Ulrich362: Tetsuo and Izuku seem to be doing well at Somei, making new friends and well... there was one incident but I don't think it'll happen again right Bopdog?
bopdog111: If you mean the Sludge Villain Incident, then kinda yeah but not to worries All Might still has a successor.
Ulrich362: What sludge villain? I meant Tetsuo using his Persona to protect Toga.
bopdog111: Oh thought you meant that.
Ulrich362: It's ok, so what's going to happen now?
bopdog111: Well next up is some training scenes, and then checking up on Bakugo. Along with two other things.
Disclaimer: We don't own the Persona Series, or My Hero Academia! All rights go their respective owners. All we own are the OCs.
It had been several weeks since that last incident, and liked the Kirijo Group had hoped over, the lawsuit case with Toga's parents ended quite fast after the huge amount of evidence over. News of the new lawsuit happened over the school, and the students respect Izuku, and Tetsuo more while making amends over there thoughts with Toga apologizing over to her for how they treated her, and the kind of pain she had to endure. The most troubling students still cursed her but are on very thin ice so they didn't made another move to her.
Skyla meanwhile came clean about her Quirk, and to her surprise most of the students supported her over since there was no way she can use her Quirk to kill anyone after she promised, and with her reputation she is to be trusted. The less trustworthy are shut down after they argued she could be an assassin in the making which they were given warnings of expulsion. Skyla, and Momo still lectured Tetsuo (along with Iida) about using his Quirk when he isn't allowed but knows he won't do it again.
Of course during the weeks now came the Training Process over. At first Tsunagu employed some confident, and strong demeanor training to mentally prepare them as he was an expect of child counseling techniques pointing out there flaws, and advantages (along with a silly hairdo that he subjected them too embarrassing them at times) while the Persona Users give them there own advice, and moves. And of course Nezu worked in classes with Izuku to train his already very gifted mind to be more powerful, and able to think of solutions for things as proven when he had Teddie figure out he can use his Quirk to preform a sprinkler effect for plantlife, taking out fires, deal with hot people, and playing pranks (that last one ended with everyone wet, and Chie with Mitsuru gave him a yelling for his life).
And Tetsuo trains his mind for his Wildcard often visiting Igor for advice, and chatting with Nusumu about several things over. His Persona abilities grew as his bonds expand so he tries to bond over with everyone, and while it's growing the process is slow in on it's itself. Of course he's patient since there in no hurry for now. No deadlines need to be set. He had learned to not rely on his Persona for battles thanks to Tsunagu's Martial Arts focus with Izuku that have the boys gaining some bulk over in some weeks but it's not that much.
Soon it was time for there first time against REAL opponents.
Mitsuru, and the others are behind a glass window leading to a room waiting for Tsunago along with a Pro Hero he had contacted to help him out with the lesson in mind, and he already chatted that she can keep a secret over.
"Are you sure they're ready? I know it's just practice but they've never done anything like this before." Fuuka mentioned to Mitsuru, her mama bear instincts coming out as she wanted to protect her baby boy.
"It'll be okay Fuuka. Tsunagu, and his Pro Hero friend are there to help them out in case it gets too much." Mitsuru assures her with a soft smile. "And if it's too much for them we can turn it off."
"Well, if you're sure." Fuuka relented taking Mitsuru's hand gently. "I'm just nervous."
Mitsuru smiled over before the door opened as they looked over.
"Sorry for the wait, it took her a while to arrive." Tsunagu walked over with his Pro Hero friend who Chie recognized immediately.
The Pro Hero is a blonde haired woman wearing a red sleeveless dress with yellow claw designs on it, having white arm arounds extending to her shoulders along with a sliver like talon on her head covering her right eye, black small dragon wings behind her head, and black boots extending to half the bottom of her legs.
"No way, you're Ryukyu!" Chie cried in shock before her eyes widened and she coughed. "Oh, I didn't know you were coming, we really appreciate you helping Tetsuo and Izuku."
Ryukyu grinned over towards her. "Well I didn't expect to meet a fan of mine."
"W-Well two fans!" Izuku brought up already in front of her notebook in hand real excited. "Can I have your autograph please!?"
Ryukyu blinked but smiled over. "Of course." She takes her notebook opening it where she sees her analysis on it blinking surprised checking it over. "Oh wow, I didn't think of using my techniques this way." As she signed over she grinned over towards Izuku. "Really nice deduction about me, and my Quirk young man."
"Oh well... thank you. You see my quirk didn't awaken for a while and so I thought I was quirkless... but I always..." Izuku started only for Tetsuo to tap his shoulder.
"Izuku, you're doing it again." he chuckled causing Izuku to pause and blush a bit.
"Well I'm sure you remember some of us." Mitusuru explained over towards Ryukyu. "You encountered us at the lawsuit casing at Aldera with the others."
"Yes of course. And imagine my surprise when Tsunagu given me a call to help him train the same troubled kids." Ryukyu grinned over to the man who stared over shrugging. She then looked around for someone before asking over. "Where's the blonde one?"
"Kacchan's at another school, trying to work on getting more control over his quirk and his temper so he doesn't risk his spot at U.A." Izuku answered smiling. "I'm sure he'll be an awesome hero."
Ryukyu grinned over nodding before saying over. "Well you two just stay careful cause I was told that even if these enemies should be weak enough for you to handle there is a chance that you two will be put in grave danger." She the crossed her arms. "So if anything worrisome happens let me, and Jeanist handle it alright?"
Tetsuo and Izuku both nodded at that.
"We will, thank you very much." Izuku bowed respectfully.
"Yes thanks miss." Tetsuo bowed himself.
Ryukyu blushed over. "H-hey drop the miss there. I'm barely old enough to be called a 'miss'."
"Your 26..."
"Tsunagu!" Ryukyu snapped over to her fellow hero who only shrugged in response on raising a logical point. "Try thinking how I'm feeling when your saying stuff with pure logic jeez!"
That made Akihiko winced on some... memories over when he tried practicing talking to girls from a manual he had that brought that same warning over.
"What's wrong?" Junpei asked him hearing his wince.
"Nothing, alright so if you're all ready head in and we can get started." Akihiko mentioned with a grin only to pause. "Oh right, you two might need weapons have you decided what you're going to use Tetsuo?"
Tetsuo grinned over at that before taking out a hunting knife. "Not as good as Joker's but fitting as I awakened as a Phantom Thief."
"A useful weapon for close quarters." Mitsuru smiled before turning to Izuku. "And you?"
Izuku blushed over but pulls out what looks like brass punch-rings. "In All Might's time as a hero he never uses a weapon so I followed suit but for now these punchrings should suffice until I feel comfortable without a weapon."
"Fair enough, and we have been teaching you some basic martial arts." Makoto pointed out with a smile.
"Then if you two are ready, let's get started." Tsunagu voiced over as they nodded walking in with Ryukyu.
Ryukyu looked around never seeing a room like this as they hear Mitsuru's voice on the intercom. "For now only things that Tetsuo, and Izuku can handle, and work our way up. They should be Shadows that there strong again so there isn't any need to worry if there weaknesses are hit. Are you four ready to begin?"
"Yes Mrs. Kirijo!" Izuku nodded as Tetsuo couldn't help but smile.
"I'm ready mom, this is just like what you and Mamagishi went through... it's kind of exciting." he admitted smiling.
"Alright then... beginning test!" Mitsuru pressed a button.
