it was during Lunch and currently, Izuku was once again outside, swinging his sword. And once again, from the window, looking down on him from inside the building was none other than Ibara.
She glared at him. Glared as if he was some sort of Monster as if he was something so disgusting.
From behind her, Awase was watching her. He saw how she had looked at him, he knew her long enough to know when she hated something, and right now, he saw how much she hated, no, loathed Izuku's existence.
He could see why someone like her could hate someone with Izuku's behavior. However, while he could understand Ibara hated Izuku, but, Awase could tell there was a lot more to Izuku than this front he put on.
Awase moved closer to the window, "He's tough" Awase said "Despite him not having a Quirk, he's pretty damn strong and tough"
"Who cares," Ibara snarled "doesn't it matter how strong he is... He's doesn't belong here... Why would they let someone like him in here?"
Awase saw her ball her fist to the point that her nails dug into her hand.
He sighed, he knew what she meant when she referred to Izuku. He was sure that when Ibara saw Izuku, she saw him too.
Awase sighed, he wished that Ibara would get help to get over what he did to her, but for now, he just needed her to get away from the window. "Come on, Lunch period is almost done," Awase told her
Ibara looked down at the Izuku through the window for a little bit longer, the flames of hate were clear in her eyes. But she listened to Awase, and she turned away from the window and followed Awase to where ever he was going. She just needed to stop looking at him.
She hated him, but at the same time, she... she wanted him. She thought back to that tingling feeling in her stomach back during the Hero class. She remembered the look on Izuku's face, she remembered that while she was scared, she was more excited than anything! She remembered how she was turned on by his savage nature, she remembered the buckling of her legs, she remembered how she fell to her knees, she remembered her ragged breaths, she remembered how everything, at that moment, excited her... But the thing, no, the person that excited her the most... Was Izuku.
That pissed her off.
Becoming excited, being attracted, having any type of feelings for Izuku Midoriya... It. Was. A. Sin.
No one could like Izuku Midoriya in such a way. And god help any who did.

"Why on earth did you allow him into the school Nezu?"
at the same time, Vlad King, or Sekijiro Kan, was in Principle Nezu's office. Nezu was sitting at his desk looking up at the blood hero. They were talking, and the subject of it was, of course, Izuku Midoriya.
"What brought this up, Vlad?" Nezu asked
Kan huffed, "You're a smart mouse, you should know why I brought this up"
Nezu sighed, Vlad was right, Nezu already knew why Vlad brought up the concern about Izuku Midoriya and his behavior. He knew that eventually, concern for Izuku's behavior, would be brought up by some of the staff, and not just any of the staff, but not just by any staff members, but by those who were once a part of Oka's Class.
This could have been brought up by Midnight, Ectoplasm, or even 13... But he should have known it was Vlad that would be the one with the most concern. After all, he was one of the students to see what happened to Oka that fateful day. He was one of them too.
"Is this because of Oka-Sensai?" Nezu asked Vlad
Vlad nodded, "Of course, it is," Vlad said "I want to know why Nezu... Why accept someone like him and put him in my class?" Vlad asked
"Because of the fact that he reminds us of Oka..." Nezu said "Izuku is a lot like her, we know he's been through a lot, just like her, and the reason I put him in your class is that I believe you can save him... Just like you wanted to save her" Nezu told Vlad
"... Do you think I can do this?" Vlad asked "Do you really think I can save a person who has so much hate, so much anger, so much-" Vlad stopped himself from talking anymore
"Vlad..." Nezu began
"Nezu... I don't think I can" Vlad told Nezu "I can't help him..."
Nezu sighed as he looked at his desk and away from his old classmate. "You can't because you think you can't, or because you're afraid?" Nezu asked
Vlad didn't answer.
Nezu knew he hit it right on the spot. He was right. Vlad was afraid of failing with Izuku like they failed to stop Oka.
