa."

"Eh? M-Me?!" Ochako gawked.

"We might need your Quirk if the space is too small for my flight builds," Rex explained.

"Oh...hai!" Ochako nodded.


"Okay...I think I lost them," Naoto panted as he leaned against the wall, "That should buy the others time to get the heroes out…"

"Status report…" the red haired man's voice spoek up, making Naoto tense as he peeked out the corner a bit to see him with his back turned, "I see...three of those punks got away, but you were able to get the rest."

=Heh. That's what they get for thinking they could take us= his subordinate smirked =But there should be more aside from the ones that got away=

"...So that's their game plan," he frowned in realization, "...Change of plans. I'm heading to the control room. Defend it until I can get there."

'?! Shit...he's already onto us,' Naoto mentally cursed as the man began to walk off, 'Damn it...Don't have time to call the others...I need to buy them time!' he thought as his hair flashed to white, "HEY ASSHOLE!"

"...heh. There you are," the red haired man smirked as Naoto ran out of his hiding spot.

"I'll knock that stupid mask of y-" Naoto began before the metal in the floor suddenly sprung to life, makign him tense up before it slammed on top of him, "Gah!"

"Rather wreckless of ya," the man smirked, moving his hand off the wall as he walked over to a struggling Naoto, "Especially now that the jig is up for you and your fellow rookies…"

"Y-You can bend metal?" Naoto asked.

"It's my Quirk: Metal Manipulation," the man stated, "By making contact with any metal surface, I can manipulate and reshape it to my whim...perfect for capturing punks like you."

"Just...don't start calling yourself Magneto…" he grunted.

"Oh ho. We've got a jokester here…" the man grinned, "Too bad because you and your little friends aren't gonna be around after tonight…"

"What are you...even after anyway?!" Naoto snapped before the man grabbed his head.

"Let's just say we were hired by someone to retrieve something...but that's all you're gonna learn, boy!" the man shouted as he slammed Naoto's head against the floor, "Now stay there and rest...your buddies are gonna join you soon enough…"

'Ugh...Sonuva…! Good going, Naoto...Good going…' Naoto mentally snarked, the man letting go of his head as he stood up and began to walk off.

"Granted if they're still alive after th-" the man began before an explosion went off near him, "?!"

"Gh…!" Decade grunted as he shot out of the resulting dust cloud, skidding along the ground as he began to slow down, "...Okay. You're a bit tougher than I thought…"

The Nomu roared as it shot out of the dust load, fist reeled back as it fastly approached the Kamen Rider, only for him to dodge out of the way as he jumped to the side.

"...Tch. Another rat," the man frowned as he quickly activated his communicator, "There was one more we didn't take into account...and he has the Nomu busy, so send out some drones to take care of those rats we missed."

"Seems you can take a normal punch from me," Decade noted before opening his 'book' and pulled out another card, "But what about a world-breaking punch?" he flicked it around and inserted it into his Driver, closing it shut.

=KAMEN RIDE: KUUGA=

His armor flashed before it changed. He was now in a black bodysuit with brilliant red armor on his torso sculpted to resemble muscles with a gold crest on the upper chest going down the middle of it to make a trim underneath the 'muscles,' gold guards on his knees with a ruby on the center of them, gold anklets with the right leg covered in extra gold plating, red and gold armor on his lower arms going into gold bands with ruby gems on them, and a new mask that was primarily black with gold detailing including gold bands under his large red 'bug eyes' and a strip of gold shaped to resemble the horn of a stag beetle with a red gem in the center of the forehead.

The Nomu growled in confusion before charging, only to get a punch from Decade's new form that sent it flying back and through several walls. It grunted, coming to a stop...only for its eyes to widen as a drop kick to its chest sent it flying once more. Decade-Kuuga grunted, landing with one hand and flipping around to jump back to his feet. He then spun around and kicked a mass of metal that tried to capture him, sending it flying as shards towards the one who manipulated them. More metal quickly formed a barrier to block the shards only for the man to sweat a bit as the shards had barely been stopped before they could reach him.

"Eh? Not bad," D-Kuuga replied before swinging his fist up and into the Nomu's face as it rushed him from behind. He then slammed his elbow into its stomach, making it double over, "Give me a few seconds to talk, will ya!" He grabbed it by the neck and slammed it down on his shoulder with a loud cracking sound filling the air, the monster gagging in pain as it fell over, its body flopping around for a bit, "Don't worry. If I'm right, your spinal column will fix itself in a bit."

"D-Did you just shatter its neck!?" Naoto gawked.

"Maybe…" D-Kuuga replied with a shrug.

"Dude!"

"Oh relax...it's alive, isn't it?" He spun around and punted the Nomu away, sending it upwards this time and through several floors and walls.

"...I...guess I can't argue that…" Naoto muttered before he noticed something, "...ah shit. He got away."

"Hmm?"

"The guy behind this raid!" Naoto shouted as he tried to get out from underneath the metal floor, "They're already onto our plan…!"

"Don't worry about it," D-Kuuga spoke as he grabbed the metal floor and bent it so Naoto could get free, "As long as All Might and the green haired kid are okay...nothing to worry about."

"Huh? Deku? Why?"

"That kid goes on to become the world's greatest Hero, with a power that will shake the very world," he explained, "He's more or less Anime Spider-Man."

"Wait...seriously?"

"I kid you not…." he replied with a nod; he then suddenly kicked his leg out and struck the Nomu again, hitting it in the face and stopping its momentum as it rushed him again, "You just don't learn, huh?" he sighed, "Go help the others. As long as you get All Might free, and Deku is okay enough to use his full power, the day is saved."

"Gotcha," Naoto nodded as he quickly ran off, "And watch out for their leader! He can control metal!"

"Don't worry...this armor isn't metal," D-Kuuga replied as he spun around to land a roundhouse kick to the Nomu before grabbing its face...and smashing it into the ground hard, "And stay down!"

The Nomu roared at him in response before it contorted its arm, making it turn towards D-Kuuga before punching him away. D-Kuuga hit a wall with the Nomu quickly getting up and rushing him. It unleashed a powerful punch, which hit the Rider with a loud metallic clang filling the air as the wall exploded into a cloud of dust. The Nomu blinked before punching rapidly, each time the same ring filling the air. After a moment...its fists stopped as it looked at its now swollen hands and wrists from hitting something too hard. D-Kuuga's head appeared in the smoke...but his eyes were now purple. The smoke faded to reveal his armor was now silver with purple accents, a gold spark raced along the armor before it all turned pure purple with golden accents.

=FORM RIDE: KUUGA TITAN!=

"Took me by surprise there for a bit, but…" D-Kuuga Titan began as he cracked his neck a bit, "My turn…"


"Last one…" Kaminari spoke as he and Rook finished freeing the last of the trapped heroes.

"Just in time too," Jiro spoke up, her ear jacks plugged into the wall, "I'm hearing something coming our way...something mechanical."

"They must be onto us," Deku guessed as he and All Might looked back at the screen.

"So now we're gonna be swarmed by robots?" Kaminari asked.

"Eh…" Makoto shrugged.

"There's a chance…" Ben grunted as he forced himself up, "We can take them."

"You just got your ribs broken and you can still fight...What is he? Some kind of perfect American Hero course student?" Jiro muttered.

"A Hero can patch himself up after the work is done. But if you're good enough, you never need to get patched up," Ben chuckled, "If you're not risking something, you're not really doing the job of a Hero."

