A/N:1 Well folks Here is story 6. Now I know some of you are reading this and saying Jaredtar! You insane bastard! You're already writing 5 other full length stories and your starting a sixth?
The answer to that question/declaration is yes. For reasons even I don't understand (I suspect untreated ADD) I keep adding full length stories.
That beings said on one of my other stories a concern was raised over my turn around time with that particular story. But it got me thinking and I decided to address it here. I will most likely copy this part of the note to my other stories as they update.
In any case, I understand that my turnaround time can be slow, but for me quality takes time and I don't half ass my stories. When you read one of my stores, you can be sure that I put my whole ass into it. (even the stuff I wasn't particularly happy with.) As a result my output is lower then some of my contemporaries.
The other part of it is that without putting a fine point on it. This is a hobby for me. I write when I can, but I work for a living and leaving that aside I have other hobbies. I will do my best to release my stuff within a reasonable time frame but…
Now enough of the depressing stuff. This story is the result of my muse being particularly stubborn. I would ignore her but you try ignoring a tan skinned dark elf shortstack. lol
Now onto the legal stuff My Hero Academia ,the Disgaea series and La Pucelle Tactics and La Pucelle Ragnarok are the property of their respective owners. Please support the official releases. Because Piracy is a sin. And you know what Ibara thinks of that.
Musutafu Overpass, Musutafu, Japan April 09, 2219, 16:15
As Izuku walked home from school, he muttered angrily about his latest run in with Katsuki Bakugo, "Lousy Katsuki, you can't just tell people to kill themselves, what would he do if I went ahead and did it. Just left a suicide note detailing why I did it and just did it. Fortunately for Izuku it was at that moment that his better nature caught up with him. "But what about mom? What would killing myself do to her?" This sent Izuku down a mental spiral that left him standing still. He was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't hear a manhole cover lift and slide to the side, he didn't hear the sound of moving fluid, He didn't hear a dark chuckle, at least not until it was too late.
Pocket Netherworld Ship: The Mighty Hanako, Nearly an hour ago
As Hanako appeared on her ship, she took a deep sigh. She hated to have to play the hardass with her younger self the way she just had, but a conversation she had had a few years back with that Nagi chick that worked for Val, had made it very apparent that certain things could not be changed. Certain things always had to happen. Her younger self had to see the future version of herself and be influenced by how powerful and cool she looked. The phantom of herself that she left behind would make sure that her younger self would keep up with her summoner training and make sure that she survived the battle with the fake Zenon. She would go on to seek out Etna who would help her regain her demonic side.
She would become a Demon Lord that even Overlords feared, and she couldn't deny that it had all been cool as hell. Still seeing herself, seeing how all the people who were ostensibly her victims standing up for her younger self, had warmed her heart. She was shaken out of her thoughts when a Prinny, a Prinny King based on the color of its fur, hobbled up to her and with a voice that told Hanako that it had been a female in its past life said "Mistress Hanako! Mistress Hanako! Dood There's a visitor waiting for you in the lobby! "
Hanako put all of her attention on her subordinate. "What kind of visitor? What did they look like?"
The Prinny looked about as thoughtful as its species was capable of for a second before it replied, "Dood, she had blonde hair, blue eyes and white feathery wings. She was wearing a white robe with a blue ribbon."
Hanako nodded. That description led her to believe that their visitor was an angel of some sort. It also sounded very familiar. "Did she give a name?"
The Prinny shook its body, "No Mistress Hanako Dood we asked, but she refused." Its tone had turned apologetic.
Hanako considered her options. Depending on her visitor's temperament, what she did next could have consequences. Hanako was confident in her power, but drawing the ire of Celestia wasn't something she really wanted to do right now. Turning to the Prinny she said "Good work, Inform our guests that I have returned and will meet them in thirty minutes. After that you may go to the kitchen and get yourself one sardine."
The Prinny started shaking in excitement, Excitement that soon entered its voice. "Yes Dood! Thank you Dood, I'll go right away." before it scuttled away to follow her order and get its reward.