(Battle Theme: Take Over)
A turret lowered from the celling, and shot something at the center of the room shaping as a spiked like orb planted to the ground. The top of the orb rose which reveals a mechanizm that appears to give out a sonar pulse every few seconds. Then after several seconds black blobs appeared from the ground raising up showing several black blobs in several different color masks before transforming into a small woman wearing a blue leotard, a pumpkin like monster holding a lantern, and a grinning pink skin devil with a horn on it's crotch.
"Whoa, what the?" Izuku asked stunned. "Tetsuo, are those the Shadows you were talking about?"
"Yes, Shadows take on two forms, both the blob form you seen, and true battle fighting forms which is what we're seeing." Tetsuo explained over to him as he donned his Phantom Thief attire. "In combat against Shadows there only function in battle is killing any who isn't a Shadow. Destroying them holds no negative effects so your free to destroy how many you want. To deal with Shadows is to strike there weaknesses, or elements that they have no advantage of. That's the basic of basics." Tetsuo then grinned over. "Come on, let's show them what we got!"
At that the pumpkin monster charged in swinging with his lantern that he dodged as Tetsuo charged in trying to slashing with his hunting knife that the pumpkin dodged before the grinning devil raised his arm as a needle appeared. "Dream Needle!" He fired it which they dodged over before Izuku looked at the punch-rings before charging letting out a battle-cry landing a right rook at the pumpkin who didn't anticipate it knocking back before the woman closed her eyes. "Dia!"
A green glow appeared on the pumpkin healing it of the damage Izuku just dealt to it. Tetsuo turned over towards Izuku, "Izuku don't rely on just your punching arm! Your Persona's the most important asset you have to fighting Shadows! Let me demonstrate!" He pulls his mask off. "Come out Theseus! Cleave!"
Theseus appeared above charging energy before swinging his double bladed weapon slashing at the grinning devil pushing it back which dealt more damage then Izuku's punch.
Izuku's eyes widened in shock as the pumpkin's lantern began to glow.
"Agi!" It called as it shot small flames at Tetsuo.
"Shit!" Tetsuo grunted over before turning to Izuku.
The broccoli boy softly nodding pulling out his Evoker, and with slight hesitance raised it to his head shocking Ryukyu who haven't seen this but before she can stop him he called. "Come out Yukimura!" He pulled the trigger as Yukimura appeared above him. "Go! Tarukaja!" Yukimura raised his spear as Izuku glowed orange as he felt stronger before charging punching the woman pushing her back crying out. "I'm sorry for hitting you miss!"
"Oh Izuku, you, and your gentleman vibe." Tetsuo chuckled over before pulling out what looks like an Evoker but not the same. "This is how you strike there weaknesses' Izuku!"
To the shock of Izuku, Inko, and the Pro Heroes, the Evoker he's holding fired actual bullets striking Pixie knocking her down with a cry.
"Nice one." Ryuji grinned seeing that.
"Wait, this is a real gun?" Izuku asked looking at his Evoker in shock.
"The Evoker you have isn't a real gun but the one I have is." Tetsuo answered over with a grin. "Phantom Thieves use firearms in case things get too much if your Persona isn't available. Pixie is weak against firearms which is why she dropped down. Those other two aren't but they still pack a punch!" To show he fired his other bullets at the two remaining standing Shadows which caused damage until he ran out of bullets which he placed it in his holster before the pink devil Shadow rose up to attack. "Life Drain!"
At that Izuku notices red/black energy around him before feeling some parts of his life energy being drained from him. Gasping at that he collapsed to one knee. "What... what was that?"
Some of the devil's injuries healed as Tetsuo helps Izuku up. "That was Incubus' Life Drain which he steals some of your life to heal itself. It isn't much but it certainly stings." They looked over before Tetsuo nodded to Izuku who nodded back before using his Evoker. "Go Yukimura, Swift Strike!"
Yukimura at that starts thrusting his spear fast while slowly bringing it up dealing lots of damage but two critical hits knocking down the pumpkin, and Incubus down with Pixie.
"Alright now here is a important part Izuku! Use your Evoker like a gun, and aim at them!" Tetsuo stated over.
(HOLD-UP!)
Both Tetsuo, and Izuku aimed there guns at the three knocked down Shadows who are too weak to fight longer from this.
"W-Wait what is this for?" Izuku asked feeling a bit guilty at holding them at gunpoint, enemies or no enemies.
"You'll understand." Tetsuo explained softly.
"W-Wait please spare us!" the Pixie started speaking much to the shock of Izuku, Inko, and the Pro Heroes. "W-What do you want? Do you want money, or something!?"
Tetsuo only smiled over. "Money? Nah, that's not it. What I want... is your power."
Izuku blinked as the Pixie stared at him.
"My power, why should I give it to you when you're threatening me like this?" she asked him.
"Well killing isn't in my blood unlike you." Tetsuo answered over to her. "Besides I think we both can benefit from it."
"You know that might be true." Pixie replied before pausing. "Hey I remember now, I'm not a Shadow I belong to everyone in the sea of the soul! I am thou, thou art I. My name is Pixie, I'm looking forward to staying with you."
At that in front of everyone she fly up transforming into blue energy, and into Tetsuo's Phantom Thief mask flying, and merging with his current mask grinning while Incubus, and the pumpkin both vanished as the orb device stopped emitting sonar pulses joining back together to the two halves.
(Obtained: Pixie!)
"That what just happened, is that another part of having a Persona? So if you knock down the Shadows you can talk with them to gain more power but does that mean you summon both Theseus and Pixie now, that could double your abilities in combat, there has to be an upper limit, but then again this is so different from a traditional quirk, and..." Izuku started as he began thinking of all the possibilities of Tetsuo's power.
"Kid, kid." Izuku blinked feeling a shaking on his shoulder noticing Ryukyu smiling to him. "I get your confused but let him explain it."
"Oh... right, ok." Izuku nodded blushing.
Tetsuo only chuckled but states over towards him. "Well to get it straight, what you three just witnessed was the Power of the Wildcard within me which is what mom said is stronger then All Might if used right. I can talk to Shadows, and gain more abilities in a versatile manner so yes I can summon Pixie too but not her, and Theseus at once, only one at a time." He then pocket his hands as he explained it. "As for a limit, yes there is a limit how many I can have which is 5 right now but the number I can hold increases within time. Other drawbacks is that when I use a different Persona, I gain there strengths, and weaknesses so if a gun is used on me while I use Pixie it will inflict more damage to me then usual."
"Wait, so... that means your potential is basically limitless, and if you can change Personas quickly enough... you'd be the greatest hero ever by a huge margin!" Izuku cried in shock. "You could do things even All Might couldn't even dream of."
"Well... I wouldn't go that far, it takes a lot of time to get to that point and All Might's been the Number 1 Hero for a long time." Tetsuo admitted.
"Still this is indeed something. Can you demonstrate how you change?"
Nodding at Tsunagu's request Tetsuo pulled his mask. "Change, Pixie!" At that instead of Theseus, Pixie appeared above him winking. "Dia!" A green glow happened on Izuku healing him from Incubus' Life Drain.
"Looks like you're getting the hang of things, want to try something a little tougher?" Akira inquired to them.
They nodded as Ryukyu grinned. "Looks like it's our time to shine Tsunagu."
"It seems so." he nodded calmly.
They walked readying over as Tetsuo grinned. "Okay Mom... when your ready!"
"Alright, but be careful." she mentioned as the orb opened again only this time multiple shadows emerged before starting to merge together.
They watched in shock as the Shadows merged together before forming a large armored angel with a sword.
"Alright get ready Izuku this is for real!" Tetsuo readied with Izuku, and the Pro Heroes.
(Battle Theme: Keeper of Lust)
"Ha!"
