With no hesitation, Katsuki pushed Izuku and Luna out of the way, allowing the black and red tendrils to stab Katsuki into his right arm, chest, and right leg. That made Luna's eyes widened in horror.
"No...Bakugo…" Luna muttered in a low voice.
Katsuki coughed out blood from his mouth.
"Stop trying to win this…by yourselves." Katsuki spoke weakly.
When the smoke cleared, Tomura's body looked completely charred.
"Let me go." Tomura spoke as he struggled to resist All For One's control.
The black and red tendrils withdrew out of Katsuki's chest, sending him plunging toward the ground.
"Kacchan/Bakugo!" Izuku and Luna screamed.
Before Izuku and Luna could reach and catch Katsuki, Aisha quickly caught her hot-blooded classmate with her psychokinesis in the air while still carrying Shoto and the injured Endeavor with her Quirk. Izuku and Luna looked down to watch Aisha soaring down to the ground as they were relieved that Aisha was able to catch Katsuki in a nick of time.
"It's my body." Tomura said.
Izuku and Luna looked back up at Tomura when the black and red tendrils retreated back into his fingers.
"You've fought and fought today, spilling so much blood for no reason." All For One spoke.
Izuku and Luna glared intensely at Tomura with wide, unblinking eyes.
"No reason?" Izuku muttered.
"This bastard." Luna murmured.
The magnitude of anger began to overwhelm Luna and Izuku's state of mind. Izuku's blackwhip started to form all around his body while bright pink triquetra tattoo-like marks materialized all over Luna's face, arms, and legs.
"This last boy who interfered now suffers." All for One continued. "Because he mistook foolishness for bravery."
Then suddenly, Izuku and Luna snapped with enraged glares. Izuku quickly heard a ringing sound in his head just before All for One launched his black and red tendrils at the two students. Izuku and Luna charged One for All and Divine Trinity into full maximum power, allowing them to launch forward while destroying and crunching on the incoming tendrils in complete rage. Even Tomura looked at Luna and Izuku with a shocked face.
"You take that back!" Izuku and Luna demanded.
Suddenly, a crack opened in the middle of Tomura's shocked face that revealed All For One's grinning face. As All For One took control of Tomura's body, he took an opportunistic chance to touch Izuku's face and Luna's neck that immediately caught the students off guard.
"Midoriya!" Shoto cried out in fear.
"Luna!" Aisha hollered.
"You two are finally mine." All For One declared.
Izuku and Luna gasped in terror.
All For One began to steal One For All and Divine Trinity right out of Izuku and Luna's body.
"Come to me. One For All and Divine Trinity..." All For One said.
Tomura, Izuku, and Luna's eyes widened unexpectedly and everything went black.
At that very moment, Luna opened her eyes and looked around to find herself in a white empty void.
"Huh? Where am I?" Luna wondered to herself. "I can't be inside Divine Trinity. Could this be the world within One For All? If that's so, then where's Midoriya?"
Luna's ears picked up the sound of childlike crying. She looked to locate the source of that crying and found a five year old boy sobbing on his knees close to his chest. He has dark black hair and dried patches of skin around his gray eyes. He wore a black shirt, blue jeans, and black sandals. Luna wasted no time running up to him.
"Hey, what's the matter? Are you all right?" Luna asked as she stood in front of the crying boy.
The crying boy lifted his head and looked up at Luna. His face sparked a surprising gasp out of Luna's mouth.
He...he looks just like Nico. Luna thought. Is this what Shigaraki looks like as a child?
"Who-who are you?" The boy asked.
"I'm Luna. Luna Yagi." Luna replied. "And what's your name?"
"T-Tenko." The boy answered.
"Well, hello, Tenko." Luna said as she kneeled in front of Tenko. "It's nice to meet you. Why are you crying?"
Tenko was about to respond, but he closed his mouth and looked away in guilt as his eyes kept releasing tears. Luna noticed and placed a comforting hand on Tenko's cheek, making him look back at her with a soft face.
"It's alright. You don't have to tell me." Luna said. She wrapped her arms around Tenko and squeezed him in a gentle hug. "I'm not going anywhere. I'll protect you no matter what."
Tenko's eyes quivered. More tears kept flooding from his eyes.
"Thank...you... Luna..." Tenko said.
A sudden sound of approaching footsteps caught Luna and Tenko's attention. They turned their heads to the source of the footsteps that made Luna's eyes widened in horror.
"Shigaraki? No. It's just not him..." Luna said with a wide-eyed gasp.
Tomura slowly walked toward Luna and Tenko while trying to reject All For One from taking control of his body, leaving them in a half-fused state.
Luna immediately stood protectively in front of Tenko as Tomura and All For One stood towards them before their eyes.
"What are you doing now?" Tomura growled.
"To show our other guest, and an interesting one of that." All For One smiled. He pointed his finger directly at Luna. "This child right here is someone you know very well, but not her true identity. Luna Yagi, daughter of Tarot Chariot and All Might."
That earned a stunned look on Tomura's face.
"What?!" Tomura exclaimed in shock as he glanced at Luna.
"That's right. This girl is indeed All Might and Tarot Chariot's secret child that they kept hidden from the world. Both heroes and villains alike." All For One continued. "No doubt her Quirk is an inheritance from her mother, but I never would've expected that power might rival One For All itself or even mine. What an extraordinary power indeed."