"Surprisingly well said," All Might chuckled, "That Shonen doesn't talk like a student or beginner...He sounds like a veteran pro," he whispered to himself.

"Hai…" Deku nodded.

"You sure you can keep going?" Skurd questioned Ben, "You were only Goop for a few minutes."

"Please...I've taken worse…" he replied, "I once kept going for days with a broken arm and no sleep. This...This is nothing!"

"...Yeah no. Once the Omnitrix is recharged enough, you're going back to Goop to finish healing," Makoto stated.

"Yes dear," Ben slumped.

"Eh!?" Kaminari gawked at that.

"So even a total lunatic can be controlled. There's hope for you yet, Kaminari," Jiro smirked.

"Wh-?! Oi!"

"You're right...you'll never find a girl willing to fix all that," she chuckled.

"Now you're just being hurtful!"

"Told ya jokes help," Makoto smiled, "Totally helps to destress!"

"You're right, I'm not even worried as much," Jiro chuckled.

"Oi oi…" Kamanari deadpanned before a drone skidded straight into the room, "?!"

"Oh!" Noel gasped before shooting it, "Sorry!"

Just as more of the drones began to swarm into the room, one of the freed Heroes tackled into a few and began to force them out.

"GH! Get the hostages out…! A few of us will stay to hold these things back!"

"There's more...coming from here!" Rook called out from another door, him and another Pro Hero grunting as more and more drones began to tackle the door.

"They must be trying to block the way out!" Jiro grunted as she and Kaminari were doing their best to hold another door teh drones were trying to get through.

"We need to move," Makoto spoke, "If we can take down the leader while our other team takes care of the computer..."

"Then we can deal with the drones attacking everyone," Ben added as his Omnitrix change back to green, "And just in time too…"

"Question is if you have any of your other speedy forms aside from Shadow Edge," Makoto muttered

"It seems I got mostly power types besides the two exceptions...my dream roster almost...hahaha…" Ben awkwardly chuckled.

"Tsukasa randomized to teach you creativity...but you get what you want...and now can't do a thing." Makoto muttered, "Your lucky your cute, loveable, and loyal...cause your a pretty dumb boyfriend…"

"Hey…" Ben complained a bit before grunting, "Still hurt…"

"So you can't power your way through this," Makoto pointed out.

"You made your point already, dear…" Ben muttered sheepishly.

"All women have the right to hold this over men." Makoto argued.

"Unfair!" Ben and Kaminari gawked.

"But also the right to be concerned," Noel added before another attempted slam form the drones caused her to yelp.

"Right! Just turn Goop and sweep them over in a wave of slime!" Makoto exclaimed.

"Right!" Ben hsouted, activating the Omnitrix and pressing down on it quickly, engulfing him in green light as it blinded the room for a moment.

Both Jiro and Kaminari grunted when the drones forced their way through the door, two preparing to bind them before Goop quickly swept over the two hijacked machines.

=They don't do well in slime…=

"Good now how do we deal with them?" Makoto muttered.

=I could digest them, Goop is an acidic ambush hunter…= he muttered.

'Acid...Like Mina?!' Kaminari thought in surprise.

"Just how many forms does Ben-san have?" Deku pondered.

"A l-kya!" Noel yelped when one of the drones wrapped the rope around her, making her fall back as it began to drag her over...only for Rook to slice the rope with his Proto-Tool and kicked the drone back, "Thanks…"

=Even sweeping them up it's a lot!= Goop spoke, moving along the ground and washing the drones away in his slimy body.

"At best, he could probably drive enough away for an opening!" Skurd shouted from atop the UFO, "And even then it's narrow!"

'...Then we need a big enough strike to force them away,' Deku thought as he unrolled his sleeve, revealing a red gauntlet around his wrist.

"Hey hey! Hands off the tail!" Makoto snapped, grabbing the rope of a drone that bound her tail before slamming it into another, the movement causing the Sheikah Slate to fall out of her tail, "Ah! My…" she began before blinking...before she ended up facepalming, "Oh my god...How could I forget about that?!"

"What?" Kaminari pondered as she picked it up.

"A little invention another friend of ours made," Makoto explained, 'Technically repaired, but semantics!' she mentally exclaimed as she quickly tapped it, causing the drones swarming into the room to suddenly stop, "Now hit 'em!"

"Eh?"

"Hit 'em as hard as you can!"

=...oh~! That's right!= Goop realized before looking at Deku =Hey! Hit the ones at the exit with a strong punch!=

"Eh?" Deku blinked before it dawned on him, 'It somehow suppresses time...and any kinetic force that builds up during the freeze gathers up, meaning…' he gave a nod in response before charging, gripping his fists as a green electric aura began to cover him, 'One for All...Full Cowling!'

"Should they be flashing like this?" Rook questioned, using his weapon to smack a few of the frozen robots as they rapidly flashed red.

"Yup!" Makoto added as she smashed one into another, '...wait. Is Deku about to use a…!'

"SMASH!" Deku shouted, using his fist with the red gauntlet on it to punch one of the drones, and right on time as the moment they all stopped flashing...before they all suddenly were sent flying back with the ones that got hit shattering upon crashing into the others.

=Whoa...short package...big power= Goop awed as Makoto looked on with stars in her eyes.

'It doesn't hurt...my arm's fine too,' Deku thought as he looked at the hand he punched with.

"..well don't just stand there!" Skurd shouted to the Heroes in the room, "Get these hostages to safety while you have the chance!"


"...so we just need to go up there, right?" Rex asked as he, Mellissa and Ochako looked up at an iron walkway, the trio standing in an outdoor section of the building with large fans surrounding the area.

"That's right," Mellissa nodded, "If we can just get up to that Emergency exit…"

"Oh I sense there is a but coming…" Rex sighed, "...it's the fans, isn't it?"

"Yeah…" the blonde nodded once more, "Chances are they'll see us coming and try to activate them."

"...then we need to hurry," Ochako spoke, "Mellissa-san, grab onto Rex-san please."

"Got it," Mellissa nodded as she grabbed onto Rex.

"Ok. So...now wh-" Rex began before Ochako touched him, causing him to suddenly start floating up, "Woah!"

"Oh! ...wh-what's the plan here?" Mellissa asked in slight panic at the sudden floating.

"I think we're taking a shortcut!" Rex yelped, holding Mellissa in one of his arms as he looked down.

"Try not to move so much!" Ochako called out before she heard something, prompting her to turn around to see a bunch of Drones starting to gather from a nearby doorway, "?!"

"Welp...this seems like one of those moments we will never tell anyone if we make it out alive." Rex sighed, "Cause our parental figures will murder us worse then these robots if they knew."

"Very true…" Mellissa admitted before seeing the drones heading towards Ochako, "?! Oh no...Ochako, release your quirk and run away!"

"I can't!" Ochako called out as she stood her ground, "If I do that, then we can't save everyone!"

"But…"

"Just go!"

"You heard the lady!" Rex grunted, activating his hoverpack as he began to float up faster.

Ochako said nothing as she looked back at the drones, one zooming in on her as it prepared to fire off its ropes to bind her. The brunette tensed as she shut her eyes, preparing for what might come until…

"SHINEI!"

*BOOM!*

"?!" Ochako tensed as she began to open her eyes, seeing Bakugo standing there as the drone was on the floor, "B-Bakugo!"

"Leaving me out of the fun, huh?!" Bakugo snapped, about to aim at another drone before a wave of ice suddenly engulfed a few.