Vlad looked at Nezu with a sad expression on his face, "Nezu... Do you think he will turn out like Oka-Sensei?" Vlad asked him
Nezu looked up from his desk and looked at his old classmate, his face was expressionless. "Not if I can help it,"
"What can we do, Nezu?" Vlad asked, "how can we save him from suffering the same fate as Oka-Sensei?"
"By making sure he doesn't suffer as she did... By defeating his demons before he is put in a situation where he has to fight them"
"And if we fail?" Vlad asked
"We won't" Nezu stated
"But if we do... If we fail, what happens?"
"Then we aren't worthy of calling ourselves heroes," Nezu said
With that said, the bell rang and the two could hear students making their way back to their classes.
"I think you should head back to your class, after all, if I remember correctly, you and your class have to get ready to go to the USJ today, correct?" Nezu said
Vlad nodded, "yeah, some rescue training today for Hero class," Vlad said
"Well then, better not keep your students waiting, Vlad"
He nodded and Vlad headed to the door and opened it, he walked out and closed the door behind him.
Nezu watched him leave and as he did, he sighed heavily. It wasn't easy being the principal of UA, but it was the job he needed.
He looked at a photo on his desk. It was his class photo. Class 1-B. There he was, standing with a young Vlad, Ectoplasm, Midnight, and 13. He and they were surrounded by other classmates, who have been dead for a long time. Standing behind all of them, was their teacher, a hero called Ame-Onna.
Her real name was Oka Yaoyarozu...
'Don't worry Sensei... I promise I will not let Izuku become you' Nezu told himself
.
.
.
Currently, Izuku and the rest of the students of Class 1-B were on their way to the USJ. Not Universal Studios Japan, but as Nezu called it, "Unforeseen Simulation Joint". This little training exercise was some way to rescue civilians from natural disasters.
"So, are you guys excited about this?" He over heart Tetsutetsu ask
"I don't know... I mean what happens if we mess up?" asked Awase
"Ah, don't think like that Awase! It isn't manly to doubt yourself!" Tetsutetsu cried with excitement
Izuku just ignored the conversation, his mind wasn't worried about the training session. All he cared about was getting through this class, without pissing off Ibara. However, he was apparently failing at that because she had been giving him the death stare for the entire ride, he ignored her staring, but she wasn't the only one staring. When he looked up, he had caught Vlad looking at him a few times, though it wasn't hatred... it was something else.
However, he didn't have more time to think about it because the bus had stopped.
"Alright, everyone off!" Vlad Began "we're here,"
With those words, they all began to get off the bus, and once everyone was off, standing at the door was none other than Pro-Hero 13.
"Hello, students!" 13 greeted "It's good to meet you all, and welcome to the USJ!"
many students were glad to see another pro-hero training them, however, Izuku didn't share their enthusiasm, but he would admit to himself that he was surprised to see 13, as they were one of the Heroes you had been there after the Eclipse had ended.
After introducing themselves, 13 led the students into the USJ and as they all entered, the doors behind them closed and they looked at the facility, which was indeed very huge! Izuku now would indeed admit to himself that he was amazed by how large this place was.
'UA certainly goes big or goes home' He thought to himself
13 then turned to them all, "Here at the USJ you will be learning how to save lives and the proper way to conduct a search and rescue mission as a hero" 13 told them "Your powers are not meant to inflict harm. I hope you leave here today with the understanding that you're meant to help people more than just fighting villains" 13 told them
As 13 was explaining what they would be doing, Tetsutetsu looked past 13 and saw the center of the USJ and saw a black portal appear and open, only for many figures to exit the portal itself.
"Whoa! Hold up, you guys even got fake Villains!?" Tetsutetsu said
Hearing that, Vlad and 13 turned around quickly only to see the "Fake Villains" at the center of the USJ below the stairs and their eyes widened in disbelief, realizing what was truly happening, the two pros quickly went into action.
"EVERYONE! GET BEHIND ME AND 13! VILLAINS HAVE BREACHED THE USJ!" Vlad yelled at his students as he prepared to engage in a fight, he turned back to his fellow Hero, "13! Get them out of here! NOW!" Vlad cried
Most of the students followed 13 to the doors but when 13 reached the doors, they didn't budge open, much to the pro-heroes horror.