Archangel charged in swinging his large blade which they dodged over before Tetsuo charged jumping up to slash down with his hunting knife that Archangel blocked with his sword punching Tetsuo back as Izuku moved summoning Yukimura who moved his spear to attack as Archangel clashed but Izuku moved to punch that Archangel ducked to dodge kicking him again.
"Time to see how I do." Best Jeanist charged forward for his attempt as Archangel noticed, and made a large slash down that he dodged jumping up behind Archangel before using his Quirk, Fiber Master on his costume grabbing both of Archangel's arms tying them together before he kicked Archangel's head that pushed the Shadow back.
The Shadow annoyed worked, and broke free turning to him, and charged slashing which Best Jeanist slide down avoiding the slash to the other side as he passed Ryukyu. "Your turn."
"On it!" Ryukyu grinned charging in. "Alright time to try that techniques I learned from that kid's book!" Dragon wings appeared on her back as she flew over as Archangel turned over not able to avoid a large dragon arm punching it square in the jaw launching it to the wall in a hard slam imprinting itself on it as it pulled itself out dazzled.
"Pixie, Zio!" Tetsuo called ripping of his mask as a bolt of electricity hit the Archangel.
"Gah!" the Archangel got knocked down from the effect.
"So now we try again to take it?" Izuku asked Tetsuo.
Tetsuo shook his head. "No now we try something called a All-Out Attack. Basically we can come together to form one colossal attack of a finisher to defeat him. On my signal all four of us will attack!"
"Right." Izuku nodded getting into position to attack.
"Alright. ALL-OUT ATTACK!"
At that all four charged in powers, and all against the Archangel striking him from multiple directions not giving him a chance to recover before Tetsuo got into a pose with a wink as Archangel was destroyed behind him.
"That... that was amazing!" Izuku cried before falling back trying to catch his breath since that was the first time he fought using his Persona.
The orb stopped generating joining back as Tsunagu, and Ryukyu helped the two out of the room. Junpei then smiled placing his daughter on the ground. "Alright Medea, use your Quirk, and dance with it like me, and mommy taught you to heal them."
Medea giggled starting to dance and sing.
She dances over not professional but enough to give an extra effect as light danced over her form as she danced over. She extended a hand to Tetsuo as the light went to him before she spin over directing her hand to Izuku who got coated as there injuries healed over. After a minute she stopped dancing, and singing as the lights stopped where the two feel there injuries are gone as she smiled before knelling down her Quirk using a bit of energy to heal them which Chidori picked her up.
"You're an amazing little angel Medea." Chidori smiled kissing her forehead.
"Mommy's right, you're our princess." Junpei grinned.
Medea smiled a bit tired before asking. "Can I... take a small nap please?"
"Of course you can sweetie." Chidori smiled as she turned to Mitsuru. "I'll be back after tucking Medea into her nap."
"I understand, have some sweet dreams little one." Mitsuru smiled gently before pausing. "Do you want me to make your room a little cooler while you sleep?"
Medea slowly gave a tired nod. Mitsuru nodded walking off with Chidori.
"Do you mind if I ask you all something?" Ryukyu mentioned to the Persona Users. "Just... how powerful can Tetsuo get?"
"If his skill is just right... probably strong enough to handle a God." Akira admitted over with a shrug. "Of course that's not really how strong but we dealt with some Gods some fake some real."
Izuku's eyes widened in shock at that.
"Well, to be fair that's because of the other nature of his power." Akechi pointed out. "One that he's already beginning to work on... his bonds."
"Social Links, emotional ties to others. Already formed some, and one was with Toga-san." Tetsuo added over his own thing before smiling. "But don't take this as saying, I'm using you all, I want to be friends with you all so don't rush it over."
"Of course not, that's not the kind of person you are." Izuku smiled. "Plus, in a way that kind of means Toga-san is helping you become a better hero right?"
Tetsuo nodded offering him a hand. "And in turn, you are too."
Izuku smiled taking it.
"Well, we should be going but let us know if you need anymore help." Ryukyu mentioned.
They nodded before Ryukyu grinned over to Tetsuo, and Izuku. "But don't think this is the last you two seen me. I'll be back."
They nodded at that.
"Thank you very much." Izuku bowed again.
She smiled as she with Tsunagu walked out before he turned to the two. "We will keep going on this." They nodded as he walked out just as Chidori, and Mitsuru walked back.
"How's Medea?" Tetsuo asked over.
"Fast asleep." Chidori answered smiling gently.
"Your daughter's Quirk is amazing miss. Dancing really did done a extra effect." Izuku smiled over.
"Yeah, but it still tires her out to use it too much." Junpei admitted before pausing. "Oh yeah, what about that friend of yours?"
"Kacchan told me he is settling into his own school, and had been helping some students. Including this girl who's Quirk makes her puke if she uses it too much." Izuku admitted over.
"It sounds like he's doing well, I'm glad." Mitsuru smiled hearing that. "And I'm sure his parents must be proud of him as well."
"Well he's working on his temper but he still has a short fuse." Izuku admitted over. "But at least he doesn't do what he does anymore."
"That's good, oh and actually did you all hear the news?" Naoto inquired. "Apparently All Might was seen recently, there was some kind of sludge villain that the other heroes couldn't... or perhaps wouldn't deal with."
"Do you have the report on hand?" Ann asked her.
"Yes." Naoto nodded handing it to Mitsuru. "Though I can't help but wonder what he was doing here."
Mitsuru checked the tablet seeing a green mass with eyes suffocating a pink skinned girl while Backdraft was putting out fires, Kamui Woods doing crowd control, Mt. Lady unable to get in due to narrow spaces, and Death Arms himself doing absolutely nothing but watching as the villain keeps suffocating the girl. Checking the date Mitsuru blinked. "This was the same day that Tetsuo started his first day at Aldera."
"What?" Tetsuo asked in shock seeing that.
"Then the same day that Mt. Lady made her debut." Izuku realized over. "But is that girl gonna-"
Suddenly what looks like a floating pair of clothes with the shape of a girl figure ran in from the civilian zone ignoring Death Arms' ordering her to come back, and starting to dig in the sludge to try freeing the pink skinned girl.
"What the... is that girl invisible?" Ryuji questioned before shaking his head only to notice the temperature start dropping rapidly.
Feeling that they looked over to see Mitsuru glaring at the tablet. The Sludge Villain moved to attack which the girl dodged before they hear something.
"I REALLY AM PATHETIC! LETTING KIDS DO MY JOB FOR ME!" Suddenly All Might himself charged in clad in a white shirt with brown jeans, and black shoes while blood is sprayed from his mouth. "YOU REALLY TAUGHT ME SOMETHING! TO GO PAST MY LIMITS!" All Might performed a smash at the villain who have little time to react as he was destroyed by the attack. "PLUS ULTRA!"
The weather changed from the attack starting to rain while the two girls both invisible, and the pink skinned girl who has raccoon like eyes watched from there spot on the ground in shock seeing this in front of them (Or they assumed since they can't see that invisible girl's expression).
"All Might, he saved them!" Izuku's eyes widened in awe as his admiration of the number 1 hero was obvious to everyone there.
Soon after gathering the really stunned villain, and All Might subjected to reports they noticed two things that makes everyone present disgusted.
The invisible girl like how Tetsuo was treated years before was being yelled at harshly by Kamui Woods, and Death Arms with red veins on there heads over for charging in like that while the pink haired girl was being praised for her 'bravery' by Mt. Lady, and Backdraft referring HER as the hero while the true hero is being chewed out.