"None of this is fun." Todoroki sighed, "Our friends are in danger."

"Ah? Why do I care?"

"Oh right...you don't have friends…" Todoroki replied blankly.

"OI!"

"But you guys are a good combo!" Kirishima argued, his arms hardening as he knocked some drones away.

"AS IF!" Bakugo snapped.

"Uraraka, are you alright?" Todoroki asked as he stopped next to Ochako.

"Hai," Ochako nodded, "Rex-san is helping to take Mellissa to the top floor right now."

"I noticed," Todoroki whispered before creating another ice wave, taking out more of the drones, "We're gonna stop these guys right now!"

"Well at least we got b-ahh!" Rex yelped as he was suddenly blown away by one of the fans and towards another.

"Oh no!" Ochako gasped.

"Bakugo, aim the propeller at them!" Todoroki called out as he quickly took his jacket off.

"I SAID DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" Bakugo snapped...yet complied anyway as he created an explosion at one of the lower fans, causing it to tilt far out of place.

"Whatever you guys got planned, do it now!" Rex shouted as he tried to get out of the fan's current.

Flames began to engulf one of Todoroki's arms before he threw it out, unleashing a wave of fire at the fan. Before REx could register what was happening, the fan suddenly forced him back as he and Mellissa were sent flying right towards the walkway above.

"Phew! Thanks, amigo!" Rex called out.

"Ahh! We're gonna crash into that wall!" Mellissa cried out, making Rex turn to see they were flying right towards a wall.

"I got it!" he called out, forming one arm into a Slam Fist before it began spinning as he punched into and through the wall, leading them straight inside as Rex quickly landed on his feet just as Ochako put her fingertips together, "Phew...we're in. Y-" he began before quickly jumping back from a lunge, "?!"

"No good brat!" one of the terrorists snapped, one of his arms forming a metal blade as he swung at Rex and Mellissa.

"Ok…!" Rex grunted, shifting his free hand into his BFS as he blocked the blade, "What are you guys even after?!"

"SHUT UP!" the man snapped as he forced Rex back, his other arm forming a metal blade as he swung at the Nanite user, "Don't pretend to be some big shot hero like your revolting brat friends!"

"Uh-huh...yeah…" Rex lifted his BFS as the tip unfolded into a buzzsaw, "Let's deal with this simply, you want some of this, or you wanna run?" he swung the weapon and sliced apart his blades, "One more?" he sliced them even shorter, "One mo' time?" He shaved them shorter again, "Little more off th t-" he began before the man suddenly grabbed him and threw him through the opened hole, prompting him to dismiss his weapon as he grabbed onto the ledge, "Really?" he sighed.

"Cocky little shit…!" the man began, about to stop on Rex's hand before Mellissa grabbed his arm, "Gh! Get out of my way!" he snapped as he knocked her away with his elbow, "Will you...wait, what's…" he looked down to see a metallic tentacle around his ankle.

"I'm sorry I am legit not in the mood for games, for the record...I can fly." Rex sighed as he yanked him out...and flicked him into the distance, "I...I'm sure someone will get him." he shrugged before using his weapon to pull himself back in, "You okay, Mellissa?"

"I am…" Mellissa assured, grunting a bit as she got up onto her knees, wincing a little as she noticed a cut on her arm, "The cut's not too bad…"

"Alright," Rex nodded as he helped her up, "Just try and stay behind me from now on."

"Right," Mellissa nodded as she began to follow him before the two began rushing up a set of stairs.

"They're here!" a man in riot gear shouted, he and another man in similar armor standing at the top of the stairs as they began to open fire.

Rex formed his Block Party and formed energy shields to block all their shots. He raised his other arm as he formed the Blaster Caster and launched the tentacle/whip and struck the two with the weapons, knocking the guns out of their hands. Rex spun around turning his left arm into a Funchuck and slammed it into both of them...and then into a wall with a loud crack.

"We must be getting close," Rex whispered as his arms changed back to normal, "Mellissa, you know where the control room is?"

"In front of the Central Elevator at the top floor," Mellsisa answered.

"Good...then let's hurry before more of those guys show up."

"Right."


"Mmm…" a man with short shaggy-light-brown hair frowned a bit, looking down at a computer console behind his glasses, "Almost..ah! There…!" he smiled before looking at a rather portly gentleman, "I was able to unlock it. Go to block 1147."

"H-hai!" the man nodded, hurrying over to a part of the wal as it opened up, revealing a metal briefcase, "I'm opening it!" he called out as he opened the briefcase, revealing a headdress-like device and a clear container with blue liquid inside of it, "Ahh...you did it, professor! Everything is intact…!"

"Yes...I finally got it back," the man whispered as he looked down, clenching his fist as he frowned, "This device and research data are the only things I would never give to anyone. I'll never give it up…"

"It's all going according to plan, ne?" the portly man asked, earning the professor's attention, "Even with the complications, the villains are doing well…"

"...Thank you," the professor nodded as he began to approach him, "It was all because you arranged everything for me, Sam."

"Papa…"

"?!" the professor tensed up, slowly turning to see Rex and Mellissa standing near the entrance, a look of shock and confusion on the latter's face, "Melissa…"

"M-miss, what are you doing here?" Sam asked.

"Papa...what did you mean by 'arrangement'?" Mellissa asked, ignoring the other man as she approached her father, "...please...don't tell me you're behind the incident…in order to get that device? Is...is that true, papa?"

"...yes."

"What? But...why…?"

"The professor is only trying to get back what was stolen from him," Sam explained.

"Stolen?" Rex repeated.

"Hai...a groundbreaking invention that mechanically amplifies Quirks. It's still in testing, but with this device...unlike with drugs, Quirks can be amplified without affecting the body."

"You know just 'cause it says that on paper...doesn't mean it's gonna work that way in reality," Rex argued, "Trust me, everytime a genius scientist makes something crazy like that without proper testing it almost always leads to some kind of nonsense!"

"Tch...but…" Mellissa's father whispered as he looked down, his fist balling up, "Those sponsors confiscated my work...and froze my research!"

"If it was made known to the world, then the structure of superhuman society would change drastically," Sam added, "Fearing that, governments from different nations put pressure on him. That's why the professor…"

"...You hired those guys to help get your tech back," Rex realized.

"...no…" Mellissa whispered, a look of betrayal on her face, "This is a lie..isn't it, papa? Tell me this is a lie!"

"...it's...not a lie," her father whispered, a guilty look on his face as he looked away.

"But..it doesn't make sense!" Mellissa argued, "The papa I know would never do anything like that! So why?! Why?!"

"...It's for All Might," he admitted, making Mellissa's eyes widen, "You two probably don't know, but his Quirk is disappearing. However...if we use my device, then it can go back to normal. I can give him more abilities than he started with. The Number One Hero, the Symbol of Peace...can get his light back again...and save people once more!"

"I'm sorry, what?" Rex blinked utterly confused, "Imagining that makes sense...would All Might even want this given what you caused?"

"I know that, but…!" Mellissa's father grunted, grabbing the metal briefcase from Sam, "If I can help him in anyway, I wouldn't care what punishment comes my way! I…"

"They risked their lives!" Mellissa snapped, earning her father's attention as she showed him the cut on her arm, "What do you think Deku and his friends went through to save those hostages?!"