Hanako smiled. If there was one thing her early adventures in Veldime and her years training under Etna had taught her was that treating your servants like shit might keep them in line for a while, but treating Prinnies with even a modicum of respect would keep them loyal. Occasionally there would be a Prinny that would mistake her kindness for weakness and they would try to attack her, but the other Prinnies would make sure that the offender was punished with the worst possible duties on the ship. Starting with the singularity generator and getting progressively darker from there.
Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, Hanako made her way towards her chambers and the mini fridge within. If she was going to have a meeting she wasn't going to have it on an empty stomach.
—-
Twenty-eight minutes later a refreshed Hanako made her way to the lobby to greet her guest. She had just put her game face on when a melodic voice filled the air. "Hanako! It's so nice to see you again!"
Hanako instantly found herself engulfed in a crushing hug. With a bit of effort she managed to say "It;s… nice… to… see… you… too… Flo-nne." After breaking out of the woman's grip she continued, "Not that this isn't a nice surprise but what brings you here?" Hanako liked the angel, she really did but only in small doses, she had gotten her fill of the angel's personality during her time with Etna. still she was better company than most angels Hanako had interacted with.
Flonne's smile faded and her tone changed to be more serious that Flonne remembered the girl ever using., "I'm here because Seraph Lamington has foreseen that there is a boy on a human world who will be important not only to his world but to both Celestia and the Netherworlds." The angel raised one of her hands and a ball displaying a teenage boy with green hair appeared, "This is Izuku Midoriya, He's a bit like your brother in that he has a strong sense of justice and a desire to help people, he just lacks the means to act upon it."
Hanako schooled her face to show disinterest, in a careful tone she asked "So why are you talking to me? Certainly Celestia could give this Izuku what he needs,"
Flonne nodded in agreement, "It's true we could train the boy. Under us he would become a great paragon, To use a term I have heard on a few human worlds, he would be the ultimate Lawful Good. However, it is the belief of the Seraph that such a thing is not what he or his world needs right now. They already have plenty of paragons. What they need is something a little darker, a little more chaotic... A chaotic good if you will pardon the term.
Hanako looked at the other woman, "So why me specifically? Why not Laharl or my brother? You already said he was a bit like Adell."
Flonne sighed, "As much as I love Laharl, He is a bit too chaotic, a bit too caught up in his own schemes to train the boy properly. As far as Adell, He would push the boy on the same path as the angels."
Hanako nodded, Having spent time with both men she had to admit the angel was right. Her thoughts were interrupted when the blonde woman continued. "As far as why you, the fact is that Celestia has been keeping an eye on you since you started training under Etna. It has been observed that most of the Overlords you have hunted were the kind to try to break the relative peace we currently enjoy.
Hanako nodded, while trying to hide the fact that she was being observed by Celestia disturbed her. "So assuming that I agree to train this Izuku kid, What's in it for me? What do I get out of the arrangement?"
Flonne smiled. "Seraph Lamington thought you might ask that, and besides Celestia's continued goodwill, Celestia will offer you a sizable financial reward for your service."
Flonne pulled out a piece of paper from her outfit and handed it to Hanako. When Hanako looked at what was written, her eyes nearly bulged out of her eye sockets. The number written on the piece of paper was more than she thought possible. With this amount of HL, she could afford to expand the ship a dozen times over and still have enough money to keep her and her crew living like kings for centuries to come.
Hanako nodded as she put the paper away into a pocket. "Okay, you have a deal. How soon do I need to get started?" Most times, she would have asked for the money up front, or at least half of it. But she had known Flonne since she had been a child, and Flonne didn't have a duplicitous bone in her body. If Flonne said this was a genuine offer from Lamington, then Hanako was willing to take that on faith.
What the angel said next startled her, "Now would be nice. If our reports are accurate, then he is due to die sometime in the next hour." The serious look on the angelic being's face told her that she was being serious.
