Howdy, this is it, the final chapter. I do apologize for how long it took I decided that I wanted my viewers to have a good idea on what I wanted so I may have gone beyond what I'd originally planned. As such this is the result, a full synopsis on what could've been in the form of quick drafts that I spoke into existence. As the 'Introduction' will tell you I used text to speech to try and speed up the process but I really overestimated myself in how quick I'd get this out so I apologize to those who though this would be out a month after the last. Anyway I hope you all enjoy what could have been.
Introduction
Welcome to the last chapter for my Izuku Midoriya: Ghost Rider story. As I promised I will be going over what would have happened in the chapters and just generally how the story would have gone. Now, so I could get this to you sooner I am using speech to text so this is everything I'm saying I'm not writing this completely just going back through it to make sure it's grammarly correct or the wording is correct or the whatever the f*** is correct and this thing censors you so there is that. Also I may miss some things in my grammar checks so sorry in advance.
Well you're not here to hear me ramble on so I thank you for coming into the chapter and for reading my story so without further ado let's get into it.
Chapter Seven: Hosu
Now the chapter Hosu itself was not in the original story, the one on Wattpad, it was added in as I realized I didn't do anything with the hero killer and completely forgot about him so I changed that. The chapter would have begun with Izuku back in the apartment. He would have been on the couch thinking about that voice he heard in the previous chapter and wondering what it was, who it was and why he heard it. Before he can make any headway on it or drive himself crazy Inko would have come into the room a little panicked. Basically she says Izuki had left her suitcase filled with clothes and she needed Izuku to take the clothes to her.
Izuku agrees because you know, good brother and stuff and he would have to go to Hosu because as Izuku was in the original, Izuki has One for All so she's training with Gran Torino and I'm aware that Gran Torino doesn't actually live in Hosu but I had changed it because otherwise it wouldn't have made sense that Izuku was there because from what I can tell by the time the news would have gotten to Izuku it would have been basically over anyway so it wouldn't have mattered so I had to change that.
Izuku would have driven to the place wnd be greeted by Gran Torino izaku would explain his presence and Gran Torino would have grumpily mentioned how Izuki seems to be an airhead and forgetful, basic Gran Torino grumpiness.
Izuku would ask about her progress and just what they've been doing and Gran Torino would be a little bit cagey saying that her quirk's being trained so she could lift more. Izuku understands that and then Izuki would have come into the picture. Izuki would be surprised that Izaku was there. Izuku would remind about her missing luggage and she's basically just being embarrassed about it.
A little while later Izuku would leave but not before deciding to go around the city as he hasn't been to hosu and as I've written he's a bit more of a wanderer now which makes more sense considering you know, Ghost Rider stuff.
Afterward I'd have had the POV switch to Izuki later in the night fighting the Hero Killer she is simply trying to buy time for backup but even using her quirk to push the hero killer back and using one for all to try to evade the hero killer she's having a lot of difficulty as he keeps trying to blitz her which is slowly starting to wear her down.
She's thinking about Iida who is on the ground paralyzed behind her and how if she doesn't defend him he'll be killed. She knows that there is no real talking to the hero killer and she tried that before and nearly got stabbed for her attempt so she's just hoping someone got her message and is rushing to her location now.
She's also worried about what will happen if she's killed. She knows her family is already having issues as Izuku's back but if they were to lose her what would happen? She believes she has to survive so that her family can be happy but she knows she's getting tired. She keeps pushing and pushing until she gives, and the Hero killer catches her.
He'd bring his sword down on her and there's no way that she could dodge and her mind she'd ask for forgiveness from her family and basically accept that she's most likely going to die until fire erupts from the entrance to the alleyway in the Hero Killer dodge's backwards at first Izuki thinks it's Todoroki but then she looks back and instead the Ghost Rider is standing there and all she can feel is absolute dread.
Chapter Eight: The Hosu Incident
The chapter will start from Izuku's Perspective and he is angry he's furious at the person in front of him who is the hero killer and he would recognize that Izuki is terrified of him which admittedly saddens him but he presses on he realized that his family would abhor the Ghost Rider which technically means they abhor him but he just weathers it, it's the thick skin that he's gotten from being the Ghost Rider for so long it's a mental game that he's got good at.
He recounts how he found them as he was already leaving Hosu by the time he heard the first explosion he transformed on his own and it turned the Plymouth right around before speeding back to hosu on his way he felt an increase in Wrath in an alley that he just passed and he also felt a familiar presence he realized that it was Izuki and had stopped jumping out of the Plymouth and running directly into the alleyway just to see his sister almost murdered.
After his recounting he would walk into the alleyway placing himself between the hero killer and the other heroes before raising a wall of fire behind him blocking them off completely he would speak to Stain telling the hero killer that he will be judged here and he uses Stain's real name which angers the hero killer who shouts that no one will render him judgment besides All Might.
The hero killer will attempt to fight back tossing knives at him but the writers flame simply melts them before they can really hit him and he's a cool simply walk forward through all of it the hero killer will get a little bit more frantic before rushing he's a coup with his katana impaling him through the chest Izuku would use the opportunity and wrap a chain around the hero killer stopping him from causing any more death.
Then Izuku would have said Something similar to what the Ghost Rider says when he uses the Penance there and we would see a few of the hero Killers victims and how they died.
And the hero killer would have been victim to the Penance Stare to which The hero killer is basically no more. His soul was not destroyed but it was seared so much thatLittle it would have put him into a coma that he would not wake up from.
After this Izuku would have taken a look back at the heroes as his wall of fire dissipated and he'd walk away without a word leaving technically traumatized Heroes including his sister. Izuku would then get back in the Plymouth and going toward the destruction he didn't counter a few Heroes but mostly go past them and then he would counter the Nomu which he would make quick work of and he also encounters Endeavor.
Now this is the part where I was very hesitant to do as it may come out as controversial but I do like Endeavor's Arc. I mean he's a dick at first, he's still a dick now but he tries to be better so I don't want Izuku to kill him. That's not what I want him to do so this would have probably been a cop out where Izuku simply sensed all that sin but also the want to reconnect to try to be better so he would have left Endeavor alone which is a cop out I admit.
After this Izuku Makes his escape with Endeavor trying to chase him but him just being too fast and Izuku would leave Hosu and the chapter would end with him frustrated with how the day went.
Chapter Nine: (Didn't Have A Name)
This chapter would start with Izuku and the rest of his family in the Hosu General Hospital Izuku would be listening to his family worrying about Izuki while he's simply looking down at the floor thinking over the face that he's a key won't last made at him even though he knows that he's a key thought she was simply looking at the Ghost Rider not him.
Eventually they'd be let in by the doctor and speak to Izuki who is somewhat traumatized by the event, not so much so that she's a crying bubbling mess or something like that but she's admittedly tense when thinking about it. So much so that when Izuka tries to gently bring up what happened Izuki accidentally uses her quirk and shifts the bed.
Izuku masks his feelings pretty easily but internally he feels horrible he never wanted his siblings to ever see the Ghost Rider. He knows the visage is terrible, a skeleton on fire, who wouldn't be scared of that. It doesn't help matters when The door opens and the police chief along with Detective Tsuckhuci and NighteyeI walk in.
The family is asked to leave the room to which they reluctantly comply after leaving the family runs into Toshinori Yagi Who came after hearing what had happened family gets to talking and they learn a little bit more about how Izuki Is trained by Toshinori but Izuku is suspicious because he can tell that toshinori is lying he isn't sure why Toshinori is lying but something isn't adding up in his statements.
Some time passes and eventually the police chief, the detective, and Nighteye all leave, not saying a word to the family and just going straight down, though it is noted by izaku that Toshinori flinches when Nighteye glances at him.
Toshinori decides that it would be best for him to wait for the family to speak some more and sits down in the waiting room but while the rest of the midorias go in Izuku stays behind to speak to Toshinori.
This part would be tense at least on at least I hope it would be on the side of the reader as Izuku attempts to figure out why Toshinori is training Izuki as he just does not trust him. They speak Izuku asks some questions most of them are deflected or answered with lies but Izuku who knows he can't cause a scene so he doesn't as much as he wants to so instead he drops a hint that he knows Toshinori is lying but besides he'd rather see his sister than deal with this.
The chapter would then cut to some time later and Izuku is driving around. His mind is still on what happened when he gets a call. Rumi Calls him to ask if he wants to go to an underground fighting ring. He asks if that's a good idea as she's a top ten hero but she says it's fine as she'll be wearing a disguise and even if anyone recognizes her nobody would say a thing.
He asks why she's so sure and she admits that she still goes to them and most of the people who go there know her and know that if anyone squeals she's going to punt them to the moon. He agrees that that's a very good threat and says he'll go. She's excited about his agreement and tells him to pick her up at the house and then she hangs up.
The chapter then skips to Izuku picking up Rumi and the two head off to the fighting ring. They talk about how it's been a long time since both of them went to a fighting ring and easy to brings up tiger bunny and she mentions that tiger bunny was cool and then Izuku simply tells her about the first time she ever jumped into an already ongoing match and how tie Tiger Bunny's first appearance was a very awkward situation.
Rumi doesn't deny this as she remembers it very well but still proclaims the tiger bunny was cool to which Izuku says she was for a few moments to which Rumi then smacks him on the shoulder. The two make it to th eevent and watch the fighters, Rumi gets all into it and her energy is infectious enough for Izuku to get into it as well.
The watch the entire event to which several conversations happen most of them around past events and how nice it is for each other to be together again though the conversation has a sense of melancholy from Izuku As he truly doesn't believe he'll be around long enough to truly recoup the friendship that they once had even though he's happy to experience this.
Eventually the event ends and they both leave as they do Rumi Is replaying the fight in their conversation and both mention that their favorite fighters were two completely different people. Both defend themselves and why they preferred that fighter and the entire conversation is basically a light-hearted argument.
Eventually they make it to Rumi's house and Izuku leaves but not without Rumi laying a small kiss on Izuku's cheek. As he's leaving he wonders if he is leading her on with this.
Chapter Ten: The Chained Predator
This chapter is our return to the Ghost Rider as he truly is and it's also the start of the end, well kind of sorta, possibly it depends on what you think of as the end or the beginning of the end anyway let's just get this over with. The chapter would start with Izuku driving out of the city it's June right now and he's already close to The Rider's time As such he went with the original excuse and is leaving town so he doesn't put his family in the crossroads he doesn't want them in the crossroads especially after what happened in Hosu sealed the deal for him.
Izaku would be thinking about things that he really shouldn't be focusing on at the moment and once he realizes what he's doing he switches on the radio to drown out those thoughts as much as possible this works to a certain extent and for about an hour or two he's driving up to the abandoned church on his way though he stopped when he sees Official Police blocking the path forward he drives up asks what's going on and basically the officer says that there's been a landslide up ahead which is blocked the road with rubble.
Though the scene takes a turn when Izuku senses he's lying Izuku is unsure why the officer is lying but the officer looks at the car saying it's a pretty good model saying he even recognizes it and then he brings up his pistol and shoots Izuku square in the forehead.
The POV then switches to the and you'd learn his name is Yuri Goda and he's a very professional carjacker. He talks Into his radio for his partner to come in and soon rumbling down the same direction as the landslide is a large tow truck it stops a few feet away from Plymouth and hops out or rather large man.
It also should be noted that Yuri says that the tow truck has a name called the hearse for the many cars it's taken from its dead owners.
The driver of the 'Hearse' Walks over and looks into the driver's seat before opening the door and dragging Izuku's corpse out and then digging into the man's pockets for his license and identification he finds it, notes his name and then pockets it.
The two look at the corpse and then over to the drop next to the road They grab his accused corpse and haul them over to the railing before throwing him off into the The dark they talk about how much of a score they've got and then the driver of the hearse hooks up the Plymouth while Yuri Grabs the barriers and shoves them into the police cruiser before following the hearse off.
The POV would then switch to Izuku's mind to which both the Rider and Izuku are holding a chain as if they were playing tug of war. Izuku is injured even in the mindscape but he's hanging on to tell the rider to do something for him. Izuku asks the Rider to get the Plymouth back because he realized what happened he pleads for the rider to listen to him as that Plymouth represents much more to him than just a nice car before Izuku fades deeper into the mindscape.
The writer is left alone with the chain looking where Izuka one stood. It thinks for a moment and then what would have been a transition from the minescape to the real world he would have agreed to Izuku's plea.
The chapter would then cut to two other people several hours later both are standing in a underground car garage and both are talking about the hell Walker and how much it's actually worth the guy is the boss of the entire operation and the woman is basically just a kid is the mechanic who also researches cars and the like.
I would have gone deeper into them in the actual story but since they don't really show up again or at least they're not Planned to I just decided to leave them both nameless even though they do have names.
Anyway the two are interrupted by a large explosion above them and then the chapter cuts to a few hours Before.
A few hours before the explosion at the underground parking garage the writer is standing outside of a club well be standing across the street in Alleyway with his head doused of flame looking out at it he can sense the people who killed izaku inside but he also senses a lot of innocent people just clubbing well they're sin in there obviously but there's not enough to actually punish people for it.
Because the writer doesn't want to kill anybody innocent it's trying to think of a way inside to which it then spots someone who isn't innocent walking behind the back it quickly follows going so fast that no one can really see it and it watches as The sinner comes up to a bolted shut door the center slams their hand on it and the small slit opens up they speak and then the center is let in.
The Rider sees this as an opportunity and walks up to the door it doesn't knock he simply puts its Hands on the door and a few moments later it melts into molten slag the guard immediately reacts and attempts to use their Quirk but the Rider lashes out with a chain and the man is slashed in half before turning to ashes on the floor.
I was thinking this up as I was watching the Red VS Blue season fourteen Club episode and I was imagining that as people were dancing it would switch back and forth to the Rider clearing up the people in the back cuz nobody could really hear what was actually going on over the loud music it was a nice thought but that's not how writing works. Much as I wish it sometimes did.
Anyway eventually the massacre would come to one of the people who killed Izuku the police officer who is also the owner of the club or at the very least someone who's overseeing it the man panics because they recognized the writer and attempt to fight back but it's completely useless and he's wrapped up in Chains and brought directly to the Rider.
The Rider asks with that gravelly voice of his where the car is to where the man is confused at first before he begins to recognize the clothing on the Rider. It may be a little burnt but he can still make it out. At this point he freaks out babbling out trying to get the the Rider to spare him, even telling the Rider the exact location of where the Plymouth would be but the Rider obviously isn't merciful and just uses the chains already wrapped around him to slice through him and turn him to complete ash before leaving.
As the Rider leaves though it notices the tow truck the Hearse. I'm positive anyone who is reading this can see where this is going.
Anyway we hop back over just a few moments before the explosion and at the top of the Underground parking garage which is covered by a old abandoned Factory and a few moments after these two were talking a hellafide tow truck bursts through the wall.
Now this scene was going to be chaotic brutal mostly because I was going to the Rider drifting the tow truck and have the chain on the back flying out decapitating people cutting them in half the hook itself grabbing someone by the eye and pulling them along for a little bit slamming them through a window before going on to more people basically it was going to be pretty freaking brutal as the writer has shown to be throughout the chapters well when you saw it.
After all the chaos the Rider would step out and go over to a large industrial elevator it'd pry open The doors and see that the elevator was not where it was meant to be it looks down and sees the elevator sitting several stories beneath it and it jumps.
The POV then switches back to the two downstairs they hear all the commotion they're panicking and then they hear allowed thud basically the rider landing on the on the elevator they ready their quirks the young girl's eyes flash yellow as tube electric blades spring from her forearms while the guy opens his mouth as his throat glows orange.
The moment the writer smashes open the door the two released their quirks on them and after a Split Second of just flames the guy thinks they did it and then the chain wraps around his neck and pulls him into the fire. This singular action absolutely terrifies the girl because she recognizes it she didn't realize just who she was attacking.
Then the rider comes out of the fire and walks towards the girl she's shaking, terrifying her mind is you know just absolutely scared and then the writer is right in front of her staring down into her eyes as she stares up into those black sockets.
She closes her eyes accepting that she's going to die here and a few moments later an engine turns on she peeks out and sees the writer got into the hell Walker and then the writer pieces out basically it goes directly into a wall and tunnels its way out using the Heat basically turning the ground into lava or magma whatever you want to call it and just riding straight up to the surface.
The POV would linger on the girl to where she would then pass out. Now I know some of you might be confused why I left this girl alive. Well it's simple she's young ,she's a lot younger than anybody that the Rider has killed. The Rider, while maybe willing to kill a lot of people does not want to kill kids if that makes sense it doesn't want to kill anybody that young as it knows that sometimes all they need is a real good scare.
Anyway the POV changes once more to Fat gum and detective Tsuckauchi who arrive on scene several hours later fat gum nearly loses his lunch at the carnage of the scene and Tsuckauchi has to leave the scene as well because of the smell they ask a detective on site if anyone survived and they're directed towards the young girl.
They ask her questions things like her name stuff like what happened just The general affair of questions police officers usually ask and they learn about the car jacking schemes which makes sense to them as they'd realize the while ago that this was a rider incident and that the Ghost Rider was back because they'd also got another call earlier this is just the one they were getting to.
They learn a little bit and they also learn that the writer took a very rare vehicle from the underground parking garage. The girl wasn't aware how they got it though she wasn't very positive about the status of the original owner.