13 then quickly looked back to Vlad, "The doors aren't opening!" 13 cried
Meanwhile, Izuku looked down where the villains appeared and his good eye widened. Down below, was someone he had been looking for. He wore a long black shirt and black pants with red hightops, he had a bunch of hands holding onto his body and he also had one covering his face and his pale blue shaggy hair helped obscured it, but he knew who it was all too well.
Anger and hatred began to boil up inside of him, as the flashes of the Eclipse replayed inside of his mind. He gritted his teeth and without thinking, he unsheathed his sword and pushed past the other students and even past Vlad as he ran down the step.
"SSSHHHIIIGGGAAARRRAAAKKKIII!" Izuku roared with anger
"Izuku! Get back here!" Vlad cried as he tried to reach out to his student
Izuku didn't stop. He continued running down the stairs with fury in his eyes, his sword at the ready to strike any of those that got in his way.
"What the hell is this kid doing?" Asked one villain with a smile
"He must be insane!" Chuckled another, "Let's gut the brat!"
A few villains prepared to strike at Izuku, but he already landed right in front of them, his flowing black cloak waving behind him. The villains looked at the young teen as he landed, and when Izuku looked at them, he gave them a look of pure hatred and fury, it was a look of an animal with nothing else to lose. A few of the villains hesitated and Izuku used that to his advantage, as he swung his sword sideways, slicing 5 of the villain in half, killing them.
The villains that saw this stopped, as they were in shock at what just happened before their eyes.
"N-No way!"
"Did that...? Did that kid really kill them with one swing!?"
"Wh-What kind of Sword is that kid holding!?"
"A sword!? That thing's no sword!"
"That thing is too big to be called a sword! too big, too thick, and too heavy! It is more like a sharp-edged lump of iron!"
Izuku turned to the villains who had stopped in their shock and when he looked at them, they couldn't help but feel their fight or flight response kick in, and most of them had the gut feeling to run.
"Move," Izuku ordered "Or I'll cut through you all,"
"I'd like to see you try brat!" Cried one of the villains,
Izuku didn't hesitate as he charged at them and swung his sword upward, cutting one of them in half. From behind, two more villains appeared and were ready to attack Izuku with their quirks, however, neither had time to do anything with their quirks as Izuku quickly turned around, and with another swing, he cut their heads clean off.
"W-What the hell is wrong with this kid!?"
"He's no hero! He's a freaking monster!"
Meanwhile, on the other side of the crowd of villains, The Villain known as Shigaraki was with Kurogiri and a beast called a Nomu. He could see the carnage from where he stood, and better yet, he saw who it was that was creating this carnage.
"Kurogiri... did you see him?" Shigaraki asked
"I do, Young Shigaraki" Kurogiri responded
"Nomu, Kill him" Shigaraki ordered
Hearing that order, Nomu pushed past the other villains with blinding speed and charged at the green-haired teen. Nomu appeared right behind the young teen and raised his fist in the air, ready to bring it down atop the boy's head, as the fist came flying down, Izuku quickly turned around and used the sword to block the attack. Nomu hit the sword just as Izuku blocked the attack, the force made him skid backward. Izuku stopped skidding and slammed his sword into the ground as he looked at the Nomu.
The Nomu looked at him and lowered his fist and Izuku let his sword slam down into the ground and gave Nomu a wicked smile.
"You're a lot stronger than the others I fought before," Izuku said with a smile "Let's see if you die as easily as them!" Izuku said
Nomu charged at him and Izuku readied his sword to attack. Nomu raised his fist and swung at Izuku, but Izuku swung his sword upward and cut Nomu's hand in half, however, the hand quickly repaired itself and Nomu swung its other fist at Izuku, hitting him in the right arm and sending him back to the bottom of the steps. Izuku crashed into the steps hard, and he coughed up blood.