Tomura kept staring silently at Luna until his face went composed.
"I'll admit...I did not see this coming." Tomura muttered. He extended his left arm forward. "But still, it's not too late. Luna...you can still...join me..."
"Stop it, Shigaraki." Luna said with a firm expression on his face. "Let me make myself clear because I don't know how many times we're going to have this same old persuasion. So, I'm going to say this one last time. I will not join you nor All For One no matter what you say. I choose to become a hero to help people to strive for a better, brighter future. Not a sad, depressing world like you two."
"Well, there you have it, Tomura." All For One said. "It's the will of her heroic parents that already influenced her mind as it is."
Luna narrowed her eyes while Tenko cowered behind her in fear.
Then, a soft hand gently landed on Luna's head.
"You will take neither my daughter nor her power away."
Luna's eyes widened as she and Tenko looked up to see Tarot Chariot standing next to her. But Tarot Chariot isn't alone. Standing behind Tenko are Ariella and Carina.
"Well, well, well. What a delightful family reunion." All For One said with a smile. "But you're not stopping us from securing your precious daughter."
"You wanna bet? My daughter and Divine Trinity are not yours for the taking." Tarot Chariot said with a glare.
Tomura narrowed his eyes in irritation. Without hesitation, he began eroding the world inside Divine Trinity. Tarot Chariot, Carina, and Ariella held out their glowing hands at Oriana and created a protective shield of multicolored energy that strongly halted the erosion from reaching them.
Dammit. Tomura thought as he gritted his teeth. First, One For All. And now, Divine Trinity. There's no way they're gonna force me back that easily.
Suddenly, All For One raised his hand and attempted to steal Divine Trinity just as he slightly covered Tomura's face.
"You know, I was watching that child through Tomura. It's true she inherited an incredible Quirk from you, Chariot, but that doesn't mean she's in full control. She had already succumbed to her anger earlier. Just let her surrender and hand over that power!" All for One declared with a gleeful smile.
"You're wrong." Tarot Chariot stated. "You can't see what drives my daughter to keep going. But of course, you made your purpose to use people for your personal gain, so you could never understand. She's able to work as hard as she must for the sake of others that aren't able to fight nor defend themselves. That's why we will stay by her side as a family."
Behind the protective shield, Luna observed Tomura helplessly succumbing to All For One's control. She clenched her fists and put on an unwavering look on her face.
"Tenko." Luna spoke as Tenko looked up at her. "You may be part of Tomura, but I promise, no matter what it takes, I will save you. I will save you from all the suffering that All For One put you through."
Tenko's eyes lit up in surprise.
With All For One's smile faded from his face, Tarot Chariot, Carina, and Ariella united their strength of power within Luna, who closed her eyes while feeling the power of Divine Trinity at full power. When she opened her eyes, Luna lunged toward Tomura.
Then suddenly, an explosion of bright white light gleamed in the sky. Tomura, Luna, and Izuku began falling away from each other once they were repelled out of the mental world and re-emerged back into the real world.
Luna's eyes glanced back and forth at Tomura and Izuku.
Divine Trinity…I can feel it. It wasn't stolen? Luna thought. But…but how…?
Since the Quirk transplant wasn't complete, you couldn't find enough power to take One For All and Divine Trinity. All For One thought as he had taken control of Tomura's consciousness. Do stay awake, Tomura. Your new body must be completed. Withdraw for now and regain strength.
Please, Shigaraki. Luna pleaded. She began to lose every inch of consciousness. Just…give it up.
Luna's view went black as she began to descend from the sky.
Meanwhile, Tarot Chariot, Carina, and Ariella stared at the magic card with stunned faces inside the cloaking airship. Tarot Chariot's magic card displayed a news broadcast on Gigantomachia rampaging through the cities all the way to Jaku City.
"Currently, the villain is continuing north through Sairo City with no sign of slowing down!" The female news reporter proclaimed. "This is catastrophic. The city's being demolished!"
"Ariella, Carina, listen. I know I'm asking a lot, but I need your help. Together, we can evacuate and rescue residents, and take the villain down from creating collateral damage." Tarot Chariot said. "Please. Lend me your aid."
Carina and Ariella exchanged silent faces. After a quick moment of thinking, they looked back at Tarot Chariot with confirmed nods.
Elsewhere, Opalite observed the battlefield through a pair of binoculars. She was standing on one of the destroyed buildings along with Zircon and Nightshade.
"Oh, there she is." Opalite informed. "I've located the target. She's down there with Endeavor." She looked at Zircon over her shoulder. "So, how exactly are we gonna separate her from the others?"
"Leave that to me." Zircon said with a sinister grin. "You two stay here and be on the lookout. I'm ready to destroy Amazonite's daughter out of existence."
Zircon sank into his shadow under his feet and hurriedly slithered his way to the battlefield.
Nightshade silently stared at the high-tech flash drive in her hand. Ever since Rhina handed it to her back at the Naboo Mansion, she couldn't stop shaking the curiosity to take a peek of the secret information nor ignored it and followed her father's mansion. She closed her eyes and held the flash drive close to her chest. When she opened her eyes, her face went bold and she pressed a white button to turn on the flash drive.
Enjoy and review.