They thank her for her statements and then she's carded off into the ambulance the two talk and hope that something survived down there so that way they can figure out what car was taken and if they can find it because if they can find the car they can find the Ghost Rider.
But the chapter switches POV again to the writer speeding down a highway towards an unknown place it Slams on the brakes and looks around as for about a moment it felt a call for help for my young girl before it was snuffed out it can't figure out where the plea came from but it is enraged at the idea of being too late to save the girl. It continues on and the chapter ends.
Chapter Eleven: (Had a Name but too embarrassed by its existence)
The chapter starts with Izuku in another dream like sequence now these dreams that I have Izuku going through we're basically going to be small little hints about how long the Rider has been around and what it is now I couldn't think of what this sequence would have been I was split between Medieval Knight, Native American, Old Settlers, Japanese Samurai point is I was not having a good time picking so I have no idea what it would have been but he would have woken up from the dream with not a lot so it doesn't really matter.
Izuku then wakes up in the Plymouth driver's seat looking at the old abandoned church he's been using as a home He forgets what had happened for a moment before he's reminded and looks around the car he looks at the passenger seat and sees a splattering of blood he knows for a fact it's his own blood and realize he's going to have to clean it.
Though annoyed at the blood he's happy that the Rider actually listened to him and even thinks it though it though he knows it won't respond to him it usually doesn't anyway. He gets out of the vehicle and heads into the church which he's changed a little bit more of he's added some shelves and a small desk but he's also shoved cleaning supplies in the old church closet so he grabs those and gets to work on getting rid of the blood.
After he does his best to get rid of it he moves over to the desk which holds a laptop and looks up the Ghost Rider again and he learned of everything that happened within the last week and this time apparently the Rider went South it passed Tokyo not going into it thankfully but it still caused a lot of damage to Southern Japan.
Izuku stares at all the headlines reading some of them before skipping over to the others and then he just stares, not actually looking at the laptop he then looks over at the calendar and realizes he might not have as much time as he wanted.
The chapter would then cut to a few days later with Izuku out with his family they're just having fun and then Izuku says that she got a opportunity to go to an I-island exhibit to which the entire family is happy for her because I-island is such a hard place to get to they speak a little bit more and then Izuku gets a call.
The call is from Rumi but when he answers she's frantic, a bit panicky and it's obvious that her voice is a little erratic. She basically begs him to come over, he asks why and she's up front with how her heat cycle is starting and her usual partner is half the country away because of the Rider.
Izuku looks towards his family and then back away and asks if there's really no one else she says no and begs him to come he thinks for a moment and then he says yeah he'll be there to which Rumi is thankful and hangs up.
Izuku Looks back towards his family and says he's sorry but something will come up and it's an emergency so he's got to go. They ask what's wrong and he just says that a friend needs his help and leaves.
Now this part is a bit different as I wanted Izuku to be a bit self-loathing here leading up from when he wondered if he was leading Rumi on now he knows that he really is. He arrives outside the house and Izuku takes a moment talking to himself if this is truly something he should do. He acknowledges that doing this would help her but it would also cement in her mind that he's staying and he doesn't feel comfortable with that.
He takes a look at the house and steals his nerve. He gets out of the Plymouth and goes up to the house. He rings the doorbell and is immediately dragged inside. The chapter would then cut after a little bit of an explicit scene but not going into full lemon territory.
Chapter then cut later that night to where Rumi was sound asleep while Izuku is sitting up looking at his hands. He's not in a good mental state at the moment wondering if he should have done this as he is truly unsure if he did the right thing. Izuku would look back at Rumi and brush some of her white hair out of her face and decide that he did the best thing he could even though it will definitely lead to pain for her in the future.
Chapter Twelve: The I-Island Expo
The chapter would begin with izuku sitting at a restaurant booth a little bit outside Musutafu he's pondering over a few things and mentally mentions that Izuki, Izuka and, Izumi all got ways into the Expo which was scheduled to start in next few days. Now, Izuku wasn't jealous at all obviously, it's not like the Expo was something he'd wanted to go to for a very long time.
After all his mental grumbling Izuku's phone rings. He picks it up and asks Rumi what's going on and she basically asks him if he could be her date to the I-island Expo to which izuku nearly spit takes. Rumi notices even on the phone and explains that the Expo is going to be holding a top 10 Heroes meeting as well and she was invited and allowed to bring any one of her choosing so she decided to bring him.
Izuku is flabbergasted by the whole thing but agrees to go, though mentions that he doesn't have a suit or any kind of formal wear to which Rumi basically tells him to figure it out and tells him to meet her by the end of the week before hanging up.
Izuku would then stare blankly forward before rushing through his contacts and calling his sisters. They pick up and he tells them his plight To where they say they'll help but that he needs to get back to the house immediately if they want to get something before the end of the day. To which Izuku agrees and rushes out of the restaurant but not after paying.
The chapter would then skip to a couple days later with Izuku and Rumi driving up to a runway they're talking about the Expo and what they hope to see there. The conversation would be light-hearted and several jokes would make their way in before they finally make it to the runway.
It's a private runway rented out by Rumi So she doesn't have to take the civilian class and get harassed on board and so that way Izuku is not harassed either. They go into the hangar there is a valet waiting for them and a pilot the valet tells Izuku that he'll take care of the car and Izuku threatens that if he doesn't he'll break every bone in his hand.
Rumi Whatever conversation with the pilot the pilot would say they're ready to go and then Rumi would talk to Izuku who would then take the luggage out of the back of the Plymouth and follow Rumi up to the plane.
Izuku says he hasn't been on planes that much and Rumi says she's actually never been on one. Izuku just tells her to be calm to which Rumi replies that she's sure she can be very calm on a plane and that hero duties are probably much worse than this.
The chapter then cuts to a few hours later with roomy fast sleep and Izuku looking over the horizon he's writing in his little Journal which in his own internal monologue mentions that he's had it for a couple years now and that he's written down a lot of things things that if this journal were to get into someone's hands would be rather incriminating.
He wondered if it was actually a good idea to bring it but discards the worry as he wrote the whole thing in English and he's pretty sure Rumi never passed that class. Izuku then notices something in his vision and looks out to see the spec that is I-Island.
The description of I-Island would then be put down explaining its a place for some of the smartest people in the world to pool ideas together and change the world for the better. Basically a scientist's wet dream.
Izuku would then wake up Rumi who looks out the same window and is awed by the view.
The chapter would then cut to them going through security to get into the island with Rumi still in her hero outfit while Izuku is just wearing his normal clothes though next to her he looks rather raggedy. Rumi will actually point this out and ask why Izuku is so dead set on the hobo look to which Izuku says that it's in style.
Rumi will question his sanity and Izuku will simply refer back to that Eraserhead guy from the sports festival saying that that dude had style. Rumi would scoff at this but continue on, though she would notice something with Izuku as he puts his hood up and looks away from a few specific Heroes who look like they came from America.
She asks what's up and he simply says that he got into some trouble back in America so he's just a little worried that one of the heroes would recognize him. She asks if it was anything serious and he simply says that he wasn't good in America and had admittedly been arrested a few times but it was mostly a day or two in jail before being released.
She comments on this saying that she didn't know anything about this and Izuku simply says he didn't think it was necessary to know to which Rumi decides that she'll just drop that for now. The two make it to their hotel and get a room that was reserved by Rumi a couple days before the receptionist recognizes Mirko and says she's a big fan before giving them their room key.
They had up and talk a little bit more before deciding to explore the Expo itself though not all of it is displayed because the true Expo begins tomorrow after a party which is being hosted by David Shield. They go around the Expo grounds And eventually running to the triplets the triplets fan over Mirko and also try to get juicy secrets out of her to use against Izuku but Marco doesn't really give them much considering that some of it would be ammo towards her.
Izuku would instead be talking to Bakugou who would actually try to be civil towards Izuku as he doesn't want to have Izumi's older brother on his ass. Izuku gives him s*** but ultimately allows it because he knows that Izumi would have kicked Bakugou's ass if he wasn't being sincere about things. This part would have been a lot longer but just because I want to get it down to a summary this is how it's going to be.
The day winds down and the party happening at the tower is soon to commence both Izuku and Mirko are back in the hotel room getting ready they're trading jabs at each other While doing so with Izuku getting s*** for his hobo look and Rumi having to get in a literal fight with him just to shave the thing off.
After that they both head to the Tower with Izuku having tied his hair and put on a black vest with red lining and a green dress shirt though this is counterbalanced by him still wearing jeans and checkered slip-ons. Rumi Is wearing a white and blue dress that stops above her ankles and has her hair tied back as well but she is also wearing her hero uniform boots because she completely forgot her dress boots at home.
They mingle in the party though it's fairly obvious that Izuku is the odd man out. It seems as though none of the heroes actually invited anybody as a plus one and if they did they're currently not at the party as of the moment.
Eventually the two run into the Dragon Hero Ryuko who through conversation with Rumi is revealed to be the woman who was helping Rumi with her heat cycle throughout the years without Izuku. Ryuko comes off as a little cold towards Izuku but he feels that's fair as he did kind of leave Rumi high and dry with no warning.
Either way they talk and eventually Izuku decides to explore around so he leaves the main hall And heads off down one of the many Halls to just look around and see what he can see. He eventually comes to a large window overlooking the island and he just stares out at it; it's peaceful.
Then suddenly he senses something, alarm bells begin going off in his head as he can feel something approaching something that's tickling his and the Riders senses. He looks out over the bay and focuses; he knows something's there and after a moment he sees a large Fleet of helicopters approaching the island.
At that moment an alarm rings and an announcement says that the building is now on lockdown just as the hall is bathed in red light and he hears multiple noises that sound like something slamming. He runs out to the hall and sees that where he came from is completely blocked off by a security door.
As he's trying to figure out what happened the intercom suddenly comes on and a voice Speaks over it. The voice announces itself as Nine the leader of a paramilitary group that's come to take the equipment of the Expo and perhaps kill a few heroes while they're at it.
Izuku recognizes that voice and realizes that the paramilitary group is one that he's encountered before and one that got away from him. He decides that this is the perfect time to finish what he started.
Chapter Thirteen: The I-Island Incident (Part I)
All right, finally to the I-island incident. These series of chapters will be severely overhauled from the original intention because in the original Wattpad story it was basically Izuku going full Ghost Rider on everybody in the tower well besides the heroes and anyone that's innocent but you know that's how it usually goes. The chapter would begin with the UA students panicking wondering what's happening basically as they did in the original but the triplets who are there as well are more worried about their brother.
They try to figure out where you could be and then Izuki brings up the fact that he was here with Mirko so he's probably In the main party hall with all the other Heroes so he should be okay but then Izumi brings up the fact that they don't know that. Izuka says they have to hope that's the case.
The POV would switch to Mirko who is rising on the floor spewing curses of all kinds because she's wrapped in a quirk dampener just like every other hero in the hall. She stops though when the door opens and Nine walks in with Wolfram behind him.
They talk to the heroes telling them to be calm as they are simply here for the vault of support items. They take David Shield dragging him out of the party while Mirko feels useless, she then hears All Might whispering.
She looks up toward the skylight and notices Izuki looking down from the balcony. She's surprised to see them But simply hopes that All Might is telling them to hide.
The story would then retread the original I-Island planning scene though changed to fit the new scenario and class 1A with Melissa would head up the tower eventually they'd come to a security gate which closes in front of them into their right a shutter opens to reveal a bulletproof window and a guard for the organization which I have no idea what its name would have been so I'll just call them the Silver Wolves which is a homage to the fanfic Unchained Predator if you know you know.
Anyway the guard taunts them but before any of class 1A could do anything another guard comes in with a mask on and walks up behind the guard and wraps their rifle around the other guards throat. After knocking the guard out they'd remove their mask and Izuku is wearing the Silver Wolves uniform.
The triplets are surprised to see Izuku and ask what he's doing he explains that he got trapped in the Halls and took one of the saber wolves outfits so that way he wouldn't get caught they accept it and he says that he'll help him out and opens the security gate for them past.
The POV within switch to Izuku who watches the class go through the hall he then recap his version of events and he'll mention that he doesn't want the Ghost Rider to appear on an island as he remembers how Izuki looked at the Ghost Rider and he doesn't want to make his other sisters have that same face.
After that the chapter would go through Izuku's point of view as Class 1A ascends the tower there'd be a few action scenes and a few scenes of Izuku fighting alongside them but with a rifle and doing crippling shots but not killing them. Much to his private annoyance.
Eventually they get to the vault and instead of David being complicit with the heist he's a genuine hostage this time with Nine forcing him to open several of the Safe boxes in the vault. Izuki would run in with her sisters and a few members of class 1A while the rest are fighting the security drones.
Izuku would be with them providing covering fire but after a scuffle where Nine proves victorious Izuku is stabbed in the back by Slice who taunts him before Wolfram disposes of Izuku by throwing him out of the tower from the hole created in the scuffle with Nine. This would horrify the triplets and Izuki would tap into more of OFA And with a single punch destroys the Vault making it collapse into the floor below.
The POV would have been switched again to Izuku who's falling but isn't really focusing on that he's focusing on the fact that his sister's had just watched him get thrown out of a tower with no hope of surviving he knew he'd survive but his sisters didn't his time had basically just run out and it was all those villains fault.
He hits the ground and transforms into the Ghost Rider but Izuku is in control.
Chapter Fourteen: The I-Island Incident (Part II)
The chapter would start with Nine getting up from the fall and looking for Slice he'd find her and then the two would leave afterwards the triplets would emerge from the rubble they're all heartbroken angry sad any emotion that comes with you know a brother dying but they eventually agree that they'll deal with Nine for Izuku.
POV would then switch to a lower part of the tower where Chimera is directing a squad to plant high explosive bombs on the support beams of I-Island Tower. As they are doing this Izuku finally comes up to the tower he notices them all immediately and begins killing them. Chimera is shocked at the appearance of the Ghost Rider as the mercenary group have encountered him before. They lost an entire base because of him and Nine was heavily injured (Which is why his original quirk hurts him so much) Chimera sees red at the Ghost Rider slaughtering his men and transforms fully already knowing what the Ghost Rider is capable of.
There is a bit of a fight with Chimera getting a hold of Izuku and tossing him upward through several floors of the tower and then they continue for a little longer destroying tons of equipment and a few other mercenaries getting killed in the crossfire. Izuku does come out on top, killing Chimera by wrapping the chain around him and heating it up hot enough to melt into Chimera's skin, basically slicing him into iddy bits.
After this Izuku looks around and notices one of the mercenaries dropped an assault rifle, he grabs it and transforms the weapon and he's on his way. Izuku gets to an elevator and gets on top of it shooting a loadbearing cable to send him flying up the shaft.
The POV switches once more to the triplets running toward Nine. They eventually catch up and a fight breaks out with Nine who tells Slice to go ahead to the chopper as she's holding the loot ultimately proving too much but his overconfidence does allow Izumi and Izuka to burn him and then Izuki drops a ceiling on his head. Nine bursts through the debris and attacks the triplets and injures them severely, Izumi is the most injured.
Nine monologues like any good villain and attempts to kill them but is stopped by several shots of molten lead puncturing through his gut. Izuku walks up behind Nine and wraps a chain around his throat, Nine attempts to fight back but Izuku super heats the chain and would've used it to decapitate him if he didn't see the looks on the triplet's faces.
He chucks Nine through a wall and races after him. When they are out of sight from the twins Izuku goes for the kill and does a penance stare on Nine. After this Izuku would have followed Slice who was able to get to the roof and attempt to leave by helicopter.
She's already in the air when a chain wraps around the landing gear and begins pulling the chopper back down. She attempts to get out of there by moving the chopper around but Izuku just gets a bit pissed at the attempts and roughly pulls the chopper down in front of him.
He quickly reaches in and grabs Slice by the throat and pulls her out of the cockpit door window. Izuku kills her by simply burning her with his hellfire. Afterwards he wonders what is next and after looking at the stairwell and wondering about the triplets he boards the chopper and flies back toward Japan. There we go, now this chapter would've been more fleshed out with Izuku introspective about what he should do throughout and a few other bits that ain't as important.
Chapter Fifteen: Decisions & Consequences
The chapter would pick up with Izuku back in the Plymouth rushing back to the church. It's been only a couple of hours after the events of I-Island and his thoughts are getting the better of him as he's thinking of how his family is reacting and once he reaches the church it gets to fever pitch.
He goes up to the Rig and opens the trailer back while talking to himself saying that he fell from the tower and that with what his family knows he couldn't have survived. He gets the Armstrong and Plymouth loaded up and then moves into the church to grab a few other things while still arguing with himself.
Eventually he angrily kicks a pew which collides into the others and breaks them all in a domino effect. Then he collapses in one and just cries, he hates that his family will think he's dead and he's simply emotionally drained after it all. He wonders what he should do and in a moment he decides.
The POV switches to Sir Nighteye who is riding in a police assault vehicle with the intention of catching the Ghost Rider. They had finally pinpointed a location and had scouted it out with satellite feeds, it seemed the Ghost Rider made an abandoned church his base of operations.
He'd talk to the striketeam, who I'm not caring to name right now, that they must have absolute caution. He explains the dangers and admits to not being sure if they could make it out, he tells them it is an honor and they finally arrive.
They surround the church and then after a long speech from Nighteye into the building by megaphone the heroes burst in ready to fight and all they come across is Izuku drinking while sitting in one of the pews still intact looking away from the door.