Hanako's eyes bulged, "Damn it Flonne! What are the dimensional coordinates!?"
Flonne pulled out another piece of paper and recited "MHA110414"
In an instant Hanako turned around and roared to a Prinny, "Have the captain bring us up on MHA110414, and have the dimensional gate ready to go when we get there!"
The Prinny didn't stop to acknowledge the order, it just ran to obey it. Turning toward the angel Hanako, more than a little irritated, asked, "Is there anything else I need to know?"
Flonne, looking a little browbeaten, replied "The dimensional coordinates should bring you within a mile or so of the boy." Hanako nodded, as Dimensional gates were a bit imprecise when it came to exact locations. At best, it could get you within the general area.
Hanako reached out a hand, "Can I have that orb? I need something to show my Prinnies when we arrive, so that they can search for the boy."
Without any hesitation Flonne handed the orb to Hanako before saying "Good Luck."
Hanako looked at the blonde angel "Will you still be here when I get back?" When the other woman nodded, Hanako continued, "Good then you can help explain this to the boy and to his parents." before she ran off to make her preparations.
Back with Izuku
If Izuku were capable of thought beyond his grief at the fact that he was about to die he might thought about how being attacked and for all intents and purposes violated in a tunnel was just the cherry on top to the crap day he had been having since he had made it to school today and in a much broader sense the crap life he had lived since he was four years old. Having his best friend turn on him, having all his other friends turn him away, almost all of his teachers becoming indifferent to his existence at best and contemptuous at worst, Having his father all but abandon him and his mom for the last nine years and his mom as well meaning as he knew she was, be unable to support him on what until this moment had been his darkest day.
And now, now he was going to be the skin suit for some villain, and who knew what the villain was going to do while wearing his face. The part of Izuku's brain that could still think logically knew that, at best, his body would last three to five days before the signs of decay became obvious to even the most oblivious person in existence, but how much damage could be done in that amount of time, how many crimes would be connected to his face.
In many times and in many places this was the point where Izuku would be saved by All Might, This event would be a watershed moment for his life and would lead to a life he could only dream of. Unfortunately, in this time and place All Might had made a wrong turn in Mustafaru's labyrinthian sewer system and wouldn't arrive in time to save him. Instead, fate took a different turn.
As Izuku's vision started to fade, he heard a voice yell out, "RELEASE THE BOY DOOD!" before he heard a high-pitched whistle, and a roar of pain and suddenly he fell to the ground, the slime villain no longer feeding himself into Izuku. Izuku wasted no time in trying to vomit out the part of the villain that had already ended up inside him. Izuku was so focused on his task that he missed the other whistles and roars.
When Izuku could finally look up he saw his savior, He had expected one of the local heroes. What he found instead, was what looked like a black furred stuffed penguin with peg legs, a brown satchel around its midsection and a long white scarf around what Izuku guessed was its neck.
Izuku had little time to contemplate the situation too much as the thing that had saved him yelled in a voice that registered to Izuku as female "MOVE DOOD!"
Between the villain who had just tried to wear him as a bodysuit and the strange creature that had just saved him, Izuku knew with whom he was safer and, staggering a little as he stood, he ran for the stuffed penguin creature.
The villain, that was recovering, yelled, "Who the fuck are you?"
The creature gave Izuku a look before it turned its gaze on the villain and said, "Who I am isn't important. All you need to know is what I am, and that is Prinny Ranger: White!"
There was a pregnant pause as all three parties stood or oozed there. The villain was the first to break the silence, "What the fuck is this Super Sentai bullshit!"
Before the creature could respond a cloud of dust and debris was kicked up as seven distinct figures dropped to the ground causing the villain to curse as some of it got into his bulbous eyes.
Suddenly a voice came out of the dust cloud. It was young sounding, Izuku ventured that whoever was speaking wasn't that much older than he was. It was female and it sounded annoyed. "My Prinny Ranger has told you all you need to know. Now if you don't want me to spread your atoms across this damn planet, you will back down," the girl said.