Tetsuo's eyes widened seeing how that looked like what happened to him before with Skyla as the room became even colder and he could feel Fuuka looked ready to tear the heroes heads off.
Suddenly they begin hearing the pink haired girl making a statement.
"HEY!"
Surprised from the shout Death Arms, and Kamui Woods turned over as she ran hugging the invisible girl who's shaking close to tears from the yelling. She glared over. "How could you treat my best friend like that!? She just risked her life to rescue me, and THIS is your response!? How could you!"
"Little lady, we were doing all we can we didn't had the right-"
"Don't give me that lame excuse!" the girl yelled over at Death Arms as the two stood up. "You were doing nothing! Not negotiating, not trying to find anything to your advantage, you were just standing there like an idiot! The others we're doing there job, or held back by fair reasons but what was your excuse!? Huh!? Nothing! You were just standing there!"
"There wasn't a reason for her too-"
"At least she tried rescuing me while I was close to be suffocated to death!" the girl kept yelling at hero who this time flinched over. "And then your having ME take the credit when I was the victim over, and the true hero is Toru here!? Unforgivable! You four don't deserve the title of heroes, your wash-outs only caring about flaunting your suits, and powers instead of saving actual people! So don't you dare blame Toru for your inability to do your job!"
Then taking a deep breath she holds Toru before politely saying to them not turning. "Good day." Before she, and Toru walked out with the four standing in shock before media responses starting to go crazy over as the heroes tried to defuse the ridiculing they are experiencing while All Might stares off at the direction where the two girls headed off too.
"That... it's just like with me." Tetsuo whispered looking at the tablet. "Toru..."
"Toru Hagakure." Naoto identified the invisible girl. "A student at Mustafa Private Middle School, and a classmate of the girl she saved Mina Ashido. Toru's Quirk refracts the light on her body making her invisible but she can't turn it off. Mina's own Quirk lets her secrete acid from her body, and can control the corrosive nature while her skin tone was a mutation to make her immune to the effect. Personality-wise there both easygoing, and cheerful while Toru's shy at some points."
"Do you think we could go see them?" Izuku asked. "After what they went through I mean."
Tetsuo nodded. "I was thinking the same thing, Toru and I went through the same thing, and even if she has a quirk it wasn't going to do a lot to stop that villain yet she still tried to help her friend."
Naoto shrugged over. "I'm not sure, from my last report they been together with a Toshinori Yagi over at a big trash filled beach for several weeks."
"Oh..." Tetsuo looked down only go cry out as Fuuka embraced him tightly.
"Ah... Mamagishi." Tetsuo grunted from how tight.
"What's up with her?" Ryuji asked Mitsuru curiously.
"That... what you just saw was exactly how the heroes acted when Tetsuo tried to save his friend." Mitsuru stated coldly.
"Wait really?" Makoto asked shocked before growling. "And I thought this was recent activity of corruption."
"Apparently not." Akihiko frowned. "Hopefully Katsuki Bakugo won't end up like them after everything at Aldera."
"Well only one way to find out once the Entrance Exams happen." Tetsuo admitted before his stomach growled making him blushed embarrassed.
"Oh, I can make you something." Yukiko offered with a friendly smile.
"Oh I didn't know you cook." Inko admitted over towards her while the rest of the Investigation Team minus Chie, and Rise winced.
"That's because she can't. Well, she sort of can now but I wouldn't trust her in the kitchen without a lot of supervision." Yosuke explained.
"Well I'll watch her in that case." Inko decided over. "I'll help her out."
Izuku perked up looking over to his mother. "Maybe... we can have-"
"I know Izuku, a bowl of katsudon." Inko smiled knowingly. "And after checking the schedule with Mitsuru-kun, today's a free day so of course you can have a bowl."
Izuku smiled over excited hearing that while Tetsuo shook his head chuckling. "Boy loves his pork."
Izuku blushed slightly at that. So they headed off where they chat on things while Yukiko, and Inko together we're in the kitchen cooking together.
Things are looking well for the Kirijos but little did they know that recording they've seen earlier held much deeper meaning then they thought.
Weeks Earlier...
"Hey Toru don't worry about it."
It was sunset where two girls we're walking home together which are Mina, and Toru with Mina trying to comfort the invisible girl who is at the point of tears from the bigotry yelling she had endured for trying to rescue her best friend.
"Those guys don't know what there talking about." Mina tries again to calm her down. "You still tried to rescued me so your as much of a hero to me, and if they can't see that then that's there own problem."
"I don't know Mina... I mean, maybe they're right. What good is invisibility anyway, nobody would have even seen if I got hurt." Toru pointed out with an audible sigh since Mina couldn't see her. "If All Might wasn't there..."
"Hey, hey don't think like that." Mina placed her hands on her hips. "That guy tried to say his Quirk wasn't best suited to rescue me, and he was just standing that like an idiot. Your own Quirk 'isn't suited' as he calls it but you still went in to help me out." She then gave Toru a hug. "So don't let it discourage ya alright? You tried being a hero, and that's something to be proud of."
"Mina... yeah, you're right." Toru smiled hugging her back.
"Now come on I think your mother wants you to be safe, and would want to hear-"
"I AM HERE!" All Might suddenly popped up from an allyway in front of the two girls.
Shocked they both turned to him as Mina's eyes widened. "You... you're All Might, what were you doing in an alley?"
"AHAHA, I WAS HOPING, I WOULD CATCH YOU TWO HERE ALONE AWAY FROM MEDIA EYES!" All Might laughed over with his signature smile. "FOR, I NEEDED TO TALK WITH YOU YOUNG LADY." He was directing his attention towards Toru as he said this.
"Huh, you need to talk with me?" she asked shocked.
"WHY YES INDEED, YOUNG LADY. YOU SEE, EVEN I'D HAD FORGOTTEN WHAT A HERO IS SUPPOSE TO REPRESENT. A HERO IS SUPPOSE TO DO ALL THEY CAN TO DO THE RIGHT THING EVEN IF IT RISKS THERE LIVES, AND GO BEYOND FOR PLUS ULTRA. YOUR THE ONE WHO HAD REMINDED ME THE VIRTUE OF A HERO, AND YOU TRIED RESCUING YOUR FRIEND HERE." All Might then did a bow over. "SO I THANK YOU."
"I... I don't even know what to say, you're welcome?" Toru mentioned uncertainly. "I just... I was worried about my friend and nobody was doing anything. Well, I know one person who would have but he wasn't around so I just had to try and help my friend."
"A HERO IS ABOUT DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND WILLING TO PUT YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE FOR THE SAKE OF OTHERS. THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT, AND DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES YOU STILL ATTEMPTED TO RESCUE HER. THE START OF MANY GREAT HEROES BEGINS WHEN THERE BODY BEGAN MOVING ON THERE OWN, AND THAT HAPPENED TO YOU." All Might said over towards her. "SO I CAN SEE TRUE VALOR, AND VIRTUE WITHIN YOU. ALL I'M SAYING YOUNG LADY IS THAT," He pointed to Toru before loudly declaring. "YOU TOO CAN BE A HERO!"
"Of course she can, Toru and I are planning on going to U.A. once we graduate and entering the hero course." Mina pointed out. "Oh, my name's Mina Ashido."
"WELL I CAN SEE THE POTENTIAL SHE WILL HAVE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THOUGH BASED ON HER PSYCHE I CAN TELL SHE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH IN THE WAY OF STRENGTH. WELL I'D LIKE TO HELP YOU OUT YOUNG LADY." All Might said over to Toru. "I'D LIKE TO OFFER A CHANCE TO TRAIN YOU!"