The heroes are confused and approach Izuku who glances at them but says nothing. Nighteye moves to the pew and stares at Izuku as the heores completely surround them from all sides with their quirks ready. Nighteye asks where the Rider is and Izuku simply responds that they are around.
Nighteye gestures to a burly hero who grabs Izuku from behind ina bear hug and lift him up Izuku does nothing but mope over his gin being spilled. Nighteye touches Izuku and uses his quirk but doesn't receive anything, its a blank void.
This unveres Nighteye and he asks who Izuku is. Izuku simply says he's the helper and Nighteye makes the conclusion that this is the Rider's cohort and has Izuku arrested. Izuku is cuffed and dragged to the police vehicles where he's put inside and driven off.
Nighteye stays behind and looks over at the semi truck parked beside the church. He wonders where the Rider is and why he couldn't see Izuku's future. This chapter was meant to be short and bring about an issue for Izuku, his family. Izuku doesn't want his family to suffer but him being 'dead' would probably kill them.
So he turns himself in so that way he's still alive for his family and Mirko.
Note:
Alright this is the end of the more detailed breakdown as from this point forward all I had was notes about the general direction of the story going and so don't want to just make shit up as I go because I want to get this to you guys as fast as possible. As such any smaller plot point will be left to the wayside and it will just be full steam ahead to the end. I'll put how many chapters the arc's would have been or at least an estimate on how I used to write.
ARC: The Shie Hassaikai (Four Chapters)
Izuku would be in jail and interrogated multiple times but he just gives vague answers. Mirko visits him and demands an explanation, Izuku is vague with her as well but feels remorseful for how things have gone and he learns his family isn't taking the news about his arrest and why very well. A few days would pass and Izuku would get another psychic connection with the little girl he kept hearing but this one was more pronounced and he finally learns why they kept happening.
He feels the little girls pain and the amount of suffering is so much that the Rider responds. It forces Izuku out of the 'drivers seat' and breaks out of the jail cells. The Rider moves through the police station dealing with anyone in its way, nonlethaly, and finally gets outside to the large impound lot.
It gets to the Rig and steps inside to which the Hell Rig is finally unveiled! The Hell Rig bursts through the gates and speeds along through Japan with heroes chasing it down while the news reports this as well. Izuku's family watches in horror from their living room and Mirko is horrified as well.
The Rider eventually makes it to the Shie Hassaikai base and rams into the building with the Hell Rig. It causes chaos and blitzes through most of the Nine bullets until it finally gets to Eri and Overhaul. Overhaul will fight back but eventually he's killed by the Rider.
The Rider takes Eri and delivers her to the police directly outside who attempt to take the Rider as well but it gets out of there pretty easily.
ARC: The Meta Liberation Army (Three Chapters)
Re Destro will have gotten angry at the Rider having disrupted the way things had been going and will task his Lieutenants on tracking down the Ghost Rider. Izuku will be camping out in an old quarry when he's found. This will start a series of events that would get his family involved and Izuku will tear through the MLA.
Eventually he'd get to Deika and kill everyone in the city, finishing off the Army.
ARC: All For One (Two Chapters)
The finale would have involved the League of Villains who would attack UA directly as All For One is interested in getting the Rider's 'quirk' and endangers Izuku's triplets. All For One broadcasts this publicly and All Might will get involved but is forced to stay back as All For One threatens the students including Izuki who he knows is the next wielder of One For All.
Izuku arrives walking directly through the gates without transforming. Shigaraki escorts him forcefully into the main atrium where All For One sits on a makeshift throne and has the students and staff trapped in a quirk. All For One goes on a spiel about the Ghost Rider and how he'd always been interested in the 'quirk' but nobody could truly tell the Demon Lord who the Rider was.
All For One attempts to steal Izuku's 'quirk' but after grabbing him and realizing its not working Izuku transforms. He grabs All for One and makes him kneel, he tells the Demon Lord that his power is no quirk but a curse and uses the Penance Stare. After AFO is killed Izuku makes quick work of the rest of the League.
ARC: All Good Things (One Chapter)
This is the ending and I already had this planned out when I started the story. Izuku would meet with his family one final time and speak to Mirko who has some resentments toward Izuku because of his Rider persona. All in all it would have ended on a somber note with Izuku having been outed as the Ghost Rider his family would need protection and the Heroes would always chase Izuku so Izuku leaves Japan. The story would end with Izuku thinking back on everything and regretting it all.
Happy endings aren't for every story. A Ghost Rider story is usually filled with tragedy and death as well as the main character getting fucked over in some way shape or form. A Ghost Rider in the world of MHA would never have had a happy ending, it simply isn't feasible in a world where most things are seen in black and white with only some capable of seeing the grays in between. I wished I could have had more motivation for this story and could have finished it the way it deserved but I simply cant bring myself to do it, plus I write differently now and make my drafts differently so it was also difficult to try and emulate the same style I had before.
This is the end and I want to thank every single person that gave this a shot. I'm aware this is now in the many failed Ghost Rider/MHA fics out there and I had wanted to break the mold and didn't succeed. I'm happy with how it started and I'm happy people actually liked it and most of all I'm just happy it happened. God, writing this I'm actually getting kind of emotional.
Anyway I thank you all again. This would most likely have died off and never even somewhat finished if not for the kindness I got in the reviews so thank you. And who knows maybe one day in the future I'll get a hit of inspiration and jump back into a Ghost Rider and MHA crossover and it'll be better than this one could ever have been. Thank you all for reading and for one last gift I'm uploading the entire original version onto the last part of this chapter. Fair warning the story is crap and even though its the springboard you can very much so tell I pulled most of it out of my ass and I regret a lot of decisions I made on it, so please don't bully me for my past mistakes bully the past version of me and if anyone says anything about the original in the reviews please be somewhat kind thats all I ask and I also decided not to edit this and leave it how I'm copying it over from Wattpad so yeah.
Anyway to everyone I hope you have a good night or day and that the original copy doesn't ruin it.
Warning: A Dumbass Freshman Wrote This As Such It Is Recommended You Turn Off Your Logical Thinking And Accept Stupidity
Chapter One
Izuku is the oldest child of Hisashi and Inko Midoriya. When Izuku was 5, he was taken to a doctor as he displayed no sign of a quirk developing "Sorry kid but it ain't gonna happen.'' The doctor said rather bluntly while Izuku dropped his All Might action figure .
"What do you mean he isn't gonna develop a quirk?" Hisashi and Inko said in sync.
"Your son is one of the 20%. Sorry but he's got two joints in his pinky toe that is always a sign of quirklessness." the doctor confirmed.
After the news their son was quirkless, his parents became very protective of Izuku, never letting him leave the apartment unless it was for school. Izuku still loves heroes but became a little bitter at the constant babying and would get into fights at school coming home to scoldings from his parents. When Izuku was 9 his parents told him Inko was pregnant Izuku was ecstatic he would be an older brother even more so when a few months later they learned Inko was to have triplets and finally they were born Izuki, Izuka, and Izumi they were nearly identical except for the eyes Izuki had her moms emerald eyes, Izuka had her fathers light blue eyes, and Izumi had heterochromia one eye blue the other green. The triplets were very close to Izuku when they asked him to play with them he usually would unless he was busy, the triplets also knew Izuku was quirkless and tried to sway him from his hero dream. They are very protective of their older brother since he was born without a quirk; he never met Katsuki considering he's ten years older than them. When the triplets got their quirks, they learned Izuki had her mothers quirk but it was more powerful and she could repulse things away from her. Izuka had her fathers quirk but more potent meaning she could breath enough fire to propel herself into the air. Izumi had inherited both of her parents' quirks in that she could control fire around her and produce her own from her mouth. The triplets after getting their quirks made a vow to protect their brother above all else and they did just that but what they didn't know is that Izuku got tired of it real quick but he never had the heart to tell them off. So Izuku was still trying to be a hero but when even his sisters tried stopping him he stopped not because he accepted he couldn't be a hero but because he didn't want to give Inko and Hisashi a heart attack considering his mother cried at very small things and his father was similar. When the triplets were 9 Izuku was sent a letter from a college in America considering how rare that was he was gonna take the opportunity by the throat when he brought it up to his family they were very happy for him until they heard where it was. "No" the triplets said, followed by his parents.
"What, why?!" Izuku asked, not expecting them to say no.
"Izuku, it's because you'd be all alone in America and we wouldn't be able to protect you." Inko said receiving nods from the others in the room
"Listen, Izuku, you don't have a quirk, we're happy for you we really are but you could get hurt and worse killed we just don't wanna lose you." Izumi said with everyone nodding except Izuku.
Izuku was used to stuff like this when it came to leaving the house, but this was different when they told him he couldn't go because he didn't have a quirk, something snapped in him. He felt angry, he felt like his family didn't see him as a person but a nice vase they didn't wanna lose and all that pent up anger and frustration almost boiled over but he was able to keep a lid on it. "Plus you're just too fragile to leave the country." Izuka said.
Well to say Izuku had a lid on his emotions was a lie after that statement, Izuku could feel his face heat up and everyone in the room saw the shadows cover his eyes, he had had it. Izuku stood up and began walking toward the entrance in one last attempt not to blow up at his family, which was dashed, smashed, and destroyed by Izuka who had got in front of him blocking the door "Izuku this discussion isn't over." she said.
"Move, now Izuka." Izuku said, venom lacing his words as they came. Izuka didn't know how to react; she'd never seen this side of Izuku before.
"No, you're gonna sit down at the table and uhhh-"
"No, I'm not so just move out of the fucking way Izuka!"
The words hit the whole family hard they'd never seen this side of him and it scared them, but Izuka was starting to cry as she was the focus of that pent up anger. Izuku pushed Izuka aside and made his way towards the door being stopped by a tone of voice he'd heard only once in his life, "IZUKU MIDORIYA!" Izuku turned to find his mother with a scowl and gritting her teeth. Izuku when he first saw this side of his mother was scared shitless but now it didn't do anything. "YOU ARE GOING TO APOLOGIZE TO IZUKA OR KAMI HELP ME I'LL-"
"You'll what?" Izuku said with an icy glare making Inko shut up.
"You'll baby me even more than you have, I just don't understand it you treat me like I'm glass as if I'm too fragile to do things on my own so you know what, Fuck You! You have no more say in what is happening right now. I'm leaving so do yourselves a favor and just forget about me. It seems your lives would be better without me to worry about." Izuku said getting closer to the door. Hisashi tried to say something but was cut off by the slamming of their front door, leaving actual cracks in the frame. Inko was crying Hisashi tried comforting her while Izuki and Izumi went after Izuku trying to stop him and get him to apologize to his family but as they left the complex they heard a car start up and saw Izuku leave down the road.
Chapter Two
Six years later Izuku never came back, they found he went to America leaving behind his family, the triplets blamed themselves while his parents did their best to keep everything together for the triplets, eventually the entrance exam was held and a few days later the letter arrived saying they got in Izuka and Izumi got 1-A while Izuki got 1-B. The family, being excited and happy for the first time in a while, went to an all American dinner to celebrate. They walked in and took their orders having a great time before finally going home.
A few weeks later an armored truck was speeding down the highway, trying to make it to a rendezvous point outside the city. The heroes were chasing them and were having difficulty, "Shit, if we don't stop them soon they might get away." Extra hero #1 says.
"Listen, we can't let them get away with those weapons who knows what they could do with them." Rocklock exclaimed while putting the pedal to the floor.
Over the horizon an ethereal orange glow and the roar of an engine appeared, "What, oh shit looks like they called backup." Extra Villain #1 explained, But the heroes were confused as they never called for backup. The glow gets brighter and brighter before they can finally see it, an American muscle car on fire blasting past the heroes towards the villains at speeds a muscle car shouldn't reach. The villains opened the back doors on the transport revealing an RPG-7 pointed right at the Mustang the villains fired, hitting the ground beneath the vehicle sending it soaring up as the elevated highway crumbled beneath, falling onto the empty highway heroes' cars screeched to a halt as the villains laughed and celebrated. The car flipped in the air before it landed on it's wheels and continued its chase. The villains' cheer of excitement immediately turned to panic when they saw the flaming car continue its pursuit. The car got to the side of the transport and rammed into its side causing it to crash through the barricade sending it careening into the highway below.
It took a few minutes for the heroes to find their way around so they could catch up to the fleeing transport. What they didn't expect to find was a hole in the barricade and an orange glow from below it. They looked over the barricade and the grisly sight before them made their eyes widen. The transport doors seemed to be ripped off and a fire was raging inside a few corpses laid about set ablaze though one was far away from the others, their legs seemed broken but their eyes seemed to have burned away leaving nothing but dark holes. The heroes wondered what kind of person would have done this.
The triplets awoke to the sound of a scream downstairs as they got up to see what was going on they went down the stairs groggily as they adjusted to the light they saw their parents at the door their mom crying in what seemed to be tears of joy, their dad shocked but slowly tearing up at whatever they see through the door. But suddenly Inko yelled while running through the door "MY BABY!" The triplets face lit up in recognition as they rushed to the door to see their mom hugging a tall man with black hair with green highlights and stubble growing on his chin and a bright smile that could make a blind man look away. The man looked at the triplets "How's it going you three." the man asked. They all looked in shock before tearing up and running towards him screaming "IZUKU!" They hugged him tightly not wanting to let go in fear he'd disappear; they stayed like that for awhile before Hisashi led them all inside. The whole family bombarded Izuku with questions (The questions range from how was america to did you get hurt to other random things) eventually the question Izuku had been waiting for came.
"Why did you leave?" asked Izuki.
The question hit him hard but eventually after a bit of silence he began to explain, "I, uhhh felt trapped, I couldn't leave when I wanted too. You two protected me from a lot of things so I had to learn it at school. When you three got your quirks and made that vow to protect me it just made me feel fragile as if I couldn't do anything myself. Ha, that's why I enjoyed school and my old part time job at that uhhh garage because no one babied me, they asked me for something I did it, and all that frustration and anger boiled over when you guys told me I couldn't go to the American College and I aimed it at you and for that I'm sorry."
The family collectively had a sad expression as they realized they had essentially driven him out. Izuku got informed on what he missed over six years and how the triplets had gotten into U.A he was happy for the three. He entered his old room noticing how dusty it was; he assumed no one had entered the room since he left, as he walked over to the mirror with a rag in hand and wiped it down. Izuku stared at his reflection, noting the skeleton staring back. The next day Izuku, having not slept all night was downstairs watching the news and the events from the night before were on, Inko came downstairs and saw Izuku sitting on the couch and walked over "What are you watching?" she asked.
Izuku turned to look at her before saying "Well apparently an unknown villain interfered with a chase and killed all the villains before the heroes could stop them."
Inko was visibly disturbed seeing the corpses before saying "Whoever did this is sick and needs to be caught as quickly as possible."
Izuku didn't voice his opinion as he just watched the reporters interview some of the heroes who got glimpses of the person who did this as well as describe the vehicle as a charred black American muscle car now identified as a Plymouth GTX with what looked like red veins on the car, and the fire erupting from the engine and wheels Inko commented "That's freaky." before going to the kitchen.
Chapter Three
It had been a week since Izuku came back. He hadn't done much for it besides hang around and every so often leave the house because he wanted to be around his family more before looking for a job though he didn't need one because of the money he made in america. The day finally came when the Triplets were going to U.A Inko and Hisashi were making sure they were all good to go before leaving, Izuku the day before offered to drive them there so he was waiting in the apartment parking lot downstairs. The triplets left the complex to see their brother leaning against a green Plymouth GTX the 3 immediately bombarded Izuku with questions "That's so cool!" Izumi exclaimed.
"That car is the definition of fire!" Izuka said.
"Izuku where'd you get this !" Izuki asked with stars in her eyes.
"I got it as a prize in a race hosted by a car nut, he believed if you could beat him you owned the car." Izuku explained, "But let's get going. U.A waits for no one."
The four piled in the car and drove off. They arrived at the gate and the 3 got out, Izuku watched as they went into the building seeing Izumi split off towards an Ashin Blond before they embraced and headed inside. "That kid looks like he has anger issues. Eh I'm sure if he does Izumi will put a leash on him." Izuku said before leaving.
Izuku had mostly driven around the town getting reacquainted with it before he felt high levels of lust and wrath coming from behind a building. Knowing what that means he slams on the brakes before exiting the car and running down the alley while his skin burned away revealing a flaming skull. Izuku turned the corner and saw a woman getting her clothes torn off by a man with armored skin. Izuku sent a chain towards the man wrapping him up, pulling him off the woman and pinning him to the wall before the man could get a word off, Izuku ripped his throat out and let the man fall to the ground bleeding out agonizingly slow. Izuku, still transformed, looked towards the girl who was shaking while staring blankly at her revealed body. Izuku realized the girl was in complete psychological shock and knew the best thing to do was cover her up and take her to a hospital. Izuku walked up to the unresponsive girl took off his coat and put it over her before the flame turned a light blue and he picked her up slowly taking her to the car which now had transformed as well. The paint burned off and the veins spread across the car. Izuku placed her in the passenger seat and sped off to the hospital calling ahead while driving to tell them to expect a man with a flaming skull to bring in a girl in need of help he arrived at the front of the hospital walking in immediately met by medical staff who took the girl away, Izuku seeing the girl being cared for walked out before he could be questioned.
Izuka and Izuki were waiting for Izumi and their brother. "Hey Izuka where is Izumi." Izuki asked.
