Chapter 61: End of an Icon
Izuku was starting to get more worried than he had previously been about the demonic invasion when the staff room which was visible from the stadium started glowing brightly and space started to shudder in revolt around it. He could already see Loona and a woman he had never seen before sprinting towards him with Himiko and Eri tucked under Loona's arms. The puppets clinging to the other woman as they went.
"HIT THE DECK!" Loona screamed before jumping into one of the many trenches made in the area by the defending students and teachers.
Izuku barely had time to before a burst of energy rattled out from the staff room blowing out the windows as a white light filled the sky, rippling across the barrier which in turn set loose a shower of sparks.
"WHO THE HECK DID THAT?!" Charlie screamed as she slowly got back to her feet.
"I think it was Leviathan." The woman who had ran with the puppets replied as she slowly climbed from the trench, dirt covering her face and dust in her hair.
"What did mum do?" Izuku asked in worry. Magic was not his forte and to him it looked like a massive explosion.
"She strengthened the wards." Loona explained as she climbed out with Eri clinging to her side. "Okay squirt hop off."
"No." Eri replied bluntly as she refused to let go. "Making sure you're safe."
"Great." Loona sighed, her ears drooping slightly.
"KUR EN TUK!" An enraged voice echoed out over the city drawing attention to the Icon of Sin trying to fight something on a semi constructed rooftop while being shot from different directions.
[With Miruko]
Miruko was frankly put beyond PISSED. First she had her day ruined by a demonic incursion, then she found out her drinking buddy Mt Lady was potentially crippled for life thanks to some demon and now she was being slapped around by a half strength icon of all things! Some hapless Whiplash tried to grab her from the left only for her to grab the barbed chain, yank the snake demon towards her and grab it by the arms. She planted a foot firmly on its chest and pulled back it's arm with pushing with her foot. A wet cracking filled the air as the demon's arms were ripped loose before she proceeded to crush its head with its own arms.
"Drycleaning is going to be a bitch." Miruko snarled in anger at the state of her costume.
"KUR EN TUK!" Her father screamed before unloading on the icon using his customised triple barrel Minigun with a hail of lead.
"JUST FUCKING DIE ALREADY!" Daisy shouted in frustration as she proceeded to unleash multiple shotgun blasts at the massive demon.
The Icon of Sin roared in pain as more of its armored flesh was torn loose under the onslaught of bullets. The creature brough down its fist into the roof of the building causing large sections of it to collapse and fall to the street bellow. Miruko jumped onto it's arm along with her mother before they both rushed up it, intent of finishing it off as quickly as possible. The Slayer however merely swapped to his sword, an accused weapon known as The Crucible Blade which was forged in pure argent and the essence of the Makyrs themselves to form a weapon capable of killing demon, angel, mortal and god alike. The blade itself was made of a red energy composed of pure argent and sentinel which could slice through even the thickest armor with ease.
The man kept into the air, blade raised high as he brought it down into the exposed brain the the demon as his wife's punch and daughter's kick also connected with the same organ. The creature let loose a rattling death howl of torment before energy arced across its body splitting its muscle from bones, tearing ligaments and burning arteries.
There was a flash of red lighting before the creature burst, it's entrails blasting across the city like a water balloon filled with red paint across a sidewalk. The creatures mewling around its feet were crushed under the falling bulk and many buildings close to the blast were flooded to the second floor before it seeped outwards towards the edge of the barrier, sizzling and boiling away when it came into contact with it.
Mr Squishy blinked dumbly at it floated in the gore, unconcerned that it currently had three individuals clinging to it as it waded it's way towards the school. It's objective was completed and it had nothing else to do but see that the small horned one was well.
Meanwhile Goose was in heaven. The cantankerous old feline didn't normally indulge in binge eating but when the fluffy ear ones provided a feast of demon meat who was he to argue? Any who had survived and stuck around the initial blast would of been shocked to see a one eyed ginger cat casually devouring chunks of demon flesh the size of cars as it wondered through the city, jumping from light post to light post to stay out of the gore which would surely require it to take a bath to get clean again.