"That... is this a dream, Mina am I dreaming?" Toru asked in disbelief. "The Number 1 hero is offering to train me?"
"Oh yeah he is! He can see you are a great hero, and like how I thought! You can really become amazing when you train, and-why is he smoking?"
Toru turned seeing All Might's form is letting out steam while the big guy froze.
"...CRAP." Suddenly All Might poof into smoke shocking them before they heard a cough. "Dammit, I didn't mean to show this off yet."
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Mina asked as she and Toru tried to wave away the smoke.
When the smoke cleared in place of All Might was a small skeletal like man with suken eyes with a large shirt, and pants wiping his mouth with a hankerchief.
"What just happened!?" Toru cried in shock.
"He's... tiny." Mina answered as they stared at the skeletal man in disbelief.
The man stared before he sighed over. "Well, guess there's no point denying it. I know this is unbelievable for you two to get but I am All Might... I look like this not because it's my way of getting awat from the media. The reason is much more serious then that." He pulled up his shirt revealing a real nasty looking scar on his body for them to see.
"Oh my... what happened to you?" Toru asked in shock.
"Gotten this from a big battle several years ago. You can't find the fight, I had it covered up to keep others from losing there faith." the man, All Might, explained over to them. "I managed to defeat the villain that done this to me but he didn't go down without a fight which I lost the entirety of my left lung, and most of my stomach. It also had an effect on my Quirk, now I can only use it 3 hours a day."
"That... maybe we can do something... a private hospital or... maybe a healing quirk?" Mina suggested.
"I appreciate you trying but nothing is able to repair the damage, I had suffered." All Might lowered his shirt before looking at the two girls. "But this was another reason I wanted to chat with you young lady." He was looking at Toru before he then said. "I would like to make you the successor of my power."
"The... huh?" she asked. "What do you mean?"
"For these past five years, I knew that the time to pass the torch over to someone else is nigh. I've decided that I would choose someone, I feel a spark from at doing something a true hero should do. Willing to risk there lives, and go above, and beyond, not cause of showing off there abilities, and increasing there wealth." All Might explained over to Toru. "Whenever I was asked what my Quirk was, I'd usually make a joke to dodge the question. That's because the nature of my Quirk must be kept in secrecy cause it's a sacred torch that's been passed down for generations growing stronger with each successor in mind." He raised his hand as it glowed in front of them. "The name of my power, is One For All."
"One... For All." they both repeated over as All Might lowered his hand.
"You can imagine, I wasn't able to find anyone who would use the Quirk. Mostly due to either lawsuits from bigotry, discrimination, or as you two just encountered yelled at for risking your lives." All Might added over before pointing at Toru. "So now young lady, will you be willing to take in this incredible power?"
"Is... is that even possible, I already have a quirk and people can't have more than one." Toru mentioned. "I mean, it would be a huge honor but... I don't know if it's possible."
"Oh people can have more then one like that I assure you. One For All is an enhancer type of Quirk which strengthens the power of your Quirk." All Might explained over. "And we can pass it off as a late dual-combination Quirk. There not unheard of, and there are stranger combinations so it shouldn't be weirder for it, and your own Quirk to be combined."
Toru put a hand on her chest as she closed her eyes though All Might couldn't tell before she took a breath. "Then, I'd be honored All Might, truly."
At that All Might puffed to his buff form calling. "EXCELLENT! THEN TOMORROW WE SHALL START THE PATH OF HEROISM!" He poof out rather quickly coughing blood from doing that when his time limit ran out holding a hand when the two tried moving to help him. Wiping his mouth he turned over. "Well I'm glad you agreed young lady. Do you know Takoyama Beach?"
"Yeah, we know it." Mina nodded.
"Then tomorrow we start training there."
"But why that place is filled with trash?" Toru asked over confused.
"Well before Quirks came in, people that were heroes were those like community service officers that clean trash, and doing what they can to make the community, and the environment a better place." All Might answered over to her. "Takoyama Beach used to be a beautiful resort for couples to go too but now it's a dump from mass pollution. And that... if I give you the Quirk now your limbs will pop off trying to contain the power."
"Pop off!?" Toru asked in horror.
"But don't worry that won't happen with you!" All Might quickly calmed her. "Cause we're gonna be using the beach for the heavy lifting to build your figure enough where your body will be compatible to hold it, I will also have a diet, and training plan in mind for it to be ready before the U.A. Entrance Exams so don't worry that won't be happening to you if you follow it to the last letter."
Toru blinked but nodded. "Oh… ok."
"Then I'm looking forward to training you miss..." All Might trailed off not getting her full name as it's just Toru to Mina earlier.
"Oh, Toru Hagakure." Toru answered.
He nodded before offering a hand. "And I'm Toshinori Yagi."
Toru took it. "Well, it's nice to meet you."
All Migh-er, Toshinori smiled as they shake hands before looking at the two. "And I don't suppose you two already know that One For All must be kept under tight lips. Anyone finds out they'd want to steal it for there own purposes." He then looked at Mina. "And since you were also involved, and spoke of true heroism, I'd see no harm for you to know, and train with her two as long as you can keep this a secret."
"Of course, we won't tell anyone." Mina promised.
Toshinori nodded over.
The next few weeks have been well... tough to say the least. Toshinori let them know of his plan which involves only have specific foods to eat, and training from the heavy lifting through the beach to clean off the area. Toru was at first overwhelmed at how much but determined to do it with Mina cheering her on. She did let Toru make sure she gets rest cause she can't be One For All's holder if she collapses, so she makes she to stop when Toru's about to drop. During the time, they heard about the Aldera Lawsuit, and the suing of the Toga Patriarch/Matriarch, and about this 'Persona' thing from both cases but they didn't pay much attention as they focused on there training.
And from there also is another student's case.
Meanwhile...
"Alright class quiet down." was the voice of a homeroom teacher in Rozaryu Middle School (Uraraka's school name before U.A.) clapping her hands to get the class' attention including a brown haired girl with blushes on her cheeks.
The students all turned to the teacher at that.
"I'd like to introduce a new student with us today. He came here from Musutafu, and a former student of Aldera Junior High." the teacher said before turning. "You may come in now."
Who walked in was Bakugo himself with his hands in his pockets looking at them with his usual scowl over as the teacher wrote his name on the board. "I'm not one for big speeches so I'll make this short, and simple: The name is Katsuki Bakugo, and I aim to become a great hero. As long as you don't blow a fuse in my temper we're square."
"Well eh... that just means he has a short fuse. He's working on it though." the teacher explained over so they wouldn't get the wrong idea. "You all treat him well alright?"
"Bakugo... hey wasn't his name in that lawsuit?" asked a boy with three eyes.
"Oh yeah, he's probably dangerous." agreed a girl who's nails kept changing color.
Meanwhile the brown-haired girl only blinked and looked at his expression with a frown before raising her hand. "The seat next to me is available."
The teacher nodded turning to Bakugo. "You will be sitting beside Miss Uraraka."
He nodded walking over before taking his seat beside the brown haired girl.
"It's nice to meet you." she smiled. " I'm Ochako Uraraka."
He looked at her before giving out a 'Hn'. "Well good to make your acquaintance Round Cheeks."
"Round cheeks?" Ochaco asked hearing that.
"Your cheeks are round. So round cheeks." Bakugo pointed out.
"Oh... well I guess that's true." Ochaco admitted.
"Now do those jellybean shaped things on your fingers just a decoration or do they do something?" Bakugo looked at her fingers.
"Oh... well they're for my quirk." Ochaco explained. "I can float things I touch."