"She's probably making out with Katsuki in a closet considering the way they were looking at each other the whole day after 1-A's quirk assessment test." Izuka explained.
Izuki thought about it for a second before an image flashed through her head that she immediately blushed at and shook her head. Izuku arrived and immediately noticed the missing Izumi, "Where's Izumi?" Izuku asked. Before they could answer Izumi appeared scaring her twins and making Izuku flinch before they got in the car and left.
Izuku had been back for three months now and The Rider would come out soon Izuku being prepared for this bought a storage container a week after being in Japan and moved it to a secure spot outside the city, in it were 3 things an old book that had some of the only information on the spirits of vengeance he could find, an old leather jacket he first transformed in and an old American Armstrong motorcycle that didn't seem to function. Izuku made an excuse to his family that he wanted to go on a long drive out of town and told them he should be back in a week or two, of course his family really didn't want him to leave as they just got him back but he promised he'd be back telling them a long drive was something he'd do in America too. Izuku made his way out of the city and drove for a few hours before stopping a few miles from the storage container to stash his car in the woods. Hiking to the storage unit took about an hour since he didn't want to transform because it would only be the Rider in control. He opened the door and walked in, he took off his coat and grabbed the leather jacket and put it on. Izuku walked further in and up to a tarp and pulled it off revealing the old bike as a sound of scratching pierced his ears and he collapsed to his knees beginning to laugh "Rider do me a favor stay away from Mustafu!" Izuku yelled before his skin peeled away revealing a skull and suddenly the bike which had no engine roared as if it had one before it burst into flames. The Rider was here and he had no intentions of mercy.
Koichi wasn't used to not being able to take down all the villains around him but he had to leave it and continue the mission. He made his way over to Knuckleduster who wasn't in his normal outfit but a formal suit with his mask folded in his front chest pocket. Koichi walked next to the middle-aged vigilante "Have you seen the target?" Koichi asked.
Knuckleduster motioned his head towards the staircase in response. Koichi looked and standing there in a white suit and blood red tie was the Villain Starstruck. His quirk allowed him to form very hot spheres of plasma and throw them. He ran the drug trade in Tokyo's Naruhata Ward and had recently started supplying trigger to a Yakuza group though they didn't know which one. Koichi made his way across the floor walking to a balcony walking out into the cold night breeze he looked around to see no one there and looked up to see an open window. Using his quirk he scaled the side of the building and climbed inside he snuck behind some crates heard some guys talking about the new drug shipment that was attacked only an hour ago Koichi was confused as he wondered who got to it before him and Knuckleduster but before he could think about that anymore the sound of an engine could be heard approaching. Down in the main hall Knuckleduster was on edge when he heard the approaching engine, so was everyone else in the party; Starstruck had signaled for his guards to be ready and a few activated their quirks just in case. The sound got louder and an orange glow emanated from one of the windows and suddenly a flaming motorcycle crashed through the window and landed in the middle of everyone, The Rider was here. The roar turned to a low growl as the Rider got off the bike. Knuckleduster was very focused on the Rider as it slowly turned it's flaming head getting a look at everyone before it looked right at Starstruck. The Rider stared at him for a few seconds and before anyone could even see it the Rider was gone from its original spot and is seen standing in front of Starstruck looking at him before saying something only Starstruck could hear before slowly opening its mouth Starstruck was begging for mercy saying no multiple times all while everyone in the room was frozen in fear. Koichi made it back to the main hall and froze at the sight of the Rider in front of Starstruck. Its mouth opened unnaturally wide, snapped shut and it grabbed Starstrucks face forcing him to his knees staring into his eyes as Starstruck screamed in agony before he burst into flames and the Rider snapped his attention to everyone else in the hall. Everyone who was frozen staring at the Rider kill Starstruck regained their movement and began running to the exit while the guards tried to attack and were met by a chain through their chest; the chain impaled all the guards while connecting them together. The chain the Rider was holding flew and wrapped around a pillar getting tighter while hoisting them up in the air like party streamers. The crowd, even more scared, tried getting out but was met by the Riders bike driving in front of the door blocking it as if it had a mind of its own. The Rider slowly made its way down the stairs as it got to the bottom it received a punch to its jaw from Knuckleduster.
"Sorry Matchstick I can't let you kill anymore" Knuckleduster said.
The Rider looked back at him with it's jaw hanging off, the site made Knuckleduster smile but it turned to a frown when it put it back in place. Knuckleduster attempted to punch it again before being stopped by a chain wrap around his waist pulling him to a pillar, trapping him. Koichi seeing this shot a concussive blast toward the Rider it connected and Koichi, believing he had an opening, rushed in before being stopped by a chain coming out of the Rider's back wrapping around him and pinning him to the floor. The Rider looks at the two and seeing their intentions are good puts its focus back on the crowd and walked to the front of them they were all begging for mercy a few using each other as shields the Rider sensed the high amount of sin coming from the crowd Lust, Greed, Pride, Wrath, Gluttony, and a lot of innocent blood spilled. The Rider, enraged at the crowd, spewed fire from it's mouth burning the whole crowd to ashes. The Rider stopped and felt its own hand rubbing it while looking at the way it came in from, before it turned and got back on it's bike. The Rider looked at the two vigilantes trapped in it's chain and released them before rocketing out of the window it arrived through.
Izuku woke with a slight headache, his eyes remained closed but knew light was trying to pierce his eyelids, he knew he'd been asleep for at least a week and the Rider was in control. Eventually he forced his eyes open and saw he was in a church but it was odd it seemed slanted. Izuku looked to the source of light to see a large hole where the entrance would be, sunlight was streaming in so Izuku, a little curious, got up and went through the hole. Izuku was met by a forest. He scanned the tree line and found what he was looking for, a large opening that seemed a little charred; that's where he came from. Izuku looked to his side and saw the Armstrong motorcycle looking far better than before which didn't surprise Izuku as everytime the Rider used it, it was completely fixed which is why he always sold some of its parts to garages trying to restore old bikes. Izuku climbed on the bike and started it up, before leaving he looked back at the church to see it was submerged in the ground and had signs of being visited, told by the graffiti staining it's walls. Izuku turned back and rode off following the trail until he came to the road Izuku drove until he found a town. Izuku was in an internet cafe and began looking through the internet to find mentions of the Rider and the moment he pressed the news the first thing that popped up was "FLAMING SKELETON VILLAIN GOES ON KILLING SPREE ACROSS NORTHERN JAPAN!" the only thing Izuku could do was sigh at the amount of articles, and videos catching him. Izuku takes his bike back to the storage container and puts it in before exiting and closing it. Izuku finally made his way to his car and saw how nature seemed to try and take it. Izuku got in the front seat and transformed, the car immediately burst into flames and burned the greenery on it while also fixing the car. Izuku transformed back and left the area to go home.
Izuku arrived back at the apartment complex knowing the earful he was going to get as he left his phone here; he knew it'd most likely get destroyed if he kept it. Also, he knew the Rider wouldn't have picked it up anyway so he just left it. Izuku was correct, the moment he entered Inko, Hisashi, Izuka, Izuki, and Izumi were scolding him for making them worried and leaving his phone. Much to Izuku's fury (but he didn't show that) Izuka and Izumi as well as their class were attacked a few days prior by villains at the USJ. "Are you kidding me, it's U.A their security is supposed to be impenetrable and where the hell was All Might? Was he just sitting on his ass waiting for the perfect moment to get more of the spotlight!" Izuku said. This shocked the whole family as before he left he held The Symbol of Peace in a very high asteme once going as far as sucker punching a kid who insulted All Mights merch. So seeing him insult All Might was a very jarring wake up call to them, this was not the same Izuku who left six years ago.
A few hours earlier
The heroes were having a meeting about this flaming skeleton. Many of them expressed their frustration that he hadn't been caught. The heroes talked about this skeleton's speed and even compared him to Endeavor, which he scoffed at, "That skeleton is nothing compared to me! I'll show you when I take him down!"
"That probably isn't a good idea as he is a flaming skeleton so your Hellflame may do nothing at all.'' Sir Nighteye told him.
Endeavor realizing that he didn't think that through sat down and grumbled in agreement.
"Well now that everyones quiet I'd like to show you this" Nighteye said as he showed a map of his movements across Japan which showed he appeared in Tokyo went North, stopped at multiple places and eventually making it to Amori and disappearing around Akita. It also seems this skeleton didn't stop and rest at all during his terror across the north." Nighteye said. "This skeleton villain has been in Japan for a while" Nighteye says while pulling up news reports from 3 months ago "And all the victims they could identify/found had a connection all of them have killed, raped, stolen, and lied to people and most were designated Villains while some were only suspects, also the skeleton is foreign" Nighteye said.
This surprised the majority of the heroes. "In the Americas a very similar villain has been wreaking havoc for the past five years." The heroes were even more surprised and frustrated.
Mirko slammed her hands down, "How the hell couldn't the heroes in America catch this bastard!?" Mirko questioned.
"Things are different there and after 2 years of not being able to catch him the U.S decided to leave him alone as he didn't kill any civilians and only killed Villains and the occasional Hero who was found to have abused their position." Nighteye explained. The heroes couldn't believe what they were hearing.
"What about the other countries in the Americas?" Edgeshot asked.
Nighteye responded, "They did try but after a year they just gave him the Hero title, as in Canada, Mexico, Brazil and the many other countries Heroes are perfectly fine with killing."
A depressing mood showered over the room as the information sunk in everyone was silent for a while before Nighteye broke the silence. "We do have a name for him though it isn't his real name as that is unknown, the name was given to him by a police precinct in Jackson, Missouri, 'The Ghost Rider'." The name sunk in before Nighteye explained how the Hero Agencies and police departments in multiple countries were sending as much info about him they could and concluded the meeting declaring Japan would be the last country the Ghost Rider would ever terrorize.
Chapter Four
2 Weeks later
Izuku has not transformed since the Rider came out, deciding to lay low and let the heroes around him handle it since Japan's crime rate is 6 percent. Today was the sports festival and Izuku as well as his parents were saying words of encouragement to the triplets. After they leave, Izuku tells his parents he's going to watch in the stands as he actually got a ticket to surprise and embarrass his sisters. Inko and Hisashi were ecstatic and ushered him out of the apartment and told him to have fun. Izuku arrived and took out a VIP ticket displaying the information on his room. He got it as a gift from a Pro Hero he knew before she went pro. Making his way to the VIP stands he sees the name of the Pro he's looking for on a door. He knocks and a few seconds pass and he's greeted by a very frustrated Mirko opening the door but before she could say whatever she was going to say her face immediately turns into a shit eating grin on the sight of Izuku and she takes him into a bear hug, "How the hell are you doing Izuku!" Mirko asked.
"Rumi..can't...breath!" Izuku said his voice strained.
Mirko let him go laughing. In Elementary school Izuku had met Mirko or Rumi Usagiyama as he knew her in a school yard brawl, before long they became friends later tried dating but soon realized that it was best they stayed friends but they did things unusual for best friends. Soon High School separated them since she went to Shiketsu and he went to a normal one but they met up outside of school and Izuku even learned of her time in underground fighting rings he even went to one, but in the summer and spring season when Rumi was 15 specific urges popped up and so that Rumi could keep those urges at bay Izuku took the brunt of those urges and by the end of High school they considered their relationship under the strange category. Rumi led him into the booth before sitting down, the booth was plain with only a mini fridge and a bowl of carrots next to a leather couch. "Sooo, why'd you leave?" Rumi questioned.
"Well, I left because of my family issues and I didn't call because I forgot my phone and couldn't remember your number." Izuku explained nervously, while Rumi looked at him with narrowed eyebrows."Well I have a question, I didn't contact you when I came back so why were you sending things to the apartment?"
"After you left I decided to send some gifts for them to hopefully have a better time since you left, I had sent them under that nickname you gave me in middle school." Rumi explained.
"Yeah I saw thats how I knew it was you, you 'Dumb Bunny'." Izuku said snickering.
"Yeah, yeah. Anyway I just got lucky with that one."
Izuku nods and his attention is taken by Present Mic announcing the beginning of the Annual U.A Sports Festival. Izuku, knowing his time has come, opens a suitcase that just seemed to appear out of nowhere, even Rumi was confused. He opened it and took out custom made merch for each of his sisters. Rumi giggled at this, "Did you bring any extra? I wanna participate in this." Rumi asked. Izuku brought out an Izumi shirt and green sunglasses and handed them to her. Izuku was wearing a #1 brother hat, green sunglasses, and a shirt with all three triplets in their original hero costumes since they were made by him and their parents and they took a picture of all three in a group photo with a caption below saying "The Green Team." Rumi put the shirt over her hero costume which had Izumi in an action pose in her original costume. Rumi looked at the suitcase and noticed another hat but it was white, she picked it up and looked at the words on the bill "#1 Dumb Bunny" she looked at Izuku with a raised eyebrow and he smiled back, she put it on and sat down next to Izuku to watch the courses be introduced.
When Class 1-A walked out Izumi and Izuka were brimming with confidence, Izumi was basking in the cheers waving with a smile and Izuka was walking with a smile next to her. Izuka looked toward a specific booth and that confidence evaporated as she looked down her face red with embarrassment, Izumi hadn't noticed and continued waving they finally stopped and waited for the next hero course class 1-B walked out with heads high but one seemed a little lower than others Izuki made her way to her sisters and noticed Izuka was looking down, "What's wrong Izuka?" Izuki asked. Izumi seemed to finally notice Izukas head was down. Izuka pointed to the booth she looked at, and the other two follow her finger and see Izuku standing there in a shirt obviously made for them, he has a green foam finger, they see next to him the number five hero in a shirt that Izumi even though it was blurry recognized immediately and her jaw dropped she also blushed a deep crimson and immediately began panicking shaking Izuka, "How the hell did he get the number five hero to wear that !?" Izuki on the other hand wasn't embarrassed; her eyes had stars in them and then a look of determination filled her face. Izuku noticed their reactions and smiled. Rumi had a shit eating grin on her face and a carrot in her mouth. Midnight appeared and announced the first game to be an obstacle race. Izuku and Rumi watch on the T.V the contestants go through the obstacles, Izuku chanting all three of his sisters' names in a rhythmic tune while Rumi watches with a never ending grin. The race ended with Bakugou and Izumi tied for first while Izuka came in 4th and Izuka came in 5th. Izuku was clapping with a really large smile that could rival All Might, Rumi was just watching, the never ending grin still plastered on her face. The Cavalry Battle was next; the triplets were all together, with Bakugou on as the rider. The Cavalry Battle ended with the triplets and Bakugou in 3rd because their 10,000,000 band was stolen by a blonde with a quirk able to copy others and they couldn't get it back so they went after other teams. The one hour break before the 1v1 fights had just began and Izuku was on a B-line to the triplets, figuring he embarrassed them enough he put a jacket over the shirt but he still kept the number one brother hat on. Izuku eventually saw Izumi and was slightly surprised to see her making out with Katsuki Bakugou. Izuku walked behind him before clearing his throat Izumi opened her eyes and saw Izuku waving at her, surprised she jumped out of Katsukis embrace "Izuku!?" she screeched. Katsuki was confused before he felt a presence behind him, turning slowly he saw a tall figure smiling down at him in a menacing manner Katsuki would usually not be scared but Izuku's menacing brother mode had activated and was absolutely terrifying. Izumi rammed an elbow into her brother's ribs Izuku grunted before looking at Izumi "Did you really have to do that?" Izuku asked. Izumi responded with a hmph leaving an utterly confused Katsuki. Katsuki shook his head before asking "Who the hell is this Extra." Izumi, realizing she hadn't introduced her brother, immediately rectified that mistake "Kacchan. This is my older brother." Izumi explained. Katsuki looked at the scruffy adult with wild green hair and then looked at Izumi before seeing similarities and introduced himself. Izuku ,not actually caring who Katsuki is, asks Izumi where the other two are and Izumi tells him there in the class 1-A waiting room, and Izuku goes to bother the other two leaving Katsuki and Izumi confused.
Izuku found Izuki and some tall lanky blonde talking to each other on his way to the waiting room. It seemed they wanted it to be secret but Izuku made out a few words as he approached "All Might" "Symbol Of Peace" "One For All". It didn't make sense to Izuku but he just tapped them on the shoulder "What are we talking about?" Izuku questioned.
Both jumped, the blonde was on alert upon seeing Izuku while Izuki seeing Izuku seemed to pale. "What are you doing here?" Izuki questioned.
"What, can I not talk to my sisters before they have to beat the shit out of each other in 1v1s?''Izuku asked.
The blonde was extremely confused about who this man in front of him was, "Young Midoriya. Who is this man?" Izuki, realizing she didn't introduce him said, "Oh, right this is my older brother Izuku Midoriya."
The blonde looked right at Izuku before extending his hand.
"Hello my name is Toshinori Yagi, I'm a trainer appointed to young Izuki here." Toshinori said with a smile. Izuku shook his hand flashing a smile of his own that would definitely rival All Might. Toshinori smiled even more at the display of teeth from Izuku before Izuku patted Izuki on the head and left to find Izuka. Izuku had rounded a corner when he heard voices from the room that said waiting room one. He listened for a few seconds before he knew he heard Izukas voice talking to two others, Izuku knocked before hearing a come in from Izuka. Upon seeing her brother she walked up to him and punched him. Izuku grunted again "What the hell was that for?" Izuku asked tired of being hit in the ribs. I
Izuka replied, "That was because of your cheering with way too much enthusiasm."