"Gross." A skeletal blonde groaned as he swam upto the surface of the gore. Goose paid them no mind, atleast the one who smelt of flame and litter trays wasn't here, last he saw that one had been flung against the barrier and knocked out by one of the tasty red things with horns.
[With IMP]
"I hate you." Blitz huffed in deadpan as he clutched to a light pole, his pants soaked in blood. "I hope you both know that cleaning bills for my suit are coming out of your pays."
"Well technically we're employed by Alister and Leviathan for this job boss." Moxxie pointed out.
"Leave him alone Blitz, he's got tha jitters." Millie pointed out at the way her husband was still twitching slightly from the adrenaline. "Sides part of the payment was in the blessed bullets."
"Well I will admit that's a plus atleast." Blitz deadpanned in annoyance.
[One city over from Mustafu]
In a waffle house the attendant gulped nervously as she received a text from head management. She looked up at the few patrons who had actually ordered something, most were just gathered around the small TV in the corner displaying the news regarding the attack one city across. She cleared her throat and pressed a button that turned off the TV which was strapped under the counter. Instantly there was murmurs of annoyance and discontent from the patrons asides an elderly gentleman who looked like Morgan freemen who merely looked up from his plate of waffles in confusion.
"Attention everyone, due to the situation in Mustafu, Waffle house is closing until further notice!" The attendant explained loudly. There was noticeable panic in the patrons who quickly rushed out the door leaving the old man looking a bit confused. "Sorry sir, you have the leave?"
"May I ask what has happened young miss?" He asked with a gentle tone.
"Demons apparently attacked Mustafu, probably just some weird quirk." She shrugged.
"I see." The man sighed as he stood up, leaving a ¥4000 note by his plate. "Your tip miss, I've got to deal with this before things get worse."
[Back at UA]
"So, who do you think was behind this all?" Shoto asked in his usual monotone, ignoring the fact that half the city was currently soaked in demon blood.
"I'm going with the crazy guy who stabbed the shitty Pomeranian and the girl from 1b who launched Eri over the wall." Ochako deadpanned at the half and half teen as she helped Kyoka remove the blood from her wings using a small towel created by Momo. Said woman was currently helping clean up the mess by using towels, sponges and mops made with her quirk.
Eri was giggling as she played in the gore soaked grass with the puppets who were half submerged in it all. The blonde woman
"But it all seemed so organised, there were portals everywhere that just needed powering." Charlie added with a concerned look on her face.
"Well it may mean a well organised group was behind it." Ochako admitted. "Like maybe one of the renegade factions in hell."
"It could be the Nazis." Shoto spoke up earning disbelieving looks from the others.
"Todoroki... That's just stupid." Ochako deadpanned.
[Elsewhere elsewhere in Japan]
A shadowed figure stood in front of a giant white screen in the middle of a massive Wearhouse. The figure was short, fat, red skinned and wearing a white coat, their sleeve had a red band emblazened with a swastika. In front of him stood a legion of people in black armor and a large number of supposed pro heroes and some villains. "Gentlemen, ve are Em El Ay und Nazi demons." He grinned widely, deliberately sounding out the letters instead of merely saying the full name.
"Seig heil! Seig heil!" The majority of the crowd cheered with raised hands in a nazi salute. Many of the MLA side looked uncomfortable with the notion but we're cowed into silence by others.
"Wiz elp vrom our allies we av gotten back to earth to have anozer chanze tankz to da icon of Sin distracting za armies of hell!" The man crowed.
"Seig heil! Seig heil!" The crowd chanted back.
"Und ve vant var!" The man continued, his hands spread wide.
"Seig heil, seig heil!" The crowd called once more.
"Und ve... u-und aaa-AHHHH ACHOOTZ!" The figure sneezed violently, their shoulders jerking as they did so.
"gesundheit! gesundheit!"
End.