"Any limit how much?" Bakugo asked over to while he's not as passionate as studying Quirks as Izuku, he does like to know the power of beings around them.
"Um... well I've never tried to see what my limits are." Ochaco admitted before pausing. "Well, maybe we can see after class? If you don't mind?"
He grinned nodding as the teacher called over. "Bakugo-san, Uraraka-san no talking in class."
"Oh, sorry." Ochaco apologized with a blush.
Bakugo only 'Hn' again as they went over class together. During the week Bakugo gets along with Uraraka about Quirk Training as they figured her Quirk limits, and love for mochi (seriously he hasn't seen a day where she went without mochi), and chat together about school life where he figured she is heading to U.A. cause of money as her parents' company is poor, and low on money so she wants to be a hero to solve there financial burden, he doesn't look it but Bakugo is a little impressed.
During the week he can see a violet haired boy getting bullied by others (Bakugo intimidated them to leave him alone) but his main tormentor was a girl who's hair is the same color as Skyla only she has crimson red eyes who verbally assaults him calling him, and his Quirk weak, and unbecoming of a hero. In most cases he sees his past self in that girl, and Izuku in the boy. So one time at practice he decided to ask Ochako about it.
"Hey, Round Cheeks, I got something to ask." Bakugo called over to her with his usual scowl but with some warmth.
(A/N (Ulrich362): No, they aren't using their quirks illegally like at Aldera, also Bakugo is still getting his therapy for his anger and quirk control.)
"Huh, what is it?" Ochako asked him curiously.
"That kid always getting pushed around by that bitch. What can you tell me about them?"
Ochako frowned over. "You mean Isogai-san? Well he's a big bookworm, and had been like this for a while. He's one of the smartest people in class but some people like to push him around cause of his Quirk. He can summon a small computer that can act like a regular computer for quick access to the internet, and can also be good at tinkering machines."
"Sounds like damn nerd, but that's his business I guess." Bakugo shrugged before frowning and wiping his forehead. "How the hell is it so hot today?"
"And that girl... she's Mizu Kishinuma." Ochako brought up the tormentor. "A stuck up bully who been here since last year. She gets into Isogai-san's business for any reason, and constantly tells him his Quirk is worthless, and that he doesn't deserve to be a hero. He isn't even planning to be a hero, just heading to U.A. for the Support Course but she still gets in his business. Doesn't help his uncle was Kamoshida."
"Kamoshida?" Bakugo questioned. "Who the hell is that? Wait... you mean that athlete who used his athletics quirk to win some kind of sports tournament a long time ago?"
"Yeah." Ochako nodded over to confirm before looking at him. "AKA the first target of the Phantom Thieves who had him confessed of abuse of verbal, sexual, and physical that the Principal of Shujin Academy somehow had everyone keep a tight lips on it instead of telling the police or the heroes about it. Isogai-san isn't him that's for sure, but Kishinuma-san is making him believe he's going to be."
"Who cares who his family was, if the nerd wants to go into support to help the real heroes then let him." Bakugo pointed out showing how he'd started to mellow a bit though he was still confident in his own abilities. "What kind of quirk does this Kishinuma have anyway?"
"Well... she uses her eyes to freeze anyone into place." Ochako admitted over. "I never seen it but I'd certainly wouldn't want to be in that crossfire."
Bakugo frowned at that only to look over as his eyes narrowed. "Great, I need to go deal with something..."
With that he walked off where Hound Dog was waiting. Hound Dog was leaning against the door looking over noticing him. "Ah Bakugo-kun. So what was your day today like?"
"Same as usual." he shrugged only to frown. "So what is it today, learning not to yell at damn extras again?"
"You haven't done that have you?" Hound Dog asked in a gentle tone.
"... Less." Bakugo relented after a few moments before clenching his fists. "The only person who's going to be the next All Might is me, not any of those damn extras who are just wasting everyone's time."
"Remember what we discuss. Be more humble in it. It's not wrong to dream but to better yourself is to lose that superiority complex." Hound Dog stated over to him. "But I notice you look a bit distracted about something. You want to tell me?"
"It's nothing." Bakugo mentioned quickly only to pause and look up. "What do you know about some athlete named Kamoshida?"
"His change of heart was all over the news along with the debut of the Phantom Thieves." Hound Dog explained over to him. "Nezu done his research, and seen what Kamoshida was before he confessed. Why do you ask?"
Bakugo closed his eyes at that. "A classmate mentioned someone's related to him... it got me thinking that's all."
"Ah yes, I remember Power Loader mention someone relating to Kamoshida would be attending U.A. next year at the Support Course." Hound Dog recalled. "Do you know what the kid is like?"
"A nerd, look is this going to take a long time?" Bakugo questioned. "It's later than usual and I need to head home for the night."
"We're just doing our usual checking over." Hound Dog stated before nodding, "Alright that's all I need now. I'll see you tomorrow."
Bakugo nodded as they both walked out together. So throughout a couple of weeks Bakugo, and Ochacko decided to try talking to Isogai but he just avoids them while Kishinuma glared over when she can over. Soon there came a day that really set Bakugo, and Ochako off.
It was a normal day at class where they didn't notice Isogai in the classroom where a hand was raised.
"Miss Tamaki?" a blonde haired boy with a lightning bolt in his hair asked (Denki Kaminari is he remembers but he just calls him Dunce Face).
"Yes Kaminari?" the teacher asked calmly.
"Where's Isogai-san?"
Miss Tamaki looked over seeing the empty chair before frowning. "That's strange. I remember seeing him this morning. Maybe he went home?"
The class chat before someone notices something, and stood up shocked. "Whoa, what the!?"
"Sir get back to your seat." Miss Tamaki replied over sternly.
"But it's Isogai-san, he's on the roof looking like he's gonna jump!" the student called over catching everyone's attention.
(Cue Theme: Tension)
"The hell!" Bakugo questioned before frowning. "Screw it!"
He ran to the window and blasted a hole in it before using his quirk to blast up to the roof where he grabbed Isogai (who closed his eyes, and let himself fall down) and threw him to safety. "What the hell are you thinking you damn extra!?"
"Agh!" Isogai landed on the ground not to hard looking up in shock at his savior. "Y-You?"
"What the hell were you thinking? What happened?" Bakugo snapped angrily.
Isogai only looked down. "Why did you rescue me? I'm pathetic, nothing... Only someone who's been seen as the nephew of a rapist who can't do jack shit to only summon a computer."
"So what?" Bakugo questioned glaring at him. "You're going to kill yourself for it? Your uncle was a piece of shit fine whatever. Be better than him."
"But I-"
"He's right you know."
They looked over seeing Kishinuma leaning against the doorway of the entrance with crossed arms looking disgusted. "You should've let him carry on, blondie."
"Move aside!" cried the voice of Miss Tamaki along with several other teachers.
The girl turned her eyes glowing freezing Miss Tamaki in place as she closed the door locking it. "Your not gonna interfere here this time Tamaki." She turned her Quirk off as the teachers notice the door's locked leaving the three alone as she glared at Bakugo. "Like I said you should've let him off himself. He's gonna be a rapist in the future just like dear old uncle." Isogai looked down frustrated at this as she continued. "And his Quirk can only summon a computer for internet access. How boring not suitable for a hero."
"What the fuck are you talking about, you stuck up bitch!?" Bakugo was honestly disgusted over with her not believing she was his counterpart in this school.
"I'm saying this school or the world rather doesn't need someone like him." Kishinuma stated over with no remorse. "So yesterday, I told him a solution for his problem. Do you know what I said?" She gave a cruel smirk declaring. "'You know, if you want to be someone else so bad, then take a swan-dive off the roof!'"