As the dust cloud finally disappeared, Izuku could see who was speaking. She had two small black bat-like wings and pinkish-red hair that was done up on either side of her head, held in place by what looked like two balled hair ties.
Her eyes were almost the same color as her hair and had an almost disinterested look in them. On her hands and feet. were a set of gauntlets and boots that looked a bit like a honeypot. Black leggings ran up her legs stopping just before a pair of short shorts that were almost the same color as her hair and eyes. Completing the outfit was a bikini top that showed the world that she was, as some of the boys in Izuku's class would put it, a carpenter's dream. Standing on either side of her were six creatures that looked like the one that had saved him but with different colored scarves.
The Slime villain didn't seem impressed. "Your little toy got the drop on me, but now that I'm ready neither it nor your other toys are going to be able to do a thing. And after I am done with them I'm coming after you." The villain seemed in thought for a moment before it continued, "You know what? I'll leave the boy alone but I am taking your body in exchange. I always did prefer the female form, even if yours isn't a prime example of one."
Izuku was sure he felt the air get a bit colder as the girls face darkened, Inwardly Izuku cringed, he had seen what some girls in his class had done to the boys who had crossed the line the villain had just crossed and the results hadn't been pretty. Even Kacch- no Katsuki had never dared to go that far.
The girl took a deep nasal breath and closed her eyes muttering "yup" before she opened her eyes and said "White, Black, Magichange." in a flash of light the creature that had saved Izuku and the creature with the black scarf disappeared and the girls gauntlets were replaced by a set of boxing gloves that had a spike on the end that bore a large resemblance to the creatures. Before Izuku could further process that, the girl moved and in an instant stood in front of the villain, delivering a punch to its eye that sent it flying back and howling in pain.
The villain flailed around wildly, its body slamming into everything within its reach creating a deafening racket.
"White, Green Magichange" There was another flash of light and when Izuku looked at the girl again, she was now holding a pair of swords. Izuku barely had time to register that before she charged ahead and with a few swings of her sword, the mass of the villain was reduced to a mere fraction of what it had been earlier.
The part that remained apparently held its mouth as it started to beg "Pleases! Please! D-"
The girl , her face impassive, looked down at the small blob that currently made up the villain's body and asked, "Would you have offered the boy the same mercy you are asking me for? More to the point, what would you have done while wearing his body?"
The villain stayed silent for several seconds, his eye refusing to meet hers.
Frowning , the girl spoke, her tone cold and hard. "That's what I thought." the girl stretched her arms out in front of her and called out " Red, Blue, Magichange!" Instantly she was holding a pair of guns that looked like the gloves and sword from earlier looked like the penguin-esque beings. Pointing the guns at the villain, with her voice full of contempt she said "When you get to Hades, Tell Val that Hanako sent you, and then apologize on my behalf for making him deal with scum like you."
Izuku, who had been watching all of this with a combination of fear and awe, had barely been able to move or speak since he had been saved by the girl and her Prinny Rangers. But as the girl aimed her weapons at the villain that had just tried to kill him, he found his legs and his voice. Running in front of the girl and yelling "Wait! Please don't! Don't kill them!"
If the Girl was shocked by Izuku's actions she hid it well, gruffly she said "This thing just tried to kill you. Why are you protecting this scum?" she asked.
Izuku noticed that she had lowered her weapons slightly but that she kept looking past him. It was progress. "I know that, but what would killing them solve?" He wasn't sure what was letting him speak to the girl like this without stuttering, but he hoped it lasted long enough to finish the conversation.
The girl looked like she was in thought for a moment before she responded, frustration in her voice. "Simple, it eliminates them as a threat and it prevents them from coming back and trying again. I'm sure sparing your enemies sounds noble but more often than not you end up with more problems than it is worth."
As Much as he hated to admit it, the girl had a point. But he continued regardless. "It's pretty clear that I can't stop you. But please leave him to the Heroes and the police, let him be taken to jail." As he said that he looked the girl dead in the eyes. His own eyes were pleading for her to listen to him.