"...what?" Mellissa's father asked before looking over at Sam, "But...those were fake villains. It should've been an act…"

"Act? Dude, they have guns to peoples' heads and bomb threats all over the island," Rex pointed out, "They are borderline tormenting All Might with hostages! How is any of that fake?"

"?!" Mellissa's father's eyes widened in shock upon hearing that, "What…?"

"Tch...why'd you have to go and spoil it, kid?"

"?!" Rex tensed as he and Mellissa turned, seeing the masked man standing in the doorway.

"Gh?! W-Wolfram?!" Mellissa's father gasped.

"Heh…" Wolfram just smirked as he put his hand on the metal door, causing a nearby railguard to come apart as it crashed into Rex.

"Well...this is annoyingly familiar…" Rex grumbled, partially forming Block Party's gauntlets over his arms to protect himself, "So...we can...talk about how badly this went later...right now...I think I'm in for a real bad beating…" he sighed, realizing what Wolfram's Quirk ability was.

"You are," Wolfram smirked further as he touched the floor, causing part of it to come to life as it attempted to slam into Rex.

"I knew it!" Rex complained, forming the energy shields to protect himself.

"Hmm...what an interesting Quirk," Wolfram noted, "Seems like a shame to just kill this brat." He made more segments of metal floor to raise up and smash into Rex's shields, sending him skidding back.

"Mellissa, get your pops out of here...!" Rex grunted as he managed to stop himself, "I'm gonna hold this guy back..and deck that fat geezer to the schnoz!"

"Wh-what?!" Sam gasped.

"Oh it's so obvious! You went over…!" Rex began before quickly rolling out of the way of another segment of the floor that attempted to smash him, "Your boss' head to work with these guys!"

"?!"

"...Sam? Is th-" Mellissa's father began before Sam snatched the briefcase from him, "?! Don't tell me...from the beginning, you were planning on giving my device to the villains all along?"

"Y-you're the one who tricked me!" Sam argued as he stopped, "I served you for so long, but you let your research be frozen so easily...and the honor and renown we were supposed to get all went away…" he whispered, guilt heavy in his voice as he looked back at him, "If I didn't get at least some money, then it was a waste of my time!"

"Hah! Called it! Jerks like these are so easy to read!" Rex shouted.

"Kid's not wrong." Wolfram spoke as another section of metal smashed into Rex, "But let's get out of here before more brats with delusions of being Heroes show up."

"Ugh...I can't even get close...cause I'm literally facing my worst match up…" Rex groaned, 'Come on think...think! How can I fight a guy who can control metal?!' he thought before grunting in pain, a section of the floor slamming into him from the back as his shields hit another incoming one, 'GH!'

"Now stay there for a moment," Wolfram stated before aiming a gun at Sam, "I need to give him his reward."

"Wh-"

*BANG!*

"Sam!" Mellissa screamed as Sam fell to the floor, dropping the case as he was holding his bleeding shoulder.

"But...why…?" Sam questioned as he looked up at Wolfram, "This isn't what we promised!"

"Promised?" Wolfram repeated, his grin growing as he aimed at him again, "I don't remember."

"?!"

*BANG!*

"?!" Rex' eyes widened as he saw it...Mellissa's father had gotten in front of same to take the shot, resulting in him getting hit as he fell to the floor.

"P...professor, why…?"

"R..run…!" Mellissa's father grunted, a pool of his blood forming beneath him.

"Papa!" Melissa screamed as she ran towards him.

"Mellissa no!" he shouted before Wolfram pistol whipped her, sending her flying back as her glasses shattered from the blow.

"What's this? Trying to be a hero?" Wolfram questioned as he stomped on the professor, making him grunt further in pain, "Heh...no use now. No matter what reason you had, your hands are dirtied with evil deeds...whether we're real or fake, the crime you committed will not disappear. You're like us now...you can no longer remain a scientist or continue your research..." he stated before giving him a cruel smile, "You can only fall into the darkness of villains."

"Hey!" Rex shouted as he formed his Slam Cannon and crunched up a mass of cement and plaster that formed part of the revealed foundation of the floor, "Go tell it to someone who gives a care…" he fired the large ball of cement-debris as it slammed into Wolfram and knocked him into and through a wall, "If you think that is enough to knock me out...you should spend a day getting punched by the jerks I deal with."

"...hm…" Wolfram grunted as he got up, getting out of the hole as he whipped some blood from his lip, "You're really pissing me off kid…"

"Yeah...well that's literally my hobby, so get in line pendejo…" Rex replied with a frown.

"...you!" Wolfram shouted as he looked at one of his men standing in the doorway, "You get the professor and that invention of his out of here! I'll take care of this little upstart."

"G-got it!" he nodded as he prepared to rush for Mellissa's father...before a sudden kick hit him square in the face and sent him flying into some rubble.

"?!" Mellissa's eyes widened, seeing the owner of the leg was Deku as he quickly landed, "D...Deku…"

"Melissa-san!" Deku shouted as he began to rush to her, only to stop when a metal wall rose up before him, "?!"

"Great! Another wannabe-hero..!" Wolfram growled out, about to summon another metal wall before he was suddenly blindsided by Fasttrack, "?!"

"Sorry we're late!" Fasttrack shouted as he skidded to a halt.

"Had to get the hostages out!" Makoto shouted as she hopped off his back, her hair and tail blown back before she quickly shook herself, "Whoo...still a f-" Makoto began before she and Fastrack noticed the condition of Rex, Sam and Mellissa's father, "?! Oh geez…"

"Oh come on...how useless are these stupid robots?!" Wolfram complained before Fasttrack ran up and punched him at high speed, sending him flying back.

"Let's say we found a kink in their armor!" Fasstrack countered as he became a blur to avoid another pillar of metal.

"What happened?" Makoto asked as she helped Rex stand.

"Yea...turns out Melissa's father was behind this, but his friend went behind his back," Rex grunted as he held his chest, "And now Wolfram-the guy we're currently trying to survive against-wants the professor's device to Amplify Quirks!"

"Nani?" Deku asked with wide eyes, only to yelp as he narrowly avoided a pillar of metal.

"Don't you brats get cocky!" Wolfram snapped as he slammed his hand on the floor, causing parts of the ceiling to become more pillars as they headed for the group.

"Great! This guy's basically Magneto!" Fasttrack shouted as he blurred out of the way of a pillar.

"There has to be more to it!" Makoto called out, "Something we aren't seeing!"

"I think he needs to touch anything metal...to use his Quirk," Rex grunted as Makoto quickly carried him out of the way off a pillar, landing right near Melissa before she grabbed her and jumped away from another metal pillar.

"...Melissa-san," Deku spoke up, earning Melissa's attention, "Go…"

"Wh…" Melissa began before noticing the look in Deku's eyes, "..." she gave a nod in response as she pulled herself up, quickly running out the doorway as best she can.

"You're not going anywhere…!" Wolfram began, aiming his gun at her before he quickly summoned another metal wall to block Deku's punch.

"I'll back her up!" Makoto called out, letting Rex go as she ran off after Melissa, "You guys take care of the masked freak here!"

"Urusei, you bitch!" Wolfram snapped as he shot at Makoto, only for a blur to grab the bullet before it could hit her, "?!"

"Okay...first mistake was shooting at my girl," Fasttrack scowled as he stopped, dropping the bullet to the floor as he glared at Wolfram, "Second was calling her the B-word, so now…" he paused as he pressed the Omnitrix, engulfing him in green light as Lodestar took his place =I'm gonna get serious…=

"Oh you've done it now, you dimestore ruffian! Let us teach you how this works! You...are the villain. This means...you lose!" Skurd declared.