From the top of the steps, Tetsutetsu, Awase, Ibara, and the rest of the students watched in horror at Izuku's body as he crashed in the steps. However, Izuku slowly got up and gripped his sword looked at the Nomu, however, behind him, Kurogiri and Shigaraki appeared and Izuku's anger grew. Seeing Izuku get back up amazed the three students and even the two pro-heroes.
Shigaraki looked at Izuku and chuckled, "I'm surprised you survived Nomu's punch, not many could do that" Shigaraki told Izuku, "But it's been a long time, Izuku Midoriya"
Izuku spit blood out to the side as he still glared at Shigaraki, "Shigaraki,"
'They know each other?' Ibara thought from atop the steps, 'How do they know each other?'
"I have to admit, I'm surprised you're here, I thought we broke your spirit during the eclipse!" Shigaraki said, "But how are you? How's the eye? Oh! wait... How's that girl of yours?" Shigaraki asked with a chuckle
'Eclipse?' Ibara asked 'Does he mean... the Eclipse event?'
Izuku growled and his glare hardened as he stared at SHigaraki, Instead of replying to Shigaraki with words, Izuku charged at the villain with his sword raised, ready to bring it down on the villains head, but Nomu ran at him and pulled its fist back, ready to punch him back, but Izuku slashed downward, once again cutting him the Nomu's arm in half down the middle, but it quickly repaired itself, however, Izuku then quickly swung his blade again, this time cutting the Nomu across the chest. However, the regeneration quirk was faster and so the Nomu healed quickly. Izuku backed up, but with great speed, Nomu grabbed Izuku by the waist and then raised Izuku in the air before slamming him into the ground. Izuku cried in pain and spat out more blood as he was slammed into the ground.
Nomu then raised him again, but Izuku lifted his sword up and using the square tip of his sword, he brought the blade down right in the shoulder of the Nomu, cutting off the arm that was holding him as the Nomu stepped back. The severed arm that gripped Izuku loosened and Izuku got up quickly and looked at the one-armed Nomu, and the Nomu's arm quickly regrew, which angered Izuku, and his anger only grew when he heard the laughter of Shigaraki.
"Nomu is the ultimate boss! He was made to kill All-Might, a pathetic human like you can't hurt him!" Shigaraki cried
Izuku growled, but he charged at the Nomu once again, this time, Nomu swung widely at Izuku, Izuku dodged the attack by ducking under the blow, and Izuku used this to cut both of the feet off of the Nomu. The Nomu began to fall and Izuku quickly slashed upward, cutting the Nomu deeply, from its waist to its shoulder. However, The Nomu healed quickly again, and as it regenerated its wounds, it grabbed Izuku by his legs and raised him up, and slammed him behind him before raising him up again and slamming Izuku in front of him. Izuku spat out some blood and he now had a few cuts and dirt around his arms and face.
"HAHAHAHA! Yes! Good Nomu!" Shigaraki cackled, "See! There's no stopping Nomu! He feels no pain! He feels nothing! What can you do, huh!? What can a Quirkless and pathetic human such as yourself do against such odds!?"
Nomu healed completely and once again picked up Izuku by his legs and the young teen was held upside down, spitting out blood, Izuku then pulled out something from his back pouch and then dragged it across the cement, and then threw it to the side of the Nomu. It was one of his miniature bombs and it blow up right next to Nomu's face and right in front of Izuku. The eruption of the explosion blew up half of the Nomu's face and the pain caused Nomu to let go of Izuku as he was sent back quite a bit.
"Nomu! Get up! Kill him!" Shigaraki ordered
However, the Nomu was crying in pain, its hands hovered over the spot where half of his face and head were missing and it continued to scream in pain. Izuku picked up his sword and approached the Nomu and Izuku raised his sword up and then sliced one of its arms off, he then raised his sword once again and swung down, cutting the other arm off. Instead of regenerating its arms, the Nomu was still screaming from the pain of half its face being blown off.