That made Bakugo froze over hearing those words. Although he's working on losing his many personality traits that Aldera instilled within him, there is still the memories of protecting Izuku by discouraging him enough to not be a hero anymore. Izuku managed to resist all his attempts, and when at the last year Bakugo was starting to be at his limit over how much more he can get him to stop. So at the day Tetsuo attended Aldera where Bakugo was looking to find a moment alone with Izuku (he couldn't at Lunch Time since Tetsuo was with him he knows better than to harass Mitsuru's son unprovoked), he had intended to say something that's sure to shake Izuku's confidence. The exact words were.
'You know if you want a Quirk so bad, maybe take a Swan Dive off the roof for the next life!'
Yeah plain suicide baiting. He never gotten around to it thankfully, and gotten over that he almost given a suicide threat to Izuku of course that doesn't mean he hasn't felt terrible for that. Hound Dog assures him that as long as he knows he's wrong, and keeps his cool there's a chance his hero career will be saved. But unlike him who was planning to tell Izuku that just out of concern, this girl...
This BITCH said it for her own amusement on Isogai.
"And then you went, and ruined that glorious moment." Kishinuma glared at him in disgust. "I read about your reports Katsuki Bakugo, you were like me, both destined for greatness not letting the weak bother us. If the Kirijo bastards haven't made you think it was wrong then we could've been the most powerful duo in the school. Yet you thrown it away for things like them," she pointed to Isogai who flinched. "Who don't deserve your attention. What a pity so much potential down the drain..." She shrugged closing her eyes shaking her head.
"Potential huh, you're right... it is down the drain." Bakugo sighed. "There are three people up here but only one of us is going to U.A."
"And why is that?" Kishinuma asked him with a raised eyebrow.
"We both used our quirks illegally." Bakugo answered her.
Kishinuma scoffed over. "It's called an 'accident' sweetheart. Nobody said anything about 'accidents'." She then smirked over since this incident will be covered up by her family, and there's nothing Bakugo can do about that. "And hey, if you are willing to listen your own usage off as an 'accident' then let the eventual rapist drop down."
"Forget it."
"Huh?" Kishinuma raised an eyebrow.
"Being a hero is about taking responsibility for your actions. If I let this incident go by letting an extra off himself, then how can I call myself a hero? Your right we are the same... but the difference is that I don't intend to let things slide under the rug." Bakugo glared over towards her. "What it means to be a hero is to risk everything for what you believe in! THAT INCLUDES THIS HERE SO SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH!"
(Cue Theme: Awakening)
"Good, you finally realized now."
Suddenly Bakugo feels a ringing headache in his head with golden eyes from the voice in his head.
"AARRGH!" Bakugo cried clutching his head. "What the hell's going on!?"
"Taking responsibility for the deeds you done is always a mighty fine trait for you to have. Others coward away from it, feeling the sins crawling on there backs. They seek to blame others who don't deserve it, keeping the truth hidden within secrets. But those who are willing to bear the chains of there actions are always willing to put everything they believe in at stake, even if the end result means nothing. Just as you are doing." Bakugo opened his eye in pain seeing a shadow of himself with glowing white eyes staring at him from the ground. "I am thou, thou art I... Call onto me, and release your anger!" It raised it's hand for Bakugo to fist bump.
Bakugo looked before taking the hand. The shadow flew into him as Bakugo softly stood up growling. "Alright... let's do it!" A mask formed on his face taking Kishinuma by surprise stepping back as Bakugo takes the mask pulling it off as blood was ripped screaming. "Terminator!"
A explosion of blue fire happened as this happened.
(Cue Theme: Will Power)
Looking over they see Bakugo is now wearing a brown long sleeve shirt with a black vest while wearing demin shorts, and black boots while he has a brown visor mask before he looked up smirking.
Above him is a muscular man wielding a shotgun having sunglasses, and a black leather jacket with blue jeans.
"Wh-What the fuck?" Kishinuma asked shocked.
"Now I know... a hero is willing to risk anything for there beliefs. Including there future for others!" Bakugo called. "So stay out of his fucking way!"
Kishinuma growled over. "You think some light show will help!?" She reaches in her backback pulling something out. "Try this!" She tossed it on the ground revealing an orb as it embedded itself before splitting revealing it's the same device used to summon Shadows. It emit sonar pulses before some Shadows appeared transforming into some enemies. "Kill him now! Kill them both!" Heeding her command the shadows readied on to take.
"Time to dance." Bakugo armed himself with a double club that appeared in his hand readying. "Stay behind me extra!"
"Don't need to tell me twice..." Isogai admitted in awe seeing this.
"Snap!" Bakugo called as the Terminator fired a shot at the Shadows.
The Shadows got bit but a Shadow one of the pumpkins charged in attacking with his lantern that Bakugo dodged before smacking with his double club pushing it back before kicking another Shadow which was a slime like creature back before a Shadow that was green skinned girl with a flower on her head charged to attack which he avoided, and headbutted it with before twirling his double club at another, and then called over. "Terminator, Triple Down!"
The Terminator fired several shots on the shadows knocking some down, and destroying some over before an Incubus moved to attack but Bakugo blocked over, and swung his double club striking it away before then punching it hard destroying it.
Kishinuma grunted deep at this before pressing some buttons on her wrist like device as the orb generated more Shadows as Bakugo grinned sadistically. "Get all the weaklings you want, there not gonna stop me!"
"Eventually you tire out." Kishinuma glared over. "You won't stop them in time before your dead."
"Like hell, I will!" Bakugo kept brawling with the Shadows over as he defended Isogai over against several new shadows before the pumpkin fired a flame attack striking him but didn't bother him much as he smirked over to the poor shadow. "Sorry but fire doesn't fucking bother me! DIE!" He summoned Terminator who used another Snap at the pumpkin which destroyed it but more replaced it.
Kishinuma smirked over. "Just give it up, no matter how many you defeat more will come."
Bakugo frowned before an idea came to him. 'Well, if I already wasted my chance to go to UA no point holding back.'
With that thought Terminator attacked the Shadows as Bakugo ran to the device and just blew it to pieces with his quirk.
"Wha-No!" Kishinuma cried seeing that in shock.
At the device's destruction all of the remaining Shadows retreated or vanished leaving the area there in.
"You goddamn fucker! You ruined everything! Everything!" Kishinuma stomped like a spoiled brat. "First you let the rapist live, and now ruined my big time fun!" Bakugo looks disgusted over her before she glared. "You've done it now... I'll kill you." She pulled out a knife before her eyes glowed crimson before Bakugo felt his body freezing up.
"Damn it... what the hell?" Bakugo groaned. "What are you going to do now?"
"Now, your dead for good." Kishinuma walked towards him knife in hand with her glare her eyes glowing. "Too bad you'll be remembered in history as the person who would dare bully, or assault Mizu Kishinuma unprovoked with your dual Quirk, you could've been much more."
Suddenly the glow in her eyes died as Bakugo felt his body moving again. Gasping he fell to his hands and knees.
"What?" Kishinuma asked stopping in shock seeing him moving. "M-My Quirk, why isn't it-"
Suddenly a white scarf wrapped around her immobilizing her as she cried out slamming on the ground with a hand on her head. Just as that happened someone else otherside from the person apprehending Kishinuma went, and shot the lock on the door opening it to allow the teachers to head in.
"W-What is going-" Kishinuma tried to move free but the scarf is too strong, and her Quirk is somehow not working.
"I erased your Quirk." She looked seeing who was on her was Aizawa who's eyes are glowing as his hair is defying gravity in the air with a glare. "You aren't able to trap anyone else until I look away or blink but I'm not going too."