=While I...always win!= he sent out a magnetic wave which made all the metal Wolfram sent at them to suddenly stop =Next time...don't underestimate someone who's giving it his all to be a Hero, and if you're gonna be a villain...try harder!= at that all the metal condensed into what could best be described as a giant iron fist, =Smash…= at that it rocketed forward and at Wolfram.

"?!" Wolfram tensed as he quickly slammed his hands on the ground, making multiple metal walls to block the incoming fist, only to grunt when Deku punched him from behind, "GH!"

"SMASH!"

*SLAM!*


"Oooh...yeah. That must've hurt," Makoto winced to herself, standing in a control room with Melissa typing away at the console.

"Almost...got it!" Melissa called out, looking up at a few screens to show the drones surrounding the others in Deku and Ben's groups shutting down, "The remaining drones are deactivated!"

"Sweet! All that leaves…" Makoto began.

=Okay! Now you're pissing me off!=

"...is the Nomu," Makoto whispered as she and Melissa looked at another screen, seeing Decade fighting against the Nomu.

"Uhm…"

"It's sciency stuff." Makoto explained as Decade choke slammed the Nomu through a wall, "Trust us, we ask alot about his projects…"

=Oh no you don't!= Decade pulled the Nomu as it tried to crawl away back into the hole in the wall =I'm not done with you=

"...he usually likes to keep them hush hush," Makoto sweatdropped a bit.

"Noted…" Melissa whispered before she noticed another screen, "?! Oh no…"

"Wh-" Makoto began before looking at the screen, seeing one of Wolfram's men carrying off Melissa's heavily bleeding father as Wolfram followed behind him with bits of his mask cracked and his other arm slumped while carrying the metal briefcase, "?! What?!"

"He must've done something to cover his escape," Melissa guessed, a look of worry on her face as she looked at her father, "Papa…"

"...Ben," Makoto spoke up into her communicator, "Get Rex and Deku. That jerk Wolfram is trying to escape with Melissa's pops."

=Already pursuing him= Lodestar responded as Makoto looked over at another screen, showing him, Deku and Rex running down the hallway.

=Seriously...how'd he survive that?= Rex grunted as Deku helped him stand.

=Questions for later, let's just get him!= Skurd complained.

=Right!= Deku nodded.

=Makoto, you stay near Melissa in case any of Wolfram's thugs try and come for her= Lodestar stated.

"Gotcha. Stay safe, Ben."

=Given how this might go...I plan to try my best=

=Wait...what does that mean?= Deku asked.

=Things can always go worse…= Rex and Lodestar sighed in unison =Always…=

=And he's writing it down…= Skurd muttered.

=Wh-oh come on man! Not now…!= Rex complained as Makoto cut the communicator.

"I swear…" Makoto rolled her eyes with an amused chuckle before her ears twitched, "?"

"Uncle Might, Papa's been taken by the villains, and Deku and his friends are going after them!" Melissa called out into her phone

=It's fine! I will go!= All Might declared.

"I really want to see what happens…" Makoto muttered to herself, "...and I'm guessing you want to head to where the bad guys are taking your pops so you can see him after Deku, Ben and Rex save him, hai?"

"...was it really that obvious?"

"Yup, because I would do the same if my dad had been captured," Makoto stated, "...well kinda...personally I'd go rescue him myself, but daddy could more than handle himself."

"Thank you," Melissa smiled, understanding her sentiment.

"Come on, we'll go. But we're keeping you out of danger, you don't want to make more work for All Might and Deku and the others." Makoto smiled.

"Right," Melissa nodding as she stood up, the two quickly rushing out the doorway.


"Boss! What's going on?" one of Wolfram's men called out, standing near a large helicopter as Wolfram and his other henchman carried Melissa's father.

"We're leaving...before the security system gets reactivated," Wolfram grunted, wincing a bit as he managed to relocated his shoulder into place, "GAH!"

"B-boss?!"

"Just do it!"

"Y-yes sir!" the grunt yelped as he ran towards the helicopter.

"...Kill...me…" Melissa's father grunted.

"Heh...I'll just add a few more sins, then I'll make your wish come true," Wolfram stated as he took the professor from his grunt, "You're gonna help mass produce this invention of yours."

"?!" Melissa's father's eyes widened upon hearing that, grunting when Wolfram roughly placed him on the helicopter floor.

"Now...let's g-"

"MATTE!"

"...ugh…" Wolfram groaned as he turned, looking towards a nearby staircase doorway to see Lodestar, Rex and Deku running out, "You again?"

"Give the professor back!" Deku shouted.

"Hmm? Now why do that?" Wolfram countered with a smirk, "Why rescue a man with so many sins on his shoulders?!"

=That's not our problem to think about, we just worry about stopping losers like you= Lodestar argued =As long as we save the folks from you, that's all we need to think about first=

"We can't save someone from their own issues." Rex argued, "But we can beat you, and give him the chance to do it himself."

"As if!" Wolfram argued as he slammed his hand on the floor, causing multiple metal pillars to rise up and shoot towards the trio.

=Hey dingus...anything you can do, I can do better~= Lodestar sang raising his arms and stopping the pillars, he lifted his arms up and ripped them out of the ground as he began ripping them into chunks and recharging them into a claw shaped like his hand before aiming it down at them, =I believe this is a quantifiable learning moment, if something doesn't work...don't try it again,= he fired it at Wolfram's goons knocking them all down and pinning them under a mass of metal.

"That is still amazing!" Deku shouted in awe.

=No time for awe...I'm on a clock, hit him…= Lodestar whispered while motioning with his floating head.

"Oh! H-hai!" Deku nodded before quickly rushing out

"You sure that's wise?" Wolfram asked as he aimed his gun at Melissa's father, making Deku's eyes widen.

"Don't worry about me…!" the professor shouted, "Just run away…!"

"Jeez...it's so inconvenient being a hero," Wolfram shook his head, "I didn't do much and already none of you can't move…" he looked over at Lodestar, "You, dismiss that form or else…"

"Cowardly Blaggard!" Skurd shouted.

=Okay okay= he sighed, twisting his arms to disengage his magnetism, his arm fidgeted for a moment before he flashed back to normal.

"Good…" Wolfram grinned...before placing his hand on the ground.

"?! M-!" Rex began before the metal pillars slammed into him, Ben and Deku, "GAH!"

"Mm...I hate when they have you like this...they always go for the cheap shots to make themselves feel better…" Ben grumbled before another metal pillar slammed into them from behind, "GH!"

"Playing heroes...no matter how you see it, it's not a smart way to live," Wolfram smirked as another metal pillar rose up from beneath the trio, causing them to cough up blood as they were sent flying into the air, "In the end, it'll only get you killed...men, start the copter!"

"Yes boss!"

"This guy really loves hammering in this point…" Rex groaned.

"Probably got a lot of issues he's projecting onto heroes…" Ben muttered.

"Ngh…" Deku grunted as he forced himself up, activating his Quirk as he jumped up to a nearby metal pillar, running along the edge of it as he ran towards the helicopter, 'He shouldn't be able ot activate his Quirk..if he's not on the ground!' he thought as he jumped up and grabbed the side of the helicopter, causing it to swerve out of control.

"Oh you really need to learn when to call it quits brat!" Wolfram complained as he tried stomping on Deku's fingers.