Shigaraki growled in anger, "Why aren't you getting up!? KILL HIM NOMU!" Shigaraki cried
"Exposed brains are huge design flaws in these things" Izuku stated,
The young teen, now stood over the Nomu, and he smiled wickedly, as blood was still dripping from his cuts and the side of his mouth, he looked at the Nomu with his good eye, but then, he turned to look at Shigaraki.
"It's true about what you said Shigaraki, Humans are pathetic, and we are weak, and we die easily, but no matter how weak we are, no matter how much we're tortured or trampled, no matter how much pain we feel, we still want to live," Izuku told the villain, he then looked back down at the Nomu with a wicked grin, "How about you feel that pain,"
Izuku raised his sword and brought it down, he repeated this over and over again, as the Nomu still cried in pain. Izuku grinned wickedly, enjoying this as the blood of the Nomu sprayed on him. He did not look like a Hero right now he looked like a Villain.
As the screaming died down and Izuku delivered the final blow to the Nomu, which was slamming his sword down on the creature's brain, destroying it for good. Izuku, still smirking, turned to Shigaraki, raised his sword, and pointed to the villain. The young teen, charged at the villain, ready to kill him with a smile on his face.
'This is it! This is it!' Izuku told himself as he continued to charge
As he got closer to the villain, he was ready to cut Shigaraki in half, as well as Kurogiri should he get in the way, while Shigaraki and Kurogiri waited till he was in range to launch an attack by wither teleporting Shigaraki behind Izuku so that SHigaraki could kill the boy. However, before any of them could do anything, the doors of the USJ burst open, and standing there was All-Might, and for once, he wasn't smiling.
"NO! Not now!" Izuku cried
Kurogiri looked over to Shigaraki, "Young Shigaraki, we must leave! Without Nomu, All-Might will destroy us!" Kurogiri
Shigaraki groaned but he nodded, "Fine" Shigaraki replied
Kurogiri opened a portal for him and Shigaraki to escape, however, before they could, three throwing daggers were sent flying at them, and one missed but two hit their target. One stabbed right into Shigaraki's shoulder while another stabbed right into Shigaraki's ribs.
"Where is he!?" Izuku cried "Where is he, Shigaraki!? Where is Monoma!?" Izuku cried out with anger but also with desperation.
Shigaraki didn't answer as he cried out in pain as he fell through the portal and the two villains disappeared. Izuku tried to reach out to grab them to get the answers he needed but failed as the black mist completely disappeared
"NO! God Damnit! NOOOO!" Izuku cried in anger as he fell to the ground and slammed his fist on the ground.
With the appearance of All-Might and seeing what Izuku could do, most of the villains surrendered, while some still tried to fight, but were quickly knocked out by All-Might. The students were sent back to UA to be checked on and to be healed. Izuku was rushed there due to the damage he sustained.
Izuku had 3 broken ribs, bruises around his body and face, a few cuts on his face, and atop his head. Izuku was forced to lay in the cot as he was being taken back to UA in the ambulance. as he was loaded into the back of the ambulance vehicle, he heard Tetsutetsu and a few of his classmates asking the medics if he was ok, but he tried to ignore their worries, as he was now fully in the back of the ambulance and he looked at the roof of the car and his expression saddened as tears flowed from his eyes...

Whooo! the Black Bunny arc is over! Next is of course the "Golden Days" Arc! Let's see the true beginning of our story and how Izuku became the person he is now.
I actually wanted the USJ battle to go down similar to the fights between Gutz and the Count, but I also didn't want to be similar. This is why didn't reveal all the "God hand" members in this chapter, but they will be revealed later of course.
Anyway, in the chat chapter is the beginning of the "Golden Days" Arc, and then after we take a blast to the past, we'll be returning to the present and dive right into "The Conviction" Arc, which will be a combination of Berserk's Conviction Arc (minus the Lost children Arc) and My Hero Academia's Sports Festival and Stain Arc.
Anyway, I hoped you all enjoyed today's chapter and I hope you stick around!