Izuku smiled before seeing the other two kids in the and asked Izuka to introduce them Izukas face lit up before introducing Tenya Iida and Ochako Uraraka.
Izuku finally made it back to Rumi's booth, walking in on Rumi eating 4 carrots at once, Rumi finished what she was doing while Izuku sat next to her. They conversed about a lot of random things. "Oh yeah, what did you do in the summer and spring months for the past six years?" Izuku asked. Rumi's ears seemed to droop at that. Izuku noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Well, without you here I couldn't just do that, as if that came to be public knowledge I'd be seen as a slut. So I just bore it and focused on hero work as it kept me distracted from those urges. That's why I keep moving, not staying in one place too long, not just because of my code." Rumi explained.
Izuku looked at her with a pained expression realizing that he was somewhat responsible for that. There was silence in the room before a light bulb seemed to go off in her head. She got up and went to the door, locking it and activating the soundproofing in the walls. Izuku noticed what she was doing and was a little confused as she put the blackout feature on the window. Rumi's crimson eyes met Izuku's emerald eyes; both their eyes seemed to glow in the darkened room. Rumi walked towards Izuku before climbing on his lap facing him, Izuku and Rumi stared into each others eyes before their lips embraced they had been separated for a long time but nothing could keep them from doing this, it was six years late but they didn't care. Izuku grabbed her waist as Rumi tied her legs around him as the kiss deepened before Rumi leaned back pulling Izuku down to the floor but continued before they took a break for a breath both panting with a smile. Rumi wrapped her legs around Izukus waist and flipped them over and pinned his arms down, smirking down at him. Izuku returned the smirk before their lips interlocked again.
Izuku stood up putting the jeans he was wearing back on, Rumi was laying on the couch fully nude with a carrot in her mouth. The Festival had just ended and interrupted Rumi and Izuku "blowing off steam" but they didn't really mind as they were back in a good mindset, something both needed immensely. Izuku didn't realize how much pent up stress had accumulated because of the Rider, but it just seemed to disappear after this. Rumi was in the same boat; she had to lock away those urges for six years without Izuku, and finally got it out of her system. Izuku sat down on the floor next to the couch, and Rumi rolled over to look at him, "Ya know I missed this weird relationship we have." Izuku chuckled in response. The two sat in silence before Rumi stood up and walked over to the hero costume she had thrown off. Izuku did the same and started putting the rest of his clothes on. Izuku talked to Rumi a little longer before a knock at the door interrupted the two, Rumi got up and answered the door behind it was a lanky man with a suit and polka dot tie. Izuku recognized him as Sir Nighteye, All Might's former sidekick and owner of the very successful Nighteye Hero Agency. Nighteye was about to ask Rumi something when he noticed Izuku who just waved at him Nighteye seemed to evaluate Izuku before returning his gaze to Rumi "Meet with me outside." Nighteye asked before leaving. Rumi looked back at Izuku before taking her phone and throwing it at him, telling him "Put your contact info in it." Izuku had left the room with a smile and began towards his car, arriving he saw Izumi, Izuki, and Izuka waiting somewhat impatiently, seeing Izumi's foot tapping at a fast rate and Izuka's finger tapping his trunk as she leaned on it. Izuki was leaning on the car door and Izuku could make out the glint of silver around her neck which made Izuku's smile grow wider.
Chapter Five
Izuki got second place because each opponent was just repulsed out of the ring immediately by her quirk but the last opponent to determine who got first was Katsuki Bakugou. He figured out how to stop himself from being launched out by using a large explosion and won. When they got home the triplets were bombarded by Hisashi and Inko both crying happy tears laced with worry over their performance. When that was over Izuki asked Izuku to follow her towards their room and found his other two siblings sitting in chairs with their arms crossed and Izuki joined them. Izuku was interrogated by the triplets on how he knew the Number five hero. Izuku told them about how they met and became good friends lying about the brawl and sex, which satisfied them, then they bombarded him with questions about Rumi and how she was when the cameras weren't on her but Izuku shot them down and left leaving the triplets to grumble in annoyance.
Izuku was standing on the balcony connected to the apartment at 2 AM. When he knew no one was awake he walked to the railing and hopped over, scaling down with as much precision as someone who's done this thousands of times. He made it to the ground floor and walked to his car. Izuku sat in the car a second before a presence he's felt so many times it doesn't surprise him when it appears. In the corner of his eye he sees a figure sitting in the passenger seat; it was a figure only he could see the Rider. The Rider pointed at Izuku and then itself Izuku knew what it was asking and nodded. The Rider nodded as the its figure disappeared, leaving Izuku to start up the car and drive down the road. Izuku turned into an alley before transforming and going to work. Izuku dealt with a few late night villains before he called it for the night, considering it was 5 AM, and he couldn't let his family wake up without him there as they'd possibly panic from the idea he left without informing them. Izuku had transformed back and was a few blocks from the complex when his phone rang. Izuku looked at the name caller ID "Dumb Bunny" Izuku smiled before answering "whats up?"
Rumi couldn't seem to sleep; she had so many thoughts running through her head. Nighteye had asked her to be at a hero meeting about the Ghost Rider, when she was there they went over the info sent. Rumi read over a few of the victims files and after reading them a pattern showed itself to her that honestly made her start to agree with the riders actions. When she read about an animal quirk trafficking ring stopped by the rider, she really wanted to tell the heroes around her to let him do what he does. Nighteye had come up with a plan to find him involving going through all foreigners who came to Japan in the past four months. The heroes agreed to this and the meeting ended but Rumi was conflicted, on one side she had a job to do, but on the other the people the rider took care of some very bad people the heroes couldn't even get to. Rumi had been thinking about it and just needed someone to talk to so she called Izuku.
"I just need someone to talk to, so can you come over? Sorry it's so late." Rumi explained. Izuku thought for a little,"Sure, but I won't be there for at least an hour."
"That's fine, thanks, see you soon."Rumi said and hung up.
Izuku sped up a little and got back to the apartment complex he parked and scaled the building back to the balcony. Izuku went to his room and wrote a note on how he went out and told his family he should be back later that day and put it on the fridge. Izuku left and arrived where Rumi was staying. A one story house with a very modern design, the driveway was vacant which made sense considering she had a hero license and could use her quirk in public. Izuku parked in the driveway and made his way to the door and knocked. He waited a solid few seconds before Rumi appeared in the doorway. She was wearing a sports bra and sweatpants and her hair was also up. She led Izuku inside where they sat down, "So, what's wrong Rumi?" Izuku asked.
"It's this new villain 'The Ghost Rider' I don't understand how the heroes in America could just let him run rampant and not try to catch him it seems so easy he's just a skeleton and I'm sure he'd fall apart with one good kick. But he also saves people and I'll admit after the Rider appeared in the America their crime percentage went down and crime became almost as rare as it is here." Izuku hadn't really expected the Rider to come up but decided to just listen to his friend vent her frustration. Rumi finally finished after about 30 minutes.
"Why are you venting to me when you usually speak your mind to anyone?" Izuku asked.
Rumi leaned back onto the couch. "This case is very different to the ones I'm used to, this ghost just confuses me. I've never heard or encountered a Villain like this, and I just don't know what I know." Rumi explained.
Izuku looked at his friend and thought to himself about how much she's mulling over the Rider, he wished he could ease her confusion but knew it was best she never find out about him being The Ghost Rider. Rumi was tired and just wanted to go to sleep so she got up, walked over to Izuku grabbed his arm and dragged him to her room. Izuku was a little confused.
"What's happening?" Izuku asked.
"I'm tired and I can tell you are too, so both of us are going to sleep." Rumi explained.
Izuku wasn't actually tired but figured it was best to just let it happen. Rumi threw him on the bed and jumped on him pulling him into a hug almost instantly falling asleep, Izuku thought back to when she'd do something similar to this when she was tired and figured they were both going back to old habits and went to sleep with a smile. Izuku's eyes snapped open and he looked around the room expecting someone else to be their but only heard the soft breathing of Rumi still clinging to him. Izuku looked at the ceiling confused he could've sworn he heard a child crying.
Chapter Six
June crept onto Izuku as the Rider was to be set loose on Japan once again. Izuku made preparations by calling Rumi and telling her he'd be gone for around two weeks going on a road trip, so Rumi asked that they meet one more time before he left. Izuku arrived at the house and saw Rumi waiting on the curb. Rumi hopped in.
"Ok, you remember those underground fight clubs we used to watch?" Rumi asked.
"Yeah. I also remember 'Tiger Bunnies' awkward entrance. " Izuku said with a smirk remembering Rumi's attempt to interrupt the fight but ended up being scolded and told the rules of the ring.
"Yeah, well that won't happen this time because I'm not fighting." Rumi responded slightly cringing at the memory.
"So, we're gonna watch one again." Izuku asked.
"YUP!" Rumi said very excited.
"Then what the fuck are we waiting for!" Izuku said putting the pedal to the floor speeding off towards the fights.
Rumi and Izuku had a great time, Rumi was a little pooper pained that they had to leave early due to the authorities having caught wind of the fights and raided the place, luckily they were able to slip out due to Izuku finding a weakened wall, and Rumi smashing through it. Izuku went home after and told his family he'd be leaving again, they weren't as surprised as the first time he told them but they made sure he took his phone which he begrudgingly did. Izuku left Mustafu a few days before he'd let the Rider out so it'd be less suspicious.
Izuku was outside Toei when he saw the road blocked; it was late out so no one was on the desolate road. Izuku came to a stop, and got out when a man in a police uniform walked up to him. "Officer. What happened." Izuku asked.
"Sorry sir, a wreck occurred about a mile up the road and a tanker blew causing a landslide." The officer explained.
Izuku could sense the lie but was a little confused until everything went black. The officer watched Izuku fall at his feet with a hole in his head and looked at the culprit behind Izuku, "Really you got blood on my boots." The imposter stated.
"I don't give a shit." The man said.
"Well, lets dump this guy." The imposter said looking at the cliff next to them.
"Hold up one sec." The man said searching Izuku's pockets and found a wallet and phone. "Ok now we can dump him."
The man grabbed Izuku's legs and dragged him to the barrier, he hoisted Izuku's body over the barrier and threw him over. Izuku hit multiple ledges on the way down and finally hit the bottom with a sickening crack. The men got in Izuku's car and drove off.
Izuku's body sat there for several hours before it started smoking, the fire erupted from it's skull and it stood up. The bones fixed themselves with pops and cracks while it stood there the Rider was pissed Izuku was killed, and most likely robbed. The Rider knew it had a week, so for the first time in a while it had an objective beside killing sinners. Get Izuku's car back while killing everyone in the way. The Rider figured it was too far from it's bike but it had to find a vehicle it looked around before feeling an old engine nearby it made its way toward the vehicle and found the shell of a rusted H-Series Ford Truck in thick overgrown brush. Rider put it's bony hands on the hood and roared before the Truck morphed into a drivable state and it lit a blaze, the rust seemed to burn off revealing the dirty chrome beneath it's wheels were now just balls of fire imitating tires. The Rider climbed into the driver's seat and pulled on the horn which sounded more demonic and sped forward.
Izuku's Plymouth was parked next to several nice looking cars in an underground car lot; all of them had been stolen from now dead owners killed in a similar fashion; the car logging was run by a girl with a yellow streak in her hair and piercing yellow eyes she was wearing a black leather jacket with streaks of white crossing the torso and a stylish skirt and yellow sneakers. She was inspecting the Plymouth when a smile came across her face when she realized it was a rare type that had only six made but to the untrained eye looked like a normal Green Plymouth GTX, each had a nickname engraved on the dashboard this specific one was "Hell Walker." She walked over to the computer and logged the Plymouth into the system. A tall man with a mutant quirk causing him to have scales walked out of the freight elevator and looked at the girl "Kiiro." He said. Kiiro jumped in her seat before her eyes landed on her boss, "So, tell me about the new car."
Kiiro hopped over the desk. "Well, it's a goddamn golden egg, this car was one of only six made and each one can be sold for 500k each." She said with a pep in her step "Who'd you take it off of?" Kiiro asks.
"Some guy with green highlights, it doesn't matter though he's dead." He finishes.
Just then a truck's horn could be heard in the distance confusing both the boss and Kiiro.
Two Hours Earlier
The Rider is doing things differently; it needs info and knows how much the Plymouth means to Izuku since he got it before it bonded to him in a street race against a guy with a driving quirk; it represented how just because you were quirkless doesn't mean useless and it respected that. The Rider stopped the truck on the side of the road and turned it back to normal before it leaned back in its seat and concentrated. The Rider was trying to sense the man who was wearing the police uniform so it could get the info it needed. It zeroed in on his location, a club where patrons could forget their daily problems and just relax, dance, and just enjoy life. The Rider noticed the high sin count but found it belonged to teenagers, the Rider groaned at this and realized it was best to walk in without killing anyone so it didn't accidentally break it's 1st condition with Izuku, It thought of something and drove towards the club. The Rider arrived outside the club and parked the truck in an alleyway across from it. It stepped out of the truck with a noticeable difference. It was wearing the same clothes Izuku died in but it was also wearing an oni stylized biker helmet hiding the fire, but a very dim glow did emanate out of the matte black visor, its chain was wrapped around its torso, It was also wearing gloves not showing its boney hands. The Rider made its way inside being greeted by a dance of colorful lights and people dancing the Rider was doing it's best not to level the building and made it towards an employees only area not being guarded and closed the door behind it. It had made it close to the office overlooking the main dance floor, having to deal with a few guards in a quick fashion snapping their necks or stabbing them with the hook on the chain before continuing on. Finally at the door it could sense the man in the office and he was alone. The Rider kicked the door down and sent the chain towards the man wrapping him up and pulling him towards it "WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, MY BOSS WILL KILL YOU!" The man screamed.
The Rider held him up by the collar and asked in it's raspy voice "Where's the Plymouth?". This shocked the man as he thought him and the others were careful when getting that car, "How-" he was asking before noticing the clothes it was wearing, remembering the guy they stole it from wearing the same green overcoat hoodie, beige sweater with blue jeans and red shoes."How, you're supposed to be dead!" The man screeched, now panicking. The Rider in response took one hand off the man's collar and flipped the visor up showing the deep dark pits for eyes the Rider had; the sight made the man go slack in realization he stole the Ghost Rider's car and he wanted it back. The man began to cry as he stuttered "We took it to a stolen car ring run by a guy named Robert." The Rider noted the name as an obviously foreign name.
"Where are they?"The Rider asked.
"An old warehouse on the outskirts of town, you can't miss it." The man said.
The Rider now knowing what he wanted grabbed the man's face as it pushed him to his knees. The Rider forced him to look into its eyes and the man started screaming his screams drowned out by the loud disco music playing. The Rider made its way to the truck as it blocked out all the sins around it, climbing into the driver's seat, the engine rumbled to life as it focused on the place it needed to go and drove off.
The Rider reignited the truck as the warehouse was now in sight It decides to take a page out of Izuku's book with slight theatrics and honks as it speeds right for the wall of the warehouse. The thugs inside were on edge when they heard the distorted horn of the Riders truck and the loud engine. The Rider came through the wall killing 5 people in the process before drifting into a donut, spinning around the warehouse killing most of the thugs there as the others were choking on the thick smoke coming from the truck. It stopped and the Rider emerged, seeing a few thugs escaped its spin of death and made quick work of them with its chain. The Rider looked around, walked toward a freight elevator and pried the doors open with no effort. It looked down and saw the elevator already at the bottom. It jumped and landed next to the escape hatch. Kiiro and Robert were focused on the elevator hearing all the carnage above they activated their quirks Kiiro had yellow streaks cover her as if she grew veins and claws made of energy protruding from her nails. Robert was just standing there, his mouth was opened enough to see smoke billowing out and a orange glow in his throat they waited until the sound of groaning metal was heard followed by a thud, another clang and silence. The elevator doors flew at the two who dodged out the way the doors instead hitting two of the cars behind them Kiiro and Robert were pissed they looked at the elevator and saw a figure in an oni mask before Robert lit him up filling the elevator with flames. Believing the guy had been dealt with, Kiiro relaxed, deactivating her quirk, Robert thinking the same, closed his mouth and was about to turn to see the damage to the cars before a chain went through his shoulder dragging him into the flames screaming and then silence. Kiiro was frozen in terror as she recognized that chain, she had seen the news and never would have expected him to appear here. The Ghost Rider walked out of the flames the helmet showed no sign of being in any fire before its attention snapped to the shaking Kiiro it tilted its head as if studying her. Kiiro blinked and it was standing in front of her gazing down at the girl. Kiiro thought she was gonna die so she closed her eyes accepting her fate but it never happened instead the sound of an engine filled her ears. Kiiro opened her eyes to see the Green Plymouth shed its green for charred black and red lines streaming across it. The Plymouth rocketed forwards and straight towards a wall, the wall melted as it went through and up out of the ground landing on the road and driving away. Kiiro looked at the tunnel melted by the Ghost Rider before she began rethinking her entire life wondering if a 17 year old should actually be doing this.