"GH!" Deku grunted out before looking out at Melissa's father, "Hakase! Melissa's waiting for you!"

"Wh-?!" the professor's eyes widened.

"Grr...you certainly are a hero," Wolfram frowned...before grinning as he aimed his gun at Deku, "But, you're also an idiot."

"Then what does that make you?!"

"Wh-" Wolfram began before the helicopter began to swerve out of control once more, "?!"

"Nani?" Deku gasped before looking to the side, seeing Rex hanging on with one of his Slam Hands.

"You realize we never promised to stop getting involved right?! We just let you get a cheap shot!" Rex argued.

"Damn you!" Wolfram aimed and pulled the trigger...but nothing, "W-what?!" he asked, pulling the trigger a few times.

"Yeah before I changed back to normal...I bent the firing pin in your gun!" Ben shouted, "Yes...I am that good!" he raised the Omnitrix, "Also thanks for letting me get some energy back while you enjoyed a cheap win!" he slammed his hand on the watch as a bright flash replaced him with Shock Rock, "Booyah!" He clapped his hands together before pulling them apart to form a giant boomerang almost as tall as Deku, "Izuku, grab the Doc!" he ordered.

"AH! Hai!" Deku realized the plan as he put a little more energy into his arms and pulled himself in and rushed past Wolfram before grabbing Melissa's dad and pushing him and himself out the other side of the Helicopter cabin.

"Wait!" Wolfram shouted just as the boomerang slammed into the stabilizing propeller, ripping it off, "Oh son of a bitch…" he muttered as Rex let go and let the Helicopter lose control.

"LATER!" Rex shouted, activating his hoverpack as he began to fly back towards the ground.

"GRR! Damn brats…!" Wolfram snarled before looking at the metal suitcase, "..."

"I got ya!" Rex shouted, grabbing Deku's arm, keeping him and Melissa's dad from dangerously falling, "Okay...buddy, keep some pressure on that wound, we're gonna have to keep an eye on that till we can get him some medical help!"

"Right!" he nodded using his free arm to hold the Professor closer and keep pressure on the bullet wound.

"Hmm...I got a bad feeling about this." Shock Rock spoke up, "I feel a lot of energy suddenly building up."

"I forget...Fulmini are living energy...of course you could sense something like that," Skurd muttered.

"Papa!" the trio turned to see Melissa standing in teh doorway, Makoto standing right behind her as the former looked on at her father.

"Melissa…"

"You have to make it up to her." Rex spoke up, "She is scared and doesn't understand what you were thinking when you made the thing that started all this." he spoke with a slight sigh and a knowing tone, "But she still has faith in you, so...you gotta try and explain yourself. And do your best to make it up to her. Your family, you're all you got in this world sometimes. If you can't live for your weird science project anymore...just live for her."

"...Me...Melissa…" the professor began, looking away for a moment before looking at his daughter, "I…"

*BOOM!*

The group tensed as they turned, seeing the helicopter crashing into the helipad.

"...oh that can't be good…" Makoto whispered before a metal pillar slammed into Rex and Deku, "?!"

"Wh-" Shock Rock began before he was suddenly entangled in wires, "GH!"

"Papa!" Melissa called out as her father was suddenly lifted up by a different set of wires and dragged towards a growing metal pile, more metal beginning to surround him as he was engulfed within the pile.

"That Sam…" Wolfram growled out, his mask missing as he had the professor's device on his head, "I heard rumors All Might is losing his powers...and this very device was meant to help him! No wonder David Shield wanted it back so bad! This shit's amazing!"

"Oh boy…" Makoto muttered her ears flattening down as she looked up, "So...this is bad…"

"This is the power...papa's device made…" Melissa whispered, a look of fear on her face.

"Now then...in order to raise this thing's price, I think a demonstration is in order…" Wolfram grinned before holding his arm out, creating a huge metal wall to block an incoming punch from All Might, "And what better way than blowing All Might away?!"

"GH!" All Might grunted as he jumped off the now impacted metal wall before punching another metal pillar, coughing up a bit of blood as he landed, 'Damn it..I'm nearing my limit….'

"All Might!" Deku called out.

"Ugh…" Rex groaned.

"Alright...we gotta break the thing…" Shock Rock groaned as one of his arms reformed into a chainsaw as he began cutting himself free.

"You're still gonna keep fighting?" Deku asked, "But All Might and the Pro's should be able to see this."

"You got a point." Shock Rock spoke, "But I'm not gonna be happy sitting around and doing nothing. My own dream is to be the Number 1 back home! If I can't fight a loser like this how can I ever work towards that title?"

"But what if you mess up when it matters most...what if...what if you can't?" Deku asked before flinching as a small bolt from Shock Rock hit his forehead, "Ite…"

"If you got time to worry about that, you got time to punch the bad guy," Shock Rock replied, "It doesn't matter what you think. When it comes down to it, you either do it or you don't. If you can think up all those pointless worries, then you could have thought up a dozen different plans to save the Doc, right?"

"?!" Deku's eyes widened a bit at that...before looking up and giving him a determined look, "Hai...I promised Melissa I'd save her father…and I'm not gonna give up...not to him..."

"Then let's make sure this guy doesn't hurt anyone else," Shock Rock stated as he and Deku looked back at Wolfram.

"HAI!"

'..Young Midoriya…' All Might thought as he pushed himself, panting a bit as he stood up, 'That young man is right….what good is a hero...if he just stands by if he does nothing?!'

"I've had enough of you three…" Wolfram frowned as he held his arms out, sending multiple steel pillars at the trio, "Get crushed!" He roared out...only for the pillars to suddenly stop in the air, "?! How…?!"

"Hi~" Makoto spoke up, earning his attention as she gave him a cocky grin with the Sheikah Slate in her hands.

"HOW…?!" Wolfram began before the pillars were shot back at him, crashing into him as he coughed up some blood, "GAH!"

"That device is oddly powerful," All Might noted as he lowered his fist a bit, "The person who invented it must've been ahead of his time."

'Oh you have no idea…' Shock Rock and Makoto mentally deadpanned before a metal pillar began to head towards the latter and Melissa, "?!"

"OH NO YOU DON'T!" Rex shouted, activating his Slam Hands as he blocked the incoming pillar as best he could, "You and I still have some unfinished business, ya bastardo pelirrojo!"

"You…!" Wolfram snarled out, about to send more pillars before they were suddenly flash frozen, "?!"

"SHINEI!" Wolfram looked up to see Bakugo pouncing towards him, firing off multiple explosive shots as the metal manipulator quickly formed a wall to block the incoming shots, "Tch! You guys are seriously struggling against this lame final boss?!"

"Y-young Bakugo…!" All Might shouted before grunting, blocking another metal pillar heading his way.

"When did…" Deku began as he and Shock Rock looked back, seeing the others in theri respective groups looking on at them, "Minna!"

"Sorry we're late. We had to wait on the elevator and get the bindings off," Sari explained before she and the others noticed Wolfram, "?!"

"...body signatures off the charts…": Lambda whispered as her visor scanned Wolfram, "His abilities have increased a hundredfold, but the resulting shock is damaging his body internally, along with increasing his body's heat temperature..."

"What...did we miss?" Mai cautiously asked.

"We'll tell ya later!" Shock Rock shouted, punching back another piece of frozen metal before it shot towards Wolfram, "Or now, mind giving us a hand here with this guy?!"

"Fine with me!" Kirishima shouted as he hardened his fist, "We'll take care of the metal lumps!"