For a moment nobody moved before there was a flash of light and her guns were gone, while the two Prinnies stood beside her. "Fine, we will play it your way. But if this comes back to haunt you, remember it was your choice."
As Izuku nodded and took a breath he hadn't realized he had been holding, the girl raised her right hand and suddenly the area was filled with a deep cold that for an instant chilled Izuku to his core. When he turned around to see what had happened, he saw that his attacker was now encased in a block of ice.
When he turned to the girl to ask her what she had just done, she responded to his unasked question. "What? You didn't want me to kill him, and I wasn't about to let him go. So now he is frozen solid. One of your heroes should be along soon enough and they can deal with him. For now, we need to get moving.
Izuku nodded. While he was a bit concerned for the villain, he knew that the girl had just saved his life and she had just listened to him and not killed the attacker. So he decided not to push his luck and followed her.
A few minutes later All Might leapt out of the sewer ready to do battle, but found only the human ice cube. It would be awhile before he understood what had happened.
Several blocks later, Izuku came to a stop and started to demand shakily, "W-what's going on? W-who are you and why did you save me?" By the time Izuku stopped to take a breath he had recovered his voice from earlier.
The girl looked at him and calmly said "In no particular order, My name is Hanako, I am a Demon Lord. What is going on is that you, Izuku Midoriya have gained the attention of Celestia or as you might call it Heaven. And as for why I saved you, Simply put an angel friend of mine asked me to."
To say that Izuku was shocked would be an understatement. What the girl had just said sounded so outlandish that he could scarcely believe it. Yet his bullshit detector that had been honed by a decade of being the butt of nearly all of his peers' pranks and jokes could detect no falsehood. "Of course that might mean that she truly believes what she says. On the other hand, those creatures of hers lend a certain credence to her story. On the third hand, sentient quirks are a thing. Those 'Prinnies ' might be a manifestation of her quirk"
Any further thoughts Izuku had on the subject were interrupted when Hanako looked at him with a semi amused look on her face and said "In the future you may want to keep your internal thoughts internal."
Izuku felt embarrassed. "Crap, I said that out loud!"
Hanako nodded, "If you want I can easily prove my claims."
Izuku nodded slowly, not sure if finding out that she was telling the truth would be any better than confirming that she was either lying or crazy. " Okay, but before I agree to anything, I need to talk to my mom."
Hanako looked shocked for a second as if the thought of talking to his mom had never crossed her mind before she recovered and nodded. "That's fine, I can prove it to her too."
While Inko had always hoped that one day Izuku would bring a girl or boy home, as Izuku had grown older and had become more isolated from his peers, her hopes had been diminished. So when her son had brought home a girl Inko had been overjoyed. She had been so happy she had overlooked the girl's outfit.
Inko had been horrified when Izuku told her of how the girl had saved him from some awful villain. And the story that had been told afterwards had filled her with concern about the girl's mental state. Still the girl had saved her boy and that bought the girl some consideration. As did the creatures she called Prinnies that seemed to be entirely sentient and sapient.
Looking at the girl with a serious look on her face Inko asked "Let's say that I believe you, beyond these Prinnies how do you intend to prove your story? "
The girl, "Hanako" Inko reminded herself. Smiled and said "Simple" before she put one of her hands to her ear and said "Three for transport to base."
The last words Inko said before she, Izuku and Hanako disappeared from the face of the earth were "Wait? What?"
A/N:2 Congrats on making it to the end. Since the first note was so long I will keep this short. Kingdom Hearts: (Re) Destiny Is about 75 to 80 percent done. I hope to release it some time in the next month. It will be shorter then some of you are used to from me. But hey maybe that will help on the turnaround. After that will be Pokemon: The story of us and then IT'S HERO SLIME! (A bit off in terms of time but you have my word that the next chapter and the one to follow it will be EPIC.
Till next time.