A few hours later the heroes and police were at the crime scene they had gotten an anonymous tip and rushed over. Naomossa and Fat Gum had just arrived, they observed the crime scene, and it was swarmed with forensics taking pictures of the burnt truck and putting numbered signs over piles of ash, an officer approached the duo "It was definitely the Rider, everything fits his MO the only difference is theirs a survivor." the officer explained. The duo's ears perked up at that as in all cases in Japan there were never survivors. "Could we talk to them?" FatGum asked. The officer nodded and motioned them to follow. They came to an ambulance and saw Kiiro sitting there with a cup of water, "Excuse me ma'am could you tell us what happened here?" Naomossa asked.
Kiiro nodded "At first we didn't realize it was him, Robert tried to kill him with fire but that didn't work and he was dragged into the flames he made. The moment I saw the chain I realized who it was, but he looked different." The detective and hero were confused hearing this."The Ghost Rider was wearing an oni themed biker helmet. He stood in front of me. I thought I was gonna die, but then he just took the Plymouth and left." Kiiro finished.
Noamossa asked about the car the Ghost Rider took and Kiiro told him it was a rare one and only six had been made; she also explained the nicknames for them and how this one was called "Hell Walker". Naomossa wrote it down and thanked her before leaving with Fat Gum.
The Rider was speeding down a country road when a feeling made it slam on the breaks and leave the car. It looked around frantically as it felt it's palm before the feeling dissapeared. The Rider was confused It knows what that feeling was but at the same time It never felt anything like it, all It knew was a child was just killed and It couldn't do anything to help. The Rider was angry and knew It needed to kill some sinners It got back in the car but it's attention snapped to the treeline, but nothing was there It could've sworn It heard a child crying.
Chapter Seven
4 days later
The sun was rising signaling the new day and gleaming into Izukus eyes making him stir. Izuku woke up in his car on a cliff overlooking Mustafu city. Izuku was very confused before the presence was next to him; he looked at the smokey figure of the Rider before it turned and began moving its hands, explaining why he had no recollection of turning into the Rider. Izuku was shocked by what had happened; he never thought the Rider would do something like that for him, he was a little mad it used his car for the week breaking the 2nd condition, but let it go considering it got it back for him. his eyes then landed on the oni helmet and picked it up; he examined it looking at the charred bits and cracks in the visor before deciding to keep it for a reminder of this event.
Izuku stood outside the door to his family's apartment, mentally preparing himself for whatever scolding he'd get and knocked on the door. Inko opened the door and grabbed Izuku's ear dragging him in and before Izuku could protest she shut the door, he was dragged to the couch and was bombarded with worried and angry scolding by every member for a good 30 minutes. "I get it I pissed you all off, sorry." Izuku said.
"Now, why the hell didn't you call?" Inko asked, obviously pissed.
"Honestly, I just didn't wanna talk to anyone. When I'm on the road it's to be alone and I like it. It may seem weird to you guys, but it's just something I do." Izuku stated.
"So you just don't want to talk to us?" Izumi asked confused.
"I don't talk to anyone, I don't do this to get away from you guys I just don't wanna talk to anyone. So next time I do this don't expect a phone call." Izuku said getting up and going to his room. The family didn't know what to do; they were concerned he would leave again, but after a while of talking decided to just let him do these drives.
A few hours later. Izuku was relaxing on his bed reading about the events of the week when he got a call from Rumi. "He-" Izuku was saying before being cut off.
"Hey Izuku can you come over...PLEASE!" Rumi asked, seeming frantic.
"Uh, sure but why?" Izuku asked
"Doesn't matter just get your di... JUST GET OVER HERE!" Rumi yelled before hanging up.
Izuku was left confused, until he checked the date and realized he might know why he's been called. Izuku arrived at Rumi's house a little past midnight. Izuku had a possible idea why he was called, it was a few weeks from summer break and he had a lot of memories of this of year before he left. Izuku braced himself when he walked in sure enough Rumi pounced on him not even a second after opening the door she dragged him in before shutting the door and locking all the locks even putting a bar on it. Izuku looked at the windows and noticed the newly installed bars and realized he was gonna be here awhile. Rumi loomed over him, he had finally seen her face and it had this bright blush and lustful eyes staring into his own emerald eyes she crouched down and crawled over him she laid there staring at him. Rumi grabbed his face and made out with him. It was deep and very rough; her lounge danced with his and she continued that for a solid 10 minutes. When she finally unlocked their lips a long line of spit connected their mouths as she panted with her tongue out. Izuku was coughing and began remembering all the times she had done this very thing. He had to train his body to survive 20 minutes without oxygen because of the first time. Izuku's break didn't last long as Rumi went for his neck actually biting it and drawing a little blood, Izuku didn't wince at this as it happened a lot. Izuku could feel the heat radiating off her and this made him a little nervous as he realized she was fully letting those urges out.
The next day
Rumi's eyes slowly opened to the afternoon light coming from a crack in her curtains she put her hand down and felt the thing she was laying on it wasn't her bed she looked up and saw the face of a sleeping Izuku. Rumi looked at his neck seeing the bite mark and realized exactly what happened. She rose to a sitting position and held her head trying to remember the events that lead to Izuku getting here when she finally remembered she stood up and looked around at the mess in her living room. "Well, shit." Rumi said.
Izuku and Rumi had taken a shower and were now sitting at the table eating breakfast/lunch.
"Ok, I gotta know what's the most awkward moment you've had as a hero." Izuku asked.
"Hmmm, I think it was during the beginning of my career. I was fighting this armored villain, I made a rookie mistake and he got a hit off, launched me straight through a wall right into a random girls room. I look to my right and she's doing this weird jungle gym exercise in the nude. We had locked eyes for a moment while she was doing an upside down split. Next thing I remember was me jumping back into the fight and I haven't seen her since." Rumi stated. Izuku didn't laugh but was amused at his friend's tale.
"Now since I told you my tale why not not tell me one of your most awkward stories in America?" Rumi said smirking.
Izuku sat there for a moment with his hand on his chin while looking down at the table, it seemed he was really thinking, trying to fish out a memory to tell. "Well, there was this town I drove through. I stopped at an internet cafe and was looking at news articles, and a random ad popped up. I hadn't noticed it and so I accidentally pressed it and was led to a sight filled with lesbian porn, and of course one of the workers walked past and saw the sight. I was kicked out and told I was a 'degenerate piece of shit'."
Rumi looked at him processing what she just heard before erupting into laughter. Izuku smiled at her before feeling something for a second before it disappeared, the same feeling he had a month back. The crying child. Rumi must've noticed Izuku's frenzied face. "Izuku? What's wrong?" Rumi asked a little concerned.
"Huh? Oh nothing, don't worry, just thinking about that memory made me alert, that's all." Izuku said.
Rumi didn't really believe that but said nothing, deciding not to pry. She poked at the eggs in front of her before looking at Izuku. "Izuku, what's the worst thing about America in your opinion?"
"The red necks, racists, southern sympathizers and random women yelling at people just doing their jobs." Izuku said while shoving bacon in his mouth.
"Red necks?" Rumi asked, kinda confused.
"These guys or gals who waved guns cursed like sailors and posibly fucked their own siblings."
Rumi was stunned and realized her stories were probably nothing compared to Izukus about America. Izuku took out his phone and looked at the time. "Hey Rumi, I'm gonna go."
"What,? Why?" Rumi asked
"Well, I honestly just wanna drive around."
"Oh. I don't understand that."
"Eh, well people like different things." Izuku said, pushing his chair from under the table.
"Yeah I guess you're right."
Izuku made his way to the coat rack and grabbed the rough green overcoat that he had been known to wear. "Well see you soon Rumi" Izuku said with a two fingered salute before opening the door and disappearing through it. Rumi sat there for a moment before a thought entered her mind and she dashed for the door. Izuku walked out to his car before Rumi ran out and intercepted him "Take me for a ride Izuku." Rumi demanded
Izuku raised an eyebrow. "Didn't I do that most of last night?" Izuku asked.
"NOT THAT TYPE!" Rumi shouted "I mean in your car."
Izuku chuckled "I know I was just messing with you, get in."
"YES!" she exclaimed as she hopped over the car to the other side and got in.
Izuku got in, started the car and drove off. They drove around town while Rumi jammed to the villain's playlist Izuku set up; the irony wasn't lost on either of them. Eventually they came across a robbery in progress and before Rumi could get them, they sped away. She slammed her hand on the dash, "Izuku move it we got villains butt to kick!" Izuku barely hesitates and puts the pedal to the floor. Rumi takes off her shirt revealing her hero outfit underneath, throwing it in the back and she starts taking off her pants. Izuku glanced at her while drifting around a corner avoiding cars and slowly getting closer to the villains before asking "When the hell did you put that on?".
"Na ah that is a Mirko secret that will never be revealed." Mirko responded as she crawled out of the side window eventually perching on the hood with her signature smirk. Izuku chased the villains and got close enough for Mirko to leap towards the vehicle, leaving Izuku to spin out because of the force. Mirko prepares an axe kick and yells out "Luna Fall!"' smashing into the back of the car causing it to flip backward above her, landing upside down.
Izuku parked close to the wreck and walked out "Mirko what the hell was that!" Izuku yelled
"What was what?" Mirko asked.
"You almost making me crash dumbass!"
"Well sorry! I was busy trying to get the villains!"
They were arguing as police arrived followed by the press watching a seemingly normal person arguing with a top ten hero in a familiar way. Izuki was watching the hero news channel when she saw the footage from a helicopter of Izuku's car following the villains, upon seeing this she yelled for the others saying Izuku was on the news they gathered around the T.V watching in surprise as it showed him evading cars very easily and were shocked when the pro hero Mirko climbed out of the passenger seat on to the hood, the triplets had stars in their eyes seeing Izuku and Mirko seemingly working together though their hearts collectively dropped when Izuku spun out because of Mirko's jump but were very surprised at how he regained control of the vehicle as if he'd done it a lot before. They watched as he stopped the car next to the wreck, getting into an argument with the pro hero about something. Izuku was leaning on the Plymouth away from Rumi giving a statement answering a few questions Izuku was watching before a reporter came up to him and began asking questions. Izuku answered a few questions dodging a few mostly one aimed at who he was, what his relations were with Mirko and if he was a hero. Eventually Mirko got away from the crowd and bounded away, Izuku in turn drove away.
Chapter Eight
Japans summer break was here, no school, beach days and Izuku being informed his siblings would be sent to a summer camp for the duration of break for training for hellish training. Izuku was unconvinced of the safety protocols instilled as well as a little paranoid as a few days before Izuki had an encounter with a villain involved with the USJ and Hosu. The supposed leader of the league of villains Tomura Shigaraki. Izuku was in protective brother mode and was not letting them out of his sight but knew he'd never be allowed to go, so a few hours after the triplets left, Izuku left the apartment telling his parents he was gonna visit Tokyo and should be back in the next week or so. Izuku got to his car and looked at his hand he grabbed the transforming his hand to get a sense of where they were, finding the training facility but staying far but close enough to sense disturbances. The week mostly passed with Izuku messing around with his abilities without transforming; he had a good handle on them but still had to transform to hold even a small fire to Endeavor. The final day of the training camp was upon them and Izuku was laying on the hood of his car gazing at the stars he had his hand transformed in case anything happened then he felt something. Izuku shot up and narrowed his eyes at the blue fire in the distance, Izuku hopped off the hood and stood at the cliffs edge and transformed. Izuki was in a full sprint towards the cliffs knowing Kota was there, she rounded a corner and saw a large figure in a cloak raising a fist seemingly to crush the poor boy. Izuki acted fast activating 5% of OFA and rushed past the hulking figure pushing Kota out of the way of the fist the impact cracking the ground. Izuki and Kota landed with a tumble rolling a little away, Kota asked if she was ok Izuki responded with a yeah and rose to her feet. The villain was a little surprised to see someone save the kid in front of him but shook it off before he began walking towards the two kids. Izuki stood up OFA coursing through her and put her fists up and a shaky smile crept across her face.
"Wait, that's the man who killed my parents, please run he'll do the same to you!" Kota said while crying. Izuki glanced back at Kota before getting in a fighting stance.
"Oh, that's great I'll take my time with you, now SHOW ME YOUR BLOOD!" Muscular screamed as he launched at them. He used his quirk to increase the muscle around his arms hitting Izuki in her arm, throwing her into the wall making a small crater the sound of a crack could be heard most likely a broken rib she fell to the ground and dodged a quick punch from Muscular but not evading the swift kick to the ribs with another crack another rib broken. Muscular believing her to be down directs his attention to Kota he walks up to the trembling boy and raises his fists, a green flash races behind him Izuki was pushing through the pain and put her arm between the muscle fibers. Muscular was about to punch her when Izuki reared back her fist yelling about how she'd save Kota putting 100% into her arm and punched him the shockwave sent dust everywhere and sent Kota flying over the side of the cliff luckily Izuki caught the collar of his shirt in her mouth and pulled him up. Half of Izuki's shirt was torn off by the force of the 100% punch luckily she was wearing a reinforced bra underneath, she usually wore it under her hero suit in case it tore, her arm was broken with a few places bleeding she was smiling shakily while Kota was asking if she was ok.
"It's ok, it looks worse than it is." Izuki lied. They were about to leave when a rumble behind them got their attention. Muscular retracted his muscle and smiled at the two in sadistic glee, Izuki was shocked that he could withstand 100% but still held her unbroken fist up while her broken one remained limp at her side, she was running on pure adrenaline and following her instincts getting in front of Kota in a protective stance. Muscular walked closer as Izuki lunged at him fist pulled back with 40% running through it, Muscular caught her arm in his giant muscled hand and crushed it Izuki screamed in pain as she was tossed at the wall another crack heard this time being her back. Kota ran to her side crying while Muscular loomed over them he raised his fists in a similar fashion to how he killed Kotas parents but before he could crush them an engine could be heard. Muscular looked up and saw an orange glow he backed up to the edge of the cliff to try to get a better look and was met with a flaming Plymouth rocketing off the higher cliff ledge and rammed into Muscular sending him and the car into the forest below with a loud thud, Kota was confused and Izuki who was struggling to stay conscious looked at a figure walking towards them. Kota noticed it and raised his hands spraying water but the water evaporated as it continued its march towards them, Kota was terrified by it's visage a ashen skull surrounded by fire and dark pits for eyes. He comes closer before getting on one knee next to Izuki ,who finally lost consciousness, and puts out the flames surrounding its body before a blue fire crept back up from its neck and put its hand on her head, a small green aura emanating from her as her wounds somewhat healed but not completely. He looked at Kota and asked, "Are you ok?"
Kota realizing he wasn't going to hurt him nodded sheepishly. He picked Izuki up. "Follow me," He said, and Kota nodded as they walked towards the training camp. Izuku was in control but had to stay calm and focus on getting his sister to someone more equipped to deal with her injuries Kota was walking beside him wondering who their savior was a few minutes later the sound of a battle was heard Izuku could sense someone was in danger he carefully put his sister on the ground.
"Watch her, I'll be back." Izuku said before running towards the fight. Mandalay was able to dodge the first swing from Spinner's amalgamation of swords but was hit by her comrade Tiger who was sent towards her by Magne using her magnet pillar. Magne stood next to Spinner ready to attack the two pussy cats when a chain erupted through spinners shoulder surprising everyone Spinner screamed in pain and was pulled back to its origin seeing the Ghost Rider holding Spinner by his scarf Izuku looks at the man and sees his past and sins figuring he's just a stain fanboy with a bad past he just drops him on the ground and looks at Magne. Izuku sees her past but sees she's killed a lot of people, she would not get the same treatment, Izuku launches his chains at her but what he wasn't expecting was tiger to intercept the chains and yank Izuku towards him, but he is intercepted by a swift kick in the ribs by Mandalay sending him into a tree. Izuku wasn't gonna kid himself, he forgot heroes usually don't just watch you kill someone for a minute. Magne took advantage of the heroes focusing on Izuku to get her ally Spinner away to the rendezvous point, Izuku stood up but a scarf appeared and wrapped him up and Eraserhead pinned him to the ground commenting how that was pretty easy, he activated his quirk to confirm something and seeing how Izuku didn't turn into a human and his fire didn't go out Eraser assumed he had a mutant type quirk. Izuku melted the scarf wrapping him up this slightly surprised Eraserhead before throwing Eraser off him, he landed next to Mandalay. Eraser told them to attack him while he had his quirk deactivated but what Eraser didn't expect was for Izuku to turn and bolt into the forest and out of sight. Izuku had to get Kota and Izuki to the heroes so he didn't have time to fight, he made it back to the two. Kota was happy to see him.
"Listen I've gotta leave but don't worry help is coming." Izuku said.
Hearing that, Kota was relieved and looked at Izuki before looking back at Izuku and saw he was gone. Izuku made his way back to his car, finding it to be on top of Muscular. He was trying to get out from under it but it seemed chains were keeping it anchored to the ground. Izuku made his way over getting the attention of Muscular when he recognized the figure approaching him, he laughed, "It's you! You've been giving the heroes a run for their money, I've really wanted to fight you!"