"Yaoyorozu, take care of things here!" Ida shouted as he and Kirishima ran in to join the fight.

"Just be careful!" Makoto called out, jumping away form another metal pillar before tapping on her Sheikah Slate, causing an energy bomb to appear as it landed on teh pillar before it exploded, "Melissa's dad is trapped in that thing!"

"Got it!" Sari nodded, bringing her Hammer out as she and Lambda rushed out.

'These children...despite the situation, they're motivated to fight and help!' All Might thought, ignoring the pain in his body, I can't be held back by my stupid limitations...I need to go past my limit and go beyond!' he mentally declared before punching the pillar pushing him back, shattering it into pieces, "PLUS ULTRA!"

'EEEEE~! HE SAID THE LINE!' Makoto mentally cheered.


"Hmm…the big part is going on…" Decade noted as he held the Nomu by its throat as it gasped and tried to break free, "Should I join in and help...or finish off this thing here…?" he pondered before the Nomu roared in his face, "Hmm…nah I'll watch," he spoke as his hand began glowing with magenta energy…as the Nomu began disintegrating, "Bye bye...and stay dead."

The Nomu just roared out as it attempted to grab his head...only for its hand to fall to the floor as-much like the Nomu-disintegrated into nothing.

"Ah…much better…" Decade sighed in relief, "Seriously...that thing was a pain in the ass. Now I know why the main villain of this world uses th-" he paused right there as he blinked behind his helmet, "...oh I get it now..."


"HA!" All Might shouted as he punched another metal pillar in the air, quickly running along the edge of another as two more headed his way.

"We got 'em!" Shock Rock and Rex shouted as the two jumped up and held back the incoming pillars.

"Much appreciated!" All Might shouted, shooting past them as a trio of metal pillars began to head towards him, "Carolina…!" he began, crossing his arms in an 'X' formation as he crashed through the pillars, a bright flash going off as a shockwave nearly knocked everyone over, "SMASH!"

"He just needs a clean hit and that's it!" Shock Rock grunted.

"Then we take out his only means of defense!" Sari called out as she smashed an incoming pillar with her hammer, "Lambda!"

"Understood," Lambda nodded before she took off into the air.

"Tch! You think that's gonna stop me?!" Wolfram shouted as he held his hands out to summon another metal wall, only for Lambda to suddenly vanish, "?! Where…!" he began before one of his arms was suddenly lifted up by Lambda's ancient flail.

"Target open for final hit…"

"Way to go, La-chan!" Makoto cheered on.

"Gh...let…!"

"Your evil is over, villain! Prepare yourself!" All Might shouted, reeling his fist back as he shot towards Woflram….only to end up getting tied up by a series of metal wires, "!?"

"Prepare myself?" Wolfram questioned, his mask melting away as his body was burning a bright red, "You should take your own advice...All Might…" he grinned before forcing his arm down, causing Lambda to be slammed into the ground by her own weapon as the Ancient Flail slipped off his arm.

"What...is this power…?!" All Might grunted before wolfram grabbed him by the neck while his free hand touched a spot on his chest, gripping it hard before a sudden jolt of pain shot through the Pro Hero's body, "?! Gh-GAAH!"

"Oh you gotta b-" Sari began before a Metal Pillar slammed into her, "AHH!"

"OH COME…!" Shock Rock began before multiple metal pillars slammed into him and Rex while Bakugo, Kirishima, Ida and Todoroki struggled with more of the pillars.

"Oi! Why is he holding back on us!?" Bakugo complained.

"Because those Senpai are older and better than us…mostly you." Todoroki argued.

"You are really pushing your luck…"

"Not the time to argue!" Makoto shouted, holding onto Melissa as she jumped away from another metal pillar that tried to slam into the two.

"Gh…" Lambda grunted as she got up, her armor sparking a bit as she struggled to stand, "Not...Magnetism….enhanced strength…" she whispered before coughing up a bit of blood, "...multiple...abilities…"

"Mul..tiple…?" All Might repeated in his grunts...before a look of realization hit him, "?! Don't tell me…"

"Yeah…" Wolfram smirked, "When we were planning this extortion, I received a call from that man...he even gave me a few gifts to help in it…"

'The Nomu...meaning…' Makoto began in her thoughts before she began to pale, 'Oh shit...this guy was hired by All for One…'

"Makoto?" Mai blinked, noticing the look on the Beastkin's face.

"Is...she okay?" Momo asked in concern.

"I think now is not the time to question it and just worry about not getting crushed!" Sari shouted, holding her arm as she quickly rolled out of the way of another metal pillar.

"Agreed!" Mai yelped as she and the others were now avoiding the near-endless barrage of metal pillars.

"When I asked that man why he wanted to help, he told me this…" Wolfram stated to All Might with a grin, "'If All Might's friend has said he wants to have a hand in something evil, then I definitely want to help...it is unfortunate that I will not be able to see All Might's face twist in pain when he finds out, though…"

"All for One…!" All Might growled out in pure rage, losing his trademark smile as a fierce glare took its place.

"So you finally stopped smiling, huh?" Wolfram smirked before looking at the younger heroes, "Watch closely, kids...you're about to see what happens when you try and be a hero!"

"NO!-!-!-!" All Might roared out as he tried to free himself, only to gasp out in pain when a metal pillar slammed him in the gut, sending him flying back while still tied up by the metal wires. He attempted to move before a pair of metal cubes slammed into him.

"?!" Deku's eyes widened in shock.

"ALL MIGHT/UNCLE MIGHT!" the UA Students and Melissa shouted as more and more metal cubes began to slam into All Might.

"NOW DIE! ALL MIGHT!" Wolfram shouted as metal spikes rose up and headed towards the now massive cube All Might was trapped in.

"I'm almost out…but might just give them a chance." Shock Rock groaned as he used his electricity to reach the Omnitrix.

Wolfram paused as a giant green flash blinded him. He stopped his attack and looked up before his eyes widened and his jaw slacked. Way Big rose to his full height as he glared down at Wolfram with a scowl.

"What…the…fu…"

"Smash…" Way Big whispered, raising and crossing his arms before unleashing a massive green beam at Wolfram.

"?!" Wolfram tensed as he summoned multiple metal walls to block the incoming laser shot, summoning another to take its place as the laser kept destroying each one.

"What the fuck!?" Bakugo gawked as everyone flinched from the bright light of the beam, "HOW!?"

"This still isn't his strongest transformation either!" Mai called out as powerful gusts of wind were whipped up by the beam tearing apart each wall Wolfram made.

"Gh...come on...move body…" Rex grunted as he forced himself up, even more tears in his close as blood dripped from his lip and head, "...Deku!"

"Hai?" Deku questioned as he hurried over to him.

"Get All Might out of that cube…" Rex said before glaring over at Wolfram, "I'm gonna try and give you guys time to prepare the finishing blow."

"?! But…" Deku began before noticing the look in Rex's eyes. A moment of silence passed before the greenette nodded as he hurried over to the massive cube All Might was trapped in.

"GH! GOD DAMN FREAK!" Wolfram shouted as he raised his free hand, summoning more metal cubes and spikes as they shot towards Way Big.

"That's the best you got?" Way Big asked, totally unphased by his attacks, "I felt a breeze," he smirked, rearing an arm back as he ended his beam attack, "Let me copy a page from that legend you just insulted." he closed his hand into a fist.

"No…no no no…NO!"