Hound Dog arrived with the teachers, and nodded over. "Eraserhead, Snipe, good thing you two came so quickly after the call."
"Thi... what's going on?" Isogai asked in shock seeing the three pro heroes.
Just them Ochako ran in running over. "Katz! Katz!" She ran to Bakugo knelling over him as he breathed. "Are you alright?"
"Round cheeks, what are you doing up here?" Bakugo asked before groaning and rubbing his head only to collapse to his butt again.
"Well of course, I was worried about you." Ochako said over to him. "You saved Isogai, and then you were confronted by Kishinuma-san who brought monsters here! Then next something happened to you, I got to see!"
"You saw all of that?" Bakugo questioned before sighing. "You're going to UA right?"
"Well yeah... but never mind me are you, and Isogai-san alright?" Ochako asked over to him.
"They'll be fine." They looked seeing Snipe walking over examining them. "Bakugo has some small injuries but nothing too bad, and the suicidal looks to be uninjured. They should still get checked out just in case as we take THIS one to the station." He was gesturing to Kishinuma who had her eyes covered by Hound Dog allowing Aizawa to cancel his Quirk as he sighed taking eye drops. He then looked at Bakugo. "And you laddy, trust me the fact you committed illegal Quirk Usage is the least of our worries right now. Let Hound Dog decide what to do but from the case that is described here, I don't think your chance is gone quite yet."
"Don't ridicule me, I know full well what I did today. I threw away my chance at going to U.A." Bakugo snapped before frowning. "Round Cheeks, if you see someone named Izuku Midoriya, or Tetsuo Kirijo let them know I blew it."
Suddenly his eyes widened as he passed out from exhaustion.
"Katz!" Ochako cried worried as she, and Isogai checked him over.
Snipe looked over to Hound Dog who helped get Kishinuma on Aizawa's shoulder for him to take her away. "Hound Dog, what are you gonna do?"
Hound Dog stared looking at Bakugo who's Phantom Thief outfit vanished from him before he sighed looking at Snipe. "I'll get his side of the story, and decide the best course of action. Depending on how he responds, will decide his future over at U.A."
"That makes sense." Snipe nodded turning to Ochako and Isogai. "Get him to the infirmary you two."
They nodded helping him up. Hound Dog looked at Isogai who noticed. "Young man be sure to expect me to talk to you about your near suicide attempt." Isogai shuddered but nodded helping Ochako carry Bakugo out. Hound Dog then turned over to Snipe. "You better inform Best Jeanist about this little incident. No doubt the Kirijo Group would want to know about him having a Persona." They were alone so he was safe to mention it. "Along with that kind of device that girl used." He looked to the destroyed remains of the orb.
"I'll call him now." Snipe nodded.
A few hours later...
Bakugo groaned as he slowly sat up realizing he was in the infirmary as he put his head in his hands.
"How you feeling?" the school nurse noticing him waking up walked over to help him sit up.
"For everything that happened, not as bad as I should." he admitted. "Is my bag here, I need to make a call."
"She has it here. She's been with you since you passed out." the nurse gestured as Bakugo looked over noticing Ochako had fallen asleep beside the bed on a chair with his backpack in her lap. "But don't move for a sec. Someone walks to talk to you when you wake up."
Bakugo sighed but nodded only to frown seeing Ochaco. "Round Cheeks, get up."
At the call, and shaking on her shoulder, Ochako slowly woken up. Noticing him her eyes widen. "Your awake!" She hugs him deep. "I was so worried about you when you passed out like that Katz!"
He blinked at that before frowning. "Well, worry in the classroom round cheeks I have to talk with someone."
"Oh we're were interrupting something?"
They looked seeing Hound Dog with Nezu himself on his shoulder the Principal staring with a smile at the picture of Ochako embracing Bakugo.
"Uh n-no no no no nothing! I was just worried about him is all!" Ochako let go embarrassed over.
"Nothing wrong with that. I apologize for us coming in without a knock." Nezu said over her bowing his head. "Also I apologize but we like to talk to Bakugo-kun in private. Mind giving us a minute?"
Ochako frowned but nodded. "Just... please don't be hard on him. He saved one of our classmates, and risked his future for him." She turned kissing Bakugo's cheek, and walked out.
Bakugo blinked watching her leave before sighing. "Let me guess, I'm here to be told I blew my one chance? I know, I fucked up."
"Well that should mean you know why I'm here." Nezu dropped on a chair from Hound Dog's arm before Hound Dog himself sat down beside him. "However from the different opinions on your classmates, I'd like to hear from your own words over what happened. Mind telling me what happened a few hours earlier, Bakugo-kun?"
"I was sitting in class like normal when someone noticed that extra Isogai was missing... the teacher said she'd seen him earlier and then someone saw he was going to jump to his death... I blew a damn hole in the window and used my quirk illegally to throw him back onto the roof instead of the ground." Bakugo answered.
"And they also said they witnessed an explosion of blue over. Can you describe that?" Nezu asked over.
Bakugo blinked before pausing as his eyes widened. "That was... shit, so that's what Kirijo went through?"
"It is as I figured from the reports." Nezu gave his signature grin. "Well Young Bakugo, it looked as though you have the potential to wield a Persona."
"I guess so... damn my head is still pounding." Bakugo groaned. "I end up with the worse headache of my life, throw away my chance to be a hero at all, and to make things worse I did it all for some useless extra who doesn't even plan on going into the Hero Course... he's going for support."
"Well actually... your chance is still there." Nezu brought up for him.
"What?" Bakugo questioned sitting up in shock. "I was already at risk for using my quirk illegally and I somehow think deliberately damaging public property counts as using it illegally."
"Hound Dog would you care to explain?"
Hound Dog nodded at his boss' suggestion as he turned over to Bakugo. "Well Bakugo-san, throughout the several weeks you are showing improvement. You've been keeping your temper in check, and didn't use your Quirk for any reason. You also went around, and made friends to where you practice Quirks with them. You also been looking over for everyone rather then yourself for a change, and the true test to see if you improved came today."
He closed his eyes over. "Many great hero stories start from there bodies moving there own, and thinking fast. In your case when you spot Isogai-san doing his suicide attempt, your first instinct was to charge in to rescue him whatever means necessary. Though you damaged the window, you were able to rescue him, and protect him from those monsters that girl summoned over. If you done that cause you wanted too, or cause your frustrated then that be pushing it. However after hearing you broke it so you can get through it to rescue him that's something else. Indulgence, and had to are very different things. Besides..."
He opened his eyes looking at Bakugo's. "I believe you deserve a second chance cause your actions today indeed proved that you are willing to rescue anyone no matter how small, or little they are. Heroes strive of betting it all, and go beyond Plus Ultra. You done that yourself when you risked your chance at U.A. to rescue him. So for that you earned yourself a second chance at it but unlike right now this won't happen again. So don't really waste this one."
Bakugo just looked at them in disbelief before looking down. "Getting into UA must be easier than I thought."
"Don't take this as saying we're showing favoritism Bakugo." Nezu clarified over that had nothing to do with it. "We believe you be the kind of hero to take the world by storm. It be such a shame to have that out in heroics with how gifted, and skilled you are." Before then making a stare which Bakugo froze. "But don't think that another chance like this get repeated again. This is really your final last chance, and even if you rescue someone, it'll be crossed out. So when another situation happens which won't be for a while, try thinking of something to prepare so you won't resort to your Quirk. Or your Persona."
"Right." Bakugo nodded before sighing as he closed his eyes.