Izuku got next to the villain trapped under the car before crouching next to him looking at him. Muscular noticed something different about the Ghost Rider in front of him; he felt as if he was angry ,no, he was absolutely furious with him. Izuku put his hand under the bumper of his car and raised it, the chains holding it down snapped and Izuku kicked muscular from under it, sending him through a few trees. Muscular stood up as if nothing happened and launched at Izuku, but before his fist connected, something wrapped around his arms pulling him to the cliff's wall, pinning him against it. Muscular looked at his arms and saw chains had pinned him. Izuku walked up to Muscular, as he pulled the chains, and grabbed his face making him look into his eyes "Goto Imasuji! Your soul is stained with the blood of the innocent!" Izuku said making Musculars eyes widen "FEEL THEIR PAIN!" Muscular began screaming as he felt all the pain he inflicted on others, it was heard by the heroes, the students and a few villains in the forest. Dabi was with Twice when the scream hit their ears and upon hearing it knew something was wrong. "Twice make a clone and send it towards that scream." Dabi told the man in spandex. Todoroki was with Bakugou, Izumi and Izuka trying to get back to the camp, and when they heard the scream they were on edge. Izuku held Musculars skull in his hand, "May those you've hurt finally be at peace."
"Nice light show." A voice behind Izuku said.
Izuku turned and dropped the skull. Izuku looked at the man with scars all over his body, he studied him for a moment before saying "Fake."
"What?" Dabi clone asked.
"You have no soul." Izuku said before sending a chain at the clone's abdomen. He dodged out of the way and sent a wave of blue flames toward Izuku. Dabi Clone smiled before another chain emerged from the fire and decapitated it, turning to goo. Izuku felt the sins of the villains in the forest and found a few had vanished, this confused him until he remembered the report from the USJ about the warp villain and remembering this he was super pissed off because that meant they just escaped "GOD DAMMIT!" Izuku screamed.
The police and paramedics arrived to haul off the captured villains and the injured students. The heroes also found the remains of Muscular or his skull next to a pile of ash. Izuku drove to the hospital in Kamino and skid to a stop in the parking lot. Izuku ran towards the entrance and up to the receptionist.
"Excuse me, I'm looking for Izuka, Izumi and Izuki Midoriya." Izuku frantically said. The receptionist told him he couldn't enter because an investigation was going on. Izuku was pissed but knew the receptionist wasn't to blame so he left the hospital before the anger boiled over. Izuku grabbed a metal pole and melted it in his hands to calm down. Izuku leaned against the car a thousand thoughts going through his mind,is Izuki okay, are Izumi or Izuka hurt, he realized Inko and Hisashi will probably see the news about the attack if they haven't already. Izuku got in his car drove back to Mustafu to check on his parents.
Chapter Nine
Izuku was sitting in his living room glaring daggers into the former symbol of peace who sat at the opposite couch facing him. Ever since All Might beat All for One the world has known of All Might's skinny form, but Izuku remembered the man he saw talking to Izuki and he wasn't gonna let that go until he got an answer about why he was training Izuki, but before he could. "Mr and Mrs Midoriya, I would like to ask if you would allow U.A to watch over your children as we are turning U.A into a boarding school and that would mean they would live on campus in dorms.'' All Might explained. Inko and Hisashi looked at each other and nodded and told the former symbol of peace they could go. The triplets erupted in celebration and All Might thanked Inko and Hisashi and had them sign the forms for the dormitories and left, unknown to All Might he was shadowed by Izuku. All Might made it to the elevator and pushed the ground floor button and the door closed. All Might hadn't noticed Izuku standing next to him and Izuku asked,''What is the number one doing as a trainer for my sister?" All Might jumped and backed up to the wall of the elevator. All Might would be lying if he said the boy's presence didn't scare him. There was something to Izuku that basically screamed 'You better not lie to me'.
"I'll ask again. Why are you training Izuki?" Izuku questioned.
All Might responded, "I see potential in young Midoriya."
Izuku had his hands in his coat pocket and transformed it the moment he entered the elevator. He could tell he was being told a half truth. Izuku looked at All Might as he stared back. They were sizing each other up wondering who would break first. The stare was interrupted by the elevator ding. All Might took the opportunity to get out of the enclosed space and left it, he looked back to meet Izuku's icy glare.
"Listen to me here. Take better care of Izuki you don't have your quirk anymore so you can't fuck around." He said, causing All Might to flinch. Izuku continued glaring at All Might as he pressed the button making the elevator doors close. All Might stood there thinking how Izuku could know about his quirk. He remembered what he said at the press conference after his fight with All For One. All Might specifically said 'I can no longer work as a hero my body has been under too much abuse over the years of being the symbol of peace. My quirk has been weakened significantly as a result of my wounds.' All Might also wondered why he had such a different view on him compared to his family, and made a mental note to ask Izuki about Izuku when he had the chance. All Might left the complex contemplating Izukus words.
Time has passed. It's been a month since the training camp incident. Izuku really doesn't like the dorms that were installed but had no choice in the matter and just hoped U.A did it's job in protecting the students and his sisters. Izuku was sitting in a American themed restaurant about to dig into some american made pancakes when his phone began buzzing he looked at the ID "Dumb Bunny" he slid the accept call button "Whats up?" he asked.
Rumi was digging through her closet when she asked, "Could you be my date to a hero ball?" To say Izuku was shocked is an understatement in all his years of knowing Rumi, she always mocked balls and elegant dances so to hear her ask this was like seeing a fly eat a spider, It doesn't happen. Rumi must've realized she broke him saying those words from the silence "I know, I don't have a real choice. It's at I-Island and it's required of the top 10 to be at the party for publicity or something. I know I probably couldn't handle it without breaking something so I decided to ask you to go and hopefully keep me in check." Rumi explained. Izuku shook off the shock and thought about it for a few moments, he couldn't really think of a reason not to go.
"When's the party?" Izuku asked
"A few days. Also please clean yourself up, you look like a homeless drifter." Rumi said.
Izuku was somewhat offended, and he basically heard her smirking. Izuku didn't completely disagree with her though. He had been wearing the same green overcoat for several years. "Yeah your right." Izuku said with a sigh.
"Of course I am. Anyway I gotta go. I'm probably gonna have to buy a dress since I can't find one in my closet." Rumi said before cutting the call. Izuku sat there for a moment thinking about his fashion sense and realizing he'd need a little help he called his sisters.
The day was here, well It was a day before but that doesn't matter, Izuku arrived at Rumi's house and honked in rhythmic tune and waited. A few moments later Rumi ran out the door in a hoodie and jeans with black boots, and a bag slung over her shoulder. Rumi opened the passenger seat and tossed the bag in the backseat before sitting down. Rumi looked at Izuku, "let's get going." Rumi stated just wanting to get this over with. Izuku nodded, backed up and drove away. They arrived at the private strip Rumi rented. Rumi had gotten to the steps of the plane when she looked back and saw Izuku talking to the valet. "Do not worry. I'll put your car in storage and it'll be safe there." The Valet said.
"It better be. If I find a scratch that wasn't already there I'll bust your kneecaps." Izuku said walking towards the plane. He stooped next to the valet and stated, "And I know how many there are. I've counted." Izuku walked past the valet who shivered. He joined Rumi walking into the plane; she stared after him for a second before shrugging and following. A few hours later Rumi was asleep while Izuku was thinking about what would happen if he transformed the plane, a hell jet was something he wanted to do but never got the chance considering every private airport he's been to was reduced to rubble and flames. Izuku looked out the window and saw I-Island. The sight made him reach for his pocket and pull out a small notebook to write about this new experience, Izuku used to write hero facts in notebooks but after leaving and being bonded to the Rider he became Nomadic and wrote the places he visited instead of hero facts, though he still kept those old notebooks. Izuku noted the apartment complexes and figured that's where they'd stay while here, he shook Rumi awake telling her they arrived. The plane landed and they went through security. Izuku and Rumi eventually made it to their designated complex and went to the desk to get their key. "Hello, welcome to I-Island." The receptionist said with a smile.
"Hi. We reserved a room." Rumi said rather bluntly.
"Under what name?"
"Mirko" Izuku glanced at Rumi when she said that.
The receptionist looked at Rumi, her eyes widened and her smile grew, nodding as she checked the reservations. "Yes, we do. There's a vacant room on the third floor, room 108"
"That'll do ma'am." Izuku said.
The receptionist smiled, "Alright since you're staying for a few days would you like to know about our couples service."
"Oh were not a couple." Izuku said.
The receptionist's smile slightly dropped, "Um, then you do know you will be sleeping in the same bed." She questioned
"Yep" said Izuku/Rumi.
"Alright well here's your key." the receptionist said while handing them a key card.
Rumi took the key and took off for the room, leaving Izuku to thank the receptionist and follow. The receptionist was extremely confused. Izuku and Rumi were putting their things in the drawers. "So, what's the notebook for?" Rumi asked.
Izuku was a little surprised she noticed the pocket sized book in his coat, but chalked it up to her being a pro hero. "It's a recollection of all the places I've been, sort of a diary but about places, not me." Izuku stated.
"Could I get a look at it?" Rumi asked as she was fairly interested in the places he'd been.
Izuku thought about this because he hadn't really considered that his notebook was incriminating evidence and she was on the Ghost Rider Detainment Force (GHDF) as he dubbed it. so he decided against it. "Nah, I'll keep you guessing." Izuku said, earning a groan from Rumi.
Izuku and Rumi explored the island finding a lot of interesting sites and attractions, Rumi participated in the villain attraction and completely destroyed the area. She now holds #1 on the leaderboard permanently. The Expo was also open for the VIP guests and Rumi used her pass to get them in. Izuku was amazed by all the vehicles and started drooling seeing a heavily modified 1987 Pan Head Chopper, but got his head out of the gutter and followed Rumi to explore the Island more. The duo came across multiple heroes from America but Izuku tried to avoid most of them like the plague, and so he had his hood over his head. Rumi seemed to notice this and after getting back to the complex she asks ,"why did you hide your face from those heroes?" Izuku stood silent for a moment clearly thinking what he should say. "I wasn't exactly a law abiding citizen in America." Izuku said, causing Rumi to raise an eyebrow. "I've had a lot of encounters with heroes, even being thrown in jail once or twice though it wasn't longer than a day or two for a brawl breaking out. You've probably figured this out but I was mostly nomadic in the states for the past five years." Rumi wasn't that surprised but did think it made sense considering his traveling habit. She was brought out of her thoughts when Izuku asked when they would be going to the party, Rumi looked at her phone and told him two hours. They stared at each other before bolting towards the bathroom.
Izuku and Rumi arrived at the I-Island tower. Izuku had his hair tied and his face clean shaved. He was wearing a green dress shirt with crimson lining at the seams a black tie hanging from his neck, a black vest with the custom "Green Team" pin on his chest pocket, and dark skinny jeans with his signature red shoes. Rumi had her hair tied as well but unlike Izuku she had a carrot flower pinned into her hair. She was wearing a white and blue dress that stopped just above her ankles, and a black leather jacket that stopped below her breast, she was wearing her hero costumes boots and leggings because she forgot her high heel boots. Izuku and Rumi walked into the main hall being greeted by all manner of people, some were heroes while others were top officials in the public safety commission. Izuku couldn't help but feel out of place; he could blend in with a lot of crowds but nevertheless still felt out of place in this party for heroes. Rumi was not a fan of parties, at least the ones with a fancy dress code; the only reason she didn't decline was because the hero public safety commission ordered her to be here. The duo was eventually approached by the dragon hero Ryuko. Ryuko greeted Rumi with a smile before turning to Izuku, "Who are you?" Ryuko asked.
"Izuku Midoriya, date of Rumi." Izuku said.
Ryuko looked at Rumi, "I'm surprised that you'd ever bring a date to a party. I thought you hated guys." she said.
Rumi looked a little offended and went on a rant about her not caring for stuff like this. Izuku maneuvered away from the bickering women and walked around. Izuku wandered out of the main party hall and began walking through the many corridors of I-Island Tower. Izuku admired the architecture of the wide open space he found himself in and cursed himself for not bringing his notebook. Izuku was looking out the window admiring the cities built on I-Island when a feeling he hadn't felt in years occurred. The Rider was banging on the door keeping him tamed. Izuku was confused and panicking he thought he had a handle on it but was proved wrong as he fought against the Rider, "Why are yo trying to get out!?" Izuku yelled.
Izuku's head snapped in a specific direction as if grabbed, a large window overlooking the last moments of the sunset. Izuku didn't know what he was being shown until his eyes burst from the heat coming from his body, allowing Izuku to see what the Rider saw. Izuku was shocked, he knew what he was seeing should've been impossible considering I-Islands security but there over the horizon was an army of invisible to normal eyes helicopters. Izuku was confused as hell but couldn't deal with that as at the moment he was doing his best not to let the Rider out. He couldn't let it out in a place with the top ten. He began stumbling in the hall, smoke puffing out of his head and hands, his face contorting into the Riders before skin wrapped itself around the newly exposed bits of skull he leaned on a wall with his hand before pressing on, leaving a handprint melted into the wall. He eventually managed to get into a side door and entered the room shutting the door behind him before collapsing to the floor in a smokey mess.
Rumi was still bickering with Ryukyu when she finally noticed Izuku was gone she looked around the room only seeing the other heroes in attendance. Ryukyu also seemed to notice the absence of him and asked Rumi if she lost her date she huffed in confirmation and walked away to find him. Toshinori Yagi formerly known as All Might was standing next to Enji Todoroki AKA Endeavor. They were discussing the way Enji shouldn't try to emulate Toshinori and find his own way to be the number one hero. Suddenly the alarms went off and the large screen went dark and showed "EMERGENCY LOCKDOWN IN EFFECT" , the doors to the room slammed shut locking all the heroes in, Mirko attempted to kick the door open but only made a dink sound. Mirko was very confused; she thought the doors were only steel but they must've been made with something stronger if she only made a dink sound. Endeavor ran to the doors and attempted to use his quirk to cut it open but he couldn't activate his quirk. Confused, he tried again but it still didn't work. The screen cut to black again, then an image appeared of a man wearing a black mask with purple streaks running through it, his white hair was pulled back, his dull gray eyes seemed to be scanning the room before he spoke. "Hello heroes, my name is Nine." the heroes were listening intently but ready to fight. "And this is the beginning of my new world order." Nine finished shutting the feed off.
Chapter Ten
Darkness and a chain, that's all Izuku knew in that moment. Izuku was trapped in his mind playing tug-a-war with the Rider on who would be in control. The Rider was winning so far. Izuku remembered when these fights would happen when the Rider first appeared. Izuku believed these were over when they made that compromise; he was wrong. Hawks was pacing back and forth; his wings seemed to be shedding feathers at each step. He couldn't stop thinking about what would happen to everyone. Endeavor was just staring into space, his mind clearly not in the room with everyone else. Ryuko was attempting to calm the other guests with Crust, Wash and Kamui Woods. Best Jeanist was talking to Edgeshot discussing plans on how to escape. Yoroi Musha was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed, thinking deeply about the situation. Toshinori was standing next to a table thinking the same thing as everyone here. He glanced around the room, seeing the fear on the faces of the guests. His eyes eventually landed on Mirko who was pacing similarly to Hawks only she had a far more desperate face. Rumi was going through thousands of scenarios in her mind, Izuku was missing most likely out in the halls with whatever force was out there, she didn't know. Nine hadn't come back on the screen for nearly an hour so she assumed Nine wasn't going to for a while. David Shield was in thinking mode, he created the security for this place and couldn't think of any way they could have hacked it. Then a thought came to his head, one that terrified him; someone in the tower helped them get in. Melissa Shield was sitting next to her father, she was hugging her knees hoping everyone on the Island was okay.
Nine was standing in the security room overlooking the island. He heard the door open and looked at it. Chimera, one of his inner circle, had walked in after 'cleaning a mess' "How's everything proceeding?" Nine asked.
"Pretty easy, compared to our other jobs at least, this was a good hit." Chimera said. Nine stayed quiet, continuing to watch the Island, glancing at the helicopters flying over sectors.
"It wouldn't have been this easy without the old bastard." Mummy said.
"You have a point." Chimera said, "though it was pretty funny seeing his face after I began tearing him apart." Chimera chuckled fondly at the memory while Mummy just looked at him. The door opened again revealing Slice. "All the heroes and party goers are trapped in that room. We searched the whole building. Those drones made it pretty easy. We only left the side rooms since they were all locked anyway." she said. Nine stayed quiet but nodded.
"Well that's good." Chimera said, while nodding his head. Mummy was sitting at the security desk looking at the heroes and party goers. "What are we gonna do with them Nine?" Mummy asked. The others looked toward Nine waiting for an answer from their leader. Nine looked over his shoulder, "Once we're done gathering all the scientists, materials and any machines we can use, we'll sink this place to the bottom of the Pacific." he said.
Izuku was losing; he knew this but he still tried. The Rider eventually took the chain out of Izuku's hand. He tried to grab the chan but multiple chains came from the dark, pulling him deeper into the abyss. In a desperate plea, Izuku begged, "Listen don't hurt the heroes no matter what you see PLEASE!" Izuku was pulled deeper into the black until his pleas could no longer be heard. The Rider looked after it's host contemplating the plea. The smoke that had incased Izuku's unconscious body slowly receded as the smoke was disturbed by movement. The Rider emerged from the smoke standing still for a moment, thinking. The Rider thought about Izuku, he had saved the Rider, although unintentionally It had been sealed alone for centuries before Izuku found that rock. The Rider thought more It had always been taking advantage of Izuku, never really thinking about him more than a vessel but as of the last year it began to think. The Rider knew it's duty to reap vengeance upon the souls of the guilty, but in doing so it hurt Izuku. It could always feel that desperation and fear of it from Izuku, even if he didn't show it. The Riders thoughts drifted to Izuku words when being dragged to the void 'Don't hurt the heroes no matter what you see PLEASE!' the Rider barely did things for Izuku, the most recent being the time when Izuku's car was stolen. The Rider thought about this and made a decision. A guard patrol walked through the halls looking for anyone in the halls. A loud bang echoes through the halls and makes a few of them jump. They look around and at each other before nodding and going to investigate. 'BANG' the guards got closer to the sound, finding the origin to be a security door that led to a side room. Thinking someone was trapped inside, they began to walk off, until a crackling was heard. They turned to the door seeing it began to glow orange with heat. "Shit! Is Endeavor trapped in there?" one of the guards said.