"HA!" Way Big roared, swinging a massive overhead punch, his fist smashing cubes and spikes as it rocketed towards Wolfram like a meteor.

"...got ya…" Wolfram smirked before a massive pair of metal hands rose up behind him and grabbed Way Big's arm.

"What?!"

"Don't' forget, punk...this entire building is made of metal!" Wolfram shouted.

"But how much of it…and your focus is it taking to stop me?" Way Big smirked after a moment.

"?!" Wolfram tensed before a piece of debris slammed into him, "GAH! Who..!" he snarled before turning, looking down to see Rex glaring at him with his cannon out, "YOU AGAIN?!"

"You think you're so smart huh? Just because you have some big shot villain backing you up doesn't make you invincible!" Rex shouted, "Besides...you made an enemy of not just myself, but of my huge amigo here…"

*SMASH!*

"!?" Wolfram tensed as he looked over, seeing the cube he had All Might trapped in shattered to pieces as the Pro Hero and Deku fell to the ground.

"Oh...and the hero you just angered beyond belief, and a hero in training," Rex added with a smirk, "Not a good day for you…"

"SHUT UP!" Wolfram snapped as his body brightened up even more, his shirt burning off as another metal spike rose up and tore right through Rex's shoulder.

"...heh…." Rex grinned, ignoring the pain in his shoulder as he summoned his Slam Hands and grabbed the Metal Spike, "Got ya now…"

"?"

"I had a feeling that freaky device would make your Quirk even stronger over time, but…" Rex began before coughing up a bit of blood, looking up at Wolfram with a defiant grin, "What happens...when you can't concentrate on defending yourself while busy dealing with me and Ben here…?"

"How much metal can you pull in, without letting me go so I can pound ya?" Way Big asked.

"?!"

"That's right ruffian! You lost, so either take the beating from my friend here, or…" Skurd began before a green flash went off nearby, "You deal with yet another painful beating from All Might and young Deku?!"

"Either way…" Rex paused as he grinned, "It's lose-lose for you…"

"?!" Wolfram tensed as he noticed a pair of blurs shooting towards him, the berserk villain faintly seeing the blurs being both All Might and Deku as they jumped towards him.

"To overcome the crisis before you…"! All Might grunted as he reeled his fist back.

"With everything you've got…!" Deku added as he reeled his covered fist back.

"And save people…!"

"With everything you got!"

"That is what makes…!"

"A HERO!"

'Shit! SHIT! I can't concentrate!' Wolfram thought, now struggling to control the metal hands holding back Way Big's fist, "GRRR! FUCK IT! I'll SMASH YOU ALL AND THIS TOWER!" he roared out as he began to combine all the metal in the area, forming a massive iron cube before having it shoot towards All Might and Deku, "NOW DIE!"

"Double Detroit…!" All Might and Deku began, their fist glowing as they slammed them against the metal cube, "SMASH!"

"GO!" Uraraka shouted.

"ALL MIGHT!" the female UA students shouted.

"MIDORIYA!" Ida, Kirishima and Mineta shouted.

"END THIS!" Bakugo and Todoroki shouted.

"YOU GOT THIS!" Sari, Makoto and Mai shouted.

"Win…" Lambda whispered.

"Get 'em...amigos…" Rex whispered as he collapsed onto the floor just as the giant metal cube was shattered into pieces.

"NANI?!"

"Go…!" Deku began, his fist glowing bright as the armband began to glow brightly.

"Beyond…!" All Might added. A similar aura covering him as he and Deku shot towards Wolfram.

"PLUS ULTRA!"

Wolfram tensed as he quickly summoned metal to defend himself, only to cry out when Deku and All Might's fist slammed deep into his gut, the former punching so hard he shattered his armband as he gave out a loud roar. Wolfram cried out as his metal structure began to break up, exploding in a flash of bright light as his entire body was soon engulfed in it.

*BOOM!*

"WOAH!" Way Big yelped, nearly falling over from the massive shockwave before he noticed David flying out of the wreckage, "?! Oh shoot!"

"GRAB HIM!" Skurd snapped.

"I got him!" Way Big shot his arm out and grabbed David. He let out a sigh of relief before his eyes bugged out as the Omnitrix began beeping.

"...oh for…" Skurd began before a flash went off, leaving Ben and a still unconscious David floating in the air, "...I'm starting to get a bit irked by this…!"

"Not n-AHH!" Ben yelped as gravity soon took control.

As David began to regain consciousness, a bright light began to catch his attention as he looked up. For a moment...he swore he saw a younger All Might...but in truth, he saw Deku, his fist held up high into the sky with a victorious smile on his face. He then suddenly felt his descent slowing down, making him look to see Lambda holding him and Ben by the scruffs of their shirts.

"Rescue...com..plete…" Lambda whispered, sparking a bit once more as she safely landed the two on the ground...before she proceeded to fall over as her armor vanished.

"...i-it's over right?" Mineta asked as the dust began to settle, "They beat the villain?"

"I think so…" Mai answered as the dust dissipated, showing Wolfram hanging off a piece of debris...only he was practically skin and bones with David's invention falling off his head, "Yup...it's over...and yikes…"

"Heh...suck it...Wolfram…" Rex grunted with a weak grin just as a heavy panting Deku landed next to him.

"Rex-san...you...okay…?" Deku asked in his panting.

"Nothing...a good patching will do…" Rex assured before looking to the side, "Besides...I think you got company, buddy…"

"Eh?"

"Deku!" Deku turned to see Melissa running towards him, "I'm glad...I…" she paused as she began to tear up, "I'm so glad...I really am. You...thank you. Thanks to you and your friends, we were able to save everyone…"

"It's thanks to you as well, Melissa-san," Deku smiled, making her blink a bit, "If it wasn't for your Full Gauntlet, I wouldn't have been able to pull all that off...thank you very much…" he stated...before it dawned on him, "AHH! G-gomen! I broke it…!" he panicked as Melissa just giggled.

"Don't worry about it."

"Well…we won…" Ben groaned as Makoto helped him sit, "Yay…"

"Show...of hands…" Sari panted as she and the others followed suit, "Who's ready to just...relax after tonight…?"

"To...day," Lambda weakly corrected.

"Wh-" Sari began before they all noticed the sun beginning to rise in the distance, "...oaky correction...who wants to take the entire day to rest and just relax the following day?"

"I think we can arrange that." Tsukasa spoke, suddenly appearing behind all of them.

"AHH!" they all yelped a bit in surprise.

"Wh...know what? Too tired…." Mai sighed.

"Good." Tsukasa smirked, "Now let's get going. We need a day off, and I need to blackmail people into giving it to us."

"Are we sure your not evil!?" Makoto complained.

"That…is a matter of perspective," he replied, "Espcially for guys in fishing hats who sometimes becomes a nazi werewolf…" he grumbled to himself.

"...ahh...fair enough," Makoto groaned.

"Yup...now let's get you kids patched up...specially Ben, Rex and Deku."

"They don't look so…" Mai began.

"OW!" all three cried in pain.

"Ben used up too much energy and got knocked around, Rex fixed his wound with his construct power but he's still feeling the phantom pains, and Deku…he's a poor goofy boy who is using up his cartilage like an old man." Tsukasa sighed.

"Eh?" Deku blinked at that.

"But anyways...time to get you three fixed up."

"...why do I suddenly feel scared?" Deku admitted, "...even more than after Kachan won Sports festival?"

"You don't wanna know…" Ben and Rex answered in unison.