"Impossible even if he was in there his quirk would have been detected, the entire tower has quirk detectors it's probably just some guy with a blowtorch." another said.
The door began to spark, partly melting at the hinges. "Get ready!" one of them said aiming their weapon. The others followed suit, a larger one hoisting an M60 towards the door. Sparks spewed from a certain spot from the door before they moved in a circular motion as if someone took a blowtorch and was cutting their way out. Eventually the sparks made a full circular motion and ceased. Eerie silence filled the corridor. The silence was broken by a muffled noise coming from the door, the circular shape was thrown out of the door with so much force it went through two guys and embedded itself three feet into the wall. A figure came through the hole laughing "HAHAHA oh man I can't believe It let me drive." Izuku said while transformed. The Rider had decided to let Izuku be in control on the terms Izuku would be kill all of the terrorists in fairly brutal ways, and by the sounds of the two guys that were only torsos with a head and stumped arms were screaming in pain slowly dying. He was upholding that deal. The big man snapped out of his shock and began firing at Izuku, the bullets tearing through his vest before sealing up with a glow of orange. Izuku's head snapped towards the guy shooting him. The guy must have been seeing things cause he could've sworn he saw the skeleton's grim smile grow wider. Izuku turned on his heels toward the final part of this patrol, and skipped towards him. The man kept firing, unloading the whole mag into Izuku before he finally ran out. Izuku stood in front of the man, grabbed the barrel of the M60 and tore it out of the guy's grip, actually taking half the guy's right hand with it. He screamed as he fell to the floor clutching what was left of his hand. Izuku held the M60 with a tender care as a stream of flame engulfed the weapon transforming the gun into something more his taste. The barrel was now wrapped with a chain, the chain of bullets feeding the gun expanded and wrapped around Izuku as if a makeshift bandolier, the gun glowed a molten orange and red veins spread throughout. Izuku looked at the gun and nodded before putting his attention back on this poor bastard in front of him. "Wow your luck is shit." Izuku said, crouching down closer to the man "Hand ripped off trying to hold a gun being taken by a flaming skeleton with super strength, I think I've heard that one." The man looked at Izuku in fear as Izuku continued "But I can't seem to remember how it ended- Oh wait now I remember!" chains came out of the ground and wrapped around the man, securing him to the floor. Izuku stood over him and aimed the M60 between his legs "HE WAS CUT IN HALF BY HIS OWN GUN!" Izuku laughed as he pulled the trigger, firing into the floor and slowly aiming up. The magma heated bullets eventually began to rip into the man's body he wailed, cried and begged but it didn't stop he felt the molten metal tear through his organs, every single strand that bounced into his muscle. Eventually his body was split up to his chest and his screaming finally ceased, when it stopped it was replaced by a gurgling noise. The sound being molten metal somehow leaking from the dead man's mouth burning his face. Izuku looked at his handiwork and sighed 'I can't believe I'm enjoying this.' he thought. Izuku rested his new weapon on his shoulder and looked towards a corner spotting a camera.
Slice, Chimera and Mummy watched the carnage unfold over the cameras. Nine stopped watching after a guard got tossed out a window with a chain wrapped around her neck, the end secured by a spike.
"WHERE THE HELL DID THIS GUY COME FROM!" Chimera yelled, looking at Slice.
"W-we checked everything, the drones would've detected any heat signatures in the side rooms." Slice said.
"Well obviously they don't work BECAUSE THAT GUY IS LITERALLY A WALKING INFERNO HOW THE HELL DO THEY MISS THAT!"
"He brings up a good point, Slice." Nine said in a calm voice. "How could they have missed this man?" he looks over at Slice awaiting an answer.
"I-i don't know, I know the drones were able to detect everybody in the main hall and a few stragglers that we got rid of. I don't know how this guy could have gotten past it." Slice said, avoiding the gazes of her fellow leaders. Nine thought for a moment contemplating what she said but realized that it didn't matter they had a problem and problems need to be resolved.
"It doesn't matter." Nine said, causing the other members to look at him "We don't know how he evaded the heat seekers but right now I don't care, Slice." Slice breathed in relief "However" and suddenly she was tense again "This is a problem, one that should be easily fixed so take the drones and kill him." Nine said firmly. Slice stayed quiet, pressed a button on her gauntlet and two drones appeared from slits in the walls. Slice looks back at Nine and nods before walking out with the two drones following her.
Izuku walked down a damaged hallway and passed a few bodies that he had thrown while fighting a large group all of them having a deep cauterized gash from his chain that threw them. He came to an open space with a domed window in the middle. Izuku walked closer to it and peered down and saw the main hall everyone was still there and they seemed antsy well the heroes did the civilians were mostly sitting around. He scanned the room before he eventually landed on Endeavor 'Huh, he's got a high sin on his shoulders, but there's extreme regret. He's in the beginning stages of repenting' Izuku thought. He continued to scan the room before his eyes landed on Rumi 'Dammit I knew she'd feel scared for my safety but that's just a bit much.'he thought seeing the amount of fear and anxiety welling up in her. Izuku was so lost in scanning the room he didn't notice the several drones floating towards him. Izuku finally noticed them when a concussive force threw him into the dome cracking it "Uh oh" Izuku muttered.
Toshinori was leaning on the stage, his thoughts wandered to his successor and what would happen if he wasn't to leave alive. She needed a teacher and he had promised to focus solely on her progress with One For All. Toshinori was pulled from his thoughts when a cracking sound echoed through the room, everyone must've heard it as well since they all looked around from what they were doing. Eventually the crack had grown to a constant noise until finally it stopped, replaced by the sound of shattering glass and a deep guttural yell. Everyone snapped their attention to the source of the yell, a blur falling from the glass dome onto the stage. The heroes got in front of the civilians ready to fight for the people. Izuku stood up with his M60 hanging from his side as he dusted himself off, and looked towards the people staring at him. Rumi's mouth hung open at the recognition of the person in front of them and if the jaws dropping around her signaled anything most of the people here did too. Awkward silence filled the room, everyone just staring at Izuku and he was staring back. "Hi" he said, finally breaking the silence.
"HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET HERE!" Rumi yelled.
"Uhhhh, yeah no." A chain erupted from his back and pierced the ceiling, it reeled Izuku up and flung him back through the hole.
Everyone was just flabbergasted by the Ghost Rider, a villain just dropped through the window said 'Hi' and left. "What the Fuck?" Rumi/Hawks said in unison. Izuku launched through the hole and slammed right into a drone, he grabbed onto it and hung on as it was trying to shake him off. The other drones began firing at Izuku; the bullets weren't affecting him but they were tearing the drone apart. Izuku eventually let go of the drone and landed on the floor. Izuku spun around and wielded his M60 Rambo style, firing at the drones the molten slag shot from the barrel turning the robots to molten metal heaps on the floor. Izuku lowered his weapon and looked around, he had sensed someone in the hall but couldn't see them. Slice jumped from a ledge above Izuku and impaled him with her steel combat claws, but found they melted entering his vest, "Shit." Slice said. Izuku looked over his shoulder, grabbed Slices' arm and slammed her into the floor with enough force to break her ribs. Slice screamed, the screams reaching the ears of the heroes and civilians in the party hall. The heroes were extremely frustrated, a person was being murdered and they were powerless to stop it. Izuku looked down at the assailant, Slice attempted to kill him by shooting all the needles she had for hair at him. The needles mostly burned up but a few were thick enough to stay longer. Izuku looked at Slice with what could be a 'Really?' face if she could read a skeletons' look. Izuku stomped on her already broken ribs and sank in. Slice wasn't even able to scream, just a blood filled gurgle. He wasn't done there though. Izuku crouched down and grabbed the sides of her head firmly, made her look at him-
-and pulled. Izuku pulled up slow enough to hear the tendons and muscles tear, before a sickening crack echoed through the halls. He held up the decapitated head and turned toward a camera waving at it while putting his fingers in the head's mouth making it smile.
Mummy was green but he held it in, Chimera was angry but couldn't help but admire the way Slice was killed. Nine well he was more difficult to pin down, but he was angry. The Ghost Rider had just killed one of his inner circle and showed off her corpse in a taunting manner, but he got the message loud and clear I'm Coming for all of you.
Chapter Eleven
Anger, yes anger, that's what Chimera was experiencing right now. Slice's head was torn off and presented to the camera as if it was a trophy, Mummy was doing his best not to hurl and Nine, well Nine was very good at hiding the anger he felt. "I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL THAT SON OF A BITCH!" Chimera yelled.
Nine stood there, eyes not leaving the screen, "You may have that chance, Chimera."
Chimera didn't grace his ears with a vocal answer instead the sound of heavy footsteps running, and the door opening and closing were heard. Nine looks away from the camera view and looks back out the window. He stood in thought about this problem that was proving to have a more difficult answer.
Izuku was walking through the halls again trying to find his way to the elevators so he could have a straight shot to the security room near the top. Izuku passed by a few corpses that he didn't kill, obviously the stragglers who were not locked into rooms. Izuku felt the anger from the Rider, these people would have vengeance. Eventually he found the elevators and pried the doors open, Izuku peered in and saw the empty shaft missing a certain piece. Izuku sighs and secures the M60 on his back before jumping into the elevator shaft and grabbing the wires for the counterweight, Izuku takes his fingers to the wires and ignites them, severing it. Izuku shoots up, the speed nearly making him slip, the fire around his skull engulfing his body as he speeds up. Eventually the wire comes to the top and causes Izuku to smash into the ceiling of the shaft. He grabs the metal and digs his fingers into it; he hangs there for a moment just looking down before he looks at the walls around and sees an elevator door. Izuku brings his other hand up and starts swinging his legs before using the momentum and flinging himself towards the door and busts through it, and finds himself in front of several drones ready to shred him to pieces with their mounted turrets. Izuku looked around at the drones with as blank of a stare you could get from a skeleton, "Shit." Izuku said, before being blasted back with all the drones firing at him.
Izuku was sent back into the elevator shaft, colliding with the wall and causing the M60 to be crushed. Izuku laid in the wall pinned by the constant gunfire riddling through him, before gravity, being the cruel bitch she could be, began dragging him down. Izuku was in freefall for a good few seconds before a chain erupted from his wrist and anchored itself into the wall; the momentum of his fall caused him to swing into another wall and crash straight through it. Izuku lays on his back where he landed just staring at the ceiling, "Where'd I go wrong Universe?" Izuku asks "I mean, come on an army of those drones just waiting for me and the thirty flights lost in progress?" Izuku stands up and attempts to grab the M60 when realization strikes, "And the loss of a weapon I really enjoyed... fuck you Universe." Izuku moves through the office area back towards the elevator when he's hit by a large piece of stone sending him through the cubicles and eventually the wall, "I'M GONNA ENJOY RIPPING YOU APART!"
Meanwhile back with the heroes. Toshinori, Rumi, and Endeavor are all standing near the stage looking at the skylight the Ghost Rider came through earlier, "I don't understand." Rumi says, "How did he even get here?"
"It's possible he came with the guests." Endeavor says.
"Yes, but how?" Toshinori says, "I feel as though we would have been alerted of a skeleton in the party."
Rumi thinks about this, she sees how they should've noticed him as he's not exactly subtle in his appearance, but she realized this line of thought was pointless. "How he got here doesn't matter." Rumi said, causing the other two heroes to look at her, "What matters is that he gave us a way out of this room." Rumi put a hand on her hip and pointed up with her other hand. Endeavor and Toshinori follow her finger and see the hole in the skylight and get what she's saying. Before they say something about it, though an explosion occurs and causes the tower to suddenly shake, the civilians yell and panic while the heroes get on guard. Rumi looks around at the people panicking and her mind flashes to Izuku, 'Izuku I hope you're alright.'
Izuku crashes through a wall after being flung through several office cubicles and a wall, he lands in a nice bed of rubble and rebar. "What the fuck hit me?" Izuku asks.
"I'M GONNA ENJOY RIPPING YOU APART!" a voice yells from the hole he came from. Izuku looks back at the hole and watches as a mutant quirk wielder walks through, "You." the man growls, while Izuku points at himself still on his back, "You think you can just kill one of us AND GET AWAY WITH IT!" the man yells.
"Uhhh, kinda?" Izuku says, "I mean I've taken out a lot of sinners/villains so I don't know why'd that be any different."
"YOU BASTARD!" Chimera yells, "SLICE MAY HAVE BEEN THE WEAKEST OF US BUT SHE WAS STILL ONE OF US, SO I'M GONNA KILL YOU AND USE YOUR SKULL AS AN ASHTRAY." Chimera runs at the prone Izuku and jumps ready to crush him.
"Oh shit." Izuku says before Chimera lands on Izuku. Chimera and Izuku go through the floor and land in a R&D room. Chimera doesn't give Izuku enough time to react and stomps on his skull with so much force it cracks. Chimera attempts to do it again but Izuku grabs his foot, stopping it in the air. Izuku tosses Chimera off him and flips onto his feet ready for a fight. Chimera stomps on the floor and roars at Izuku, Izuku gets a bit too into it and roars back. The two rush at each other, Chimera in a beastial rush, Izuku with a sprint. The two collide and Chimera is forced back with Izuku holding his throat, the two crash through another wall. Chimera sends his fist into Izukus chest and pushes him back. Izuku digs his heels into the floor and skids to a stop. Izuku looks at the area they crashed in and compares it to a boss room in video games with how large the area was. Chimera struck out with his arm and hit Izuku's jaw sending him into a tank filled with a light blue liquid, the liquid spilled all over him and spread through the room. Izuku stood up and wiped some of the 'blue crud', as he deemed it, off his vest. "You've caused my vest to be ruined and be covered in blue crud." Izuku says as he holds out his hands as if holding a gun, when suddenly fire erupts into the air circling around his hands and a lever action rifle appears in his hands. "Prepare to die." Izuku fires the rifle but instead of a molten slag bullet, a large beam with the flaming visage of a skull screeches towards Chimera, he roars in defiance while an energy beam fires out of his mouth in an attempt to stop the flaming death coming for him.
It didn't work. The fire beam goes through Chimera's laser beam, collides with him, and absolutely obliterates him and the surrounding area. The explosion rocks the tower and takes a chunk out of it. Izuku stands there, watching the embers fly with the wind imitating snow. Izuku feels a presence and looks to his right and the form of the Rider is standing there with its arms crossed and giving the skeletal equivalent of the 'are you serious face' Izuku sighs as he makes the lever action rifle disappear in embers, "Yeah, yeah, I know the Hellshot is overkill no matter what situation."
The Rider nods and dissipates from Izuku's vision, Izuku looks back towards the hole he tore in the tower with Hellshot and just watched. The night sky lit up by the blood red lights of the emergency system, "I really wish I had my notebook with me."
Izuku turns back towards the hole they came through and walks through the rubble randomly kicking a piece of rubble into a busted computer. Izuku makes his way through the destruction until he sees the hole in the ceiling Chimera brought him down from. Izuku moves directly under it, and chains erupt from his shoulders and anchor themselves next to the hole. Izuku is launched through the hole by the chains as they retreat back into his body. He lands and begins walking towards the hole he was first launched into, through the destroyed office, and back to the elevator. Izuku looks up into the shaft and sighs, "Ok, the last time I was in this elevator the universe got pissed at me so lets try not to repeat that." Izuku says to himself.
After that Izuku leaps to the other side of the elevator shaft and burns his fingers into the wall. Izuku begins climbing up, "PLEASE STOP!"
Izuku freezes dead in his climb. That was a child's plea, he looked around the elevator frantically looking for where that voice could have come from but sees nothing. Izuku is a bit shaken up from that cry, he's only heard that kind of tone a few times in his life and he can count with his fingers on one hand, how many times he's heard it from a child. Izuku thinks back to the past few months, every so often he'd hear what sounded like crying. At first Izuku thought he was hearing things, but that changed after the tenth time he heard it. Izuku realized something was happening and a little girl was in pain, but unfortunately he couldn't do anything right now he still had to kill the leader and anyone who got in his way.
Nine expects his men to follow orders, and for those issued to be followed through. Usually he never has problems as his men know their places. Of course that's not to say things don't go wrong, he knows that and will only 'correct' that behavior if it happens more than once. Nine was very good at keeping his emotions in check, but even he has limits. Nine currently was doing his absolute best to keep a neutral face in front of Mummy, the last of his inner circle. Nine had watched his two most loyal followers be murdered by the same person who has been massacaring the mercenaries he hired to keep the tower under there control. Nine looked at Mummy who wasn't even trying to hide the terror in his face, Nine couldn't blame him he had just watched Chimera get killed with a lever action from hell, "Nine." Mummy says, "W-what do we do?"
Nine looks back at the corridor leading to the vault holding the support items they had planned to steal, "Adjust the plan accordingly." Nine says as his eyes glow red.
To any poor soul that actually read through this all I can say is I'm sorry for any brain rot this may have induced.
